How to Get ALL 25 Legendary Pokemon in Indigo Disk

Please Note: The Co-Op quests do NOT require opposite versions. 4 Violet players can unlock all the Scarlet Exclusives

This has actually gotten me to go back to swsh and grind dynamax adventures, because I'm so sick of them shiny locking everything, and also miss raids that actually WORK. was claiming mystery gifts and since I was there, tried joining raids for dialga and palkia. In an hour I managed to get into exactly 3 raids, continuously trying to connect. And then once I got in, raid ejected us even though it showed half the timer remaining.I love raids but holy crap SV online raids are bad.

I NEVER go online for the raids now, and I only solo them (either wait for Austin to post a good mon or ask others). Everytime I go online something goes wrong with the raid.

@@Infindox yeah same. I only did because I didn't wanna roam around my map to see if there was dialga or palkia lol. Sounded easier to just go into the raid menu, and oh how very wrong I was.

[@Socioromanticism]

Dunno. I don't do online raids a lot, but I've never had any issues with online raids that I didn't have with solo raids. As for being shiny-locked, I don't really mind that so much. Guaranteed access to shinies make them less special, and it keeps previous games relevant.

[@SknowingWolf]

@@Socioromanticism hard disagree on that rhetoric. Nothing guaranteed if the player has to grind for it. I'd rather people's time and energy be respected. We paid for the whole game, and I don't like the idea of them gatekeeping certain parts of the game just to what? Hold then out for events or something which are ACTUALLY "guaranteed" shinies? Doesn't really track imo.

[@Socioromanticism]

@@SknowingWolf I chose my words carefully: Guaranteed _access_ to shiny legendaries. And I don't think that's a matter of semantics. If you grind for long enough, you can reasonably expect to get your shiny given enough work. Otherwise, folks wouldn't bother grinding in the first place. But in that instance where you have to grind, your time isn't respected either: Your time is respected in only two scenarios: 1) where a Shiny is guaranteed (so you do the sequence once and get the shiny), and 2) where a legendary is shiny-locked (so you wouldn't bother spending time to grind). If you have to grind for it, your time isn't actually respected. What you're asking for (if you want a Shiny and for your time to be respected) given 1 in 4,096 (shiny charm odds don't apply to static encounters) ...is to just give you the shiny in a distribution. And if everyone gets the shiny in every game, it's not really special anymore. You'd accumulate 3 shiny of every legendary every decade, and even more more with multiple accounts on a Switch. So maybe you have multiple issues with shiny-locks, but those issues all cannot exist simultaneously by the logic I'm extracting from your comments. To respect your time AND to give you access to a Shiny, you'd either need 1) a guaranteed shiny or 2) drastically increased odds and a very short reroll process (perfunctorily guaranteed.) Both make shinies less rare. So are you asking to not have your time respected with access to grinding for a shiny? Or are you asking for a shiny legendary distribution for every legendary upon every generation? I don't think that's a false dichotomy. I do think you're asking for one of the two. But if it's the former, you're not asking for your time to be respected.

[@redfinale]

A fun little note for those that don't use Home. Many legendary pokemon have key items associated with them that you can't transfer over via Home despite being able to transfer the pokemon itself. If you get one of these pokemon, then a fourth auction opens up in the Porto Marinada Market. Of the 25 we get access to, Kubfu, Calyrex, and the BW trio unlock this. The auctions for Kubfu will net you the scrolls that determined its style in SwSh, this time becoming key items that act like evolution stones (you can get both scrolls but like in SwSh, you only have the choice of one form). Having Calyrex can get you the Reins of Unity, which can be used to fuse and unfuse it with the Spectrier and Glastrier. I believe it's having Kyurem that will unlock the DNA splicers item. Additionally, for those that maybe didn't move a Palkia or Dialga over from any version of DP or BDSP, or from PLA, then having either of the two of them also unlocks extra auctions, giving you the Adamant Orb (og hold item) and Crystal (PLA item for the origin forme) for Dialga and the Lustrous Orb and Globe for Palkia.

I'm assuming (since I didn't check before capturing) but I believe after capturing certain legendaries, the bidding market at Porto Marinada will have associated held and evolution/form items for the new legendaries. For example, the Water and Darkness scrolls for evolving Kubfu, the DNA Splicers for fusing Kyurem, and the fuse items for Necrosma. I also was able to purchase the hold booster for the Lats, and while not related to the new legendaries, I also could get hold items for Palkia and Dialga, along with the item for changing Dialga's form to the origin form from P:LA. I'm guessing I didn't get the Palkia form item since Palkia is Scarlet and I'm on Violet with Dialga. (EDIT: I messed up. I did get both transformation items, and misremembered due to how similar Palkia's transform and hold items are) Also, killing the legendaries isn't an issue as they respawn in about an hour.

