September 2021 Community Day

The September 2021 Community Day was the forty-fifth Community Day event, featuring Oshawott. .

Featured Pokémon
These Shiny Pokémon were released with the start of the event: PS Oshawott PS Dewott PS Samurott

Oshawott had increased spawn rates in the wild and from Incense or Rainy Lure Modules:

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

Exclusive move
In order to obtain Hydro Cannon, Trainers had to evolve Dewott into Samurott after the start of event and up to 2 hours after the end of event. Trainers cannot use TMs to obtain the attack.

Field Research event tasks
There were several Field Research tasks exclusively for the duration of the event.

Special Research
From Scalchops to Seamitars is a Special Research campaign for Oshawott Community Day. It cost $1 to access the Special Research. The Samurott in this research would know Hydro Cannon if it was caught during event hours.

Hey there, TRAINER! I'm hoping you can help me with something. You see, I was out for a walk recently and noticed several trees covered in slash marks—and I think I know what made them. There's a Pokémon called Oshawott—the Sea Otter Pokémon—that keeps a scalchop on its stomach that it can detach and use as a blade. I've seen a lot of Oshawott around lately, so I'm thinking they may be our mystery tree carvers. Could you catch some Oshawott so we can learn more about them?

Welcome back, TRAINER! Did you know that Oshawott uses the scalchop on its stomach not only to fight but also to break open hard berries? Gotta love a good multitool. Now that we've learned more about Oshawott, I was hoping we could turn our attention to its Evolution, Dewott. Don't let it's cute appearance fool you—Dewott takes itself very seriously. Also known as the Discipline Pokémon, Dewott uses strict training to learn its flowing double-scalchop technique. I'd love to see Dewott's fighting in action! Can you evolve your Oshawott for me, Trainer?

Wow, Dewott's double-scalchop technique is incredible! Pokémon truly never cease to amaze, eh, TRAINER? I barely have the coordination to rub my tummy and pat my head at the same time, and here we have Pokémon mastering bespoke battle techniques. It's inspiring stuff! I think I've gained a better understanding of Dewott—which means we an begin studying its Evolution. Dewott's Evolution, Samurott, is known to wield swords called seamitars incorporated in its armor. Apparently, Samurott can draw and sheathe its seamitars in the time it takes a foe to blink. Not hard to see why it's known as the Formidable Pokémon! Why don't you evolve Dewott so we an witness Samurott's majesty for ourselves?

Excellent work, Trainer! That's a fine Samurott. Its seamitars truly are a sight to behold! Knowing how quickly it can draw and sheathe its blades, I wonder how fast it can dice up berries... Thanks for all your help today, TRAINER. We've learned so much about Oshawott, Dewott, and Samurott—and from them, too! I'll "sea" you next time! Haha!
