Pokémon GO - How to Evolve Galarian Farfetch'd to Sirfetch'd

How to Evolve Galarian Farfetch'd to Sirfetch'd

In the main Pokémon Sword and Shield games, evolving Farfetch'd to Sirfetch'd takes an extra effort compared to most other characters. Of course, it's not too new for the series, but for Pokémon GO, the new mechanic is quite unique. It all seems to work with research tasks. These quests have been in the game for a long time but have been linked to evolution, allowing unique quests to unlock the ability to evolve certain species of Pokémon.

For Galarian Farfetch'd, players must choose the one they want to evolve and set it as their buddy, then complete 10 excellent throws in order to unlock the ability to evolve them into Sirfetch'd. Once this task is completed, you should be able to select your Galarian Farfetch'd friend and evolve him into his more powerful Sirfetch'd form. However, great throws can be difficult to make, requiring you to hit the center of the aiming circle when it's small enough. However, Legendary or Mega Raids offer a lot of solid options for making great throws, so try to complete some and be patient with your throws.

I find it best to use the circle play method, holding the Poké Ball until the circle hits what looks like great throwing territory. Then let go of the ball and don't touch it until the Pokémon attacks. During the attack animation you can grab the ball and throw it and the circle should have stayed the same size. Otherwise, you hold it too long before throwing it or you touch it too early / late. Just work on your timing and you should start making those great throws. Hit ten of them and this is how to evolve Galarian Farfetch'd into Sirfetch'd in Pokémon GO.
