Pokemon BDSP Digging Spheres

Spheres are the most common treasure you can find when digging in the walls of the Grand Underground. They're available in different sizes, with larger spheres taking up more space in the digging interface.

Can You Grow Spheres?

It's no longer possible to bury spheres in the Grand Underground. In the previous games, you could bury spheres in the ground and it would grow into a larger sized sphere after a few days.

Additionally, it's also no longer possible to combine similar-sized spheres to make larger spheres like in the original Diamond and Pearl.

Exchange Spheres with Traders

To get larger, you need to exchange for them with Spheres Traders. For example, a Sphere Trader may ask for 50 Prism Sphere S for one Prism Sphere L.

Take note that the Sphere Trader's exchange rate changes everyday, so make sure to check back regularly to get the best deal out of your spheres!

Just saying something isn't true doesn't help anyone reading the article, maybe say what isn't true and share ur knowledge? Otherwise ur also wasting people's time.
