Eevee – what is this pokemon?
Eevee is a normal type pokemon that had its appearance in the 1st Generation. It resembles a mix of a fox and a rabbit – it has a fluffy tail, long ears and brown and beige fur. The head is slightly larger than the torso, and its charm is enhanced by large, dark brown eyes and a small nose. Some players consider it a mascot Pokemon GO and they love it, just like the famous Pikachu. You can meet Eevee often while walking around the city, because he likes to hide in built-up areas against wild Pokemon attacks.

Eevees’ most remarkable feature is its evolutionary ability. There are 8 types of creatures in the game, which differ in appearance, skills and strength level (CP). Evolving Eevee requires the use of 25 candies, which you get by completing tasks in the game, but this action ensures that you get a random Pokemon of a higher type. Below you’ll find our suggestions on how to evolve to obtain a specific form of Eevee – Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Umbreon, Glaceon, Leaferon, Espeon and the unique Sylveon.
Eevee evolution in a nutshell – how to evolve Eevee?
If you already have the right amount of candy, you can apply one of the tricks discovered by players to help gain the selected Pokemon before evolving Eevee. To do this, before clicking on the function “Evolve” change the name of Eevee to one of the following list:
- for the aquatic type Vaporeon – Rainer;
- for the electric type Jolteon – Sparky;
- for the fire type Flareon – Pyro;
- for the shadow type Umbreon – Tamao;
- for ice type Glaceon – Rea;
- for deciduous type Leafeon – Linnea;
- for the psychic type Espeon – Sakura;
- for the fairy type Sylveon – Kira.
After making the changes, reset the app to save the new settings and you can proceed with the evolution. Unfortunately, such a trick is available only once, so choose the Eevee Pokemon with the highest CP level and you will get a strong creature.
Why such names?
The names for the evolutionary types of Eevee are not accidental. Most of the names come from the anime series Pokemon. In the 40th episode the trio of trainers – Sparky, Pyro and Rainer known as Eevee brothers explain to Ash the process of Pokemon evolution. In the following episodes, you can also see Sakura and Tamao – two of the five Kimono sisters. In addition, some of the names refer to the types of creatures, Rainer can be associated with rain, and Pyro with fire.
Alternative Methods of Eevee Evolution:
Evolving Eevee without the use of the name change trick allows you to obtain a Vaporeon, Jolteon or Flareon. To get the other types of Pokemon – Umbreon, Glaceon, Leafeon, Espeon, you need to use alternative methods that allow you to get a specific type of Eevee. How to do it?
Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon
Players who wish to acquire the three basic evolutionary forms of Eevee – Vaporeon, Jolteon and Flareon need luck or patience. After using the chance with the name change, only the method of continuous trials remains, because these Pokemon fall randomly and it is not possible to get a specific type by using tricks. The only solution is to develop the strength of each captured Eevee and evolve them. Fortunately, the creature often appears in Pokemon GO, so the chances are high that you will finally get the type you need.

Umbreon, Espeon
The evolution of Eevee to Umbreon and Espeon is possible when you make a normal type Pokemon your friend Buddha and go for a 10-kilometer walk. Additionally, there should be two candies that will influence the evolution outcome. Also, you’ll need to take into account the issue of time of day. If it is night in the game, there is a better chance of gaining Umbreon, while Espeon will appear during the day.

Leafeon, Glaceon
In Pokemon Go the evolution of Eevee to Leafeon and Glaceon requires the use of appropriate items, so-called decoys. To get a leaf type Pokemon Mossy Lure is needed, and to get an ice type – Glacial Lure. You can buy these items in the store and then use them when visiting PokeStop. Activate the bait and evolve with 25 candies. If everything works fine, you’ll get the Eevee type you care about.

Sylveon
From May 2021 in Pokemon GO you can evolve Eevee to the fairy type Sylveon. If you want to get this version of the creature, Eevee has to become your Buddha Pokemon, but that’s not all. The prerequisite for the success of evolution is to collect 70 hearts with a friend. You will get them by walking, feeding, taking photos and petting Pokemon together. After fulfilling this condition, you will receive the coveted, candy Sylveon.
Eevee, apart from being a cute Pokemon, thanks to his evolutions can ensure you win during duels in PokeGyms. Collect all types and use their unique skills!
