The Trading Process for Evolving Phantump
Evolving Phantump is a straightforward process that relies on one of the Pokémon series' classic mechanics: trading. Unlike many Pokémon that evolve by reaching a certain level or using an evolutionary stone, Phantump's potential is unlocked only when it is traded to another trainer.
To initiate the evolution, you simply need to start a trade with a friend. Once you send your Phantump to them, the evolution sequence will trigger automatically on their end, transforming it into Trevenant. There are no other prerequisites; the Phantump can be at any level. If you want the newly evolved Trevenant for your own team, ensure you are trading with someone who is willing to trade it right back to you!
- Phantump evolves into Trevenant when traded to another player.
- This is a trade-exclusive evolution; no specific level, item, or time of day is required.
- The evolution is immediate upon completion of the trade, so you'll need a trusted partner to trade it back.
