Every June, Pokemon GO features a Dragon-type Pokemon for that month's community day. As such, the featured Pokemon for June 2024 in Pokemon GO is none other than Goomy! From event bonuses to medals you can grind, here is our Pokemon GO Goomy Community Day Guide made just for you!

Goomy Community Day: June 9, 2024

Goomy, alongside the rest of its evolutionary line featuring Sliggoo and Goodra, first debuted in the Kalos region during the sixth generation of the main series games. It also has Hisuian forms for its two evolutions which debuted in Pokemon Legends: Arceus

The June 2024 Goomy Community Day is set to happen on June 9, 2024, Sunday, from 2 PM to 5 PM local time.

In Pokemon GO, Goomy evolves into Sliggoo using 25 Goomy candies. It then further evolves into Goodra using 100 Goomy candies.

For this event, evolving Sliggoo during the Goomy Community Day results in a Goodra that knows the charged move Thunder Punch. Players can still evolve Sliggoo into Goodra who knows the move Thunder Punch for five more hours past the conclusion of the event.

Goomy Community Day Bonuses

Next on this Pokemon GO Goomy Community Day Guide are the in-game bonuses. Just as with every community day, here is a list of in-game bonuses players can expect to be active during the Goomy Community Day:

  • One additional Special Trade can be made for a maximum of three for the day (active on the day of the event from 2 PM to 10 PM local time)
  • Trades will require 50% less Stardust (active on the day of the event from 2 PM to 10 PM local time)

Other Bonuses During Goomy Community Day

During the event, Goomy Community Day–themed Field Research tasks that require you to catch Goomy are available for players to get after spinning PokeStops. The rewards given by those Field Research tasks range from additional encounters with Goomy, Stardust, Great Balls, and more.

There will also be a timed research that will be available for players during the Goomy Community Day. The Goomy Community Day Timed Research gives out one Rainy Lure module. It will be accessible and only be available between 2 PM and 10 PM local time.

On another note, players can also choose to complete four-star Raids against Sliggoo from 5 PM to 10 PM local time for more Goomy encounters past the three-hour community day event. After completing Sliggoo raids, additional Goomy will appear around the gym that hosted the raid for 30 minutes with the same community day shiny rates.

Lastly, consider mega evolving a Dragon-type Pokemon like Mega Rayquaza, Mega Garchomp, and Mega Sceptile or Mega Salamence for the additional catch candy bonus.
