To acquire all the different Eevee evolution in Pokemon Go, commonly known as “Eeveelutions,” you have to evolve Eevee, but the process to obtain each specific evolution varies. This contains using particular names, also known as the Eevee evolution name trick, among other techniques.
Evolving an Eevee requires 25 Eevee candies. But if you will not use any specific method, then the resulting evolution will be random.
For players aiming for particular Eeveelutions, there are various tricks to make sure that you get the evolution you want. A straightforward naming trick is available for those who simply want to collect each evolution once.
Eevee Evolutions Names, Nicknames and Name Trick
To get a particular evolution, you can name your Eevee the following names given below, and it will evolve into the given variant, for sure.
But keep in mind one thing, that this naming trick only works once per evolution. If you have already used “Sparky” to get a Jolteon, then it will not guarantee that you get a Jolteon next time.
Pokemon Go Eevee evolution names: –
| Eevee Evolution | Name/Nickname |
| Jolteon | Sparky |
| Flareon | Pyro |
| Vaporeon | Rainer |
| Espeon | Sakura |
| Umbreon | Tamao |
| Leafeon | Linnea |
| Glaceon | Rea |
| Sylveon | Kira |
Evolving Eevee Without the Name Trick
Once you have used the name trick, evolving Eevee into a specific form needs different approaches. While some Eevee evolutions are completed by chance, others need specific conditions to be met, such as walking with Eevee as your buddy or using certain Lure Modules.
How to Evolve Eevee into Jolteon, Flareon, or Vaporeon
Jolteon, Flareon, and Vaporean evolve randomly from Eevee. To evolve into one of these Kanto region Pokemon, you just need to use 25 Eevee candies. Ensure that your Eevee has not fulfilled the conditions for other specific evolutions, or else you won’t be able to evolve into any of these three.
Steps to Evolve Eevee into Umbreon or Espeon
For Umbreon and Espreon, you need to walk 10 kilometers with Eevee as your buddy. Once you have covered the distance, evolving the buddy Eevee during night time will result in Umbreon, while evolving it at the day time will give you Espreon. But keep in mind that Eevee must be your buddy at the time of evolution for this process to work.
Steps to Evolve Eevee into Leafeon or Glaceon
You can acquire Leafeon and Glaceon by using specific Lure Modules. For Leafeon, spin a Pokestop with a Mossy Lure active, and for Glaceon, use a Glacial Lure.
After spinning the Pokestop with the appropriate Lure Module, the next Eevee you evolve will turn into Leafeon or Glaceon, depending on the Lure used. Make Sure you are within the Lure’s reach to see the correct evolution icon before evolving.
How to Evolve Eevee into Sylveon
To evolve Eevee into Sylveon, make Eevee as your buddy and earn 70 hearts with it. This method will take many days, but using Poffins can speed it up considerably.
Can Eevee and its Evolutions be Shiny?
Yes, both Eevee and its evolution can be shiny in Pokemon Go. But Evee does not have an increased shiny rate, making it rare to find.
During an Eevee Community Day in August 2021, the Shiny rate was temporarily increased, so seasoned players might have extra shiny Eevees they could exchange if you want to add one to your collection.
