How to catch Stunky in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Finding Stunky is very straightforward, as they can be found in two main areas of Paldea and tend to appear quite frequently. You can find Stunky in both the South Province (Area Five) and West Province (Area Two), and they should be easy to spot thanks to their signature sizeable fluffy tail and colors. We found a good number of this Pokémon in West Province (Area Two) at around level 27, and we recommend you try out this area first when looking to catch Stunky.

If you want to add one of these Pokémon for your team or are on your way to filling the Pokédex, we recommend you use a Pokémon with the bug, dark, fairy, fighting, grass, ground, ghost, psychic, and poison types, as these are resistant to Stunky’s poison and dark type moves. The only move type that is super effective against Stunky is ground, so you’ll want to have your Pokémon know at least one damage move of this type to deal more damage, but be cautious not to knock them out before you have a chance to catch them.

Stunky can evolve into Skuntank at level 34, and it is possible to find Skuntank in the Paldea region. However, they are a rarer sight, so we suggest finding yourself a Stunky and leveling them up. We should inform you, Stunky is exclusive to Pokémon Scarlet, meaning players of Pokémon Violet will not be able to find them in their game and will need to trade with some who owns Pokémon Scarlet.
