Hidden Pokémon occasionally appear while the player is walking; these Pokémon can be selected from any of the Pokémon that can be found outside of Horde Encounters in tall grass normally. This is represented by the Pokémon making its [[cry]] while rustling around in a grass patch, typically with one of the Pokémon's appendages sticking out of rustling grass (often shadowed), although some Pokémon appear in different ways while rustling (such as {{p|Voltorb}} appearing as a yellow glow). Pokémon which normally only appear in [[Horde Encounter]]s in that location will not appear at random. The player can also force hidden Pokémon to appear with the search function.

Pokémon that appear in [[tall grass]] will remain stationary, whereas Pokémon in [[water tile|water]] and on [[cave tile]]s will warp around the location. Pokémon in water must be encountered by {{m|Surf}}; [[fishing]] will ignore any appearance of a hidden Pokémon.

If a hidden Pokémon appears near the player, the DexNav will react. If the DexNav is in the Nearby Pokémon view or the Found Pokémon view, it will automatically change to the Hidden Pokémon view; if the DexNav is in the catching progress view, it will display a blinking magnifying glass centered in a red circle; if it is not the active application, the DexNav tab will be overlain with a magnifying glass centered in a red circle. If the player taps the DexNav while it is reacting in such a way while it is in the catching progress view, the DexNav will enter the Hidden Pokémon view.

This view displays the Pokémon's [[type]] and the player's Search Level for that Pokémon, and as the player gets closer to the Pokémon in question will also display the Pokémon's silhouette. Other information, such as the Pokémon's [[level]], first [[move]], [[Ability]], [[held item]] and potential may also be displayed. If the Pokémon has a special move, [[Hidden Ability]], high level, or high potential, an exclamation mark will appear next to that datum on the view. More information about the Pokémon will be displayed when the player's Search Level is higher for that particular Pokémon species.

*They can be up to 20 levels higher than the expected level for the area.  As the player continues to chain with the DexNav, hidden Pokémon will gradually increase in level until they are 10 levels higher than normal.  (At this point the level increase resets to zero and starts increasing again.)  Additionally, some hidden Pokémon will have a fixed bonus of 10 levels, indicated by an exclamation mark; however, these Pokémon can change locations much faster than normal, and are typically much faster to flee if left alone.

*They can have some number of perfect (= 31) [[Individual values|genes]], indicated by the number of stars highlighted.  Three or more perfect genes shows an exclamation mark.  The Pokémon may have four or more perfect genes, but this will still be shown as three stars.

As the player's chain increases, wild Pokémon are more likely to have these traits.
