The Pokémon series has had special evolution requirements for certain Pokémon since the beginning of Generation I. When a Pokémon from a prior generation comes into a newer game, like Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, generally, the requirement to evolve stays the same. Misdreavus, a Generation II Pokémon, has had a special evolution since Generation IV, and you can use this method in Paldea. Here’s how to evolve Misdreavus into Mismagius.
