Fidough is an adorable Fairy type Pokémon with sweet buns for ears and a happy little face. Along with its equally adorable evolution, Dachsbun is one of the newest Pokémon that were added to the Pokédex as part of generation 9. As one of the newest Pokémon, it may come as no surprise that it hasn’t featured in Pokémon GO until now.

The Fidough Fetch event will run from 3💫 p.m. PST on January 3, ending at 7 p.m. on January 7.
