Pokemon GO March Community Day Features Fuecoco

Pokémon GO's March 2025 Community Day Lineup and Beloved Buddies Event Details

March's Pokémon GO Community Day extravaganza kicks off with Fuecoco, the fiery croc Pokémon! This article details the March events, future Community Day dates, and the rewards awaiting trainers in the Beloved Buddies event.

Fuecoco Ignites March's First Community Day

Fuecoco takes center stage on March 8th, 2025, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm (local time). Expect increased Fuecoco spawns and boosted shiny rates. Evolving your Fuecoco to Skeledirge (via Crocalor) within one week of the event unlocks the powerful Charged Attack, Blast Burn. Skeledirge can also learn Torch Song, with no time limit.

A special Timed Research event runs until March 15th, 10:00 pm (local time), offering a Fuecoco encounter with a Seasonal Special Background and further enhanced shiny odds. A separate Community Day Special Research ticket ($2.00) provides three Fuecoco encounters (also with Seasonal Special Backgrounds), Rare Candies, and a Battle Pass. This ticket is giftable to Great Friends or higher.
