Get ready, Pokémon GO Trainers! Fuecoco Community Day is arriving, bringing with it a fantastic opportunity to catch the fiery Fire Croc Pokémon and maybe even snag a Shiny one. Here’s your complete guide to maximizing your experience during this exciting event.
Pokémon 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 three-hour window, Fuecoco will appear much more frequently in the wild. Based on past Community Days, expect Fuecoco to dominate spawns (80-90%), making it ideal for Candy farming to evolve and power up your very own Skeledirge.
Can Fuecoco Be Shiny in Pokémon GO?
Yes! The Shiny rate for Fuecoco during Community Day is a boosted 1 in 25, a significant increase from the usual 1 in 512. This makes Community Day the perfect time to add a Shiny Fuecoco to your collection. While not guaranteed, with enough effort during the three-hour event, you'll significantly increase your chances.
Fuecoco’s Evolutions in Pokémon GO
Fuecoco evolves into Crocalor (25 Candies) and then into Skeledirge (100 Candies). While both evolutions are already in the game, this Community Day offers a special bonus:
Skeledirge’s Exclusive Attack
Evolving your Fuecoco to Crocalor between the start of Community Day (March 8th) and the following week will grant your Skeledirge the powerful Charged Attack, Blast Burn—a move not normally available.
Torch Song Update
Skeledirge will also learn Torch Song, a Charged Attack that boosts its Attack stat by one stage during battles.
