The Indigo Disk, the second expansion for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet in The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, is an early holiday gift for fans eager to explore more.
One of the new Indigo Disk quests requires players to “successfully sneak up on one Pokémon and surprise them with a battle.” If you’re unsure how to sneak up on a Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: The Indigo Disk, here is everything you need to know.
Sneaking up on a Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk, explained
Sneaking up on a Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet is quite a straightforward task and works the same way for both titles in the series and the DLC. You can get it done quickly by following the steps listed below:
- First, crouch by pressing B.
- Then, sneak behind the Pokémon you wish to sneak up on.
- Lock onto it with the left trigger, then throw the Poké Ball at it with the right trigger.
Pressing “B” puts your character into a crouch stance automatically. You do not need to hold the “B” button to sneak. Pressing “B” again will halt your sneaking.
And that is all you need to do. If you get a message on the screen saying that the Pokémon “was caught off guard,” you have done it successfully. The task is complete, and you can collect your BP.
If not, try again, and you should complete the task soon.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk launched on Dec. 14. It’s a Nintendo Switch-exclusive expansion DLC for the latest entry in the Pokémon series.
When you correctly sneak up on a Pokémon and receive the message that the Pokémon was “caught off guard,” you will be able to act first in battle or potentially go twice, depending on your Pokémon’s speed.
There you have it. Now you know everything you need about sneaking up on Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Happy sneaking!
