Quick answer

Gible Community Day Classic was Saturday 12 September 2026, 2pm to 5pm local time, with a 1 in 25 shiny chance. The hundo was 477 CP from research, 635 from Eggs, or 954 in the wild at max level (1033 in Windy or Sunny weather). Garchomp evolved before 9pm learned the legacy move Earth Power, which makes Mega Garchomp the 2nd best Ground attacker on Pokémon GO Hub.

What was on

  • Gible appeared in the wild on Saturday 12 September 2026, 2pm to 5pm local time, with a 1 in 25 shiny chance.
  • Evolving Gabite into Garchomp before 9pm gave it the legacy move Earth Power*.
  • A Collection Challenge, the first in a long time, rewarded XP, Stardust and Garchomp Mega Energy.
  • 3x catch XP.

Why Earth Power matters

With Mud Shot and Earth Power*, Mega Garchomp is the 2nd best Ground attacker on Pokémon GO Hub. Without Earth Power, it’s mainly a Dragon attacker, so this was the event to get it.

Hundo CPs

  • Research: 477 CP
  • Eggs: 635 CP
  • Wild, max level: 954 CP, or 1033 in Windy or Sunny weather

Matt's take3x catch XP is my least favourite bonus, but Gible is such a great Pokémon that I was there anyway, even though I already had many hundos.
