It only works once, did you already use the name trick?
For it to evolve safely into an Umbreon you need to have it as your buddy, walk 10 km with it, get 2 candies while doing so and evolving it out of the buddy menu at night.
That means it has to be your buddy when you evolve it.
For safety purposes the players in my city wait until it says at least 10.1 km and evolve it after 10pm.
Moltres day was a catastrophe for me.
Game crashed after the first one and I couldn't get it back. Only caught 3 out of 8 raids because it wouldn't stay in the ball- even with the golden berry, great/perfect throws and curveballs.
BUT at least I got a shiny and a 96% Moltres. Still a bit salty about the ones who ran away though. Zapdos and Articuno almost always stayed in the balls.
