Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Orange Stakes

Orange Stake Locations In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Orange Stake #1

(1 of 2) Head to South Province Area Six and where the flag icon is

Head to South Province Area Six and where the flag icon is (left), the stake can be found on top of the cliff here. (right)

Starting your search at the bottom of the Paldea region, head to South Province (Area Six) and head to this location on the map. You’ll find the stake nestled on the little lip of the large cliff overlooking the river.

Orange Stake #2

(1 of 2) Head to the flag icon for orange stake 2

Head to the flag icon for orange stake 2 (left), this stake is high on a cliff. (right)

Staying in South Province (Area Six), head along the clifftops northeast from Alfornada and you’ll find this stake high on a cliff ledge.

Orange Stake #3

(1 of 2) You will need to head west of the flag icon to find the cave entrance

You will need to head west of the flag icon to find the cave entrance (left), orange stake 3 can be found in the center of this tunnel. (right)

This Orange Stake is close to the previous one but can be tricky to find. Drop down to the ground around here and you’ll find a cave just to the west of the marker. Head inside and you’ll find the stake around the center of this tunnel.

Orange Stake #4

(1 of 2) Head to this flag icon north from the previous one

Head to this flag icon north from the previous one (left), orange stake 4 can be found on the cliffside ledge. (right)

Still in West Province (Area One), this next Stake location is back to the top of a cliff. Climb helps here as you can climb the nearest cliff and head north along it to reach the stake on a cliffside ledge.

Orange Stake #5

(1 of 2) The next flag icon points to a crater northwest of the pokemon center

The next flag icon points to a crater northwest of the pokemon center (left), leap down to the grassy plateau to find this orange stake. (right)

Fast Travel to the Pokemon Center at West Province (Area One) - Central and head along the path leading north. Before the bridge, head west and look over the edge of the cliff to spot a crater. The stake can be found inside the crater on a little grass mound surrounded by a moat of water.

Orange Stake #6

(1 of 2) Head to the next flag icon found east of the Watchtower

Head to the next flag icon found east of the Watchtower (left), the orange stake is overlooking the nearby ruins. (right)

Head to the Watchtower in West Province (Area One) and you’ll find yourself at some ruins. Look to the east and you’ll find this stake on top of the grass ledge overlooking the nearby ruins.

Orange Stake #7

(1 of 2) The next flag icon is situated at the cliffs east of the previous stake

The next flag icon is situated at the cliffs east of the previous stake (left), look in the nook between two cliffs for this orange stake. (right)

This is probably the toughest stake to find, and once again it’s up on the cliffs again. Head east from the previous stake to this location on the map and look inside the nook between the cliffs near to where the Pokémon League is on the map.

Orange Stake #8

(1 of 2) the final icon is right outside Cascarrafa

the final icon is right outside Cascarrafa (left), the final orange stake can be found south of the town by a tree. (right)

The final orange stake is by far the easiest of the lot. Head to Cascarrafa and go to the outskirts of the town to the south, you’ll find the orange stake sitting by a tree.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Orange Shrine Gate

(1 of 2) Head to this flag icon once you have pulled out all 8 stakes

Head to this flag icon once you have pulled out all 8 stakes (left), you will find the Shrine Gate here where Chien-Pao awaits. (right)

Once you pull up the eighth and final stake, a message will trigger, letting you know something has stirred and you will automatically face the direction of the shrine itself.

If you return to where you found Orange Stake #5 (the one in the crater), head northwest and you’ll find the Orange Shrine Gate along the edge of a cliff. Make sure you’re prepared before going in, however, a battle with Chien-Pao, a Level 60 Ruin Legendary Pokémon awaits.
