Unevolved Pokemon are those that are still able to evolve in Pokemon Sleep by using candies after meeting certain conditions. Read on for a list of all unevolved Pokemon in the game, the best unevolved Pokemon to have, and information on how to evolve unevolved Pokemon.

Best Unevolved Pokemon in Pokemon Sleep

Best Pokemon for the Good-Night Ribbon

Onix with a Level 2 or 4 Good-Night Ribbon

Frequency Comparison	Onix	Steelix
Base	00:51:40	00:50::00
Level 2 Ribbon	00:49:05	00:50::00
Level 4 Ribbon	00:45:28	00:50::00

The only Pokemon that can outspeed its final evolved form if given a Good-Night Ribbon is Onix. This isn't counting Vigoroth, whose base frequency is already faster than the evolved Slaking.

This makes Onix the best unevolved Pokemon to make use of the Good-Night Ribbon's level 2 and 4 frequency bonuses.

Best Unevolved Pokemon

Vigoroth is Faster Than Slaking

Base Frequency Comparison
Vigoroth Base Frequency: 53 mins 20 secs	Slaking Base Frequency: 1 hr 3 mins 20 secs

Despite not being fully evolved, Vigoroth is significantly faster than Slaking. This may be because Vigoroth is an energetic Pokemon by nature, wheras Slaking is well-known for, well, slacking off.

Because of this, having Vigoroth over Slaking is generally preferred unless you need Slaking's increased base carry limit.

Best Unevolved Water Types for Suicune Team

Best Unevolved Water Types
Wartortle Base Frequency: 56 mins 40 secs	Croconaw Base Frequency: 56 mins 40 secs	Quaxwell Base Frequency: 1 hr

Best Unevolved Fire Types for Entei Team

Best Unevolved Fire Types
Charmeleon Base Frequency: 50 mins	Quilava Base Frequency: 50 mins	Crocalor Base Frequency: 51 mins 40 secs

Similar to the best Water types, the best Fire-type Pokemon you can use in Pokemon Sleep are the second evolution forms of each of the starter Pokemon from different regions. These Pokemon are best used when trying to fill a Fire-type Entei team or a Tapue Hollow team.

How to Evolve Unevolved Pokemon

Fulfill Evolution Requirements

In order to evolve your Pokemon, you need to fulfill certain requirements and have enough of your Pokemon's specific candy. The requirements differ per Pokemon, so make sure to check what your Pokemon needs by tapping on the Evolve button on their information page when viewing them from the Box.

Most Pokemon only need to reach a certain level in order to evolve, though many also have special evolution conditions such as needing a specific item or a certain amount of sleeping time.
