How to catch Hisuian Basculin

Basculin can be caught like any other Pokémon: with Poké Balls. You can greatly increase your chance of success by weakening Basculin before you throw a ball at it. Basculin is vulnerable to Electric and Grass attacks, so be sure to hit it with attacks of that type to get its health low. When you feel that it is weak enough (usually when its health bar turns red), toss a Ball at it to catch it.

Basculin Evolutions

Basculin is the first form in its evolutionary line. It evolves into Hisuian Basculegion, which made its premiere in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. You can evolve Basculin into Basculegion by going into your Pokémon stash and manually evolving it once it has met the right conditions.

  • Conditions
    • Basculin must receive a total of 294 recoil damage. This total does not include recoil damage received that leads to fainting.

That's everything you need to know about how to get a Basculin!
