What evolves into Oinkolgne in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

Lechonk will evolve into Oinklogne in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. You will need to train and raise it to level 18 before it will evolve, though nothing else is required. However, what form of Oinkolgne it evolves into depends on the gender of your Lechonk. This will affect not only its form but also its stat spread.

The male Oinkolgne has a higher Attack, while the female Oinkolgne has a higher Special Attack and more HP. The difference in stats is fairly negligible, meaning both forms are viable. Ultimately you can choose what form of Oinkolgne you use based on appearance. Then you can simply choose a good nature to boost whatever stat you like.
