Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl lets you encounter rare Pokemon in Hideaways. Here is a list of every Pokemon you can find in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl’s Grand Underground.

With the Hideaways feature, BDSP allows Trainers to catch Platinum ‘mon early into the game. So, those disappointed in not being able to get Houndoom are in luck, as you can catch the Fire-type and many more.

The remake also transformed Diamond & Pearl’s Underground feature into the Grand Underground. Here is a full list of every Grand Underground Pokemon.
