Pokémon is a role-playing game in which your character must capture and evolve creatures known as "Pokémon," to progress. Boldore, a rock-type Pokémon with three legs and orange pointed rocks that protrude from its back and the tip of its legs. It was introduced in the Pokémon Black and White (Fifth Generation) games. Boldore can be identified due to its gray-purple rock body with three legs. Boldore evolves from Roggenrola at level 25. It evolves from Boldore to its final form, Gigalith.

1 Find a player to trade with. Unlike other Pokémon that evolve by leveling up or using stones, Boldore only evolves when it gets traded to other players. Find a player either in your local area or online that you can trade Pokémon with.
2 Go inside a Union Room. This is where you'll meet the player your trading with. Advertisement
3 Trade Boldore to the other player. Once the other player receives it, Boldore will evolve to Gigalith.
4 Begin another trading sequence. You will need to do this to get Gigalith back.
To shorten the process, you can look for a player who's willing to let go of a Boldore. Once you get their Boldore, it will evolve to Gigalith.[1]XResearch source
