Clamperl joins other Pokémon, like Eevee, that have multiple evolutions. Unlike the others, though,Clamperl’s evolutions are entirely random. Some Pokémon with different evolutions can be forced onto a certain path by naming the Pokémon or knowing its gender, but with Clamperl, players will have torun trial and erroruntil they get the evolution they desire. There has been some speculation that the Pokémon’s gender does play a role in its decided evolution, but this has not been proven.

Evolving Clamperl will take 50 Clamperl Candy. This is a hefty amount, especially when players don’t know what the evolution will result in. Clamperl has been in the game since 2019 but hasn’t been featured in many events, meaning players likely have limited access to Clamperl Candy. Players can use Rare Candy to gain enough to evolve Clamperl, though the Pokémon’s evolutions likely aren’t strong enough to be worth the cost.
