Pokémon Go is having a Flabébé Community Day event on Sunday, Sept. 14 from 2-5 p.m. in your local time.
Notably, Flabébé has regional color variations, and the colors from outside your region will not be available during this event. As a reminder, the colors and regions are as follows:
- Red Flower Flabébé: Europe, the Middle East, and Africa
- Blue Flower Flabébé: the Asia-Pacific region
- Yellow Flower Flabébé: the Americas
White and Orange Flower Flabébé are available everywhere, but are slightly rarer.
As expected with a Community Day event, Flabébé will spawn in huge numbers with a high chance for it to appear shiny. There are also several other bonuses and perks, which we list out below.
How do I catch a shiny Flabébé?
As per old research by the now-defunct website The Silph Road (via Wayback Machine), 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 Pokémon.
If you’re short on time or Poké Balls, you can pop an Incense, then quickly tap each Flabébé to check for shiny ones, running from any that aren’t shiny. Notably, any Flabébé you’ve already tapped will face where your player is standing, so that should help identify which ones you may have already checked.
What Community Day move does Flabébé’s evolution learn?
If you evolve Floette into Florges from Sept. 14 at 2 p.m. until Sept. 21 at 10 p.m. in your local time, it will learn the charged move Chilling Water.
The evolution requirement for evolving Floette into Florges will be reduced to earning seven hearts with Floette as your buddy (down from 20 hearts) during this time period as well, so make sure to take advantage of that!
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 Chilling Water. If you don’t want to wait, you can use an Elite TM to get the move.
How does Florges do in the meta?
Florges is a staple in every PvP league, so this is a great opportunity to find one with decent PvP stats (low attack, but higher defense and HP). Set it up with Fairy Wind alongside Moonblast and Chilling Water, and it should be pretty good.
For PvE content (raids and gyms), Florges is… fine. It can do damage as a fairy-type attacker, but there are many better options, including Incarnate Forme Enamorus, Crowned Sword Zacian, Tapu Lele, Gardevoir, Togekiss… the list goes on. Even Sylveon will do you better Florges, so I wouldn’t personally invest in one for PvE.
How do I make the most of Flabébé Community Day?
The following bonuses will be active during Flabébé Community Day:
- 1⁄4 hatch distance for eggs placed into Incubators during the event
- Doubled candy for catching Pokémon
- Doubled chance for level 31+ trainers to get XL candy from catching Pokémon
- Incense lasts three hours
- Lure Modules lasts three hours
- Flabébé special photobombs when taking snapshots
- One additional special trade
- Stardust cost halved for trading
That said, you should definitely put your eggs into Incubators and pop an Incense and try to nab some powerful Flabébé.
If you can Mega Evolve Gardevoir, Mawile, Altaria, Audino, or Diancie, you’ll score additional FlabébéCandy per catch.
There will also be “Community Day Continued” Timed Research until Sept. 21 that will reward more Flabébé, including ones with special themed backgrounds. This research will keep the increased shiny rate for Flabébé, even after the three-hour event is over, so make sure you complete them for extra chances to get a shiny.
