While you're doing your best to fill your Pokedex Pokemon Legends: ZA And catch them all, you'll hit some obstacles along the way, like Pokemon that require certain items to evolve. Among the required evolution items, there are Evolution Stones.
Evolution Stones are used to evolve a range of Pokemon, with most stones evolving more than one type of Pokemon. If you want to fill up your Pokedex a little faster and evolve all your Pokem evolvingon, here's what you need to know.
Updated October 27, 2025: We've now updated this guide to include an interactive map of where you can find Evolution Stones in the city of Lumios.
Where to get Evolution Stones
Buy from the store
The Stone Emporium on Vernal Avenue, Lumios sells Evolution Stones, on the south side of town.
However, the Stone Emporium will only sell four Evolution Stones (plus Fossils and some Mega Stones) until you complete the main story, after which point, it will sell all Evolution Stones.

Find as object
-
You don't have to wait until you finish the game to get your hands on the other stones, though they can be found. Lumios lurks around town.
Interact with any Red Poke Ball items You'll find them around town, and there's a chance you'll have the Evolution Stone you're looking for.
Once you collect a Poke Ball item, it won't appear there again (unlike the sparkling items you find).
-
You can ask your friends if they have Evolution Stones, and then they can let you deliver the stone to a Pokemon in order to catch and trade it to a Pokemon.
How to use Evolution Stones
Once you have the Evolution Stone you need, Make sure the Pokemon you want to evolve is in your active party And go to your bag. Select the stone from under 'Other Items' and then select 'Use this item' And select the right Pokemon, and it will evolve instantly.
If the Pokemon is not eligible for evolution with that stone, a cross will appear below it. If it can evolve with the stone, a checkmark appears below it.
