Each time a postcard is sent, wild {{p|Vivillon}}'s pattern will change depending on the location where the Postcard came from. This effect lasts 24 hours in real-time, after which the pattern of wild Vivillon will be reset, and the player will be able to receive another Postcard.

Only Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Paldea Pokédex number|Paldea Pokédex]] and a [[List of Pokémon by Paldea Pokédex number#Compatible Pokémon not in any Paldea Pokédex|select few]] "foreign" Pokémon can be transferred to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Patches are set to be released with each iteration of the [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]] DLC which will increase the number of Pokémon that can be transfered in Scarlet and Violet and those Pokémon will also be compatible with the base game even if the player has not purchased the DLC. All [[regional form]]s of compatible Pokémon and their respective regional evolved forms are also compatible.

When a compatible Pokémon from another game first enters these sets of games, its moveset is changed to its four most recent level-up moves by default (though the player can make alterations). Additionally, any compatible Pokémon brought from {{g|Legends: Arceus}} will be shown in a [[Strange Ball]] due to their invalid Poké Ball IDs not being otherwise recognised in these games.

{{main|List of moves by availability (Generation IX)}}
In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, many moves, including {{cat|Moves usable in Pokémon Sword and Shield|those that are usable in Sword and Shield}}, are no longer usable. Pokémon do not normally learn these moves in the game. In lieu of their usual descriptions, most of these moves instead have the following generic description: "''This move can't be used. It's recommended that this move is forgotten. Once forgotten, this move can't be remembered.''"
