There are two main ways to get Heart Scale in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl.

  • Getting from Luvdisc
  • Digging from Grand Underground

Luvdisc has a 50% chance to hold a Heart Scale when you encounter it in the wild. Thus when you catch two of them you are guaranteed to get at least 1 heart scale. Things get better if you teach your Pokemon moves like Covet or Thief. Covet is a normal type move that steals the target’s held item. While Thief is a Dark-type move that attacks and steals the target’s held item. Both of them are excellent ways to get Heart Scales from a Luvdisc without catching one.

Alternatively, you can also dig the Grand Underground to get Heart Scales in this game. The chances of you getting it by digging are very low when you compare it to getting one from a Luvdisc. But it is a method that you can use nonetheless.

How to Farm Heart Scale

The best way to farm Heart Scale is by stealing them from Luvdisc or catching them.

  1. Go to Route 224 and use a Super Rod.
  2. This will help you encounter Luvdisc.
  3. Then use a Pokemon that knows the moves Thief or Covet. Make sure the Pokemon using those moves isn’t already holding a Heart scale or any other item. As they won’t be able to steal if they already have a held item.

How to Use Heart Scale in Pokemon BDSP

As mentioned previously, you can use a Heart Scale in this game to relearn moves for a Pokemon.

  1. Go to Pastoria city and to the house northeast of Pokemart.
  2. Here, outside the house, you will see an NPC near the waterfront. He is the Move Relearner.
  3. Giving the Move Relearner a heart scale will allow him to make your Pokemon relearn a move.

The best part is after you give him 10 Heart Scales he will help your Pokemon relearn moves for free.
