The Fuecoco Community Day in Pokemon GO is scheduled for Saturday, March 8, 2025, running from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. During these three hours, Fuecoco will be more prevalent in the wild, as highlighted on the Pokemon GO event blog. Historically, Community Days feature the spotlight Pokemon in about 80-90% of spawns, providing an excellent opportunity to collect ample Candies for evolving and powering up Fuecoco into its full evolutionary line, enhancing your competitive team.

Can Fuecoco Be Shiny in Pokemon GO?

Yes, Fuecoco has the potential to appear in its Shiny form in Pokemon GO. During Community Days, the odds of encountering a Shiny Fuecoco are significantly boosted to 1 in 25, compared to the usual 1 in 512 for regular encounters. This increased chance makes Community Days the prime time to hunt for Shiny variants. While there's no guarantee of encountering a Shiny with every catch, persistent effort during the event should yield success.

Fuecoco’s Evolutions in Pokemon GO

Fuecoco evolves into Crocalor and then Skeledirge, requiring 25 and 100 Fuecoco Candies respectively. Both evolutions are accessible in the game, and the Community Day event presents a special opportunity to obtain a Skeledirge with an exclusive move.

Skeledirge Featured Attack

Evolving Fuecoco into Crocalor and then Skeledirge between the start of the Community Day on March 8 and the following week will grant Skeledirge the Charged Attack, Blast Burn—a move not typically available in its regular moveset.

Torch Song Update

Additionally, Skeledirge can learn Torch Song during and after the Community Day. This Charged Attack enhances Skeledirge's Attack stat by one stage while dealing damage, making it a valuable addition to its battle repertoire.
