Ever wondered how to transform your floppy Magikarp into the mighty Gyarados in Pokemon GO? You’re in the right place to find out!

Let’s dive into the straightforward steps you need to evolve Magikarp in Pokemon GO, turning it from a splashing simpleton into a fearsome dragon of the seas.

Collect 400 Magikarp Candies

The key to evolving Magikarp lies in collecting Magikarp Candies. You’ll need a whopping 400 of them to kickstart the evolution process. It sounds like a lot, but with some smart strategies, you’ll get there in no time!

Players can gather Magikarp Candies by catching Magikarp, transferring them to Professor Willow, hatching Eggs that contain Magikarp, or walking with a Magikarp as their Buddy Pokémon. Every catch, hatch, or transfer gets you closer to your goal. Plus, walking with Magikarp as your Buddy rewards you with candies at certain distances.

Turning Your Magikarp into a Gyarados

Once you’ve hoarded 400 Magikarp Candies, head over to your Magikarp’s profile and hit the evolve button. Voila! You’ll now have a Gyarados, a powerful Water and Flying-type Pokémon, ready to take on any challenge.

Evolving your Magikarp into Gyarados not only adds a formidable Pokémon to your collection but also significantly boosts your gameplay, allowing you to participate in more challenging battles and raids.
