Similar to past games, you may only catch one of a particular Legendary Pokémon. After catching this Pokémon, you can encounter it again, but it will disappear after defeating it. Also, you may catch a Legendary and choose not to keep it–in this scenario, you can encounter and catch it again (useful for shiny-hunting).
Should you reach a Legendary Pokémon but either fail to defeat it or choose not to keep it, the scientist at the front will let you save a path to the Legendary, for future adventures. This will guarantee the Legendary at the end. Up to 3 paths can be saved. Peonia also offers random paths after each adventure, in exchange for 5 Dynite Ore.
Welcome to our comprehensive strategy guide for Pokémon: Sword and Shield, the latest entries in the Pokémon video game franchise. Our guide also incorporates all the DLC, including the Isle of Armor and brand new Crown Tundra DLC.
In Sword and Shield, you explore the Galar region, based on the United Kingdom, alongside rivals Hop, Bede and Marnie, with the aim to dethrone the Pokémon League Champion.
The games introduce several new features such as Dynamaxing and Gigantamaxing, functions that increase size and change forms of certain Pokémon; the Wild Area, a large open world with free camera movement; and raids with co-op battling. They also reintroduce features previously seen in Sun and Moon and Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s Go, Eevee!, such as regional variants and roaming Pokémon depicted in the overworld.
