How to get Gible, Gabite and Garchomp in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Pokémon Legends: Arceus is set in Sinnoh’s ancient past, so Diamond and Pearl’s favorites can still be found scattered throughout the Hisui region, as is the case with the popular Gen IV dragon-type Gible, so we show you how to get it together with its evolutions.

Something we find quite curious is that those looking to add the beloved character to their team will have to search the extensive map to find his hidden location, we make things even easier by showing his exact location and how to get his evolutions from Gabite and Garchomp.

Gible’s location in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Fans of the Dragon will have to wait a bit, as it can’t be found until the last third of the game. Players will first need to progress through their story until they gain access to the Coronet Highlands. Below we will list the easiest steps to find Gible once you unlock the mountain location.

1. After making enough progress in the story, head to the Coronet Highlands to put down the third Noble in the game.
2. Immediately after reaching the new location, Warden Ingo will take you to Wayward Cave.
3. Once inside the cave, keep walking until you trigger a cutscene where the Guardian will leave to fix the torches.
4. After this sequence, you can explore the twisting tunnels of the cave. In one of them, you will find Gible hiding in a corner.

How to catch Gible

After seeing Gible in one of the Wayward Cave tunnels, don’t go near it right away. Instead, stay back and crouch down to lighten the sound of your footsteps. Wait for the ‘mon to finally turn his back on you and throw a Great or Ultra Ball into his back. If the Dragon-type breaks out, run away until you’re out of its line of sight and come back a few seconds later to try again.

Trainers can also use an Oran Berry to distract the creature. If you need to reset your generation, fast travel back to your nearby camp and rest until night and then morning. After doing this, Gible will respawn once more in the same place.

How to get Gabite

Game Freak has given players a few options to obtain Gabite. The first method of getting the Pokemon is to evolve your Gible to level 24. Once it reaches the required level, go to its menu and activate its evolution.

You can also find an alpha version of Gabite wandering around Clamberclaw Cliffs, which is at the top of the map. This is much more difficult as alphas are hard to catch, but it is an option for those who are higher level.

How to evolve Garchomp

To get the final evolution of Gible, you need to level up your Gabite to 48. After gaining enough experience, the Dragon-type will have the option to evolve. However, the fastest way to get Garchomp is to catch Alpha Gabite located in the Clamberclaw Cliffs of Coronet Highland. Since the ‘mon spawns above level 50, you’ll be able to automatically evolve it.
