Vaporeon in Pokémon GO has so many characteristic elements that you will be surprised by its data and its usefulness in the game, if you know how to take advantage of it.
To get the most out of it, it is recommended to know the Pokémon GO type table, as well as review all the Eevee evolutions in Pokémon GO and which are the best Eevee for battles. And it never hurts to check out the best Elite moves available.
But it will be useless to know this data if you do not know the basic data of Vaporeon in Pokémon GO. Especially since it is very different from the main series in terms of statistics, way of capturing it and much more. Here we will tell you everything you need to know about it.
How to get Vaporeon in Pokémon GO
Getting Vaporeon in Pokémon GO follows a very different process than in the main series, although there is one trick that will look familiar. Unless it’s a special event, here are the only two ways to get Vaporeon:
- Give your Eevee the nickname “Rainer” and give it 25 Candies to evolve it (only works once).
- Give it 25 Candies directly to evolve, but you will have a 33% chance that it evolves into Vaporeon, Jolteon or Flareon.
So the only way to get Vaporeon if you’ve already used the nickname trick in Pokémon GO will be to leave everything to chance, but at least you only need to get Eevee Candy. We recommend searching for them by taking advantage of community days, hatching events, and using Pinia Berries in case you can capture them. This will significantly increase the Candy you receive so you can evolve it back to its Water type evolution.

Does Vaporeon have a Shiny variant? ✨
The good news is that you can have Vaporeon Shiny in Pokémon GO. To do this, you will first need to obtain a Shiny Eevee and evolve it with the method we explained to you above.
Vaporeon Shiny features one of the most drastic color changes of all Eeveelutions, clearly distinguishing it from its normal version. The aquamarine blue on its body and fins changes to a light purple. This color change gives him a more whimsical and unique appearance, so you can’t go wrong when you see him among other Vaporeons.
To obtain Shiny Eevee, the best is to take advantage of each Bonus which increases its appearance rate: the more Eevees you find, the higher your probability will be. For example, Eevee Community Days are perfect for getting its Shiny variant. You can find more information in our guide to finding Shiny variants in Pokémon GO.
