The Oval Stone is an item that allows Happiny to evolve into Chansey in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

If Happiny is holding the Oval Stone, when it levels up during the daytime, it will start to evolve into Chansey. That makes finding the Oval Stone a priority for some Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl players.

The Lost Tower is located in the northern part of Route 209. You can make your way to Solaceon town and head south to reach the location. Inside you will find plenty of trainers to battle, as well as the ability to receive the Strength HM.

Prior to reaching the top and getting that HM, however, you can find an Oval Stone. Enter the Lost Tower in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl then head to the 2nd Floor. The Oval Stone sits in the middle of the room.

It is quite convenient that an Oval Stone can be found on a wild Happiny. The only way to catch this Pokemon in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl is as a Daily Pokemon in the Trophy Garden.

If Happiny happens to be one of the daily creatures, hunt for it in the tall grass behind the Pokemon Mansion. Every wild one you catch has a 50% chance of holding an Oval Stone upon capture.


Grand Underground
