Just like with any new Pokémon-related reveal, the first thing fans of the franchise always ask is which Pokémon will actually be available when they begin their journey in a new region. The exact same is true with Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the generation nine games revealed back on Pokémon Day 2022.
As we rapidly approach the Nov. 18 launch for these new adventures, more trailers, teasers, and detailed breakdowns of new mechanics and locations are coming out. This typically includes a look at what Pokémon, both new and old, call each area home.

We are constantly getting new information about original species from the Paldea region, but for anyone who is interested in the classics, here is a list of every Pokémon we know is going to be featured in Scarlet and Violet.
If a Pokémon has been shown in any promo material or trailers for Scarlet and Violet, it and its entire core evolutionary line have been listed since it is almost guaranteed they will all be in. This does not include regional variants of those Pokémon or any new evolutions.
