How to catch Raikou in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk

This guide will show you how to get Raikou in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Indigo Disk DLC, released on 14th Dec 2023. Raikou is a legendary Pokemon that is available after completing the story of Indigo DLC.


Once the main story of Indigo DLC is completed, return to the Blueberry Academy in the Southeastern part of the map. Here you will find a new NPC named Snacksworth at the entrance of the academy who is related to the BBQ Quest.

NPC (Snacksworth) appears at the entrance of Blueberry Academy and tracks your progress through BBQs. He will give you the location of legendary post-game Pokemon. However, he will randomly give you only 1 clue after each of the 10 BBQ quests you complete. All the BBQ quests you have completed by this time will be counted.

The order in which he gives clues is random, so you have to look for clues for Raikou Pokemon until he provides it. Once the NPC gives the clues, return to the Paldea region.

Once in the Paldea region, head to the far east of The Great Crater of Paldea. You can fly to one of the Pokémon Centers or the Watchtower in West Province and then head toward the circular pool of water with a rock in the middle of it.

A level 70 Raikou will be waiting for you in the grassy area right above that pool of water.
