The Indigo Disk DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet<\/a> brings brand-new, and previously unseen, Pokémon and Pokémon evolutions into the game. While trainers are already hard at work exploring brand-new areas and battling powerful trainers, completionists will also want to round out their Pokédex. <\/p>\n

As is custom with newer Pokémon games, simply evolving a Pokémon by leveling it up seems to be a thing of the past. Now, trainers will need to jump through a myriad of hoops to evolve powerful Pokémon. The same goes for Duraludon, which received a brand-new evolution as part of the Indigo Disk DLC. <\/p>\n

Here, we’ll cover how to evolve Duraludon into Archaludon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk DLC. <\/p>\n

How To Catch Duraludon In Pokémon Scarlet & Violet The Indigo Disk DLC<\/h2>\n

Before we can evolve Duraludon, we first need to catch one. Duraludon can be found in The Indigo Disk’s northwestern polar biome. Alternatively, you can trade with a friend to obtain Duraludon or use Pokémon Home to transfer one from Pokémon Sword & Shield. <\/p>\n

Once you have a Duraludon in your party, you will need to acquire a new item called a Metal Alloy. This item can be purchased from the School Store in Blueberry Academy for 300 Blueberry Points (BP). Blueberry Points are a new DLC currency that can be obtained by completing Blueberry missions.<\/p>\n

After acquiring the item, simply select it from your inventory and use it on Duraludon as you would an elemental stone. Your Duraludon will then immediately evolve into Archaludon.<\/p>\n

Archaludon retains the same Dragon-Steel typing as its pre-evolution but gains a signature move called Electro Shot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
