What Pokémon can you evolve with a moonstone? Special items for evolutions in Pokemon Go

And so, let's go straight to evolutions.

There are 5 types of evolution

First of all, it is through raising the level... Each form has an exact level at which it will evolve further. Once this level is reached, evolution begins. To do this, you need to train the Pokemon, through battles he gains experience points, which bring evolution closer. You can also use the rare candy, which instantly raises the level of the Pokémon by one. This type of evolution is quite long, training takes a lot of time. But there are ways to speed up this process, for example, with the help of the Exp.Share item, the Pokémon holding it will receive experience from the won battle, even if it did not participate in it. And if he did, he gets double the experience. This is handy for leveling weak Pokémon. The strong fight, and both they and the weaker Pokémon holding Exp.Share gain experience. Thus, you can raise the level of the Pokemon by several levels per battle, especially if the pumping goes after the end of the game, when you can fight with very strong wild Pokemon.

The second way is from happiness... When a Pokemon is happy, it begins to evolve. In games, for this, you must often use him in battles, raise his level, give him items. Sometimes the time of day is important. Some Pokémon evolve from happiness only during the day, others only at night, and some at any time of the day, but in different forms.

The third way is exchange. The two trainers change Pokémon, and the Pokémon can evolve.

The fourth way is evolution with the help of an object... It seems that this is the most easy way evolution, you can give desired item pokemon even at the first level, it still evolves. But the problem is that such items are very rare. And after evolution, the object disappears, that is, it cannot be reused. There are also options when the pokemon evolves only when raising the level, holding the desired item, or only when exchanging, again holding the desired item.

The fifth option - stones of evolution... They work the same way as other objects and are also rare. (dropped from bosses).

After the release of updates pokemon games GO, fans have noticed some changes and additional features in it. One of the most important innovations is that some Pokémon can no longer be improved with candy alone, as was the case in the original version. To evolve characters, you need special evolution stones. If you want to have exclusive ones in your collection, then this guide is for you! Let's take a look at which Pokémon can be transformed with the Sun and King's Stone.

Where can I find Pokemon GO evolution stones?

The only way to get your hands on evolutionary stones is to visit the PokeStops, and hope with your fingers crossed that the right stone fall on your head. On this moment there is no guaranteed way to get them differently. You can increase the chances of a lucky find by winding circles among a large cluster of PokeStops. Use this opportunity even if you need to travel to big cities! Combine your quest for evolutionary stones with other goals in the game, such as capturing new Pokémon or hatching eggs.

Sun stone

With the help of the sun stone, you can develop the "grass" Pokémon - Sunkern and Gloom. The first Pokemon is easier to evolve, you need 50 candy and a Sunstone, and you can transform Sunkern into Sunflora.

Gloom is a little more difficult to transform into Bellossom for several reasons. First, this requires 100 Oddish candies in addition to the Sunstone. Secondly, everyone who wants to collect complete collection Pokémon should know that Gloom can evolve into another Pokémon - Vileplume, and it will also cost 100 candies. Therefore, you will have to decide who to develop first.

The best way to get hold of Oddish and Sunkern candy is to use traditional methods: get them out of the egg, catch them, transform the duplicates into a professor, or assign the Pokemon as your buddy Pokemon. It will take quite a while, but it will be worth it to get the complete collection.

Royal stone

With the help of the King's Stone, you can evolve two "water" Pokémon - Slowpoke and Poliwhirl.

To transform Slowpoke into Slowking, you will need not only the Royal Stone, but 50 more Slowpoke candies. To find both water Pokémon and candy, you need to wander around public lakes and ponds and collect as many of them as possible.

Another aquatic Pokemon, Poliwhirl, can be transformed into two forms - Politoed and Poliwrath. Each evolution requires 100 Poliwag candies, and, of course, the Royal Stone. This is a large number, but with great perseverance and desire, players will be able to collect them and add unique pieces to their collection.

Pokemon GO is a role-playing game that is very popular among gamers. It is based on searching for locations of special virtual creatures - Pokemon using smartphones in real places of cities. Players can catch Pokémon, collect entire collections, train and develop these funny creatures, and fight other players.

For the most part Pokemon go keeps the same requirements and systems as found in other Pokemon games, but every now and then it mixes things up. One such instance is with the Sinnoh stone, a new addition to Pokemon Go for evolving classic Pokemon into their new 4th generation evolutions.

Pokemon Go is no stranger to evolution through items - we've seen evolutions involving items like the Sun Stone, King's Rock and Metal Coat items - but the Sinnoh stone is different in that it's an all-new item for Pokemon Go.

Pokemon Go Sinnoh Stone: how to get a sinnoh stone for evolution

The Sinnoh Stone is an all-new item in Pokemon Go, though mercifully it's obtained in a set, reliable way - and unlike other evolution stones, you don't have to rely on the random chance that it will crop up as a field research mission reward or drop from a Pokestop.

In order to get your hands on a Sinnoh Stone, you simply need to complete seven days worth of Field Research rewards... It doesn’t matter what missions you’re actually undertaking to get there - you simply need to complete seven days worth of quests, a regular goal for trainers anyway in catching that month’s limited-run field research Pokemon Encounter. When you do this, a Sinnoh Stone will drop as part of the reward.

