Pokémon Go ‘Fashion Week 2022’ event guide

Pokémon Go’s “Fashion Week” event is back, running from Sept. 27 until Oct. 3, 2022. Last year, the event introduced Furfrou, the poodle Pokémon, but this time it unveils Furfrou’s Shiny form, brings back some Pokémon in fancy outfits, and adds Mareanie to the game.

Our Pokémon Go “Fashion Week” event guide lists out the spawns, Timed Research, and new Shiny Pokémon.
