Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are a stark departure from what we've seen before in the world of Pokémon. For starters, there are now three main stories for players to complete, which can be challenged in any order you choose. "Victory Road" is your traditional Pokémon game route. Players should defeat the eight gym leaders before tackling the Elite Four and the Champion. However, it is still possible to challenge these gyms in any order you choose! The Path of Legends will have players facing off against huge Titan Pokémon to uncover the mystery of Herba Mystica. Finally, Starfall Street will pit trainers against the evil team of this game, Team Star.
While it is possible to challenge each Path and each individual fight in any order you choose, levels are not synched to your current progress. There is a defined order in which the developers intended you to go down. So, if you want to know the best order for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet's Treasure Hunt Paths, you've come to the right place. Let's find out!
Best Order For Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Treasure Hunt Paths
Here is the best order for what content from each Treasure Hunt Path to challenge. Again, this recommendation is based solely on the corresponding level of each enemy's highest level Pokémon. Feel free to challenge these Treasure Hunt Paths in whichever order you choose, or take on later gym battles to give yourself a challenge.
