Corvisquire Guide
In Scarlet & Violet, Corvisquire isn't fully evolved, so it's not built for competitive play. You'll want to evolve it into Corviknight to unlock its full potential. At 365 BST, it's a stepping stone rather than a team anchor.
In Scarlet & Violet, Rookidee evolves into Corvisquire at level 18. Corvisquire evolves into Corviknight at level 38. Corvisquire is a middle-stage evolution in the Rookidee line.
Keen Eye is the go-to ability for Corvisquire. It prevents accuracy from being lowered. Its hidden ability Big Pecks can work in specific setups. Unnerve is the other option. Pick based on what your team needs.
In Scarlet & Violet, Corvisquire fills the balanced role. It's leaning toward the physical side (base 67 Attack). Base 77 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many.
