Pokémon GO’s first Community Day of 2025 will be filled with adorable cat-itude. Sprigatito, the Grass Cat Pokémon originally discovered in Paldea, saunters into the spotlight on January 5, 2025, from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. local time. As always, the featured Pokémon will appear more frequently in the wild with lucky Trainers potentially encountering a Shiny Sprigatito. And Trainers that evolve Floragato—Sprigatito’s Evolution—into Meowscarada during the event or up to five hours afterward will have a Meowscarada that knows the Charged Attack Frenzy Plant. Flower power is a continuing theme throughout the event, as starting with this event Meowscarada will now be able to learn the Charged Attack Flower Trick.
The following event bonuses will have you feeling feline.
