The post PSA: You can collect exclusive Pokemon in Scarlet and Violet co-op, but it’s proximity based appeared first on Destructoid.
To be clear, you can catch exclusive Pokemon in co-op from either game that the co-op session has access to, but everything is proximity-based.
After drudging through internet forum rumors and all sorts of wacky tips that didn’t pan out: I finally found the answer to whether or not Pokemon Scarlet and Violet co-op can provide access to exclusives.
The other player can potentially look up Pokemon locations on their Pokedex, then you can ride out together and look for them, and capture them together.
