Winter Holiday Part 1

The first part of the winter holidays runs from 18 to 24 December and debuts Sudowoodo and Charjabug in holiday attire, which appear in the wild and in three-star raids. Charjabug in holiday attire can be evolved into a costumed Vikavolt near a Magnetic Lure Module. 7 km Eggs offer a better shot at shiny costumed Pichu and Cubchoo, and the Winter Holiday 2025 GO Pass covers both parts of the event.
