The Pokemon Company provided details on a few of the mechanics arriving in The Indigo Disk. Trainers can encounter Legendary Pokemon in the DLC as follows:

  • Find Snacksworth at Blueberry Academy, a curious new NPC.
  • As players complete Blueberry Quests (BBQs), Snacksworth will provide them with snacks.
  • These snacks will let trainers encounter specific Legendary Pokemon in Paldea.

According to the press release, Snacksworth has a plethora of knowledge about the Legendary Pokemon and will tell "tall tales of his own heroic encounters with them."


Are Shiny Legendary Pokemon available in The Indigo Disk?

There has been no official confirmation regarding whether Legendary Pokemon can be shiny in the upcoming DLC.

Going by the recent leaks (by @CentroLeaks on X), the returning Legendaries will not be Shiny Locked, meaning trainers will be able to encounter the unique variant of these beasts. Interestingly, this means that Kubfu, Glastrier, and Spectrier will no longer be Shiny Locked, provided the leaks come true.

We will have to wait till the dev team provides more information or the DLC launches.


We will update this article as and when more information is available. Meanwhile, check out our other Pokemon Scarlet and Violet coverage:
