How to get Misdreavus, Mismagius & Flutter Mane in Pokemon Scarlet Violet: Paradox form

Misdreavus and its evolution Mismagius return in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet alongside a brand new paradox form exclusive to the Scarlet version. Here’s a rundown of everything you need to know about them.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet have a variety of new Ghost-type Pokemon for trainers to encounter, like the adorable Greavard or the mischievous Gimmighoul.

However, plenty of Ghost-type Pokemon from past Generations have returned too, including Misdreavus and its evolution Mismagius — which are exclusive to the Pokemon Violet version.

Additionally, Misdreavus received a brand new Ancient form called Flutter Mane, which is exclusive to Pokemon Scarlet. Here’s everything trainers need to know about the Misdreavus family in Generation 9.

Where to find Misdreavus in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

First off, Pokemon Violet trainers looking to catch a Misdreavus for themselves should only look at night. Additionally, Misdreavous are often found near ponds.

Specifically, players should look for Misdreavus in the following areas:

• South Province (Area Three)
• South Province (Area Five)
• South Province (Area One)
• South Province (Area Four)
• South Province (Area Six)
• West Province (Area Two)
• West Province (Area Three) – around the southern area
• Glaseado Mountain – near the rivers and streams on the western side
• North Province (Area One) – near the rocky, western side
• East Province (Area Three)
• Tagtree Thicket
• Zapapico
• East Province (Area One)

Where to find Mismagius in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

While Mismagius is found in fewer areas than Misdreavus, players can still find it out in the wild. Like its pre-evolution, Mismagius is only found at night and commonly around ponds and lakes.

Trainers can find Mismagius in the following locations:

• South Province (Area Six) – near the mouth of the river
• Casserova Lake
• Glaseado River – around the ponds and rivers on the western side
• North Province (Area One) – around the lake in the northeastern corner

How to evolve Misdreavus into Mismagius

If players want to raise a Misdreavus to Mismagius, evolving it is a simple process. Trainers who want to evolve Misdreavus need to use a Dusk Stone.

Evolution stones can be found across the Paldea region or purchased from the Delibird shop.

Where to find Flutter Mane: Paradox form

Finally, Misdreavus received a new Ancient paradox form exclusive to Pokemon Scarlet. So while Scarlet version owners can’t catch Misdreavus in their game, they can catch its Ancient form, Flutter Mane.

Here’s where players can find Flutter Mane in Pokemon Scarlet:

• The Great Crater of Paldea (Area Zero) – players must reach the endgame credits first

Additionally, while Flutter Mane looks similar to Misdreavus, it has a new type combo: Ghost/Fairy. This makes it the second Pokemon with that type of combination aside from Alola’s Mimikyu.

And that’s everything players need to know about finding Misdreavus, Mismagius, and Flutter Mane in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.
