How to evolve Minccino into Cinccino in Poké mon Go Thank you Chrales for this image of the Unova Stone. In the mainline Pokémon games, you have to use a Shiny Stone on a Minccino into a Cinccino. Shiny Stones, however, are absent from Pokémon Go. Instead, you'll need a Unova Stone to add Cinccino to your Pokédex. You'll also need 50 Minccino candy to make this evolution occur. You can easily earn more Minccino candy by having a Minccino as your buddy, using Pinap Berries when catching a Minccino or by transferring any spare Minccino you might have. Currently live is the Evolving Stars event, which includes the release of quest steps 5 to 8 of A Cosmic Companion - the Season of Light special research quest. Elsewhere, be sure to use Daily Adventure Incense for the chance of encountering Galarian Articuno, Galarian Zapdos and Galarian Moltres. There's also a new special research quest - A Mysterious Incense. Finally - don't forget about the new Prime Gaming rewards every fortnight. Everything we know about Minccino and Cinccino Minccino and Cinccino are Gen 5, normal-type, Pokémon that made their first appearance in Pokémon Black and White. Both of these Pokémon are clearly inspired by chinchillas, with Minccino's category even calling it the Chinchilla Pokémon. Cinccino's category, meanwhile, is the Scarf Pokémon, which refers to how it wears it's own hair like a scarf. There could, however, be a dark twist to this category when you consider how chinchillas are hunted for their fur, which is often used to make scarfs.
