Pokemon GO players can relish the crisp December air and a couple more events before we ring in the New Year. Pokemon GO Holidays event Part 2 is still some ways away, and we have some scheduled Raids to enjoy.
With the December 2021 Community Day over, Pokemon GO players still have a couple of events to look forward to before the year comes to a close. Deino is still available as a December Research Breakthrough encounter and we still have the second part of the Pokemon GO Holidays event to look forward to.
