Discover how to find and catch the elusive Mythical Pokémon Meloetta in the Indigo Disk DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Follow our step-by-step guide!

Alright, so you're looking to snag Meloetta in the Indigo Disk? It's a bit of a hidden gem, not just lying around, but don't worry, I'll walk you through it!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll want to head to the Coastal Biome in the Terarium. Your best starting point is the Coastal Outdoor Classroom, which is located up on the mountain towards the southwest side of the biome.
  2. 2
    Once you're there, make your way a short distance east. You're looking for a patch of grassland that's on lower ground, right where it meets the mountain lake.
  3. 3
    Now, get yourself to the center of the northern half of these grasslands. We've marked the exact spot on our map for you. You're aiming for an area near a tall bit of foliage, where three larger trees kind of form a meeting point.
  4. 4
    Keep an eye out for a subtle gust of wind with leaves swirling around it. This is your sign!
  5. 5
    Stand right in the middle of this gust and start spinning your character clockwise. Just keep rotating the circle pad in the same direction as the wind and leaves. It might take a bit, so try spinning for about 30 seconds to be safe.
  6. 6
    As soon as you've done that, quickly open the camera using the Down button on your D-pad. Then, immediately switch to the Sepia filter. You do this by pressing Left on the D-pad five times.
  7. 7
    Now, look around. If you did everything right, you should start hearing singing! That's Meloetta letting you know it's appeared. If you don't hear anything, don't sweat it – just try again from a slightly different spot or spin a bit longer.
  8. 8
    Once you hear the singing and spot Meloetta, turn off the camera. Then, just walk up to it and press the A button to interact and start the battle to catch it.
Tips
  • Meloetta is a Level 70 Pokémon and is initially Normal/Psychic type.
  • When it uses its move Relic Song, it'll switch to its Normal/Fighting Pirouette form. It can switch back and forth between these forms.
  • For battling, Ghost-type Pokémon are great because they take no damage from Meloetta's Relic Song and Hyper Voice. Dark-types are also good for resisting its Psychic attacks.
  • Sing can be a bit annoying as it might put your Pokémon to sleep, so be prepared for that.
  • Otherwise, stick to your usual strategy for catching tough Pokémon. Use moves like False Swipe to get its HP down to 1 without knocking it out. Status conditions like Paralysis or Sleep can also help make catching easier.
  • Finally, lob your best Poké Balls – Ultra Balls are a solid choice, or use whichever ones you like the look of best!
