How To Get Costume Minccino in Pokemon GO

Author : Penelope Feb 26,2025

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

Costume Minccino and Cinccino debuted during Fashion Week 2025, running from January 10th to 19th, 2025. Minccino's stylish new look includes rhinestone glasses and ear bows. While Costume Minccino has a shiny variant, Costume Cinccino does not.

How to Catch Costume Minccino

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

One-Star Raids

Costume Minccino appears in One-Star Raids during the Fashion Week event. These raids are generally soloable, offering a straightforward way to obtain one, provided you can access a Gym. However, other Pokémon like Costume Shinx and Furfrou also appear in One-Star Raids, so finding a Minccino raid may require some searching.

Paid Timed Research

A paid Timed Research ticket ($5 USD or equivalent) offers guaranteed Costume Minccino encounters, alongside XP, Stardust, and a new avatar pose.

Field Research Tasks

While event-themed Pokémon encounters are available through Field Research Tasks, Niantic's blog doesn't specify if Costume Minccino is among them. Free-to-play players may need to rely solely on raids.

Obtaining Costume Cinccino

To get Costume Cinccino, evolve your Costume Minccino using 50 Minccino Candy and a Unova Stone.

Pokémon GO is available now.
