Pokémon go regionale pokemon: All regional Pokémon and locations

All regional Pokémon and locations

January 5, 2022 11:56 am ET

Regional Pokémon are a thorn in the side of all monster collectors in Pokémon GO – this guide shows you where you can find all the hidden creatures in 2022.

The Pokédex is an ever-expanding compendium of all existing pocket monsters – filling it is the end goal and ambition of every trainer in Pokémon GO, as in all the mainline games of the series. In the main games, there are version-exclusive Pokémon that can only be obtained by trading with the owner of the other edition. In Pokémon GO there is a different restriction – a regional one.

If there are no wild kangaroos in Germany, why should it be any different with Kangaskhan? At the same time, you can hardly expect a monster named Tropius to actually live in Northern Europe. In short, some Pokémon only exist in certain regions of the world – these are called regional Pokémon.

To catch them, you either have to travel to these places yourself or trade with someone who has visited them. Sometimes events remove the regional restriction and the exclusive Pokémon appear worldwide in raids or eggs, but this rarely happens.

Currently, there are a total of 36 regional Pokémon in Pokémon GO – here are all their locations.

Gen 1 Pokémon

• Kangaskhan: Australia
• Mr. Mime & Mime Jr.: Europe
• Farfetch’d: East Asia
• Tauros: North America – most of the U.S., southern Canada, and northern Mexico

Gen 2 Pokémon

• Corsola: coasts along the equator – 31° North to 26° South
• Heracross: Central and South America – from Texas and southern Florida to Cape Hoorn

Gen 3 Pokémon

• Illumise: Americas and Africa
• Lunatone: Americas and Africa
• Torkoal: Asia and India – from Iran in the West to Vietnam in the East
• Relicanth: New Zealand
• Zangoose: Europe, Asia, and Australia
• Solrock: Europe, Asia, and Australia
• Tropius: Africa and Middle East – the northernmost sightings come from southern Spain

Gen 4 Pokémon

• Pachirisu: Alaska, Canada, Eastern Russia
• Chatot: Southern Hemisphere
• Carnivine: Southeastern U. S.
• Shellos (Western Coast): Western Hemisphere
• Shellos (Eastern Coast): Eastern Hemisphere
• Uxie: Americas
• Azelf: East Asia and Australia
• Mesprit: Europe, Middle East, India, and Africa

Gen 5 Pokémon

• Basculin (blue pattern): Western Hemisphere
• Bascules (red pattern): Eastern Hemisphere
• Bouffalant: New York, Boston, and Philadelphia area
• Durant: Western Hemisphere
• Heatmor: Eastern Hemisphere
• Pansear: Europe, Middle East, India, and Africa
• Throh: Western Hemisphere
• Sawk: Eastern Hemisphere
• Maractus: Central and South America – from Texas and southern Florida to Cape Hoorn
• Panpour: Americas
• Sigilyph: Egypt, Greece, and Israel
• Pansage: East Asia and Australia

Gen 6 Pokémon

• Klefki: France – the northernmost sightings come from southern England

The Gen 2 regional Pokémon should be available worldwide in 2022 as part of the Pokémon GO Tour: Johto in February, plus the annual Pokémon GO Fest always results in global location changes. Otherwise, don’t ask friends and acquaintances for a postcard or a souvenir from their next vacation – download Pokémon GO onto their smartphone and send them on the hunt.

Pokémon Go: All the Regional Exclusives and where to find them

(Image credit: Niantic)

From the very beginning, the goal of Pokémon Go has been to get you to get up and go. Around the neighborhood, sure, but also around the world. That’s where regional exclusive Pokémon come in. Even when these Pokémon appear in eggs, they can still only be found in their specific regions. Fortunately, we here at iMore know where to find all the regional exclusive Pokémon and be sure to check out our best Pokémon Go accessories so you can be fully equipped on your Pokémon Journey!

What are Regional Exclusive Pokémon in Pokémon Go?

(Image credit: Niantic)

Pokémon Go is all about getting up and going, both walking and traveling. To help promote the traveling part, Pokémon Go makes some Pokémon only available in certain regions of the world. Sometimes it’s a country or island, a subcontinent or continent or part thereof, or in one case, coastlines around the equator. Whatever the region is, you have to go there to find its exclusive Pokémon.

What are the current Regional Exclusive Pokémon in Pokémon Go?

