The excitement is building as the Fuecoco Community Day approaches in *Pokemon GO*. This event offers Trainers a prime opportunity to catch the Fire Croc Pokemon, Fuecoco, and perhaps even snag a Shiny version. Here's everything you need to know about the upcoming *Pokemon GO* Community Day featuring Fuecoco.
Pokemon GO Fuecoco Community Day Date & Time

The Fuecoco Community Day is set to launch in Pokemon GO on Saturday, March 8, 2025, running from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. During this window, Fuecoco will appear more frequently in the wild, as highlighted on the Pokemon GO event blog. Based on past Community Days, Fuecoco is expected to dominate spawns, making up about 80-90% of encounters. This is a golden chance to gather ample Candies for catching, evolving, and powering up Fuecoco's full evolution line for competitive play.
Can Fuecoco Be Shiny in Pokemon GO?

Absolutely, Fuecoco can be Shiny in Pokemon GO, with the odds of encountering one during the Community Day boosted to 1 in 25, a significant increase from the usual 1 in 512. While a Shiny Fuecoco isn't guaranteed with every encounter, the heightened odds during the event mean that with persistence, you're likely to encounter one within the three-hour window.
Fuecoco’s Evolutions in Pokemon GO

Fuecoco evolves into Crocalor and then Skeledirge, requiring 25 and 100 Fuecoco Candies, respectively. Both evolutions are already in the game, but the Community Day offers a special chance to get a Skeledirge with an exclusive attack.
Skeledirge Featured Attack
Evolving Fuecoco into Crocalor during the Community Day on March 8 and up to a week afterward allows you to evolve it into Skeledirge with the exclusive Charged Attack, Blast Burn, which isn't typically part of its moveset.
Torch Song Update
Additionally, during and after the Community Day, Skeledirge can learn Torch Song, a Charged Attack that boosts its Attack stat by one stage while dealing damage in Pokemon GO battles.
Community Day Event Bonuses
During the Pokemon GO Fuecoco Community Day and until 10:00 PM on March 8, you can enjoy the following bonuses:
- 300% more Stardust from catching Pokemon
- Double the Candy from catches
- Double the chance for Trainers Level 31+ to earn XL Candy from catches

Tips for the Fuecoco Community Day in Pokemon Go

To maximize your experience during the Fuecoco Community Day, stock up on Pinap Berries. With the event's double Candy bonus, using a Pinap Berry will increase the Candy yield from each Fuecoco catch from six to twelve.
If you're planning to participate for the entire three hours, bring along Lure Modules and Incense. Deploying these at PokeStops will maximize Fuecoco spawns, enhancing your chances of encountering a Shiny Fuecoco through increased opportunities.
