📖 How to Complete the Pokédex in Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! (100% Kanto Dex) 🎯
Completing the Kanto Pokédex (all 151 Pokémon) in Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! requires catching, evolving, trading, and transferring Pokémon. Here’s a step-by-step guide to get all of them.
✅ Step 1: Catch Every Pokémon Available in the Wild
✔️ Most Pokémon can be found in the wild, so start by catching every species you see.
✔️ Some Pokémon only appear in specific locations (e.g., Chansey in Cerulean Cave).
✔️ Use Lures to increase rare Pokémon spawn rates.
✅ Step 2: Version-Exclusive Pokémon (Trade Required)

💡 Solution: Trade with a friend or use Pokémon HOME (if compatible in the future).
✅ Step 3: Evolution-Based Pokémon
Some Pokémon only evolve under special conditions:
1️⃣ Level-Up Evolutions

✅ Step 6: Meltan & Melmetal (Pokémon GO Required)
Meltan cannot be caught in Let’s Go—you need Pokémon GO!

3️⃣ Use it to spawn Meltan in Pokémon GO, then transfer Meltan to Let’s Go.
4️⃣ Melmetal can’t evolve in Let’s Go, so evolve in Pokémon GO first.
✅ Step 7: Mew (Poké Ball Plus Required)
Mew is only available with the Poké Ball Plus accessory.
| Pokémon | How to Obtain |
