How to Evolve Aipom in Pokemon Go

Aipom is a Normal-type Pokémon who has only one evolution in its tree: Ambipom. It can be caught in the wild and as a raid boss, but it can't be hatched from eggs. To celebrate Pokemon: Detective Pikachu's release, Niantic made it possible to discover Shiny Aipom and Shiny Ambipom out in the wild for the first time in Pokémon Go history.

If you catch an Aipom, evolving it is simple. Feed it 100 candies then use a Sinnoh Stone to cause the Aipom to evolve into Ambipom. Sinnoh Stones can be obtained through Research Breakthroughs or by participating in Trainer Battles.
