Graveler is a Rock/Ground-type Pokémon featured in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. It evolves from Geodude to Graveler and from Graveler to its second evolution, Golem. In previous Pokemon titles, trading was the only method to evolve specific Pokemon, where you would trade the specific Pokemon with your friend to initiate the evolution.
In Pokemon Legends: Arceus, players can now opt for other ways to evolve Pokemon. In this guide, we will explain how to get Graveler and how to evolve it into Golem in Pokemon Legends: Arceus.
How to get Graveler
Graveler is not very rare in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. You can easily obtain Graveler in the game as it is quite common in the Hisui Region. Here are some locations in the Hisui Region where you can catch Graveler:
| Region | Location |
| Obsidian Fieldlands | Oreburrow Tunnel Sandgem Flats |
| Crimson Mirelands | Gapejaw Bog Scarlet Bog Ursa’s Ring Bolderol Slope |
| Cobalt Coastlands | Windbreak Stand Firespit Island Islespy Shore Sprong Path |
| Coronet Highlands | Havenward Lookout Bolderoll Ravine Clamberclaw Cliffs Celestica Ruins |

How to evolve Graveler into Golem
Once you’ve acquired Graveler, you will need an item called a Linking Cord for its evolution. You can easily get the Linking Cord by purchasing it from the Trading Post in Jubilee Village, costing you 1000 Merit Points.
To purchase, interact with the trader named Simona, select “I want to get items,” and choose Linking Cord in the list.
Request 64: Getting To Know The Ghosts
If you don’t want to spend your Merit Points, you can complete Request 64: “Getting to Know the Ghosts” quest to get the Linking Cord.
Talk to the Ward in the Jubilee Village to initiate the quest.
This quest requires you to reach Research Level 10 with Gastly to finish its Pokedex Entry. You can do this by scaring Gastly “5” times by using Scatter Bangs but make sure it doesn’t notice you. After this go back to the Ward and the quest will be completed, rewarding you with the Linking Cord.
Additionally, if you are lucky enough you might find Linking Cords in Space-Time Distortions. As it drops a variety of rare Pokemon and Items, it might take some while before you find Linking Cord.
When you get your hands on the Linking Cord, simply open your Inventory and “Use” the Linking Cord on the Graveler to evolve it into Golem.
