Pokemon Scarlet & Violet have a ton of different evolution stones to find, including the rare Ice Stone. Here’s how trainers can find this evolution stone and which Pokemon can use it.
Evolution Stones have been a staple of the Pokemon franchise right from the very beginning with Red & Blue on the Game Boy, although the Ice Stone only made its debut in Generation 7 games Sun & Moon.
This special item is required to evolve certain Pokemon, so if you’ve got an Ice-type Pokemon in your party that just refuses to evolve, the chances are it needs an Ice Stone to get over the final hurdle!
Below, you’ll find all the information you need to find an Ice Stone in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet as well as a list of all the Pokemon that need an Ice Stone to evolve.
Where to find Ice Stones in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet
The main way to get Ice Stones in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet is to search for sparkling Poke Balls on the ground around the Glaseado Mountain region of the Paldea map. Unfortunately, this method is completely random, so trainers will need to keep doing this until they find one.
There is one guaranteed Ice Stone location and that’s just north of the Dalizapa Passage Pokemon Center, on the very edge of a pointy rock inside the caves. You should be able to reach it by jumping.
