If you want to trigger a Girafarig evolution, then you’ve come to the right place. We all love giraffes, and as such Girafarig has a special place in our hearts, ever since its debut in generation II in the Johto region. But its snazzy evolution, Farigiraf, joins the Pokédex in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, giving a new lease of life to an old niche favorite.

How do I evolve Girafarig into Farigiraf?

To evolve Girafig into Farigiraf, you simply need to teach it the Twin Beam move. Once Girafig has Twin Beam, level it up to evolve it into Farigiraf.

During its evolution, Girafarig loses the secondary head on its tail, and it instead encompasses the main head, closing like a helmet during powerful moves. Girafarig and Farigiraf are both dual normal and psychic types, meaning they have a great range of learnable moves, including Twin Beam – and are the only Pokémon able to do so.

Where can I find Girafarig in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet?

It’s all well and good learning about Girafarig’s evolution, but you need to locate a Girafarig before you can think about evolving it! Luckily, they aren’t too hard to track down.

To find a Girafarig in the wild in Scarlet and Violet, head to these West Province Area Two, Area Three, or Area Zero.

Can I evolve Girafarig in Pokémon Go?

Unfortunately, Girafarig isn’t in Pokémon Go just yet, but if the Paldean giraffe appears, we’ll update you on how to evolve it right here.

There you have it, how to evolve your very own Farigiraf. If you need some more evolutionary help, check out our guides on Snom evolution, Rockruff evolution, and Scyther evolution to fill out your Pokédex.
