Gurdurr is a Fighting-type Pokémon introduced in Generation 5 with the abilities Guts, Sheer Force, as well as the hidden ability Iron Fist. It evolves from Timburr at level 25, but the only way to evolve it to Conkeldurr, in all Pokémon main-series games, is by trading. To do make Gurdurr evolve, start with Step 1.

Open your Bag, then select "Pal Pad."
Choose "Register Friend Code."
Type in your friend's username, press "OK," then type in the code given by your friend.
2 Visit the Pokémon Center with Gurdurr. Head to the Center, then climb up to the second floor, where you will find the NPC for Wi-Fi. Make sure you have your Gurdurr with you and make sure that you have access to stable Wi-Fi before you try to connect. Advertisement
3 Meet with your friend. After connecting, you will see your character standing inside the Wi-Fi room. Head north, talk to the computer in the game, and choose "Trade." When your friend appears in your screen, the trade will start automatically.
