How to Get Cetoddle and Evolve into Cetitan in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

How can something so cute evolve into something so.... spikey

The moment I laid eyes on Cetoddle, I knew that I had to find one. Its goofy, ridiculous smile and perfectly circular body were a siren song I simply could not resist. Cetoddle is everything pure and good about the world. If you feel the same, here’s how to get Cetoddle and evolve it into Cetitan in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

To that end, I set off to Glaseado Mountain to find one of these adorable Terra whales myself. As an Ice-type, it’s no surprise that they can be found in the brisk Northern Province. But they’re most likely to spawn in Northern Province Area One and Three, with a particular preference for deep snow. Hunt here until this adorable little whale spawns!

How to Evolve Cetoddle in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

While Cetoddle is cute and perfect as it is, it’s possible that you want to evolve it into the powerhouse Cetitan. To do so, you’ll need to get your hands on an Ice Stone. Ice Stones, fortunately, spawn on Glaseado Mountain, so it’s likely that you’ll find it while you’re hunting for Cetoddle!

The best way to get your hand on an Ice Stone is to simply keep moving and to keep your eyes open for anything shiny. Ice Stones spawn randomly, so it’s the luck of the draw.

But if you’re simply not having any luck finding a stone, don’t despair. There are other ways to get your hands on the large-and-in-charge Cetitan. They can be found in precisely the same areas that Cetoddle spawn, in Northern Province Area One and Three, though they will stick almost exclusively to deep snow areas. But while you’re hunting for an Ice Stone, why not stick to where Cetitan spawn? Doing so is the most efficient way to fill out your books.
