The Pokémon GO Fashion Week event is back, bringing returning costumed Pokémon and a new addition: Minccino and Cinccino in stylish outfits!
When is Costume Minccino Available?
Costume Minccino and Cinccino debuted during Fashion Week 2025, running from January 10th to 19th, 2025. These fashionable Pokémon sport dazzling rhinestone glasses and adorable bows. Costume Minccino can be Shiny, but Costume Cinccino cannot.
The event also features costumed Butterfree, Dragonite, Diglett, Blitzle, Kirlia, Shinx, and various Furfrou forms in the wild and Raids.
How to Catch Costume Minccino:
Unlike previous events, obtaining Costume Minccino is slightly more challenging. It's available through Raids and a paid research ticket.
One-Star Raids:
Costume Minccino appears in One-Star Raids, easily soloable. However, other costumed Pokémon like Shinx and Furfrou also appear in these Raids, so you might need to check multiple Gyms.
Paid Timed Research:
A $5 USD (or equivalent) ticket grants access to a Timed Research with XP, Stardust, a new avatar pose, and guaranteed Costume Minccino encounters.
Field Research Tasks:
While Field Research Tasks offer encounters with event Pokémon, Niantic hasn't confirmed if Costume Minccino will be among them.
Getting Costume Cinccino:
To obtain Costume Cinccino, evolve your Costume Minccino using 50 candies and a Unova Stone.
Pokémon GO is available now.
