Get ready for Ponyta Community Day.
September's Pokémon GO Community Day will feature Ponyta. This will provide Pokémon GO Trainers a chance to grab a Shiny Ponyta and get a Rapidash with exclusive move, Wild Charge. Both forms of Ponyta will be featured.
Ponyta Community Day takes place Saturday, September 14 from 1400-1700 local time.

Featured Pokémon: Ponyta
During the event times, Ponyta and Galarian Ponyta will be appearing much more frequently in the wild. You'll also have a increased chance of catching a Shiny Ponyta in either form.
There will also be a featured move for evolving Ponyta. Any Ponyta evolved into Rapidash during Ponyta Pokémon GO Community Day will learn Wild Charge, an Electric-type move. If you have any Rapidash already, the only way they can learn this move is through an Elite TM.
Shiny Ponyta and Shiny Rapidash
Here is the regular and shiny versions of the family of Pokémon featured this Community Day.
