When encountered, a wild Pokémon's moveset will consist of the most recent four moves its species learns by level-up: that is to say, a level 8 {{p|Yanma}} will know {{m|Tackle}}, {{m|Foresight}}, and {{m|Quick Attack}} when encountered in the wild in {{game|Platinum}}, while one encountered at level 19 will have Quick Attack, {{m|Double Team}}, {{m|Sonic Boom}}, and {{m|Detect}}. This is true for even evolved species, such as {{p|Raichu}}, which, if it were able to be encountered in the wild, would ''always'' know {{m|Thunder Shock}}, {{m|Tail Whip}}, {{m|Quick Attack}}, and {{m|Thunderbolt}}. | When encountered, a wild Pokémon's moveset will consist of the most recent four moves its species learns by level-up: that is to say, a level 8 {{p|Yanma}} will know {{m|Tackle}}, {{m|Foresight}}, and {{m|Quick Attack}} when encountered in the wild in {{game|Platinum}}, while one encountered at level 19 will have Quick Attack, {{m|Double Team}}, {{m|Sonic Boom}}, and {{m|Detect}}.

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]]. | There are several ways to alter the wild Pokémon encounter rate.

In some instances, two wild Pokémon will appear at once. From Generation IV onward, if the player is accompanied by another Pokémon Trainer they can encounter [[Double Battle]]s in the wild. In Generation V, there is the chance of two Pokémon appearing at once in {{DL|Tall grass|dark grass}}. In both instances, one of the Pokémon will have to be defeated before the other can be caught. | In some instances, two wild Pokémon will appear at once.

Typically, wild Pokémon are not a central feature of the {{pkmn|anime}}, which focuses mostly on the Pokémon belonging to {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}} and other Trainers he encounters. Most of the Pokémon belonging to the group were shown in the wild at some point, but are usually captured at a later point in the same episode, most often at the end. Despite this, there have been several [[recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|recurring wild Pokémon]] who appear over a length of time and are not captured. Of all of these Pokémon, [[Ash's Aipom|an Aipom]], [[Ash's Gible|a Gible]], [[Ash's Krokorok|a Krokorok]], [[Ash's Froakie|a Froakie]], and [[Clemont's Dedenne|a Dedenne]] went on to be captured several episodes after they appeared. | Typically, wild Pokémon are not a central feature of the {{pkmn|anime}}, which focuses mostly on the Pokémon belonging to {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}} and other Trainers he encounters.

As demonstrated in a number of occasions, {{MTR}} is also a wild Pokémon. | ||
There are however numerous examples of wild Pokémon being featured in the anime in debut episodes that introduce their species, such as Clefairy in ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'' and Sudowoodo in ''[[EP162|Type Casting]]''. | There are however numerous examples of wild Pokémon being featured in the anime in debut episodes that introduce their species, such as Clefairy in ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'' and Sudowoodo in ''[[EP162|Type Casting]]''. | ||
