Pokémon Violet and Pokémon Scarlet are quite dense games: with two versions, 400 Pokémon, and an open world, it’s natural for players to have questions. We’ve compiled this list of the most pressing topics aspiring Pokémon masters wanted to know before getting started, and things they need to know about Pokémon Violet and Scarlet, even as they head off on their adventures.
What are the version differences and the exclusives?
Similar to previous Pokemon entries, both Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet feature version-exclusive Pokemon to encourage trading between players. There are many more besides the legendary Koraidon and Miraidon boxes, plus a handful of other differences. For example, the outfits available in Scarlet are orange and the outfits in Violet are purple, and the two professors you meet are different. There are also some more differences!
What are the initial evolutions of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet?
We all found out about the starter Pokemon Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly pretty early on, but you may need more information than just their cute designs to make a final decision, such as their evolutions and final stats.
What about all the other new Pokemon?
There are 107 new Pokémon (if you count all the new forms), and people were curious about many things related to them.
What should I do first and in what order should I do the missions and gyms?
After the first day of school prologue quest, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet really open up and let you go anywhere. Not surprisingly, players sought guidance. Pokémon Scarlet and Violet let you go anywhere, and while that’s an exciting idea, Paldea’s design doesn’t make it clear which places are best tackled first. We can help you with that.
Tip: You can ask Nurse Joy what you should do next at any Pokemon Center, but she will recommend tasks based on proximity and then level, so she can recommend something that might be well above your level.
How do I change my school uniform?
Well, you’re stuck in a school uniform, but there are a few school uniform styles to choose from and accessories to purchase to accessorize it! In a nutshell, you’ll need to hit the left directional button to bring up the outfit customization menu. From there, you can change the style of your uniform.
How do I get Shiny Pokemon?
Super rare alternate color Pokémon are called “Shiny Pokémon”. There’s nothing different about them besides the different coat of paint, the glow when they go into battle, and the special mark on their summary page. They can look pretty cool though, and you can increase your chances of finding them!
Pokemon Violet and Scarlet’s picnic system offers a great way to increase your chances of finding a Shiny, plus there’s an item called the Shiny Charm that passively increases your chances at all times, but you need to complete your Pokedex to get it! Shiny Charm also makes it easier to hatch Shiny Pokemon when breeding Pokemon. There are even more methods and tips in the complete guide.
I want to cheat, what are the exam answers?
We will not say: we have all the answers for all the midterms and exams in Pokémon Violet and Scarlet. And if you didn’t know, you can go back to the academy to take more classes and learn some clever facts and earn cool rewards.
What are those ominous black stakes and where do I find them all?
Here’s a hint: if you finish your history classes and pass the final history exam, the teacher will give you a clue about its origins. If you want to skip all of that, of course you can, but know that you won’t be able to collect them all until Koraidon or Miraidon have unlocked most of their abilities.
How do I get more sandwich recipes?
Most of the sandwich recipes are learned by talking to the guy to the right of the counter at the Every Wich Way chain of sandwich shops. Visit it after earning Gym Badges to get more. Your mom and some hikers will also give you sandwich recipes.
What are these Gimmighoul chests?
You’ll find both Roaming Gimmighoul and Chest-shaped Gimmighoul all over Paldea. Catch one of the chest shapes and collect the coins from any (and other sources) to evolve one!
Late Game Questions and Guides
If you are just beginning your journey, we recommend that you do not continue beyond this point. Below are guides for later game events and Pokémon.
What is the secret menu item for the normal gymnastics test?
In Medali, you’ll need to take the normal-type gymnastics test, which requires you to find out and order a secret menu item. You can order the item before following the steps to collect the clues!
We won’t include the menu items here for spoiler reasons, but you can find the solution along with battle tips in our guide.
Where the heck is the Titan Dragon Pokémon?
Sure, the False Dragon Titan is marked on your map in Casseroya Lake, but getting it to appear is tricky! An NPC will give you a hint by asking something like “it would be great if the titan said his name”.
How do I unlock 6 star Tera raids?
Tera Raid battles are available from the start, but more difficult raids with better rewards can be unlocked. First, you need to complete all of the post game story content and challenges. Doing this is required and makes 5-star raids more common. Once you’ve defeated 15 of the 5-star Tera Raids, you can finally take on challenging 6-star Raids. Doing this is also necessary for ultra-difficult 7-star Tera Raid Battle events like Charizard and the upcoming Cinderace to appear in your own game.
There’s an almost endless amount of topics to cover and questions to answer, and if those didn’t answer all of your questions, you’re sure to find what you’re looking for in the Pokemon Violet and Pokemon Scarlet Wiki Guide. !