The Pokemon Go Sinnoh Stone is likely to become available through other means later on, but for now this is the only way to obtain it ..

Pokemon that evolve using the Sinnoh Stone in Pokemon Go

As you’d expect, the Pokemon Go Sinnoh Stone allows classic Pokemon from previous generations to evolve into their new generation 4 forms. That also means these new evolutions have finally arrived into Pokemon Go. Let’s go over how it all works, starting with what Pokemon you can evolve. The following Pokemon can currently be evolved into all-new Sinnoh-region forms thanks to the Sinnoh Stone - though you’ll need candy too.

Below, here’s a list of who evolves, what from, plus how much candy will be needed alongside that Sinnoh Stone.

Classic pokemon	Evolves with	New evolution
Rhydon	100 Rhyhorn Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Rhyperior
Electabuzz	100 Elekid Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Electvire
Magmar	100 Magby Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Magmortar
Togetic	100 Togepi Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Togekiss
Misdreavus	100 Misdreavus Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Mismagius
Murkrow	100 Murkrow Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Honchkrow
Gilgar	100 Gilgar Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Gliscor
Sneasel	100 Sneasel Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Weavile
Porygon 2	100 Porygon Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Porygon-Z
Roselia	100 Budew Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Roserade
Dusclops	100 Duskull Candy & Sinnoh Stone	Dusknoir

Further gen 4 evolutions that likely use the Sinnoh Stone in the future

In addition to the Pokemon listed above, there’s actually a handful of further new Pokemon that also evolve from classics that as-yet are currently unaccounted for in Pokemon Go. We've listed them before in our full guide to the Pokemon Go gen 4 Pokemon list, but for the sake of expedience here’s a list of the remaining gen 4 evolutions that you might want to stockpile Sinnoh Stones towards.

It’s difficult to fully know what will happen in Pokemon Go for these remaining evolved forms - some are Eevee Evolutions and so probably won’t require stones. The evolutions above have typically required stones or specific methods in the main Pokemon Games - so it remains to be seen if all the remaining evolutions from gen 4 will also require a Pokemon Go Sinnoh Stone. Excluding the new Eevee Evolutions Leafeon and Glaceon, here’s the remaining gen 4 evolutions ...

• Magnezone (evolves from Magneton)
• Lickilicky (evolves from Lickitung)
• Tangrowth (evolves from Tangela)
• Ambipom (evolves from Aipom)
• Yanmega (evolves from Yanma)
• Mamoswine (evolves from Piloswine)
• Gallade (evolves from Kirlia)
• Probopass (evolves from Nosepass)
• Froslass (evolves from Snorunt)

In Pokemon GO, the long-awaited thing appeared and happened. These events forced many players to return to the game. The arrival of Chikorita, Cyndaquil and Totodile (among other Pokémon in the Johto region) greatly expands the Pokedex and makes game process more fun.

Among other changes, special items have been added to Pokemon GO. They are required to perform certain evolutions (along with candy) for some Pokémon. Now I'll go into more detail about each special item in Pokémon GO.

Pokemon GO Evolution Items

Like regular items, special items in Pokemon GO can be obtained from PokéStops. In general, this is good - after all, you do not have to visit rare locations to get a certain item, which not everyone can do. However, the chance of dropping such an item from the PokéStop is quite small.

However, judging by the trainers' feedback, the chance of getting a special item on the 7th day is extremely high. So if you rarely enter the game, here's a reason to change that)

For example, our reader sent me some screenshots and statistics for obtaining special items:

• The item "King's Rock" is obtained after about 100 spins of non-unique pokestops

• “Dragon Scale” item obtained after about 50 spins of non-unique PokéStops

• The item "Sun Stone" is obtained after about 50-150 spins of non-unique PokéStops

And now a little more about each Pokémon GO item required for evolutions.

Dragon scale

The special item “Dragon Scale” is used to carry out the evolution from Seadra to Kingdra. This evolution will cost you 100 Horsea candies.

King's Rock

The special item “King's Rock” is used to evolve Poliwhirl into Politoed instead of Poliwrath. It can also be used to evolve Slowpoke into Slowking.

Metal Coat

The special item “Metal Coat” in Pokémon GO is used to evolve Scyther into Scizor or Onix into Steelix.

Sun stone

The special item “Sun Stone” in Pokémon GO is used to evolve Gloom into Bellossom or Sunkern into Sunflora.

Upgrade

The special "Upgrade" item in Pokémon GO is used to evolve the Porygon in Porygon 2.

• Porygon 2 \u003d Porygon + 50 Porygon candies + "Upgrade"

Chance of getting special items in Pokémon GO

• Items for evolutions can be obtained in PokéStops
• Items for evolutions are quite rare: the chance of dropping them is 0.76% - 1% (according to the latest data, about 0.2%)
• The chance of getting any item for evolution is equal
• is not a guarantee of getting a special item, although the chance of getting an item increases
• Evolution item can be obtained from any PokéStop
