How to Find a Lovey-Dovey Pokemon in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

If you wandered to the back of the Community Center in Moussi Town, you’ve seen the Lovey-Dovey Couple who are soooo in love. Speak to them, and they’ll challenge you to find a Pokemon that rivals their affection and is always together.

Fortunately, that Pokemon is very easy to find. The Lovey-Dovey Pokemon you’ll need to bring them is Tandemaus, and it can be found pretty much everywhere. But spotting it can be difficult, as it’s very tiny!

I personally found my Tandemaus in the Wistful Fields. But you can also find Tandemaus in Paldea.

Bring the Tandemaus, and they’ll be astounded. And your reward for bringing them this Pokemon? The Heart Pose (Right) and Heart Post (Left).

How to Use Poses in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

To use poses in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, you must press the ‘up’ button on your d-pad. This will bring up all your collected poses, including both ‘Heart’ poses. Of course, the pose is much cuter if you have someone to make it with. Otherwise, it just feels hurtful.

If you’re up for some other couple or team-based activities, why not do a round of Ogre Oustin’? It might be your way to get a free Shiny Munchlax.
