One of the most exciting parts of the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk DLC is the return of all the previous starter Pokémon, including Gen III’s Water-type Mudkip. The Mud Fish Pokémon is one of three starters from the Hoenn region, evolving into Marshtomp and Swampert.
If you are a Mudkip fan or simply looking for a cute and powerful water-type Pokémon, you’re going to want to catch Mudkip in The Indigo Disk.
How to upgrade the Coastal Biome and unlock Mudkip in Pokémon SV The Indigo Disk DLC
Mudkip will not appear in the Terarium until after you upgrade the Coastal Biome. To do this, you need to:
- Head to the League Club Room
- Use the computer to donate BP to the Terarium Club.
- It costs 3,000 BP per Biome upgrade, including the Coastal Biome where Mudkip is found.
Once the Coastal Biome is upgraded, Mudkip will begin to spawn in the Coastal Biome, but only in a specific spot.
Mudkip location in Pokémon SV The Indigo Disk DLC
Mudkip is a rare spawn in near the Coastal Outdoor Classroom fly point, which can be entered in the Coastal Biome near its border with the Savanna Biome.
Among all the Alolan Diglett, Minior, Rotom, and other quirky Pokémon, a rare Mudkip may spawn in Coastal Outdoor Classroom, so keep an eye out for one—but only after you’ve upgraded the Coastal Biome. Otherwise, you’re wasting your time waiting for the starter Pokémon to spawn before the required upgrade.
