Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Stake Locations Walkthrough
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has introduced a brand new mechanic to capture Pokemon. Instead of capturing legendary Pokemon while roaming around the map, you can capture them by using the Stake and Shrine mechanism.
Shrines are basically the locations where these legendary Pokemon are hidden. By using Stakes as keys, you can unlock these shrines and get a golden opportunity to make these awesome Pokemon yours.
Each Stake is color-coordinated, even though it’s mentioned that it’s black. There are four colors of these Stakes, namely, purple, yellow, green, and blue.
