Pokémon GO event types, explained
Most events run on local time — the same clock time in every time zone — so a 3-hour event is live somewhere for about 28 hours. A few, like GO Battle League seasons, switch at one global moment.
- Community Day
- One featured Pokémon spawns everywhere for three hours with a much higher shiny rate. Evolve it during the event for an exclusive move. Local time — fly west to play it again.
- Raid Day
- One boss takes over almost every Gym for a few hours, often with extra free Raid Passes and better shiny odds. Local time.
- Raid Battles
- The current 5-star, Mega or Shadow raid bosses. They rotate every week or two; any Gym can host them at any time.
- Raid Hour
- Every Wednesday, 6–7 PM local time: the featured 5-star boss appears at nearly every Gym. Best time to raid in a big city.
- Spotlight Hour
- A weekly one-hour event, usually in the evening local time: one Pokémon spawns everywhere, with a bonus such as 2× catch Stardust or XP.
- Max Monday
- Every Monday, most of the day local time: a featured Dynamax Pokémon appears at most Power Spots.
- GO Battle League
- PvP league rotations. These change at one global moment, so flying to another time zone doesn’t help here.
- Event
- Themed limited-time events with special spawns, research and bonuses. Most run on local time.
Local-time events run at the same clock time in every time zone — play it once, then fly to a later time zone and play again.
