It is checked against the post on Nov 13, 2026 at 01:12 UTC.

The post adds that “upcoming events are subject to change,” so treat every row as provisional until the event’s own announcement is out. Midweek events such as Spotlight Hours are not part of this list; our Spotlight Hour page tracks the next one.
Which Pokémon is December Community Day?
Nobody outside the Pokémon GO team knows yet, and the official post does not say. It lists no featured Pokémon, no bonuses and no move for any of the four Community Days. Fan sites will guess, but we are not printing guesses: this page will be updated with “Updated” notes once the official December announcement is live.
For timing, the previous event gives a pattern. The Pawniard Community Day announcement went up on Oct 21 for an event on Nov 21, about a month ahead, and its details were then updated on Oct 28 (official post). If December follows that rhythm, the December announcement should arrive soon, but that is our inference, not something Niantic has said.
What the pattern also tells you is what a Community Day looks like in practice. November’s ran from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. local time, with some bonuses lasting until 9:00 p.m. December’s is a two-day event, so its hours may differ. Our Pawniard Community Day guide shows what a full event post contains, including a UTC conversion table.
What “local time” means for these events
The save-the-date post gives calendar dates with no hours. Community Day announcements from the same team use local time: the event starts at the same clock time wherever you are, so it begins first in New Zealand and ends last in Hawaii. On a two-day event, check which local day an hour falls on if you play near midnight. We will add the exact hours here when they are published.
Weekend by weekend: every Saturday is taken
Read as a calendar, the list fills eleven Saturdays in a row, from Dec 5 to Feb 13:
- December: Max Battle Day (5th), Community Day (12-13), Raid Day (19), Hatch Day (26).
- January: Community Day Classic (2nd), Super Mega Raid Day (9th), Community Day (16th), Max Battle Day (23rd), Super Mega Raid Day (30th).
- February: Community Day (6th), Raid Day (13th).
There is no Saturday without an event, and Dec 12-13 is the only weekend where a Sunday is included. If you are travelling, plan around Dec 12-13 first, since it is the only two-day Community Day on the list.

How to get ready
- Block the dates now. Dec 12-13, Jan 2, Jan 16 and Feb 6 are the four Community Day dates. Hours will be announced separately.
- Watch the official news page for the December post. When it lands, check whether the team’s list names a new move, a special bonus window or a paid Special Research, as it did for November.
- Max Battle Day on Dec 5 comes first. If you want to know which Dynamax Pokémon exist so far, our Dynamax Pokémon list is kept up to date, and the Dynamax Trails guide covers the Nov 16-23 event. For the Monday schedule, see the Max Monday page.
- Everything else in November is in our November 2026 events calendar.
