Pokemon Day 2025 may have come and gone, but The Pokemon Company continues to delight fans with new events in *Pokemon GO*. The latest addition is the adorable yet powerful Kubfu, which players can now catch during the Might and Mastery event. 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 currently live in *Pokemon GO*, introducing a host of exciting features, but the star of the show is undoubtedly the Wushu Pokemon, Kubfu. Fans have eagerly awaited the arrival of Kubfu and its evolution, Urshifu, ever since they debuted in the *Pokemon Sword and Shield* DLC. Now, the opportunity is here, and all you need to do to get your hands on Kubfu is complete a few tasks.
To catch Kubfu, navigate to the Special Research tab in *Pokemon GO* and look for the "Might and Mastery" section. Here's a breakdown of the tasks you need to complete:
| **Research Task** | **Reward** |
| Explore 3 km | 15 Poke Balls |
| Defeat 3 Team GO Rocket members | 5 Revives |
| Use a super effective Charged Attack | Use a super effective Charged Attack |
Once you've successfully completed all three tasks, Kubfu will appear, ready for you to catch. You'll also earn 891 XP for your efforts. Remember, the Special Research for Kubfu is available only until Tuesday, June 3, 2025, at 9:59 AM local time, so don't miss out on this limited-time opportunity.
Can You Catch More Than One Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
If one Kubfu isn't enough for you, *Pokemon GO* has you covered with the Paid Special Research – Fuzzy Fighter pass. For $8, you can access additional tasks that allow you to catch a second Kubfu. The pass also offers other rewards, including:
- One Incense
- Two Premium Battle Passes
- One Star Piece
- Encounters with Season-themed Pokémon
- A rare encounter with a Dynamax Kubfu
The Fuzzy Fighter pass is available for purchase until March 10, 2025, at 10 AM local time. Once purchased, the tasks remain in your game, giving you plenty of time to complete them at your leisure.
Can You Evolve Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
While Kubfu is undeniably adorable, competitive players are keen to know if they can evolve it into Urshifu. Currently, it doesn't seem possible to evolve Kubfu in *Pokemon GO*. However, given that Kubfu's evolution is featured in the loading screen for the Might and Mastery event, there's a good chance this feature will be introduced in the future.
And there you have it—everything you need to know about catching Kubfu in *Pokemon GO*. For more exciting content, check out the free item promo codes available for the game in March 2025.
