"[Request] Can someone with plenty Eevee candies test naming them after the Kimono Sisters before evolution?"


#PokemonGO: FINAL EDIT: I was having another playthrough of Crystal last night when this idea popped into my head. Initial reports seems to indicate that we were on to something (as evident by the early edits below). Sadly, it does not work. I was hopeful as Eevee are rare for me and the ability to predetermine another evolution would've helped me immensely. Thank you everyone for trying. I searched TSR for this but found nothing.Has anyone tried naming an Eevee after the rest of the Kimono Sisters to try force a specific evolution? If it doesn't work it seems like a missed opportunity by Niantic.Eevee aren't that common where I am so don't really want to waste candy :( For reference:Koume - FlareonSakura - Espeon (Confirmed to work)Tamao - Umbreon (Confirmed to work)Sumomo - VaporeonSatsuki - Jolteon EDIT: Preliminary results...4 users got positive results with 10 different naming attempts. 2 users did not get positive results with 2 attempts. Based on this it seems the positives may be coincidence.Unless there is something else at play here? u/JV19 is one of the negative results, but states he has not used Sakura/Tamao yet either. EDIT 2: Another two users confirmed it did not work from them. Initial positives seem to be coincidence.Myth (seems to be) busted. EDIT 3: I got a PM requesting me to add the question "Have you previously used Tamao and Sakura?". When posting results, please include this in your answer. Also, maybe indicate if you've previously evolved one via the buddy method? Yet another EDIT: Something u/mrob27 pointed out in this comment: "I went ahead and tried all five names that I hadn't yet used...All five worked...If it's just RNG, then it's a 1-in-243 chance."1-in-243 is a crazy coincidence for them to all work (granted, two of them were Pyro and Sparky, which we know work). And many other users have stated that all 3 new names I proposed work. It seems there may be another factor at work.Can someone with better research and data collating ability perhaps run with this theory? via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2m1c8nx
