Ralts originally joined Pokémon GO in 2017 with the Hoenn region's introduction, making its Community Day debut in August 2019. This Community Day Classic provides returning players and those who missed it the first time a second chance to add this valuable Pokémon to their collection. This event joins other exciting January activities, including the return of Shadow Ho-Oh on Shadow Day and the anticipated Lunar New Year event.
