Pokémon Go is hosting its yearly Fashion Week event, shoving more Pokémon in silly costumes to clog up your storage space. The event runs from Nov. 15-19, and it includes Timed Research, a Collection Challenge, and many other different ways to nab these fashionista Pokémon.

During the event, candy earned from catching Pokémon will be doubled, and there’ll be a higher chance to get XL candy from catching Pokémon. Shiny Gothita is also making its debut, alongside shiny Wooper, Quagsire, and Dragonite in outfits.
