Introduction to Sobble
Sobble, along with its evolutions Drizzile and Inteleon, made its introduction to Pokémon Go during the Max Out Season. As a Water-type Pokémon from Generation 8, Sobble is easily recognizable due to its striking blue coloration. While Sobble exhibits a somewhat timid and melancholic demeanor, its evolution into Inteleon captivates players with its sleek, espionage-like appearance. Could it be that Sobble has been engaged in top-secret training for the past four years? Regardless, players can finally catch it, and this article is dedicated to guiding you on how to obtain Sobble and evolve it into its advanced forms.
How to Obtain Sobble in Pokémon Go
Sobble first appeared in Pokémon Go during the “GO All Out” event held in September 2024. Here’s how you can find Sobble during this exciting event:
- Wild Encounters: Look for Sobble spawn locations in the wild.
- Hatching 5km Eggs: Sobble has the potential to hatch from these eggs.
- Field Research Tasks: Complete event-exclusive tasks, such as “Catch 8 Pokémon”.
- Galar Calling Quest: Opt for the ‘Adventure With Sobble’ route in the Galar Calling quest.
By following the Galar Calling quest, players can guarantee catching Sobble as well as evolving it into Inteleon. However, remember that choosing the path with either Grookey or Scorbunny will prevent you from obtaining Sobble through this method, necessitating alternative strategies.
During the “GO All Out” event, the chances of finding Sobble in the wild are significantly increased along with the other Gen 8 starters. Although it may be challenging to catch due to its status as a starter Pokémon, employing multiple Poké Balls, including Ultra Balls, can help secure this delightful little newt.
When tackling event-exclusive field research, be aware that Sobble shares its rewards with Grookey and Scorbunny. This could result in needing to complete tasks multiple times before encountering Sobble. Daily changes in tasks assigned by PokéStops also mean that flexibility and persistence are key. Joining a local Pokémon Go community might give you insights into which PokéStops currently have the tasks you need.
Additionally, hatching any 5km eggs collected since the start of the Max Out Season is advisable. While there’s no guarantee you’ll receive Sobble from the eggs, it tends to yield more candy compared to catching, contributing positively to your candy collection for evolutions. Just remember, Sobble shares its hatch pool with other Pokémon, so patience will be necessary.
Lastly, getting Sobble into your Pokédex during the event ensures you avoid potential spawning or hatching delays once the event concludes.
Evolving Sobble into Drizzile and Inteleon
To evolve Sobble, you will need to gather 25 Sobble Candy to transform it into Drizzile and an additional 100 Sobble Candy to achieve Inteleon. This totals 125 Sobble Candy required to complete its evolutionary journey in Pokémon Go.
When attempting to catch Sobble, using Pinap Berries is advisable. These berries double the candy you receive, thereby accelerating your evolution process. If you find yourself running low on Pinap Berries or prefer using Razz Berries, consider setting Sobble as your buddy Pokémon or transferring any excess Sobble you possess.
By selecting the Sobble route in the Galar Calling quest, you will have a reliable way to collect enough candy to fully evolve Sobble into Inteleon. Choosing which Sobble to evolve should be done thoughtfully to ensure a strong addition to your Pokédex with favorable IV levels.
Conclusion
Good luck on your quest to capture Sobble in Pokémon Go! Whether you are a seasoned player or relatively new to the game, following these strategies will enhance your chances of successfully adding this captivating Pokémon and its evolutions to your collection. Happy hunting!
