Virizion • Generation VIII 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!

Where to Find Virizion in Sword & Shield

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

Special Ways to Get Virizion

After meeting Sonia in the Crown Tundra (DLC), she will task you with finding information on three Pokémon by tracking down their footprints. After finding 50 Grassland footprints in the Old Cemetery, Frostpoint Field, or Giant's Bed to reach 100% research completion, you can find Virizion in the Giant's Bed as a stationary encounter where you can fight it. (If it is knocked out or if you run away, it will NOT immediately respawn, but you can set up a Pokémon Camp and exit or reload your game and it will respawn in the same area.) (Only one can be caught per game save.)
