Munchlax evolution overview
One of the cutest Pokémon ever was brought to us by Sinnoh, yet most people focus on Snorlax, Munchlax's evolution. To be honest, we can see why, considering the Kanto native's great output of damage and defence. So, in the event that your squad needs a tank, let us to explain how to develop Munchlax.
Not to put too fine point on it, but Snorlax is a formidable normal Pokémon that may really test you, therefore it's imperative that you understand what the normal Pokémon weakness is. If you want a strong counter to Snorlax, we also recommend that you learn how to evolve Riolu instead. Alternatively, our tutorials on Scyther evolution, Cetoddle evolution, Girafarig evolution, and Salandit evolution are worth reading if you want to complete your Pokédex.
All right, let's examine the essential information about Munchlax's evolutionary history.
Where am I going to find Munchlax?
Let's get started and find out where to capture a Munchlax as you need it to develop. If Munchlax isn't seen until much later in your journey, you'll probably need to use a superior ball. However, if you meet one sooner rather than later, you could get away with simply using a regular pokéball.
On the Nintendo Switch, Munchlax may be found and captured in the following games and locations:- Sword and Shield – Munchlax is in Motostoke Riverbank, Bridge Field, and Stony Wilderness unless you have the Crown Tundra DLC, in which case Munchlax is also around Ballimere Lake
- Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl – you can find Munchlax in many routes (205, 206, 207, 208, 209, 210, 211, 212, 213, 214, 215, 218, 221, and 222), Fuego Ironworks, Valley Windworks, Eterna Forest, Floaroma Meadow, and the Grand Underground (Spacious Cave, Riverbank Cave, Grassland Cave, Whiteout Cave, Still-Water Cavern, and Sunlit Cavern)
- Legends: Arceus – Munchlax is in Obsidian Fieldlands (Deertrack Path) and Alabaster Icelands (Snowfall Hot Spring)

Munchlax, how can I evolve?
Munchlax requires time and effort to evolve. As you can see, even though the likes of Murkrow's evolution, Misdreavus' evolution, Gloom's evolution, Shellder's evolution, and Bisharp's evolution Munchlax, like Budew's evolution, Happiny's evolution, and Buneary's evolution, requires stones or items, so To develop, Munchlax, you must become more friends.If you wish to strengthen your relationship with Munchlax, we advise you to combat it. You may also play with it or let it go outside of its Pokéball. if the game you're playing gives you that choice.Where is Snorlax available?
You may, of course, choose to go on directly to the gen 1 Pokémon and ignore Munchlax. But Snorlax is a slumbering beast that is difficult to defeat, so arm yourself with great balls and maybe even ultra balls, depending on its level (particularly if you're pursuing its alpha counterpart in Pokémon Legends: Arceus).This is where you may discover Snorlax in the Nintendo Switch Pokémon games:- Let’s Go Pikachu and Let’s Go Eevee – Route 12, Route 16, and Cerulean Cave
