Complete Timed Research during Community Day and we’ll plant trees!

Saturday, April 23, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. local time

During this period, there will be Timed Research available. Each phase will require you to adventure 1 km, and doing so will earn you an encounter with Cherubi.

During the entire day of April 23, 2022, every Trainer who adventures 5 km during Community Day, Niantic will plant a tree (up to 100,000 trees). So get exploring!
