Each Safari Zone has its own set of rules, but there are some similarities.
To enter, you pay an entrance fee, and you have a step limit.
Once you hit the limit, youre booted out.
Safari Zones are a staple of the series, but which is the best?
There are no battles here, just the quirky Safari Zone mechanics to catch Pokemon.
If you’re trying to complete your Pokedex, good luck!
Some Pokemon are so rare, youd have better odds finding a unicorn.
Here’s a list of the toughest ones to catch!
This little egg cluster only appears in the Great Marshbut not easily.
First, you oughta beat the game and unlock the National Dex.
Even then, Exeggcute wont just show up.
The Great Marsh picks random Pokemon daily, and Exeggcute has a 1/32 chance of being chosen.
If its not picked, youre just running in circles for nothing.
Even when it is picked, it only has a ten percent encounter rate!
Congrats, your odds just doubled to 2/32!
Still bad, but hey, slightly less pain!
8Shroomish
Shroomish isnt any different from Exeggcutesame struggle, same pain.
If it is chosen, you still have just a ten percent chance of actually finding it.
And now I want a Ghost-key in Eeveelution that I’m never going to get.
No Chesnaught, no Virizion, no Hisuian Lilligant or Decidueyejust Shroomish.
So, if you want this little mushroom, maybe try bribing the RNG gods with mushrooms.
First, you must have a Super Rod, but thats just the beginning.
Dragonair only has a one percent chance of appearing, so get ready for some serious patience.
Dragonair is one of the hardest Pokemon to catch in the Safari Zonesecond only to Chansey.
But hey, who doesnt love endless gambling for tiny digital dragons?
Unlike them, though, Gulpin and its evolution dont even have a unique pop in combo.
If youre truly desperate for Gulpin, its odds in Platinum are slightly better2/32 instead of 1/32.
5Drapion
Unfortunately, Drapion is yet another victim of the Great Marshs cruel RNG.
Like the others, it has a 1/32 chance of being chosen for the day.
So instead of suffering through the Marsh for Drapion, just catch a Skorupi and train it yourself.
But hey, at least youre not missing out on a powerhouse.
Paras and its evolution, Parasect, are far from top-tier.
Here are the best Eevee trainers from the Pokemon anime!
So if you do find a Paras, just verify it never, ever sees a Flamethrower.
To top it off, to even reach Area Five, youll have tobecome the Champion.
So, if you planned on using Quagsire in the league… well, forget about it.
With their unique Poison and Fighting throw in combination, theyre pretty specialwell, unless you count Okidogi.
Unfortunately, just like the other Pokemon on this list, Toxicroaks fate lies in the Great Marsh.
So, its not all badjust mostly.
Grab a Super Rod and pray to the Pokemon gods for luck.
But dont worry, you dont have to rely on just that one percent chance.
Catching a Remoraid will make your life easier.
Still, good luck with that one percentits like looking for a needle in a haystack!
Not just that, but another 11 Pokemon right behind them.
These creatures need speed.
