Pokémon GO March Community Day Features Fuecoco
Get ready, trainers! The Pokémon GO Community Day for March 2025 is set to ignite with Fuecoco, the Fire Croc Pokémon, taking center stage. Dive into the details of this fiery event, upcoming Community Day dates, and the exciting rewards from the Beloved Buddies event.
Fuecoco Takes the Spotlight in March’s First Community Day
Mark your calendars for March 8, 2025, as Fuecoco, the adorable Fire Croc Pokémon, will be the star of the first Community Day event announced on February 11, 2025. From 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time, Fuecoco will appear more frequently on the map, with an increased chance of encountering its Shiny variant.
Evolving Fuecoco into Skeledirge (via its intermediate evolution, Crocalor) during or within a week after the event will grant it the powerful Charged Attack, Blast Burn. Additionally, Skeledirge can learn the Charged Attack Torch Song without any time restrictions, adding versatility to your battling arsenal.
Don't miss out on the Special Background Timed Research, which rewards trainers with a Fuecoco encounter featuring a Seasonal Special Background. Completing these tasks not only enhances your chances of encountering a Shiny Fuecoco but can be completed until March 15, 2025, at 10:00 pm local time.
For just $2.00, you can unlock the exclusive Community Day Special Research, offering not only Battle Passes and Rare Candies but also three Fuecoco encounters with a Seasonal Special Background. This ticket can be purchased and gifted to a friend with a Friendship level of Great Friends or higher.
