How to Evolve Roggenrola and Boldore into Gigalith in Pokémon Go

When you think of Rock-type Pokémon, classic Gen I monsters like Geodude, Graveler, and Golem might come to mind. Yet, Gen V brought us a cool new Rock family – Roggenrola, Boldore, and Gigalith.

These three pure Rock types are great in a fight. They pack a punch and can take a beating both in the standard games and in Pokémon Go.

So, you got a Roggenrola and you’re itching to evolve it into a powerful Gigalith in the mobile game? Here’s how you can do it.

The Steps to Power

Evolving Roggenrola into Gigalith is pretty easy, and you have a couple of ways to get there.

First off, get 50 Roggenrola Candy. This transforms the little guy into Boldore. Next, you can choose: get more Candy or trade with a friend.

Trading Boldore to evolve it into Gigalith mirrors how it’s done in the main games.

No Partner? No Problem!

If trading isn’t an option, no worries. You can gather 200 Roggenrola Candy and evolve Boldore into Gigalith that way. It’s more work, but you don’t have to rely on trading to get your strong Rock Pokémon.

Gathering Candy

If you’re collecting Candy, there’s plenty of ways to get it. Catch more Pokémon or hatch them from eggs, for example.

Remember, getting your Boldore to evolve into Gigalith might take some effort, but it’s totally worth it. Whether you trade or gather Candy, you’re on your way to having a mighty Rock-type Pokémon in your team. So, gear up and start collecting those candies!
