How To Evolve Rockruff In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet
No matter which form players choose in the long run, Rockruff is a fairly common Pokemon in the game. Searching the locations as seen in the Habitat map above, gamers will have an opportunity to claim a fair number of these small puppy Pokemon for this experiment. After a player has claimed one for their own, the next step is to level it up to 24, so it will evolve into their favorite form at level 25.
How To Get Midday Form Lycanroc in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet
Players looking to add this sleek wolf Pokemon to their team will need to keep an eye on the time in-game.

As long as Rockruff hits level 25 while the sun is out, Trainers will be able to claim this form.
How To Get Dusk Form Lycanroc In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet
For players looking to add Dusk form Lycanroc to their team, they’ll need to pay attention to the real-world time, rather than the time it is in-game. Players will need to hit level 25 with Rockruff between 7:00pm and 7:59pm Local Time in their game to unlock this special form.

Any time after the sun has gone down, players will be able to evolve into this Pokemon.
