Learn how to catch Munkidori and the Loyal Three in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's The Teal Mask DLC. Includes recommended items, Pokémon, and strategies for success.
Walkthrough
- 1Prepare Your Items: Stock up on a good quantity (30-50) of Dusk Balls (effective at night), Quick Balls (for an early chance capture), Timer Balls (effective in long battles), and Ultra Balls (as a last resort). Max Revives are also recommended for healing.
- Locate Munkidori: Munkidori can be found near the water's edge at Wisteria Pond, the same location as its Titanic battle.
- 2Assemble Your Team: Aim for a team of level 100 Pokémon. Mew, equipped with False Swipe and Thunder Wave, is highly recommended. Mewtwo is also a strong choice for dealing significant damage.
- 3Initiate the Encounter: Before approaching Munkidori, turn off auto-saving and manually save your game. This allows for a soft reset if the capture attempt fails.
- 4Battle Strategy: Have Mewtwo deal a substantial blow to Munkidori. Then, switch to Mew and use False Swipe to reduce Munkidori's HP to exactly 1. Follow up with Thunder Wave to paralyze Munkidori, increasing your chances of capture.
- 5Capture Munkidori: While keeping your team from fainting, continuously throw Dusk Balls, Timer Balls, and Ultra Balls. If the battle drags on too long or you fail to capture Munkidori, soft reset your game and try again.
Tips
- Munkidori can inflict bad poison with physical moves, so be prepared with healing items like Max Revives.
- Saving before the encounter allows you to retry without losing progress if Munkidori flees or is not captured.
- Mew's False Swipe guarantees Munkidori will not faint from its attacks, making it crucial for weakening the target.
