Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet Zorua location

You can find Zorua in Tagtree Thicket and West Province Area Three. Like Ditto, Zorua disguises itself as other Pokemon that appear in the area, so you will not see it in the overworld. Zorua will reveal itself once it is engaged in battle, although there is fortunately a way to check if the Pokemon you are looking at is a Zorua without entering a battle with it. Locking onto a Pokemon that you have registered in the Pokedex with the ZL button will reveal that Pokemon’s name, so if you have already registered the Pokemon you are looking at into the Pokedex and it appears as “???” then it will be a Zorua. Once you have registered Zorua into your Pokedex, its name will be displayed instead of the Pokemon it appears to be.

As usual, another potential location for Zorua in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet are Tera Raid Battles, which will be marked on your map. New ones will appear as you clear them, and they will also change daily, so it is worth checking each one on your map to see if any of them contain Zorua. Zorua can be encountered in 3 star Tera Raid Battles.
