Sawk • Unova Pokédex

Scarlet/Violet support is in the works!

Thank you for your interest in having the Marriland Pokédex updated to support Pokémon Scarlet & Violet! This has been something that I've been wanting to update for awhile, and it is my current project to implement support for the new games and The Teal Mask DLC. Thank you for your patience as I work on this over the coming week or two!

Sawk's Detailed Stats

Below you'll find a more detailed table containing Sawk's calculated stats, which are the stats that you actually see displayed in game. These are affected by a variety of things, such as level, Effort Values (EVs), Individual Values (IVs), and Sawk's Nature.

By default, the stats you see in the table below show four different possibilities, all assuming Sawk is level 100: its stats with 0 EVs, 252+ (max) EVs, 0 IVs, and 31 (max) IVs. Nature is not shown by default, so its maximum is 10% higher than shown here, and minium 10% lower.

Where to Find Sawk

If you're looking for where to find Sawk, you'll find the various methods listed down below, along with any notes or special locations. This should help you figure out how to get Sawk in Pokémon Sword & Shield. (Currently this does not show most "strong" static encounters or Max Raid Battles.)
Exclusive to Pokémon Sword

Sawk is exclusive to Pokémon Sword, so if you are playing Pokémon Shield, you will need to trade with someone playing Pokémon Sword in order to obtain it for your Pokédex.

Special Ways to Get Sawk

In Pokémon Shield, you can trade a man south of one of the inn buildings in Circhester a Vanillish for a Sawk, which is not normally available in Shield.
