Pokémon GO March 2025 Community Day: All About Fuecoco
Get ready, trainers! Pokémon GO's March 2025 Community Day is set to feature Fuecoco, the adorable Fire Croc Pokémon. This exciting event promises a host of activities, including increased chances to encounter Shiny Fuecoco and exclusive rewards. Let's dive into the details of this fiery event and explore what's in store for the upcoming Community Days and the Beloved Buddies event.
Fuecoco Takes Center Stage in March’s First Community Day
Mark your calendars for March 8, 2025, between 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm (local time), as Fuecoco will be making frequent appearances on the map. This is your chance to catch this fiery Pokémon with an increased Shiny rate during the event.
Evolving Fuecoco into Crocalor and then into Skeledirge during or within a week after the event allows it to learn the powerful Charged Attack, Blast Burn. Skeledirge can also learn the Charged Attack Torch Song, which has no time restrictions for learning.
Don't miss out on the Special Background Timed Research, which offers an encounter with Fuecoco featuring a Seasonal Special Background. Completing these tasks not only boosts your chances of encountering a Shiny Fuecoco but can be completed until March 15, 2025, at 10:00 pm (local time).
For a small fee of $2.00, trainers can access the exclusive Community Day Special Research, which includes three encounters with Fuecoco, each with a Seasonal Special Background. This ticket can also be purchased and gifted to a friend at the Great Friends level or above.
