Milotic is one of the most sought-after species in Pokemon Go but getting it is extremely difficult due to the rarity of Feebas as well as its challenging evolution requirements. Here’s all you need to know to get Feebas and Milotic in Pokemon Go.

The basic quest in Pokemon Go is to catch all available Pokemon in the game and add them to the Pokedex. In their quest to catch ’em all, fans need to capture Legendaries, Shadow species, and perhaps the toughest of them all, Pokemon with a low spawn rate.

When it comes to the rarest species in the game, Feebas and Milotic are definitely among the trickiest bunch. But getting a Feebas is only half the job done as it has one of the hardest evolution methods in the mobile game.

So here’s how to get Feebas and Milotic in Pokemon Go, along with details on their shiny availability and evolution method.

How to get Feebas in Pokemon Go

You can get Feebas in Pokemon Go by catching it as a wild spawn in the game; it’s not available in Raids and is not included in the current Egg pool.

While Feebas is an incredibly rare spawn, players will have an increased chance of encountering Feebas in the wild as a part of the Out to Play event, which runs until October 2, 2023.

How to evolve Feebas into Milotic in Pokemon Go

You can evolve Feebas into Milotic with 400 Candy while also walking 20km with it as your Buddy in Pokemon Go.

Due to the low availability of Feebas, it is difficult to obtain the required amount of Candies for evolution. So, we recommend keeping it as your Buddy even after you complete 20km and max out its Buddy Hearts each day.

By doing this, you can halve the distance Feebas needs to get a Candy through Adventure Sync and quickly evolve it to Milotic.

Can Feebas & Milotic be shiny in Pokemon Go?

Yes, shiny Feebas and Milotic are available in Pokemon Go.

Lucky players who catch a shiny Feebas can complete the evolution requirements and get themselves a shiny Milotic.

The odds of encountering a shiny Feebas in Pokemon Go are 1 in 500 or 0.2% chance.

This is all you need to know about getting Feebas and Milotic in Pokemon Go, their evolution requirement, and shiny availability. For more on Pokemon Go, be sure to check out our other guides:
