The pokémon data given for swarms in Gen III is the opposite of what is given in the respective route pages. For example, this page says that {{p|Surskit}} swarm in Ruby/Sapphire and not in Emerald while the respective route pages say that they swarm in Emerald and not in Ruby/Sapphire. (See {{rt|102|Hoenn}}, {{rt|114|Hoenn}}, etc.). Also, they have other swarming pokemon for Ruby/Sapphire that are not mentioned in this page. -[[User:Ishu bagaria|Ishu bagaria]] ([[User talk:Ishu bagaria|talk]]) 07:46, 9 October 2015 (UTC) | The pokémon data given for swarms in Gen III is the opposite of what is given in the respective route pages.

:Someone changed it here a while ago. I've not been able to check it myself, but if pressed to guess, for now I'd wager this page is correct. (Which isn't to say anyone should assume it is; if you don't know, check it somehow before changing whatever data.)

::From what I can tell, Surskit naturally swarm in R/S but the swarm can be transferred to Emerald via record mixing. The game-exclusive Pokémon page only lists the Emerald part because that's the only part relevant to that article; that got transferred to the Pokémon location page.

==Move== | |||
In Black 2 and White 2, the most recent appearance of the outbreak mechanic, the mechanic is only referred to as "Pokémon outbreak" once, and as "mass outbreak" four times: | |||
* ''"Are you checking the electric bulletin boards? Right now, news about '''mass outbreaks''' of Pokémon is really hot!"'' | |||
* ''"Sometimes, there are '''mass outbreaks''' of Pokémon, right? A lot of the exact same Pokémon show up at the same time, and it's such a surprise! Like where were all of you before? If you look at the electronic bulletin boards, you can learn about them!"'' | |||
* ''"Have you heard of '''mass outbreaks'''? Big groups of Pokémon appear during a '''mass outbreak'''. It's a great chance to catch them!"'' | |||
* ''"◆ A '''Pokémon outbreak''' at <location>!"'' | |||
To say that "mass outbreak" is not the "most recent term" is a bit of a stretch, when it is referred to as such more often in the Generation V games, and has been used since My Pokémon Ranch. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 03:29, 26 August 2016 (UTC) | |||
== Generation III outbreaks == | |||
The Pokémon that appear in outbreaks in Gen III appear to have fixed moves. Most notably, Seedot and Nuzleaf has particularly special moves. | |||
As [[#Ruby Outbreak|mentioned above]] and on the [[:de:Gesichtete Pokémon|German wiki]], outbreak Seedot have the moves {{m|Solar Beam}}, {{m|Giga Drain}}, {{m|Leech Seed}} and {{m|Frustration}} (unfortunately, the video linked in the comment on this talk page is no longer available). Currently, the article only notes Leech Seed for Seedot, but it does also mention that outbreak Nuzleaf have Leech Seed too. | |||
Additionally, as seen in [https://youtu.be/3uaklSgKNwE?t=8m39s this video], the level 15 outbreak Skitty found in RS only know {{m|Growl}} and {{m|Tackle}} (when they would normally know {{m|Tail Whip}}, {{m|Attract}}, {{m|Sing}}, and {{m|DoubleSlap}} at that level). On the other hand, as seen [https://youtu.be/ZThMKBBcGws?t=8m19s here], level 8 outbreak Skitty found in Emerald know {{m|Growl}}, {{m|Tackle}}, {{m|Tail Whip}}, and {{m|Attract}}, as would be expected for their level. | |||
Due to the internal batteries of my games being dry I don't get outbreaks in Gen III anymore, but I think this is something we should look into. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:35, 28 August 2016 (UTC) | |||
:Also, [https://youtu.be/RQDnhT2vfiQ?t=1m46s as seen here], level 15 Surskit in RS only know {{m|Bubble}} and {{m|Quick Attack}}, whereas normally they should also know {{m|Sweet Scent}}. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:48, 28 August 2016 (UTC) | |||
