To get Chespin, participate in a 7-star Raid or transfer from Pokemon HOME/Pokemon GO. For a quick catch, transferring from Pokemon GO works best, but completing the main story and post-game content also grants access. In the Indigo Disk DLC, Chespin is now available in Terarium, requiring a good amount of Blueberry Points (BP) in the postgame. This updated guide covers catching Chespin without trades or transfers.

How to Get Chespin in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?

In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, getting Chespin involves a few steps:

Indigo Disk DLC Access:

  • Chespin is found through the Indigo Disk DLC. First, complete specific game sections: "Path of Legends," "Starfall Street," "Victory Road," and finish the "The Way Home" quest. Defeat Kieran in Kitakami's story for access.

Unlock Terarium Club:

  • To reach Chargestone Cavern and find Chespin, contribute 3000BP to the Terarium Club for the Canyon Biome. Visit Blueberry Academy, choose the League Club, and contribute BP. Then head to Chargestone Cavern southwest of Central Plaza.

Evolving Chespin:

  • Chespin evolves into Quilladin at level 16 and further into Chesnaught at level 36. Level up Chespin once for the first evolution and then Quilladin for the final form.

    • Trading with other players using the Nintendo Switch Online Subscription.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are games that came out in 2022 for the Nintendo Switch. They're the first games in the ninth set of Pokémon games. These games are different because they happen in a place called the Paldea region, which is like the Iberian Peninsula and has a big open world.

In these games, players can finish three different stories. Scarlet and Violet show off 110 new Pokémon, two new kinds specific to that region, and some special Pokémon called Paradox Pokémon. They also have this thing called the Terastal, which lets Pokémon change into a special "Tera Type."

These games got a bit of mixed feedback from experts. Some liked the open world and the stories, but others didn't like how the games looked or some problems they had when they first came out. Even with that, they sold a whole lot—like over 23 million copies by September 2023. So, while they got some criticism, a lot of people still really liked them and thought they brought new stuff to the Pokémon games.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Gameplay

In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the gameplay sticks to what we're used to catching Pokémon, exploring, and battling trainers. But there's a cool new twist! Now, players can pick if they want to battle trainers on special paths. These games have big open worlds with cities and wild areas all mixed together without clear borders between them, unlike older Pokémon games.

You get to pick your own path and do things in any order you like, which is pretty neat. There are 112 new Pokémon in these games, including new starters like Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly, and two legendary ones, Koraidon and Miraidon, who can help you travel around. They also have new forms for some Pokémon, like the Paradox ones and "convergent evolution" Pokémon that look like other ones but are totally different.

You can even let your Pokémon wander around the world and fight other wild Pokémon automatically! Plus, you can team up with three friends for co-op play. One super cool thing is the Terastal thing that makes Pokémon look crystalline and changes their type. It's like they get special moves matching their new type, which is pretty awesome.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Plot

In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, players start as new Pokémon trainers in the Paldea region. The story kicks off as they embark on a journey to become Pokémon Champions. Along the way, they meet Professor Cypress, who guides them and gives them their first Pokémon.

As players explore the open-world Paldea region, they encounter Team Umbra, a mysterious group causing trouble and aiming for something big. Throughout the adventure, players aim to stop Team Umbra's plans while challenging Gym Leaders, and powerful trainers, and unravelling the mysteries behind the legendary Pokémon, Koraidon and Miraidon. The journey is filled with friendships, battles, discoveries, and the ultimate goal of becoming the region's Champion while ensuring peace in Paldea.
