How to evolve Charcadet
- Choose the Charcadet you want to evolve and set it as your Buddy Pokémon.
- For Armarouge, defeat 30 Psychic-type Pokémon while Charcadet is your Buddy.
- For Ceruledge, defeat 30 Ghost-type Pokémon while Charcadet is your Buddy.
- Open Charcadet’s evolve screen. Confirm which evolution is available and check the Candy cost shown there, then evolve when ready.
Charcadet does not have to defeat the Pokémon itself; the requirement is to defeat Pokémon of the relevant type while it is your Buddy. Pokémon GO Hub’s March 2024 event guide describes these branch tasks and clarifies that Charcadet need not get the knockout. Pokémon GO Hub event guide
How much Candy does Charcadet need?
Pokémon GO Hub’s Charcadet database lists 50 Candy for either evolution, alongside the matching Buddy task. Pokémon GO Hub Charcadet database Treat that as a reference, not a substitute for the current in-app evolve screen: verify the displayed cost before evolving.
