[[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. {{p|Helioptile}} also requires a Sun Stone to evolve, currently being the only [[Generation VI]] Pokémon to require an evolution item in Pokémon GO.
