Pokemon GO Eevee Evolutions: How to Evolve, Best Tricks and All Forms

Eevee is undoubtedly one of the most popular Pokemon in the mainline games, and that popularity carries over to Pokemon GO. This normal-type Pokemon has a multiple-evolution chain, making it a strong choice for trainers to fill the gaps in their teams. However, to get Eevee evolutions in Pokemon GO you need to follow different processes for each. In this guide, you’ll find all the information related to it.

Name Trick for Eevee Evolutions in Pokemon GO

You can evolve Eevee in Pokemon GO into one of the eight elemental types from the Pokemon Type Chart — Fire, Electric, Water, Dark, Grass, Ice, Psychic, and Fairy. To evolve your Eevee, begin by collecting 25 Eevee candies and catching one in the game.

Once done, you can evolve them using the Eevee nickname trick. As it stands, you can use the following name trick to evolve Eevee into one of the eight evolutions:

Eevee Evolutions	Nickname	Type
Flareon	Pyro	Fire
Jolteon	Sparky	Electric
Vaporeon	Rainer	Water
Umbreon	Tamao	Dark
Espeon	Sakura	Psychic
Glaceon	Rea	Ice
Leafeon	Linnea	Grass
Sylveon	Kira	Fairy

To get an Eevee evolution in Pokemon GO follow the steps given below:

• Select Eevee from your Pokemon storage.
• Press the pencil icon beside the name.
• Change the default name and set it to the nickname of the chosen evolution.
• Now you’ll see the silhouette of the Eeveelution on the “Evolve” button. Tap it to evolve.

Remember that you can evolve your Eevee only once using this trick in Pokemon GO. This applies to all Eevee evolutions, so be sure to pick the one with better stats.

How to Get All Eevee Evolutions in Pokemon GO

If you have already used the name trick, then the other way to get Eevee evolutions in Pokemon GO is by the regular evolution requirements. You can find them in the table below:

Eevee Evolutions	Requirement	Type
Flareon	Random evolution from Eevee (25 Candy)	Fire
Jolteon	Random evolution from Eevee (25 Candy)	Electric
Vaporeon	Random evolution from Eevee (25 Candy)	Water
Umbreon	Walk Eevee 10 km, evolve during the Day while it is your Buddy (25 Candy)	Dark
Espeon	Walk Eevee 10 km, evolve during Day while it is your Buddy (25 Candy)	Psychic
Glaceon	Evolve Eevee near a Glacial Lure (25 Candy)	Ice
Leafeon	Evolve Eevee near a Mossy Lure (25 Candy)	Grass
Sylveon	Earn 70 Buddy Hearts with Eevee, then evolve (25 Candy)	Fairy

How to Get Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon in Pokemon GO

There isn’t any specific method to evolve Eevee into Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon in Pokemon GO. Eevee will evolve into one of the three Eeveelutions in Pokemon GO by using 25 candy, and without any Lure or Buddy evolution requirement. This is purely based on luck and very random, so we recommend using the nickname method to use it on the best one, or else you might end up with the wrong Eeveelution.

How to Get Umbreon and Espeon in Pokemon GO

Unlike Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon, there is a guaranteed way to evolve Eevee into Umbreon and Espeon in Pokemon GO. To do so, you need to choose Eevee as your buddy and walk 10 km. Once done, you can evolve Eevee during the day using 25 candies to get Espeon. Evolving your Eevee at nighttime using 25 candies will turn it into Umbreon.

How to Get Leafeon and Glaceon in Pokemon GO

Glaceon and Leafon are the easiest Eeveelutions to obtain in Pokemon GO. To evolve Eevee into Leafeon, you need a Mossy Lure Module. Similarly, you need a Glacial Lure Module to evolve Eevee into a Glaceon.

You can get the respective Lure Modules by completing certain Special Research Tasks or purchasing them from the in-game shop using 200 PokeCoins. We recommend completing the ‘A Thousand-Year Slumber’ Special Research Task, as it rewards a Glacial and a Mossy Lure Module.

Once you have them, place the respective module at the PokeStop and evolve your Eevee using 25 Eevee Candy. If you use the Glacial Lure Module at a PokeStop, evolving your Eevee near that PokeStop will turn it into Glaceon. Similarly, if you use the Mossy Lure Module at the PokeStop, your Eevee will evolve into a Leafeon.

How to Get Sylveon in Pokemon GO

Sylveon is the fairy-type evolution of Eevee, which might be very straightforward to obtain, but can take a lot of time. You can evolve Eevee into Sylveon by choosing it as your buddy and increasing its friendship level. The friendship evolution is very similar to evolving Eevee in Pokemon Legends ZA, and other mainline games.

Once you have Eevee as your buddy, play with it, feed berries, take snapshots, and walk together to earn hearts. After earning 70 hearts with Eevee, you can evolve it to get Sylveon in Pokemon GO.

Are There Any Shiny Eevee Evolutions in Pokemon GO?

Yes, shiny Eevee evolutions are available in Pokemon GO, and to get them, you need to catch a shiny Eevee. If you have only one shiny Eevee, you can choose to evolve it into one of the Eeveelutions you like. However, you need eight shiny Eevee if you want all the shiny Eeveelutions.

Tips to Remember While Evolving Eevee in Pokemon GO

While evolving Eevee might seem simple, there are certain things you should keep in mind when doing so. Here are some tips that will help you maximize resources and obtain all Eeveelutions:

• Evolve Eevee during special events, like the past December 2025 Community Day, to get exclusive moves on them.
• Use nicknames to evolve Shiny and good IV Eevee, especially when trying to get a Flareon, Jolteon, or Vaporeon.
• Use Poffins to get twice the amount of hearts per day, and increase friendship quickly with your Eevee. Doing so will give you 26 hearts daily, rather than 13.
• Use Lures to evolve Eevee during special Pokemon GO events that extend the duration of the Lure Module. That way, you catch extra Pokemon and increase Lure duration.
