How to prepare for the Pokemon GO Goomy Community Day event

With the 3x Stardust bonus, the Goomy Community Day will give you a lot of Stardust for catching Pokemon when you activate a Star Piece. The event bonus, paired with the Star Piece bonus, will give you a 4.5x Stardust bonus for every Pocket Monster you catch. This means you will get 450 Stardust for every Goomy catch.

You can use Origin Dialga's Roar of Time Adventure Effect to freeze the timer on the Star Piece. This way, you will not waste too many premium items while playing.

You can also use Incense to improve the flow of Pokemon. The more Pocket Monsters you catch, the more Stardust you will earn from the Community Day event bonus.

The Slumbering Sands event in Pokemon GO will be active during the Community Day. So, using a Lucky Egg will help you improve the 1.5x Catch XP bonus the Slumbering Sands event offers.

If you haven't evolved your Poipole into Naganadel, it is advisable to make Poipole your Buddy Pokemon to complete the task needed for its evolution (Catch 20 Dragon-type Pokemon with Poipole as your Buddy).
