- "For US$2.00 (or the equivalent pricing tier in your local currency), you'll be able to access the Fuecoco Community Day–exclusive Special Research. Complete the research for even more rewards, including a Premium Battle Pass, a Rare Candy XL, additional encounters with Fuecoco, and three encounters with Fuecoco that have a Seasonal Special Background.

Don't forget: you're now able to purchase and gift tickets to any of your friends that you've achieved a Friendship level of Great Friends or higher with. To gift a ticket, tap the Special Research ticket in the in-game shop, then tap the Gift button instead of the Buy button. Tickets are nonrefundable (subject to applicable law and the exceptions set forth in the Terms of Service). Please note that this Special Research will not include an in-game medal and will not feature a story."
- Community Day Special Background Timed Research: The new Special Background Timed Research feature will continue with this Community Day. Niantic writes:
- "Keep Community Day going with a Timed Research opportunity that will last for a week following the event! Trainers who log in during March Community Day will receive Timed Research that awards an encounter with a Fuecoco that has a Seasonal Special Background. You'll even have an increased chance of encountering a Shiny Fuecoco when you complete these Timed Research tasks! Plus, you can evolve Crocalor (Fuecoco's Evolution) during the week following the event to get a Skeledirge that knows the Charged Attack Blast Burn! Please note that Timed Research expires.
