Eevee Evolution affected through naming?

[iKasu2kx3]

After talking to some Friends, I've heared the rumor that if you name your Eevee in a specific way ( `referenced to the Brothers in the Series ), they
will evole to their respective element:

Sparky => Jolteon
Rainer => Vaporeon
Pyro => Flareon


I've evolved my Eevee ( named Sparky ) and got a Jolteon but since I don't have more Eevees to check ( 3 more left ) I can't tell
if this is true or just bad luck. Any Information here on this site?

No, i read on reddit where they debunked the moves thing. It's RNG

Increadible, worked for me once!

It's random

Renamed Eevee to Pyro and got a Flareon....

Not sure if RNG or NAME.....

It's not random. This works every time, it has been tested countless times by different people.

I recommend going to Reddit before posting: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/c...lve_into_your/
Countless people are confirming it. I would recommend taking a video of the eeveelution (hah) with the name, that way if it doesn't work we have some counter-proof. As of right now it seems to be working.
