Bruxish and special Flabebe join Pokemon Go in Festival of Colors update

If you're still buzzing from the excitement of Pokémon Day 2025, Niantic has yet another treat in store with the return of the Festival of Colors in Pokémon Go. Mark your calendars for March 13th to 17th, as this vibrant event promises delightful surprises at PokeStops and exclusive event bonuses that no Trainer will want to miss out on.

During the event, your Lure Modules will enjoy an extended duration of three hours. And if you're a fan of unique encounters, you'll be pleased to know that Bruxish will be making more frequent appearances whenever you use Incense. Personally, I find Bruxish a bit eerie, resembling a peculiar blend of a piranha and an angler fish, but for those who adore fishy Pokémon, this is your golden window to catch them.

Moreover, depending on your location, you might encounter Flabébé in various colors in the wild. If luck is on your side, you could even spot the rare White Flower Flabébé and Orange Flower Flabébé.

Don't overlook the chance to complete Field Research tasks for a hefty dose of Stardust. Additionally, by tackling Timed Research, you'll be rewarded with Incense, Four Rare Candies, and encounters with event-themed Pokémon, among other exciting goodies. Trainers in India can also look forward to special regional bonuses!
