How to evolve Dusclops in Pokémon Legends: Arceus?

Dusknoir is a high tank Pokémon with substantial stats on both Sp. Def and Defense. If you're investing Grit Items on it, prioritize these two and their HP. Dusknoir has a good Attack stat as well. However, since most Ghost moves, like Shadow Ball and Hex, are Sp. Atk based, it actually makes a poor Ghost Pokémon.

Still, there's a way to use Dusknoir in battle—just have Zisu teach it at least two punch moves (Fire, Ice, and Thunder) and two more physical ones, like Giga Impact. You can also let it keep Leech Life for long Alpha encounters. As a Ghost-type, it doesn't have a lot of weaknesses.
