Over the past year, the “Pokemon GO” community days have been one of the most popular and interesting events in the game. According to Game Revolution, the event was introduced by Developer Niantic as an opportunity for players in different parts of the world to meet up in their local parks, make new friends, share new ideas on how to battle and capture the creatures in the game.

Plus they could play the game together, thereby experiencing what it means to be a part of the “Pokemon GO” community.

In order to make the event more exciting, Developer Niantic offers bonuses such as double XP, three hours Lure Modules, a special pokemon with an exclusive move, faster egg hatching, and many more incentives.
