Pokémon Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee launched with only 152 Pokémon that players are able to catch, and although this number is small, there are still a bunch of creatures that fans can get their hands on to use inside of Pokémon battles. Some of these Pokémon evolve in different ways, such as leveling up or using evolutionary stones; however, there are also a few creatures that can only evolve by trading with other players.

Pokemon Let’s Go: Ranking All Of Eevee’s Special Moves
The Partner Eevee in Let’s Go is pretty special. Here are all the special moves it can learn, ranked.
There are a total of four Pokemon in Let’s Go that will evolve by trading with other players. Pokemon that evolve by trade are often some of the most powerful in the game, and that largely holds true here.
If you lack a means by which to trade on your Switch, or just can’t find anybody within the console’s framework who’ll trade with you to make these excellent evolutions happen, there is another way: get them in Pokemon Go, transfer them to Let’s Go, and catch them in the Safari Zone.
Graveler – Golem
The easiest way to initially obtain a Graveler is to catch the Pokémon as a Geodude within Mt. Moon, and you can do this very early on in their game. Geodude evolves into Graveler at level 25.
You will need to trade Graveler with another player if you wish to evolve it into Golem. Golem is a very powerful Rock/Ground-type Pokemon with a high speed stat and moves such as Rock Tomb and Earthquake.
Haunter – Gengar
Gengar is the only Ghost-type evolutionary line in the Kanto region. Unfortunately, Gengar is more difficult to obtain than the regular Pokemon in the game because it requires you to have traded a Haunter to evolve.
Gastly and Haunter can both be caught in Lavender Town within the Pokémon Tower. Since this is Let’s Go we’re talking about here, catch a ton of them while you’re at it, because hey, why not. But if you want Gengars out of them, alas, trading is required.
Kadabra – Alakazam
,
Alakazam has a very high special attack stat, a decently high speed, and can deal a great deal of damage with Psychic and several other learnable moves. Abra, the initial species in this line, evolves into Kadabra at level 16.
Alakazam evolves from Kadabra when it is traded. Abra can be caught near Vermilion City on Route 6. Leveling is fairly swift for this little fellow, and since Kadabra comes up so quickly, it won’t be long before that Alakazam’s all yours.
Machoke – Machamp
Machamp’s strength is, predictably, its greatest asset. It’s up there with Marowak for the best Fighting-type Pokemon in Let’s Go, and getting one on to your team is a good goal to keep in mind.
Machop can be obtained from Rock Tunnel, and much later on, Victory Road. Machop will then evolve into Machoke at level 28. From there, well, you know what to do.
