How to evolve Nymble into Lokix in Pokemon GO

After you catch a Nymble in Pokemon GO, you would want to evolve it into Lokix. The creature will have increased spawn rates during the Pokemon GO Small Yet Strong event, which will run from February 5, 2025, at 10 am, and end on February 8, 2025, at 8 pm local time. Shiny Nymble will be available for the first time during this period. You can obtain the creature by catching it in the wild, completing Research tasks, and trading it.

Nymble is a rare find because it is not frequently featured in events. Lokix, on the contrary, has never been featured in any events. The only way to get Lokix is to evolve Nymble, and this article tells you how.

Ways to find Nymble and Shiny Nymble in Pokemon GO

During Small Yet Strong, Field Research tasks offer encounters with Nymble and its shiny version. There will be an event-themed Collection Challenge that presents an encounter with the critter.
