The Dreepy evolution line is a bit of a fan-favorite, even holding a special place in the hearts of the PT team. The final stage, Dragapult, is a beast of a Pokémon, serving as Galar’s pseudo-legendary. However, while there’s nothing too unusual about the evolution method, you need to be willing to put in a lot of time and dedication to get Dragapult.
Still, before we tell you how to evolve Dreepy and, subsequently, how to evolve Drakloak, you might want to know more about Rockruff’s evolution, Scyther’s evolution, Budew’s evolution, Bisharp’s evolution, Misdreavus’ evolution, and Salandit’s evolution. Or, if you prefer, we can tell you how to evolve Charcadet and how to evolve Primeape in Scarlet and Violet.
Here’s what you need to know about Dreepy’s evolution.
How do I evolve Dreepy?
Dreepy evolves into Drakloak at level 50. Yes, that’s an incredibly high level requirement to evolve a stage one Pokémon, but given how amazing Dragapult is, it’s more than worth the effort. The best thing to do is to keep Dreepy in your party at all times so it benefits from the EXP share, then give it the various EXP candies you come across. Do that, and you’ll have a Drakloak before you know it.
How do I evolve Drakloak?
Drakloak evolves into Dragapult at level 60. Just ten more levels to go and you get a fantastic pseudo-legendary on your team, so make sure you continue to have your pal in your party and offer it any spare EXP candies you have.
Where can I catch Dreepy?
Tracking down Dreepy isn’t too difficult as it pops up quite often in the locations it appears in:
- Sword and Shield – Lake of Outrage, Axew’s Eye, Rolling Fields
- Scarlet – Tera Raid Battle Search (three-star) and Union Circle
- Violet – South Province (Area One, Area Four, Area Five, and Area Six), East Province (Area Two and Area Three), West Proince (Area Two and Area Three), North Province (Glaseado Mountain), and Terra Raid Battles
Where can I catch Drakloak?
On occasion, you might spot a Drakloak out in the world, eliminating the need to evolve a Dreepy, which can be a good idea as evolving Dreepy takes a lot of effort due to the level you need to reach. You can even catch a low-level Dreepy and a Drakloak separately to avoid an incomplete Pokédex.
Here’s where you can find Drakloak on Nintendo Switch:
- Sword and Shield – Lake of Outrage, Axew’s Eye, Rolling Fields
- Scarlet – Tera Raid Battle Search (three-star) and Union Circle
- Violet – North Province (Area One, Area Two, Area Three, Casseroya Lake, and Glaseado Mountain) and Terra Raid Battles
Where can I catch Dragapult?
Dragapult sometimes appears in the wild or raids in the following locations (just make sure you have some ultra balls):
- Sword and Shield – Axew’s Eye, Rolling Fields (max raid), Old Cemetery, and Three-Point Pass
- Violet and Scarlet – five and six-star Terra raid battles
How do you evolve Dreepy in Pokémon Go?
To evolve Dreepy in Pokémon Go, you need to give it 25 candies. Then, to evolve Drakloak into Dragapult, you need to give it 100 candies, meaning the entire evolution line requires 125 candies. As we already mentioned, Dreepy isn’t that common, so this may take some time.
