Finizen is a brand-new Pokemon that was introduced to Pokemon Scarlet & Violet. It is a Water type Pokemon and otherwise also known as the ‘Dolphin Pokemon ‘.
It has one of the strangest methods of evolution – more on that later. Evidently so, many fans find it difficult to catch Finizen as well. Worry not, here’s everything you need to know about how to catch Finizen and evolve it into Palafin In Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.
How to Find Finizen In Pokemon Scarlet & Violet
Firsty, this adorable Pokemon is by no means rare and can be found anywhere along the coastlines of the West Paldean Sea, North Paldean Sea, East Paldean Sea and South Paldean Sea. However, you’ll need to beat your third Titan Pokemon so that Koraidon (Scarlet) and Miraidon (Violet) learn the ability to swim. Alternatively, you can also linger around the beaches on foot as the Finizen may sometimes be close enough to the shore. Once you find Finizen, start the battle and catch it.
How to Evolve Finizen into Palafin
Before going any further, make sure your Finizen is levelled up to level 38. Once that’s done, head to the Union Circle. To evolve into Palafin, you need to play the game with a friend, online or locally, in order to evolve Finizen. At the Union Circle, you can either form your own group or join a Group to go to someone else’s world. Once you have invited your friend, your Pokemon will automatically evolve to Palafin on the spot. That’s it, just sit back and wait for the evolution to complete! Its size, color and appearance will remain the same. A pink heart on Palafin’s chest is the only way you can distinguish it from Finizen, and of course. the massively improved stats!
Furthermore, you can also transform your Palafin into its Hero form. You can do this by keeping it as your active Pokemon. During a battle, simply use the Flip Turn which will make Palafin inflict damage your opponent before switching itself out. Now, the next time you bring Palafin into battle, it will be in its Hero form. This transformation can take the total base stats of Palafin from 457 to a whopping 650! Unfortunately, it is only temporary and Palafin will revert into its Zero form once the battle ends.
