How To Get Costume Minccino in Pokemon GO

Author : Riley Jan 25,2025

The Pokémon GO Fashion Week event is back, featuring returning costumed Pokémon and the debut of a new one: costumed Minccino and Cinccino.

Costume Minccino Release Date and Shiny Availability

The event, running January 10th-19th, 2025, introduces costumed Minccino and Cinccino, sporting stylish rhinestone glasses and bows. While Costume Minccino is Shiny-capable, Costume Cinccino is not.

Alongside the newcomers, Fashion Week brings back costumed Butterfree, Dragonite, Diglett, Blitzle, Kirlia, and Shinx. Furfrou, in its various forms, will also appear in the wild and Raids.

How to Catch Costume Minccino

Unlike previous events, obtaining Costume Minccino is limited to two methods:

One-Star Raids

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

Paid Timed Research

Obtaining Costume Cinccino

To acquire Costume Cinccino, evolve your Costume Minccino using 50 Candies and a Unova Stone.
