Even though Pokemon Day 2025 has passed, The Pokemon Company continues to delight its fans with exciting new content. A fresh event in *Pokemon GO* now offers players the chance to capture the adorable yet formidable Kubfu. Here’s how you can add Kubfu to your *Pokemon GO* collection.
How To Catch Kubfu in Pokemon GO
The *Pokemon GO* community has been eagerly awaiting the arrival of Kubfu and its evolution, Urshifu, since their debut in the *Pokemon Sword and Shield* DLC. With the Might and Mastery event now live, that wait is finally over. To get your hands on Kubfu, you'll need to dive into the Special Research tab and navigate to the "Might and Mastery" section, where you'll find all the necessary challenges.
Research Task | Reward |
Explore 3 km | 15 Poke Balls |
Defeat 3 Team GO Rocket members | 5 Revives |
Use a supereffective Charged Attack | Use a super effective Charged Attack |
Once you've completed these three quests, Kubfu will appear for you to catch, along with 891 XP to boost your progress. Remember, this Special Research is only available until Tuesday, June 3, 2025, at 9:59 AM local time, so don't miss your chance to add Kubfu to your team.
Can You Catch More Than One Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
For those who want more than one Kubfu, *Pokemon GO* has you covered with the Paid Special Research – Fuzzy Fighter pass. For $8, you can unlock additional tasks and the opportunity to catch a second Kubfu. The pass also includes:
- One Incense
- Two Premium Battle Passes
- One Star Piece
- Encounters with Season-themed Pokémon
- A rare encounter with a Dynamax Kubfu
Keep in mind that the Fuzzy Fighter pass is available for purchase until March 10, 2025, at 10 AM local time. Once purchased, the tasks remain, so you can complete them at your own pace.
Can You Evolve Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
While Kubfu is undeniably cute, competitive players are keen to know if they can evolve it into Urshifu. Currently, evolution isn't possible, but given that Urshifu features on the Might and Mastery event's loading screen, it's likely that this feature will be added in the future.
And that's everything you need to know about catching Kubfu in *Pokemon GO*. For more, check out all the free item promo codes for the mobile game in March 2025.
