August 2022 Community Day

The August 2022 Community Day was the fifty-eigth Community Day event

Featured Pokémon


Alolan Geodude had increased spawn rates in the wild and from Incense or Lure Modules:

There were also five chances per day to be photobombed by Alolan Geodude:

Exclusive move
In order to obtain Rollout, Trainers had to evolve Alolan Graveler into Alolan Golem after the start of event and up to 2 hours after the end of event. Trainers cannot use TMs to obtain the attack.

Special Research
A Rocky Road is a Special Research campaign for Alolan Geodude Community Day. It cost $1 to access the Special Research. The Alolan Golem in this research would know Rollout if they were caught during event hours.

TRAINER! Wonderful to see you. You may know this already, but some Pokémon have different forms depending on the region they appear in, like Geodude. In most places, Geodude are described as being very similar to rocks—so much so that many Trainers mistake them for boulders. Uniquely, the Geodude found in Alola are Rock- and Electric-type, while the Geodude found in Kanto are Rock- and Ground-type. Fascinating, don't you think? You know, if you accidentally step on an Alolan Geodude, you'll hear a crunching sound and feel a shock ripple through your entire body. I'd read about this phenomenon some time ago, but I was, er, "lucky" enough to experience it myself earlier today. Suffice it to say it left me feeling electrified! Why don't you head out to find some Alolan Geodude for yourself? Just make sure to watch your step!, TRAINER?

Welcome back, TRAINER! I see you had no trouble finding Alolan Geodude. When Alolan Geodude evolves into Alolan Graveler, it becomes even more impressive. Alolan Graveler's food of choice is a mineral called dravite. After eating it, crystals form inside the Pokémon, rising to the surface in some parts of its body. Oh! And this fact's my favorite: When two Alolan Graveler clash, it fills the surrounding area with flashes of light and sound. People call it the "fireworks of the earth"! You know, I'd really like to see Alolan Graveler for myself. Think you can help me out, TRAINER?

Well done! That's a mighty Alolan Graveler you've got there. I'd love to see those "fireworks of the earth" for myself, but...maybe later. And much farther from my lab. In any case! While you were away, I continued with some field research of my own. I saw the most curious thing—an Alolan Geodude flying through the air! While I don't recommend you go hugging a Bewear anytime soon, there isn't any harm trying to meet one! Why don't you evolve Stufful, TRAINER? Can you do some research to help me understand what I sw?

Ah, you're back—and with an Alolan Golem! Alolan Golem are known to be grumpy and stubborn. If you upset them, they discharge electricity from the surface of their bodies and let out a growl that sounds like thunder. Between that and the penchant for launching Geodude in lieu of boulders, we'd best be careful around Alolan Golem. You have an incredible knack of befriending Pokémon, though, so I'm sure you'll be the best of pals in no time! Thanks for assisting me with my research today, TRAINER. It always "rocks" to have your help! Heh heh... See you next time!
