Nidoqueen evolution

Pokémon GO has no evolution levels: a Pokémon evolves when you spend Candy on it (sometimes with an item or a task), at any level.

Nidoqueen evolves from Nidorina for 100 Nidoran♀ Candy.

Nidoqueen is the last stage of its family: it does not evolve further.

Family: Nidoran♀ · Nidorina · Nidoqueen
