Hisuian Qwilfish is a Dark and Poison-type Pokémon featured in the Hisuian Discoveries, an event bringing a handful of pocket monsters from the Hisui region into Pokémon GO. This event will debut the Hisuian versions of Growlithe, Qwilfish, Sneasel, and Braviary. Hisuian Voltorb, an Electric and Grass Pokémon that appeared previously in Pokémon GO, will also be returning to the AR wild. Hisuian Discoveries will be live from July 27, 2022, to August 2, 2022. Several Pokémon will spawn more frequently during this event, but Hisuian Qwilfish can only be acquired through 7km Eggs. Once Trainers obtain Hisuian Qwilfish in Pokémon GO, they will naturally want to know how to evolve it.
Evolving Hisuian Qwilfish In Pokémon GO
To evolve Hisuian Qwilfish into Overqwil in Pokémon GO, Trainers must feed the pocket monster Candy ×50. Fortunately, the required Candy type is standard Qwilfish Candy, meaning players don’t need to hatch and transfer multiple Hisuian Qwilfish. After winning ten Raids with Hisuian Qwilfish as a Buddy, Trainers can evolve the Qwilfish variant into Overqwil in Pokémon GO.

There are several ways to earn Qwilfish Candy for evolving Hisuian Qwilfish into Overqwil in Pokémon GO:
- Catching Wild Qwilfish: As mentioned above, capturing normal Qwilfish in the wild is the primary way of procuring the necessary amount of Candy for Hisuian Qwilfish’s evolution.
- Feeding Pinap Berries to Qwilfish: Before landing a Poké Ball throw on a Qwilfish, be sure to feed it a Pinap Berry to double the amount of Candy received after performing a successful capture. Silver Pinap Berries have the same effect as regular Pinap Berries but increase the Catch Rate.
- Walking with a Buddy Qwilfish or Hisuian Qwilfish: Trainers can walk with their Qwilfish variants to passively earn Candy. Of course, this method is naturally slow but an excellent means of acquiring Candy while walking and completing other in-game activities.
- Transferring Qwilfish: Transferring any excess Qwilfish will free up one’s Pokémon Storage and provide them with some extra Candy.
- Hatching Qwilfish or Hisuian Qwilfish: Whenever Trainers successfully hatch a Qwilfish variant, they will receive a decent amount of Candy.
Once players have evolved Hisuian Qwilfish into Overqwil in Pokémon GO, understanding the evolution form’s optimal Moveset, strengths, and weaknesses is vital for using it in battle.
