Fashion Week 2021 kicks off on the world of Pokemon GO today and that means a new and exciting event is underway. Trainers have a lot to keep track of during this event and one of the biggest priorities for a lot of players is going to be securing the new Pokedex entry.
The helps mark the debut of Furfrou in the mobile AR game and Pokemon GO trainers can catch the Pokemon while they are out enjoying the Fashion Week features, bonuses, and Special Research.
Once Furfrou has been captured, some trainers may want to experiment with changing its form (altering its trim). This is a brand new mechanic for the mobile AR game and there’s a new process for players to follow. Changing forms is going to require spending some precious resources, but some trainers will likely want to experiment with the option anyway...
How To Use The Form-Change Mechanic
Furfrou’s debut in Pokémon GO also marks the arrival of a new feature that will allow you to change the forms of certain Pokémon. Follow these steps to change Furfrou’s Trim!
- Furfrou begins in its Natural Trim.
- Select Furfrou in your Pokémon storage and then tap the ‘Change Form‘ button to bring up a menu that lists the available Trims.
- Select your preferred Trim.
- Changing your Furfrou from one Trim to any other Trim will cost 25 Furfrou Candy and 10,000 Stardust.
Currently Available Trims
- Natural Form: Available in the wild globally
- Matron Trim: Available as a form change globally
- Dandy Trim: Available as a form change globally

That’s all there is to it. The process is simple enough, though it is a bit expensive considering how valuable Stardust is in the game. Some endgame trainers have an hundreds of thousands saved up so, so 10,000 here and there won’t be a big deal, but average players may not have quite as much of the precious resource to spare.4
