Pokémon Scarlet and Violet challenge players to shuffle their teams, especially when powerful wild Pokémon steamroll your party members. After all, it can be a lot easier to replace beginner and mid-game teammates than grind through levels until they’re stronger than their free-roaming counterparts. If you can’t beat them, join them — or get them to join you. What people consider late-game varies depending on what they consider the “end” of the game. For convenience’s sake, we’re using it to mean you’re on the last parts or perhaps already finished with the three story quests. These are six Pokémon that you should consider adding to your party by late-game.
