Friend Safari: Difference between revisions

Shuffled a bit... Tried to go most important to least (and thin out the Pokemon section). Cascoon really seems like trivia. Also a bit easier to understand/check things in terms of the friend list/PSS

Once the {{player}} has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], they are able to access [[Kiloude City]] and thus the Friend Safari. When they have registered someone else's [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] [[Friend Code]] in their own 3DS, the player is able to access the Friend Safari belonging to that friend, regardless of whether that person has played {{g|X and Y}} or not. Each Friend Code has a designated {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[type]] and specific Pokémon that will be obtainable in its Friend Safari, and these will not change. As such, any player who ever registers a given Friend Code in their 3DS will always be able to access the exact same Friend Safari.
Once the {{player}} has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], they are able to access [[Kiloude City]] and thus the Friend Safari. At the Friend Safari, the player is able to access Safaris for any Friends that are successfully registered in the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]]'s friend list (regardless of whether or not that person has played {{g|X and Y}}). Each Safari has designated {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that can be encountered, all belonging to a designated type; these are determined by the Friend's [[Friend Code]] and will not change. As such, any players who successfully register a given Friend Code in their 3DS will all be able to access the exact same Friend Safari. There is no way for the player to access the Friend Safari for their own 3DS.


Players cannot access their own Friend Safari.
All Friend Safaris have three Pokémon that may be captured. Only Pokémon from the first two "slots" are available until the Friend to whom that Safari belongs enters the [[Hall of Fame]]. If a Friend from the 3DS's Friend List is also recognized as a Friend in the [[Player Search System|PSS]] (if both players have been on the PSS at the same time), the Pokémon in that Friend's Safari will thereafter have a chance of having their [[Ability#Hidden Abilities|Hidden Ability]]. If a Friend is not recognized in the PSS, the character avatar for their Friend Safari will be a "?".


===Pokémon===
Pokémon encountered in the Friend Safari are guaranteed to have at least two {{IV}}s of 31. They also have a 1/512 chance of being {{Shiny}} (eight times more likely than normal). The Shiny chance is not affected by the [[Shiny Charm]].
All {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that appear in the Friend Safari are [[level]] 30 (causing some, such as {{p|Muk}} and {{p|Drapion}}, to be [[underleveled]]) and are guaranteed to have at least two {{IV}}s of 31. Pokémon can be found in the Friend Safari regardless of being [[game-exclusive Pokémon]] or otherwise unobtainable in either version.


All Friend Safaris have three Pokémon that may be captured. Only two of them will be available until the friend to whom that Safari belongs enters the [[Hall of Fame]]. All three Pokémon are of the same type, determined by that player's Friend Code. Once the player has been online in-game at the same time as a friend, the Pokémon in that friend's Safari will thereafter have a chance of having their [[Ability#Hidden Abilities|Hidden Ability]]. If the player has not been online in-game at the same time with a given friend, that friend will have a "?" where their character avatar would otherwise be.
All Pokémon that appear in the Friend Safari are [[level]] 30 (causing some, such as {{p|Muk}} and {{p|Drapion}}, to be [[underleveled]]). Pokémon can be found in the Friend Safari regardless of being [[game-exclusive Pokémon]] or otherwise unobtainable in either version.


{{p|Cascoon}}, a pure {{type|Bug}} Pokémon, is the only Pokémon to be found in a Friend Safari whose type does not match itself, as it is found in a {{type|Poison}} Friend Safari. However, its [[evolution]], {{p|Dustox}}, is part Poison-type.

In the tables below, note that "rate" does not refer to {{DL|Tall grass|Determining the rate of encounter|encounter rate}} but rather the likelihood for a Pokémon to have been selected for that "slot" of a Friend Safari. All Pokémon that can appear in a given Friend's Safari have the same encounter rate.

In the tables below, note that "rate" does not refer to {{DL|Tall grass|Determining the rate of encounter|encounter rate}} but rather the likelihood for a Pokémon to be available in that type of Friend Safari at all. All Pokémon that can appear in a specific friend's Friend Safari have the same encounter rate.
