Axew is breaking, crushing, and crashing its way through Pokémon GO’s June 2023 Community Day on June 10, 2023, from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. local time. During that time, this adorable Dragon type will be waddling around more frequently in the wild, and Trainers might even encounter a Shiny Axew—if they’re lucky!
If you evolve Fraxure—Axew’s Evolution—during the event or up to five hours afterward, you’ll get a Haxorus that knows the Charged Attack Breaking Swipe, a move that the Axe Jaw Pokémon was previously unable to learn. Haxorus can be a terrific choice for Raid Battle lineups, and the exciting addition of Breaking Swipe makes it well worth evolving Fraxure.

-
2× Candy for catching Pokémon

2× chance for Trainers level 31 and up to receive Candy XL from catching Pokémon

Hone your researching skills with the Community Day Special Research Story “Keeping Sharp,” which is available for US$1.00 (or the equivalent pricing tier in your local currency). And don’t forget that Trainers can purchase tickets for friends that they’ve reached a friendship level of Great Friends or higher with. To give the gift of research, simply tap the “Gift” button instead of the “Buy” button.
Bonus Raids
Make the most of the Community Day fun with four-star Raid Battles featuring Fraxure from 5:00 to 10:00 p.m. After a successful raid, more Axew will appear in the area for 30 minutes. These four-star raids can only be joined in person using Raid Passes and Premium Battle Passes.
Stay sharp this Community Day, Trainers!
