Looking for a rundown of all Legendary locations in the Indigo Disk DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet? You’re in the right place. Stick around for details about where you can find every returning Legendary Pokémon with the drop of the DLC.
The Indigo Disk DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet has reintroduced a seriously long list of classic Pokémon, including Legendaries from past generations. Whether you’re a fan of the Johto region’s Lugia and Ho-oh or Unova’s trio consisting of Terrakion, Cobalion, and Virizion, you can now add these powerful monsters to your Pokédex. What’s more, each can be found within Paldea’s borders. You’ll just need to recruit the assistance of an important NPC stationed at Blueberry Academy to get started on your search. Here’s where to find every returning Legendary Pokémon in The Indigo Disk.
How to Get Legendary Pokémon in The Indigo Disk DLC
Aside from Terapagos, you’ll also be able to find and catch Legendary Pokémon from past generations in the Indigo Disk DLC. That being said, they will only appear once you’ve completed the main story of the DLC. This occurs after you manage to catch Terapagos in the underdepths of Area Zero and mend your friendship with your new friend, Kieran.
After the credits roll, you’ll be informed that a special guest is waiting for you at the entrance of Blueberry Academy. There, you’ll meet Snacksworth. This NPC will tell you all about Legendary Pokémon and where they can be found, given you’ve completed enough BBQs (Blueberry Quests). With a solid amount of missions under your belt, he’ll hand over special snacks and hints to help you pinpoint the exact location of each Legendary monster.

Articuno Location
- Hint: See, I’d found this lovely pond up in the snowy peaks of Paldea and had decided to go for a dip, hankering for a bit of cold-water swimming… when would you believe it! Articuno comes swooping down along the nearby waterfall and starts flying about above me, singing away! I was tickled pink, I was. Went on merrily singing with Articuno even as the sun set and the moon rose. Before I knew it, it was morning again!
- Location: Articuno is found on Glaseado Mountain, just between Montenevera and the mountain’s fly point.
Zapdos Location
- Hint: I climbed right up to the tippy-top of one of those lighthouses you’ve got in Paldea, and I was taking in the view, looking over a distant city when… would you believe it! The heavens broke wide open, and rain started pouring down on me! I thought I’d better get out of that mess in a hurry, so I turned to head down again. Then the whole sky lit up like a huge crash of lightning, and Zapdos came flying outta nowhere! It blew right by me, quick as a flash!
- Location: Zapdos is found at the top of the Poco Path Lighthouse, located to the south of Los Platos.
Moltres Location
- Hint: I was off doing a spot of rock-climbing over in western Paldea at the time. The weather was sure something else that day! Sandstorms were kicking up the whole desert — my mouth was as sandy as the ground! I was about ready to call it quits when… Moltres appeared in a blaze of glory, so bright you could see it through the blowing sands! I don’t know if it meant to cheer me on, but it certainly did, and I completed my climb that day.
- Location: Moltres is located in the northern region of the Asado Desert on top of a rock formation. It can be found just north of the watchtower here.
Suicune Location
- Hint: See, I spotted Suicune once, while I was out enjoying that famous lake you’ve got in Paldea. We ended up having a little contest of skill, seeing which one of us could get all the way to shore fastest. We were off like a shot, but that Suicune — well, it runs right over the water, now don’t it? Me being just your everyday human, the best I could manage was a nice, solid backstroke. It was a fine race, though. Mighty fine. Even if that Suicune did end up beating me by a whisker.
- Location: Suicune is found on the westernmost island in Casseroya Lake.
Raikou Location
- Hint: Yes, there was a day when me and ol’ Raikou went racing up a mountain together. That Raikou — it’s no slouch, that’s for sure! Kept dashing past me and taking the lead. I was huffing and puffing and muttering some colorful things as I chased that wily Pokémon. But in the end, we were sitting side by side atop that peak, gazing out upon the massive and majestic desert that covers the land to the north.
- Location: Raikou is found just north of a circular pond in West Province (Area One).
Entei Location
- Hint: Would you believe it — I simply ran smack dab into Entei while out adventuring in Paldea! You know that stretch that’s dotted with mines, and everywhere you look, there’s another hole? Well, ther was Entei, popping through those caves like it was having a grand ol’ time! I don’t like to be outshone, so I did my best to keep up with the feller. Whoo-ee, what a chase! We ended up all the way at the coast, side by side as we gazed out over the endless blue.
- Location: Entei is located to the northeast of Levincia on a rocky cliffside overlooking the coast.
Lugia Location
- Hint: I was paddling in the sea off Paldea, enjoying a leisurely backstroke through those crystal waters. But it was a real frigid stretch of sea, you understand. Didn’t take long in that water before I’d started to lose all the warmth in my body! I was shaking like a leaf by the time I found an island and crawled ashore. What should appear before me but a great whirlpool heaving in the sea, and — bwoosh! Out of it comes Lugia itself! I was knocked flat on my backside in the shock of it all, so delighted I forgot I was even cold!
