How to evolve Bellsprout and Weepinbell in Pokemon GO

You can evolve Bellsprout into Weepinbell by using 25 Bellsprout Candy on it. If you evolve Weepinbell into Vicreebel (by using 100 Bellsprout Candy) at any time on April 20 from 2:00 PM to 10:00 PM local time (up to five hours after the Community Day event has ended) it will know the fast attack Magical Leaf. Use as many Pinap Berries as you can during Bellsprout Community Day to make sure you have enough Bellsprout Candy to evolve it and power it up afterwards.
