Below is a list of the areas that make up the two new Wild Areas found in Pokémon Sword and Shield. They're filled with strong wild Pokémon, many of which you won't have the power to catch until you have some Gym badges to your name. Some may appear only in certain weather conditions.
Each location below features a list of the Pokémon you'll find in that area; the italicised Pokémon are the ones that are not visible in the overworld and must be encountered randomly.
