Does anyone know why this is happening when I try to evolve it? I have walked 15 km already.

You can’t evolve it while it’s still your current buddy, as that could result in a huge game breaking glitch

Don’t evolve a shiny baby….

I wouldn’t evolve a baby shiny. Those things are rare. You will never get them in the wild. Only way to get those is thru eggs.
CDrocks87
I think you have to change buddies
Also for white it’s worth I evolved my shiny bonsly
TolisWorld
You can do whatever but I wouldnt evolve the shiny baby pokemon, it’s wayyyyyy rarer than it’s evolution! Id love one of those…
LovesTwinks
Why would you evolve it? It’s way more rare than seeing one in the wild
SnooBooks8972
I always just transfer the shiny I catch, bitches be ugly as fuck
SushiThief
Did you hit the little dropdown button (v) next to the “Adventure together to evolve” to make sure you finished everything you needed? You have to complete stuff while he’s your buddy to evolve it.

Game is just trying to save you from something you might regret later.
Big-Spiff
The game seems to be working in your favor

Don’t evolve it! That’s just plain wrong!
elpajaroquemamais
As your buddy. And this is way more rate than the evo
FI5H5TICK5
Because it obviously needs to stay as bonsly

It’s Niantic’s way of saying that you should keep it as it is. Shiny sudoowoodo will be way easier to get. : )

Is it your buddy? If so you need to switch it.
CrazyWS
You need to un-equip it as your buddy first
Big-Put-5859
It doesn’t want to

Keep trying mate

You have to stop being best friend with him, then he will evolve. I did it with my panda

I had issues trying to evolve them when they’re still a buddy. Try swapping buddies, then try again
YayItsOhkz
It’s a sign NOT to evolve it
Pushin_t405
It’s because you’re on a Samsung. 🙃
MrAlmondCranCrunch
You should keep him! Much more rare than shiny sudowoodo

Sorry you didn’t pay Niantic your weekly hundred dollars for coins. You don’t get to play the game anymore
GalayStAr
can’t have it as your buddy while you evolve it
studiohalo
Are you currently in a party? I get that on a lot of things whilst in a party. Opening/sending gifts, gbl etc. I can’t complete a gbl battle at all whilst in a party, it freezes before the end every time.

He just has the same vibe as Ash’s Pikachu

I had this same problem a few days ago trying to evolve a Pawmo, restarting the game didn’t fix it but when I tried again after the daily reset it worked, seems to be an issue with pokemon with buddy requirements to evolve.

If you haven’t gotten an answer, there is a bug where you can’t evolve a buddy via walking, once you get it to whatever KM you need, switch buddies, then evolve, you can switch it back if you want it as your buddy.
haleymatisse
Because he’s too cute to evolve!
MotherTell437
It looks like a error

He has to be actively out on your map. So give him some berry’s and the evolve button will show up
KrazyCAM10
Why would you want to evolve it????
Bluech33se_YT
You have to take it off as your buddy then you can evolve it!😁
Kermi32
It’s a bug. Un-buddy it and it’ll work *but* don’t evolve a baby shiny please
gunhilde
Do not evolve! Super rare shiny baby!!
dangerkart
omg do not evolve this!!!
edit: only a noob would downvote this — shiny sudowoodo is so much more common but babies only hatch from eggs!!
BrusselWestbrook
Because it’s still your buddy. Don’t listen to everyone else, do what you want.
anxiousfox7
Don’t evolve the shiny baby. I made the mistake of evolving my shiny elekid. Haven’t hatched another since 2019.
noparking2to430

Merchantsdaughter
Don’t do it!!! Bonsly is super cute! Sudowoodo you can find in the wild but bonsly is egg only. Deep regret henceforth if you evo
