How to Get Hisuian Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet

All the way from Hisui.

The amount of Pokémon is insane. Not only do unique Pokémon already are a considerable part of the total number, but also their numerous variants. And no, I’m not talking in MCU terms. They are called regional Pokémon, and they vary in appearance, type and abilities as well. And like the name says, all of this according to each region they belong to. You can find Alolan, Galarian and even Paldean forms of previously introduced Pokémon, mostly from Kanto region or Generation 1 onwards. The matter at hand today is to find out if we will have the ability to get Pokémon from the Hisui region (Sinnoh region equivalent), introduced in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Here is how to get Hisuian Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet.

How to Get Hisuian Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet

I got to be honest with you my friends, currently there is no way you are able to get Hisuian Pokémon or any other Pokémon from other regions in Scarlet and Violet. However, you don’t need to worry or to create a protest to fire me for misleading you. You will have the ability to bring several Pokémon from regions all around the Pokémon world in early 2023. That is when Pokémon Scarlet and Violet will be compatible with Pokémon HOME. This is a tool that not only lets you view Rankings, Competitions, Moves and Abilities of your Pokémon, transfer your Scarlet and Violet Pokémon and of course, bring a selection of Pokémon from past games, including the Hisuian Pokémon. And I’m not making this up, this is official news from the game’s official website. Be sure to check it out for more updates on the matter.
