Pokémon GO March 2025 Community Day: Fuecoco Takes the Spotlight

Get ready, Trainers! Pokémon GO's March 2025 Community Day is set to ignite with the adorable Fuecoco, the Fire Croc Pokémon, leading the charge. Dive into the details of this fiery event, discover upcoming Community Day dates, and learn about the exciting rewards from the Beloved Buddies event.

Fuecoco Shines in March's First Community Day

Mark your calendars for March 8, 2025, as Fuecoco will be the star of the show during the first Community Day of the month, running from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time. This event promises a higher chance of encountering Shiny Fuecoco, making it the perfect opportunity to add this rare variant to your collection.

Evolving Fuecoco into Skeledirge via Crocalor during or within a week after the event will grant it the powerful Charged Attack, Blast Burn. Moreover, Skeledirge can learn the Charged Attack Torch Song without any time limits, adding versatility to your battle strategies.

Don't miss out on the Special Background Timed Research, which not only boosts your chances of encountering a Shiny Fuecoco but also rewards you with a Fuecoco encounter featuring a Seasonal Special Background. These tasks are available until March 15, 2025, at 10:00 pm local time.

For those looking for even more, the exclusive Community Day Special Research can be purchased for $2.00. This ticket includes encounters with three Fuecoco, each sporting a Seasonal Special Background, alongside the usual rewards like Battle Passes and Rare Candies. You can also gift this ticket to a friend at the Great Friends level or higher.

Beloved Buddies Event: Choose Your Path

Launched on February 11, 2025, the Beloved Buddies event introduces the ghostly Dhelmise and offers Trainers a choice between two paths in its Timed Research: one with Candela, the Team Valor leader, and the other with Arlo, a Team GO Rocket leader.

The initial tasks, which precede your path choice, reward you with Ultra Balls and encounters with Remoraid and Mantine. Then, you'll decide your journey:

• Candela Path: Focus on deepening your bond with your Buddy Pokémon. Rewards include Poffins, Stardust, Ultra Balls, and encounters with Luvdisc, Shellder, and Rapidash.
• Arlo Path: Emphasize catching Pokémon and battling. Along with Poffins, Stardust, and Ultra Balls, you'll also receive a Pocket Radar and encounter Cubone, Slowpoke, and Scizor.

Choose your path based on your favorite characters and the exclusive Pokémon encounters you're aiming for. For more details on the Beloved Buddies event, be sure to check out our dedicated article!
