Pokemon Go welcomes Bruxish and special Flabebe in upcoming Festival of Colors update

If you're still buzzing from all 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 from March 13th to March 17th for this colorful extravaganza, where you'll discover delightful surprises at PokeStops and enjoy event bonuses that you won't want to miss.

During the event, your Lure Modules will last an impressive three hours, and you'll encounter Bruxish more frequently when you use Incense. Personally, I find Bruxish a bit on the creepy side, but if you're a fan of fishy Pokémon that resemble a blend of a piranha and an angler fish, this is your golden opportunity to catch them.

Depending on where you're located, you might also come across Flabébé in a variety of colors in the wild. If luck is on your side, you could even spot a rare White Flower Flabébé and Orange Flower Flabébé.

Don't forget to complete Field Research tasks to gather Stardust. With Timed Research, your rewards will include Incense, Four Rare Candies, and encounters with event-themed Pokémon, along with other exciting goodies. Trainers in India can also benefit from regional bonuses!

Speaking of bonuses and freebies, be sure to check out our list of Pokémon Go codes for more rewards.

Ready to dive into the fun? You can join the festivities by downloading the game from the App Store or Google Play. It's free-to-play with in-app purchases available.
