Shroomish Guide

  • Get Shroomish to Breloom at level 23. At 295 BST, Shroomish is just the starting point.

  • In Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, Shroomish does the job early-game if you need a Grass type on your team. Evolve it into Breloom before the later gyms and it holds up fine through the story.

  • You can find Shroomish in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. The Locations section has the full breakdown of routes and encounter details. It also appears in 13 other games across the series.

Game Availability

Shroomish first appeared in Ruby & Sapphire and has been available in 14 games across 8 generations. Obtainable through catching or hatching as a base form in most titles where it appears.