So, those who don't have friends (like me) are screwed :) Well... at least I can get some of them

You can get all I have violet and my wife also and we gotten all

I completely forgot this existed when I was doing some shiny hunting so the jumpscare of seeing a random kyogre out of nowhere gave me a bigger reaction than most shinies

[@Anemyya]

Just hearing that most of these are version exclusives and I can't get them solo makes me not want to get them and just mark this game as completed...

[@LianaSunburster]

It's 8 months later but I just finished the DLC and found this out. I'm just gonna get a copy of Sword and that expansion pass, and get them there. So, so stupid.

[@Pichuslayer69]

Guess I am not getting half of the legendarys.😢

As a sword player. I’m hyped to get lugia kyogre and lunala in my games this gen.

[@aniahmiller5281]

Keep in mind: Kubfu has 2 evolutions; you can obtain both from the auction house in Porto Marinada (big building) the first scroll (scroll of darkness) can be used to evolve Kubfu into single strike style Urshifu and the second scroll (scroll of waters) can be used to evolve Kubfu into Rapid strike Urshifu (better option due to Unseen Fist ability allowing the Pokémon to let moves hit through shields like protect or detect) however Single strikes ability aka. Wicked blow allows Urshifu to land critical hits and ignore stat changes.

For Solgaleo, get a Pokémon with Flash Fire and give it ground-tera

PSA for 3:12 : if you have both copies of the game playing completely offline, there is still no way for you to get Rayquaza, Kyurem, or Necrozma

[@javiersaneiro6412]

Yes, you can do it playing completely offline if you own both games. But you also need 2 switch consoles. It is like trying to get Palafin all by yourself. Things that require union circle also requires two consoles.

aint no way we paid 35 bucks for the dlc and we still cant get these legendaries shiny, there are too many pokemon that are impossible to get shiny atm (also 35 bucks to be able to fly)

thank you austin John. Today i completed scarlet, with some help here and there from you!

I spaced out for a bit during the betterhelp section and I came back to “…and now you can’t afford a house. Meanwhile your grandfather got a summer job at the drive in theater and he bought a house and a brand new Cadillac. And sometimes when you think about that as a great grand picture sometimes the walls just start to close in on you a little” and was completely overwhelmed and confused 💀

[@Aqua-ij3xs]

Eh, what’s the point if you can’t shiny hunt them?

[@zwillscoopchannel9689]

What if this is someone’s first Pokemon game? Not everyone got every game like you

[@Aqua-ij3xs]

@@zwillscoopchannel9689 That’s fine for them, but I can only speak my opinion from my own position. I’ve caught all of these Pokemon 10 times over at this point, doing it again just doesn’t hold my interest.

[@dalaxdercrisper957]

It's not really big deal of it. So what if they're shiny locked? Keep in mind whether it's regular or shiny, the stats are pretty much the same. It's just for purely cosmetic nothing more

[@shatteredsentient5321]

​@dalaxdercrisper957 People want the shiny. It's not hard to understand.

[@Me-jx1mo]

So even if you have both versions you still locked out of 3 of them and is forced to co-op play again, just like evolving finezin. Great. I hate it thanks GF.

I wish they could be shiny hunted, but of course, just more disappointment. They really hate their players having fun.

[@Going4Broke2528]

I honestly wouldn't even bother. You can't shiny hunt them, and their IVs are awful. I'll be honest and say that the way they implemented this was really poorly done.

[@AEonLuxray]

Solgaleo just chillin at the Pokemon league, waiting for a real opponent

[@holymanbob9491]

So they pay wall over half of the legendries behind the crappy nintendo online subscription?? Even the ones you can get solo the game pushes you to go online with the crazy grind. So lazy and greedy, was expecting something similar to the Dynamax Adventures we got in Crown Tundra not a 15-20 hour grind of the same BBQs over and over just to be able to access any of the post game content. Just the biodiversity upgrades and inviting the various trainers is around 25k points.

[@DanielGarcia-uz5sn]

In case anyone else is curious, you can get all the group quests done by yourself if you have two copies of the game, either version. I had bought the double pack but only bought the DLC for scarlet, and I had my other switch just join my main game on a union circle. Once joined I flew back to BB and did all the group quests, which I was able to do solo. Anytime it asked for group pictures or anything like that it only counted 1/1 maybe because the other profile didn’t have access to the dlc. It took me a few hours to get all of it done by myself, but it worked.

[@whiterabbit6341]

Thanks much! My friend has the game, but not the DLC. I'll be trying this.

I caught kyogre in a dive ball, and I came up with a strategy which is use encore before it can use aqua ring or you could use taunt either way it will prevent it from using aqua ring
