The Pokémon GO Fashion Week event is back, featuring returning costumed Pokémon and the debut of 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 Costumed Cinccino does not. The event also includes costumed Butterfree, Dragonite, Diglett, Blitzle, Kirlia, Shinx, and various Furfrou forms in the wild and Raids.
How to Catch Costumed Minccino:
Unfortunately, obtaining Costumed Minccino is limited to two methods:
One-Star Raids:
Costumed Minccino appears in One-Star Raids, easily soloable. However, One-Star Raids also feature Costumed Shinx and Furfrou, so finding a Minccino Raid may require checking multiple Gyms.
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.
Field Research Tasks:
While event-themed Pokémon encounters are available via Field Research Tasks, Niantic's blog doesn't specify which Pokémon are included. Free-to-play players may find obtaining Costumed Minccino challenging.
Obtaining Costumed Cinccino:
Evolve your Costumed Minccino using 50 Candies and a Unova Stone.
Pokémon GO is available now.
