Appearance
Mosslight Hamlet
Your home village has tall grass in each corner. The Pokémon here are low level, easy to catch, and good for your first battles.
Caterpie #010
Bug
Munches leaves from dawn to dusk. Often found dozing on the garden fence.
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.
Venonat #048
Bug Poison
Drawn to lantern light after dark. Its big eyes can spot a moving leaf from across the woods.
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
- Caterpie and Pidgey only appear by day and at dusk. Venonat takes over the night, drawn to the lamplight.
- Wooper only come out in the rain. Tomo can tell you when rain is on the way.
- Caterpie evolves fast: into Metapod at Lv 7, then Butterfree at Lv 10.
