How to get Zorua in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet?

Zorua is a Sinister-type Pokémon that is available to capture in Paldea, mainly in the wild (although it can also be found randomly in 3-star difficulty Teraincursions).

These are the two zones and areas of the world where Zorua in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet appears:

  • Wooded
  • Area 3 (West)
  • Zorua’s primary biome is the forest and grass biome, so he can also be found in wild appearances of this type.

How to identify Zorua in camouflage?

The biggest problem with catching Zorua in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is that this little Fox Pokémon camouflages itself. It masquerades as other Pokémon with the naked eye. This is similar to what happens with Ditto. You will never know whether you are in front of a Zorua until you decide to enter a battle against it. Therefore, we have some tips to give you to identify where there is a Zorua around you when searching for them in the Forest and Area 3 (West). Keep these facts in mind:

  • Zorua is a passive Pokémon when it is camouflaged, so it will never want to attack you and will hardly move much.
  • It also doesn’t show exclamation and question marks when you pass too close to it.
  • Using targeting against Pokémon is very useful, as you will be able to see their name above them.
  • Check the minimap often when looking for Zorua because it may appear on it, indicating that you are close to a specimen.

How to get Zoroark in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet?

Zoroark in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is the direct evolution of Zorua. It is also a Sinister-type Pokémon that is available to capture in Paldea through various methods. The primary way to get it is by evolving Zorua when it reaches level 30.

However, Zoroark can also be captured in the wild.

Note that Zoroark’s primary biome is the forest biome, which can also be found in wild appearances of this type. Apart from that, there are no other conditions to find it, as it can appear anytime and in any weather. However, it is usually a bit rare to spot.

On the other hand, remember that Zoroark in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet can also be found randomly in 5-star difficulty Teraincursions.

That’s all you need to know! So now you know how to capture Zorua and Zoroark in your game.
