Chandelure is one of the strongest Pokemon in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, but obtaining it can be a tricky task. Not only are Litwick and Lampent, Chandelure’s pre-evolutions, difficult to find, but evolving them into their final form requires a special method.

Trainers hoping to get the Fire/Ghost Pokemon on their team will want to know the exact method for finding and catching Litwick or Lampent, as well as how to evolve them into Chandelure in Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Here’s the breakdown.

How to Get Litwick and Lampent in Pokemon Legends: Z-A

Litwick Location

Litwick can be found in the Lumiose Sewers in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, which first becomes accessible during Main Mission 19: Reaching Rank D, where trainers have to find Gwynn of the Fist of Justice. During this mission, players will unlock the entrance to the Lumiose Sewers by freezing a water fountain with the help of a Pokemon that knows Ice Beam.

After the mission is over, players can return to the Lumiose Sewers by triggering Side Mission 057: The Camerupt Entrepreneur (location shown above). To start this mission, head to Blue Sector 3 and find Herup, the Camerupt trainer, standing in front of the entrance to the sewers. Trigger the mission by talking to him, and he will leave, opening up the path into the Lumiose Sewers.

Lampent Location

Litwick evolves into Lampent at level 41 in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, so players who catch a Litwick from the Lumiose Sewers can level it up and have it evolve once it reaches the minimum level requirement.

Alternatively, trainers can also catch Lampent in Wild Zone 17 at night. Wild Zone 17 unlocks after Main Mission 24: Reaching Rank C is completed.

How to Evolve Lampent into Chandelure in Pokemon Legends: Z-A

Lampent Evolution Level

Use a Dusk Stone on a Lampent to have it evolve into a Chandelure in Pokemon Legends: Z-A instantly. There is no level requirement attached to this evolution, which means players can get Chandelure as soon as their Litwick evolves or when they catch a wild Lampent.

It is also possible to catch a wild Chandelure as an Alpha Pokemon in Wild Zone 20 in the post-game.

Chandelure’s Mega Stone, Chandelurite, can be purchased for 360 Mega Shards at the Quasartico Mega Shard Exchange after completing Main Mission 20: A Request from the Rust Syndicate.

Dusk Stone Locations in Pokemon Legends: Z-A

There are three ways to get a Dusk Stone to evolve Lampent into Chandelure in PLZA:

  1. Dusk Stones can be purchased from the Stone Emporium for 3,000 Poke Dollars each after the main story has been completed.
  2. Dusk Stone is one of the rewards for completing Side Mission 83: Honedge’s Cutting Edge, which unlocks after Main Mission 25: Reaching Rank C.
  3. There are six Dusk Stones that can be found as glowing red Poke Balls in various areas across Lumiose City. The locations of all six Dusk Stones in PLZA (as well as other evolution stones) are displayed in the map below.

In addition to letting Lampent evolve into Chandelure, Dusk Stones can also be used to evolve Doublade into Aegislash.
