Ninantic Inc. blasted the scene with Pokémon Go in 2016. Suddenly everything around was about this new game that makes people find Pokémon in real locations. If you did try it in the last four years then you will be more than excited to play it now. It is one of the hardest Pokémon games plus it has introduced some major features and one of them is “Pokémon Go Nicknames“. Over 500 of them can be renamed, and if you haven’t tried that, then this article is for you.
You might be thinking why are Pokémon Go Nicknames so important suddenly? It’s because changing nicknames can lead your Pokémon to evolve into another one. This trick was not known to many people before. But as it is now a known practice in the scene, you should also try on some unique Pokémon Go nicknames for a better gaming experience.
The best Pokémon Go nicknames differ for different Pokémon characters. For Eevee to evolve into Jolteon, Vapeoreon, and Flareon, you have all the different names. Their nicknames will lead them to become a particular Pokémon.
Let’s read all about the Best Pokémon Go Nicknames and How to Choose a Pokémon Go Nickname for a Trainer.
The Best Pokémon Go Nicknames
You can take inspiration from these names and experiment with your Pokémon as much as you can. If you are renaming your Pokémon Go Trainer name, then know in advance that your name will not be changed after it. But your Pokémon’s name can be changed an infinite number of times.
Eevee Pokémon Go Nicknames
If you are new to the whole Pokémon Go scene, then there are chances that you don’t know much about Eevee. It’s a different Pokémon. Eevee is a little, fennec fox-like creature of Normal-type. If you are using the original games in Japan (Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green), then you are gifted with Eevee in the Celadon City.
Now there are three Pokémons Eevee can evolve into-
- Jolteon- The Electric One
- Vaporeon- The Water One
- Flareon- The Fire One
To evolve your Eevee into any of these Pokémon, you would have to purchase various stones. But you don’t need to buy anything. Various Pokémon Go trainers have learned over time that nicknames can help you in evolving your Eevee. But what would you use as the Pokémon go nicknames of Eevee? Worry not! We have explained everything below.
- From Eevee to Jolteon
If you wish to evolve Eevee to a Jolteon, you should name your Eevee Sparky.
- From Eevee to Vaporeon
If you wish to evolve Eevee to a Vaporeon, you should name your Eevee Rainer.
- From Eevee to Flareon
If you wish to evolve Eevee to a Flareon, you should name your Eevee Pyro.
All these names are inspired by the same types of Eevee brothers in the Pokémon Anime. They appeared in Episode 40 of Pokémon Anime.
But these are not the only evolutions of Eevee. You can evolve this Pokémon into two more Pokémon, which are Espeon and Umbreon. Here are their Pokémon Go nicknames-
- From Eevee to Espeon
If you wish to evolve Eevee to an Espeon, you should name your Eevee Sakura.
- From Eevee to Umbreon
If you wish to evolve Eevee to an Umbreon, you should name your Eevee Tamao.
Don’t forget, as your Eevee is evolved into another Pokémon you can change its nickname. Then there’s no need to keep their Pokémon Go nicknames like Tamao or Sparky.
You can also evolve your Eevee into Leafeon and Glaceon, but it is a little complicated than the other ones. Although, some trainers believe that changing the Pokémon Go nicknames of your Eevee can lead to aces Glaceon and Leafeon. Here are the Pokémon Go nicknames you should use-
- From Eevee to Leafeon
If you wish to evolve Eevee to a Leafeon, you should name your Eevee Linnea.
- From Eevee to Glaceon
If you wish to evolve Eevee to a Glaceon, you should name your Eevee Rea.
That was all Eevee evolution Pokémon Go Nicknames that exist. You can use any of them to evolve your Eevee into a Pokémon that you like.
