Clamperl in Pokémon Go is an interesting one. The Water-type clam-based Pokémon can evolve into either Huntail or Gorebyss here and in the mainline games, but how it works in Go is very different to that of the main console games.

One way to make sure you get hold of a Huntail is to trade for it. There’s probably a load of people out there with multiple Huntails willing to trade one for a Gorebyss. Maybe one of your friends has one they're willing to trade?
