All version exclusive Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

WARNING – This guide contains spoilers for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet!

As with every pair of Pokémon games, there will be some creatures you can only find in Pokémon Scarlet and some you can only find in Pokémon Violet throughout your adventure.

To complete your Paldea Region Pokédex you’ll either have to visit a friend’s copy of the other game via the Union Circle or get them through trading.

To help make the crucial decision on which game is right for you or which Pokémon to ask your friends to help you find, here’s a list of every version exclusive Pokémon in both games.
