Latest Pokemon GO teaser confirms May '25 Community Day predictions

The latest Pokémon GO teaser confirmed the predictions for the May '25 Community Day. In a video released on X with the hashtag #PokemonGOCommunityDay, we can see the ears of the Generation IX Electric-type Pokémon Pawmi peeking out from real-world foliage. This confirms that Pawmi will be the focus of the May '25 Community Day.

Pawmi is part of a three-stage evolutionary line. It evolves into Pawmo with 25 Candy and gains a partial Fighting-type as well. Pawmo evolves into Pawmot when given 100 Candy after walking with it as the player's Buddy for 25 km.

Pokémon GO May '25 Community Day was predicted by fans

Redditor u/dnlcrd had noticed that the German Instagram account for Pokémon GO had posted a picture of Pawmo with several German Pokémon GO players in the real world. The caption mentioned Pokémon GO Community Day, which most commentators took as a sign, predicting that Pawmi was getting a Community Day in May 2025.

When voicing their thoughts about the announcement, most in the community hoped that the 25km walking distance needed to evolve Pawmo into Pawmot would be changed. This view was shared by @Realrockenmon on X, who wrote:

"Do us the favor and remove the walking requirement on this thing just for the cday and maybe the 6 days after :p"

@MrFrischi also expressed a similar sentiment on X

On Reddit, u/ExtraThiccPam wanted the walking requirement to be changed to a catching one.

"I hope they change the walk 25 km evolution requirement to catch 10 electric types for example"

On X, @96_TomL noted that while getting a Shiny Pawmi would be a win for most players, those who celebrate Mother's Day might be unlucky and miss out

"So a new shiny & a relatively new pokemon is a big win for us but for those of us who Celebrate Mothers Day on May 11, we will miss out"

And some players like @MilkandGlitter on X were disappointed at the choice of mon for Community Day

"Still need Pawniard, Larvesta, Zorua, Honedge, Rockruff, Jangmo-o, Toxel, Applin, Sinistea, Hatenna, Impidimp, Cufant, Dreepy, Charcadet, Tinkatink, Girafarig, Dunsparce, Frigibax and Gimmighoul. But instead did the pikaclone"
