Where to Find Roaring Moon in Pokémon Scarlet And Violet
To find Roaring Moon, players must go to the Great Crater of Paldea (Area Zero). This location can only be unlocked after defeating all 5 Titan bosses in the main story. If trainers have done, they will need to go to the Poco Path Lighthouse in South Province (Area One) as there will be a cutscene and a fight.
Afterward, players can access the route going to the Great Crater of Paldea from the northwest side through the West Province (Area Three) where there is a purple color section on the map. Complete the final ending of the story in the Crater and players will be able to unlock Koraidon for combat use.
After finishing the story, Roaring Moon Pokémon will spawn, and finding it will be no problem around Area Zero. Head to the research lab and teleport your way to Research Station No. 3 as that location will be where Roaring Moon will spawn the most.
