How to Catch Cranidos in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Indigo Disk

If you’re hoping to go back in time to a more prehistoric era, finding Cranidos is one of the easiest ways to make that happen. If you’re hoping to get your hands on this little dino and its evolution, you’ve come to the right place.

Where To Find Cranidos in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

If you’re hoping to find Cranidos in Pokemon Scarlet, you’ll need to head to the Canyon Biome at Blueberry Academy. While they’re fairly easy to find, you’ll need to keep your eyes peeled for this little dino, since they are rather small overall. If you’re lucky enough, you may also find them in any of the raids around Blueberry Academy.

If you’re hoping to get your hands on Cranidos in Pokemon Violet, you’ll need to trade with someone who happens to have a copy of Scarlet, as they are versions exclusive to that game. Maybe offer a Shieldon in exchange?

Cranidos in the wild will normally have a Blue and Gray color unless you’re lucky enough to encounter a Shiny version, which will replace that blue with a sharp Red color. While Shiny Pokemon are not as common in Scarlet and Violet as you’d like them to be, they’re still rather abundant.

How To Evolve Cranidos into Rampardos in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

If you’re hoping to get your hands on a Rampardos, the evolution process is rather simple. You’ll just need to level up Cranidos to at least Level 30 to start the evolution process. After this point, you’ll have a new Rock Pokemon to add to your team. They’re a good Pokemon to have through the Midgame, but may not be the most competitive overall throughout the endgame.
