Fuecoco Community Day: Pokemon GO Guide & Tips (March 2025)

Get ready, Trainers! The Fuecoco Community Day is making its way to *Pokemon GO*, and it's your chance to snag the Fire Croc Pokemon, Fuecoco, and even its Shiny variant. Here’s your complete guide to making the most out of this exciting event in *Pokemon GO*.

Pokemon GO Fuecoco Community Day Date & Time

Mark your calendars for Saturday, March 8, 2025. The Fuecoco Community Day kicks off at 2:00 PM and wraps up at 5:00 PM. During these three hours, Fuecoco will be popping up more frequently in the wild, as highlighted on the Pokemon GO blog. With the featured Pokemon typically dominating 80-to-90% of spawns during Community Days, it's an ideal time to stock up on Candies, evolve, and power up Fuecoco's full evolution line to enhance your competitive team.

Can Fuecoco Be Shiny in Pokemon GO?

Yes, you can encounter Shiny Fuecoco in Pokemon GO. The odds are significantly boosted during Community Day to 1 in 25, compared to the usual 1 in 512 for regular encounters. While there's no guarantee you'll find one with every encounter, the increased chances mean you're likely to spot a Shiny Fuecoco with some persistence over the event's duration.

Fuecoco’s Evolutions in Pokemon GO

Fuecoco evolves into Crocalor and then Skeledirge, requiring 25 and 100 Fuecoco Candies respectively. Both evolutions are available in the game, but the Community Day offers a special opportunity to evolve into a Skeledirge with an exclusive move.

Skeledirge Featured Attack

Evolving Fuecoco into Crocalor and then Skeledirge between March 8 and one week after the Community Day will grant Skeledirge the Charged Attack, Blast Burn, which is not typically part of its moveset.

Torch Song Update

Additionally, Skeledirge can learn Torch Song, a Charged Attack that increases its Attack stat by one stage during Pokemon GO battles while dealing damage, available during and after the Community Day.
