Pokémon: Sword & Shield

Overview

You’ll find West Lake Axewell on the western side of the south Wild Area however it’s best to ignore this area until much later in your adventure. The reason for this is there are a lot of Pokémon to catch or Dens to discover in the water and you’ll need to wait until after [Circhester] to gain the ability to travel on it. The lake itself is split in the middle with a stretch of land heading from the Meeting Spot to Motostoke and everything on the western side of the lake is considered for this Zone. Four Pokémon Dens can be found on land but there are a further two located in the water itself.
