All Evolutions

The fourth generation invented more ways to evolve than any before it: gaining a level at Mt. Coronet or near a moss-covered rock, holding an item at night, knowing a specific move… Here are all the evolutions of Sinnoh’s Pokémon, followed by where to find the items that trigger them.

The table follows the Platinum Pokédex order and also covers Diamond and Pearl Pokémon. “Level up” means the Pokémon evolves the next time it gains a level, at any level, if the condition is met.

Happiness is built up by keeping the Pokémon in your party, walking with it, giving it vitamins, having it massaged in Veilstone City, or healing it without letting it faint. A Pokétch app lets you check it.

✨Sinnoh’s new methods

• A magnetic location: Magneton and Nosepass evolve by gaining a level at Mt. Coronet.
• Two rocks: Eevee becomes Leafeon by gaining a level near the moss-covered rock in Eterna Forest, and Glaceon near the ice-covered rock on Route 217.
• A held item, by day or night: Sneasel (Razor Claw) and Gligar (Razor Fang) at night, Happiny (Oval Stone) during the day.
• A known move: Aipom (Double Hit), Lickitung (Rollout), Tangela, Yanma and Piloswine (Ancient Power), Bonsly and Mime Jr. (Mimic).
• A companion: Mantyke evolves into Mantine if it gains a level with a Remoraid in the party.
• Three new stones: Shiny Stone (Togekiss, Roserade), Dusk Stone (Mismagius, Honchkrow) and Dawn Stone (Gallade for a male Kirlia, Froslass for a female Snorunt).
• Gender: only a female Combee becomes Vespiquen; Burmy becomes Wormadam (female) or Mothim (male).
• Beauty: Feebas becomes Milotic when its Beauty is maxed out, thanks to Poffins.
