As in the case with every game in the series, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s starters are of great importance in your quest to catch-’em-all. With three to choose from out of the same old spread of a water type, the duck, a fire type, the croc, and the grass type kitty-cat, there’s something for everyone. So, if you need help deciding which Pokémon Scarlet and Violet starter evolutions to aim for we’re here to help.

With that out the way, let’s take a first look at the Pokémon Scarlet & Violet starters and starter evolutions.
Pokémon Scarlet & Violet starters
Sprigatito
Sprigatito, the grass-type cat Pokémon, is our new favourite forest-dwelling feline. Described officially as “the capricious, attention-seeking grass cat Pokémon”, this little sweetheart is already a fan-favourite.
Fuecoco
We’ve had water and ground-type croc Pokémon before, but we have a first for the fire-type in Fuecoco. With its cheeky demeanour and a smile on its face, it’s no wonder that plenty of the Pocket Tactics team picked this grinning gator.
Quaxly
The water-type starter on the bill is Quaxly, the duckling Pokémon. Quaxly is the only new Pokémon to come with his own hat. It might be a little more stuck-up than the alternatives, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a great partner.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s starter evolutions
If you can’t decide on which of the three to go for without knowing the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet starter evolutions, don’t worry, we’ve got your back there too. Below you can find all three starters and their evolutions, with a little bit about how much you need to level before fully evolving.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Sprigatito evolutions
This cute kitty evolves into Floragato at level 16, before finally turning into the grass/dark-type Meowscarada at level 36.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Fuecoco evolution
Transforming into Crocalor at level 16, before finally evolving into Skeledirge at level 36, this red hot ‘mon is a fire/ghost type in waiting with a bunch of killer moves.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Quaxly evolution
Quaxly first becomes Quaxwell at level 16 and then evolves into Quaquaval, a split water/fighting type, at level 36.
