Alpha Eevee is an incredibly rare Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, but with a bit of luck, players can add the Alpha Eeveelutions to their team.

Alpha Eevee can evolve into an Alpha Eeveelution in Pokemon Legends: Arceus.

Eevee is an incredibly rare Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and encountering an Alpha Eevee in the wilds of Hisui is even rarer. Known as the Evolution Pokémon, Eevee has more evolutionary forms than any other Pokémon in the franchise and can transform into one of eight different types. While catching an Alpha Eevee can be a challenge in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, trainers who manage to track down this rare Pokémon will have the chance to add a powerful Alpha Eeveelution to their team.

There are several locations in Pokémon Legends: Arceus where Eevee can spawn, including the Horseshoe Plains in the Obsidian Fieldlands, the Crossing Slope in the Cobalt Coastlands, and both Avalugg’s Legacy and Arena’s Approach in the Alabaster Icelands. An Alpha Eevee has the potential to spawn at any of the locations where Eevee can be found, though the chances of encountering one in the wild are very low. However, Alpha Pokémon have a greater chance of spawning during Mass Outbreaks, so players should keep their eyes out for any Eevee Outbreaks that appear on the map.

Eevee and all of its evolutions can also be caught in the Space-Time Distortions that appear throughout Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and Alpha versions of these Pokémon may spawn in these pocket dimensions as well. However, the chances of an Alpha Eevee or Alpha Eeveelution appearing are extremely slim, so trainers will need to have a bit of luck and a lot of patience before encountering one of these rare Pokémon. Fortunately, if players manage to catch an Alpha Eevee in the wild or during a Mass Outbreak or Space-Time Distortion, it will keep its Alpha status when it evolves, giving players the chance to add the Alpha Eeveelution of their choice to their team.

How To Evolve Alpha Eevee In Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Once trainers have obtained an Alpha Eevee in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, they can evolve it into one of its eight evolutionary forms through the same methods of evolution as a regular Eevee. Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon are the easiest to obtain and will be ready to evolve once trainers give their Eevee a Fire, Thunder, or Water Stone, respectively. Leafeon and Glaceon can also be evolved with the Leaf and Ice Stones, but as an homage to their introduction in Pokémon Diamond & Pearl, players can find the Moss Rock and Ice Rock in Hisui and level their Eevee nearby to evolve it into one of these forms as well.

Espeon and Umbreon will evolve once trainers raise their Eevee’s friendship level enough, though Eevee will become Espeon if they evolve it during the day and Umbreon if they evolve it at night. However, if Eevee knows a Fairy-Type move when it evolves at night with high enough friendship, it will transform into a Sylveon instead of an Umbreon. All Eevee caught in the wild will know the Fairy-Type move Baby-Doll Eyes, so trainers may have to change their Eevee’s move set to get the Alpha Eeveelution they want.
