How to Quickly get Candies for Rare Pokemon

Pokemon Go Nests have been sought out by many users once they were discovered and there are even maps for some locations that have the nests pinned. While I was in Newport, I was lucky enough to experience not 1 but 3 nests! They were close to each other, though I wasn't close enough to the Dratini nest so that still remains a shadow in my Pokedex.

A Pokemon nest is basically where there is an unlimited amount of one type of Pokemon, A breeding ground if you want to get technical. How do you know if you have come across a nest? Well, typically there will be several of a Pokemon showing up on your nearby. It is better it just accidently find a nest because they are so sparse, it would take a redundant amount of time to find a nest by strictly searching for one. 

 Other Pokemon can and will still spawn in nests, but for the most part, nests can be treated like they are unwanted Pidgeys and Weedles, that's how fast the Pokemon spawn. Though if you are after Pokemon just for the Pokedex entry, then I can attest you won't be there long. I got 50 Doduo candies in about a half hour, catching other uncommon's and rares in between.

I don't know the actual locations, but doduo was at the aquarium and Dratini was on one of the bridges close to it. Walking from Newport to Cincinnati on the foot bridge, the nest was to the left near the other bridge I believe you get to the aquarium on. If anyone has exact locations feel free to let me know so I can add them for others.

Changes:

As of today, 7-29-2016 nests have been changed. The Pokemon that used to inhabit a nest now have switched. To check out more information here is a list of Pokemon Nest Switches. Dratini nests now, sadly spawn eevees. I feel like that was a bit of a slap to every Pokemon Go player. Make a well liked/ strong Pokemon into well liked/ common Pokemon everyone has 100s of. Doduos nests however, now spawn Ponytas. Which where I'm from seems to be a fair trade (I have yet to see either in my area). Zubats... no one cares about them obviously, either I didn't find an actual nest because there aren't any Zubat nests, or Niantic has the same appeal to them as the average player does.

Pokemon Evolution Chart Here is something I found a while back. It was something I was planning on doing a post over but it seems as if someone already beat me to it. All credit goes to Ericdrowell. This post is good for those who are wanting to know how many candies it would take to get their favorite Pokemon.

How To Get The Eeveelution You Want

I am unsure how known this is, one of my friends told me about it last night, so I tried it... it works! I evolved about five Eevees last night testing this theory and  it doesn't seem to be a 100% but I would say it is a fairly high chance given it worked for me four out of the five times. Anyways here is what to do!

Say you want have two of the three eeveelutions, and you have tried several other times to get that last one. (Yes this is what happened to me -.-) Before you evolve your eevee, simply give it one of the three nicknames.

Pyro - Flareon

Rainer - Vaporeon

Sparky - Jolteon 

I'm pretty sure there is about a 99% chance of getting the evolution you want, but I would save up on the eevee candies until you can evolve a few just to be safe, and don't forget to give the eevee you want to evolve a nickname. In my opinion it is worth saving all your eevee candies until you get closer to level 20 so you can get higher CP eevees.
