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

The March 2025 Pokémon GO Community Day extravaganza kicks off with Fuecoco, the fiery croc Pokémon! This article delves into the event specifics, upcoming Community Day dates, and the rewards awaiting trainers in the Beloved Buddies event.

March Community Day: Fuecoco Takes Center Stage

Fuecoco is the star of the first March Community Day, appearing frequently on March 8th, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM (local time). Shiny Fuecoco will have an increased appearance rate.

Evolving Fuecoco into Skeledirge (via Crocalor) unlocks the powerful Charged Attack, Blast Burn, but only within one 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, further boosting Shiny encounter chances. This Timed Research runs until March 15th, 2025, at 10:00 PM (local time).

A $2.00 Community Day Special Research ticket provides three Fuecoco encounters (with Seasonal Special Backgrounds), Battle Passes, and Rare Candies. This ticket is giftable to Great Friends and above.
