The adorable Poodle Pokemon Furfrou has several forms in Pokemon Go, each one of them with a distinctive fashion sense.

However, as several forms are related to special events or specific regions, obtaining them all can be quite difficult depending on where you call home. Players located in central continental counties will have a particularly tough time, as they’ll need to travel farther.

So, here’s what makes the pooch special, how to unlock all the Furfrou forms in Pokemon Go, and how to switch between them in-game.

How to unlock all Furfrou forms in Pokemon Go

Furfrou has a total of 10 forms (or Trims), including its Normal Form. While some of these are available worldwide, most of them are only available in specific regions.

Note that you don’t need to catch Furfrou in a specific region to be able to change its form; you just have to be there yourself — so here’s how to get them all:

How to change Furfrou’s form

Changing Furfrou’s forms in Pokemon Go works a lot like evolutions.

Now you’ll have a stylish new Furfrou to show off to the world! It will cost you the same amount of Candy and Stardust each time you change the form, so make sure you’re happy with your choice before confirming.

Which is the best Furfrou form?

Furfrou’s forms are only an aesthetic change with no impact on stats or gameplay. That means you can pick whichever Trim you prefer since none will put you at an actual advantage or disadvantage. Just think of it as taking the Poodle Pokemon to the groomer for a fresh cut and style.

Which Furfrou form is the rarest?

Pharoah Trim is Furfrou’s rarest form, as it’s exclusive to Egypt. Heart Trim Furfrou is also pretty rare since it can only be obtained during specific events, though when those events are active, it’s easily obtainable and accessible to players worldwide.

How to unlock Furfrou’s Heart Trim form

Furfrou’s Heart Trim form was initially made available during the Valentine’s Day 2022 event. It worked a little differently from the other Trims, as it was event-exclusive instead of region-exclusive.

Heart Trim Furfrou was also featured during the Carnival of Love event from February 13, 2024, to February 15, 2024.

What is so special about Furfrou?

Furfrou was the first-ever Pokemon with a form-switching ability to be added to Pokemon Go back in 2021 during the Season of Mischief Fashion Week event, where trainers could style the ‘mon with one of the many different Trims available to adjust its appearance. 

That’s everything you need to get all of Furfrou’s forms in Pokemon Go. You can check out some of our other guides including the best Eeveelutions, the best Mega Evolutions, or even how to catch Ditto or the rarest Pokemon in Pokemon Go.
