Okay, so Pokémon Legends: Z-A doesn’t have *all* the Pokémon, its Pokédex is a bit smaller than usual. But honestly, that doesn’t mean it’s easy! A lot of Pokémon don’t just evolve by leveling up. I’ve been finding some that need a super high friendship level to evolve, and it’s kinda tricky figuring out how to get them there. It’s not always obvious what you need to do!
Here’s a complete list of all Pokémon that evolve this way, plus tips on how to quickly become friends with your Pokémon.
Friendship isn’t the only way Pokémon evolve! We’ve also compiled lists of Pokémon that evolve through trading and using evolution stones to help you complete your Pokédex.
How to quickly raise Pokémon friendship – Legends ZA

Okay, so I just discovered the *fastest* way to max out friendship in Pokémon Legends: Z-A! All you need is a little bit of money. Basically, if you take the Pokémon you want to befriend with you and buy a coffee at *any* café in the city, their friendship level goes up! Seriously, every single coffee you buy and enjoy with them gives a boost. It’s super easy and way faster than anything else I’ve tried.
Once you’ve repeated this process a few times, simply raise the Pokémon’s level, and if you’ve built up a strong bond with it, it will evolve.
