A new era for Pokemon GO is about to begin, as the critters from the Paldea region will be introduced in the game with a new event called "A Paldean Adventure". This event will kick-start on Tuesday, September 5, 2023, at 10 AM local time, and will end on Sunday, September 10, 2023, at 10 AM local time.

In this event, certain creatures from the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, like Lechonk and the regional starters from Paldea, will be introduced in Pokemon GO for the first time. Among these new arrivals will be Quaxly, the water-type starter of the Paldea region.

In this article, we will assess all the ways to get your hands on Quaxly along with both its Stage 1 and Stage 2 evolutions, Quaxwell and Quaquaval, respectively.

Quaxly will have a max CP of 1,215 at level 50. The critter will arrive with the following stats in-game:

  • Attack: 120
  • Defense: 86
  • Stamina: 146

You can add Quaxly to your collection using the following methods:

  • Wild encounters
  • Eggs
  • Field Research rewards

Wild encounters with Quaxly

Quaxly will be spawning in the wild from September 5, 2023. Thanks to the “A Paldean Adventure'' event, you can expect to see this Pokemon spawning fairly frequently in the wild.

Along with Quaxly, you will encounter the other two Paldean starters – Spirigatito and Fuecoco.


Eggs

Those who cannot find a Quaxly in the wild may hatch one from a 7 km egg during the A Paldean Adventure event. You can get 7 km eggs by opening gifts from your friends. To maximize your chances of getting a Quaxly, acquire multiple 7 km eggs, which will require sending a lot of gifts to your friends in Pokemon GO.


Field Research rewards

Completing Field Research tasks will also land you an encounter with Quaxly in Pokemon GO. Since it will have a floor IV of 10/10/10, your chances of getting this critter with perfect IVs will be higher here.

As of writing, the only way to get your hands on a Quaxwell is by evolving a Quaxly. Like all the other starter Pokemon in the game, Quaxly has two stages of evolution. Quaxwell marks its first-stage transition and will need 25 Quaxly Candies to obtain.

It will have a max CP of 2,007 at level 50, along with the following attributes:

  • Attack: 162
  • Defense: 123
  • Statistic: 172

Like the Stage 1 evolution, Quaxly’s second-stage form, Quaquaval, can only be obtained through evolution. You will need 100 Quaxly Candies to add this creature to your collection.

Quaquaval will have a max CP of 3,775 at level 50 and the following attributes:

  • Attack: 236
  • Defense: 198
  • Stamina: 198

Can Quaxly, Quaxwell, and Quaquaval be shiny in Pokemon GO?

Upon release, Quaxly’s shiny variant will not be available in the game. As a result, neither of its evolutions will have a shiny variant. However, this doesn't preclude any future shiny versions in the game. Once Quaxly has its Community Day, you can expect it to receive a shiny variant.
