According to the initial Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Indigo Disk leaks shared bypokeos.com, 25 static Legendary encounters are coming in the new DLC. There is a caveat that the currently published list is “subject to change” of course.

CentroLeaks, which offers trusted Pokemon leak information, has given additional context claiming their Shiny variants will be available. With the list currently given, this will be the first time that certain Shiny Legendary Pokemon will be available outside of Mystery Gifts or more spurious means.

In the case of Generation 8’s DLC Legendaries, Spectrier, Glastrier, and Kubfu will be officially Shiny for the first time. Previously, the only way to obtain Shiny forms of these Pokemon was via hacking.

According to the initial leaks, these Legendary Pokemon returning to Pokemon Scarlet & Violet may be obtainable via Tera Raids. The inclusion of Tera-types to certain Pokemon could lead to some interesting competitive shenanigans.

The addition of all these Legendaries should be exciting to any Pokemon trainer. However, the opportunity to catch their Shiny counterparts is probably of the most interest to dedicated Shiny hunters.

Of course, leaks should always be taken with a grain of salt as some or all of the information could be incorrect. Although, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet data mines have been pretty spot-on so far.
