Glaceon in Pokémon GO is the perfect choice for more aggressive players, something that carries over quite well into the main series.
With the help of the Pokémon GO type chart, you can make the Cold Glaceon stand out among the Eevee evolutions in Pokémon GO, positioning itself as one of the best Eeveelutions for battles. And you can increase its terrible attack if you’ve already mastered the list of best Elite moves available.
So if you’re interested in some PvP action and aren’t afraid to go on the offensive, or just want to complete the PokéDex, you’ll definitely want to have Glaceon in your Pokémon GO arsenal. Although this game works somewhat differently from the main series. Here we’ll tell you everything you need to know to get the most out of this monster.

How to get Glaceon in Pokémon GO
To get Glaceon in Pokémon GO, you have to follow a path much like it’s always been done in the main games of the series, but that doesn’t mean that the famous “trainer names” will no longer exist. Here are the only ways to obtain Glaceon, outside of events and trades:
- Give your Eevee the nickname “Rea” and evolve it with 25 candies (only works once).
- Use a Glacier Bait module near a PokéStop and spin the photo disc.
The hardest part of the process will be obtaining the Glacear Bait modules. The easiest solution is to buy it from the store for 180 PokéCoins, but you may have to spend real money if you don’t know how to get free PokéCoins. Another option is to participate in research tasks and special events offering bait modules as rewards. And if you already know how to take advantage of Berries in Pokémon GO, you will know that you can use Pinia Berries to earn more Candies.

Does Glaceon have a Shiny variant? ✨
The good news is that the Glaceon Shiny variant is available in Pokémon GO. The problem is that we find here one of the major flaws of this Pokémon, which is that its variocolor form is quite subtle.
First of all, know that to achieve this you just need to evolve your Shiny Eevee. You can search for one by hatching eggs and completing as many research tasks as possible. The best tip is to use Bonuses which double the appearance rate, and therefore the probability of finding a Shiny. Eevee Community Days are perfect for finding your Shiny variation. You can find more information in our guide to finding Shiny variants in Pokémon GO.
As we mentioned before, Glaceon Shiny has a very subtle but pleasant color change. While the standard form features an icy blue tint, the Shiny variant comes in a paler blue and sometimes almost white, giving it a crystalline appearance. For those familiar with the game, you’ll notice a colder Glaceon with an ethereal vibe.
You can see the Shiny variant on the left in the image below:
