Pawniard is a tiny yet mighty Dark/Steel-type creature, but how do you get your hands on one in Pokemon Go?
Introduced in the Generation 5 games, Pawniard is a small but formidable opponent with steel blades on its torso. To evolve Pawniard, players of the mainline games must wait patiently until it hits level 52.
