As a Grass-type starter Pokemon from the Johto region, Chikorita holds a special place in the hearts of trainers and plays a significant role in completing the Blueberry Pokedex in the Indigo Disk DLC.

Locating Chikorita in the Coastal Biome

To encounter Chikorita in the Coastal Biome, trainers must first expand the Terarium Club by contributing 3000BP.

Once the Coastal Biome is expanded, Chikorita can be found roaming the grassy fields near the border separating the Polar and Savanna Biomes from the Coastal Biome.

Trainers can efficiently acquire BP by completing Blueberry Quests (BBQs) and focusing on Advanced Blueberry Quests for higher BP rewards.

Obtaining Chikorita without the Indigo Disk DLC

Trainers who do not have the Indigo Disk DLC can still obtain Chikorita through trading or transferring from Pokemon HOME.

By trading or transferring Chikorita, trainers can secure this Grass-type Pokemon without the need to contribute BP to the Terarium Club.

However, it's important to note that traded or transferred Chikorita may not bear the Trainer ID of the recipient, requiring additional steps if a personalized Chikorita is desired.

Transferring and Trading Strategies

Trainers can transfer Chikorita from Pokemon GO and Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl (BDSP) by following specific steps to complete the transfer process.

For trading, trainers can utilize wireless communications and the Poke Portal to form or join a group for Link Trades.

Evolving Chikorita and Bayleef into Meganium

Chikorita evolves into Bayleef at level 16, and Bayleef further evolves into Meganium at level 32.

Trainers can expedite the leveling process by using Exp. Candies or Rare Candy to reach the evolution milestones for Chikorita and Bayleef.
