Cosmog evolving into Cosmoem in Pokemon Go

If you’ve caught a Cosmog in Pokemon Go, you’re probably wondering how to evolve it into Cosmoem and maybe even Solgaleo or Lunala! Here’s everything you need to know to make it happen.

Cosmog is a Psychic-type Legendary that first appeared in Pokemon Sun & Moon’s Alola region. It made its Pokemon Go debut during the Season of Light as a reward for working through the Cosmic Companion Special Research story.

Unlike most other Legendaries, which start out as large and powerful creatures, Cosmog is a tiny ball of gas that needs to evolve two times – first into Cosmoem and then into either Solgaleo or Lunala – in order to reach its full potential.

So if you’re wondering how to evolve Cosmog into Cosmoem in Pokemon Go, we’ve got all the information you need below, as well as details on Solgaleo and Lunala.

How to evolve Cosmog in Pokemon Go

Cosmog can evolve into Cosmoem with the help of 25 Candy in Pokemon Go.

In order to evolve Cosmog, you’ll first need to work your way through to Step 5 of the Cosmic Companion Special Research story, where one of the tasks will be to ‘Evolve a Cosmog’.

You should have received 25 Candy for Cosmog as a reward for Step 4 of the Cosmic Companion Special Research story, so you’ll have enough Candy to complete this evolution process.

If the option to evolve Cosmog isn’t showing up, try restarting the Pokemon Go app then check again.

Cosmoem can evolve into either Solgaleo or Lunala with the help of 100 Candy in Pokemon Go.

Just like Cosmog’s evolution, Cosmoem’s evolution is currently locked behind the Cosmic Companion Special Research story.

Completing steps 5 to 8 of this research will get you enough Cosmog Candy to evolve Cosmoem at step 9 “Evolve a Cosmoem”. Here you have to make a choice between getting Solgaleo or Lunala. If you want the lion Pokemon, you have to evolve Cosmoem during the day. If you prefer Lunala, then of course, do it during nighttime.
