How to evolve Applin in Pokémon Scarlet and Purple

In Pokémon Scarlet and Purple we will find all kinds of curious evolutions such as Maushold or Gimmighoul , but also some already known ones such as Applin . This apple Pokémon introduced in the eighth generation with Shield and Sword is also present in Paldea and, in the same way, can transform into its different versions. Therefore, in the following guide, we will tell you how to find Applin and how to evolve it into Flapple or Appletun.

Pokémon Scarlet and Purple Guide: How to Evolve Applin into Appletun or Flapple

Applin is one of those Pokémon that have several evolutions, so we will have to choose which transformation we want or get two Applin to have one of each. Luckily, we can find specimens of this Pokémon in forested areas such as Area 1 (South) or in Lake Cazola. They can appear at any time of the day, but they are not especially frequent. It is possible that you search and search and they do not appear. 

Another alternative if we don’t want to waste time searching is to participate in the 1-star teraraids in which it appears. On the other hand, if we have the ability to crash into trees with our legendary, we can get one to fall from them in a more accessible way.

How to get Appletun and Flapple

Once we have achieved the most complicated part – obtaining Applin – evolving it is not as difficult as it may seem. We need two very specific objects , which are the following:

  • Sour Apple:An item that allows Applin to evolve into Flapple. It can be obtained from the Delibazard, however, you may need to progress through the story a bit before it appears in the shop.
