After Pok\u00e9mon Day 2023, Niantic officially added connectivity with Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet\u2014unlocking the true potential of Gimmighoul Coins as a result. But what is a Gimmighoul Coin, you may be asking? Well if you haven\u2019t played Scarlet and Violet, it is the key to the mysterious Ghost-type Pok\u00e9mon Gimmighoul who mysteriously arrived in Pok\u00e9mon Go but was not catchable when it first appeared.\u00a0 Gimmighoul love collecting coins, typically hoarding them in a treasure chest they inhabit around Paldea. However, by defeating, capturing, or interacting with different things you can collect them for yourself and use them later on to unlock a pricy surprise. Most of that concept extends to Pok\u00e9mon Go, though you won\u2019t be finding them in chests while playing from your phone.\u00a0 What are Gimmighoul Coins for in Pok\u00e9mon Go?\u00a0 Gimmighoul Coins serve one purpose in Pok\u00e9mon Go\u2014they are a method to evolve Gimmighoul into Gholdengo.\u00a0 Gholdengo is Pok\u00e9mon 1,000 in the National Pok\u00e9dex and, as such, has a very specific evolution requirement revolving around Gimmighoul Coins. But don\u2019t worry, obtaining a Gholdengo is worth the effort, as it is a very useful Pok\u00e9mon to have thanks to its Ghost\/Steel typing.\u00a0 Once you collect 999 Gimmighoul Coins you can evolve your Gimmighoul into a Gholdengo. This is the only way to obtain the Pok\u00e9mon in both Pok\u00e9mon Go and the Gen IX games unless you trade for one with someone willing to give up on something they spent potential days grinding for.\u00a0 How to get Gimmighoul Coins in Pok\u00e9mon Go Because you need Gimmighoul Coins to evolve Gimmighoul, you will want to collect them as quickly as possible. However, that is easier said than done since there isn\u2019t one way to speed up your collection process.\u00a0 There are two ways you can collect Gimmighoul Coins consistently: catching Gimmighoul (Roaming Form) or using a Golden Lure Module. Gimmighoul (Roaming Form) is exclusive to Pok\u00e9mon Go and only once you use the Coin Bag, an item you obtain by sending Postcards to your copy of Scarlet or Violet through the connectivity features.\u00a0 Related: How to connect Pok\u00e9mon Go to Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet The Coin Bag functions like Meltan\u2019s Mystery Box, acting like a modified Incense that will cause Gimmighoul to spawn more frequently around you for a limited time. It can be used once every three days, and catching a Gimmighoul will net you a number of Gimmighoul Coins to store for later.\u00a0 Your other option to collect coins is to use a Golden Lure Module, which can also be obtained by using the Coin Bag. This updated Lure Module will turn Pok\u00e9Stops into Golden Pok\u00e9Stops and allows you to collect Gimmighoul Coins by spinning the Photo Discs\u2014with a chance to spawn Roaming Form Gimmighoul too.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/27195534\/Gimmighoul-outfit.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/808971"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1706"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=808971"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/808971\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":809030,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/808971\/revisions\/809030"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/808974"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=808971"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=808971"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=808971"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=808971"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=808971"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=808971"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=808971"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
