Timburr Community Day
October 15, 2023 Community Day. 3-hour event featuring Timburr. Shiny rate boosted to ~1-in-25 during the event. Conkeldurr learns Brutal Swing; not normally wild.
The evolved form learned this move during the event window and from Elite Charged TMs after. This is what makes most CDs pull double duty — get the shiny and a hundo with the exclusive move locked in.
Stack each bonus with the relevant multiplier (Lucky Egg for XP, Star Piece for dust, Pinap Berry for candy) for compounded gains.
Shiny Timburr was boosted to roughly 1-in-25 during this Community Day — the standard CD shiny rate. Most shiny hunters expect ~12 shinies across the 3-hour event.
A-tier exclusive — niche but strong. Good coverage move that opens up a role in raids or PvP leagues.
Hindsight verdict — based on how the evolved form aged in the meta. For the live tier rankings see the tier list.
Coverage charged move — broadens the species' matchup spread in PvP without necessarily topping raw DPS. Often the deciding tech in Great/Ultra League meta shifts.
Was the October 15, 2023 Community Day worth it in hindsight?
A-tier exclusive — niche but strong. Good coverage move that opens up a role in raids or PvP leagues. Shiny Timburr remains a permanent dex addition either way, so any time spent at this CD wasn't wasted.
What was the October 15, 2023 Community Day in-game?
The October 15, 2023 Community Day featured Timburr. The exclusive move was Brutal Swing — learned by the evolved form during the event window and via Elite Charged TM afterward. Bonuses: 3x catch Stardust, 2x catch candy, 3-hr Incense, 3-hr Lure.
How do I get Brutal Swing on my Timburr after the event?
Use an Elite Charged TM (or Elite Fast TM if Brutal Swing is a fast move) on the evolved form. Niantic occasionally re-releases exclusive moves during anniversary events and Community Day recap weekends — the December recap CD is the most reliable second chance.
Can I still get a shiny from this Community Day?
Yes — the shiny form is permanently released after a Community Day. The boosted ~1-in-25 rate only applies during the event, but you can still hunt the standard ~1-in-500 wild rate or use raids / research / eggs after.
When is the next Community Day?
Niantic announces Community Days about 2-3 weeks ahead. Check the events page for the current month's schedule and announced upcoming dates.
