Recommended Videos Pokemon GO Fuecoco Community Day Date & Time

Mark your calendars! The Fuecoco Community Day in Pokémon GO kicks off on Saturday, March 8, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. During this time, Fuecoco will appear much more frequently in the wild, as announced on the official Pokémon GO blog.

Based on past Community Days, expect Fuecoco to dominate spawns (80-90%) during these three hours. This is a fantastic opportunity to stock up on Candy to evolve and power up your Fuecoco, adding a powerful Pokémon to your team.

Can Fuecoco Be Shiny in Pokemon GO?

Yes! Shiny Fuecoco will be available during Community Day, with boosted odds of 1 in 25. Compare this to the usual 1 in 512 chance for regular encounters – Community Day significantly increases your chances of adding this colorful variant to your collection. While not guaranteed, persistent Trainers should have no trouble finding a Shiny Fuecoco within the three-hour event window.

Fuecoco’s Evolutions in Pokemon GO

Fuecoco evolves into Crocalor (25 Candies) and then Skeledirge (100 Candies). Both evolutions are already in the game, but this Community Day offers a special bonus: a Skeledirge with an exclusive attack!

Skeledirge Featured Attack

Evolve your Fuecoco to Crocalor between the start of Community Day (March 8th) and the following week to get a Skeledirge that knows the powerful Charged Attack, Blast Burn—a move not normally in its moveset.

Torch Song Update

Skeledirge will also learn Torch Song, a Charged Attack that boosts its Attack stat by one stage during battles, adding another strategic advantage.
