In the games, wild Pokémon will appear to the player in a variety of locations, most often by walking through [[tall grass]], but also within caves, abandoned buildings, {{m|surf}}ing on water, [[fishing]], {{m|Rock Smash|smashing rocks}}, {{m|headbutt}}ing small trees, using {{m|Sweet Scent}}, slathering [[honey]] on certain trees, or by [[Phenomenon|phenomenons]]. Depending on the location, the Pokémon may be different species, and are typically at higher [[level]]s in areas only accessible later in the game.

[[Fishing]], {{m|Rock Smash|smashing rocks}}, {{m|headbutt}}ing small trees, using {{m|Sweet Scent}}, and slathering [[honey]] on certain trees may also initiate battles with wild Pokémon. Additionally, wild Pokémon sometimes hide within objects such as TVs, trash cans, and roadside bushes, and can be encountered by [[Phenomenon|phenomena]] or [[ambush encounter]]s. Depending on the location, the Pokémon may be different species, and are typically at higher [[level]]s in areas only accessible later in the game.

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 generally consist of the most recent four moves its species would know by leveling-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 even for evolved species, such as {{p|Raichu}}, which, if it were able to be encountered in the wild in Pokémon Platinum, would always know {{m|Thunder Shock}}, {{m|Tail Whip}}, {{m|Quick Attack}}, and {{m|Thunderbolt}}.


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.

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 [[Generation VII]], a wild Pokémon can [[SOS Battle|call for an ally]], turning the battle into a 2-on-1 scenario.

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.

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]]''.

In the [[EP001|first anime episode]], Ash's Pokédex states that wild Pokémon tend to be jealous of human-trained Pokémon, this being one of the reasons that the {{AP|Spearow|Fearow#In the anime}} Ash hit with a rock attacked {{AP|Pikachu}} instead.

As Pokédexes prior to the arcs in [[Hoenn]] typically needed the Pokémon to be captured in order for data to be gained, capturing wild Pokémon has been a long-standing point for every [[Pokédex Holder]] save {{Adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Silver}} until the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}. The first wild  Pokémon to be captured was a wild {{p|Nidorino}} by {{adv|Red}}, and even legendary Pokémon were seen as soon as the first round, though the one in question (a {{p|Mew}} appearing near [[Pallet Town]]) was not captured. Pokémon that have been released, unlike in the games, do sometimes appear in the wild and can be re-caught or controlled by another Trainer, such as [[Emerald's Sceptile]] and {{adv|Mewtwo}}, and again unlike in the games, where identical Trainer ID means that high-level Pokémon can be controlled by its Trainer, several Pokémon such as [[Pika]] and {{DL|Pearl (Adventures)|Zeller}} were disobedient and likely to even attack its Trainer on a whim.
