How to Get Squirtle

Get from Honey in the Isle of Armor

You can either get a Squirtle or a Bulbasaur with Gigantamax Factor from Honey in the Isle of Armor Dojo. You will have to catch the three speedy Slowpokes in order to get one of the free Kanto starters.

Note that you can only pick and get one of the two. So choose wisely!

Available Through Pokemon HOME

Although Squirtle is originally not obtainable in Pokemon Sword and Shield, you can get it by transferring it from Pokemon's new cloud service, Pokemon HOME, to the game.
