Thanks to Pokemon GO's Fashion Week for 2021, the Kalos region's pampered poodle Furfou is now available in-game, including many of its different haircuts in separate forms.

Although certain forms of Furfrou are dependent on certain regions, the Pokemon's standard form is currently available in the wild globally. This gives Pokemon GO trainers ample opportunity to catch the fashionable Pokemon before Fashion Week ends on 28 September 2021 at 8:00 pm local time. It shouldn't take too much to spot a Furfrou in the wild during this time, as its spawn rate is increased to coincide with its Pokemon GO debut as well as Fashion Week.

Since Furfrou is currently popping up substantially within Pokemon GO's wilds, playing the game for a decent length of time and checking out different locations is a great way to encounter Furfrou. For a little extra help, players may want to consider using an Incense or attaching a standard Lure Module to a nearby Pokestop which should attract Furfrou spawns over time, with Incense being more effective if the player is actively moving.

Once players have encountered Furfrou, the procedure is fairly simple. Make the best throw on the target as possible, adding spins where one can. For good measure, Pokemon GO trainers can use higher-grade Pokeballs such as Great or Ultra Balls to help secure their catch along with feeding the Furfrou berries, specifically Razz Berries. These methods should end with a brand new Furfrou for players in no time.

In addition to catching its standard form, players can change the form of their Furfrou depending on what region of the world they are in. These forms are purely cosmetic, but can allow Pokemon GO trainers to sport an interesting flair for their newly-caught Pokemon.
