Effect

Held item

Causes Feebas to evolve into Milotic when traded while holding it. This consumes the Prism Scale.

This item was introduced in Generation V due to the lack of a means to increase Beauty in these games. However, even in games in which the Prism Scale exists, a Feebas can still evolve if leveled up while its Beauty is high enough.
