Sneasel evolves into the powerful Pokémon Weavile by having it hold a Razor Claw and then leveling it up specifically at night.
Understanding Sneasel's Evolution
To evolve your Sneasel into Weavile, you need to meet three specific conditions:
- Obtain a Razor Claw: This is a special evolution item.
- Equip the Razor Claw: Have your Sneasel hold this item.
- Level Up at Night: Gain at least one level with Sneasel while it's holding the Razor Claw, and ensure it's nighttime in the game.
How to Get a Razor Claw
The Razor Claw is a key item for Sneasel's evolution. Here's how you can acquire it:
- Purchase Location: You can buy a Razor Claw from any Delibird Presents store.
- Availability: These stores are usually accessible very early in the game, with one prominent location being in Mesagoza. You can typically purchase the item from the start of the game once you reach one of these shops.
Step-by-Step Evolution Guide
Follow these steps to successfully evolve your Sneasel:
- Acquire the Razor Claw: Head to a Delibird Presents store (e.g., in Mesagoza) and purchase a Razor Claw.
- Give the Item to Sneasel: Open your in-game bag, select the Razor Claw, and then choose Sneasel from your Pokémon party to have it hold the item.
- Wait for Nighttime: Play the game until the in-game clock shifts to night. The environment will visibly darken, indicating it's nighttime.
- Level Up Sneasel: Engage in a battle, use an Exp. Candy, or any other method that grants experience points to Sneasel, causing it to gain a level.
- Observe Evolution: Once Sneasel gains a level while holding the Razor Claw at night, the evolution sequence will trigger, transforming it into Weavile.
