How To Get Umbreon In Pokemon GO
The easiest way to get Umbreon in Pokemon GO is naming your chosen Eevee “Tamao”. As soon as you do this, Umbreon’s silhouette should appear next to the Evolve option. However, this naming trick can only be done once per account, so be sure to be 100% certain you’re evolving your best Eevee with ideal CP and stats.
The other way to get Umbreon in Pokemon GO is a bit more complicated, but necessary if you want to evolve another if you’ve already used the naming method. What’s more, it’s only a couple of extra conditions. All you need to do to get Umbreon in this way, is select your chosen Eevee as your buddy, have it walk 10km with you, and then evolve it at night (whilst still being your Buddy). It will simply cost you another 25 Candies like with the naming trick.
