Pokémon GO March 2025 Community Days Details Revealed
Fuecoco Shines in March’s First Community Day
Mark your calendars! Pokémon GO has announced that Fuecoco will be the star of the first Community Day on March 8, 2025, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm (local time). During this event, you'll spot Fuecoco more frequently on the map, and there's a higher chance of encountering its Shiny variant.
Evolving Fuecoco into Skeledirge (via Crocalor) during the event or within a week following it grants it the Charged Attack Blast Burn. Skeledirge can also learn Torch Song without any time restrictions, adding versatility to your battling strategy.
Don't miss out on the Special Background Timed Research, which offers an encounter with Fuecoco featuring a Seasonal Special Background. Completing these tasks until March 15, 2025, at 10:00 pm (local time) will further boost your chances of finding Shiny Fuecoco.
For an extra treat, you can purchase the exclusive Community Day Special Research for just $2.00. This ticket not only provides the standard Battle Pass and Rare Candies but also three Fuecoco encounters with a Seasonal Special Background. You can even gift this ticket to a friend with a Great Friends or higher Friendship level.
