How To Get Umbreon In Pokemon Sword?

These are the steps that are required to be followed in the game Pokemon Sword if you really want to get Umbreon for yourself. 

1. First, you will have to travel to the Hammerlock Hills and go through the Giant’s Cap in the southwest direction. 

2. You will finally reach the banks of the Outrage lake where you have to ride the upgraded Rotom Bike to cross the lake. 

3. Then, as you reach the standing stone area which is at the top of Hammerlock Hill, you will have to wait for an Umbreon to show up so you can catch it. 

4. As soon as you find one, run to it for the encounter and carefully battle it so its health gets low. You can throw a quick ball for this. To make it easier to catch Umbreon, give it a Sleep or Paralysis and get it. 

As soon as the health of the Umbreon gets low, you have to throw your Pokeball at it and capture it. In case you miss it, try again unless you get it to your Pokedex. 

Remember that the top-of-the-hill area must be having a Sandstorm when you go there to catch Umbreon, only then you will be able to find any, or none will show up. 

Another point that you need to strongly keep in mind is that you will first have to obtain the upgraded version of Rotom Bike because only then you will be able to travel through the waters. At Route 5 you receive your Rotom Bike, which you can upgrade only after you have reached Route 9.
