Stardust is used to power up Pokémon in conjunction with candy. When players catch Pokémon during the event, the amount of Stardust earned will be tripled. Incense will last for three hours instead of the usual one to give trainers much more time to catch Pokémon. We'll update this section with the tasks when it goes live. Magikarp needs 400 candy to evolve, so completing these tasks will help. While the rewards are not yet known, Niantic teased that trainers will be rewarded with Magikarp Candy to help them evolve their Water-type Pokémon into Gyarados. This Community Day event will give trainers exclusive tasks to complete. Gyarados with Aqua Tail can make a splash in the Pokémon Go Battle League. This powerful Water-type attack will give Gyarados a charge move that fills up faster than Hydro Pump. Red Gyarados is one of the most iconic Shiny Pokémon in the franchise, and the first to be introduced back in Gold and Silver in 1999.Įvolving a Magikarp up to two hours after the Community Day event ends will allow Gyarados to learn the exclusive move Aqua Tail. And when it evolves into Gyarados, the blue water serpent becomes a bright red. Shiny Magikarp changes from its normal red coloring to gold.

With the increased rate of finding a Shiny Magikarp, Pokémon Go trainers will likely be able to catch this rare form. The Pokémon Go Magikarp Community Day starts Saturday, August 8 from 11 a.m. POKEMON GO MAGIKARP COMMUNITY DAY START TIME
