How to Catch Machop and Evolve It into Machoke/Machamp in Pokémon GO
Pokémon GO, the popular augmented reality game developed by Niantic, allows players to catch and train various Pokemon creatures. One such Pokémon is Machop, a powerful fighting-type monster that can evolve into Machoke, and eventually into the mighty Machamp. In this article, we will guide you on how to catch a Machop and evolve it into its more advanced forms.
Catching Machop
To catch a Machop, players need to be aware of its preferred habitats and spawn rates. Machop can usually be found in urban areas, near parks, gyms, and highways. You may encounter it more frequently during events or at specific times when Niantic increases spawn rates for fighting-type Pokémon.
To increase your chances of encountering a Machop, it is recommended to use Razz Berries and Ultra Balls when attempting to catch it. These items can be obtained by spinning PokéStops or through rewards for completing field research tasks. Using these items will increase the likelihood of a successful capture.
Evolving Machop into Machoke
Once you have caught a Machop, it’s time to evolve it into its first evolution, Machoke. To evolve Machop, you will need to collect a specific number of Machop candies. Each time you catch a Machop, you will receive three candies. You can also obtain candies by transferring unwanted Machops to Professor Willow. Once you have collected enough candies, follow these steps to evolve your Machop:
1. Open your Pokémon collection by tapping the Poké Ball icon at the bottom of the screen.
2. Find the Machop you want to evolve and tap on it.
3. Scroll down and locate the “Evolve” button. Make sure you have the required number of candies.
4. Tap the “Evolve” button to evolve your Machop into Machoke.
Evolving Machoke into Machamp
After evolving Machop into Machoke, you can further advance its evolution to Machamp. Similar to the previous evolution, you will need a set number of Machop candies. Each Machoke you catch will reward you with five candies. Follow these steps to evolve your Machoke into Machamp:
1. Go to your Pokémon collection.
2. Select the Machoke you want to evolve.
3. Scroll down and locate the “Evolve” button. Ensure you have enough candies.
4. Tap the “Evolve” button to transform your Machoke into Machamp.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can catch a Machop and evolve it into both Machoke and eventually, Machamp in Pokémon GO. Remember to visit habitats where Machop spawns frequently, use Razz Berries and Ultra Balls for a higher capture rate, and collect enough candies to facilitate the evolutions. Train your Machamp well, and it will become an indomitable force in your Pokémon GO battles!
