Niantic to Let Us Evolve Cosmog and Cosmoem into Lunala and Solgaleo Soon

Lunala and Solgaleo will come to Pokemon GO this week. Niantic announced the Pokemon Sun and Moon legendaries will join as part of the Astral Eclipse event. That will run November 23-28, 2022. This is the final Cosmog evolution, which means people will be able to evolve Cosmoem into one of the two in Pokemon GO when they have enough candy and meet certain requirements.

Cosmog debuted in Pokemon GO back in September 2022 with the Season of Light event and A Cosmic Companion Special Research, and in October 2022 could evolve it into Cosmoem. This involves getting 25 Cosmog candies. This again happens as part of A Cosmic Companion.

Niantic’s update confirms that the final form depends on when you choose to evolve Cosmoem in Pokemon GO. First, you need to get 100 Cosmog candies. Niantic didn’t note how this will be possible yet, but did note the A Cosmic Companion storyline will continue once Astral Eclipse starts. Evolving during the night in Pokemon GO will give you Lunala, while daytime evolutions will give someone Solgaleo.

Finally, new avatar items based on Lunala and Solgaleo will appear. Lunala pants and wings will appear. So will a Solgaleo-inspired mask and pair of shoes. There will also be Galaxy Socks.

Pokemon GO is available on Android and Apple iOS devices, and people can evolve Cosmog and Cosmoem into their final Lunala and Solgaleo evolution starting on November 23, 2022.
