Bergmite Weakness
Bergmite is weak to Fire, Fighting, Rock, and Steel. Bergmite's physical bulk (base 85 Def) helps cushion physical weakness hits, but special attackers are the bigger threat.

Evolution
One evolution ahead. Bergmite grows into Avalugg through a straightforward two-stage chain. Plenty of partners for breeding via two egg groups. Eggs take an average time to hatch. Evolving adds up to 210 stat points total. View every chain in the Evolution Chart.
How to Evolve
Breeding
Breed Bergmite easily with 84 breeding partners from the Mineral and Monster egg groups.
Shiny Bergmite
Bergmite's shiny shifts its blue ice body to a slightly purple-tinted version. The chunk of ice with feet gets a barely perceptible lavender wash. In motion, you probably can't tell. It's a pre-evolution that nobody hunts on purpose, and the shiny doesn't change that.
Shiny Bergmite Odds & Hunting Methods
8 of 8 VerifiedHow do we research these odds?
We check every game where a shiny is possible, then rank each one by the best method available in that game, so the row at the top is the fastest route overall.
Odds marked verified are cross-checked against multiple independent sources before we publish them. Where a rate is not yet confirmed we mark the row pending rather than guess a number.
