Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Evolution Items: Stones, locations, shops, & more

Laura Gray

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet players will need various special evolution items and stones to fully evolve each species in the Paldea region and complete the Pokedex. Below is every evolution item and stone and where players can find them.

Evolving Pokemon is one of the primary goals of playing a Pokemon game, and Scarlet & Violet have added new ways to do it. While some species only need to level up to reach their next evolutionary stage, others are more complex. For example, Sword & Shield’s Milcery required players to spin in circles to evolve it into Alcremie, while species like Haunter need to be traded to evolve into Gengar.

For many others, however, unique items and stones will be needed to obtain an evolved Pokemon form. This is most commonly seen with Eevee and its Eeveelutions but also applies to a large variety of different species.

Players raising their teams in the Paldea region may also want to check out this guide on what order to tackle Gyms, or look at which Titan Pokemon to challenge while still at a low level.

Below is everything players need to know to find the Evolution stones and Items in the Paldea region.
