Primal Reversion in Pokemon GO explained
Primal Reversion is quite similar to Mega Evolution, where you imbue a creature with some energy to transform it into something much more powerful and armed with a lot of perks.
The creatures that undergo Primal Reversion become significantly stronger and enjoy higher overall stats in PvE combat. Furthermore, they boost creatures that share a similar typing to the Primal beasts, allowing you to receive extra Candies specific to the critters you catch.
As of writing, Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre are the only creatures that exist in this form in the entire Pokemon franchise. Pokemon Sword and Shield marked the removal of the Primal Mechanic from the main series. As a result, we will most likely not see any other creatures getting a Primal variant in Pokemon GO.
How much Primal Energy is needed for Primal Reversion in Pokemon GO?
To convert a creature into its Primal form, you will need Primal Energy specific to the species in the frame. You will require 400 Primal Energy for both Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon. Once you have that amount, proceed with the process of Primal Reversion from the Pokemon card of the creature you want to transform.
For this, click on the creature in your Pokemon Storage, and if you have sufficient energy, the Primal Reversion option will be activated for you. Simply click on that button, and your creature will undergo the transformation.
How to get Primal Energy in Pokemon GO?
The easiest way to get Primal Energy in Pokemon GO is to participate in Primal Raids. This is similar to getting your hands on Mega Energy. However, it is a tad bit harder to defeat Primal Raid Bosses in the game owing to their gargantuan Combat Power (CP) and combat statistics.
Besides Primal Raids, you can get Primal Energy through some rare Special Research Tasks. You can also walk the creature as your Buddy Pokemon to get Primal Energy. You will be awarded 100 Primal Energy for every 20 kilometers that you walk with the Primal beast as your Buddy.
At any given time, you will be able to hold a maximum of 9,999 Primal Energy for each Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre.
