Pokémon That Evolve by Friendship
Sources checked:
Raise friendship, then meet the evolution trigger for your game. Some evolutions also require daytime, nighttime or another condition. The grids show the Pokémon before evolution; its entry explains the possible results.
Friendship without a time requirement
Pokémon: 14Friendship must reach the game’s required threshold before the evolution trigger. Walking and suitable care can help; friendship and affection are not identical in every generation.
Check exceptions before training: Alolan Meowth evolves at level 28 in Let’s Go rather than using friendship there.