(Image credit: Niantic)

As of August 2022, there are more than 40 Pokémon that can only be caught or hatched in specific parts of the world. While these Pokémon each have designated regions where they can be caught or hatched, there is the occasional overlap, as well as parts of regions that fall outside of the spawn areas. For example, the southern tip of Florida and Texas won’t see the North American Regional Exclusive Tauros. Some Regional Exclusive Pokémon also swap regions periodically or during events.

• Farfetch’d*: East Asia
• Kangaskhan: Oceania
• Mr. Mime: Europe
• Tauros: North America
• Heracross: Central and South America
• Corsola: Tropical areas along the equator
• Illumise: Americas and Africa
• Volbeat: Europe, Asia, Oceania
• Torkoal: South Asia
• Zangoose: Europe, Asia, and Oceania
• Seviper: Americas and Africa
• Solrock: Eastern Hemisphere
• Lunatone: Western Hemisphere
• Relicanth: New Zealand and surrounding islands
• Tropius: Africa and surrounding areas
• Pachirisu: North-Arctic, including Canada, Russia, and Alaska
• Shellos (Pink): Western Hemisphere
• Shellos (Blue): Eastern Hemisphere
• Mime Jr. : Europe (5 KM eggs)
• Chatot: Southern Hemisphere
• Carnivine: Southeastern USA
• Uxie: Asia-Pacific
• Mesprit: Europe, Middle East, India, and Africa
• Azelf: Americas and Greenland
• Pansage: Asia-Pacific
• Pansear: Europe, Middle East, India, and Africa
• Panpour: Americas, Greenland
• Throh: Americas and Africa
• Sawk: Europe, Asia, and Australia
• Basculin (Red-Striped): Eastern Hemisphere
• Basculin (Blue-Striped): Western Hemisphere
• Maractus: Mexico, Central America, and South America
• Sigilyph: Egypt and Greece
• Bouffalant: New York and the surrounding areas
• Heatmor: Europe, Asia, and Australia
• Durant: Americas and Africa
• Klefki: France
• Flabébé (Blue): Asia-Pacific
• Flabébé (Red): Europe, Middle East, India, and Africa
• Flabébé (Yellow): Americas and Greenland
• Oricorio (Balie): Europe, Middle East, India, and Africa
• Oricorio (Pom-Pom): Americas and Greenland
• Oricorio (Pa’u): African, Asian, Caribbean, and Pacific islands
• Oricorio (Sensu): Asia-Pacific
• Comfey: Hawaii

Note: Farfetch’d is a Regional Exclusive. However, it’s Galarian regional variant is not exclusive. You can catch and hatch Galarian Farfetch’d in any part of the world.

Do Pokémon Go Regional Exclusives ever change region?

They do! There are currently a few pairs that have swapped regions since their introduction, such as Zangoose and Seviper. Likewise, there is a trio of Legendary Pokémon, Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf, who swapped regions, giving Trainers a few weeks to attempt to catch each of them.

Additionally, Pokemon Go occasionally holds events where certain regional Pokemon are temporarily available in other regions, if not globally. This has now happened multiple times for the first generation regionals: Mr. Mime, Kangaskhan, Farfetch’d, and Tauros.

Have any Pokémon ever stopped being Regional and gone worldwide?

Plusle and Minun started off separate, like Zangoose and Seviper, but now both spawn globally. Rumor has it; the Pokémon Company told Niantic the two best buddies shouldn’t be separated.

Do Regionals sometimes appear in other regions, like during events?

Yes. Sometimes Regional Exclusive Pokémon will be included in events. It’s almost always at real-world events like Go Fest Chicago, and sometimes during in-game events. Some examples include:

• July 2018: Torkoal at Pokémon Go Fest in Chicago, U.S.A.
• June 2018: Corsola at Pokémon Go Safari Zone in Dortmund, Germany
• November 2017: Farfetch’d globally and Kangaskhan in parts of South East Asia.
• November 2017: Mr. Mime at Safari Zone in Tottori, Japan.
• August 2017: Mr. Mime at Pokémon Outbreak in Yokahama, Japan.
• August 2017: Kangaskhan at Safari Zone Europe and Pokémon World Championships in Anaheim, California
• July 2017: Heracross at Pokémon Go Fest in Chicago, U.S.A.

How do you catch Regionals in Pokémon Go?

You catch Regionals just like you catch any Pokémon in Pokémon Go but, if you have limited time or limited spawns, you’re going to want to maximize your chances.

