How Does Evolution Work in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon DX
InPokémon Mystery Dungeon DX, players need to complete the main storyline beforethey can evolve the Pokemonin their Rescue Team. They can only evolve Pokemon at a time, and the Pokemon must be set as the team leader. In addition to that, each Pokemon also has to meet some specific requirements for its evolution which is similar to the mainline games. Some require special items like a Link Cable, Lunar Ribbon, Beauty Scarf, specific elemental stones, etc. in order to evolve.
Once the player completes the main story, they need to head over to the Whiscash Pond above the Pokemon Square. In order to evolve successfully, the Pokemon must be alone in the party, so players need to leave all other team members on stand by. The Luminous Cave will be available after players beat the main storyline and players will be able to send the lone Pokemon into the Luminous Cave to evolve them. If thePokemon meets its evolution requirements, then it will evolve, if not then the cave will notify the player about what is required for the evolution.