- Location: Lugia is located in the eastern region of the North Paldean Sea, just by a small island.
Ho-oh Location
- Hint: Now this is a real old tale, from those long ago days when I’d just started out as a Trainer… I was down in the southwest of Paldea, near the cascading waterfalls down there. I’d been up through the night, training without rest to try to make my Pokémon stronger. Then Ho-oh appears in the sky above me, glittering and sparkling bright as you ever saw! I’d sure like to believe that it appeared there to cheer me on when I was trying so hard.
- Location: Ho-oh is found on a cliff overlooking the sea in West Province (Area Four).
Groudon Location
- Hint: I did spy ol’ Groudon once, back in the days when I was adventuring around Paldea. You know the huge cave system under that one town? I can never remember the name… Anyway, the name don’t matter, except to say that that’s the place where I saw that feller! I thought to myself, “Well, if that ain’t Groudon!” And I gave a big wave of my arms to say hello. When else are you supposed to do when faced with the Continent Pokémon, I ask you? So anyway, I did that. And then it showed me its huge, fearsome claws, that it did.
- Location: Groudon is found inside the Alfornada Cavern, located beneath the town of Alfornada.
Kyogre Location
- Hint: I was on another one of my adventure around Paldea when I spotted these odd rocks in the sea. I thought to myself, “Now, Snacksworth, those’ve got to be those famous rocks said to bring riches!” So I figured I might as well squeeze my eyes shut real tight and make a wish on ’em. After a few seconds, I opened my eyes, and what should appear in front of those rocks but Kyogre! Just big and blue and brazen as you please! Now that was a shocking day, make no mistake!
- Location: Kyogre is found in the western region of the North Paldean Sea, just north of the Gracia Stones landmark.
Rayquaza Location
- Hint: I was doing a bit of mountain-climbing — hauling myself up some mighty steep Paldean cliffs. When I made it up to the top — now that was the kind of sight a man lives for! I looked down over the edge into a sea of white mist, unbroke as far as the eye could see! There was something truly mystical about it all. And what came bursting right outta that dense fog but ol’ Rayquaza, like a cork outta a bottle! I nearly fell back down the mountain in shock!
- Location: Rayquaza is located on the outer wall of the Great Crater of Paldea, north of South Province (Area Three).
Latias Location
- Hint: I was off enjoying a spot of backstroke in the sea to the south of Paldea at the time. I’d been going on for a good while, so I’d come to feel a bit tuckered out and in need of a rest. Came ashore to rest on the sand in the shadow of some cliffs… when — you won’t even believe it — there’s Latias! Just right there before me! Our eyes met, and it gave me a jolly little smile. Then it flew off again out of sight.
- Location: Latias is located on the shoreline in South Province (Area Four), just south of the watchtower here.
Latios Location
- Hint: One day I ran smack dab into it, brazen as you please, while I was up in northeast Paldea, see. We couldn’t speak each other’s language, but I got the feeling it was telling me to follow it. So I gave chase when Latios flew off, and I ended up climbing these mighty steep cliffs. Next time I looked up, I realized I’d come to a small lake, nestled in between some jagged cliffs. It was a secret spot, all right.
- Location: Latios is located on the southeast side of a lake in North Province (Area Two), southwest of the Fury Falls fly point.
Terrakion Location
- Hint: It was a regular day, and I was out doing a bit of my beloved rock-climbing, as I’m wont to. I’d made it up quite high. When I turned around for a breath, I could just make out Cortondo in the distance, off to the south. I was simply standing there, admiring that view… when next thing I knew, Terrakion had plonked down for a sit right beside me! Perhaps it was simply at loose ends? It sat with me for a time, and we ate some snacks together.
- Location: Terrakion is located in West Province (Area One) near the watchtower. The Dark Crew Base is close by.
Virizion Location
- Hint: I tell you no lies: I simply came across Virizion resting among the trees one day while I was on one of my adventures around Paldea! And what trees they were! All done up in these mysterious patterns like I’ve never seen. We stayed there a good while, me and Virizion, gazing at one another twixt those fanciful trees. But that ol’ Virizion, it didn’t run off. Just gave me this curious look, you know? So I sat there and told it about my adventures, and it listened with a kindly air the whole time.
- Location: Virizion is found in the northeast region of Tagtree Thicket in East Province (Area Three).
Cobalion Location
- Hint: I was on one of my adventures in Paldea when Cobalion just pranced on down from a cliff. I was real flummoxed at first when it stopped right before me. Maybe it was just pausing to stare because my face looked so funny? Anyway, that ol’ Cobalion started to stroll away, so I followed, and it led me to a famed waterfall. I tried to say thanks, but ol’ Cobalion just dashed off into the bamboo grove, cool as you please.
- Location: Cobalion is located just south of the Fury Falls fly point in North Province (Area Three).
