The Beldum Community Day Classic on August 18, 2024, is one of Pokemon GO's most anticipated events. This is thanks to how amazing the Pocket Monster's final evolution, Metagross, is across the franchise. This occasion gives trainers the perfect opportunity to get their hands on this beloved Pseudo-Legendary from Hoenn.

With the Beldum Community Day Classic on the near horizon, many players will want to know how they should prepare for the event so that they can make the most of its benefits.

There is a surprising amount of content for players to sink their teeth into, so here is everything trainers need to know about preparing for the upcoming Beldum Community Day Classic in Pokemon GO.

Of course, the most important item players will want to stock up on before the Bledum Community Day Classic in Pokemon GO gets here is Poke Balls. These items are crucial for catching any kind of Pocket Monster. With so many rare Beldums to catch, running out of them would be incredibly unfortunate.

Poke Balls and their better variants can be acquired in mass quantities from spinning Pokestops. They can also be purchased from the store in exchange for Pokecoins.

Additionally, Beldum is a rare Pokemon, meaning it will have a very low catch rate. Razz Berries are a frequently used item that can increase the odds of catching a creature in the game. They can be obtained by spinning Pokestops or leveling up one's profile. Better golden variants can be earned from Raid Battles and Research Breakthroughs.

As is tradition with Community Day events, the chances of finding a Beldum in its shiny variant during this event will be drastically increased. Players can further help their hunt for a shiny Beldum by using items like Incenses and Lure Modules, which have received bonuses to their lifespans.


What content will be available during Pokemon GO's Beldum Community Day Classic?

In addition to an increase in the Beldum spawn rates, players will also have the choice of purchasing a Special Research Ticket for $1 USD. This questline will ultimately grant trainers an encounter with Metagross, Beldum's final evolution, who will have the event-exclusive move, Meteor Mash, a Steel-type Charged Attack.

Additionally, event-themed field research tasks and Pokestop Showcases will be available during the event. This content gives casual players a fun way to engage in the festivities while still earning rewards they might be interested in. Aside from that, various event bundles will be available in the shop.

Unlike regular Community Day events, there will not be any special Four-Star Raids taking place during the Beldum Community Day Classic event.
