Bruxish and Special Flabebe Join Pokemon Go's Festival of Colors Update

If you're still buzzing from all the exciting announcements during Pokémon Day 2025, Niantic has another treat in store with the return of the Festival of Colors event in Pokémon Go. Mark your calendars for March 13th to 17th, as this vibrant event promises delightful surprises at PokeStops and irresistible event bonuses that every Trainer will want to dive into.

During the event, your Lure Modules will be supercharged, lasting a full three hours. And if you're a fan of the unique Bruxish, you're in luck—activate your Incense, and you'll see more of these intriguing fish-like Pokémon that resemble a mix of a piranha and an angler fish. Personally, I find Bruxish a tad unsettling, but if you're into that sort of thing, this is your chance to catch them!

Keep an eye out for Flabébé, as the regional flower variations might appear in the wild. Depending on your location, you could encounter a variety of colors, and if luck is on your side, you might even spot the rare White Flower Flabébé or Orange Flower Flabébé.

Don't overlook the Field Research tasks; completing them will net you a stash of Stardust. Plus, the Timed Research offers fantastic rewards like Incense, Four Rare Candies, and encounters with event-themed Pokémon, along with other goodies. Trainers in India, keep an eye out for regional bonuses that add an extra layer of excitement to your experience!
