Some Pokémon only show up in one game. Here's the whole list, where each one lives, and how to catch the other game's exclusives too, without buying a second copy ♡
The short version
Only have one game? You can still catch them all
Almost every exclusive comes with a twin in the other game. Scarlet leans ancient (Koraidon and the
old-timey Paradox Pokémon), Violet leans future (Miraidon and the Iron ones). Whichever game you've got, you can
still catch the other game's exclusives too. I'll show you how at the bottom ♡
Every pink button below is a request you can paste straight into my Twitch chat.
Paldea
The pseudo-legends
The big ones everyone fights over! These take a LONG time to raise, so grabbing a fully grown one from a raid saves you a whole lot of grinding ♡
Scarlet
Larvitar line
Where to look
Early on: West Province (Area One), Alfornada Cavern, East Province (Area One) Later: West Province (Area Three), Casseroya Lake, Glaseado Mountain
Tyranitar AND Salamence? Yes please ♡ They even live in the exact same rocky spots, so wherever Larvitar pops up in Scarlet, Bagon is sitting there instead in Violet.
Scarlet
Deino line
Where to look
Where: Casseroya Lake, Dalizapa Passage, Glaseado Mountain
Two dragons that take FOREVER to evolve. Dreepy turns up way earlier in your playthrough than Deino does, so Violet players get a head start on this one.
Paldea
Drifloon, Misdreavus, Stunky & Gulpin
Two little pairs you'll bump into early on, without even trying.
Scarlet
Drifloon line
Where to look
Early on: South Province (Area Three), West Province (Area One), South Province (Area Two) Later: Dalizapa Passage, Glaseado Mountain, South Province (Area Six)
In Tera Raids
Drifloon 2★ · Drifblim 4★ & 5★ (Paldea)
Violet
Misdreavus line
Where to look
Early on: South Province (Area Two), West Province (Area One), East Province (Area One) Later: Dalizapa Passage, Glaseado Mountain, South Province (Area Six)
In Tera Raids
Misdreavus 2★ · Mismagius 5★ (Paldea)
The ghosty pair! Drifblim just needs levels, but Misdreavus needs a Dusk Stone to become Mismagius.
Scarlet
Stunky line
Where to look
Early on: South Province (Area Five), South Paldean Sea, Asado Desert Later: Casseroya Lake, Socarrat Trail
In Tera Raids
Stunky 2★ · Skuntank 4★ (Paldea)
Violet
Gulpin line
Where to look
Early on: South Province (Area Three), East Province (Area One), South Province (Area Five) Later: Casseroya Lake, West Province (Area Two), Socarrat Trail
In Tera Raids
Gulpin 2★ · Swalot 4★ (Paldea)
The stinky pair ♡ Both evolve just by leveling up, nothing special needed.
Paldea
Everything else in Paldea
The rest of the base game splits. A couple of these are sneakier than they look!
Scarlet
Armarouge
Where to look
Early on: South Province (Area Three), West Province (Area One), Alfornada Cavern
In Tera Raids
Armarouge 5★ & 6★ (Paldea)
Violet
Ceruledge
Where to look
Early on: South Province (Area Three), West Province (Area One), Alfornada Cavern
In Tera Raids
Ceruledge 5★ & 6★ (Paldea)
Their pre-evolution, Charcadet, is in BOTH games. What's exclusive is the armor it needs: Auspicious Armor in Scarlet makes Armarouge, Malicious Armor in Violet makes Ceruledge.
Scarlet
Blaze Breed Tauros
Where to look
Early on: Asado Desert, West Province (Area Two), East Province (Area Three)
In Tera Raids
Blaze Breed Tauros 5★ & 6★ (Paldea)
Violet
Aqua Breed Tauros
Where to look
Early on: Asado Desert, West Province (Area Two), East Province (Area Three)
In Tera Raids
Aqua Breed Tauros 5★ & 6★ (Paldea)
Paldean Tauros comes in three breeds. The Fighting one is in both games, the Fire one is Scarlet only and the Water one is Violet only.
Scarlet
Skrelp line
Where to look
Where: East Paldean Sea, West Paldean Sea, Glaseado Mountain
In Tera Raids
Skrelp 2★ · Dragalge 5★ & 6★ (Paldea)
Violet
Clauncher line
Where to look
Early on: South Paldean Sea, East Province (Area Three), East Paldean Sea Later: Glaseado Mountain, South Province (Area Six), North Paldean Sea
In Tera Raids
Clauncher 2★ · Clawitzer 5★ & 6★ (Paldea)
Look near the water for these two. Clauncher shows up a lot earlier than Skrelp does.
Scarlet
Oranguru
Where to look
Early on: East Province (Area Three), Tagtree Thicket Later: North Province (Area Two), North Province (Area One)
In Tera Raids
Oranguru 3★ & 5★ (Paldea)
Violet
Passimian
Where to look
Early on: East Province (Area Three), Tagtree Thicket Later: North Province (Area Two), North Province (Area One)
In Tera Raids
Passimian 3★ & 5★ (Paldea)
Neither of these evolve, and they hang out in exactly the same places.
Scarlet
Stonjourner
Where to look
Early on: Asado Desert, West Province (Area One), West Province (Area Two)
In Tera Raids
Stonjourner 4★ (Paldea)
Violet
Eiscue
Where to look
Where: North Paldean Sea, Glaseado Mountain, North Province (Area Three)
In Tera Raids
Eiscue 4★ (Paldea)
Total opposites! Stonjourner hangs around the desert out west, Eiscue is up north in the snow.
