If you've been playing Pokémon GO for a few weeks, maybe you've wondered how you can voluntarily control Eevee's evolution to get to Vaporeon, Flareon or Jolteon As you already know, Eevee has several possible evolutions, and if we don't intervene in a specific way, in Pokémon GO will randomly evolve into one of these options.
But in case you want to make sure of one of each (or at least decide exactly which evolution you want), you're in luck: there is a trick with which we can choose the evolution we want for our Pokémon, and it's as simple as renaming your Eevee before evolution
How to Get a Vaporeon
Vaporeon has become one of the most coveted Pokémon in the augmented reality game Pokémon GO, and was the protagonist in a quite funny episode that took place in New York's Central Park: When the news spread that a Vaporeon had appeared in the famous park, players began to arrive in Real waves, some didn't even bother to park their car properly because they were in too much of a hurry to get from the parking area to where the Pokémon was.
Luckily, you don't have to wait for special occasions to get a Vaporeon: If you have an Eevee, you can make it evolve to your liking to get this water Pokémon But before giving it enough candies for its evolution, change its name and call it Rainer
To change the name of your Eevee, you will have to access your list of captured Pokémon, click on Eevee and select the pencil icon that appears just to the right of your name A text box will then be displayed where you can enter the new name.
Everything is ready! Once your Eevee is named Rainer, when you evolve it it will become a Vaporeon.
How to get Jolteon or Flareon
Not only can you voluntarily choose to evolve into Vaporeon: you can also get a Jolteon or a Flareon by using the name change trick. Logically, we will have to use different names.
Just like Vaporeon, it's very important that you make this change before evolving, otherwise any Eevee can randomly evolve into the various forms .
In case you want a Flareon ”“the evolution of fire type”“, what you should do is change Eevee's name to Pyro. And if you want a Jolteon, you'll need to use the name Sparky.
And keep catching Eevee!
Remember that in Pokémon GO you need to accumulate candy from a certain Pokémon to make it evolveThe best thing is to search and catch many Eevee to get more candies, and each time you transfer one to the professor you will also receive a candy.
When you get a lot of Eevee, you can select three different ones to evolve into their three different forms: Flareon (fire), Vaporeon (water) and Jolteon (electric) In later generations of Pokémon we met other evolutions of Eevee, but at the moment they are not available in the Pokémon GO video gameOf course: soon we will have new Pokémon in the game…
