December 2025 Community Day

December's Community Day brings back the Pokémon from 2025's Community Days, with a different line-up on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 December and Machop, Eevee, Totodile and Ralts turning up in short windows on both days. Evolving them over the weekend gives the featured attacks from their original Community Days, and a paid Special Research offers more encounters and Elite TMs. There is no Seasonal Special Background this time.
