Where is the earliest place you can find a Dusk Stone in HGSS?

Question

Or do you need to be in Kanto/ post NatDex before you can get one?

Answer 1

You need to be in the first place in the bug catching contest

Bug-Catching Contest rewards

1st: Sun Stone (pre-National Pokédex)
1st: Random Evolutionary Stone (Fire Stone, Water Stone, Thunder Stone, Leaf Stone, Moon Stone, Sun Stone, Shiny Stone, Dusk Stone, Dawn Stone, Oval Stone) (post-National Pokédex)
2nd: Everstone
3rd: Sitrus Berry
4th: Shed Shell

Answer 2

I'm pretty sure you will need to trade a Pokemon from D/P/Pt with a Dusk stone into HG/SS.

Comments

Dusk Stone is available in HGSS, in the Pokeathlon  Dome I know for sure, but it's post NatDex. Why would they have Misdreavus and no Dusk Stone though, srsly.

I know right.

Answer 3

Earliest you can get one without connecting to another game is after getting the National Dex. You can trade one over from DPPt (where they’re available earlier), or if you connect your game to Battle Revolution for the Wii, you can redeem battle points on that game for items to transfer into DPPt or HGSS, such as the Dusk Stone, Dawn Stone, or Shiny Stone. It’s kind of a roundabout method, but it’s technically the best way to get it early…
