A '''Horde Encounter''' (Japanese: '''群れバトル''' ''Herd Battle'') is a type of [[Pokémon battle]] introduced in {{g|X and Y}}. Horde Encounters consist of the appearance of a group of five [[wild Pokémon]]. Unlike in [[Double Battles]], Pokémon in a horde are usually of the same species, but may include counterparts or other Pokémon with similar design origins. | A '''Horde Encounter''' (Japanese: '''群れバトル''' ''Herd Battle'') is a type of [[Pokémon battle]] introduced in {{g|X and Y}}.

Pokémon encountered in hordes may also have their [[Hidden Ability]]. | ||
