Key Takeaway

To obtain a Weavile in the wild, you’ll have to search a space-time distortion in the Obsidian Fieldlands. Otherwise, you’ll have to evolve a Johtonian Sneasel at night to get a Weavile.

If you want a Weavile in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, you’ll need to use one of two methods. The first is to catch it in the wild and the second is to evolve it from a Johtonian Sneasel.

    The only place you can find a wild Weavile is in a space-time distortion that spawns in the Obsidian Fieldlands. Weavile will not spawn in space-time distortions of other areas.

    However, the odds of a Weavile spawning are very low. You’ll have to get pretty lucky to find one this way.

    If you have a Johtonian Sneasel, you’ll need a Razor Claw to evolve it. However, this will only work at night. Trying to evolve a Johtonian Sneasel during the day is impossible.

    Where to Find Johtonian Sneasel

    You can only find Johtonian Sneasel in space-time distortions that spawn in the Obsidian Fieldlands. Thankfully, they’re pretty common in the space-time distortions of this area.

    How to Get Razor Claws

    The easiest way to get a Razor Claw is to buy one from Simona in Jubilife Village. Simona sells Razor Claws for 1,400 Merit Points each. In order to get Merit Points, you’ll have to explore and collect lost satchels to return them to their original owners. Each lost satchel that you return will give you between 50 to 100 Merit Points.
