Where to find Cherubi in Pokémon Sword and Shield

If you plan to complete the Pokédex in Sword and Shield, Cherubi might be one of the most annoying Pokémon to find.

It doesn’t appear in the overworld or tall grass at all and can only be located on specific routes and parts of the game. Cherubi can be found in the various Berry Trees and Bushes scattered across the Galar region, but not all of them.

The best place to find Cherubi is on Route 3. There’s a lone Berry Tree there and it has the highest chance to appear there over anything else. Just save before going to the Berry Bush, keep shaking it until a Pokémon drops, and if it isn’t Cherubi, just reset the game until you get one.

Otherwise, Cherubi will also appear in Berry Bushes in Axew’s Eye, Bridge Field, Dappled Grove, Giant’s Cap, Giant’s Mirror, Giant’s Seat, Hammerlocke Hills, Lake of Outrage, Motostoke Riverbank, North Lake Miloch, Rolling Fields, and Watchtower Ruins. But the chances of finding one are sometimes less than five percent.

The last place where you can find a Cherubi is in Max Raid Battles, as long as you can find one of those.
