Among the most exciting features in Pokémon Legends: Arceus is the introduction of Hisui variants for established Pokémon species.
Prior to the game’s launch, players received a special preview of two new additions, Hisuian Zorua and Hisuian Zoroark. Through a mysterious promotional video that culminated in their official announcement, enthusiasts discovered the transformed appearance of these beloved creatures and their remarkable type combinations.
These “Spiteful Fox Pokémon” now combine Normal and Ghost types, departing from the Dark-type classification of their standard forms.
For trainers wanting to add Hisuian Zorua to their team, understanding its evolution into the stronger Hisuian Zoroark is essential. The good news is that this transformation process is straightforward and requires minimal effort once you’ve progressed far enough to locate and obtain Hisuian Zorua in the Hisui region.
How to evolve Hisuian Zorua

Transforming Hisuian Zorua into Hisuian Zoroark is straightforward and requires minimal time commitment. The evolution occurs automatically when Hisuian Zorua reaches level 30.
Similar to many other Pokémon species, Hisuian Zorua evolves through basic level progression. Since this Pokémon typically becomes available later in the game, you’ll likely only need to gain a few levels before triggering its evolution.
Players can encounter fully evolved Hisuian Zoroark in the same areas where Hisuian Zorua appears. If you prefer, you can bypass the evolution process and capture Hisuian Zoroark directly.
