Niantic has released details about the Pokémon GO February Community Day event. This time, the Pokémon that gets the spotlight is the sneaky one. Noibat. This Pokemon is extremely hard to find in the wild unless players are out after sundown. This Community Day is already being well received by fans due to the popularity of Noibat in the game.
featured pokemon
Noibat, the Sound Wave Pokémon, will be the featured Pokémon for February’s Community Day. Noibat’s glowing form is one of the most sought after in the series due to its distinctive color change. The bright variant takes Noibat’s purple color and transitions to a teal-blue palette. The image above shows players what to look out for and what to expect during this Community Day.

Other Community Day Features
This Community Day, like most recently, will feature a Raid celebration after the event. Blue Raid Eggs can be found at most gyms and players can take on additional Noibat in combat to try and get even more glows.
Players can also purchase an Event Ticket for $1.00 USD (or the equivalent in your local currency). The ticket will grant access to some special research tasks and additional Noibat encounters. This has become standard for most Community Day events and is really only worthwhile if players want additional encounters of the featured Pokémon.
