Cobblemon Guide: How to Unlock Every Eeveelution from Eevee

If you’re playing Pokémon in Minecraft with the Cobblemon mod, evolving Eevee is one of the best parts of the whole experience—because you can steer it into multiple Eeveelutions, each with its own specific conditions. Here’s a complete rundown of the requirements and how to put them into practice, including Umbreon and Espeon.

All Eevee Evolution Requirements in Cobblemon

The mod lets you evolve Eevee into eight different forms. To get the right result, you’ll need to hit the required friendship thresholds and/or provide specific moves or items depending on which Eeveelution you want.

  • Friendship level 160, evolves during the day
  • Give Eevee a Thunder Stone
  • Give Eevees a Leaf Stone (for the Leafeon evolution)
  • Friendship level 160, teach Eevee a Fairy-Type move
  • Friendship level 160, evolves at night

To make this easier, here’s the specific path covered for catching and evolving Eevee into Umbreon or Espeon inside Minecraft’s Cobblemon mod.

Where to Get Evolution Stones

Five of the Eeveelutions depend on a particular stone item. Those stones aren’t all in the same place—each is associated with different regions and biomes across your map.

The stone-related areas mentioned are: Desert, Thermal, and Volcanic.

How to Increase Friendship Level

Some Eevee evolutions require raising Friendship level. You can speed this up using a couple of tools and habits.

  • Use a Friend Ball or a Luxury Ball when catching Eevee. A Friend Ball starts Eevee at 150 Friendship, while a Luxury Ball doubles the rate at which Friendship increases.
  • Give Eevee a Soothe Bell to boost the Friendship gained by 50%. (The source also notes an ingredient-style recipe, but it’s presented in a fragmented list rather than as clean crafting instructions.)
  • Keep Eevee out of its ball and walk around with it. Use the R key to take your Pokémon out. You can also crouch and right-click to bring up the wheel, then select shoulder mount so Eevee rides on your shoulder.

How to Teach a Fairy-Type Move to Eevee

To qualify Eevee for the Fairy-Type requirement, you need it to learn a Fairy move—specifically, you’re directed to get Eevee to level 15, where it will learn Baby Doll Eyes.

The recommended approach is to battle other trainers. For that, you’ll need your Trainer Card in your inventory. If you’re going into fights, be sure you know how to revive or heal your Pokémon so you don’t lose progress. To find candies, head to the Ruins and search Gilded Chests.

How to Evolve an Eevee

Once Eevee satisfies the conditions for the target Eeveelution, you still have to actively trigger the evolution.

  • After your Eevee meets every requirement, tell it to evolve.
  • Open the Pokémon menu using the M key, then select Eevee.
  • Press the Evolve button beneath Eevee’s picture.
  • This opens an evolution menu on the right. Select Evolve again under the evolution you want.
