The latest Pokemon Scarlet & Violet expansion brings with it a slew of returning and new creatures, so find out which Pokemon appear as version exclusives with our guide.

That’s all the version exclusive Pokemon in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Indigo Disk DLC. We recommend catching multiple of these Pokemon so you can trade them over the GTS.
However in the case of the Legendary Pokemon, you may have to touch-trade with someone you trust, simply swapping them back and forth to fill out your Pokedex.
