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

The Fuecoco Community Day is approaching in *Pokemon GO*, offering Trainers the chance to catch the Fire Croc Pokemon, Fuecoco, and possibly encounter its Shiny variant. Here’s all the essential information you need for the upcoming Community Day event.

Pokemon GO Fuecoco Community Day Date & Time

The Fuecoco Community Day is scheduled for Pokemon GO on Saturday, March 8, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. During this period, Fuecoco will appear more frequently in the wild, as highlighted in the Pokemon GO event announcement. Based on past Community Days, the featured Pokemon typically accounts for 80-to-90% of spawns, making it an excellent opportunity to collect Candies for evolving and powering up Fuecoco's full evolutionary line.

Can Fuecoco Be Shiny in Pokemon GO?

Yes, Fuecoco can be Shiny in Pokemon GO. The odds of encountering a Shiny Fuecoco during Community Day are significantly increased to 1 in 25, compared to the usual 1 in 512 for regular encounters. While a Shiny encounter isn't guaranteed, the heightened odds during the event make it a prime time for Trainers to add a Shiny Fuecoco to their collection with some persistence.

Fuecoco’s Evolutions in Pokemon GO

Fuecoco evolves into Crocalor and then Skeledirge, requiring 25 and 100 Fuecoco Candies, respectively. Both evolutions are already part of the game, but the Community Day event allows for a unique opportunity to obtain a Skeledirge with an exclusive attack.

Skeledirge Featured Attack

If you evolve Fuecoco into Crocalor during the Community Day on March 8, or within the following week, the resulting Skeledirge will learn the Charged Attack, Blast Burn, which is not typically available in its moveset.

Torch Song Update

Additionally, Skeledirge can learn Torch Song during and after the Community Day. This Charged Attack enhances its Attack stat by one stage in battles while inflicting damage.
