There are a total of five Titans in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, Pokémon grown to enormous size thanks to the power of Herba Mystica. They are encountered during the Path Of Legends, one of Scarlet and Violet’s multiple storylines. But while Scarlet and Violet are technically open-world games, there is still an ideal order to fight the Titans in.
The beginning of the Path Of Legends is clearly signposted for the player by Arven, who urges the player to follow him eastwards out of Mesagoza. This points players in the direction of a low-level encounter ideal for learning the basics of a Titan battle. However, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s structure poses a problem for more explorative players, as the Titans all have fixed but hidden levels in their initial encounters. This can make any subsequent Titan anything from disappointingly weak to overwhelmingly difficult depending on when they are battled, making planning ahead critical.
Scarlet and Violet’s Titan Pokémon, Weakest To Strongest
The Stony Cliff Titan Klawf is undoubtedly the easiest Titan Pokémon to battle in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, as indicated by Arven and the fact it can later be caught at a humble level 16. Following from Klwaf, the next strongest Titan is the Open Sky Titan, Bombirdier, located in western Paldea at Level 20. The Lurking Steel Titan follows at level 26, the Quaking Earth Titan at level 45, and finally, the False Dragon Titan duo offers the player battles at levels 56 (Dodonzo) and 57 (Tatsugiri). This order for the Titans, from weakest to strongest, takes players all over Scarlet and Violet’s open world on a long and winding route.
Titan Pokémon | Level |
|---|---|
Klawf, the Stony Cliff Titan | 16 |
Bombirdier, the Open Sky Titan | 20 |
Orthworm, the Lurking Steel Titan | 29 |
Great Tusk/Iron Treads, the Quaking Earth Titan | 45 |
Dondozo and Tatsugiri, the False Dragon Titan | 56 and 57, respectively |
Pokémon Scarlet & Violet’s Herba Mystica Work Logically In The Right Order
In addition to giving the Titans a scaling threat for players to contend with, this order also creates a logical progression for the Herba Mystica. While they slowly heal Arven’s Mabosstiff, the potent herbs also empower Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s ridable Legendaries. Following the optimal path for the Titans likewise places these mobility upgrades in a logical order, beginning with a simple dash and ending with climbing cliffs. The Legendary also gains a powerful jump, followed by its gliding ability. This progression emphasizes the theme of strengthening and recovery paralleled by Mabosstiff. Although the Herba Mystica are remarkably unbalanced when used for sandwiches, the story they enable is quite poignant.
Despite Scarlet and Violet professing to enable an open-world adventure, the fact remains that every Trainer and Titan the player battles maintains a static level. Although this may lessen the appeal of free-roaming for some, it also means that players can chart an optimized route through Paldea. Ideally, of course, the Titans will be battled in conjunction with Gym Leaders and Team Star, although this can create a remarkably convoluted path. Nevertheless, the best order to take on the Titans is clear, both in terms of challenge and in contributing to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s incredible stories.
