However, Glimmet is a very rare Pokemon with an extremely low spawn rate, so you’ll have to be dedicated to your search and keep your eyes peeled when searching the walls of these habitats highlighted in yellow. For convenience of narrowing down your search to specific locations, here’s a complete list of every area in which Glimmet can be found:

East Province (Area Two)
North Province (Area Two)
South Province (Area Six)
West Province (Area Two)
Glaseado Mountain

Despite Glimmet being one of the rarest non-legendary Pokemon in the game, you can do a few things to increase your odds of finding one. This includes using the Picnic method to force reset the Pokemon that spawn in your location or making an Encounter Power: Rock or Encounter Power: Poison sandwich to increase the spawn rate of Glimmet nearby.

How to Evolve Glimmet Into Glimmora

Glimmet will evolve into Glimmora at level 35. This means you’ll need to just keep leveling Glimmet up by keeping it in your party to earn XP and level it up that way.

If you need a quick leveling boost, you can also use Rare Candies on Glimmet. This will immediately increase its level by one for each candy it’s fed.
