likewise , players withPokémon Violetwill only be able to catch some ofThe Indigo Disk ’s Legendaries through gold - color Union Circle BBQs , with each quest grant access to a random Pokémon from the puddle of mostly Legendaries that would normally be sole toScarlet . However , for both interlingual rendition of the secret plan , there are three Legendary Pokémon that are n’t version sole but rather can only be caught through doing Union Circle quests in either version : Rayquaza , Kyurem , and Necrozma , each the " master " of their respective Legendary trios .

Each of the Pokémon that is only available through Union Circle BBQs in one version can be caught in the opposite version by doing offline , solo BBQs . Additionally , the Kanto Legendary bird trio of Articuno , Zapdos , and Moltres , as well as Kubfu fromSword and Shield’sIsle of ArmorDLC , can all be caught by simply doing solo BBQs in either variation .

The Pokémon are made available by Snacksworth in a random club , but once one has been chance and catch , it will be polish off from the kitty of available Legendaries . This means that catchingevery BBQ Legendary inThe Indigo Diskrequires 130 blue BBQs and 12 extra atomic number 79 Union Circle BBQs , since doing juicy and red BBQs is required to pull ahead access to gold BBQs , grinding exclusively in a Union Circle can zip up the process .

While many players are probable to already have many of the Legendary Pokémon that can be caught through BBQs , they serve as a adept ( but grindy ) way to receive past generation Legendaries that some players might have missed from previous entries . And , withThe Indigo Disk ’s infinite Master Ball trick , actually catch each Legendary can be super dim-witted . AsPokémon Scarlet and Violetstill has a morsel more content to come , admit a account epilogue , the game might receive some more past - generation Legendaries in the future .
