This is Scarlet’s box Legendary, so it makes sense that this Pokémon only appears in this game! It’s a Fighting/Dragon-type, by the way. If you’d rather have Ceruledge, you’ll need to play Pokémon Violet instead. Its baby form appears in both games, but it only evolves into Armarouge in Scarlet. Indeed, the especially frail but surprisingly fast Rock-type only appears in Scarlet! It packs a decent punch, but make sure it’s far away from special attackers. It’s wholly designed for doubles and nearly useless in singles. Let’s be real: if you’re just playing through the main story, the only reason you’re going to catch Oranguru is for Pokédex completion. They’re exclusive this time around too, so plan your teams accordingly! These Pokémon are Poison/Dragon-types, and they’ve been version exclusives since they first appeared in Generation VI.

Maybe you could trade a friend a Deino for an Iron Jugulis to help with Pokédex completion? Future Hydreigon only appears in Violet, but normal Hydreigon only appears in Scarlet. We’re not entirely sure why you’d want to use these, but in case you were planning on it, they can only be found and caught in Pokémon Scarlet. These balloon Pokémon hail from the Sinnoh region, and only appear in Scarlet. A robotic form of Tyranitar from the far future only appears in Violet, but for those wanting a normal Tyranitar on their teams, it only appears in Scarlet. These all look very similar to each other, so keep a close eye out! Paldean Tauros’ Fire-type form can only be caught in Scarlet.

Regardless, here’s what you can expect to see in Pokémon Scarlet: Let’s start off with normal Pokémon that can only be found in Pokémon Scarlet. For some reason, pseudo-Legendary Pokémon like Tyranitar and Hydreigon always seem to get themselves wrapped up in version exclusivity. Bookmark this page and come back later if you’re trying to avoid them! Just be careful - this post contains spoilers. As usual, there are several instances of Pok émon that can only be found in a single game, and some of them are quite important ones too! We’ve got a full list of exclusives right here. We don't know them all yet, but we do know a fair few Pokémon that will be part of the Scarlet and Violet Pokédex.Just when we thought Game Freak was on to something with Pok émon Legends: Arceus (a single standalone game), they announced Pok émon Scarlet and Violet - yet another dual release.
