Pokemon Day 2025 might be behind us, but The Pokemon Company isn't done showering its fans with exciting new content. A thrilling new event in *Pokemon GO* introduces the adorable yet formidable Kubfu. Here's your guide on how to snag this Wushu Pokemon in the mobile game.
How to Catch Kubfu in Pokemon GO
The Might and Mastery event is currently live in *Pokemon GO*, bringing a slew of new features to enhance your gameplay. The highlight, undoubtedly, is the long-awaited arrival of Kubfu, the Wushu Pokemon. Fans have eagerly anticipated the inclusion of Kubfu and its evolution, Urshifu, since their debut in the *Pokemon Sword and Shield* DLC. Now, the opportunity to add Kubfu to your collection is just a few tasks away.
To catch Kubfu, navigate to the Special Research tab in *Pokemon GO* and locate the "Might and Mastery" section. Here's a comprehensive list of the tasks you'll need to complete:
| 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 make its appearance, and you'll earn 891 XP for adding this Pokemon 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?
For those who desire more than one Kubfu, *Pokemon GO* offers the Paid Special Research – Fuzzy Fighter pass. For $8, you'll unlock additional Research tasks and the chance to catch a second Kubfu. The pass also provides:
- One Incense
- Two Premium Battle Passes
- One Star Piece
- Encounters with Season-themed Pokémon
- A rare encounter with a Dynamax Kubfu
Be aware, the Fuzzy Fighter pass is available for purchase only until March 10, 2025, at 10 AM local time. Once purchased, the tasks remain in the game, allowing you more time to complete them.
Can You Evolve Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
Kubfu's cuteness is undeniable, but for competitive players, the question remains: can you evolve it into Urshifu? As of now, evolving Kubfu into Urshifu isn't an option in *Pokemon GO*, but with its evolution featured on the Might and Mastery event's loading screen, future updates might bring this feature to the game.
That wraps up how you can catch Kubfu in *Pokemon GO*. For more goodies, check out the free item promo codes available for the mobile game in March 2025.
