Graveler is a very common Pokemon in Pokemon Legends Arceus. Its first evolution, Geodude, appears early in the Obsidian Fieldlands around the Heights Camp. Geodude can be evolved as normal into Graveler at level 25.

If you'd rather catch a Graveler in the wild, there are plenty of places to do that too. You will encounter many of them in your travels. For a good place to catch multiple Graveler, head to the Coronet Highlands. From the Base Camp near where you battled the Noble Electrode, head south down the series of canyons. These are absolutely filled with Graveler, so take your pick!

In previous games, Graveler had to be traded to another player to become Golem. In Pokemon Legends Arceus this is no longer the case. Instead, you need to use a Linking Cord to evolve it. This item is clearly based on the classic link cable used to trade Pokemon back in the Gameboy era. Now it is an in-game item, and there are a few ways to get one. Firstly, you can buy one from Simona in Jubilife for Merit Points. Otherwise, you could be lucky and pick one up during a Pokemon Legends Arceus Space-Time Distortion.

A more definitive way to get a Linking Cord is to complete the request Getting To Know Ghosts. Speak to Ward in Jubilife Village, he is just beside the bridge in front of Galaxy Hall. He says his son is afraid of ghosts and asks that you bring him a completed Pokedex entry for Ghastly. Speak to him with research level 10 for Ghastly and he will reward you with a Linking Cord.

Use the Linking Cord while you have Graveler in your party and it will evolve in a Golem!
