Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: The Indigo Disk has a whopping 26 Legendary Pokémon available to catch in-game. This includes 25 Legendaries from previous generations and Terapagos, a brand-new Pokémon.
This guide covers the location of every Legendary Pokémon in The Indigo Disk and how to catch them with snacks.
How to Catch Legendary Pokémon in Pokémon SV: The Indigo Disk
You must beat The Indigo Disk’s main story before you can catch and encounter any Legendary Pokémon. You can, however, transfer them from Pokémon Home into Scarlet/Violet if you already own any.
Once you’ve beaten the DLC and blessed your ears with the Ed Sheeran x Toby Fox remix, you’ll wake up in Blueberry Academy. Make your way to the Entrance and talk to Snacksworth.
For every ten Solo Blueberry Quests (BBQs) or one Group BBQ completed, he’ll hand you a Treat for a random Legendary Pokémon. Some Pokémon Treats can only be obtained through Solo Quests, while others require a Group Quest completion, depending on if you have Scarlet or Violet.
Once you have the Treat for the Legendary Pokémon you want — for example, a Latios Treat — you can visit the location Snacksworth mentions and catch them. Sorry fellow shiny hunters, all Legendary Pokémon in The Indigo Disk are shiny locked.
Every Legendary Pokémon in The Indigo Disk
Due to being listed in their own category, the list below doesn’t include the new Paradox Pokémon based on past Legendary Pokémon.
Below, you can find a list of every catchable Legendary Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: The Indigo Disk. Other than Terapagos, which is caught during the story, every Legendary Pokémon is obtained through Snacksworth’s Treats.
