Do you want to evolve your Swirlix in Pokémon Legends? Follow the steps enclosed within this guide to make your way to a strong and massive Pokémon that will knock your opponents out in a battle. So, let us get to the steps and begin.
About Swirlix
Swirlix is a Fairy-type Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, listed with the Lumiose Pokédex number #098. It is typically found in Lumiose City, which you must be familiar with if you have played the game enough. It is often around cafés like Nouveau Café or Café Gallant, sometimes even appearing on food trucks or patio umbrellas, lolling around. Its spawn location may alternate with Spritzee, but you will find your way to catch up. To evolve Swirlix into Slurpuff, you must have it hold the item Whipped Dream and then trade it to another player. Sounds difficult? It isn’t, really. The Whipped Dream item can be obtained as a reward, such as from completing Side Quest 14: Slurpuff’s Cafe Visit after reaching Main Mission 7: Reaching Rank W, and the rest you can do with some convincing!
Where to find Swirlix in Legends ZA?
If you’re looking for Swirlix, you may have to push a little harder. It is adorable and looks like cotton candy, but it is very mischievous in terms of being caught. Swirlix isn’t in the main Wild Zones, and you need to look for it inside Lumiose City itself. It often spawns perched on top of market stalls and food trucks near the city’s many cafés, like we mentioned in the previous section. A very reliable place is around the Nouveau Café, often above the truck in Bleu Sector 5. However, for a change, sometimes a Spritzee spawns there instead, so if you don’t see Swirlix, just leave the area and come back to reset the Pokémon and visit back again. This can be a good idea indeed, or you can catch another Pokémon you find in the meantime.
Steps to evolve Swirlix in Pokémon Legends: ZA
If you really want to evolve this adorable and tiny Pokémon, then these are the steps that you’ll need.
Catch a Swirlix
First, you need a Swirlix, which is then you can evolve it. We have already discussed the locations extensively above so you must have an idea by now. Look out for it in those places.
Get a Whipped Dream
This is the essential evolution item that you’ll have to make it hold. You can usually get a Whipped Dream by completing specific Side Missions in the game, such as Side Mission 14, which is Slurpuff’s Cafe Visit.
Offer the Item
Have your Swirlix hold the Whipped Dream item, and the process will kick in. This is crucial for the evolution to take place, which won’t otherwise.
Make a Trade
Initiate a trade with another player who plays Pokémon Legends: Z-A. While being traded and holding the Whipped Dream, your Swirlix will evolve into Slurpuff upon arrival on the other player’s game. Kind of interesting, isn’t it!
Trade Back – Convince Well!
If you want the Slurpuff for your own Pokédex, the other player will need to trade the newly evolved Slurpuff back to you! So you’ve got to be humble and ask for it back so that you have the evolved version!
