Summary
Pokemon GOrecently teased that Pawmi will likely be featured during May’s Community Day.Pokemon GOplayers will have increased chances of capturing Pawmi during a few hours of a single day in May, including shiny versions, so fans should be prepared to make the most of the opportunity.
ThePokemon GOCommunity Day is a traditional monthly event which always features a different monster. In April, thePokemon GOCommunity Day featured Vanillite. The event took place on April 27, and gamers had more chances to encounter the Ice-type Gen 5 critter in the wilds during a small three-hour window. However, reactions on social media were mixed, as Vanillite is far from a beloved Pokemon due to its somewhat uninspired design.
Now,Pokemon GOhas teased the next Community Day with a short video, which only shows the orange ears of a creature hidden in the grass. Most fans have already identified the creature as Pawmi, an Electric-type monster introduced in Gen 9. While the event has not been officially announced yet, it was already revealed that thePokemon GOCommunity Day will happen on May 11, which will be followed by a Community Day Classic on May 24. Pawmi was originally added toPokemon GOback in 2023, at the start of the Ultra Unlock: Paldea event. Fortunately for fans, Pawmi is a fairly popular critter, and this could be an exciting opportunity to catch a shiny version of it.

So far, 2025 has been a year of big changes forPokemon GO. Perhaps the most surprising wasScopely’s purchase ofPokemon GOalong with Niantic’s other games for $3.5 billion back in March. During the acquisition, Scopely stated thatPokemon GOwould not be negatively impacted by the change, with future patches and support still set to continue.
