Today, Niantic has added one new feature to the game & it is called Trade Evolution. Speaking of Trade evolution, it has been an iconic mechanic in the main Pokemon series. Trading certain Pokemon will result in no Candy cost to evolve them.

But you must be wondering, how Trade Evolution works in the game & what will be its benefit. Well, under the Trade Evolution, players will be able to trade an eligible Pokemon to lower the Candy cost to evolve them.
