How to Get the Different Eeveelutions in Pokemon Go
Eevee, one of the most unique and beloved Pokémon in the franchise, has long been a fan favorite due to its multiple evolutions, known collectively as Eeveelutions. In Pokemon Go, obtaining these evolutions can be both exciting and challenging. With eight distinct Eeveelutions to collect, each with its own unique type and requirements, players must strategize carefully to complete their collection. This guide will walk you through the steps to obtain each of the different Eeveelutions in Pokemon Go, ensuring you can diversify your team with these incredible Pokémon.
1. Vaporeon
Requirement: Use a Water Stone on Eevee.
Vaporeon, the Water-type Eeveelution, is one of the most straightforward to obtain. Simply acquire a Water Stone through various in-game activities, such as spinning PokéStops, completing research tasks, or purchasing them from the in-game shop. Once you have the stone, navigate to Eevee’s profile and select “Evolve.”
2. Jolteon
Requirement: Use a Thunder Stone on Eevee.
Jolteon, the Electric-type Eeveelution, is another evolution that requires a specific stone. Like the Water Stone, Thunder Stones can be obtained through similar means. Once you have one, evolve Eevee to add Jolteon to your collection.
3. Flareon
Requirement: Use a Fire Stone on Eevee.
Flareon, the Fire-type Eeveelution, rounds out the trio of stone-evolved Eeveelutions. Use a Fire Stone, which can also be acquired through PokéStops, research, or the shop, to evolve Eevee into Flareon.
4. Espeon
Requirement: Reach maximum friendship with Eevee during the day and then evolve it.
Espeon, the Psychic-type Eeveelution, is the first of the friendship-based evolutions. To evolve Eevee into Espeon, you must first raise your friendship level with it to the maximum. This can be done by keeping Eevee as your buddy, feeding it treats, and completing battles together. Once your friendship is at its peak, evolve Eevee during the day to get Espeon.
5. Umbreon
Requirement: Reach maximum friendship with Eevee at night and then evolve it.
Umbreon, the Dark-type Eeveelution, is the counterpart to Espeon. Similar to Espeon, you must first maximize your friendship with Eevee. However, unlike Espeon, you must evolve Eevee at night to obtain Umbreon. Ensure your device’s time is set correctly, as the in-game time determines whether it’s day or night.
6. Leafeon
Requirement: Evolve Eevee near a Moss Rock.
Leafeon, the Grass-type Eeveelution, is tied to a specific location in the game. You must evolve Eevee near a Moss Rock, which are typically found in forested areas or parks. Use an Incense to spawn a Moss Rock if you can’t find one nearby, then evolve Eevee to get Leafeon.
7. Glaceon
Requirement: Evolve Eevee near an Ice Rock.
Glaceon, the Ice-type Eeveelution, is obtained similarly to Leafeon but requires an Ice Rock instead. These rocks are often found in colder climates or near bodies of water. Use an Incense if necessary, then evolve Eevee to add Glaceon to your team.
8. Sylveon
Requirement: Earn 70 Candy and level up Eevee when it knows a Fairy-type move.
Sylveon, the Fairy-type Eeveelution, is the most recent addition to the Eeveelutions family. To evolve Eevee into Sylveon, you must first teach it a Fairy-type move, such as Baby-Doll Eyes. Once Eevee knows a Fairy move, you can evolve it by leveling up and using 70 Eevee Candy.
Tips for Obtaining Eeveelutions:
Use Nicknames: While not necessary, naming your Eevee after its desired evolution (e.g., “Pyro” for Flareon) can help you keep track of your progress.
Save Candy: Eevee Candy is essential for evolving and powering up your Eeveelutions. Make sure to stock up before
