Pokémon Go Community Day Brings Hydro Pump to Blastoise

We’ve almost reached the seventh Pokémon Community Day, with fans able to experience everything the event has on offer when it kicks off next week. During the event players will gain bonuses such as increased XP and Stardust, Lure Modules gaining extra time, and some unique Pokémon making an appearance. We’ve already talked about the confirmed appearance of some very popular Pokémon from the anime, with the return of the Squirtle Squad, but they aren’t the only cool new features coming with the event.

Confirmed today, the unique move coming with Squirtle for the Community Day event is Hydro Pump. This move can’t be TM’d so if you want to get your hands on a fully grown Blastoise with Hydro Pump, you’d better get ready to get your hands on a lot of Squirtles.

There are a lot of other cool features coming with the Community Day event, such as 3 hour lures and 1/4  Egg Distances, meaning that 10km eggs become 2.5km, 5km eggs become 1.25km, and 2km eggs become 0.5km.  The event itself will become available at the following times:

• Asia-Pacific region: July 8, 2018, from 12:00 P.M. to 3:00 P.M. JST (GMT +9)
• Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and India: July 8, 2018, from 10:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. UTC (GMT +0)
• The Americas and Greenland: July 8, 2018, from 11:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. PDT (GMT -7)
