Every mythical Pokemon in Scarlet & Violet and how to find them

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Indigo Disk DLC welcomed plenty of returning Pokemon, along with some new ones and even a Mythical creature. If you’re trying to complete your Pokedex, here are all the Mythical Pokemon in the game and how to find them.

Most Pokemon fans know that some Pokemon are rarer than others. Still, there’s a special place in the Pokedex for Mythical Pokemon, the type of Legendary creatures that usually require a special event.

Dating back to Mew in Pokemon Red and Blue, mythical Pokemon exist in every generation and every region, though the many different ways of acquiring them have changed over the years.

So, if you want to add the likes of Mew, Jirachi, or even Victini to your Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Pokedex, we’re here to tell you if, how, and then where, you can catch these rare creatures.

Every mythical you can catch in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

Game Freak/The Pokemon Company

Sadly, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet don’t allow you to catch many Legendary or Mythical Pokemon natively in the game. These Pokemon are occasionally distributed in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet mystery gift code events.

Elsewhere, if you own the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet The Indigo Disk DLC, you can work through the main storyline to unlock a total of 25 legendary Pokemon.

This includes the mythical Pokemon Meloetta, and you can learn how to catch Meloetta in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet here, alongside the newest addition, Pecharunt, a new creature added in the game’s epilogue.

With this, Meloetta is currently the single mythical Pokemon you can catch natively in Scarlet & Violet.

Every mythical you can transfer into Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

As of the release of the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Indigo Disk DLC, and the addition of more Pokemon, you can transfer the following Pokemon into Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.

We have included the Nintendo Switch games where you can natively catch these Pokemon where applicable. Otherwise, players may have to trade or wait for a new event featuring the mythical Pokemon.

Remember, whether you catch these mythical creatures in Pokemon Go, Pokemon Legends: Arceus, Pokemon Sword & Shield, or elsewhere, you need a subscription to Pokemon Home to transfer them into your game.

Only Pokemon Scarlet & Violet players can trade with Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.
