Charizard has long been one of the best-loved Pokémon from Gen I, and while you won't be able to find this Pokémon anywhere in the wild, you will be able to catch it for a limited time during the games' first Black Crystal Tera Raids. These seven-star raids are available for a limited time at various black crystals scattered throughout the Paldea region.

Charizard will be available to eligible players in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet from Dec. 1 at 4 p.m to Dec. 4 at 3:59 p.m. PST, and then again from Dec. 15 at 4 p.m. to Dec. 18 at 3:59 p.m. PST. The Pokémon Company has made it clear this may not be the last time Charizard will appear in Scarlet and Violet, though this is trainers' first opportunity to catch one.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are now available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.
