How To Get Costume Minccino in Pokemon GO

Author:Kristen Update:Jan 27,2025

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:

Costume Minccino and Cinccino debuted during Fashion Week 2025, running from January 10th to 19th, 2025. These fashionable Pokémon sport rhinestone glasses and adorable bows. Costume Minccino has a Shiny variant, unlike its evolved form, Cinccino. The event also features costumed Butterfree, Dragonite, Diglett, Blitzle, Kirlia, Shinx, and various Furfrou forms.

How to Acquire Costume Minccino:

Unlike previous events, obtaining Costume Minccino is limited:

  • One-Star Raids: Costume Minccino appears in these easily soloable raids. However, Shinx and Furfrou also appear, requiring some searching.

  • Paid Timed Research: A $5 USD (or equivalent) ticket guarantees an encounter with Costume Minccino, alongside XP, Stardust, and a new avatar pose.

  • Field Research: While event-themed Pokémon encounters are promised via Field Research, Minccino's inclusion isn't guaranteed. Niantic's past practices suggest it might be exclusive to the paid research.
