According to the post, classic Gen 1 Fire Pokemon Vulpix will appear as the main spotlight Pokemon of the February Community Day, alongside its Ice-type Alolan variant. Each Pokemon will boast special moves only available when evolving a Vulpix into Ninetales during the event, with the Kanto Ninetales receiving the Energy Ball Charged Attack and Alolan Ninetales knowing Chilling Water. The post does not reveal when <em>Pokemon GO<\/em>&#8216;s February Community Day will be held, though recent regular Community Day events have largely skewed towards the middle to end of the month.<\/p>\n<p>Vulpix&#8217;s appearance in February&#8217;s Community Day will mark the first time the beloved Gen 1 Pokemon has received its own Community Day. Much like other Community Days, the event is expected to offer longer durations for spawn-increasing items like Incense and Lure Modules. The inclusion of both Kanto and Alolan Vulpix will also be a major boon for fans, with boosted <em>Pokemon GO<\/em> Shiny rates for both versions of the classic creature. Vulpix was previously included in an official poll to receive a Community Day in February 2020, though it would ultimately lose out to fellow Gen 1 Pokemon Rhyhorn.<\/p>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape mobile-optimized\">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\" style=\"padding-bottom:50%\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg\" data-modal-id=\"single-image-modal\" data-modal-container-id=\"single-image-modal-container\" data-img-caption=\"&quot;&quot;\">\n                                                                                            <picture><source media=\"(max-width: 480px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=500&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=500&amp;dpr=2\"\/><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=800&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=800&amp;dpr=2\"\/><source media=\"(max-width: 1023px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=2\"\/><img width=\"1650\" height=\"826\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"pre-evolution-vulpix-pokemon-fan-art\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/vulpix-pokemon.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=2\"\/>\n        <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h3 id=\"pokemon-go-may-have-big-plans-for-pokemon-39-s-30th-anniversary\">\n            Pokemon GO May Have Big Plans for Pokemon&#8217;s 30th Anniversary<br \/>\n    <\/h3>\n<p><em>Pokemon GO<\/em> looks to have lots more on the table for fans throughout 2026, as the game will likely join in on the franchise&#8217;s 30th anniversary festivities.
