Roaming Pokémon: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 17:35, 4 October 2025

Roaming Pokémon is a spawn mechanic introduced to Pokémon Vortex in v5 that sees certain Pokémon move from one location to another on an hourly basis (XX:00 UTC)

There is no way of knowing the location of a Roaming Pokémon until it has been found. Once found, it will remain in that location for the remainder of that hour (UTC time) allowing it to theoretically be hunted/farmed for a short period of time.

Some general rules to Roaming Pokémon are:

They will never spawn in water
They will never spawn in caves or indoor locations such as the Power Plant
More than one Roaming Pokémon can be in the same location at the same time
They will never spawn in towns/cities with the exception of New Haven
New spawn location can be the same as the previous location
They will always spawn during both day and night
