Today was the slowpoke community day in Pokemon Go and to be completely honest, it was absurd. Not only was it a shiny goldmine, it was also one of the best XP events i've played. Most of my community days result in me gaining at least enough shinies for the evolution line with a couple having more. However the last community day for Noibat only netted me 3 shinies despite playing it slightly more committed than usual.
Today was completely the opposite however. I was at work during the beginning hours of the event so I took a 30 minute break to play. In that 30 minutes I ended up with 5 shinies, more than the last four community days. Was composed of three galarian and two originals. Ended up with another seven through both an autocatcher as well as just pure luck. Felt as if they were spawning constantly, especially the galarian ones. Ended up with an amazing 12 in total, heaven knows what to do with all of them.
This is also not mentioning the absurd amount of XP that was possible to gain during the event. The catch reticle for an excellent on slowpoke is incredibly easy to hit and combined with triple XP bonus and a lucky egg resulted in 7000XP+ per catch. I will be honest though, once I reached level 40 from it I decided i'd rather spend my day doing other stuff, especially considering I already had a ton of shinies. Oh yeah, I also forgot to mention that I only played properly for probably 45 minutes out of the three hour window, about my usual playtime for these events.
All in all, was an amazing community day and probably one of the best i've participated in.
