Every Costume Pokemon in Pokemon Go

pokemon go costume pokemonThe Pokemon Company / Niantic

Costume Pokemon are some of the most sought-after ‘mon in Pokemon Go after Shinies, and it’s easy to understand why. Come on – who doesn’t want Pikachu in a Pop Star outfit? 

Costume Pokemon are usually released to mark a special event such as Halloween, Christmas, or Go Fest

While their stats aren’t any better or worse than regular ‘mon, it’s their adorable appearance that makes them so popular.

Even better is that they can also sometimes come in Shiny versions, making them all the more desirable. From Mimikyu Pikachu to Holiday Cubchoo, Pokemon Go has a whole roster of Costume Pokemon.
