Pokemon Scarlet & Violetdo things a little differently than their predecessors. As well as having three main storylines for players to follow rather than the usual one, the games also allow players to tackle bosses and gym leaders in whatever order they like. As there’s no level scaling though, there’s still abest order for getting all of the badgesdespite this newfound level of freedom.

SomePokemon Scarlet & Violetplayers may opt to tackle all three storylines separately; first becoming Pokemon Champion before then circling back to take down the Titans and Team Star Bosses. However, doing it this way will likely lead to players being massively over-leveled for the latter two storylines, so it’s arguably better to tackle all three storylines simultaneously so as to keep things interesting.

After obtaining all eighteen badges inPokemon Scarlet & Violet, players will still have a bit of work to do if they want to complete all three of the main storylines. Unlike with previous battles, the opponents they face at this stage of the game will no longer specialize in a single type of Pokemon. However, the levels of their teams do gradually trend upward, meaning that there is once again an optimal order for taking on the last few battles of Victory Road, Path of Legends, andStarfall Street.
