Where to Get Gen 1-4 Starter Pokémon in Pokémon BDSP
You can get all starter Pokémon in both Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl on the Grand Underground, across many areas, and only after defeating the Elite Four and getting the National Pokédex. You can get the National Pokédex by visiting Professor Rowan on Sandgem Town after completing your Sinnoh Pokédex.
With that out of the way, you can find Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Treecko, and Turtwig in Grassland Cave, Riverbank Cave, Still-Water Cavern, and in Sunlit Cavern. Squirtle, Totodile, Mudkip, and Piplup can be found in Fountainspring Cave, Riverbank Cave, and in Still-Water Cavern. The Fire-type starters, Charmander, Cyndaquil, Torchic, and Chimchar can all be found in Volcanic Cave, Typhlo Cavern, and in Sandsear Cave.
To recap, here’s where you can catch all the starter Pokémon available in both Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl:
- Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Treecko, and Turtwig: Can be found on Grassland Cave, Riverbank Cave, Still-Water Cavern, and Sunlit Cavern.
