Pokemon GOis once again letting fans of the popular augmented reality mobile game vote for which Pokemon will be featured in upcoming Community Day events. The two Pokemon with the most votes will be featured in theJune and July Community Dayevents respectively, and right now Weedle has the most votes with 34.1% at the time of this writing.
Some fans may be confused as to why Weedle is winning thePokemon GOCommunity Day voting contest. After all, Weedle is one of the most commonPokemon GOPokemon, and it’s safe to say that many fans already have it and all its evolved forms. However, there are actually a couple of different reasons as to whyPokemon GOplayers are voting for Weedle Community Day over the other options in the poll.

One of the main reasons is that there has never been a Weedle Community Day, nor an event revolving around Weedle. This means that it has been comparatively difficult forPokemon GOplayers to get shiny Weedle, Kakuna, andBeedrillfor their collection. Shiny Beedrill seems to be especially desired byPokemon GOfans, and Weedle Community Day will virtually guarantee that they will be able to get at least one shiny Beedrill inPokemon GO.
The other reason whyPokemon GOplayers are voting for Weedle Community Day is because of Beedrill’s proficiency in theBattle League. So not only would Weedle Community Day allowPokemon GOplayers to get shiny Beedrill, but they would be able to get a shiny Beedrill that knows Drill Run, which will be useful for the game’s PvP mode. This gives Beedrill a lot more use than some of the other potential Community Day Pokemon in the lineup.
As for the Pokemon that will be featured in the other July Community Day, it’s looking like Gastly will be picked. Gastly currently has 32.4% of the vote at the time of this writing, and with the poll ending later today, it seems likely that theghost-type Pokemonwill be the other featured Pokemon. Squirtle is in third place, but is trailing considerably and it seems unlikely that it will pull ahead of either Gastly or Weedle, especially since over 600,000 votes have already been counted.
