SwSh Mode BDSP Mode

If you're looking for where to find Tangrowth, 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 Tangrowth in Pokémon Sword & Shield. (Currently this does not show most "strong" static encounters or Max Raid Battles.)

Special Ways to Get Tangrowth

Available in some Max Raid Dens on Isle of Armor (DLC).

Getting Tangrowth By Evolution

Location information on where to find Tangrowth in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl will be coming to the Marriland Pokédex in a future update! Thank you for your patience!

Pokédex Entries for Tangrowth

Generation 8 Pokédex Entries

Sword

Tangrowth has two arms that it can extend as it pleases. Recent research has shown that these arms are, in fact, bundles of vines.

Shield

Vine growth is accelerated for Tangrowth living in warm climates. If the vines grow long, Tangrowth shortens them by tearing parts of them off.

Generation 6 Pokédex Entries

X Omega Ruby

It ensnares prey by extending arms made of vines. Losing arms to predators does not trouble it.

Y Alpha Sapphire

Its vines grow so profusely that, in the warm season, you can't even see its eyes.

Generation 5 Pokédex Entries

Black White

Its arms are made of plants that bind themselves to things. They grow back right away if cut.

Black 2 White 2

Even if one of its arms is eaten, it's fine. The Pokémon regenerates quickly and will go right back to normal.

Generation 4 Pokédex Entries

Diamond Pearl

It ensnares prey by extending arms made of vines. Losing arms to predators does not trouble it.
