How to Evolve Goomy into Goodra in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

Evolving Goomy is a relatively straightforward process. Before Goodra, you’ll need to evolve your Goomy into Sliggoo. You can do this by training your Goomy and raising its level to 40. Once it hits level 40, the evolution process will automatically trigger, and you’ll now have a Sliggoo that you can keep raising to Goodra.

Now that you have Sliggoo, raising it into Goodra involves following the same process and meeting an extra step of evolution criteria. To evolve Sliggoo into Goodra, you’ll need to raise your Sliggoo to level 50 or higher and have it gain a level while surrounded by rainy weather.

With the weather being an unpredictable factor in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, it is recommended you keep EXP booting items handy, such as Rare Candies or EXP Candy M, L, or XL. That way, as soon as it rains, you can feed Sliggoo these items to raise its level and trigger the evolution process. This is the quickest method to evolve Sliggoo into Goodra successfully.
