How to Catch Titan Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Titan Pokémon are colossal versions of Pokémon found throughout the Paldea region in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Although they aren’t catchable during their boss fights in the Path of Legends storyline, players can go back to their original locations and catch these former Titans. Although they don’t keep their gigantic size, they do contain a unique feature.

Where to Catch Titan Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

To catch Titan Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, you need to visit their original locations after beating the game. They will appear like any other Pokémon of their species, however, they cannot be encountered like regular wild Pokémon. Instead, you will need to initiate a battle by talking to them using the A button.

Do Titan Pokémon Stay Their Size?

Titan Pokémon caught will act the same as any other Pokémon of their species, however, they will all bear a Titan Mark. Equipping the Titan Mark in the Memories section of the Pokémon’s summary will give them the title the Former Titan in battle. For example, Klawf the Former Titan.

Do Former Titan Pokémon Respawn?

If Former Titan Pokémon are beaten, they won’t respawn. So ensure you are ready to catch them beforehand. You can also save in front of them with Autosave turned off and restart your console if you do accidentally faint them.

Are Titan Pokémon Shiny Locked?

Unfortunately, Titan Pokémon are shiny-locked. Both in their original encounter and as Former Titans. This means that the Pokémon cannot appear in its shiny form.
