This view displays the menu sprites of wild Pokémon in a particular area that the player has owned, and silhouettes of the menu sprites of wild Pokémon that the player has seen (the player does not have to have encountered these Pokémon in this location for them to appear here). These sprites are placed on an image rendered using Generation III tiles unique to that particular area; Pokémon that appear in the [[water tile|water]] are placed over water areas (no distinction is made between {{m|surf}}ing and [[fishing]] encounters, nor different rods), while Pokémon encountered in [[tall grass]] are placed over tall grass.
