Gastly is featured as part of July’s Pokémon Go Community Day event, which is scheduled for Sunday, July 19 from 11 AM to 5 PM.
Gastly was the runner-up in May’s fan poll. According to Niantic, Gastly will appear more frequently in the wild, and trainers will have a chance to catch a Shiny Gastly.
There will also be a special July Community Day Box available for purchase. It features 30 Ultra Balls, an Elite Fast TM, two Incense, and two Super Incubators.
