Pokemon Scarlet & Violet reintroduced the Vivillon family of Bug-types, which can have over 18 different unique wing patterns. Here’s how to find the Scatterbug family in Generation 9.

In every mainline Pokemon generation, there is always an early-game Bug-type to help players fill out their team in the beginning of their adventure.

While players may be tempted to stick with the newly introduced Tarountula and Spidops, there are plenty of returning options like the Scatterbug evolutionary family.

Where to find Vivillon in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

Sadly, trainers cannot find Vivillon out in the wild at all. As such, they will need to evolve Spewpa into Vivillon to fully register it in the Pokedex.

How to evolve Scatterbug and Spewpa

How to obtain all Vivillon patterns

Unfortunately for trainers looking to own all of Vivillons different wing patterns in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, you can’t do so in the Switch game alone.

This is because every Spewpa evolved in Scarlet & Violet will turn into a Vivillon with the Fancy pattern no matter where it’s evolved. As such, players who want to collect every different pattern will need to rely on either Pokemon Go or a previous collection in Pokemon Home.
