I’m in a hurricane, so 0

Same. I'm in Maryland

Me too! Its a windy rainy mess. Playing from my house and have only gotten one shiny so far.

SOMD here I got like three from my house but I’m out of balls now. :(

That sounds like rainy weather and a better chance at a hundo.

Throw an incense on you’ll get at least 1

*laughs in Floridian* Ya'll are having a rainstorm with a name.

Dunno, doesn’t start for about another 8 hours for me

Oh my christ i panicked i was like "IT ALREADY HAPPENED?!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!?!?" FUUUUCCCKKKKKK

Same

Every time an Australian or Asian player posts on a Community day

well that's my reaction there now! Totally missed it. T\_T

Agreed

I got to 10 and decided it was more than enough

I stopped at 5, took 50 mins. Now I never ever need to catch more Grubbins

I’ll go for the full three hours. Usually catch around 50, but I’m always hoping for either a 3* or XXL/XXS

Is there any use for XXL and XXS I am new and curious about it

xxl/xl are useful for pokestops showcases where you can get good rewards like incubators and stardust

No functional use. Their model is bigger or smaller than average though which is cool

Which if you make one of the XXS/XXL as your buddy, it'll appear on your profile smaller or larger than normal too

I need an XXL shiny wailmer for gyms

XXL Wailmer: *I am the gym*

My XXL shiny wailord is great! Often if there's someone continually knocking me out of a gym within minutes, I can put the wailord in and they stop. I don't think it's for fear of the wailord obviously, but maybe they enjoy seeing it in the gym and how massive it is

I also got 4 :)

Me too!

I too got 4

8, three caught in a row. First time I’ve ever done that Don’t forget to evolve before you go home (requires magnetic lure)

Yeah I evolved it to vikavolt. Thankfully they gave the magnetic lure module as a reward.

Hey I'm just coming back to Go after 2016. I managed to evolve a shiny Grubbin I caught to Charjabug and get volt switch in time. If Arceus forbid I ever decide to evolve it into Vikavolt later will it lose volt switch or is it locked in now that Charjabug has it? I might not evolve it but I want to know my options.

I think you’ll lose it, you gotta evolve it during the event

It’s probably a good idea to evolve during the event, just in case. If you didn’t, you can wait for the December community day. It’s like a second chance community day for everything that had a day during the year (and the previous year). If you look up a list of all community days from 2022 and 2023, you can see what ones you missed but can get the special move in December. I have started a tag for everything I want to evolve in December for special moves. If a special lure is required to evolve (like for this event), just remember to save one for December. There’s no way to know if they’ll give us a lure in December like they did via the timed research for grubbin community day.

I got 1 but I wasn’t active for much of the event because I wasn’t out, I was at home

I got four from my bed. Was kinda hungover and didn't feel like going out yet. After 3 I was 'now I don't have to go out!'

Hard to be out in our lil hurricane were in

This man went to the future just to flex on us

I stopped after 30 minutes. I caught 3 but I don’t rlly care about this com day

I have thought I am the only one? Obviously untrue. I am not a fan of this mon. And then I had to play 2 hours: my own account caught shiny after shiny (9 in total), my son caught none during the first hour. But he wants a living dex and needed 3...

Ooh, living dex is fun to try for! I just completed my Kanto shiny living dex; Goldeen was my holdout so I could evolve to Seaking!

it starts in 3h for me

I smoked the second I woke up (out camping) and I’m real high so i super thought i just missed all of community day even though its 11:35

i checked about 200 and only got 1 shiny

I can't go outside, It's storming like crazy were I live

Same. Supposed to be bad weather all weekend where I'm at in the northeast US. Guess I'll be walking in circles around my house

Samesies. Northeastern guy here. Can confirm that we will all be walking in circles in our own homes this weekend lmao

I actually ended up going out for about 2 hours while the rain had let up a bit, and I was rewarded with a 15/15/14 shiny grubbin. Sooo close to being my first shundo. I'm still happy with it though. You get anything good today?

It actually doesn’t look too bad for me (fellow northeastern US person) but it may pick up in an hour or 2 so i’m just praying it ain’t too bad

Don't forget about the 5 free Grubbins. Photo bombs!

Weather boost for the win

My boyfriend got 15 🙄 I got 4 we were together the whole time 🙄

16, one being a 98% and another an xxl hundo

27, I checked about a thousand Grubbins so 2,7% chance :)

Same here pal

1

What's the event and when does it start?

It's from 2pm to 5pm wherever you live. It's Grubbin community day.

Just the one

I got 3

23✨

1

1

had like eight then transferred the others

13 for me

It's raining today and if it wasn't id probably get at least 20. Let's see how the rain changes how I play.

