Where to find Morpeko in Pokemon Sword and Shield
You can find Morpeko on Route 7. It's a rare generation with only a 5% chance, but luckily it's an overworld generation, so no chasing exclamation points to get it.
Just head to Route 7 and then travel up and down the route. If you've been waiting for a long time and don't see one, go to a nearby destination and then go back to reset the spawns. It should spawn at around level 30 or so, and due to the rarity, this could be a great time to use False Swipe. When you see the Pokemon, move into engagement range to fight it. Make sure you don't knock him out and throw a Pokeball to catch him. You should now be able to add this new Pokemon to your Pokedex and get one step closer to completion.
