The 5 Rarest (And Most Powerful) Pokémon in Sword And Shield And Where To Find Them

Pokémon games have always had those few rare and powerful Pokémon, and Pokémon Sword & Shield are no different. In Nintendo’s newest iteration of the series for the Nintendo Switch, five Pokémon stand above the rest as both elusive and worthy of being included in every Pokémon party.

If you want to catch these five Pokémon, you won’t do it simply by freely roaming around, hoping to encounter them. Here’s exactly who they are, and where you can find them.

5 Dreepy

Dreepy is beloved, as it serves the role Dratini did in the first generation of Pokémon. Once you have a Dreepy, you can evolve it into the masterfully powerful Dragapult, which should accelerate you on your Pokémon journey. Pseudo-legendary dragon types have always been covetable, and Dreepy is no exception.

If you want to find a Dreepy, you’ll need to cross the Lake of Outrage with your Rotom Bike. Once there, find the small patch of grass area– roaming it will give you a 1% chance to spawn a Dreepy, and another 1% chance to spawn its evolution, Drakloak. Yeah, the odds still aren’t great even if you’re in the right place, but this is a rare Pokémon list, after all.

4 Rotom

Rotom is a cute little electric Pokémon that has many forms and first appeared in Diamond and Pearl. While Rotom is not technically a legendary, its consistent elusiveness has rendered it close to being considered one. Its ability to change forms, despite its low stats, allows Rotom to serve multiple purposes in battle. Also, it just frankly looks cool, which is probably why so many people want to catch it.



If you want a Rotom, it can be caught in the Lake of Outrage zone in the Wild Area. While it only has a 2% chance to spawn – and only during rain and thunderstorms – Rotom will be easy to spot. It zips around rapidly, blinking into existence. Notice a common trend? The Lake of Outrage area houses many of the game’s rare Pokémon that you’ll want as part of your team.

3 Feebas

Of course, nobody really wants Feebas. They want its evolved form, Milotic. However, Milotic doesn’t appear in the wild. If you want Milotic, you’ll have to settle for the uglier, lesser version of it to start.

Feebas can be found in the water around Route 2 by fishing. Since you’ll need to be decently far into the game to even have a chance to find Feebas – who is still difficult to find, even while fishing ther – and Feebas itself is rather weak, you’ll definitely want to evolve it ASAP. To do so, you’ll need to set up a trade with a friend as the only way to evolve Feebas is to trade it while it holds a Prism Scale.

2 Dhelmise

Unlike some of the other rare Pokémon on this list, Dhelmise actually appears in the overworld, on Route 9. Though it can also be found in the Wild Area or through Max Raid Battles, your best bet is definitely Route 9. It has a low spawn percentage; however, you simply have to run around until it shows up.

1 Duraludon

Ah, a Steel and Dragon-type Pokémon with solid stats. Any master Pokémon trainer’s dream. Duraludon will make a great addition to your party, which makes finding the rare Pokémon a worthy quest.


If you want to find a Duraludon, you actually have a few options. First, you can find one in the same Lake of Outrage area as you can find these other rare Pokémon, which should come as no surprise; still, there’s only a 2% chance it spawns there, and it’s not an overworld experience. On Route 10, you can find Duraludon as an overworld character, but there’s only a 1% chance it spawns. Your most reliable method would be trading a Frosmoth to a man in Wyndon in exchange for his Duraludon. This man lives in a blue house, on the left of the road when moving from Wyndon to Wyndon Stadium.
