Catch Okidogi in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

AntMag.NET

Alright, so you're looking to snag Okidogi in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet's Teal Mask DLC, huh? It can be a bit tricky since these guys don't just roll over and let you catch 'em. But don't worry, I've got a solid plan that'll help you add Okidogi to your team in no time. Let's get you prepped!

What You'll Need:

Dusk Balls: These are your best friend for night-time captures, giving you a better shot.
Quick Balls: Always worth a shot right at the start of the battle – you never know when one will stick!
Timer Balls: If the fight drags on, these become super effective. The longer the battle, the better they work.
Ultra Balls: Your reliable fallback if you run out of the special balls.
Max Revives: Just in case Okidogi lands a critical hit that really hurts your team.

It's a good idea to stock up, maybe aim for 30-50 of each type of Poké Ball to be safe.

Finding Okidogi:

You'll find Okidogi chilling near the water at Paradise Barrens. It's in the same general area where you had your previous battle with its Titanic form, so just head back there. It might be a little harder to spot this time around, so keep your eyes peeled!

Assembling Your Dream Team:

Since Okidogi and the rest of the Loyal Three are around Level 70, you'll want your team to be at Level 100 to really stand a chance. A great strategy involves using Mew and Mewtwo. You can get Mewtwo through a special event, and Mew is usually available via Mystery Gift. They're super powerful and have versatile move sets that make capturing the Loyal Three much easier.

For Mew, make sure it knows False Swipe and Thunder Wave. Mewtwo is a powerhouse that can knock down Okidogi's HP quickly. Once Mewtwo has done enough damage, switch to Mew.

The Strategy:

Save Your Game: Before you even think about starting the encounter, disable auto-save and save your game. This way, if things go south, you can just soft reset and try again without losing progress.
Damage with Mewtwo: Have Mewtwo deal significant damage to Okidogi. Its high attack power will bring Okidogi's HP down fast.
Switch to Mew: Once Okidogi's HP is low enough, switch to Mew.
Use False Swipe: Use Mew's False Swipe to bring Okidogi's HP down to just 1 HP. This move guarantees the target will have at least 1 HP left, preventing you from accidentally knocking it out.
Paralyze with Thunder Wave: Immediately follow up with Thunder Wave. This will paralyze Okidogi, making it much easier to catch.
Throw Your Balls: Now, start throwing your Dusk Balls, Timer Balls, or Ultra Balls. Keep at it!
Soft Reset if Needed: If the capture attempt takes too long or you accidentally faint Okidogi, don't sweat it. Just soft reset your game and try the whole process again. It might take a few tries, but you'll get it!

Keep your team from fainting throughout the battle, and eventually, you'll have your very own Okidogi!
