How to evolve Kadabra in Pokémon Legends: Z-A
In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, Kadabra evolves into Alakazam through a simplified process compared to past games. Instead of requiring a trade, players can now use a special evolution item known as the Linking Cord. This item can be purchased at specific vendors, found during exploration, or earned through missions. Once you have the Linking Cord, simply open your inventory, select Kadabra, and use the item to trigger its evolution instantly. This method allows solo players to fully evolve their Abra line without relying on trading.
Kadabra can only evolve in Pokémon Legends: Z-A through trading. Your Kadabra does not have to be a specific level or hold any items to evolve into Alakazam. The only requirement is that you’ll need to find a trading partner.
Unfortunately, this does mean that you’ll need either a Nintendo Switch Online membership or a local trainer who also has Pokémon Legends: Z-A.
To evolve Kadabra into Alakazam, follow these steps:
- Press X to open your menu.
- Select the “Link Play” option.
- Select the “Link Trade” option.
- Choose “Nearby Players” if you’re trading locally or “Faraway Players” if you’re trading via the internet.
- Enter an 8-digit Link Code to connect to your trade recipient.
- Select your Kadabra and send it off for a trade.
Your Kadabra will evolve right after the trade completes, rather than just getting an arrow and prompting a manual evolution.
If you’re coordinating with another trainer who also wants an Alakazam, you can both trade Kadabra to then both receive Alakazam. Additionally, you can also trade other Pokémon that evolve through trades, like Haunter. You will still have to trade back to receive your original Alakazam.
If you need somebody to trade with, you can use the trade code “0063 0063” to get matched up with other players also looking to evolve their Kadabra. Note that they may not trade you back your original Pokémon, though.
Find a local trade partner for Pokémon Legends Z-A Kadabra evolution
To find a local trade partner for evolving Kadabra in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, you should use the in-game “Link Play” feature for trading. Here’s how to do it:
-
Press X to open the main menu.
-
Select “Link Play,” then choose “Link Trade.”
-
Opt for “Nearby Players” to look for local trade partners physically near you.
-
If you want a broader pool including remote players, select “Faraway Players” and use a Trade Code.
-
You can connect with other players looking to trade Kadabra by entering the trade code “0063 0063.” This code matches you with others who want to trade Kadabra to evolve it into Alakazam.
-
Once connected, trade your Kadabra. Kadabra will evolve instantly during the trade.
-
After Kadabra evolves into Alakazam, your trade partner can trade the Alakazam back to you if agreed.
Remember, you’ll need to have another person nearby with a copy of Pokémon Legends: Z-A who is willing to trade. Using the trade code “0063 0063” is a common way to find compatible trade partners locally or online. If no local players are available, consider using the “Faraway Players” option online to find others.
This is the established method for evolving Kadabra by local trade in Pokémon Legends: Z-A.
