Pokemon Scarlet & Violet brought back plenty of strong Pokemon from past generations, like the Fire/Ground types Numel and Camerupt. Here’s everything trainers need to know about finding these firey Pokemon around Paldea.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet brought back plenty of strong Pokemon from past generations like Tyranitar and Dragapult that make excellent additions to any team.

However, even Pokemon that aren’t considered Pseudo-Legendaries—such as Generation 3’s Numel and Camerupt—can make for powerful assets in battle thanks to their beefy stats and solid type combination.

Trainers will have to put in a bit of legwork to find these two Fire/Ground-type Pokemon, but the effort will be well worth it. So, here’s how trainers can find both Numel and its evolution Camerupt around the Paldea region.

Where to find Numel in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

According to Numel’s Pokedex entry, it is only found around mountainous areas. As such, trainers will commonly find Numel in the mountainous areas in West Province (Area One) and the base of the Asado Desert.

However, it’s important to note that Numel does not like the rain, and its spawn rate will drastically decrease when it’s raining around Paldea.

Where to find Camerupt in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

Like Numel, Camerupt is only found in one area in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: North Province (Area Two). This area is already quite mountainous, so trainers should search both high and low areas for Camerupt.

Additionally, Camerupt does not share Numel’s dislike of rain according to its Pokedex so trainers won’t have to worry about the in-game weather when searching for it.

How to evolve Numel in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

Those who’ve raised Numel in the past will be happy to learn that its evolution method has not changed in Generation 9. To evolve Numel, trainers simply need to raise it to level 33, where it will evolve into Camerupt.
