| Feel free to share other glitches and bugs you've encountered in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet (SV) in the comment section below! |
Catch an Indeedee with the move Trick Room from 5-Star Tera Raid dens!
| 1 | Check your Tera Raid Dens for a 5-Star Female Indeedee Raid Ideally, you should check all active raid dens for an Indeedee raid. |
|---|---|
| 2 | If you can not find an active Indeedee Raid, press the Home Button and go to your System Settings. |
| 3 | Move your date one day forward to spawn new Dens and Outbreaks. You can also move the time one minute backwards and it will have the same effect. |
| 4 | Check the newly generated Dens for a 5-Star Female Indeedee Raid |
| 5 | Repeat steps 2~4 until you find a 5-Star Female Indeedee Raid, |
| 6 | Save your game before starting the raid, then defeat and catch the Trick Room Female Indeedee. |
Trick Room Female Indeedee Glitch
For players that have unlocked Dash and Glide Ride abilities, there's a glitch that allows you to glide at super fast speeds!
| 1 |  Head to Glaseado Mountain Peak |
|---|---|
| 2 |  Ride Koraidon/Miraidon, and Dash then jump to Glide. |
| 3 |  While Gliding, press B to cancel |
| 4 |  Tilt the joystick to the left or right while pressing B repeatedly. |
| 5 |  When Koraidon/Miraidon is about to glide, tilt your joystick slightly forward to accelerate. |
| 6 | Repeat steps 3~5 until you see a noticable speed boost and solid white vapor trails! |
Players can steal items from wild Pokemon infinitely using item-stealing moves like Thief!
| 1 |  Find the Pokemon holding the item you want. To confirm easily, use a Pokemon with Frisk. |
|---|---|
| 2 |  Use Item-stealing moves like Thief to steal the wild Pokemon's held Item |
| 3 |  Run away from the battle after stealing the held item. |
| 4 | Challenge the same Pokemon and it will have the held item again! |
| 5 | Repeat Steps 2-4 until you have as much of the item you want. |
Unlike previous games, the stolen item will not be held by your Pokemon, and will instead be sent directly to your bag. Be sure to check your bag every now and then to see how many you obtained so far!
Unlimited Items Exploit
For players with access to Area Zero in Pokemon Scarlet, there's a glitch that allows you to greatly increase your chances of finding multiple Shiny Flutter Mane!
| 1 |  Setup a Picnic somewhere near Area Zero. For best results, do this at the start of the day. |
|---|---|
| 2 |  Create a Shiny Sandwich for Ghost Type Pokemon! Recommended Recipe: Salty Herba Mystica (x2) and a Red Onion! If you don't have 2 Salty Herba Mystica, you can use 1 Salty and 1 Spicy Herba Mystica. |
| 3 |  Enter Area Zero and head to Station 3. From here, enter the cave before you. You should see no Pokemon inside at this time. |
| 4 |  Inside the cave, you should find a central platform. You'll need to head over here and stand in the center. |
| 5 |  Look around you and press ZL. This will cause Flutter Mane to spawn, but they will just as quickly disappear. This is similar to the Picnic Table Method for respawning. |
| 6 |  A Shiny Flutter Mane should appear in the first few minutes! Capture it with Dusk Balls! If you can't find one, try checking near the Crystals as Pokemon can sometimes glitch inside them. |
| 7 | Repeat until your Meal Power runs out! |
This same glitch should also work on other Pokemon that appear only during certain times of day! For best results, find areas where they are the only Pokemon of their type to spawn and adjust the Shiny Sandwich for those encounters!
For other Pokemon that aren't glitching, check out our Shiny Hunting Guide!
Shiny Hunting Guide and Shiny Odds
Quick Balls are an effective way to catch Pokemon easily. This type of Poke Ball has a high capture rate when used right at the start of an encounter.
| 1 |  Encounter a Pokemon. |
|---|---|
| 2 |  Throw a Quick Ball on the first turn. A Quick Ball is most effective when used at the start of a wild encounter. |
| 3 | If it breaks out, run away. Quick Ball loses its effectiveness if it is thrown after the first turn, so it is best to simply run away from the battle and encounter the Pokemon again to essentially reset the battle. |
| 4 | Repeat steps 1-3 until it is captured. |
If you just broke the bank EV Training your Pokemon or need more money in general, then this little trick will help you farm Star Pieces and earn you between ₽60,000 - ₽100,000 every 30 minutes.
