Everything you need to know about evolving Tyrogue in Pokémon GO

Well, if you are on a mission to complete your Pokédex in Pokémon GO , finding Tyrogue would be like coming across something hidden in a jewel stash. This baby Fighting-type Pokémon is from the Johto region and has a special feature: it doesn't evolve into just one, or two, but three different forms, based on how one values its individual stats. Here's a complete guide on catching, hatching, and evolving Tyrogue the best way, just like a trainer.
How to get Tyrogue in Pokémon GOThough often overlooked, Tyrogue is a fascinating case study in evolution mechanics. Much like Eevee, it offers branching evolution paths, but with a stat-based twist that rewards careful planning and observation. Understanding how Tyrogue works can help you build a well-rounded Fighting-type roster with Hitmonlee , Hitmonchan , and Hitmontop at your command. Unlike most Pokémon, Tyrogue isn’t found wandering the wild—he’s strictly an egg-exclusive Pokémon. Here’s how to get him:

Hatch from 5km or 7km eggs.

• 5km Eggs: Earned from spinning PokéStops or Gyms.
• 7km Eggs: Obtained through gifts from friends.

Important tips:

• You can carry up to nine eggs at a time.
• Always incubate to make room for more hatches.
• Tyrogue is one of many potential hatches, so patience is key.
• Egg Pokémon tend to have better IVs, increasing your chances of a preferred evolution.

How Tyrogue evolvesTyrogue evolves into one of three classical Fighting-types—Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, or Hitmontop—not on a whim. Depending on its highest IV stat (Attack, Defense, or HP), Hitmonlee is associated with Attack, Hitmonchan is associated with Defense, and Hitmontop with HP. For that purpose, you'd need 25 Tyrogue candies. The way in which you evolve it will largely depend on how well you understand IVs.


With the Appraisal System update, introduced in the year 2019, checking IVs became downright simple:

• Look for Tyrogue in your Pokémon list and tap on it.
• Tap Appraise.
• Observe the three bars for Attack, Defense, and HP.
• The longest bar points to the most superior stat. And thus, evolution!
• No need to download third-party IV checkers; the official in-game tools are good enough.

Save those Egg Incubators—7km eggs have a slightly higher chance on these specific events. Keep some Tyrogue in your possession so you can evolve all three. Don't be in a hurry; work on building your best Tyrogue that can be used in battle.Tyrogue is often a popular choice during Fighting events, so follow the schedule!
In this ever-expanding world of Pokémon GO, Tyrogue adds fun strategy dynamics to your evolution game. If you are a collector or just a Hitmon trio lover, now you have enough twists and turns to hatch, evaluate, and evolve like a pro.
