This is a guide for obtaining Dusk Form 
Lycanroc in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet.
What is Dusk Form Lycanroc?¶
Dusk Form Lycanroc is a rare, third form of Lycanroc.
Lycanroc is a Rock type Pokémon that has three unique forms. You can catch the Midday form or evolve 
Rockruff into it during the day. Meanwhile, you can catch the Midnight form or evolve Rockruff into it during the night. Besides their different appearances, these forms have slightly different stats and moves.
Dusk Form exists roughly halfway between the two and is a lot rarer, because it was previously not found in the wild. The usual way to obtain it is to catch/obtain a Rockruff with the Own Tempo ability (it usually has Keen Eye or Vital Spirit) and evolve it during sunset.
Method 1: Catch in the Wild¶
(1 of 2) Dusk Form Lycanroc have bright orange fur, like the sunset.

In Scarlet & Violet, you can actually encounter Dusk Form Lycanroc in the wild! It spawns at North Province Area One, during sunset. This is the brief window between day and night, when the sky is orange/purple in color.
Method 2: Evolve from Rockruff¶
(1 of 2) Search for a wild Rockruff with the Own Tempo ability.

Alternatively, you can catch Rockruff with the Own Tempo ability in the wild. We recommend searching in West Province Area One. To quickly check if Rockruff has Own Tempo, you could lead with a Pokémon with Intimidate. If the Rockruff has Own Tempo, it will cancel out Intimidate.
(1 of 4) Wait till sunset, then find a way to Level Up Rockruff.
Once you’ve caught a Rockruff with Own Tempo, you need it to level it up to Level 25 during sunset to make it evolve. Again, it’s the brief window between day and night, when the sky is orange/purple in color.
The benefit of this method is that you can try and catch Rockruff during any time of day.
