Sirfetch’d is one of the only Galarian Pokemon available in Pokemon Go. This guide will show players how they can find and capture this Pokemon.
Sirfetch’d is one of the more unique Pokemon players will encounter in Pokemon Go. This guide will show players how they can find and capture this Pokemon. Pokemon Go is currently up to the 6th generation of Pokemon that were previously introduced back in Pokemon X and Y. To prevent the game from getting too stale too fast, they roll out new Pokemon little by little. Although, they bend the rules when it comes to the release of a new generation in the mainline entries. When Pokemon Sun and Moon released, Pokemon Go celebrated by introducing Alolan forms into the game. Even though these Pokemon were introduced in generation 7, they still made an appearance. The same can be said about Pokemon Sword and Shield, as Pokemon Go introduced Galarian forms into the game. This is how players will be able to obtain their own Sirfetch’d in Pokemon Go.
Galarian and Alolan forms are alternate takes of older Pokemon. These act as a response to the natural habitat for which the Pokemon is known for. These changes include potential new typings and a new design to sport their new homes. In the case of Sirfetch’d in Pokemon Go, obtaining it might not be as obvious at first. This guide will show players what they can do to find their own.
How To Find (& Catch) Sirfetch’d in Pokemon Go
The only way to obtain Galarian Farfetch’d directly is to trade it with another player. Although, the game has a special way for players to get it on their own. For starters, players will need to have their own Galarian Farfetch’d. Obtaining this Pokemon is incredibly difficult if you’re outside of Asia. This Pokemon is exclusively regional for that area but the game has hosted events that released Galarian Farfetch’d in other regions. If you’re able to get your hands on a Galarian Farfetch, you will now need to set this Pokemon as your buddy and collect 50 Farfetch’d Candy. This isn’t too out of the ordinary, but the player will also need to make 10 Excellent Throws with this Pokemon as your buddy. Once this is done, players will then be able to evolve their Galarian Farfetch’d into a Sirfetched.
Players will need to literally become world travelers in order to capture some of the regional exclusive Pokemon. This has been a dream for many but maybe not a sustainable way of living. If you’re able to survive out there while trying to capture all the Pokemon then go for it. Sirfetch’d is just one of those examples where players will need to go above and beyond.
Pokemon Go is available now on iOS and Android.
