The final Dusk Stone in Pokémon BDSP can be found in the Team Galactic Warehouse as players naturally progress through the story. They'll need to return to Victory Road, enter the part of the cave that was previously blocked by an NPC, and use Strength to move boulders out of the way to reach the Dusk Stone. The Victory Road Dusk Stone can only be obtained once players have the National Dex. This Dusk Stone is in the lower left part of the cavern. For the Grand Underground Dusk Stone, players need to head to the beach on Route 213 and use the Explorer Kit to reach Bogsunk Cave. Additionally, Teddiursa, another Pokémon Shining Pearl exclusive, also has the Pickup ability.ĭusk Stone locations in Pokémon BDSP can be found in the Team Galactic Warehouse, Victory Road, and the Grand Underground. Pachirisu is an excellent choice of Pokémon with this ability, and it's available in both versions. Once a Pokémon with the Pickup ability reaches level 11, they have a certain percentage chance of finding a Dusk Stone on the ground outside of battle if they aren't already holding an item. Just south of the Fuego Ironworks, there’s an entrance to the north side of the meadow on the other side of the river, which players can surf across in Brilliant Diamond Shining Pearl. Luckily, these types of evolution stones can be found in three locations across the Sinnoh region alone, and several times over again from Pokémon with the Pickup ability. A Leaf Stone can be found in the hidden part of Floaroma Meadows to the north of Floaroma Town. To evolve Misdreavus into Mismagius, players will need to find a Dusk Stone. Thanks to the Ground Underground, Misdreavus can also be found in the Dazzling Cave and Stargleam Cavern. In Pokémon Shining Pearl, players can find a Misdreavus in the Eterna Forest and Lost Tower. Honchkrow happens to be one of the best competitive Dark-type Pokémon available in BDSP, so it should be an easy trade for both Pokémon. Conversely, the Brilliant Diamond exclusive equivalents are Murkrow and Honchkrow.


Unfortunately for Pokémon Brilliant Diamond players, Misdreavus and Mismagius are Shining Pearl exclusives, meaning players will have to trade for either. Related: Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Best Team To Beat The Elite Four Trainers who use Mismagius have to be wary of its Ghost- and Dark-type weaknesses, however, especially considering many Dark-type Pokémon moves are physically offensive moves. In particular, Mismagius is an excellent counter for a Psychic-type Pokémon like Alakazam, Mr. Though it may not be one of the best competitive Ghost-type Pokémon in BDSP, Mismagius does have exceptional Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed stats that make it a viable option in certain situations. As a pure Ghost-type Pokémon, Mismagius takes no damage from Normal- and Fighting-type Pokémon moves.
