How to Get BP in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Indigo Disk

BP is a currency you receive after finishing Blueberry Quests or BBQs, which are objectives you unlock shortly after starting the Indigo Disk DLC. After visiting the Terrarium and completing your first class, you’ll officially access your first quest, leading you into the introduction of BBQs and BP.

From here, you’ll unlock two types of Blueberry Quests: ones you complete solo and those you finish with other players as Union Circle tasks. You can view your list of BBQs at any point by pressing right on your controller or Joycon’s D-Pad.

The types of quests you’ll find in this list range from defeating wild Pokemon in autobattles to sneaking up on Pokemon and initiating surprise battles. You can also encounter Union Circle quests that reward more BP, such as finding Ditto blocks.

If you want to get BP quicker, playing in a group is the way to go. Each time one of you completes a quest, you’ll all gain the BP for that task. In other words, you can finish BBQs much quicker in groups and still get the same BP you would solo, making farming this currency easier if you’re playing with others. Even one more person can make a big difference!

Grouping up also gives you access to multiplayer-exclusive quests that can net you up to 600 BP. Compared to regular tasks that give around 10-30, this is a huge upgrade that can help you get thousands of BP in no time.

How to Use BP in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Indigo Disk

As you start collecting BP, you can use it to purchase items, upgrade your Terrarium, and progress through the League Club, among other things. Many features of Indigo Disk require using BP, and you’ll need this currency to advance through the story.

As a bonus, you can access the Blueberry Academy school shop, which sells valuable evolution items for BP. If you recently encountered a Pokemon whose evolution requires holding a specific item, a quick visit to this store may be just what you need.
