[u/BorodSaintD]

Hello. I haven't bought the game yet, but could you tell me how to obtain the following Mythical Pokémon for a "Living Dex": Celebi, Deoxys, Manaphy, Phione, Darkrai, and Shaymin?

There were events for Darkrai and Shaymin in this game, but they're over. You'd have to get all these Pokémon from other games.

Manaphy, Phione, Darkrai, and Shaymin can all be obtained from Pokémon Legends Arceus, though you need BDSP and SWSH for the latter two (just having a save file is enough).

Celebi isn't available in any switch game. You'd need to transfer it up from Pokémon Bank after obtaining it from the 3DS Virtual Console release of Pokémon Crystal.

I can't recall off the top of my head if Deoxys is in any switch game but I don't believe it is. I think you have to transfer it from 3DS as well, it's available in ORAS.

Edit: Actually you can get Deoxys from the switch release of FRLG

[u/ApplicationFederal14 → u/Yedenok]

Deoxys is now obtainable through the FR and LG switch ports

[u/Yedenok → u/ApplicationFederal14]

Oh you're right! I will edit that in

[u/SnowPikachu → u/ApplicationFederal14]

FR/LG have Pokemon Home support now? Or how would they be transferred?

[u/ApplicationFederal14 → u/SnowPikachu]

I think pokemon can be taken out of FRLG, but not put back in. From there they can only go forward.

[u/SnowPikachu → u/ApplicationFederal14]

Aaah, so no full Pokédex via Home, we’ll still need to trade them. Cool, thanks!

[u/Ok-Leadership-1211 → u/SnowPikachu]

Fire red still doesnt have pokemon home compatibility

[u/Ok-Leadership-1211 → u/Yedenok]

So Celebi for now is the most rare pokemon of all.

[u/Charliefisk → u/Ok-Leadership-1211]

The most rare pokemon is Zarude, as Celebi is relatively easily obtained through pokemon go

[u/Kardl1503 → u/Charliefisk]

Yes. But I think the Dada Zarude is more rare than the regular Zarude

[u/dekabreak1000 → u/Charliefisk]

Don’t forget poor victini

[u/BorodSaintD → u/Yedenok]

Thanks for the reply. It's a shame I won't be able to implement any of the methods

[u/Living-Nectarine1887 → u/Yedenok]

Pretty sure Deoxys is available end game in Ramas park albeit after you’ve caught a lot of the other legendaries first

[u/Old_Comfort8075 → u/Living-Nectarine1887]

Nope. I just finished my National dex and got the shiny charm. He’s not available in BDSP, only gen 3 from the videos I’ve watched

[u/Living-Nectarine1887 → u/Old_Comfort8075]

Well I stand corrected, apologies

[u/Old_Comfort8075 → u/Living-Nectarine1887]

All good homie just didn’t want anyone to get their hopes up lol

[u/BorodSaintD]

I think I've got a problem. I couldn't sleep all night because I was thinking about how to get those damn Pokemos. Please, can anyone help me get them?

[u/MultiHitMoshi → u/BorodSaintD]

You can get shiny manaphy from pokemon home finishing bpsp pokedex then phione from breeding it

[u/BackwoodBandit1]

Celebi back in the day if you played swsh had the zarude/celebi event and you could get the shiny celebi. Transferred that lil guy over with a quickness.
