Glimmet and its evolved form, Glimmora, are now available to catch in Pokémon Go!
The recent ‘Into the Depths’ event has added Rock and Poison-type Pokémon from the latest generation, creating some unique and potentially powerful combinations for battles.

Most players can get a Glimmora fastest by exploring routes in the game and finishing the ‘Into the Depths’ Timed Research quest, which is free to complete.
The quest is simple to complete, but will take you a fair amount of time to do.
We recommend checking out optional routes – this could help you find a reward faster, all while you continue working towards the main reward for finishing the quest.
Currently, you can’t find shiny versions of Glimmet or Glimmora in the game, so collectors will have to wait a bit longer.
How to evolve Glimmet into Glimmora in Pokémon Go explained
Fortunately, evolving Glimmet into Glimmora in Pokémon Go is simple – you don’t need to complete any extra steps or tasks first, unlike with some other Pokémon.
To help your Glimmet evolve, gather 50 Glimmet Candy. You can get more candy by using a Pinap Berry when you catch Glimmet and by making it your Buddy Pokémon.
I’ve learned that if I catch a bunch of Glimmets, or just walk around with one as my Buddy Pokémon for a while, I’ll quickly get enough Candy to evolve it. It’s pretty straightforward, really!
