For this Pokemon Sword and Shield Cobalion guide, we will walk you through the necessary details related to a legendary Pokemon introduced in Crown Tundra's Cobalion DLC.
Pokemon Sword and Cobalion Shield
With the Crown Tundra DLC, loads of great new Pokemon are coming. Most special of all, however, have to be the Pokemon Swords of Justice that came with the expansion.
These legendaries are hidden and will need to be discovered through a painstaking process we like to call "monitoring".
How to catch Cobalion
After discovering your first footprints outside of Freezington in the Crown Tundra, you will find Sonia to further help you discover the rest.
While hunting Cobalion, Virizion, and Terrakion, you will need to find unique footprints for the specific Pokemon. After discovering a total of 50, Pokemon will spawn somewhere in the region.
Cobalion's footprints are detectable in the Frigid Sea, in the Roaring Sea Caves and in all areas that are close to these places.
After discovering a total of 50 footprints for Cobalion, it will spawn in the bed of giants area.
When you have discovered the required number of footprints, go to the inn and talk to Sonia to deliver the evidence. You will now be able to catch Cobalion.
There is no exact place where one of the legends could spawn, only a definite proximity.
You just have to grab a bike and take a little ride in the specific area (Frigid Sea for Cobalion) until you find the culprits.
