how to get gimmighoul without coing bag

Yes — you can get Gimmighoul without the Coin Bag in a few limited ways, depending on what’s available right now. The most common alternatives are special event research rewards, Golden Lure PokéStops, or trades from other players.

Main ways

  • Event research: During some limited-time events, Gimmighoul has been offered as a free Timed Research or Field Research reward. One example was the 9th Anniversary Coin event, which gave a special Gimmighoul encounter without needing the Coin Bag.
  • Golden Lure PokéStops: Spinning a PokéStop with a Golden Lure can give Gimmighoul encounters very rarely, and it also drops Gimmighoul Coins.
  • Trade from another player: Another player can trade you a Gimmighoul if they already have one.

What does not work

The Coin Bag is still the normal, reliable way to spawn Roaming Form Gimmighoul, and it normally requires linking Pokémon GO with Pokémon Scarlet or Violet through a Nintendo Switch.

Best practical answer

If you want one right now without the Coin Bag , your best bet is:

  1. Check whether there is an active Gimmighoul event or research reward.
  1. Visit Golden Lure PokéStops if other players are using them.
  1. Ask a friend to trade you one.

Note

Some event versions of Gimmighoul may be limited or special, and not always evolve the same way as the standard one.

TL;DR: You usually need the Coin Bag, but event research, Golden Lure stops, and trades are the main ways to get Gimmighoul without it.
