There are several ways to alter the wild Pokémon encounter rate. One of these, introduced in Generation I, is the use of [[Repel]], which will avoid encounters with any Pokémon of a lower level than the [[party]]'s lead Pokémon. The {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Cleanse Tag}} was introduced in [[Generation II]], which lowers the encounter rate. Pokémon March and Pokémon Lullaby in [[Generation II]], played on the [[Pokégear]], will raise or lower the encounter rate respectively, while {{cat|Abilities that affect appearance of wild Pokémon|certain Abilities}} do the same since {{v2|Emerald}}. The White and Black [[Flute]]s can be used for this in [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]]. In [[Generation V]], two types of [[Entralink#List of Pass Powers|Pass Powers]] (Encounter Power ↑ and Encounter Power ↓ ) take over this function, while in [[Generation VI]], two [[O-Power]]s (Encounter Power and Stealth Power) inherit the same properties. | There are several ways to alter the wild Pokémon encounter rate.
