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 its evolved form, 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 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 (or regional equivalent) ticket grants access to a Timed Research event featuring XP, Stardust, a new avatar pose, and encounters with costumed Minccino. This is a guaranteed method to obtain one.
Field Research Tasks:
While Field Research Tasks offer encounters with event Pokémon, Niantic's blog doesn't specify if costumed Minccino is included. It's possible, but not guaranteed, to obtain one this way.
Obtaining Costumed Cinccino:
To get a costumed Cinccino, evolve your costumed Minccino using 50 Minccino Candy and an Unova Stone.
Pokémon GO is available now.
