A pretty iconic figure of the franchise, Pokémon'sExeggcute might be less iconic without its punny name, but we sure are glad for the commitment to the bit. There's lots to learn about our sextuplet friend, including that the closer it is to evolution, the more cracks will appear on its shells. Neat, right? In this guide, we also go into its evolutions, locations in-game, moveset, and more, so let's go and learn together.

If you're desperately seeking Exeggcute to add to your Pokédex, we have some handy freebies in the form of Pokémon Go codes and Pokémon Pokopia Mystery Gift codes - hopefully, you'll have no problems tracking it down.