| Time Required | Earnings |
|---|---|
| 30 Minutes | ₽66,000 to ₽102,000 (based on testing) |
| 1 Hour | ₽132,000 to ₽204,000 (estimated) |
| 2 Hours | ₽264,000 to ₽408,000 (estimated) |
| 3 Hours | ₽396,000 to ₽612,000 (estimated) |
| 1 |  Turn off Autosaving through the Options Menu. |
|---|---|
| 2 |  Go to the Asado Desert and look for items on the ground that sparkle. Make sure the item's on an even enough surface so you can lay down a picnic table. |
| 3 |  Pick the items up to check what they are, but save your game before you do so. Do this so if you pick the item up and it turns out to be a Star Piece, you only need to quit the game and open your previous save to have it back on the ground again. |
| 4 |  Once you find a Star Piece, get ready to lay down your picnic table. The Egg Basket must cover the sparkling item on the ground for this exploit to work. |
| 5 |  Make a Great Peanut Butter Sandwich. This sandwich increases your Egg Power, which affects the chances of finding Star Pieces in the Egg Basket. If you don't have the Great Peanut Butter sandwich recipe yet, just combine Bananas, Butter, and Peanut Butter in Creative Mode. |
| 6 |  Wait. Once you've eaten the sandwich, wait for a while before Star Pieces start appearing in your Egg Basket. |
| 7 |  Enjoy your new Star Piece/Item Farm. While waiting for more Star Pieces, you can leave the game running on the Switch and do something else in the meantime as items accumulate in the egg basket. We recommend using a timer so you can keep track of when the effects of the Great Peanut Butter Sandwich have worn off after 30 minutes. Once they do, make another Great Peanut Butter Sandwich. |
| NOTE: This glitch has been fixed as of Version 1.1.0 on December 1, 2022. If you want to take advantage of this exploit, avoid updating your game until you've finished duping any items you need! |
A glitch in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet allows you to duplicate both the legendary Pokemon Koraidon or Miraidon, as well an item of your choice.
If you've already finished the game and have access to either Koraidon or Miraidon's battle form, you can potentially have a huge amount of Master Balls, Big Nuggets, Rare Candies, etc.
| 1 |  Change your Miraidon/Koraidon into Battle Form. |
|---|---|
| 2 |  Give it the item you want to duplicate. In this case, we're duplicating a Master Ball. |
| 3 |  Change Miraidon/Koraidon into Riding Form and go out to catch Pokemon. |
| 4 |  At your desired hunting spot, change Miraidon/Koraidon into Battle Form again. |
| 5 |  Catch a Pokemon. Any Pokemon will do. Accept this Pokemon in your team. We suggest hunting for low level Pokemon and using Great Balls or Ultra Balls if you can afford them. |
| 6 |  You'll be asked which Pokemon to send to your Boxes to make space for your new Pokemon. Highlight Miraidon/Koraidon. But don't press anything yet. |
| 7 | Press the A and B Buttons at almost the same time to send Miraidon/Koraidon to your Box. The trick is to fully press the A Button and then quickly flatten the B Button with the rest of your thumb as if you pressed both buttons at the same moment. If it doesn't work, the game will say "You can't send [Miraidon/Koraidon] to your Boxes", but you'll have the chance to do it again. |
| 8 |  If you're successful, you'll be asked if you want to store the item Miraidon/Koraidon is holding. Pick "Place the item in your Bag". This puts the duplicated item into your possession. |
| 9 |  The new Pokemon will be put into your party, and Miraidon/Koraidon will disappear. Don't panic; they haven't disappeared for good. Press the "+ Button" to make a new Miraidon/Koraidon appear in their Riding Form while still holding the original item you wanted to duplicate. Meanwhile, your original Koraidon will be in your Box, waiting to be taken out. |
| 10 |  If you want more of the item you duplicated, repeat steps 1-9. Enjoy your mountains of Master Balls, Rare Candies, Big Nuggets, and Miraidons/Koraidons. |
If you want to somehow increase your movement speed on foot, then you might want to try connecting a second controller to your Nintendo Switch. Using two controllers increases his/her running speed.
| 1 | Connect a second controller to your Switch |
|---|---|
| 2 | Fire up Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. |
| 3 | Run with your character using both controllers. Make sure the left analog sticks on both controllers are being pushed in the same direction. |
| 4 | Enjoy your faster running speed. |
In the early game, it's frustrating to find yourself unable to scale mountains or climb up ledges! Using the Backwards Jump Glitch is one sure way to bypass all of that!
| 1 | Turn so that you are facing the opposite direction of where you want to go. |
|---|---|
| 2 | Jump or long jump and without pushing the joystick. |
| 3 | Once you are midair, pull back your joystick to move backwards. |
| 4 | Head up areas you can't scale this way, occasionally adjusting your position along the way! |
This teleport exploit allows you to reach areas that are usually not accessible in the early game, such as the small islands surrounded by the water in South Province (Area Five). You can also use it to teleport out of bounds though it may take a few tries to achieve it.
| 1 | Press and hold the ZL Button to lock-on to the wild Pokemon. |
|---|---|
| 2 | Release the ZL button to initiate a battle with the targeted wild Pokemon. |
| 3 | If done correctly, the player character will teleport to get close to the wild Pokemon during the battle. Defeat the Pokemon or run from it to freely roam around the area where you teleported to. |

They only patched the dupe legendary on 1.1 On 1.2 they fully patched it in all it's steps, the "cloning" effect still plays but you won't actually clone the pokemon item/stats I guess the only useful thing would be for those that want battle and ride for without the trouble of changing every time
