Pikachu is the iconic Pokémon in the entire franchise. But besides the usual version that Ash traveled with, there are also some more unique. And of course, we are talking about Cosplay Pikachu, which can have different Moves depending on the outfit you are wearing. Fortunately, Niantic added one of the versions of this Pikachu to Pokémon Go, so next we will tell you how to get a Pikachu Ph.D.

As the name suggests, Pikachu Ph.D. Is dressed in doctor's clothes, namely a lab coat and cute spiral glasses. But to add it to your Pokédex, you will have to put in significant effort.

How to Get Pikachu Ph.D. In Pokémon Go

Pikachu Ph.D. Debuted on February 29, 2024 in Pokemon Go, causing many players to target it. However, although it can be obtained in a fairly simple way, it will take you several weeks or even months. So, to encounter Pikachu Ph.D. In Pokémon Go, you must get a Platinum Medal in the PokeStop Showcase rankings.

These small events do not require you to engage in battles or other complex activities. Instead, you need to find a PokeStop with a Showcase event and place the Pokemon there that meets the requirements. For example, this can be any of the largest Fairy-type Pokémon. At the end of the event, among all the Pokemon, the one who best meets the requirements will win. Thus, you need to collect 100 victories for the Platinum Medal.

Pokemon GO can get a Shiny Stunky and Shiny Skuntank in the wild by following this detailed guide.

It is important to note that Trainers can only participate in three of these events at a time. Therefore, you should choose those in which you have the greatest chance of winning. We also recommend that you use a little trick that will help you get your Pikachu Ph.D faster. When your Pokemon is in a PokeStop Showcase, you can replace it with a more suitable one without visiting that PokeStop:

  • Click on the binoculars button on the right side of the screen and go to the Today tab.
  • Then scroll down to Showcases and tap on the Pokemon you want.
  • After that, press the Enter Different Pokemon button and select the one you want.

This way, you can quickly replace your Pokemon if you catch a more suitable one. However, the Platinum medal is still a difficult goal. Be prepared that it will take you many days to complete this challenge. However, while earning the remaining Medals on the way to Platinum, Trainers will also be able to receive items inspired by Pikachu, Ph.D., namely:

  • Bronze Medal (10 Wins) - Pikachu Ph.D. Headband
  • Silver Medal (25 Wins) - Pikachu Ph.D. Glasses
  • Gold Medal (50 Wins) - Pikachu Ph.D. Pose
  • Platinum Medal (100 Wins) - Encounter with Pikachu Ph.D.

That's all you need to know about how to get a Pikachu Ph.D. In Pokémon Go. This Pokemon certainly looks charming and deserves to be in your collection. Therefore, we recommend that you start participating in PokeStop Showcase events as soon as possible.
