Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players will need to do a bit of trading or multiplayer to get every Pokemon in the Paldea Pokedex. Like every main series Pokemon game (save for Pokemon Legends: Arceus, which was a standalone game), Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet have slightly different sets of Pokemon. Each game has about two dozen exclusive Pokemon, which includes some Pokemon from previous Pokemon games and a few unique Pokemon. Of course, the Mascot Legendary Pokemon Koraidon and Miraidon are also unique to their respective Pokemon games. Each game also has a unique set of “Paradox Pokemon” that can only be found late in the game when players investigate the mysterious Area Zero.
