How to Catch Kubfu in Pokemon GO
The Might and Mastery event is currently live in *Pokemon GO*, bringing a host of new features to the mobile game. The highlight, however, is the much-anticipated introduction of the Wushu Pokemon, Kubfu. Since its debut in the *Pokemon Sword and Shield* DLC, fans have been eagerly waiting for Kubfu and its evolution, Urshifu, to make their way into *Pokemon GO*. The wait is finally over, and with a few tasks, you can add Kubfu to your collection.
To get your hands on Kubfu, navigate to the Special Research tab in *Pokemon GO* and find the “Might and Mastery” section. Here's a detailed 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 all three tasks, Kubfu will appear, and you'll earn 891 XP upon adding it 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 out on your chance to catch Kubfu.
Can You Catch More Than One Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
If one Kubfu isn’t enough for you, *Pokemon GO* offers a solution. By purchasing the Paid Special Research – Fuzzy Fighter pass for $8, you unlock additional tasks and the opportunity to catch a second Kubfu. Here’s what the pass includes:
- One Incense
- Two Premium Battle Passes
- One Star Piece
- Encounters with Season-themed Pokémon
- A rare encounter with a Dynamax Kubfu
However, the Fuzzy Fighter pass is only available for purchase until March 10, 2025, at 10 AM local time. Once purchased, the tasks remain available, so there's no rush to complete them immediately.
Can You Evolve Kubfu in Pokemon GO?
While Kubfu is undoubtedly adorable, competitive players are curious about evolving it into Urshifu. As of now, evolution isn't possible, but given that Kubfu’s evolution is featured in the Might and Mastery event's loading screen, it’s likely that this feature will be added in the future.
