Evolving Misdreavus requires more than leveling up—specific items are necessary to obtain Mismagius, a powerful ghost-type Pokémon. Here’s a breakdown of the required evolution item and where to locate both the Pokémon and its upgrade.
Where can I catch Misdreavus?
Misdreavus appears nocturnally in specific zones, often requiring stronger Pokéballs in later-game areas. Switch game locations include:
- Brilliant Diamond – Trade with Shining Pearl players (version-exclusive)

- Legends: Arceus – Coronet Highlands (nighttime areas) and Alabaster Icelands
- Violet – Extensive South/West/North Province regions and Terra Raids
How do I evolve Misdreavus?
A Dusk Stone triggers Misdreavus’ evolution into Mismagius. This stone shares uses with Murkrow’s evolution. Dusk Stone locations on Switch:

- Legends Arceus – Wisp trade, Jubilife Trading Post, or Alabaster Icelands
