Nincada will evolve into Ninjask when it reaches level 20. During its evolution, Shedinja can also be obtained if certain conditions are met.
Shedinja can be obtained while Nincada is evolving if you meet the following conditions.

---|---|
1 | You have a Poke Ball on your bag. |
2 | You have an extra space in your party. |
Shedinja will only occupy a regular Poke Ball and cannot use any other types of Poke Balls in your bag. Additionally, if you don't have an extra space in your party, you will not get a Shedinja after Nincada evolves into Ninjask.
