Today is Axew Community Day In Pokémon GO: Full Details
Today is Axew Community Day in Pokémon GO, and Niantic has updated the special bonus features of the event to offer a buffed event.
Axew will feature in Pokémon GO for today's June 2023 Community Day. We have a brand new update from Niantic on the details that buffs one of the event's special bonuses. Let's get into the details for this event, which will make the highly coveted Shiny Axew, which debuted as the crown jewel of Pokémon GO Fest 2022, an easy catch for all Trainers. Let's get into it.

If you're lucky, you may encounter a Shiny one! Axew that appear under these circumstances will have the same chance of appearing as a Shiny Pokémon as those that appear during June Community Day's three-hour event period."
