Pokemon Sword and Shield: How to catch the Swords of Justice

Catching Virizion

While Cobalion is the defacto leader, Virizion is the heart of the Swords of Justice and is one of the trickier ones to track down as she’s the only one not confined to a small island or cave. Head on down to the Giant’s Bed and start looking. The easiest way is to stay away from the ruins and keep to the wide-open areas. Whenever I got close to the ruins I kept accidentally running into the small Pokemon there.

Just like with Cobalion, once you have enough footprints, head on back to Sonia to let her scan it and then head on out again to the Giant’s Bed. The easiest way is to start at the Giant’s Bed temple and then head straight out from the stairs. You’ll see a path through the small mountains to the right. Head through those and then head left and you can’t miss it. It’s near a tree right after a grassy field, which makes sense as she’s Grass/Fighting-type.

Just like the other Swords of Justice, she really likes Close Combat so brace yourself for that. She also has Leaf Sword though so watch out and make sure you don’t bring a water type lest she split it in twain. Afterward, head back to Sonia’s and warm yourself up cause we’re going after Terrakion next.