1. ABC. Always be curving. Once you can nail Curve Ball every time, you’ll get a 1.7x bonus every time.
2. Max out your medals. Some are easier to get than others, but they consume no resources like Great or Ultra Balls or Razz Berries, so once you get them, that 1.1x to 1.3x is automatically applied each time.
3. Consistency counts. Aim for the smallest target you can nail every time. If that’s Nice, it’s nice. If that’s Great or Excellent, even better. But better the bonus you get then one you miss, and that extra 1.3 to 2x also doesn’t consume resources and can make a difference.
4. Razz for real. Use Razz Berries when you need to. Unlike Great or Ultra Balls, you can’t miss with a Razz Berry, and its 1.5x bonus will last until you hit. For Golden Razz Berries, it’s 2.5x!
5. Bump them Balls. Use Great and Ultra Balls to maximize your odds. You get an extra 1. 5x for a Great Ball and 2x for an Ultra Ball, so use them to get those super rare or hard to catch Pokémon.

Trading for Regionals in Pokémon Go

(Image credit: Niantic)

If you just cannot afford to travel the globe in search of regionals, it is possible to trade with a friend who has. Well, for a price. If the Regional is new to your Pokédex, it’ll be considered a Special trade and cost both you and the person you’re trading with a non-trivial amount of stardust. Here are the numbers:

• Friend: No Special Trades
• Good Friend: 20,000 Stardust
• Great Friend: 16,000 Stardust
• Ultra Friend: 1,600
• Best Friend: 800

There are restrictions on Trades based on Friendship level and location. This is, in part, to discourage people from selling Pokémon. While you can meet other players through Facebook, Discord, and Reddit, most players willing to trade Regional Exclusive Pokémon aren’t going to ask for money or anything offline in return. If they do, it’s probably a scam.

How to catch the exclusive Pokémon of each region

Among the regional Pokémon, we find exclusive creatures in each of the regions, that is, on each of the continents. nine0003

• Brands : North America .
• Mr. Mim: Europe .
• Farfetch’d : Asia .
• Kangaskhan : Australia.

Now about what interests us all. If all these Pokémon — Tauros, Mr. Mim, Farfetch’d and Kangaskhan — are unique to certain regions of the world, How to get them? And the answer is after 10 kilometers of eggs, although they will obviously appear randomly when we reach these kilometers and they open. nine0003

To get these 10 km eggs we will need to visit Poképaradas and hopefully we will drop by chance. There is no other way to get them, so it would be a good idea to empty our inventory a bit, go to an area with more Poke Parades (with active baits if possible) and set up camp there.

How to Get Gimmigul’s Roaming Form in Pokémon Go

Home » Guides

November 7, 2022 Heading: GuidesAuthor: Funtik

nine0002 Want to learn how to get Gimmigul’s moving form in Pokemon Go ? Recently, the Pokémon anime and manga universe is becoming more influential every day and is turning into a larger metaverse. Standalone projects such as Pokémon Go , Scarlet and Violet and Pokémon HOME, previously independent of each other, will soon become one for every little creature lover. The first hints of such a merger were during the release of the Meltan Box item. But now it’s even more obvious because the first Pokémon of the Paldea region from Scarlet and Violet named Gimmigul was announced at Pokemon Go . This little one has two unique forms, and our guide will show you how to get Gimmigul’s roaming form in Pokémon Go .

If you run Pokémon Go at least a couple of times a week, you’ll notice strange golden PokéStops. They appeared during the recent Dratini Community Day Classic in-game event. And if you interacted with them, you got mysterious coins. The coins themselves have no value, but cute Gimmigul will haunt whoever collects these coins in the future. nine0003

As we discussed earlier, Gimmigul is a Ghost-type Pokémon with two appearances. In one form, he hides in a chest, waiting for players. At the same time, the second form, also known as the Vagrant Form Gimmigul, does not hide and walks around the Paldea region. Wandering Form Gimmigul with bright yellow eyes and a white body with black stripes looks a bit like a bee. Gimmigul looks more like a cute ghost than a scary one.

But if you want to get this Pokémon as soon as possible, we have some bad news. You won’t be able to get Gimmigul’s roaming form in Pokémon Go until at least early 2023. Access to all cross-game links is not planned until the end of this year. The same goes for the release of Gimmigul’s Wandering Form in Pokémon Go . Here’s how the developers themselves commented:

“The Nintendo Switch games Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet, scheduled to release on Friday, November 18, 2022, will be related to Pokémon. GO! Linking these games will allow you to capture a Gimmigul (roaming form) in Pokémon GO.
