Ember won’t evolve? Here’s your next step.

LEVEL 4Upgrade Ember to level 5.You still need one move level.
LEVEL 5 · NO POWERTake the Power run card.Menu upgrades do not satisfy this condition.
LEVEL 5 · POWER TAKENPick the Fire Blast gold card.Eligibility alone does not transform the move.

Choosing your first partner? Slowpoke: 110 HP + Confusion. Froakie: 108 speed + Water Gun. Choose room for mistakes or faster movement, then compare all 29 starters.

Three rules worth knowing.

Active means active.

Only the selected unbonded attack slot fires. A legendary bond can make linked attacks fire together.

Earn the gold card.

Max the move, take its matching run stat card, then select the offered evolution.

Keep regional pity.

Each banner tracks its own five-star counter. Changing regions does not transfer pity.

Find the answer. Get back to your run.
