Pokemon Day 2025 might be in the rearview mirror, but The Pokemon Company isn't done surprising its fans just yet. A fresh event has hit *Pokemon GO*, giving players a chance to add the adorable yet formidable Kubfu to their collections. Here's your guide on how to snag Kubfu in *Pokemon GO*.
How to Catch Kubfu in Pokemon GO
The Pokemon GO community has been buzzing with excitement over the Might and Mastery event, which not only brings new features to the game but also introduces the Wushu Pokemon, Kubfu. Fans have been eager for Kubfu and its evolution, Urshifu, to make their debut in Pokemon GO ever since they were featured in the Pokemon Sword and Shield DLC. Now, the wait is over, and you can get your hands on Kubfu by completing a series of tasks.
To catch Kubfu, head to the Special Research tab and navigate to the "Might and Mastery" section. Here's what you'll need to do:
| **Research Task** | **Reward** |
| Explore 3 km | 15 Poke Balls |
| Defeat 3 Team GO Rocket members | 5 Revives |
| Use a supereffective Charged Attack | Use a super effective Charged Attack |
Once you've completed these three quests, Kubfu will appear, and you'll earn 891 XP for adding it to your collection. Remember, this Special Research is only available until Tuesday, June 3, 2025, at 9:59 AM local time, so don't miss your chance to catch Kubfu.
Can You Catch More Than One Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
If one Kubfu isn't enough for you, Pokemon GO has you covered. By purchasing the Paid Special Research – Fuzzy Fighter pass for $8, you'll unlock additional tasks and the opportunity to catch a second Kubfu. Here's what the pass includes:
- One Incense
- Two Premium Battle Passes
- One Star Piece
- Encounters with Season-themed Pokémon
- A rare encounter with a Dynamax Kubfu
Keep in mind, the Fuzzy Fighter pass is only available for purchase until March 10, 2025, at 10 AM local time. Once you've bought it, the tasks won't disappear, so you can take your time completing them.
Can You Evolve Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
Kubfu is undeniably cute, but for those looking to compete, evolving it into Urshifu is the ultimate goal. As of now, it doesn't seem possible to evolve Kubfu in Pokemon GO, but given that Urshifu is featured on the loading screen for the Might and Mastery event, it's likely that this feature will be added in the future.
And that's everything you need to know about getting Kubfu in Pokemon GO. For more, check out all the free item promo codes for the mobile game in March 2025.
