Throughout the history of Pokemon, many evolutionary stones and other similar items have been added to the games. Not all are as common and widely used though. The Dusk Stone is one of them that only evolve a handful of Pokemon, but those Pokemon are quite popular. Here’s how to get a Dusk Stone in Pokemon Sword and Shield.
How to Get a Dusk Stone in Pokemon Sword Shield
Finding One on the Ground
There are two primary ways to get a Dusk Stone in Pokemon Sword and Shield. Here’s our break down of where you can locate one of the currently known drops that you can find in the open.
First, use the Flying Taxi to travel to Stow-on-Side. If you don’t where that is it’s because you haven’t progressed far enough into the game, you’ll know you have access to it when you have it available to you as a location to fly to.
When you get there head to the town’s Pokemon Center. Look for the sign to the right of the center, then run behind it and look just behind the right corner of the building. Pick up the Pokeball on the ground and bam, you have a Dusk Stone. Easy peasy.
Farming via Digging Duo
There is another way to get Dusk Stones in Pokemon Sword and Shield, and it’s via the Digging Duo in the Wild Area. Using this method you can farm them in the likely event you’ll need more than just one or two.
The Digging Duo can be found in the Wild Area and if you give them Watts, you have a chance of them finding rare items for you, including the Dusk Stone. Make sure you select Reward focused digging though to make sure it’s in the loot pool.
