Larvesta

BugFire

Available for SV SWSH

Larvesta is a Bug/Fire-type Pokémon (National Dex #636) with a low stat total of 360. You can have one built for Scarlet & Violet and Sword & Shield, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.

Its best stat is Attack at 85, which makes it a balanced all-rounder. Attack outweighs Special Attack by a clear margin, so an Adamant or Jolly nature and a physical move set play to its strengths. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.

Defensively, Larvesta takes super-effective damage from Rock at 4×, and Water, Flying at 2×. It resists Grass, Ice, Fighting, Bug, Steel, Fairy. Its ability options are Flame Body, Swarm, and you choose which one your copy carries.

Larvesta evolves into Volcarona (59). You can order any stage directly rather than raising it — useful when you want the final evolution at a specific level, or the pre-evolution with an egg move it can only learn early.

In-game, Larvesta has 9 recorded encounter locations across Scarlet & Violet (4), Sword & Shield (5) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. A shiny Larvesta ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
