While Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are now here, it doesn't mean you need to leave the Pokemon Sword and Shield Wild Area behind. It was the first open world element the series had ever seen of course, so it needs to not be forgotten. It is designed to allow you to more freely explore and catch Pokemon than ever before, and is the origin of the evolutions seen with Pokemon Legends Arceus and now Scarlet and Violet too. 

There's a lot to see and do in the Pokemon Sword and Shield Wild Area. You can chat to NPCs, take part in the challenging Max Raid Battles, earn and spend Watts, and so much more. This Pokemon Sword and Shield Wild Area Guide details all of the wild Pokemon you can find in the north and south sides of the space, your chance of encountering them, and lists the weather conditions that they will typically spawn in. 

Note: The 'Overworld' refers to the Pokemon Sword and Shield critters you can actually see before you encounter them – they wander freely around the surface of Galar. 'Non-Overworld' refers to encounters that happen when an exclamation mark pops up in tall grass.

Freelance Writer

Give me a game and I will write every "how to" I possibly can or die trying. When I'm not knee-deep in a game to write guides on, you'll find me hurtling round the track in F1, flinging balls on my phone in Pokemon Go, pretending to know what I'm doing in Football Manager, or clicking on heads in Valorant.
