Pokemon Go: Where can you find which Pokemon?

Pokemon Go: Find and catch Magikarp

In “Pokémon Go” you can find countless Pokémon. Where you can find which Pokémon also depends on the area in which you are searching.

Where to find Pokémon in “Pokémon Go” – the environment decides

In “Pokémon Go,” the environment determines which Pokémon you can find.

  • Pay attention to which biome your Pokémon belongs to. If you are looking for a water Pokémon, you should stay near water, as that is where you have the best chances. But ice Pokémon can also be found here. In forests, you are more likely to find plant and bug Pokémon, while in the city, in addition to normal Pokémon, there are also poison and dark Pokémon. Rock and ground Pokémon are also more common in the mountains.
  • But the weather must not be ignored either, because certain Pokémon seem to feel more comfortable in the rain, such as Bug-type Pokémon, but also Water- and Electric-type Pokémon.
  • On the other hand, if the weather is sunny, you can expect to see more grass and ground-type Pokémon. Fire-type Pokémon are also more common here.
  • In cloudy weather, Fairy and Poison Pokémon are just as comfortable as Fighting Pokémon. In windy weather, you can look for Dragon and Flying Pokémon, as well as Psychic Pokémon.
  • When it's snowing outside, Ice and Steel-type Pokémon are easy to find, while in foggy weather, Dark and Ghost-type Pokémon are more likely to be found.
