Wondering how to evolve Ralts into Kirlia, Gallade, and Gardevoir in Pokemon Go? This fan-favorite creature has some special evolution requirements to separate it from Gardevoir, so here’s everything you need to know.
The majority of evolutions in Pokemon Go are pretty straightforward, requiring you to simply stock up on a specific amount of Candy by catching them, battling with them, and playing with them before evolving them into their next form.
But some Pokemon have special evolution requirements that can make this whole process a little more complicated. One of these Pokemon is Kirlia, which evolves from Ralts and can become either Gardevoir or the significantly rarer Gallade when it evolves.
Below, you’ll find all the evolution requirements you need to meet to get both Gallade and Gardevoir in Pokemon Go, which should help you avoid wasting those precious resources on the wrong evolution.
How to evolve Ralts into Kirlia in Pokemon Go
Before trying to get a Gallade or Gardevoir in Pokemon Go, one must evolve Ralts into Kirlia. This can be done with 25 Candy.
How to evolve Kirlia into Gardevoir in Pokemon Go
Evolving Kirlia into Gardevoir is relatively straightforward, as 100 Candy are needed. Then, follow the usual evolution process by visiting their Pokemon page and tapping the ‘evolve’ button.
For those struggling to earn enough Candy, remember to use Pinap Berries when catching any member of the Ralts/Kirlia/Gardevoir family and transfer any spare ones that are not needed for some bonus Candy.
How to evolve Kirlia into Gallade in Pokemon Go
The main way to get Gallade in Pokemon Go is to evolve a male Kirlia with the help of 100 Candy and a Sinnoh Stone.

It’s important to point out that Kirlia caught in the wild cannot evolve into Gallade, which means this evolution process begins by catching a male Ralts. Shadow or Purified Kirlia also cannot become Gallade.
Check to see if a Ralts or Kirlia is male by tapping on them and looking for the gender symbol you need next to their name. It’s best to do this as soon as possible to avoid wasting time evolving or powering up the wrong one.
For those struggling to find a Sinnoh Stone in the game, this item can sometimes be earned by defeating Team Go Rocket Leaders or other Trainers in the Go Battle League, but it’s not guaranteed. We’ve got a Sinnoh Stone guide that might help.
The main thing to remember here is that any Ralts (male or female) can eventually become a Gardevoir, but only a male Ralts with the help of a Sinnoh Stone can end up becoming a Gallade.
