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 covers the event details, upcoming Community Day dates, and the rewards awaiting trainers in the Beloved Buddies event.

Fuecoco's Fiery Community Day Debut

Pokémon GO has announced Fuecoco as the star of the first March Community Day, scheduled for 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) unlocks the powerful Charged Attack, Blast Burn, but only within a week of the event. Skeledirge can also learn Torch Song without time restrictions.

A special Timed Research event offers a Fuecoco encounter with a Seasonal Special Background and further boosts shiny encounter chances! Complete the tasks by March 15th, 2025, at 10:00 pm (local time).

For $2.00, trainers can access an exclusive Community Day Special Research featuring three Fuecoco encounters (all with Seasonal Special Backgrounds), Battle Passes, and Rare Candies. This ticket is giftable to Great Friends and above.
