January will see the continuation of Niantic Community Day Classic Events in Pokémon GO. Community Day classics bring back a Pokémon from a previous Community Day and give them an added celebration where shiny variants become much more common than normal. These are different from regular Community Day events, as all of the Pokémon featured in Community Day Classics have already had a Community Day celebration in the past.
These returning celebrations give newer players a chance to nab the shiny versions they may not have found yet. The January 2023 Community Day Classic takes place on January 21, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time.
featured pokemon
This Community Day Classic will feature Larvitar. Larvitar’s shiny variant is highly sought after, as its evolution, Tyranitar, is a pseudo-legendary Pokémon. This means that his total stat rivals even some of the legendaries in the game.

featured attack
The featured attack of this Community Day Classic is Smack Down. It is a powerful rock-type fast attack that can deal heavy blows to enemies in trainer battles or gym/raid battles. To get this move, players need to evolve a Pupitar into a Tyranitar before 7:00 pm local time on the day of the event.

- Triple Capture XP
