Niantic is hosting an exciting event to commemorate the launch of the state-of-the-art Pokemon GO Plus+ device, along with the upcoming Pokemon Sleep release. Trainers have the opportunity to obtain a unique Snorlax wearing a special Nightcap as a reward. Hurry though, as this event concludes on July 16, 2023 at 8 pm local time. During this period, players will encounter an increased number of Pokemon, including the adorable sheep Pokemon, Wooloo.
Wooloo made its debut in Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield, which is part of the eighth generation of mainline Pokemon games. It belongs to the Normal-type category and has the ability to evolve into Dubwool once it reaches level 24. However, in the realm of Pokemon GO, the evolution process for Wooloo differs slightly.
Can Wooloo Be Shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes, Wooloo does have a shiny version in the mainline Pokemon games, but it is currently not available in Pokemon GO. The image above showcases the shiny version of Wooloo found in the Switch titles, featuring darker wool and a lighter face.
Niantic typically takes their time introducing shiny variations of popular Pokemon, so it is possible that Shiny Wooloo will be released in the future. However, we do not have any information on when this may occur.
How to Evolve Wooloo in Pokemon GO
Players can evolve their Wooloo into Dubwool in Pokemon GO by spending 50 Wooloo Candies. To obtain more Wooloo Candy, utilizing Pinap Berries during encounters is recommended. Additionally, trainers have the option to designate Wooloo as their Buddy Pokemon and earn even more Candy by walking with it.
To evolve Wooloo in the game, follow these steps:
- Open the main map screen by clicking on the Poke Ball icon.
- From there, click on "Pokemon" and search for Wooloo.
- Once you have gathered 50 Candy, press the Evolve button to permanently transform Wooloo into Dubwool.
If you're having trouble finding Wooloo during the event, try these tips:
- Use an Incense or place a Lure Module at a Gym or PokeStop.
- Take advantage of the Nearby feature by clicking on the icon below the binoculars at the home menu.
- This feature will display any nearby Wooloo, allowing you to track its location down.
Pokemon GO is available on mobile devices.
