The Pokémon GO Fashion Week event is back, featuring 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 its evolution, Cinccino, does not.
The event also brings back 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 to two methods:
One-Star Raids:
Costumed Minccino appears in easily soloable One-Star Raids. 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, offering XP, Stardust, a new avatar pose, and encounters with costumed Minccino. This is the guaranteed method to obtain one.
Field Research Tasks:
While Field Research Tasks offer encounters with event Pokémon, Niantic hasn't specified if costumed Minccino is included. Free players may only encounter other costumed Pokémon.
Getting Costumed Cinccino:
To obtain Cinccino, evolve your costumed Minccino using 50 candies and a Unova Stone.
Pokémon GO is available now.
