Pokemon Violet and Scarlet are full of new Pokemon in the Paldea region for players to discover and catch. One of those new Pokemon is Charcadet, a small red knight-like Pokemon that can be quite powerful. Charcadet can evolve into either Armarouge, a Fire/Psychic Pokemon, in Scarlet or into Creuledge, a Fire/Ghost Pokemon, in Violet. Regardless of which version you are playing, you will need to obtain a special item in order to evolve Charcadet.
Where to find Charcadet
Charcadet can be found in most of Paldea, although it is considered uncommon.
As for finding a Charcadet, the Pokedex entry lists its habitat as most of the southern half of Paldea. Personally, I found them easiest to find in South Providence Area Three, which is located directly to the East of Mesagoza. They can be difficult to spot due to their small stature, but the bright-red color makes them a bit easier to spot. You can also consume some food that boosts catching fire-type Pokemon to assist with this endeavor.
Evolving Charcadet
You will need to find a man in a plaid shirt in Zapapico.
In order to evolve Charcadet you must travel to Zapapico, which is located on the eastern half of Paldea in the central part. It is located west of the Lurking Steel Titan challenge area. Here, you must find a man in a plaid shirt who is looking to make a trade. In Scarlet you must trade 10 Bronzor Fragments for Auspicious Armor and in Violet you must trade 10 Sinistea Chips for Malicious armor.
