How to get Fuecoco in Pokemon Go
The most straightforward way to get Fuecoco is to simply find it normally in the wild. Fuecoco is available in the normal spawn pool and as a Fire-type it has boosted spawns in Sunny and clear weather.
Additionally, Fuecoco will have boosted spawns as part of the Horizons: The Series Celebration event. This event will last from Tuesday, March 5, 2024, at 10 AM to Monday, March 11, 2024, at 8 PM local time.
Can Fuecoco be Shiny in Pokemon Go?
At the time of writing, no, Fuecoco can’t be found as a Shiny in Pokemon Go. This is expected to change in the future—perhaps as part of a Fuecoco Community Day. However, there is currently no confirmation if or when this might happen.
