The new Flying/Psychic-type has made its debut in the Hisui region. Here’s how to get Hisuian Braviary, including its evolution method and exact location.

Nintendo Switch players are transported to the land of Hisui in the Sinnoh origins title. Here, there are many regional Pokemon that can’t be found anywhere else.

One of these is Hisuian Braviary, which has now swapped its usual Normal/Flying-type for Psychic powers.

How to evolve Hisuian Braviary in Pokemon Legends Arceus

Rufflet is found by Lake Acuity.

Unfortunately, you won’t be able to add the bird to your team until you reach the Alabaster Icelands after beating the fourth Noble Pokemon.

Follow the steps below to obtain the ‘mon in Pokemon Legends Arceus:

  1. Once in the Alabaster Icelands, head straight north to Lake Acuity.
  2. Braviary’s pre-evolution, Rufflet, will be fluttering about around here. Catch one.
  3. It won’t evolve until level 54, so either use Rare or Exp. Candy to boost its level or keep it in your Party until it reaches it.
  4. When it’s ready to evolve, its Poke Ball icon will flash. Click “Evolve” > “Do it!” to make it transform.

You can evolve it at level 54.

How to catch Hisuian Braviary in Pokemon Legends Arceus

Alternatively, you can also catch the regional form in the Alabaster Icelands too, but you need Jet Balls which you unlock by progressing your Survey Corps Rank.

  1. Go to Snowpoint Temple which is just east of Lake Acuity.
  2. Enter and make your way through to the top.
  3. Once there, you’ll see a white triangle structure. Walk up it to the very top.
  4. Look out and you’ll see a Hisuian Braviary flying around.
  5. Use your Jet Balls and, with good aim, catch it. It may take a few tries so we’d recommend bringing at least 30 Balls with you.

And that’s all there is to it! Now you should be the proud owner of a Hisuian Braviary.
