Pokémon That Evolve with a Stone

Sources checked: September 24, 2026

Use the matching Evolution Stone on a compatible Pokémon. Extra conditions such as gender or regional form still apply. A Pokémon may appear under more than one stone when it has different evolution choices.

The Oval Stone is excluded because its classic method uses a held item during a level-up. In Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, Nosepass does not evolve with a Thunder Stone and the Ice Stone is not normally obtainable.
