Every Mythical & Legendary Pokemon (& How to Get Them)

When compared to most of their predecessors, there really weren’t too many Legendary Pokemon in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet at the time of their release. None of the series’ pre-existing Mythical and Legendary Pokemon could be caught at launch either, meaning that players were limited to just six Legendaries to begin with; two of which were version-exclusive Pokemon.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: Every New Pokemon (& Where to Find Them)

There are over 100 new Pokemon in Scarlet & Violet, though players won’t be able to get all of them without doing a bit of trading here and there.

For context, only the first two generations of Pokemon games had introduced fewer Mythical and Legendary Pokemon than Pokemon Scarlet & Violet did at launch. However, that’s all changed thanks to the Teal Mask and Indigo Disk expansions, with the Gen 9 games having now introduced more new Mythical and Legendary Pokemon than any previous generation.

Updated December 22, 2023, by Tom Bowen: Much like their eighth-generation counterparts, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet received two DLC expansions, both of which added a bunch of new Legendary Pokemon into the games. As such, those hoping to catch every Mythical and Legendary Pokemon in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet now have three times as many Pokemon to keep an eye out for as they did when the games first launched, making the process a lot more daunting than it first was. The good news is that several of the Gen 9 Legendary Pokemon are captured automatically as part of the main story, and the others are fairly easy to catch once players make it to the post-game.
