Quick Links
Pokemon such as Cetoddle and Eevee can evolve with the help of an Ice Stone. As their name implies, these evolution items are found in cold areas of Paldea and Terarium. InPokemon Scarlet & Violet, a handful of Pokemon evolve with an Ice Stone, so it’s best to farm them if you plan on completing the Pokedex.Scarlet & Violet’s open-world gameplay gives you free rein, but it’ll be easier to track down this evolution stone once you’ve progressed through the main quests/storylines.
Ice Stone Locations
Paldea and Terarium
Ice Stones can be found on Glaseado Mountain, Chilling Waterhead (Teal Mask), and Polar Biome of Terarium (Indigo Disk). There are two in Paldea that are definite locations (ie: Poke Ball items), and one in Kitakami:
In the Polar Biome, you will find “golden sparkles” on the ground just as you would anywhere else. These can be items ranging from berries to Poke Balls, but you may chance upon an Ice Stone. There’s no way to 100% ensure you’ll get an Ice Stone via this method, so you’ll want to pick up anything on your path.
You can also obtain Ice Stones from theItem Printer in Blueberry Academy’s Club Room. Getting the Item Printer will require 200BP, which you can upgrade three more times to obtain more than one item from the printer.
Which Pokemon Evolve with Ice Stones?
And How to Get Them
Currently, there are six Pokemon that need Ice Stones to evolve. InScarlet/Violet, there are five Pokemon, due to Galarian Darumaka’s absence from the Paldean/Kitakami/Blueberry Pokedex. You will need an Ice Stone for the following:
Cetitan
West Province (Area Three), Glaseado Mountain
Certain Pokemon will have their typing changed when an Ice Stone is used on them. For example, Alolan Ninetales is Ice/Fairy-type, giving it access to moves that are super-effective against Dragon-type. However, it gainsa 4x weakness to Steel-type movesand 2x weakness to Poison-type.
