Pokemon Go: How to evolve Swirlix into Slurpuff

David Purcell

Fairy-type Pokemon have taken over Pokemon Go for the month of May, and as players scramble to get their first Swirlix in-game, we’ve got our eye on how to evolve Swirlix into Slurpuff. 

The Luminous Legends X event in the mobile game, available on iOS and Android, introduced this evolution chain from Gen 6. Luminous Legends will bring a number of new entrants to title, building up towards the arrival of Xerneas. It lasts until May 17.

Swirlix, the Cotton Candy Pokemon from the Kalos region, is numbered #684 in the Pokedex and will be one of the most sought after during the event.

How does Swirlix evolve in Pokemon Go?

Get more Pokemon Candy in Pokemon Go

To get Pokemon Candy for this, it’s very easy to do. There are a few ways to get them.

  • Catching Pokemon.
  • Using Berries at Pokemon Go gyms.
  • Walking with Buddy Pokemon.
  • Transferring Pokemon.
  • Hatching eggs.

To get more Pokemon Candy from catching eggs takes time, but it certainly all adds up. For a 2km egg, for example, you will collect approximately 10 candies. For a 5km egg, there will be a reward of 20, and for a 10km egg you’re looking at 30 candies.

Good luck catching your Swirlix in Niantic‘s game and hopefully – using this guide – you will also have a Slurpuff in no time!
