Name Your Eevees Right In Pokémon Go To Get Umbreon Or Espeon

Pokémon Go has added 80 new Johto pocket monsters to catch and some old tricks still work, including how to get the Eevee evolution you want. When the game first released players quickly discovered that naming your Eevee properly would give you a corresponding evolution:

  • “Rainer” =  Vaporeon
  • “Sparky” = Jolteon
  • “Pyro" = Flareon

Well now the same trick works Eevee's Johto evoltuons: Umbreon and Espeon.

  • "Tamao" = Umbreon
  • "Sakura" = Espeon

I got to praise Pokémon Go for continuing hidden tricks for players to discover—though this one was a bit of a given. I wonder what other shortcuts  exist that players haven't discovered.
