Exciting Details About the May 2025 Community Day Featuring Pawmi in Pokémon GO
Pokémon GO continues to captivate players with an array of events and special content, and the upcoming May 2025 Community Day is no exception. On May 11, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time, Trainers around the globe will have the chance to encounter Pawmi, the adorable Mouse Pokémon native to the Paldea region. This event promises to be filled with unique bonuses, special research opportunities, and the excitement of potentially encountering a Shiny Pawmi for the first time.
Discovering Pawmi: What to Expect
During the May Community Day, Pawmi will appear more frequently in the wild, providing Trainers with ample opportunities to catch this charming Pokémon. Not only will you have the chance to add more Pawmi to your Pokédex, but if luck is on your side, you might also encounter a rare Shiny variant. This event marks a significant moment for Trainers as it allows them to experience the joy of capturing and evolving Pawmi.
One of the highlights of this Community Day is the opportunity to evolve Pawmo, the first evolution of Pawmi, into Pawmot. To do this, Trainers need to explore with Pawmo as their buddy for just one kilometer. This evolution can be completed anytime during the week following the event, culminating in a Pawmot that knows the Charged Attack, Brick Break.
Unique Event Bonuses to Enhance Your Experience
The May Community Day comes with a host of bonuses designed to enhance gameplay and make the event more rewarding. Here’s a breakdown of the limited-time bonuses that will be in effect:
Evolve with Ease: Trainers can evolve Pawmo into Pawmot after walking just 1 km with it as their buddy. This bonus is available until May 18, 2025, at 10:00 p.m. local time.
Egg Hatch Distance Reduction: Pokémon Eggs placed in Incubators during the event will require only 1/4 of the usual distance to hatch.

Timed Research: Keep the Fun Going
After the Community Day concludes, Trainers who log in during the event will receive access to a Timed Research task that lasts for a week. This research opportunity will award a Pawmi with a unique Might and Mastery-themed background upon completion.

For those looking to find other Trainers in their area, utilizing the Community Day map is a great way to discover local events and meetups. Community Ambassadors, who receive support from Niantic, often organize gatherings and activities, providing a perfect opportunity for players to come together and enjoy the game in a fun, social environment.
