How to Evolve Galarian Slowpoke to Galarian Slowbro in Pokémon Go
Okay so you finally have a Galarian Slowpoke. I’m sure you want to evolve it into the Galarian Slowbro. So here’s how:
First, you need to make the Galarian Slowpoke your buddy Pokémon. And then, scour the world and catch 30 poison-type Pokémon. You’ll also need 50 candy.
Galarian Slowking should also slowly make its debut and you’ll probably need to catch 30 psychic Pokémon for its evolution. More details on this will be out soon. Currently you cannot evolve your Galarian Slowpoke into a Galarian Slowking.
