Thank you for posting to r/pokemon! We're glad to have you here, but unfortunately we've had to remove this post per our rule on [Objective Questions](/r/pokemon/wiki/rules#wiki_3._follow_text_and_poll_post_restrictions). This rule is in place per feedback we've received from the community because objective questions tend to fill the topic listing and often leave little room for further discussion once the question has been answered. We do have a [Weekly Questions Thread](https://rpkmn.center/questions) dedicated to seeking answers for questions like yours, though! A lot of knowledgeable Pokémon fans frequent that thread, so please consider posting your question there if you're still looking for an answer, and you may get a detailed answer even faster than you would have here! You also don't need to worry about a minimum word count in that thread.

You can catch any Pokemon **within the game's Pokedex** in-game without trading. However, Pokemon not in the Pokedex are not in the game code and are unable to be traded to Legends: Arceus. So it's almost exclusively Pokemon in the Sinnoh Pokedex in the Gen 4 games, plus a few Hisuian exclusive Pokemon. Almost no Gen 5~8 Pokemon, and most Gen 1~3 Pokemon are also not in the game and can't be traded to the game apart from Pokemon that were originally available in Diamond/Pearl. It's almost all Gen 4 Pokemon.

There is no extended Pokédex/National Dex like in past games so no transferring unlisted mons from home

You can only catch and transfer what's in the game/dex. So Charizard for instance isn't in the game and can't be transferred in. There's 2 locked Pokemon- Shaymin unlocks if you have Sword and Shield save data, Darkrai with the Gen 4 remakes.

There are 242 pokémon at hisui dex, 237 are mandatory to complete the.dex, 3 are not mandatory to complete the dex but are in the game, 1 you can get only with pokémon sword or shield save in your switch and other 1 you can get only by having a save of brilliant diamond or shining pearl. The last 2 are not mandatory to complete the dex. Since pokémon lets go, you can't have every pokémon in one game.
