One unique method of evolving in Pokemon GO is the Adventure Together as a Buddy to evolve system. It offers trainers an alternative way to evolve their Pokemon by simply walking and exploring with their selected Buddy Pokemon.

When Pokemon GO was first released, the process of evolving Pocket Monsters was quite simple. Players only had to collect and feed enough candies to their Pokemon in order to evolve them to their next stage.

However, as more of these creatures were added to the game, the evolutionary requirements also became more complex. Currently, there are several special evolutions in Pokemon GO. Some require items or trading to evolve, whereas others only evolve at specific times of the day.

To address these unique cases, the Adventure Together system was introduced alongside the Buddy mechanic. Here is everything you need to know about these unique Pokemon and how to evolve them using the Adventure Together mechanic.
