All Stake Locations in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

There are 32 mysterious stakes to be discovered in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, scattered around the region of Paldea. While the task of finding these stakes and pulling them out of the ground may feel daunting at first, the reward is well worth the time spent. Four Legendary Pokemon are tied to each set of stakes, exclusive to the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet games, and can be captured once the conditions to open their dungeons have been met.

The four colors of stakes are Green, Yellow, Blue, and Purple, and are located in specific areas of the Paldea map. For example, the green stakes can all be located in the upper-west section of the map, while the purple stakes are found in the south and southeastern sections of Paldea. Players can prioritize a single set during their search or unlock any stakes as they stumble upon them, but it is recommended to have Koraidon/Miraidon fully powered, with all of their skills unlocked.

How to Catch Ting-Lu

Eight green stakes are what separate the player from encountering and capturing Ting-Lu, the Ground/Dark Legendary Pokemon of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Once all eight stakes have been pulled from the ground, the Groundblight Shrine will open and can be found north of the Casseroya Lake Islet fast travel point. Be sure to save before taking on this beast in case the Pokemon is accidentally slain.

Location 1: Head to the Socarrat Trail and find the cave towards the east. The fastest way to reach this destination is to use a fast travel point at the top of Glaseado Mountain and travel to the northwest part of the map.
Location 2: Travel to the Gracia Stones fast travel point or use the one at Casseroya Lake and head west. The stake will be found by a cliff near the edge of a body of water.
Location 3: This stake can also be found by using the Casseroya Lake fast travel point, which will be hard to miss as the stake can be found close by. Take a few steps towards the east and find it in seconds.
Location 4: Next, take the Port Marinada fast travel point and travel north until a cliff has been reached. The next green stake will be discovered here, next to a beautiful view of the water and the surrounding areas.
Location 5: It's time to head back to Casseroya Lake and head in a different direction to discover the fifth green stake. Players will need their Miraidon/Koraidon to swim south across the water between two small islands to find it.
Location 6: Travel to the Porto Marinada fast travel point and set out to the northeast part of the Paldea map to discover a small bridge. Instead of crossing it, head west to find the next green stake lying in a field of grass.
Location 7: To the east of Porto Marinada's fast travel point, players will need to seek out Collonade Hollow, one of the ten beautiful sights to find in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Inside the Collonade Hollow, players can find a stake sitting atop a large pillar.
Location 8: Finally, players will need to travel to the Glaseado Gym waypoint and travel to the west to seek out the last green stake. This one will be sitting on a high ledge, which oversees a Pokemon stop point in the distance

How to Unlock Chien-Pao

Chien-Pao is the Dark/Ice Legendary of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and it won't be an easy take to take down and capture. In order to encounter it, players will need to discover the eight yellow stakes scattered around Paldea, pulling them out of the ground to unlock the Icerend Shrine and Chien-Pao. This Pokemon is very powerful, but can be re-encountered after some time passes if the player and their Pokemon blackout.

Location 1: In the East Province (Area One) region, players can find the first yellow stake near the Leaked Tower of Paldea. The trail will require some climbing, so be sure to have Koraidon/Miraidon's skill to scale mountains unlocked.
Location 2: Next, head over to Area One of the West Province via the PokeStop and go south to find the next yellow stake. This one will also require the player's Koraidon/Miraidon to climb the side of mountains.
Location 3: It's time to travel to Western Province's Area Three for the third yellow stake, which can be found at the bottom of a plateau. Players should be able to access this section with a Koraidon/Miraidon's leaping abilities.
Location 4: Sticking with the Western Province, players can find the fourth yellow stake near the Asado Desert. Luckily, there are two fast travel waypoints to take advantage of, one in the Asado Desert and the other in Cacarrafa.
Location 5: For players who have reached the Pokemon League, they won't need to travel too far to find the fifth yellow stake. Simply head west from the PokeStop and find it resting between two hills in plain sight.
Location 6: In Cascarrafa, the sixth yellow stake can be found and may be one of the easiest stakes to spot in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Go behind the Cascarrafa Gym to find the yellow stake sitting by a tree.
Location 7: Between Southern Province's fourth and six areas, players can reach the seventh yellow stake close to a waterfall. Players can use the Alfornada or Cortondo fast travel waypoints but will require some travel time.
Location 8: The last yellow stake can be found close by Alfornada. In Area Six of the Southern Province, there will be a cave that holds the final yellow stake players need to find before opening up the Icerend Shrine.

