Pokemon GO March 2025 Community Days Details Revealed

Fuecoco Takes the Spotlight in March's First Community Day

Mark your calendars! Pokémon GO has announced that Fuecoco will headline the first Community Day of March on March 8, 2025, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time. During this event, Fuecoco will appear more frequently on the map, and there will be an increased chance of encountering its Shiny form.

Evolving Fuecoco into Skeledirge (via Crocalor) during or within a week after the event will grant it the Charged Attack Blast Burn. Skeledirge can also learn the Charged Attack Torch Song without any time restrictions.

A Special Background Timed Research will be available, offering trainers a chance to encounter Fuecoco with a Seasonal Special Background. Completing these tasks will further boost the Shiny rate for Fuecoco encounters, and you have until March 15, 2025, at 10:00 pm local time to finish them.

For $2.00, trainers can access the exclusive Community Day Special Research, which includes three Fuecoco encounters with a Seasonal Special Background, along with Battle Passes and Rare Candies. This ticket can also be purchased and gifted to friends at the Great Friends level or higher.

Upcoming Community Days Scheduled for March to May

Pokémon GO has also unveiled the dates for Community Day events from March to May 2025, all scheduled on weekends:

Pokémon GO Beloved Buddies Event Launched on February 11, 2025

Choosing Between Candela and Arlo

The Beloved Buddies event, which debuted Dhelmise, includes a Timed Research that offers two distinct paths: one with Candela, the leader of Team Valor, and the other with Arlo, a Team GO Rocket leader.

Before choosing a path, trainers will complete initial tasks to earn Ultra Balls and encounters with Remoraid and Mantine. Then, they can decide which path to follow, each offering unique rewards.

The Candela path focuses on enhancing your bond with your Buddy Pokémon and offers Poffins, Stardust, Ultra Balls, and encounters with Luvdisc, Shellder, and Rapidash.

The Arlo path, centered around catching Pokémon and battling, provides similar item rewards, including a Pocket Radar, and encounters with Cubone, Slowpoke, and Scizor.

Choose your path based on your favorite characters and the Pokémon you wish to encounter. For more details on the Beloved Buddies event, check out our dedicated article!
