@andycarolan MAYBE if it was PVP relevant…good thing Gible works in Little Cubs because that shiny Garchomo is just a darker muddy iPhone 14 Pro muddy purple
@andycarolan I had to look it up... evolution has slightly changed so my info is incorrect.
Prior to Generation 8, it is not possible to evolve a Pokémon that is level 100 and requires leveling up to evolve.
In Generation 8 (the generation that launched with Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield), however, the mechanic of Rare Candy has changed slightly to enable evolving Pokémon at level 100:
"If a Rare Candy is used on a Level 100 Pokémon that evolves by leveling up and currently meets its evolution requirements, it will evolve (without gaining a level). (This applies to all Pokémon that evolve by leveling up, not just Pokémon that evolve at or above a certain level.)"
This now allows the evolution of Pokémon who reach level 100 without evolving, if the user chooses.
I assume the case is the same for Go but with candies.
@shadow Thanks for that. I only really know anything about Pokémon Go now. The last real game I bought for myself was Y, which I have since given to my son lol.
From what I understand about it, Go works differently to the core games... how different, I don't know lol.
@andycarolan it depends what you’re doing in the game. I’m currently trying to build a shiny living dex, and I need shiny Raticate, so I’d evolve it. But if you’re just having fun and the shiny is a bonus, I’d keep the cute little shiny rat. ☺️
@andycarolan A shiny as ugly as Raticate would be funny, but I’m not sure I could bring myself to do it. Entirely theoretical of course, as I have not a single shiny Rattata. :)
