QuestionIt is Tuesday and the one it says won't appear, why?
Bun bunTop AnswererCheck the Pokémon you are using have maxed out EVs and that you have not altered your date and time recently. -
QuestionHow many times do these Pokemon appear? If I kill one, do they come back?
Community AnswerThese Pokemon only appear once. If you kill it you could soft reset (press L+R+Start/Select). You must save before fighting the Pokemon so soft resetting is helpful. Another thing you can do is beat the Elite Four again and all legendary Pokemon that have fainted can be fought again. -
QuestionHow do I catch rare Pokemon?
Bun bunTop AnswererLegendary Pokémon depend on the game, and can be found in different specific locations. Shiny Pokémon have a 1 in 4032 chance of encounter (1 in 8064 in older games), and this can be increased with other methods. Other rare Pokémon, such as Chansey, can be found via means such as the Safari Zone. -
QuestionHow do I catch Cobalion in pokemon?
Community AnswerYou catch Cobalion the same as Virizion and Terrakion. If you just caught one late at night and then try to get Cobalion, he won't appear because you have to wait 12 hrs until you can encounter one of them again. -
QuestionAt what time do they come?
Community AnswerAny time of day. Go with 3 of your self-trained Pokemon (not traded or been to daycare), that will trigger their appearances the most. -
QuestionWhat is the best Pokeball that I can catch on the swords of justice?
Community AnswerI think Verizion should be caught in a nest ball. Terrakion in an ultra ball. And Cobalion a Master ball. And if you have an event net ball for Keldeo. -
QuestionCan I catch all of the rare Pokemon?
Community AnswerNot all rare or legendary Pokemon are in the game unless you got the mystery gift from Gamestop. -
QuestionIt's a Monday and Virizion is not there - what do I do?
Community AnswerTry again on Thursday. It may just be a glitch with your 3DS; check your date/time settings. -
