Riolu is a fan-favorite pokemon, and many players are wondering where to find Riolu in Pokemon Sword and Shield. Here’s a guide on where to find Riolu in the new Pokemon games.
How To Catch A Riolu In Pokemon Sword & Shield
It’s a fun, albeit difficult, experience to catch a Riolu in Pokemon Sword& Shield. Riolu, a baby Pokemon of the Fighting type, may occur at random in the Galar region’s Wild Areas. Its precise spawn position and time of day vary from game to game, so keep note of the Wild Areas you’ve previously visited and when you last saw it.
Look for green tall grass patches with a pale blue colour while hunting for a Riolu. Riolu may hide inside these habitats at particular times of day or under specific weather conditions. Grass-type Pokemon are more likely to appear in these environments. If a Riolu does spawn in your selected region, approach it carefully and softly to avoid scaring it away. Throw a Pokeball at it swiftly when it’s near enough or motionless enough.
How To Evolve Pokemon Sword & Shield Riolu Into Lucario
Lucario is an immensely strong Fighting- and Steel-type Pokémon with a variety of potent attacks to aid in combat. Lucario does not evolve spontaneously – it is not found in the wild, unlike certain other Pokémon evolutions. Instead, with a certain item, you must special evolve Riolu into Lucario.
Riolu is a Pokémon of the Fighting type, from which it derives its Lucario form. It must be leveled up to or greater than level 35 while knowing either Force Palm or High Jump Kick. In Pokémon Sword and Shield, Riolu is the only Pokémon that can use these two techniques, and they are both required for Riolu to evolve into Lucario.
Once you’ve accomplished that need, you’ll need to locate the specific item that will cause Riolu to evolve – the Sachet. Your Riolu will turn into Lucario after it has digested it on a Route 6 or 8 camping area. It will not develop if it does not know the right move – Force Palm or High Jump Kick – while ingesting the Sachet, therefore always double check before utilizing the item.
