Pokémon Go Gen 8: A Comprehensive Guide to the Galar Region's Pokémon

Eighty-nine new Pokémon from Generation 8 (Gen 8) are gradually being introduced into Pokémon Go, hailing from the Galar region inspired by the British Isles. Unlike previous generations, many Gen 8 Pokémon, such as Perrserker and Sirfetch’d, arrived in Pokémon Go before the generation's official launch. These Pokémon debuted alongside the release of Pokémon Sword and Shield for the Nintendo Switch, with additional creatures added via the DLC expansions, The Isle of Armor and The Crown Tundra. Gen 8 features a blend of original Pokémon and Galarian variants—new forms of existing Pokémon.

This guide covers:

Currently Available Gen 8 Pokémon in Pokémon Go

While the majority of Gen 8 Pokémon are being released in phases, several, including Sirfetch’d and Runerigus, are already obtainable. Many are evolved forms of Galarian Pokémon from earlier generations; for example, Galarian Meowth evolves into Perrserker. Therefore, acquiring the specific Galarian form is crucial.

Key Facts about Gen 8 Pokémon

Gen 8 introduces unique evolution methods, from spinning your avatar (for Milcery's evolution) to using special items (for Sinistea). Alcremie boasts 70 forms, the most of any Pokémon. Dynamax and Gigantamax abilities also debut, altering Pokémon appearances. Like Gen 7's Alolan forms, Gen 8 features Galarian variants, many evolving into new Gen 8 Pokémon (e.g., Galarian Linoone evolving into Obstagoon). Many Gen 8 Pokémon, including Duraludon and Appletun, draw inspiration from British culture. Interestingly, Gen 8 is the first generation without a Normal/Flying-type Pokémon, and its fossil Pokémon require combining two fossils for revival.
