How to Evolve Applin into Appletun in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

If you managed to find the tiny apple Pokemon Applin, you’re probably wondering how to evolve it. It doesn’t evolve from mere experience points; it’s too good for that. The only proper way to turn this apple Pokemon into something worthy of the royal fruit is to give it another apple! If an apple a day keeps the doctor away, then two apples must make you invincible.

If you want Applin to evolve into Appletun, you need to give it an item called the “Sweet Apple.”

This can be obtained from the Delibird Presents store in Cascarrafa City. Purchase the “Sweet Apple” from the Delibird Presents, then give it to your Applin.
