    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.

    Once the other player receives it, Boldore will evolve to Gigalith.

    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]

  • Question
    Where can I find a union room in Pokemon Ultra Sun and Moon?

    Community Answer
    There are no union rooms in Pokemon Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon. Go to festival plaza and press trade. Three options will come up. Link trade, gts, and wonder trade. If you don't want to do these, go to your menu, (press X) and find quick link. Quick link lets you find a person with a copy of Pokemon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, or Ultra Moon and lets you trade or battle them.
