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 Friday. 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 Numel in the wild

Location	Method / conditions	Level	Chance
Pal Park, Fixed Catch mode: Wednesday	Grass/cave, any time	20	4%
Pal Park, Fixed Catch mode: Friday	Grass/cave, any time	20	5%
Victory Road	Grass/cave, any time	44	5%

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).
