Pokemon Go February 2020 Community Day: Start Times, Shiny Rhyhorn, And More
By ESR on 20 februarie 2020
February’s been a busy month for Pokemon Go, but there are still a couple of events lined up for the game before the month comes to an end. On top of the upcoming Pokemon Day event, there’s February’s Community Day, which takes place this Saturday, February 22.
Community Days typically only run for three hours, but the specifics of each event–such as what Pokemon you’re more likely to find–vary month by month. To help you get ready for this month’s event, we’ve rounded up everything you need to know about February’s Community Day below.

What Is February’s Featured Pokemon?
Each Community Day event revolves around one “featured” Pokemon, which will appear more frequently throughout the event. While Niantic usually chooses the featured Pokemon each month, this time the developer gave players the chance to vote on February’s featured Pokemon, and the winner was Rhyhorn.
Throughout this month’s Community Day, you’ll be more likely to find Rhyhorn in the wild and in Raid Battles. On top of that, you’ll have your first chance to encounter a Shiny Rhyhorn during the event. These will appear in the wild rarely, but you should be able to find some with a little persistence.
What Is February’s Community Day Move?
In addition to increased Pokemon spawns, each Community Day offers the chance to snag an event-exclusive move. If you can evolve the featured Pokemon into its final form by the end of the event, it’ll automatically know an attack that it otherwise couldn’t learn in Pokemon Go.
This month’s Community Day move is Rock Wrecker, a powerful Rock-type Charged attack. If you can evolve Rhydon–Rhyhorn’s evolved form–into Rhyperior up to two hours after the Community Day ends, it’ll know Rock Wrecker as one of its attacks. This applies to any Rhydon you evolve during the designated time frame, even if you caught them prior to the Community Day.
Just as last month, February’s Community Day will take place at different times depending on where you live. In the Northern Hemisphere, the event will run from 11 AM to 2 PM local time; in the Southern Hemisphere, the Community Day takes place from 3 PM to 6 PM local time. This means players in the Northern Hemisphere will have until 4 PM local time to get a Rhyperior with Rock Wrecker, while those in the Southern Hemisphere will have until 8 PM local time.
