Some Pokémon evolve when they are leveled up with a [[friendship]] of at least 220. Like friendship itself, this method was introduced in [[Generation II]]. As long as the Pokémon has the required amount of friendship, unless there are other requirements for its evolution, it will attempt to evolve whenever it levels up by battle or Rare Candy.

[[Baby Pokémon]] often have this evolution requirement, but it is also an evolution requirement for other Pokémon, and not all baby Pokémon have this as an evolution requirement.

Some Pokémon evolve when they are leveled up and know a certain move or certain type of move. This evolutionary requirement was introduced in [[Generation IV]].


If the Pokémon learns the required move by leveling up, that same level up can trigger the evolution. However, if a Pokémon learns a move by level up and overwrites the required move, such that it no longer knows the required move at the end of the battle (or after completing the level up in the case of a Rare Candy), it cannot evolve.

Some Pokémon evolve when they are leveled up in certain locations. This evolutionary requirement was introduced in [[Generation IV]].


There are four different types of location that can trigger location-based evolutions: [[Moss Rock]], [[Ice Rock]], [[special magnetic field]], and [[Mount Lanakila]]. Mount Lanakila, which is only required for {{p|Crabrawler}}'s evolution, is the only one which is a specific location rather than a type of location, due to Crabrawler so far having only appeared in a single region.

Some Pokémon evolve when they are leveled up in a specific [[region]]. This evolutionary requirement was introduced in [[Generation VII]].
Pokémon that evolve this way may also need other conditions, such as requiring it to be a specific time of day. Some Pokémon evolve into different forms depending on what region they are in.

In [[Pokémon GO]], the only way to evolve Pokémon is to press the "Evolve" button on that Pokémon's profile page. All Pokémon require the player spend a specific amount of their own Candy to evolve them, but some have additional requirements.


The most common additional requirement is an item. All evolutions that require an [[evolution-inducing held item]] (except Feebas's evolution into Milotic) or a [[Sun Stone|Sun]], [[Shiny Stone|Shiny]] or [[Dusk Stone]] to evolve in the core series require an item to be spent in Pokémon GO, in addition to the Candy cost. For evolutions introduced in Generation II, the item required is the same as in the core series; for evolutions introduced in Generation IV, a [[Sinnoh Stone]] is required instead.

For evolutions introduced in Generation II, the item required is the same as in the core series. All [[cross-generational evolution]]s introduced in [[Generation IV]] require a [[Sinnoh Stone]] to evolve. All evolutions introduced in Generation V that require an evolutionary stone in the core series (except a Sun Stone) require a [[Unova Stone]] in Pokémon GO; Generation V evolutions that require a Sun Stone in the core series also require it in Pokémon GO.


{{p|Feebas}} cannot be evolved until the player has walked with it as the [[Buddy Pokémon]] for 20&nbsp;km. This requirement is noted under the "Evolve" button.

For some species of Pokémon with branched evolutions, there are multiple "Evolve" buttons, allowing the player to choose which Pokémon to evolve into. The different buttons may have different requirements, such as one button requiring an item while another does not.
