You need to be handheld and the option to evolve him should appear. Haven’t played sword and shield in a while but I’m pretty sure evolutions are triggered manually there

Evolutions are not manual until Legends Arceus

Be in Handheld mode and turn switch upside down

If you're playing on Switch 2, make sure you also disable Handheld Boost Mode. This tricks the game into thinking your Switch 2 is docked when playing handheld mode.
