Fourth release

The fourth Pokémon Safari was the first to use a different event title, and was available from October 12 to 26, 2015. This version of the Pokémon Safari was also the first to be released in Pokémon Shuffle Mobile. This was repeated under the event name "Head Back into the Safari!" from April 26 to May 10, 2016 for both versions.

Though Duskull and Dusclops were part of this Safari, Dusknoir was not; it was instead released as a Great Challenge stage at the same time as the Safari.

Since this Safari's debut, all Pokémon in it have reappeared in some way. All members of the Crobat family later appeared in the 12th release of the Pokémon Safari; this may be because Duskull, Dusclops, Pumpkaboo, and Gourgeist all appear in Graucus Hall.

Fifth release

The fifth Pokémon Safari was first available from December 28, 2015 to January 11, 2016 for both versions.

Though Fletchling and Fletchinder were part of this Safari, Talonflame was not; it was instead released as a High-Speed Challenge stage at the same time as the Safari.

This Safari was repeated from November 15 to 29, 2016. During this run and future runs, the Pokémon opponents could occasionally drop an   Exp. Booster S,   Exp. Booster M or   Exp. Booster L if the player had already caught that Pokémon.

Another repeat happened from October 4 to 10, 2017. Female versions of Hippopotas and Hippowdon were added, but Camerupt was removed.

During the first few runs of this Safari, it was the only Safari that did not use 3-Pokémon Stages. During the October 2017 repeat, however, the Safari was changed to use 3-Pokémon Stages.

In this Safari, each stage is set up such that if the Pokémon featured in it is brought as a Support Pokémon, a match will always be made at the start of the stage, triggering the opponent Pokémon to disrupt with multiple   Coins. If not, the Pokémon will instead disrupt with a single Coin after the first move has been made.
