Where to find it

  • Scripted encounter (Lv. 10): Pal Park — standing Pokémon.

    After the Cianwood Gym story opens the Resort Zone, enter Pal Park’s Fixed Catch mode for $10,000 with room for six more Pokémon in the PC. This standing Pokémon appears on Wednesday, or Monday 07:00–18:59. Bring your own Poké Balls.

Chance per encounter, under the conditions shown.

Times and conditions
  • Morning: 4:00–9:59
  • Day: 10:00–19:59
  • Night: 20:00–3:59

Calendar encounters can replace a land slot on specific dates.

Where to find Mawile in the wild
LocationMethod / conditionsLevelChance
Pokémon Tower, upper floors, 235%
Pal Park, Fixed Catch mode: Monday, 2010%
Pal Park, Fixed Catch mode: Wednesday, 2010%

Pal Park: The wild table changes with the day of the week (by the DS clock). You get in through the Catching Show's Fixed Catch mode at the Pal Park reception ($10,000; bring your own Poké Balls). Sunday's table is the same as Cerulean Cave's, probably by mistake in the hack, so it also has Surf and fishing slots: the park has a pond and a stretch of sea.

See the quest guide: Resort Zone: the Pal Park's Fixed Catch mode (wild Pokémon by weekday).