How to Unlock Chi-Yu

The fish-body Legendary Pokemon known as Chi-Yu may not scare players at first glance, but its sheer power and Dark/Fire duo type will make up for its lack of size. Discovering all eight blue stakes will unlock the Firescourge Shrine, which can be found in the south area of the PokeStop in North Province's Area Two. Players should have a team fully prepared to take on one of the more frustrating encounters, thanks to its various status moves.

Location 1: The first blue stake can be found by taking the PokeStop fast travel point in Area One of the North Province. Head north from there and use the Miraidon/Koraidon's climbing abilities to find the stake at the top of a hill.
Location 2: For players who have taken down Eri's Fighting Crew Team Star base, the second blue stake can be found just above its location. Travel to the North Province Area Two PokeStop and head northeast for the easiest route.
Location 3: Since players are aiming to unlock Firescourge Shrine, finding the third blue stake will be close to its location. The third stake will be found atop one of the largest mountains in the area, next to a waterfall.
Location 4: Continuing near the Firescourge Shrine, there will be scattered remains of what was once a building nearby. Scavenge the area to find some items and the fourth blue stake, which is slightly hidden behind the ruins.
Location 5: The sixth blue stake is also located near a Team Star base, but this time the base belongs to Atticus. Players can find this stake near the Tagthree Thicket, tucked closely by a tree.
Location 6: Players will have an easier time locating the sixth blue stake, as it requires the players to travel to the Levincia fast travel waypoint. From here, players must venture just outside the city, where the stake will be seen on top of a hill.
Location 7: The next stop is the Dalizapa Passage Pokemon Center, where players can see some cliffs in the northeast. Traveling there will open up some grassy ledges, where the seventh blue stake can be spotted.
Location 8: Thankfully, the final blue stake can be found easily thanks to Miraidon/Koraidon's flying ability. Head over to the northeast of Glaseado Mountain to find the stake comfortably placed next to a stone by a large coast next to the water.

How to Unlock Wo-Chien

After all eight purple stakes have been secured, the Grassswither Shrine will open up and welcome players to encounter Wo-Chien, the Grass/Dark Legendary Pokemon. This lump of mass is no easy task to take down, as it has a combination of devastating moves to defeat any Pokemon it faces, plus an HP replenish move in Giga Drain. Players should have plenty of Ultra Balls and Potions to get through this fight, otherwise Wo-Chien will make short work of the team.

Location 1: Players will have the option between traveling to the Poco Path Lighthouse and the Los Platos (East) Pokemon Center. Between these two fast travel spots will hold the first purple stake, which will be at the top of a waterfall.
Location 2: Sticking around the same area, just north of the Los Platos (East) Pokemon Center is the next purple stake. There are some small-to-medium-sized cliffs, one of which will hold the next stake, and it's the one facing the Pokemon Center.
Location 3: In South Province Area Five, players will need their Miraidon/Koraidon to scale the tallest mountain east of the Mesagoza (South) Pokemon Center. Once the top has been reached, the third purple stake will wait for the player.
Location 4: Next up, players can remain close to where they discovered the last purple stake and head south from the Pokemon Center. There will be a cliff holding the fourth stake, and it is conveniently placed where players will find the Grassswither Shrine once it opens up.
Location 5: For the fifth purple stake, go to the Mesagoza East Gate and head south. By the side of the river nearby, players can use their Miraidon/Koraidon to climb up a small cliff to discover the next stake.
Location 6: Continuing with the Mesagoza East Gate, players can venture out to the northeast to spot the next purple stake. This one can be found at the top of a mountainside, close to the South Province (Area Three) Pokemon Center.
Location 7: This next stake will require some patience, but it starts by heading to the South Province (Area Three) Watchtower. From there, players will climb to the top of the watchtower, face north, and leap off while flying to the cliffside, holding the seventh purple stake.
Location 8: Lastly, the seventh purple stake is the easiest of its class and requires little searching. Players will head over to the Artazon (West) Pokemon Center and climb to the top of the cliff located right next to it to reach the final stake.
