The oldest players of Pokémon GO will remember the uncertainty about the initial evolutions of eevee during the first weeks of app launch in iOS and Android, at first, totally random; yes, yes to Eevee we gave him one Fire stone evolved to Flareon, if we gave him a Pieta Thunder evolved to Joltreon and, finally, if we gave him a Rock water became Vaporeon. Even so, over time it was discovered infallible trick with which to choose the evolution of Eevee without depending on other elements; We only had to have an Eevee, change the name to a specific one and give him the respective evolution candies. Below we offer you all the tricks to choose the evolution of Eevee in Pokémon GO in 2019, including the last to arrive as Leafeon and Glaceon.
How to choose Eevee evolutions in Pokémon GO
If you want to choose the evolution of Eevee in Pokémon GO you have to rename the Eevee you want to evolve with certain names and give them the 25 candies of its kind to evolve. It's about a easter eggs that Pokémon GO players themselves discovered over time and that Niantic kept a secret since the launch of the app to iOS and Android mobiles. Luckily, Eevee are quite common, so we can obtain all their evolutions with relative ease; Below we offer you the names that we must give to Eevee to choose its evolution:
- Sparky to evolve into Jolteon
- rainer to evolve into Vaporeon
- Pyro to evolve into Flareon
- sakura to evolve into Espeon
- Size to evolve into Umbreon
- Linnea to evolve into Leafeon
- Rhea to evolve into Glaceon
Once we have our Eevee ready to evolve just we must change his name to one of the previous names to obtain the evolution we want; Once we have renamed our Eevee we must restart Pokémon GO and give him the 25 candies of its kind so that it evolves, thus obtaining the desired Pokémon. Even so, there is another trick to evolve an Eevee into Espeon or Umbreon without the name method.
How to evolve Espeon or Umbreon without changing the name
There is another method to evolve an Eevee into Espeon or Umbreon without the trick of changing the name, although it is much more laborious than the previous one, which is none other than walk with Eevee as a companion. To do this, follow the following steps:
- Select an Eevee as a companion
- Walk 10 kilometers with said Eevee as a companion
- Get all 25 Eevee type candies
- If we decide to evolve the Eevee during the day, it will evolve into Espeon; If we decide to evolve the Eevee during the night, it will evolve into Umbreon
Of course, we must walk 10 exact kilometers, get two candies during the process and keep Eevee as a companion when it evolves to ensure the result.
How to evolve Leafeon and Glaceon with Bait Modules
With the arrival of the Sinnoh Pokémon, Niantic has made available to players three new Bait Modules, among which are Glacier and Mossy, two types of Bait Modules that will activate Eevee's evolutions Glaceon and Leafeon, respectively.
To do this, we will only need the 25 Eevee type candies strictly speaking, go to a Pokestop and spin your disc, obtaining the chosen evolution according to the Bait Module that we have used.
Types of Eevee Evolution
Below you can consult the characteristics of Eevee evolutions according to its evolution:
- Jolteon It is electric type
- Vaporeon It is water type
- Flareon It is fire type
- Umbreon It is of a sinister type
- Espeon It is psychic type
- Leafeon It is plant type
- Glaceon It is ice type
Possible solutions if we fail to evolve Eevee
- The new name is not spelled correctly: It is essential that the new name is written correctly, respecting the initial capital letter and with the same letters.
- We have already changed the name before- The name trick only works once for each type of Pokémon; We can only get a Jolteon, a Vaporeon, a Flaeron, an Espeon and an Umbreon with this method.
- We haven't walked the 10 kilometers: If we want to evolve our Eevee with the second method we must walk exactly 10 kilometers.
- We have already gotten an Espeon or an Umbreon with the second method: The second method only works at 100% once; The following times the results will not be guaranteed.
