Galarian Slowpoke has two potential evolutions in Pokemon Go, so here’s how to evolve both Galarian Slowbro and Galarian Slowking in the game.
Known as the Dopey Pokemon in the Pokedex, Slowpoke is one of a few special Pokemon that has two different evolutions. Throw the Galarian regional variant of Slowpoke into the mix and you’ve actually got four potential evolutions!
While standard Slowpoke’s evolutions are relatively straightforward in Pokemon Go, Galarian Slowpoke is a little more tricky to figure out as you’ll need to complete one of two specific tasks to evolve it into Galarian Slowbro or Galarian Slowking.
How to evolve Galarian Slowpoke into Galarian Slowbro
To evolve Galarian Slowpoke into Galarian Slowbro in Pokemon Go, you’ll need to set it as your Buddy and catch 30 Poison-type Pokemon. You’ll also need 50 Candy to complete the evolution process.
If you’re struggling to catch this many Poison-type Pokemon, you could try placing a Mossy Lure Module on a PokeStop as this can attract Poison-type creatures (among others) to the surrounding area.

There’s no specific method for attracting more Psychic-type Pokemon to your location, but there are often special events like the Psychic Spectacular event that feature boosted spawns of Psychic-types.
Remember that both Slowpoke and Galarian Slowpoke are Psychic-type Pokemon, so catching them will count towards this evolution task.
A note on the March Community Day event…
While these evolution methods are correct, it’s important to point out that they will switch around during the Slowpoke Community Day on Saturday, March 18, 2023, between 2PM and 10PM local time.
This means you’ll need to instead catch 30 Psychic-types to get Galarian Slowbro and 30 Poison-types to get Galarian Slowking. You can find out more with our Slowpoke Community Day guide.
