Appearance
Fernwake Woods
The forest north of the hamlet has the most variety in the valley. Patches of tall grass sit on both sides of the stream.
Caterpie #010
Bug
Munches leaves from dawn to dusk. Often found dozing on the garden fence.
Metapod #011
Bug
Waits very, very patiently. Inside its shell, something wonderful is taking shape.
Pidgey #016
Normal
Kicks up little gusts to flush out seeds. The hamlet's early-morning alarm clock.
Rattata #019
Normal
Scurries everywhere at top speed. Has nibbled at least one of every crate in the hamlet.
Pikachu #025
Electric
Gathers in the old forest during storms. Its cheeks crackle softly when it's pleased to see you.
Vulpix #037
Fire
Only seen in the golden hour. Its curled tails glow like the last of the sunset.
Oddish #043
Grass Poison
Plants itself in the soil by day and goes wandering at night. Gardeners leave it a little space.
Venonat #048
Bug Poison
Drawn to lantern light after dark. Its big eyes can spot a moving leaf from across the woods.
Geodude #074
Rock Ground
Easy to mistake for a rock on the path. Please look before you sit down.
Eevee #133
Normal
Curious about everything and shy about everyone. Its future holds many possible paths.
Hoothoot #163
Normal
Hoots on the same beat every night. The hamlet sets its clocks by it.
Wooper #194
Water Ground
Waddles out to play the moment rain starts falling. Always smiling. Nobody knows why.
Encounter odds
The chance that a wild Pokémon is each species, once an encounter starts. Wild Pokémon only appear in tall grass; see Wild encounters for how often.

Tips
- Vulpix only appears at dusk, 5:00 to 7:30 PM, and also at dawn from 5:00 to 6:00 AM.
- Eevee is rare and only appears by day. Its catch rate is low, so bring Great Balls and a Sunberry, its favorite.
- Oddish goes wandering at night only. Hoothoot wakes at dusk.
- Metapod appears in the wild here too, already Lv 7 to 9, so only one to three levels away from evolving into Butterfree at Lv 10.
- Pikachu can appear at any hour.
