How to Get Spiritomb in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl

In the original Generation 4 games, Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, Spiritomb’s unique type combination made it so it possessed no weakness (when Fairy types weren’t a thing). It was also the first Pokemon Cynthia sends out in her Champion battle.

And since Cynthia is objectively the coolest Pokemon Champion in existence, it also makes Spiritomb very cool by extension. So we wouldn’t be surprised if you want to find out how to get Spiritomb in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

Lucky for you, we’ve got you covered! Read on below!

How to Encounter a Spiritomb in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl

The first requirement to catch a Spiritomb of your own is to get the Odd Keystone item in your possession. Don’t worry, there are a bunch of ways you can get an Odd Keystone; they are as follows:

  • Twinleaf Town, hidden in its pond.
  • NPC beside Honey Tree on Route 208.
  • Mining in the Grand Underground.

Voila! You have your very own Odd Keystone! So now what?

Well, now comes the slightly tedious part. First, you need to make your way to Route 209, to the Hallowed Tower. Place the Odd Keystone in the Hallowed Tower and speak with it. At this point, Spiritomb will not appear, and you will have to make a slight detour before being able to encounter it.

Now head to the Grand Underground. Here, you must interact with 32 different NPCs. These NPCs must strictly be Trainers. Once you’ve done this, you can head back to the Hallowed Tower.

Speak to the Hallowed Tower to encounter Spritomb! It will be at level 25, so make sure you bring along low-leveled Pokemon to weaken it without knocking it out if you plan on capturing it.

And that’s all you need to know on how to get Spiritomb in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl!
