Lumiose City never looked quite as exciting and vibrant as it does in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, where Pokemon are hiding around every corner, including in Pokemon hotbeds called Wild Zones. While certain Pokemon, like Hawlucha, like to lurk among the rooftops and out of sight, you'll be able to get other Pokemon, like Victreebel, easily.
Pokemon Legends: Z-A - How To Get And Use The Shiny Charm
Here's how to unlock the Shiny Charm in Pokemon Legends: Z-A and what it's used for.
However, fully evolved Pokemon like Victreebel rarely appear in the wild, and especially not early on during your adventure. So, if you want to get Victreebel fast and start enjoying the incredibly goofy Mega Victreebel design, then we'll show you the best Wild Zone to find Bellsprout.
Where To Find Bellsprout Spawns
While you won't be able to skip straight to catching Victreebel, you can prioritize getting a Bellsprout during the early stages of your adventure by searching Wild Zone Five in the central area of Lumiose City.
Once you reach Wild Zone Five, you'll be on a long street with a handful of Pokemon roaming around the area. Look by the patches of grass next to the curb and you'll soon spot a Bellsprout.
Whittle down its health or rely on the newly introduced brief window of time after knocking it out to catch it.
How To Evolve Bellsprout Into Victreebel
Once you have a Bellsprout, there are two steps you need to complete before you can get a Victreebel:
- Train Bellsprout to level 21 and evolve it into Weepinbell.
- Give it a Leaf Stone to evolve it from Weepinbell into Victreebel.
However, if you don't already have a Leaf Stone, there's a convenient location in the southern section of Lumiose City that sells evolutionary stones called the Stone Emporium.
Head to the Stone Emporium to the south and pay 3,000 pokedollars to acquire a Leaf Stone for your Weepinbell. Navigate into your Satchel, 'use' the Leaf Stone, and select the Weepinbell
Once you finish, you'll now have a Victreebel to add to your team. However, keep playing until you reach Main Mission 13: A Rogue Mega Victreebel if you want to be able to Mega Evolve your new Pokemon.
