Like Magikarp, Gastly, and Charmander before it, Electabuzz continued the trend that Niantic started in 2020 by giving Community Days to Pokémon that have already had their Shinies released. While the Pokémon GO playerbase has gotten used to this redefined idea of Community Day in some way, Electabuzz is by far the least offensive of the already released Shinies. Before today, the only way to obtain a Shiny Electabuzz or Electivire was to hatch a Shiny Elekid and evolve it up. With the babies gone from 7KM Eggs for the better part of the year, doing this has been impossible in Pokémon GO for some time, which made this a welcome choice. Also, while Elekid and Electivire are somewhat underwhelming Shinies, the burnt orange Electabuzz was thrilling to see in the wild.