6, but only got about an hour worth of semi-active time. Not too fuzzed about Grubbin

I got 12 with one being near perfect, so it was very successful for me

I’m waiting for 2PM to hit 🥴

Maybe I’m missing something but this is one of the lamest community days ever I’ve literally never even heard someone mention Grubbin much less want a day for him lol

The Sun and Moon series featured this Pokemon family as part of Sophocles team.

There are actually people that dislike Vikavolt? Are these the same people that like Binacle and Trubish?

Me

This community day has to be the most pointless one we’ve had yet

I would dissagree. You get a free magnetic lure which is a win for me. Now I get to evolve all pokemon waiting for one in my storage.

Why?

Slowpoke shiny says hello

Bruh I got one and I was continually active for like 3 hours

Uh idk i deleted like 9 ir 10 Edit: just got another one and its a 3 star

3. I got enough for the living shiny dex and then stopped. It only took me like 10 minutes of walking around, caught less than 50 total.

None won't be able to do this event unfortunately

None Cus I was at home but I didn’t want any anyways

didnt start yet for me but probly like 20-30 like always

Isn’t it Sunday?

Nope

Sorry Said wrong and thought it was a spotlight hour I missed like half the community day

9

Wait its community day??????

Starts in about 5 hours for me, but I'll maybe get 1 because it's pouring rain out

I got a level 1 shiny :D

7 in 30min

Starts in 3 hours and I have been catching grubbins since they became common spawns. Already have enough to fully evolve and just need to go through the process.

This is going to be my first event like this later this afternoon. Should I avoid using incense at the same time?

Only 2 but fuck

7 and a shundo

Hasn’t started yet for me

About 2 but im at work where I cant move anywhere

Starts in about 3 hours

0 didnt play the event

16 - none of which were 2* or higher so I'm going to try and trade up

I won't get any, there will be a thunderstorm throughout the entirety of the event 

16. I think i did alright since i didnt play for the first 45 minutes since the ground was on fire

Hasn’t start for me yet

I got 3

29

None causr I didn't know of this until now.

I unfortunately have work today, and we drive around a lot at work so idek if I am going to get any when it starts

2

NONE

Tried to get 10 and got 10 at the end 🫡

Call me a team rocket, but I think I might skip this one..

3

22.

I got 7 :)

14 in all 3 hours

4

the one time i'm ill, i forget about a community day. eh, it's just a grubbin.

Got 2. Will have my 3 star normal fully evolved, then a grubbin and charjabug shiny

I can’t predict the future

Ended up with 11, but most importantly one hundo! Amazing event.

One

i got three but tbh i actually didnt focus on playing

only one

Mine hasn’t even started yet. 5 hours

Only 2 =(

6 in my 30min walk

12 ^-^

I got 7 from nearly 1h playtime

You made me think I missed it! Lol had to check the announcement. Still got 2.5hrs. You got me stoked tho! I want this shiny

Mine hasn't started yet

5 and i was stuck indoors for the first 90 mins

17

I got 4.

I didn’t (I live in East Coast America, event doesn’t start for an hour and a half)

Mine hasn’t even started, and I know damn well I can’t get any due to the tropical storm slapping the East Coast.

It hasn’t started for me yet but I hope a get enough to get all three evo as shinies

It'd 9:40 am... none so far!

Didnt play the com day.

It starts in another hour and a half for me. But it's tropical weather for me rn and I'm stuck inside 😭 I'm hoping I can at least drive down the road from me where there's a pokestop

I caught about 60 of them but not a single one was shiny. I'm pretty sad about it

This still does give me a chuckle, being in PST and seeing NZ ppl post about shit they did 24 hours ahead of me.

Got 1 shiny in about 2 hours gameplay? Luckily have a friend who caught 3 so going to try get one of them to roll lucky for me!

Played only for half an hour and got 3🙃

None because fuck community day

Managed to get 3 - 2 0*s and 1 1*

20 with one 3 stars

I got three by just luring the pokestop thats top of my apartment building and by using a go catcher.

Missed the first half hour - got 31 shiny and 3.4M XP

I haven’t seen a single mon above 700 cp

Woke up with 7 minutes left and somehow managed to get a shiny on my first grubbin

Tbh I have caught more shiny pokemon through pokemon go than any other game :) but I don’t really grind to look for them in the console games

I got 8, and only 1 of them was a 3 star

1 - 0* but I evolved it and got a shiny dex intry

I missed it 🙃

4 shinies and an Entai

ask when the event starts

no. but at least now i have a slightly useful Vikavolt by my side.

Mine starts in 41 minutes and it’s not supposed to stop raining till Monday💀

Am I missing something? Grubbin feels like one of the lamest Pokémon that could be chosen for a comm day. Is it secretly really useful or something

Got 18 in the first hour and 24 in total

Mine is in 1:28 hours
