Popplio will make its Shiny debut during this Community Day.
The next Pokémon GO Community Day will feature Popplio. This will provide Pokémon GO Trainers a chance to grab a Shiny Popplio and get a Primarina with exclusive move, Hydro Cannon.
PopplioCommunity Day takes place Saturday, August 31 from 1400-1700 local time.
Popplio was widely expected to get a Community Day in Pokémon GO sooner rather than later. We’ve already had Rowlett and Litten, so it makes sense to get the third starter from the Alola region. This is a hugely popular Pokémon, with a nice shiny form. So, more than ever this is a great chance to meet up with your friends and play some Pokémon GO.

Featured Pokémon: Popplio
During the event times, Popplio will be appearing much more frequently in the wild. You’ll also have a increased chance of catching a Shiny Popplio.
There will also be a featured move for evolving Popplio. Any Brionne evolved into Primarina during Popplio Pokémon GO Community Day will learn Hydro Cannon, a Water-type move. If you have any Primarina already, the only way they can learn this move is through an Elite TM.
