Pok¨Śmon Go event Pok¨Śmon list: All costume Pok¨Śmon, including party hat Pok¨Śmon, flower crown Pok¨Śmon and every Pikachu costume explained
Everything you need to know about the special costume Pok¨Śmon in Pokemon Go.
Event costume Pokémon in Pokémon Go are special versions of certain Pokémon, which can be caught wearing a costume. This can be anything from a party hat to a deerstalker to what we're meant to believe is a flower crown.
Event costume Pokémon are released as part of an in-game event in Pokémon Go, such as a Community Day or a tie in event for a holiday like Halloween.
Each event costume Pokémon is very collectable, especially since there are, like regular Pokémon, shiny versions of these special Pokémon.

Pichu event costumes in Pokémon Go
There is a good selection of costumed Pichus for you to collect in Pokémon Go.
Costumed Pichu can only be found in eggs that are collected during the event period they're connected to. This means that, if you hold onto one of these eggs, it's possible that you might hatch a Pichu outside of an event.
Typically Pichu can be found in 7km, but it's always a good idea to check the specifics of the event just in case they're appearing in additional egg pools. This will make your task of tracking down that special Pichu a lot easier.
Here are all the costumed Pichu's that are currently available:
| Costume | First Appearance | |
|---|---|---|
| Santa Hat | Holiday 2016 Event (12th December to January 2017) - 5km eggs | 
|
| Party Hat (Purple) | Pokémon Day 2018 (February 2018) - 2km eggs | 
|

|

Cherry Blossom costume Pokémon in Pokémon Go
The Cherry Blossom costume in Pokémon Go is a set of two cherry blossoms which sit upon a Pokémon’s head in a similar manner to the Flower Crowns.
Cherry Blossom Pokémon were first introduced as part of the Spring into Spring 2023 event in April 2023. Pokémon wearing this costume can be evolved, so, if you have a Cherry Blossom Pikachu, it can be evolved into a Cherry Blossom Raichu.
When it comes to evolving Cherry Blossom Eevee, you can either use the Eeveelution name trick or, if you’ve already used the trick, the other evolution methods for this special Pokémon.
For Cherry Blossom Vaporeon, Jolteon and Flareon, you’ll have to keep evolving Cherry Blossom Eevee until you get the one you want. Meanwhile, the Gen 2 Eeveelutions - Espeon and Umbreon - require walking with Eevee for 10km before evolving it either during the day or at night depending on which one you want.
For a Cherry Blossom Glaceon, you’ll need to be near a PokéStop where a Glacial Lure Module has been used, while, for a Leafeon wearing this costume, you need to be near a PokéStop with an active Mossy Lure Module.
Finally, for Cherry Blossom Sylveon, you need to earn 70 Buddy hearts, bringing your chosen Eevee up to Great Buddy Level, before conducting the evolution.
Remember - all of these evolutions also require 25 Eevee Candy.
Below you’ll find all of the Cherry Blossom Pokémon currently released in Pokémon Go:

Christmas event costumes in Pokémon Go
Every year Pokémon Go has a Christmas event as part of their end of year celebrations and, as part of this event, they release a collection of event costume Pokémon for a limited period.

The Eeveelution name trick can be used to obtain these costume Pokémon, but, remember, the name trick can only be used once. This means, if you've already used the name trick, you'll have to use the evolution methods listed below to obtain these Holiday Hat Eeveelutions.

Flower Crown Pokémon in Pokémon Go
Flower crowns in Pokémon Go are not flower crowns, they are flower hair clips; crowns encircle a head, not hoover awkwardly above the right eye.
Notably, it's possible to evolve a flower crown Eeevee, which, if you're not using an eeveelution trick, will result in a random flower crown eeveelution.
The easiest way to ensure you get the eeveelution you desire is to use the Eevee evolution name trick. This, however, only works once, so, if you've already used it to add that specific eeveelution to your Pokédex, then you need to try another method.
If you're aiming for either an Espeon or Umbreon, then you'll need to walk with the Eevee you wish to evolve as your buddy for 10km. Once you've done this, evolving this specific Eevee during the day will reward you with an Espeon or, at night, an Umbreon.
For a Leafeon or Glaceon, it's time to use those special lures at your nearest PokéStop. Placing a Mossy Lure Module will allow you to evolve the Eevee into a Leafeon, while a Glacial Lure Module will transform it into a Glaceon.

Go City Safari event costumes in Pokémon Go
The Go City Safari events in Pokémon Go are a smaller version of the yearly Go Fest events, but focused in a specific real world location. This means, if you want to partake in the event, you need to purchase a ticket for the event and then travel to the location it is being held in.
While these events have been running for a number of years, 2023 was the first time an exclusive costume Pokémon was released as part of these events. The Pokémon in question is Explorer Hat Eevee and to get this costume Pokémon you had to attend one of the Go City Safari events held in 2023, completing the first step of the special research quest you obtained by doing so.
At the time of writing in July 2023, it's unknown whether Explorer Hat Eevee, or any future Go City Safari costume Pokémon, will be made available outside of these events.
Here are the Go City Safari costume Pokémon:
| Costume | First Appearance | None |
|---|---|---|
| Explorer Hat Eevee | Go City Safari in Seoul (South Korea), Barcelona (Spain) and Mexico City (Mexico) (October 2023) - City Safari Special Research |
