Pokemon Go Leafeon Name Trick: What’s the Cheat to Evolve Leafeon?

You can use the name trick in Pokemon Go to get a Leafeon by “cheating.” You can evolve your Eevee into Leafeon by an alternate method as well, but this is the easiest way to get one as long as this is the first time you have done it. The name trick only works once, so skip to the end of the article if you’ve already used it to get a Leafeon.

How to evolve Eevee into Leafeon with the name trick in Pokemon Go

To evolve Eevee into Leafeon in Pokemon Go with the “cheat,” follow these instructions:

1. Open your Pokemon menu.
2. Find the Eevee you want to evolve into Leafeon.
3. Note that the picture by the evolve command is likely a Flareon, Jolteon, or Vaporeon currently.
4. Open the name change box by clicking on the pencil icon to the right of your Eevee’s name.
5. The cheat to evolve Eevee into Leafeon is the name “Rea.”
6. Enter “Rea” into the box and confirm.
7. Check to make sure the picture next to the evolve command is a Leafeon.
8. If so, use 25 Eevee Candy to start the evolution.

As long as you haven’t used this name change trick before, you should be good to go at this point.

How to evolve Eevee into Leafeon using the regular method

If you’ve already used the name change trick to get a Leafeon before, you’ll need to use the standard method. Fortunately, this is a lot easier with Leafeon than with Sylveon.

The intended way to evolve Eevee into Leafeon in Pokemon Go is to follow these instructions:

1. Get close enough to a PokeStop that you can interact with it.
2. Use a Mossy Lure on the PokeStop.
3. Head into your Pokemon menu.
4. Select the Eevee you want to evolve.
5. Make sure that the preview picture next to the evolve command is Leafeon.
6. Spend 25 Eevee Candy to evolve it.

You should now have a Leafeon! It’s that easy.
