After Spheal starred in the latest Pokemon Go Community Day last weekend, a bonus second Community Day--called Community Day Classic--is coming this weekend, spotlighting the very first Pokemon in the Pokedex.

Bulbasaur is the star of the Community Day Classic, which runs 2 PM-5 PM local time on January 22. Along with increased chances to catch the Seed Pokemon, any Ivysaurs that evolve into Venusaur either during the event or up to two hours afterward will learn the powerful Grass-type move Frenzy Plant.

A limited-time Community Day Special Research Story called "Bulbasaur Community Day Classic" will be available to purchase for $1. No specific details are known about the research tasks or rewards, but tickets are available to pre-purchase now for those who are interested anyway. Other Bulbasaur Community Day perks include:

• Triple Catch XP for each Pokemon caught
• Incense activated during the event will last three hours instead of 30 minutes
• Lure Modules activated during the event will also last three hours instead of 30 minutes
• Some Snapshots taken during the event will have "a surprise"

Finally, the Item Shop will have two Community Day specials running throughout the event. Not only will 30 Ultra Balls be offered for free, but a special one-time-purchase Community Day Box will be available for 1,280 PokeCoins. The special bundle will include 50 Ultra Balls, five Lucky Eggs, five Star Pieces, and one Elite Charged TM.

The event is the second Pokemon Go Community Day in a week, after a Spheal-themed event took place January 16. This Community Day also marks the first time Bulbasaur has been celebrated via the monthly event since March 2018, during what was the third-ever Community Day event.

Microsoft is celebrating the Lunar New Year and the Year of Tiger with a special-edition Xbox Series S and matching controller. The specially designed items aren't going on sale publicly, but fans can enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win them.

The console and controller designs were created by Chinese cartoon artist Bu2ma (Bu-er-ma). The design shows a tiger with a "modern twist," featuring red and gold colors. "The custom design represents wellbeing and fortune, offering goodwill toward all gamers," Microsoft said.

A total of 15 consoles and controllers were made, and you can retweet the tweet below for a chance to win. People in China can enter through Wechat and bilibili. The full terms and conditions are available here.

"According to traditional Chinese culture, people born in the Year of the Tiger are strong-willed and confident, both of which are characteristics shared by our global Xbox family. Like the Tiger, Team Xbox is determined to bring the joy of gaming to everyone on the planet," Microsoft said.

The controller specifically has a red color scheme with a black ink finish; Microsoft pointed out that this is used frequently in Chinese wash paintings. A golden tiger (虎) written in Chinese is shown on the back of the controller.

Xbox isn't the only US gaming company celebrating the Lunar New Year. Psyonix recently announced a Lunar New Year event for Rocket League.
