June 2021 Community Day

The June 2021 Community Day was the forty-second Community Day event, featuring Gible.

Featured Pokémon
Gible had increased spawn rates in the wild and from Incense or Lure Modules:

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

Exclusive move
In order to obtain Earth Power, Trainers had to evolve Gible into Garchomp 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
Just a Nibble is a Special Research campaign for Gible Community Day. It cost $1 to access the Special Research. The Garchomp in this research would know Earth Power if it was caught during event hours.

TRAINER! Excellent timing. I just made a tremendously exciting discovery! Earlier today, I was exploring a nearby cave to collect some samples when I noticed a peculiar warmth along one of the walls. Suddenly, something jumped out and tried to bite me! I quickly realized I had stumbled upon a nest of Gible, the Land Shark Pokémon. Gible is known to react to anything that moves, so sometimes it leaps out and chomps passersby. I know it just wanted a nibble, but that’s a nibble too much in my book! Anyway, it’s not every day you run into a gaggle of Gible. Do you think you could head out and do some research on their appearance here?

Welcome back, Trainer. While you were out tracking down the Land Shark Pokémon, I took a closer look at the cave I was telling you about earlier. I was reminded of an interesting tidbit about Gible. It nests inside small, horizontal holes in cave walls warmed by geothermal heat. Gible seems to love warm places, and that cave certainly fits the bill. We’ve learned a lot about this Dragon- and Ground-type Pokémon, but there’s always more to discover! When you’re ready, how about you try evolving your Gible into Gabite?

Nice job evolving your Gible into Gabite, TRAINER! Gabite is known as the Cave Pokémon, and it loves sparkly things. It emits ultrasonic waves from protrusions on either side of its head to probe pitch-dark caves. What a useful ability! Maybe it could help me avoid bumping into lab equipment in the middle of the night... We’ve seen Gible and Gabite, but there’s still one more Evolution we need to document. Come see me when you’ve evolved your Gabite, Trainer!

Ah! Fantastic work, TRAINER. That’s an admirable Garchomp! Known as the Mach Pokémon, its body is covered in fine scales that reduce drag, enabling it to fly at high speeds. Those scales don’t just reduce wind resistance—their sharp edges also cause injury to any opponent that touches them. Pretty spiffy, eh? I think you’ll find Garchomp to be a powerful companion on your adventures. And I can’t wait to see how your relationship develops along the way! Thanks for all your help today, Trainer. I hope you had a fin-tastic time! Now, let’s GO!
