Evolve Magneton in Mt. Coronet

To let Magneton evolve, bring it inside Mt. Coronet and raise its level to evolve it into Magnezone.

Magneton needs a magnetic field in order for it to evolve. You can enter Mt. Coronet to achieve this and level it up to obtain its evolution!

Evolve Magneton with a Thunder Stone

Instead of leveling up Magneton in Mt. Coronet, you can also make it evolve by using a Thunder Stone on it.

Use the Thunder Stone from your bag and select Magneton in your party to make it evolve!

Magneton Location

Available Via Evolution Only

Magneton has only been confirmed to be available by evolving Magnemite.
