Calling all Pokemon Scarlet and Violet trainers! Seeking the legendaries Virizion, Terrakion, and Cobalion? Look no further! Complete the Indigo Disk’s main story to meet Snackworth near Blueberry Academy. This helpful NPC unlocks the locations of all 25 returning Legendary Pokemon, including Virizion.
There are two paths:
- Finish “Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2,” then tackle Blueberry Quests (BBQs).
- Focus on BBQs early. This lets you meet Snackworth sooner and grab Key Items (like Virizion’s Treat) with location clues.
This guide details Virizion’s location (Indigo Disk) and how Treats function. By following these steps, you’ll be well on your way to adding these legendary Pokemon to your team!
Virizion location and unlock requirements
In a recent interview, Pokémon expert Alex Johnson explained the steps to locate Virizion in the Indigo Disk of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. ‘To find Virizion in the Paldea region, start by acquiring a Treat, which is necessary for the encounter,’ Alex shared. He advised players to head to the northeast side of Tagtree Thicket and engage in a battle with Virizion upon arrival. ‘Successfully defeating Virizion will allow you to add it to your Pokémon collection,’ Alex noted. Alex emphasized the importance of fulfilling the unlock requirement, which involves obtaining a Virizion snack. ‘Visit the specific location with the Key Item to initiate the encounter,’ he explained, adding that it’s necessary to complete numerous BBQs, an in-game activity, to be eligible. Regarding the acquisition order of Legendary Pocket Monsters, Alex mentioned, ‘It’s random. Before encountering Virizion in the Indigo Disk, you might come across other legendary Pokémon such as Lugia, Latias, or Zapdos.'”
To gather information and enhance your chances of finding Virizion, complete a minimum of ten solo BBQs. This activity will provide you with a clue from a non-playable character (NPC). If you’ve accomplished this task in the early game, encountering Legendary Pokemon becomes more accessible. However, locating them poses a challenge, requiring thorough exploration of the designated location area.
Furthermore, it’s crucial to pre-save the encounter. This precaution ensures that you don’t miss the opportunity to capture Virizion in the Indigo Disk. It’s important to note that Virizion is exclusive to Pokemon Violet. Therefore, players of Pokemon Scarlet must engage in trading to obtain this particular Pokemon.
Is Virizion in Indigo Disk Shiny Locked?
Yes, when it comes to Virizion in the Indigo Disk of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, it’s important to note that its shiny form is locked, and players can only obtain its regular form. This shiny lock applies to every Legendary Pokemon that requires a Treat in The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part Two.
As for the possibility of obtaining shiny forms in the future, Game Freak, the developer, might introduce events or Mystery Boxes that provide such opportunities. However, as of now, the only available option is to obtain the non-shiny forms of these Legendary Pokemon. Keep an eye out for future developments and events that may offer a chance to catch these Pokemon in their shiny variations. For more such posts please visit our Technology section.
