Pokémon GO - Community Day
Today marks the Pokémon GO Community Day. On this day, for three hours in each region, Rhyhorn will appear, enmass, in Pokémon GO with a chance of Shiny Rhyhorn appearing. During this event, when you evolve Rhydon into Rhyperior, it will know the move Rock Wrecker, which is exclusive to this event. This can be done for a further 2 hours after the event. This coincides with 3* Capture Stardust and 3 hour Lure Modules. This runs at these times:
It runs from 11am to 2pm in your local time in the Northern Hemisphere and 3pm to 6pm in local time in the southern hemisphere
