The Fuecoco Community Day event runs from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM on Saturday, March 8, 2025. During this window, Fuecoco will appear much more frequently in the wild. Expect a high spawn rate, making it ideal for Candy farming to evolve your Fuecoco into Crocalor and then Skeledirge.

Shiny Fuecoco:

Shiny Fuecoco will be available! The boosted shiny rate during Community Day is 1 in 25, significantly higher than the usual 1 in 512. Increase your chances by catching as many Fuecoco as possible.
