How to Change Zygarde's Form in Pokemon GO

Zygarde can undergo form changes with the use of Zygarde Cells. These cells are valuable items that can be stored in the Zygarde Cube, obtained by completing step three of the special research tasks. By collecting 50 Zygarde Cells, players can trigger the transformation of Zygarde into both its 50% and complete forms.

How To Find Zygarde Cells in Pokemon GO

To find Zygarde Cells, utilize the new Routes feature introduced in the latest update. Explore nearby Routes created by other players through the Nearby function. However, note that creating Routes requires a PokeStop or Gym. Currently, only a limited number of individuals have access to this feature, but it will soon be available to players worldwide.

While journeying along a Route, there is a chance of stumbling upon Zygarde Cells indicated by shiny yellow/green icons on the map. Ensure you possess the Zygarde Cube before attempting to collect these Cells. While Niantic may introduce additional methods for collecting Zygarde Cells in the future, this remains the sole approach at present. Here is a list of other benefits players obtain through the Routes mechanic:

Follow a Route to its end for the first time to earn a new Route Badge.

Pokemon will be more attracted to Incense when exploring a Route for the first time.

Earn Buddy Candy more quickly.

Earn an XP bonus for the first Route you complete each day. After completing Routes for seven days, you’ll receive an increased XP bonus.

Earn a Buddy Heart when you complete a Route while adventuring with your buddy.

Pokemon GO is available now on Mobile.
