Announcing the Arrival of Costume Minccino in Pokémon GO!

Jan 24,25

The Pokémon GO Fashion Week event is back, bringing returning costumed Pokémon and a new addition: Minccino and Cinccino in stylish outfits!

When to Catch Costumed Minccino:

The Fashion Week event, featuring costumed Minccino and Cinccino, ran from January 10th to 19th, 2025. These fashionable Pokémon sport rhinestone glasses and adorable bows. Shiny Costume Minccino was available, but a Shiny Costume Cinccino was not. The event also included costumed Butterfree, Dragonite, Diglett, Blitzle, Kirlia, Shinx, and various Furfrou forms.

How to Obtain Costumed Minccino:

Unlike previous events, obtaining the costumed Minccino was limited. Players could find it in two ways:

One-Star Raids:

Costume Minccino appeared in One-Star Raids, easily soloable for most trainers. However, One-Star Raids also featured Shinx and Furfrou, requiring some searching to find a Minccino raid.

Paid Timed Research:

A $5 USD (or equivalent) paid Timed Research ticket offered guaranteed encounters with Costume Minccino, along with XP, Stardust, and a new avatar pose.

Field Research Tasks:

While Field Research Tasks offered encounters with event Pokémon, Niantic's blog didn't specify if Minccino was included. Free-to-play players may have had limited access to the new costumed variant.

Getting Costumed Cinccino:

To get a costumed Cinccino, players needed to evolve their costumed Minccino using 50 candies and a Unova Stone.
