How To Get Costume Minccino in Pokemon GO

By IsaacJan 17,2025

The Pokémon GO Fashion Week event is back, bringing returning costumed Pokémon and a stylish newcomer: Minccino and Cinccino in fashionable attire!

When to Catch Costumed Minccino

The Fashion Week event, featuring costumed Minccino and Cinccino, ran from January 10th to 19th, 2025. These Pokémon sport chic 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

Securing a fashionable Minccino proved challenging, as recent Pokémon GO events have limited wild spawns. Costume Minccino was obtainable through two methods:

One-Star Raids

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

Paid Timed Research

A $5 USD (or equivalent) Paid Timed Research ticket offered XP, Stardust, a new avatar pose, and guaranteed encounters with Costume Minccino. Completing the research tasks ensured at least one fashionable Minccino.

Field Research Tasks

While event-themed Pokémon encounters were available through Field Research Tasks, Niantic's blog didn't specify which Pokémon were included. The possibility of encountering Minccino existed, but free-to-play players may have only encountered other Pokémon.

Getting Costumed Cinccino

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

Pokémon GO remains available for play.