The Teal Mask
Kitakami
You need The Teal Mask to catch these out in the wild. To catch one in MY raids though, you don't need the DLC at all ✨
Scarlet
Gligar line
Where to look
Early on: Wistful Fields, Mossfell Confluence, Paradise Barrens Later: Kitakami Wilds, Timeless Woods
In Tera Raids
Gligar 3★ · Gliscor 5★ & 6★ (Kitakami)
Violet
Aipom line
Where to look
Early on: Mossfell Confluence, Kitakami Hall, Reveler’s Road Later: Kitakami Wilds, Timeless Woods
In Tera Raids
Aipom 3★ · Ambipom 5★ & 6★ (Kitakami)
Gligar becomes Gliscor if it levels up at night holding a Razor Fang. Aipom becomes Ambipom once it levels up knowing Double Hit.
Scarlet
Cramorant
Where to look
Early on: Paradise Barrens, Oni Mountain, Fellhorn Gorge Later: Mossfell Confluence, Kitakami Wilds, Timeless Woods
In Tera Raids
Cramorant 4★ (Kitakami)
Violet
Morpeko
Where to look
Early on: Oni’s Maw, Apple Hills, Oni Mountain
In Tera Raids
Morpeko 4★ & 6★ (Kitakami)
Neither one evolves. Morpeko changes its face when it gets hungry though, which is adorable.
The Indigo Disk
Blueberry Academy
These live inside the Terarium, so you need The Indigo Disk for the wild ones. Same deal as Kitakami: no DLC needed to join my raids!
Both live in the Polar Biome and both evolve with an Ice Stone. Heads up: the regular Vulpix & Sandshrew are in Kitakami in BOTH games. Only the icy Alolan ones are split.
Scarlet
Cranidos line
Where to look
Where: Canyon Biome
In Tera Raids
Cranidos 3★ · Rampardos 4★ (Blueberry Academy)
Violet
Shieldon line
Where to look
Where: Canyon Biome
In Tera Raids
Shieldon 3★ · Bastiodon 4★ (Blueberry Academy)
They look like fossil Pokémon, but you don't need a fossil! Both just wander around the Canyon Biome.
Paradox Pokémon
Ancient & Future
This is the big one! Scarlet gets the ancient Paradox Pokémon and Violet gets the future
Iron ones. They roam Area Zero once you've finished the story, but you'll actually meet one way
before that: the Quaking Earth Titan in Asado Desert is Great Tusk in Scarlet and Iron Treads in Violet.
Scarlet
The ancient ones
Great Tusk
Scream Tail
Brute Bonnet
Flutter Mane
Slither Wing
Sandy Shocks
Roaring Moon
Violet
The future ones
Iron Treads
Iron Bundle
Iron Hands
Iron Jugulis
Iron Moth
Iron Thorns
Iron Valiant
The DLC Paradox Pokémon
Walking Wake (Scarlet) and
Iron Leaves (Violet) came out through special event raids.
Gouging Fire & Raging Bolt
(Scarlet) and Iron Boulder & Iron Crown (Violet) come from Perrin. Finish her quest in Kitakami first,
then fill up a big chunk of your Blueberry Pokédex and she'll hand you photos that make them show up in Area Zero.
There's only one of each per save file, so bring your best balls!
Can I request these?
Sadly no. Paradox Pokémon don't show up in regular
Tera Raids, so I can't host them. Trading or a friend's Union Circle is the way to get the other game's Paradox Pokémon ♡
Legendaries
Your ride & Snacksworth's treats
Koraidon is Scarlet's and Miraidon is Violet's. That's your ride, and
there's a second, battle-ready one waiting for you in Area Zero after the story too.
Once you've finished The Indigo Disk, Snacksworth turns up at Blueberry Academy and swaps
treats for clues to older legendaries. Playing solo you only get your own game's set. The other game's legendaries unlock
when you do Group Blueberry Quests with friends!
Kyurem and Necrozma can fuse with those legendaries, so the fused forms split the same way:
White Kyurem and Dusk Mane Necrozma are Scarlet's, Black Kyurem and
Dawn Wings Necrozma are Violet's.

specific form or gender, this is the cheat sheet ♡

Got the wrong game?
How to get the other game's exclusives
You do NOT need to buy the other game. Any of these work:
♡
Join a raid
When you join someone's raid you catch whatever THEY'RE hosting, even if it can't show up in your game. Every pink button on this page works on my stream, from either game!
♡
Union Circle
Hop into a friend's world. Anything you catch while you're there is from their game.
♡
Trade for it
Link Trade with a friend who has the other game, or try your luck with a Surprise Trade.
♡
Pokémon HOME
Already caught one in an older game? Send it over through HOME and it's yours in Scarlet or Violet too.
Quick questions
Still wondering?
Can I get Violet exclusives in Scarlet?
Yes! Join a raid that's hosted from Violet, catch it in a friend's Union Circle, or trade for it. It works the other way round too ♡
Do I need the DLC for the DLC exclusives?
To catch them out in the wild, yes, you have to be in Kitakami or Blueberry Academy. To catch them in one of my raids, nope! You can join any of my raids without the DLC.
Are Paradox Pokémon version exclusive?
Yes. The ancient ones are Scarlet and the Iron ones are Violet, and that goes for the DLC ones too.
Is Charcadet version exclusive?
No, Charcadet is in both games. Its evolutions are the split: Armarouge needs Scarlet's armor and Ceruledge needs Violet's.
Which game has Dragapult and which has Tyranitar?
Dragapult and Salamence are Violet. Tyranitar and Hydreigon are Scarlet. You can catch all four in my raids though, from either game ♡
Can I request version exclusives on your stream?
Most of them! Anything with a pink request button on this page works from either game. Paste it in my Twitch chat while I'm live and I'll host it from the game that has it.
Missing the other game's exclusives? Raid with me ♡Request almost any exclusive in my Twitch chat & catch it from either game. Free, always!
