How to get Ekans in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Teal Mask DLC

You can find Ekans in the following locations in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Teal Mask DLC:

• Mossfell Confluence
• Apple Hills
• Near the Crystal Pool

Ekans is a common spawn and players can even find the Pokemon right at the beginning of their Teal Mask DLC adventure.

Ekans seem to prefer caves as the spawn rate in the caves near the Crystal Pool is higher than those in other locations.

How to get Arbok in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Teal Mask DLC

Arbok can be found in only one location in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Teal Mask DLC: the Mossfell Confluence.

Players will have to head to the bottom right-hand part of the Kitakami map and then search the grass near the cliff sides for Arbok.

Unlike Ekans, Arbok is a very rare spawn in the Teal Mask DLC.

How to evolve Ekans into Arbok in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Teal Mask DLC

You can evolve Ekans into Arbok at level 22 in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Teal Mask DLC.

Luckily, most Ekans found in the wild are above level 22 so you can evolve and get Arbok right after catching them.

Arbok is a strong Poison-type Pokemon with an excellent Ability called Intimidate that lowers the opponent’s Attack stat. That’s not all, as the main Legendary Pokemon in the Teal Mask DLC, Ogerpon, is a Grass-type that is weak to Poison-type attacks.

This makes Arbok an excellent Pokemon to add to your team and win many battles on your DLC journey.

That’s all you need to know to get Ekans and Arbok in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. While you’re here, be sure to check out our other Pokemon Scarlet and Violet guides:
