Pokemon Day 2025 may have passed, but The Pokemon Company continues to delight fans with exciting new content. A thrilling event is currently running in *Pokemon GO*, introducing the adorable yet powerful Kubfu to the mobile game. Here's your guide to adding Kubfu to your *Pokemon GO* collection.
How to Catch Kubfu in Pokemon GO
The Might and Mastery event is now live in *Pokemon GO*, bringing a host of new features and, most importantly, the introduction of the Wushu Pokemon. Since the debut of Kubfu and its evolution, Urshifu, in the *Pokemon Sword and Shield* DLC, fans have been eager to see them in *Pokemon GO*. Now, you can secure your very own Kubfu by completing a series of tasks found in the Special Research tab under the "Might and Mastery" section. Here's a rundown of what you 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 |
Upon completing these three tasks, Kubfu will appear for you to catch, along with a rewarding 891 XP. Remember, the Special Research is available only until Tuesday, June 3, 2025, at 9:59 AM local time, so don't miss your chance to add Kubfu to your team.
Can You Catch More Than One Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
For those who can't get enough of Kubfu, *Pokemon GO* offers a solution. By purchasing the Paid Special Research – Fuzzy Fighter pass for $8, you can access additional tasks that allow you to catch a second Kubfu. The pass comes with enticing rewards including:
- One Incense
- Two Premium Battle Passes
- One Star Piece
- Encounters with Season-themed Pokémon
- A rare encounter with a Dynamax Kubfu
However, this opportunity is also time-sensitive. The Fuzzy Fighter pass can be purchased until March 10, 2025, at 10 AM local time. Once bought, you can complete the tasks at your leisure.
Can You Evolve Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
Kubfu is undeniably cute, but for competitive players, the question of evolution to Urshifu is paramount. At present, it seems that evolving Kubfu into Urshifu isn't possible in *Pokemon GO*. However, given that Urshifu features on the loading screen for the Might and Mastery event, it's likely that this feature will be introduced in the future.
That's your complete guide to catching Kubfu in *Pokemon GO*. For more rewards, check out all the free item promo codes available for the game in March 2025.
