Fuecoco Appears in March’s First Community Day
Pokémon GO has announced that Fuecoco will headline the first Community Day of March 2025, taking place on March 8, 2025, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time. During this period, Fuecoco will appear more frequently on the map, and you'll have a higher chance of encountering its Shiny variant.

A special Timed Research will be available, offering a Fuecoco encounter with a Seasonal Special Background. Completing these tasks until March 15, 2025, at 10:00 pm local time will further boost your chances of encountering a Shiny Fuecoco.
For $2.00, trainers can access an exclusive Community Day Special Research, which includes three Fuecoco encounters with a Seasonal Special Background, along with Battle Passes and Rare Candies. This ticket can be purchased and gifted to friends at a Great Friends level or higher.
