Pokemon Legends Arceus: How to Evolve Budew into Roselia & Roserade

If you’ve got a Budew or Roselia you want to evolve into Roserade in Pokemon Legends: Arceus, look no further – here’s how you do it!

Legends: Arceus has brought back plenty of fan-favorite Pokemon, including all of the classic Sinnoh evolutions introduced in Gen 4.

While Pokemon like Togetic’s evolution Togekiss and the powerful Electric-type Electivire might get more attention, Roserade is another very strong, and possibly even underrated Gen 4 evolution.

Even if Roselia joined the series in Gen 3, its baby form Budew and its evolved form Roserade debuted in Gen 4 and have been popular since then. However, to evolve Roselia into Roserade, you’ll need a special evolution item.

Although, if you don’t fancy getting this evolution item, catching the Alpha Roserade might be a better way to check off that Pokedex entry!

Leaks suggest that 158 more DLC Pokemon could be coming to Legends: Arceus soon to expand the roster. However, Roserade will certainly be one of the most powerful Grass/Poison types until then.
