[[Generation II]] evolutions which require a [[Sun Stone]] or [[evolution item]] in the [[core series]] games also require that same item in Pokémon GO (in addition to Candy). Most Pokémon with [[List of cross-generational evolution families|cross-generational evolutions]] introduced in [[Generation IV]] require a [[Sinnoh Stone]] and {{candy}}100 to evolve. For evolutionary families introduced prior to [[Generation V]], other Evolution stones (including the [[Ice Stone]]) are not required in Pokémon GO. The [[Unova Stone]] is required for all Unova-based evolutions that require some Evolution stone, except for {{p|Cottonee}} and {{p|Petilil}}, which require a Sun Stone instead.

In past updates, two-stage Pokémon that cost {{candy}}50 to evolve have their cost reduced to {{candy}}25 whenever a cross-generational third-stage is added, like with {{p|Zubat}} and {{p|Duskull}}. {{p|Snorunt}}'s evolution cost was increased when {{p|Froslass}} became available, due to it requiring a Sinnoh Stone to evolve into Froslass (and all Sinnoh Stone evolutions cost {{candy}}100), the cost to evolve into Glalie was increased to match.

[[Shadow Pokémon (GO)|Purified Pokémon]] require 10% less Candy to evolve, with costs rounded down. For instance, a Purified Rattata, which would normally cost {{candy|Rattata}}25 to evolve, would instead only require {{candy|Rattata}}22.
