Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/em><\/a> is having a Jangmo-o Community Day<\/strong> event on June 21 from 2-5 p.m. <\/strong>in your local time.<\/p>\n

As expected with a Community Day event, Jangmo-o will spawn in huge numbers with a high chance to appear shiny. There are also several other bonuses and perks, which we\u2019ve list out below.<\/p>\n

\n

How do I catch a shiny Jangmo-o in Pok\u00e9mon Go?<\/h2>\n

As per old research by the now-defunct website The Silph Road (via Wayback Machine<\/a>), Shiny rates on Community Days are about 1 in 24, which means that if you keep playing throughout the three-hour window, you should find quite a few shiny Pok\u00e9mon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re short on time or Pok\u00e9 Balls, you can pop an Incense, then quickly tap each Jangmo-o to check for shiny ones, running from any that aren\u2019t shiny. Notably, any Jangmo-o you\u2019ve already tapped will face where your player is standing, so that should help identify which ones you may have already checked.<\/p>\n

\n

What Community Day move does Jangmo-o\u2019s evolution learn?<\/h2>\n

If you evolve Hakamo-o into Kommo-o from June 21 at 2 p.m. until June 28 at 10 p.m. in your local time, it will learn the charged move Clanging Scales.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you miss out on evolving it during this period, you will likely be able to evolve it during a Community Day weekend event in December to get Clanging Scales. If you don\u2019t want to wait, you can use an Elite TM<\/a> to get the move.<\/p>\n

\n

How does Kommo-o do in the meta<\/h2>\n

For PvE (raids and gyms), you\u2019re better off using literally any of the other dragon-types. Kommo-o is a little disappointing stat-wise when compared to its pseudo-legendary dragon brethren, so stick to those (Garchomp, Salamence, Dragonite) or the actual Legendary dragons (Rayquaza, Black Kyurem, Origin Forme Palkia) instead.<\/p>\n

In terms of PvP, Clanging Scales is actually pretty powerful, so Kommo-o will actually be pretty decent, especially in the Ultra League. Give it Dragon Tail with Clanging Scales and Close Combat<\/strong> for it to be most effective.<\/p>\n

How do I make the most of Jangmo-o Community Day?<\/h2>\n

The following bonuses will be active during Jangmo-o Community Day:<\/p>\n
