With Saladin and Salazzle making their debut in Pokémon GO, players will want to get their hands on these amazing Pokémon and add them to their Pokédex and rosters.

However, similar to any other Pokémon that Trainers come across in Pokémon GO, certain prerequisites must be met to evolve a Saladit. Therefore, to make things simpler for players, here is how one can evolve a Salandit into a Salazzle easily.

Debuting with the new Team GO Rocket event, Salandit and Salazzle can be obtained as Pokémon with all the benefits of adding them to the Pokédex. As a Poison and Fire-Type Pokémon, they will be weak against Ground, Psychic, Rock, and Water-Types.

However, they will be resistant to Fairy, Bug, Grass, Ice, Fire, Steel, Poison, and Fighting-Type Pokémon.

Players will only be able to evolve the Salandit into a Salazzle by meeting two requirements. They must have at least 50 Salandit Candy, and also the Salandit they are trying to evolve is female. This is an interesting caveat that players must fulfill.

If the Salandit is a male, it cannot evolve into a Salazzle as only female ones can do that.


How to obtain a Salandit

Players will need to battle and defeat the Team Rocket Leaders in order to get a chance to get a Salandit. By besting either Arlo, Sierra, or Cliff, they will be able to drop a 12km Strange Egg.

Players will then have to hatch this egg to have a chance at obtaining a Salandit from it. As of right now, this is the only way that they will be able to obtain a Salandit within Pokémon GO.


Getting some extra Salandit Candy

Because only female Salandits will evolve into Salazzle, a good tip for players is to trade in all of the male ones over to Professor Willow for some Salandit Candy.

As they cannot evolve, it is not worth the effort of leveling them up, and players should simply invest their limited resources into one that can evolve into a Salazzle.
