Wild Pokémon

How to read these tables

Morning is 4:00–9:59, day 10:00–19:59 and night 20:00–3:59 on the game clock; a table marked "any time" is the same all day. Swarms, Hoenn/Sinnoh Sound encounters, and special night-fishing replacements are not active in this hack and are excluded. "—" means the table stores no level or chance for that entry. The encounter rate is how often you meet wild Pokémon on that map (higher means more often).

These are the ordinary encounter tables. Calendar encounters can replace specific land slots. Visible spawns and capture-chain bonuses use additional rules; table weights are not shiny odds.

Gifts, trades and scripted encounters

• Scripted wild battle: Salamence (Lv. 60) — Route 34

  During the Goldenrod Gym chain, after Norman asks you to find Ruby, enter the north end of Route 34. One chance: catching it, knocking it out or fleeing removes it; only losing allows a retry.

  See Route 34: Ruby, Sapphire and the wild Salamence (part of the Goldenrod Gym chain)
• Gift: Totodile (Lv. 5) — Route 34

  After the Ilex Forest chapter, speak to the injured Route 34 dancer with a Potion, then visit the hidden southern grove. Choose “Strike a battle-command pose”; all other dance choices permanently lose Totodile. Defeat the two dancers, then accept with a free party slot.

  See Route 34: Totodile, the dance master (one chance)

Some of these depend on your starter, story progress or a choice. See the quests above.
