Without lucky egg, only 500XP. Unless the evolve gives you a new pokemon which you have not gotten before then you get another 500XP. x2 with lucky egg.

ah ok thanks.

guess I utilize it well then, from lvl 14 to 17 in 30 mins

time to hunt for more bird

Also if you want to maximise your lucky egg, avoid catching evolved forms which you know you will be evolving. In my 2nd mass evolve, I managed 73 evolves (73k) and 11 of this were new so I got another 11k for a total of 84000XP. Check my Nyonya FAQ for the drillz.

Hi TS,

How to do the above?

I just notice on the mass evolved strategy, but maxed out at 30k plus XP only.

This is while you're doing the mass evolve, don't go back to the main map screen. During my first evolve, I did so to check on time remaining. Because my level has gone up, the Level Up animation started and wasted some time. So you don't want to do it. Just keep evolving until the 30mins is up. I use a separate phone as a 30 min timer.

30k XP is quite low. That's only 30 evolves with lucky egg active or 60 evolves without a lucky egg. Did you activate your lucky egg before you start?

it was my first lucky egg as well today I think I only managed 40+, been a rookie making all those mistakes ( lvl animation, check time remaining etc)

Did you use the Favourite/UnFavourite tip? I find this to very important. This eliminates scrolling which saves a lot of time.

To recap, you first favourite all the Pokemons that you want to evolve. As you evolve each one, you unfavourite them after the evolve animation. It's only 1 extra tap. Maybe extra 100ms.

57 quite good already. I got 63 on my first try. I think if you didn't run out of pokemons, you'd be more than me.

Let's see what you get next time. Were you scrolling the pokemon list to find the pokemons to evolve?

Good idea. I didn't think of that. Maybe I can give this a try next time.

Nope i did not use the Fav function, and i even spent time trading off pidgeotto to get more pidgey candy

my first mass evolving:
from level20 - 21, 11 new entry in pokedex, about 60 pokemon evolved.

my second mass evolving:
level didnt increase, 6 new entry in pokedex, about 68 pokemon evolved.

mass evolve with lucky egg could get 90k-100k+ per lucky egg

ignore transfering, just focus on evolve

A couple of mistake though, but i do see that the evolving process screen is time wasting. I ran out of pokemons to evolve and i have to waste time transfer the pokemons to get more candies and evolve another 3 more. I also walking around trying to catch more pokemons.

How many levels that we can achieve as a trainer?

One of the thing that i have to do that time. I will focus catching more pokemons first for these few days.

Ah just completed mine. Really need to count how many Pokemons and candies are available to make sure you have enough to evolve. The game crashed almost to the end! Had to kill it and restarted. Luckily no level up animation once I got in. Quickly evolved one last one before timer ran out.

1 Caterpie
31 Pidgey
24 Weedle
12 Rattata

Still got lefover Pidgeys for next round

Total 68K exp, from Level 20 to Level 21. Someone said should do it at about Level 17 to shoot up to Level 20... got more feel. Mine like no oomph

Now comes the mass Transfer of all the evolved Pokemons

Level 21 need to look for 75K EP pulak..!
Me level 21 still looking another 11K to level 22..LOL

Try the Fav/UnFav tip or the "Renaming" tip that someone posted above. I think they should help a lot. And please no more transferring pidgeotto during evolves.


71k and 74k XP. That's pretty awesome.

Yeah, good advice about ignoring transfers.

I usually prepare 78 evolves before I start. Just in case I gain superspeed. But seriously, the last thing I want is running out of evolves before the timer ends.

I use http://www.pidgeycalc.com/ to double check the candies and pokemons needed. Very handy.

Doesn't matter when you do it, 68k XP now is still 68k XP later but you're right that it's much much more satisfying at 17 and jump to 20. I did mine at 16 to 19 and then 21-22. The 16-19 one, like you said, much more oomph

Lvl 15 newbie here. Just saw this thread about leveling up fast using Lucky Egg. Hmmm seem like I have to catch more pidgey, caterpie and ratata. anyway what's the best combination of pokemons to be evolved? My house area mostly got voltord, pidgey and magnemite.

There's no optimal combination. I just catch whatever that's available. For me, Pidgey and Ratata very common so those 2 make up the bulk of it. Usually I'll catch enough for 78 evolves before I do it.

My last evolve consists of:

1 Bellsprout	1 Bulbasaur	3 Caterpie
1 Dratini	7 Eevee	1 Ekans
1 Gastly	1 Geodude	1 Goldeen
1 Krabby	1 Nidoran ♂	1 Paras
32 Pidgey	1 Poliwag	2 Psyduck
11 Rattata	1 Slowpoke	1 Spearow
1 Venonat	7 Weedle	2 Zubat

If you can do, let's say, 70 evolve in 30 mins. That's 70000XP. If it's the first time evolve for all of the above 21 Pokemons, you'll get another 21000XP.

Pokemon Go for iOS 1.5.0 just released an hour or two ago.

- Implemented Pokémon Appraisal: Trainers will now be able to learn about a Pokémon’s attack and defense capabilities from their Team Leader (Candela, Blanche, or Spark) to determine which of their Pokémon have the most potential for battle.

- Fixed a bug that kept defeated Pokémon at 1HP; these Pokémon will now return as fainted Pokémon. We’re working on rebalancing the training battle, stay tuned.

Nice thread, thanks! Yeah, I didn't know I got Pokécoins if I got into a gym and missed out.

I don't really understand mass evolves yet but I'll look more into it. I need to lvl up for the cooler Pokémons otherwise seems like a lot being wasted.
