In this guide, you will be able to learn everything you need to know about how to get Poochyena and Mightyena in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet The Teal Mask.
How to Get Poochyena in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Teal Mask
In the world of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: The Teal Mask, Poochyena, a dog-like dark-type Pokemon, is one of the earliest returning monsters. Players can encounter Poochyena right after commencing their adventure. In the DLC, Poochyena has the potential to evolve into Mightyena at Level 18.
Explorers commonly spot Poochyenas in abundance throughout the Kitakami region. These creatures are spread all over, but it’s recommended to focus your search on specific areas, like,
- Apple Fields
- Wistful Fields
- Kitakami Bus stop
- Massoui Town
Poochyena is weak to fighting bugs and fairy-type Pokemon. At the same time, it resists dark-type and ghost-type Pokemon. And also immune to psychic-type Pokemon. Poochyena has special abilities as,
- Run Away
- Quick Feet
- Rattled
Run away ability allows the escape from wild Pokemon, but the user cannot switch under the effects of Mean Look or Block.
Quick feet will increase the user’s speed by 50% when the status condition affects the user. This will help to ignore the speed drop from Paralyzed status condition.
The Rattled feature, a hidden feature, will allow the user to increase the speed by one stage if the user is hit by a Bug-type, Ghost-type, or Dark-type Pokemon, which are the Pokemon Poochyena resist and weak against.

How to Find Mightyena in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Teal Mask
The best way to catch a Mightyena is to catch a Poochyena and evolve into a Mightyena at level 18. But trainers are eager to get their hands straight on the evolved version, Mightyena.
But for those trainers who like to be a bit more adventurous, you can also find Mightyena in the wild. Wild Mightyena is more common in the remote areas of Wistful Fields. So, if you want to get the Wild Mightyena, we recommend looking in the area.
