Niantic has announced that the next Pokémon of Community Day will take place during the Season of Light celebration. The Featured Pokemon for October 2022 Community Day will be Litwick. Community Day will take place on October 15, 2022 and will run from 14 p.m. to 17 p.m. local time. Litwick's Shining can be difficult to spot and features a slightly different colored flame on its head. It evolves into Chandelure, which sports bright orange flames, unlike its normal dark blue/purple flames.

If players transform their Litwick into Chandelure during the event, and up to five hours after, they will get a Pokemon that knows the Poltergeist move. This is a very powerful Ghost-type move that can deal up to 140 damage to opponents in Trainer, Gym, and Raid Battles. It's a great move to grab while it's available. It will cost 125 Litwick Candy in total to evolve into its final evolution, but players should have no problem getting that amount through event bonuses handed out during Community Day.
