Pokemon Go: Clamperl Evolution – All You Need To Know
Many critters in Pokemon Go evolve in a “normal” manner. To evolve a Pokemon, you must first gather the requisite number of Pokemon Candy for that specific Pokemon, then push the toggle to evolve it. There are a few Pokemon, interestingly, that have special evolutionary routes or criteria that must be met so that they can evolve.
There are also some Pokemon that have spontaneous evolutions, so you never know what other Pokemon you’ll get when you press the Evolve toggle. Clamperl, a Water-type creature from Generation III of the Pokemon galaxy, is one of them.

Clamperl Evolution
- Huntail and Gorebyss are 2 potential evolutions for Clamperl. In Pokemon Go, you can evolve Clamperl by investing 50x Clamperl Candy.
- However, because Clamperl’s evolutions are spontaneous, there’s no way of knowing if you’ll ever get Huntail or Gorebyss once you evolve it.
- That’s why, instead of a picture of a Pokemon, the evolve icon on Clamperl’s section has a question mark.
- If you’re attempting to acquire both Huntail and Gorebyss for your Pokedex, you might end up with a copy of one of them.
- If that’s the situation, you could attempt exchanging this duplicate Pokemon for the one you really desire, as other trainers could also have replicas they don’t really want.
