How to evolve Hisui Sneasel into Sneasler in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

To evolve Hisui Sneasel into Sneasler in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, you need to use a razor claw on it during the day.

Once you have a Razor Claw, make sure it’s daylight – go to sleep if you have to – before selecting the item from your inventory and using it on the Hisui Sneasel you want to evolve. Now all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the evolution cutscene!

You can get a Razor Claw in Pokémon Legends: Arceus from the Trading Post for 1,400 merit points.

If you’d rather save your merit points for something else, this item can also be found by defeating or catching Hisui Sneasel in the wild. You may need to defeat a number of Hisui Sneasel to find one, but you’ll progress through their research tasks by doing so!

Location of Management Sneasel in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Sneasel’s original Johto form can also be caught in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

This Pokemon is a dark and ice type and can only be found in space-time distortions that spawn in Obsidian Fields.

If you hunt this Pokémon, you will have to wait for one of these events to form, and when it does, keep in mind that the Pokémon in it are quite powerful. For this reason, we recommend stocking up on health items and Great or Ultra Balls, as well as bringing your strongest Pokemon.

The space-time distortions will eventually fade, so you’ll need to act fast to find your Sneasel.


Our Pokémon Legends: Arceus walkthrough will guide you through this new adventure! It starts with selecting your starter Pokemon, before you’re tasked with completing the Hisui Pokédex by completing research tasks, and tackling your first boss fight against Kleavor and how to evolve Scyther into Kleavor and Scizor . Likewise, here is a list of all new or changed evolution methods and how to evolve Eevee in all Eeveelutions too! Don’t forget to increase your star rank and also complete requests, such as the Strange Happenings at Night and Wisp locations. You can also make your Pokémon more powerful by increasing their Effort Levels. There are also new regional Hisui variants to nab and having save files of Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, Sword and Shield, as well as Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee will unlock additional rewards.



How to evolve Johto Sneasel into Weavile in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

If you want to evolve a Johto from Sneasel to Weavile in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, then you still need a Razor Claw. Yet this time you must use the razor claw on Sneasel at night.

Weavile also spawn in space-time warps that occur in Obsidian Fields, so you may find one with better effort levels than the Sneasel you plan to evolve.
