Rarity Guide

[Nightjay]

Hi all. I decided to compile this list of Pokemon rarity classifications based off Admin Red's rarity spawn dump. It's basically just all catchable land/water spawn Pokemon listed alongside their most common spawn tier, so as to ensure easier Ctrl + F searching. :)

 

There are 10 total rarity tiers (though only the first 9 are used in this guide):

1. ABUNDANT
   
2. COMMON
   
3. UNCOMMON
   
4. MEAGRE
   
5. OCCASIONAL
   
6. SCARCE
   
7. SPARSE
   
8. RARE
   
9. EXTREMELY RARE
   
10. LIMITED

 

From what I understand, there seem to be certain maps where a Pokemon is more likely to spawn, as Red's post shows some Pokemon having various rarity tiers listed (e.g. #11 Metapod has lines with both "Common" and "Uncommon," implying its spawn rate differs depending on the map). However, this will require further testing, since I'm not sure which lines of rarity correspond to which maps the Pokemon appears on.

 

Asterisks next to the Pokemon's name indicate that it's listed under multiple rarity tiers on Red's post. If there are multiple rarity tiers listed for one Pokemon, I'll defer to the lowest/least rare spawn tier it's listed under. If you see an asterisk next to the Pokemon you're searching for, you should still cross-reference it with Red's post, though - there are some Pokemon listed as "scarce* " that may also be "extremely rare" on other maps, for example.

Nice guide, easy to follow.

An updated guide like this has been needed for a while now, :thanks:

[Violalion]

Nice one Jay it looks great and it was really needed ! :Heart: :Smile:

[Kuroiryuu]

Nice work Jay. :y: About pokemons that have multiple rarity, I think Red's post is corresponding to the ingame Pokedex, which means, for example, Caterpie is Common on Route 2 and Abundant on the other places. Just my thought. :Cool:

[Obliternade]

Thanks for the updated guide, good job buddy. :thanks: :Smile:

[Nightjay]

Thanks y'all! :Heart:

Yeah, that was my original thought too, but I got confused because when I was cross-checking it, Tyrogue (#236) is listed five times under Red's spawn dump, whereas it has only four locations listed in the in-game Pokedex. And Ralts (#280) is listed as "Rare" on its first line and then "Sparse" on its second - but its Pokedex entry shows Route 102 first and Love Island second, and I would assume that Ralts would be more common at its Hoenn location rather than Love Island, considering the recent revamp on rare Hoenn Pokemon spawns. So I'm a bit confused about it. I'm glad someone else had the same idea, though!

Hope that we can get an answer from Red. If he let us use the spawn dump I think he would gladly give us some explaination about it :Ambivalent:

[Simond]

:Heart:

[Charismo]

Bookmarked. :Grin:

Thanks for your work. :Heart:

[Daihucovei]

Is it possible to add the spawn times?

Most places I visit are outdated. For example, lapras spawns during the morning/day while the guide I visited says it spawns at night in love island.

 

Also, while trying to get a Finneon in love island, I got 3 or 4 lapras during one morning/day. I have yet to get a Finneon. T_T

 

EDIT: I had to say something.... it spawned like 3min after writing this. Still it took a lot of time.
