Pokemon Go’s December Community Day event was held this past weekend, which means Niantic is already looking ahead to next month. Today, the developer announced plans for the first Community Day of 2023, which will see the Pokemon Chespin in the spotlight! The event will take place on Saturday January 7th starting at 2 p.m. local time and running until 5 p.m. local time. Shiny hunting is always one of the biggest highlights of Community Day, and the event will see the Pokemon Go debut of Shiny Chespin, which will be available for the first time in the game.
