Eevee in Pokémon GO: choose all its evolutions with these tricks [2021]

The Pokémon with the most evolutions is one of the most desired. We help you choose Jolteon, Vaporeon, Flareon, Umbreon, Espeon, Glaceon or Leafeon.

Eevee is an icon of the Pokémon universe. Introduced in the first generation, back in Kanto, we are facing a species with special genetics capable of evolving into one creature or another depending on the conditions and the evolutionary object to which we submit it. The methods to evolve Eevee in Pokémon GO are different from what we are used to, so we are going to see below the method to get Flareon, Vaporeon, Jolteon, Umbreon, Espeon, Glaceon or Leafeon.

How to capture Eevee in Pokémon GO?

The first thing we have to say about Pokémon # 133 in the National Pokédex is that it is an original Kanto species, Generation I. It was there that its first three Electric, Water and Fire type evolutions were introduced (Jolteon, Vaporeon and Flareon) to, in Generation II, introduce his Psychic and Sinister-type variants (Espeon and Umbreon). From there, a jump to Generation IV with the Grass and Ice-type options (Leafeon and Glaceon) to finally welcome the last member of the family, Fairy-type (Sylveon), in Generation VI. Its capture ratio is 40% under normal conditions.

To capture Eevee in the wild we have two options: either find it in the wild or through the hatching of a 5 km Egg (it can come out shiny).

In Pokémon GO, Eevee maintains Normal type, so it is weak to Fighting type and resistant to Ghost type. To evolve, 25 candies are always necessary; regardless of conditions. We believe it is necessary to emphasize this because the candies are mandatory to start the evolution process. Its base stats are 104 ATK, 114 DEF, and 146 Stamina, which are pretty modest and not worth maintaining. For this reason, evolving to this species is highly recommended if we want to use it in the GO Fighting League or in a Raid.

List of nicknames to choose Eevee in Pokémon GO

One of the methods to evolve your Eevee into any of the seven eeveelutions currently available in Pokémon GO (only Sylveon, from Generation VI, Kalos is missing) is by changing the nickname; but it only works for the first time. After the first change, when you capture new Eevee, this trick will not work.

• Leafeon: Linnea
• Espeon: Sakura
• Vaporeon: Rainer
• Jolteon: Sparky
• Flareon: Pyro
• Umbreon: Tamao
• Glaceon: Rea

Evolution methods for Eevee in Pokémon GO: stones and bait modules

Once the trick no longer works for us, we will have to resort to the conventional method: subjecting Eevee to the exposure of an evolutionary stone or bait modules. Depending on the desired evolution, getting any of the evolutions in Pokémon GO strictly depends on the stone we use and the context in which we do it. Let’s take a look at each case individually so you can understand it at a glance.

How to evolve Espeon or Umbreon

• Espeon or Umbreon: getting one of the members of this couple is quite simple and takes exercise with it. First thing: we chose Eevee as a partner and walked with him 10 km. Now – and ensuring that we have at least 25 candies – we must choose whether to evolve it by day or by night. If we choose by day, the result will be Espeon; if we do it at night, the resulting evolution will be Umbreon.

How to evolve Leafeon or Glaceon

• Leafeon or Glaceon: to obtain the new generation variants we have to opt for the bait modules. In this case, it is not necessary to walk or use Eevee as a companion, but to make sure you have a Mossy Bait Module (200 Pokécoins in the Shop or reward in research missions) to get Leafeon; or a Glacier Bait Module (200 Pokécoins in the Shop or reward in research missions) to get Glaceon.

How to evolve Vaporeon, Jolteon or Flareon

• Vaporeon, Jolteon and Flareon: in these three cases there is no possibility of choosing beyond the trick that we can apply only once per account: it is random. When we subject Eevee without having walked 10 km to an evolution with 25 candies, the result will be completely random.

Sylveon: When is it coming to Pokémon GO?

Sylveon is the last species of the Eevee evolutions introduced in the Pokémon saga and, at the moment, it is not available in the game because Pokémon GO currently has the first five generations (plus the regional slopes of Alola and Galar as an exception). The next full generation to appear in the Niantic title, if the order established thus far is maintained, is Generation VI, where Sylveon is originally located. However, it is to be expected that either during 2021 we will have the emergence of more indigenous species from the Kalos region and, therefore, eventually Sylveon will be introduced with its own evolutionary method. What will it be? That’s something we can’t even guess right now.
