Wandering Pokémon

Farms with at least one fully ripe Berry can attract Wandering Pokémon that are automatically caught without the use of a Pokéball. Which Wandering Pokémon is attracted is based on Berry type and the farthest region you have progressed to, with all valid options having an equal chance to be encountered.

Some Berries attract rare Pokémon that can be used strategically to complete a region's Pokédex.

Wandering Pokémon also have a Base 1/1024 chance to be shiny. Attracting a shiny Wandering Pokémon when there is at least one open plot on the Farm plants a Starf Berry in that open plot.

The base chance to encounter a Wandering Pokémon is 1/2000 every 1.5 seconds for every fully ripe Berry. Roseli Berries have an Attract Aura that can multiplicatively increase this chance for all currently grown Berries on the Farm. Below are some examples illustrating how to improve your odds of encountering Wandering Pokémon.


 * Example 1: You have 1 fully grown Cheri.png Berry when your highest region is Johto.
 * - Every 1.5 seconds, you have a 1/2000 or 0.05% chance of encountering a Tangela.pngla, Scyther.pnger, Pineco.pngo, or Heracross.pngross.


 * Example 2: You have 25 fully grown Cheri.png Berries when your highest region is Johto.
 * - Every 1.5 seconds, you have a 1/80 or 1.25% chance of encountering a Tangela.pngla, Scyther.pnger, Pineco.pngo, or Heracross.pngross.


 * Example 3: You have 25 fully grown Liechi.png Liechi Berries when your highest region is Sinnoh.
 * - Every 1.5 seconds, you have a 1/80 or 1.25% chance of encountering a Tangela.pngla, Scyther.pnger, Pineco.pngo, Heracross.pngross, Volbeat.pngat, Illumise.pngise, Burmy.png (plant), Combee.pnge, Cherubi.pngbi, Munchlax.pnglax, or Manaphy.pnghy.


 * Example 4: You have a fully grown Roseli + Lum Setup for Starf Berry when your highest region is Hoenn.
 * - Every 1.5 seconds on the 20 Roseli.pngi plots, you have a ~3.26% chance of encountering a Tangela.pngla, Scyther.pnger, Pineco.pngo, Heracross.pngross, Volbeat.pngat, Illumise.pngise, or Togepi.pngi.
 * - Every 1.5 seconds on the 4 Lum.png Lum plots, you have a ~0.65% chance of encountering a Tangela.pngla, Scyther.pnger, Pineco.pngo, Heracross.pngross, Volbeat.pngat, or Illumise.pngise.
 * - In total, this means you have a ~3.91% chance of encountering a Wandering Pokémon every 1.5 second interval.
