Roaring Moon is a Paradox Pokemon, a variation of Salamance who’s exclusive to Pokemon Scarlet. You can only catch Roaring Moon following the final boss battle in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, so you’ll need to see the credits roll before you even get a shot at finding this ultra-rare Pokemon. You’ll also need to have plenty of high-level balls on hand and probably a Pokemon who knows False Swipe, just to be safe. With that in mind, here’s where to find and how to catch Roaring Moon in Pokemon Scarlet.
Where to find Roaring Moon in Pokemon Scarlet
The Great Crater of Paldea, also known as Area Zero, is a zone that’s off-limits for most of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. As you approach the end-game, you’ll find yourself galloping down a dozen winding paths to reach the bottom and discover new Pokemon. However, Area Zero lacks a map, and figuring out where specific Pokemon are can be quite frustrating. Here are some step-by-step instructions on how to reach Roaring Moon’s location in Pokemon Scarlet. For more visual help, we’ve provided some step-by-step images below, too. Once you reach Roaring Moon’s location, it’s time for battle. Roaring Moon is a Dark and Dragon dual type, so if you want to exploit type advantages, bring along Fighting, Dragon, Fairy, or Ice types. Baxcalibur has Ice and Dragon covered, so they’re a good candidate. However, you need not scramble to put the Pokemon to sleep or worry about using your Master Ball just yet; multiple Roaring Moon will continually spawn in this location, and you can battle it out with and catch as many as you want. If you’re playing Pokemon Violet, you’ll have to trade to get Roaring Moon in your game. Your special Paradox ‘mon is Iron Valiant. With Roaring Moon in your collection, don’t forget to collect all the Eeveelutions, Scream Tail, and be sure to trade with friends for their version exclusives so you can truly catch ‘em all!
