Many beloved Gen 7 critters returned for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, including Mimikyu, Bruxish, Tsareena, and the Mudbray line. This adorable and simple Pokemon line based on draft horses is the epitome of a great Ground-type design, with legs fortified by mud that are strong enough to reduce a large truck to scrap with just one kick. Mudsdale in particular makes a tremendous Stealth Rock setter in competitive doubles, with great physical bulk and impressive Stamina ability to boot. Here's how to catch Mudbray and Mudsdale in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.

  • South Province (Area Two)
  • South Province (Area Four)
  • South Province (Area Six)
  • South Province (Area Five)
  • West Province (Area One)

  • South Province (Area Two)
  • South Province (Area Four)
  • South Province (Area Six)
  • South Province (Area Five)
  • West Province (Area One)
