To get all Vivillon Medals in Pokemon Go, you’ll need to collect postcards from different regions around the world. These postcards can be obtained by sending and receiving gifts from friends who are located in different regions. When you pin one of these to your scrapbook, you’ll trigger an encounter with a Scatterbug which can evolve into that region’s Vivillon Pattern. This way you can get Vivillion Medals from all over the world without ever leaving your home area.
How to get all Vivillon Medals in Pokemon Go
Getting all Vivillon Medals in Pokemon Go requires collecting Postcards from various regions. Vivillon, the Scale Pokemon, is known for its beautiful and diverse wing patterns, each representing a specific region of the world. To obtain these unique patterns, you’ll need to collect Scatterbugs, the evolutionary precursor of Vivillon. Scatterbug’s wing pattern is determined by the region from which it originates.
The 18 patterns are:
- Archipelago Pattern
- Continental Pattern
- Elegant Pattern
- Garden Pattern
- High Plains Pattern
- Icy Snow Pattern
- Jungle Pattern
- Marine Pattern
- Meadow Pattern
- Modern Pattern
- Monsoon Pattern
- Ocean Pattern
- Polar Pattern
- River Pattern
- Sandstorm Pattern
- Savanna Pattern
- Sun Pattern
- Tundra Pattern
Players can get Scatterbug from different regions via postcards, which are virtual gifts that can be sent and received from friends worldwide. To unlock Scatterbug encounters, you’ll need to pin postcards from different regions. Once you have a postcard from a particular region, you can pin it in your scrapbook to unlock the corresponding Vivillon pattern.
- Make friends with trainers from different regions: The key to completing the Vivillon Collector Medal is to connect with trainers from all over the world. You can do this by joining online communities, such as the Pokemon Go subreddit or Discord servers, leaving your friend code on dedicated websites, or by attending local Pokemon Go events.
- Send and receive gifts: Once you’ve made friends with trainers from different regions, start sending them gifts. When you send a gift, you’ll have a chance of receiving a Postcard from the region where your friend is located.
- Pin Postcards: Once you receive a Postcard, pin it to your profile. This will unlock the corresponding Vivillon pattern and add progress to the Vivillon Collector Medal.
- Evolve Scatterbug: Once you’ve pinned a postcard from a particular region, you’ll encounter a Scatterbug that correspond to that region’s pattern. You can evolve this Scatterbug into a Vivillon with the corresponding pattern.
- Repeat for all regions: Each sub-medal tracks your progress towards obtaining Vivillon of a specific pattern. Continue collecting Postcards from different regions and evolving Scatterbug until you’ve unlocked all 18 Vivillon patterns. Once you’ve done this, you’ll earn the Platinum Vivillon Collector Medal!
