Pokemon Go Players Can’t Evolve Cosmoem into Solgaleo & Lunala
Trainers, the Astral Eclipse event is underway and two new Pokemon, Solgaleo and Lunala, are now available in Pokemon Go. To get one, you must evolve Cosmoem, but it seems like some players are not able to evolve Cosmoem into Solgaleo, or Lunala.
Solgaleo and Lunala are two new Pokemon introduced in Pokemon Go. These Pokemon don’t spawn in the wild, they are not hatching from Eggs or spawning as Raid Bosses, and the only way to get one is via evolution and using 100 Cosmog candy. Now, there are two steps that one must follow to get Solgaleo or Lunala, and trust me, it’s not that complicated.
Now, here is what you have to do to get Solgaleo.
How to Get Solgaleo in Pokemon Go?
- Get a Cosmog
- Use 25 Cosmog Candy to evolve Cosmog into Cosmoem
- After evolving into Cosmoem, you can use 100 Cosmog Candy to evolve into Solgaleo
- Note: This is a daily evolution, which means that you must evolve Cosmoem during the day to get Solgaleo
And here is how to get Lunala.
How to Get Lunala in Pokemon Go?
- Get a Cosmog
- Use 25 Cosmog Candy to evolve Cosmog into Cosmoem
- After evolving into Cosmoem, you can use 100 Cosmog Candy to evolve into Lunala
- Note: This is a night evolution, which means that you must evolve Cosmoem during the night to get Lunala
Now, let’s get back to the topic and try to find a fix for this issue. The following might not work for everyone, but we recommend trying it. If you have enough Candy and you can’t evolve Cosmoem, and you don’t see the evolve button, then try to restart the app and try to evolve Cosmoem again. If this doesn’t work, some reports say that a second restart may fix the issue.
Do you have this issue and can’t evolve Cosmoem? Did our tip help? If not, how did you fix it? We would like to hear more, so please leave a comment below.

We’re sorry to hear that. You should try contacting Niantic support. https://niantic.helpshift.com/hc/en/6-pokemon-go/contact-us/?p=all&contact=1
Same here! Used rare candies so I’d have enough, restarted the app & my phone several times. Nothing.
Me too keep restarting with no luck even though I have 102 candies
Worked for me first try also. Didn’t know the fix would have been so simple ♂️
Thanks!
Glad it worked! Have a great day!
Yay!! Worked like a charm on the first try. Thank you so much!!!❤️
You’re welcome!
The restart did NOT work for me. Restarted the game app 4 or 5 times. Did a shutdown and restart on my iPhone. Nothing is working.

This takes me to a help page that requires I select :

Ban appeal
Login issue.
I don’t see missing evolution option and if you leave blank it says must select
I had already evolved my Cosmog into Spacer, now I don’t have the option to evolve it into one of the other two options I need for the quest, I need a new cosmog, but I’m not sure how to get one. Any suggestions are appreciated
I have reached out to Niantic support. Nothing is working and my 100 candies are sitting there…useless. I have restarted the phone, the app, checked for updates, and nothing has made the magic button appear.
Great post!!! Thanks for the restart tip. After restarting the app the evolution option appeared.
One restart and now working! Thanks!
I restarted the game and the evolve button finally showed up! Thank you!
Did everything you said multiple restarts etc no option also contacted support via your link however that link had no help for missing buttons either
The evolution toggle appeared last night. But after i updated today. It wont appear. I restarted 3x already. It wont show. Help.
Hii, I’ve restarted pokemon go a bunch of times even restarted my phone and cosmoem will still not show the option to evolve, is there anything else I should try?

same issue here. Think it was from the game update causing issues.
Same issue here.
Same problem, many restarts of phone and app, link didn’t help. Still no magic button.
I had to log out of pokemon go and close out the app. When I opened back up the pomemon go and logged in, I was able to do the evolution