Reshiram Location
- Hint: See, I saw Reshiram with my own eyes, out near a town that I’d passed through in Paldea. It was a town where a lot of hardworking folk live — the type that get their hands dirty. I’d climbed up to a nice height to look out upon all their hard work, carved into the landscape. I was just remarking to myself what a fine show of effort it was, when I seemed to feel a presence behind me. And when I turned — bam! There was Reshiram, right at my shoulder! I figured it must like good ol’-fashioned hard work, too.
- Location: Reshiram is located south of Zapapico on a cliffside overlooking the river.
Zekrom Location
- Hint: I’d set out for Mesagoza, thinking I would walk all the way out to Artazon from there. I was making fine progress, when this great black shadow streaks across the sky to the east. I was consumed with curiosity — that’s for sure — so I climbed real high to try to catch a better look… and wouldn’t you know it — there was Zekrom! I stared up at it like a country lad seeing his first city, and it came down to land right near me. We watched one another for a time. I couldn’t help but bask in how magnificent Zekrom is.
- Location: Zekrom is found on a large, rocky cliff south of Artazon.
Kyurem Location
- Hint: See, I was up climbing the snowy mountains when a terrible storm blew in, and I had no choice really but to hunker down in a cave underground. Don’t even rightly know if I should call that place a cave. It was all soaring heights and wide passages — befuddling as any labyrinth, too. I was having a grand time exploring its many nooks and crannies when this sheet of ice near me suddenly up and moved! I rubbed my eyes, not believing what I was seeing, once I realized — it was no ice sheet! It was Kyurem, right there in front of me! Who would believe it, right?
- Location: Kyurem can be found inside a cave system near Dalizapa Passage, south of Glaseado Mountain.
Solgaleo Location
- Hint: I’d gone to pay Paldea’s Pokémon League a little visit at that fine building they’ve got there. I was just admiring the structure from the outside when one of the staffers noticed me and invited me in for a better look. They took me up to the observation deck, all done up with that logo of theirs. I was looking toward the academy and enjoying the view when a shadow fell across us. I kid you not, young friend. It was Solgaleo itself! It was only there a moment before it dashed right off again in a flash, so I couldn’t even get a how-do-you-do. But it was magnificent!
- Location: Solgaleo appears on the Champion’s battlefield at the Pokémon League building.
Lunala Location
- Hint: I was on a fine sandy beach in Paldea, gazing out at the sun until it set into the sea. Looking at the sun really reminds you just how small you are as a person, you know? I was getting all sentimental as I watched the light slipping away. It hadn’t yet disappeared when suddenly this great crescent moon bloomed before my eyes! It was only there for an instant, so it was hard to get a good look. But I’m sure that silhouette belonged to Lunala, or my name’s not Snacksworth.
- Location: Lunala is located where the river meets the sea, just north of Porto Marinada.
Necrozma Location
- Hint: I was sitting in the stream of one of Paldea’s waterfalls, letting the pounding water cleanse my mind… when I looked up and saw Necrozma sat right above me, giving me the ugliest stare! I thought it’d be unwise of me not to stand my ground, so I squared up and roared as loud as the water! That had ol’ Necrozma off like a shot. And it wasn’t just Necrozma either! That shout of mine sent all the nearby Sawsbuck scattering, too, wouldn’t you know it! Hahahaha!
- Location: Necrozma can be found south of the large rock formation in the middle of Socarrat Trail.
Kubfu Location
- Hint: I was adventuring off in Paldea when I saw Kubfu training! I ambled right up to it and asked, “Ohoho, hard at work training, are you?” Why, the two of us got on like a house on fire! We trained together for a time, till Kubfu seemed to be itching to move on. But it left me a gift — it plucked up a haul of the bamboo sprouts that grew nearby, just for me.
- Location: Kubfu is found just south of the fly point for Fury Falls in North Province (Area Three).
Spectrier Location
- Hint: I was off hiking among Paldea’s peaks for a bit of fun, mountain-climbing being a bit of a hobby. I was taking my sweet time meandering up some mountain paths dotted sparsely with trees. I came upon this old ruin on the path, covered in vines, and I thought to myself, “Now, doesn’t that seem as good a place as any to take a rest?” I’d no sooner drawn close for a look than this black shadow of a Pokémon appeared! Spectrier’d been sleeping inside! It popped its long face out and scared the spirit outta me! It loves that snack you have there, so you might just have a shot at meeting it too!
- Location: Spectrier is located just north of the Great Crater of Paldea, in ruins near Dalizapa Passage.
Glastrier Location
- Hint: I was off hiking among Paldea’s peaks for a bit of fun, mountain-climbing being a bit of a hobby. I was trekking up and up those snowy hillsides, and I figured I must have been nearly to the summit when I came across some ruins. Perhaps they’d been a house once? The walls still looked sound enough that I could take shelter and have myself a little rest. I’d no sooner drawn close for a look than this Pokémon appeared, white as the driven snow! When it popped its long face out, the fright nearly froze my heart!
- Location: Glastrier is found in ruins on Glaseado Mountain, south of Glaseado Gym.
