Meltan was first released in Pokemon Go on 16th November 2018, so I've managed to finally evolve one on the 2 year anniversary! After only completing the research to get one 2 months ago!
Credit to this video for the hints I needed to finally achieve this! https://youtu.be/TUUF4osAO2I
Oh lol I forgot the hat in my image description, it's like a green beret with a white fluffy bobble
Bit more walking, some rare candy and finally!! Next up in the buddy spot, Drowzee, Feebas or Scyther
