With every update to Pokemon Go, there are more and more Pokemon out there for players to discover and catch. These Pokemon can range from the very powerful legendary to the still powerful but much less rare from every possible generation in the series. Some of these Pokemon can be caught out in the wild, while with others the player must catch their unevolved forms to acquire the more powerful versions.
Recently Pokemon Go decided to add in a Sinnoh region exclusive Pokemon, Rampardos. This rock-type fossil Pokemon is extremely powerful and has access to several very strong rock-based attacks. Players will definitely want to add this Pokemon to their team whenever possible to deal some serious damage against Flying, Fire, or Bug-type Pokemon that they are forced to fight against. This guide shows players how to acquire Rampardos.
Pokemon Go: How to Acquire Rampardos
The issue with gaining access to a Rampardos is that it never appears out in the wild. This means that players will never have the opportunity to throw a Pokeball at the creature and add it to their party. Instead, players will be forced to find the rare Cranados out in the world and evolve it using Cranados candies, which can take a significant amount of time.
Fossil-type Pokemon are incredibly rare to find out in the wild so in order to track them down players will have to patient. Luckily, for the player Cranados appears more often at nearby Pokestops so players can hang out near one to find more of the rare Pokemon. It is also a good idea to drop a lure nearby in order to draw in as many Cranados as the player possible can.
Once players have picked up a powerful Cranados they will need to start feeding it candies to level it up. In order to get it to evolve players will need to feed it fifty candies, so it's a good idea to have a pretty large stock of Cranados before attempting to evolve it. After all of this though, players will become a proud owner of a brand new Rampardos. This Pokemon has access to both Rock Smash and Rock Throw which are extremely strong rock type moves that are also pretty fast. This makes Rampardos a great choice during raid battles.
Pokemon Go is available on iOS and Android.
