The Pokémon GO Fashion Week event is back, bringing returning costumed Pokémon and a new addition: costumed Minccino and Cinccino!
When is Costumed Minccino Available?
Costumed Minccino and Cinccino debuted during Fashion Week 2025, running from January 10th to 19th, 2025. These stylish Pokémon sport rhinestone glasses and adorable bows. Costumed Minccino has a shiny variant, but Cinccino does not. The event also features costumed Butterfree, Dragonite, Diglett, Blitzle, Kirlia, Shinx, and various Furfrou forms in the wild and Raids.
How to Catch Costumed Minccino:
Unlike previous events, obtaining costumed Minccino is limited:
One-Star Raids:
Costumed Minccino appears in One-Star Raids, easily soloable. However, One-Star Raids also feature costumed Shinx and Furfrou, requiring some searching to find a Minccino raid.
Paid Timed Research:
A $5 USD (or equivalent) ticket grants access to a Timed Research event with XP, Stardust, a new avatar pose, and guaranteed encounters with costumed Minccino. Completing the tasks ensures at least one capture.
Field Research Tasks:
While Field Research Tasks offer event-themed Pokémon encounters, Niantic hasn't specified if Minccino is included. Free-to-play players may only encounter other costumed Pokémon.
Obtaining Costumed Cinccino:
Evolve a costumed Minccino using 50 candies and a Unova Stone.
Pokémon GO is available now.
