Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl: Safari Zone Pokemon List

The Safari Zone/Great Marsh area in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl has a select list of Pokemon to search for day or night.

The Safari Zone has been a staple of mainline Pokemon games since the first games released in 1998. Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl continue the tradition, except the designated zone is rebranded as the Great Marsh.

The Great Marsh is similar to many previous Safari Zones, but it has its unique differences in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl . The dedicated area has its own set list of Pokemon that can spawn within all 6 zones. The chances of encountering a specific character changes based on the time of day, whether the National Dex has been acquired, and a randomized potential daily encounter with one character from a binoculars sighting.

Great Marsh Safari Zone Guide

There are a total of 31 Pokemon that can be caught in the Safari Zone/Great Marsh in Brilliant Diamond and 30 in Shining Pearl, with 8 only catchable after getting the National Dex from Professor Oak after beating the Elite Four . Arbok is exclusive to Brilliant Diamond players.

Trainers will start the Great Marsh Safari Zone after buying 30 Safari Balls and entering the area. They have unlimited time to explore, but the adventure ends when every Pokeball has been thrown, or 500 steps have been reached. Trainers don't battle, but instead must use bait and lure to alter the catch/flee rate. It is highly recommended to just throw a Safari Ball without using any Bait or Lure .

There are 14 Pokemon that can only be encountered after spotting them on the lookout binoculars located on the second floor of the Safari Zone building. This character is randomized daily, and ordinary random catches have the ability to appear in the binoculars for all 6 zones as well. So, there's no guarantee a character that can only be captured after spotting it with the binoculars will actually spawn.

The date/time on the Nintendo Switch can be manipulated (just like time traveling in Animal Crossing: New Horizons ) to simulate a new daily binoculars potential Pokemon encounter.

The following table details the full Safari Zone Pokemon list, along with exactly how to trigger an encounter, and whether they are available before or after getting the National Dex.

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are out now for Nintendo Switch.

How to Play Pokémon Games on Your iPhone or iPad

Here are all the ways to play Pokémon on an iPhone or iPad, whether you want to emulate the classic games or download new ones from the App Store.

The Pokémon Company has released some of the most popular titles to ever grace the gaming community. These epic games date back to 1996 and have shaped many of our childhoods. But you don't have to stop playing Pokémon just because you don't own a Game Boy anymore.

In fact, there are plenty of ways to play Pokémon on your iPhone, whether you're looking for the latest iOS games or classic adventures like Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue. We'll explain all your options below—emulators, browser apps, and App Store games—so you'll be able to catch 'em all in no time.

Key Takeaways

Play classic Pokémon games on your iPhone with emulators, like Delta. The best way to install these is through the AltStore.
After installing an emulator on your iPhone, you'll need to get a Pokémon ROM to play on it. These are widely available for free online.
Alternatively, there are lots of new Pokémon games available for download on the App Store, like Pokémon GO or Pokémon UNITE.

Emulate Classic Pokémon Games on Your iPhone

The best way to play classic Pokémon games on your iPhone is to download and install an emulator. This is a type of app that mimics a computer system, like an old video game console. With the best emulators for iPhone , you can play Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo DS games on your iPhone. Newer consoles, like the Nintendo Switch, aren't usually available to emulate because your iPhone doesn't have enough processing power.

How to Install an Emulator on Your iPhone

Unfortunately, Apple doesn't allow emulators on the App Store. But there are plenty of alternative methods you can use to install an emulator on your iPhone instead. And none of them require you to jailbreak your device first.

For playing Pokémon on iOS, the best emulator to use is Delta , iNDS , or the browser-based Eclipse emulator. All of these are free, and together they let you play Pokémon games from all the following consoles:

Game Boy or Game Boy Color
Game Boy Advance
Nintendo 64
Nintendo DS

Most emulators are open source, which means they're free and legal to use, even if Apple doesn't like it. The most reliable way to get an emulator on your iPhone is to install the AltStore on a paired computer. Don't worry—it's simpler than it sounds. In fact, we have another post explaining exactly how to install emulators on your iPhone .

Where to Get Pokémon ROMs for Your iPhone

After you install an emulator on your iPhone, you still need a software version of the game you want to play. These are called ROMs. While emulators are free and legal to use, ROMs aren't so straightforward. If you already own a game legally, in some cases you're allowed to create your own ROM version of it for backup purposes. However, Nintendo's legal FAQ implies that even this archival use is illegal.

No matter how you obtained them, since video games are copyrighted, it's a crime for you to share ROMs with anyone else. Still, all it takes is a Google search to find whatever ROMs you're looking for , shared by other people.

Play Pokémon in Safari With Game Play Color

If installing an emulator on your iPhone sounds too complicated, you might prefer to use a web-based emulator instead. Game Play Color is the best option for this.

You still need to download ROMs for the Pokémon games you want to play. But you don't need to jump through as many hoops to get that emulator working on your iPhone.

Game Play Color is the simplest way to start playing Pokémon on your iPhone, Here's how to get set up:

Download whatever ROMs you want to play and save them to Google Drive.
Open Safari on your iPhone and load the Game Play Color website.
Tap Play Now , then tap the Share button and choose to Add to Home Screen > Add .
You should see a Game Play app icon appear on your Home Screen.
Launch the Game Play app, then sign in to your Google Drive account. You'll need to copy the access code it gives you to sync your account.
Game Play searches your Google Drive for compatible ROMs and shows them on the screen. Tap the game you want to play to boot it up.

Pokémon Games on the App Store

Most of you are probably looking to revisit the classic Pokémon games above. But we also wanted to take a moment to acknowledge some of the other Pokémon games you can download directly from the iOS App Store.

Pokémon GO

Pokémon GO exploded onto the scene in 2016, snatching news headlines and reigniting a worldwide love for the Pokémon franchise. It's an augmented reality game that uses the camera on your iPhone to let you find Pokémon in the real world. You can collect over 900 Pokémon, compete in gym battles, and go head-to-head against Team Rocket grunts.

And best of all, Pokémon GO incentivizes you to get outside and explore your local surroundings in search of the best Pokémon.

Download: Pokémon GO (Free, in-app purchases available)

Pokémon Masters EX

This game takes a fresh approach to the Pokémon experience by having you collect various Pokémon trainers, rather than the Pokémon themselves. Because each trainer is paired with a particular Pokémon already, you get a bit of both.

Pokémon Masters is more episodic than the classic games, with a series of chapters to complete and occasional game-wide events. This makes it easy to pick up and put down, but it certainly lacks the sense of adventure you probably expect from Pokémon games.

Download: Pokémon Masters EX (Free, in-app purchases available)

Pokémon Quest

This cube-style Pokémon game encourages you to build the perfect team, carefully choosing the best moves and abilities to round out your squad. It's a different kind of game than what you're probably used to with Pokémon, but that doesn't make it any less addictive.

Collect a variety of items, decorate your base camp, and try to catch all 150 original Pokémon. It isn't difficult to sink a lot of hours into this game.

Download: Pokémon Quest (Free, in-app purchases available)

Pokémon UNITE

Pokémon UNITE is all about the battles, allowing you to take part in team arena battles with four other trainers. You can battle wild Pokémon or opposing teams in a quest to level up, evolve, and score points.

Each match runs on a 10-minute timer, during which time you need to gather energy from defeating Pokémon and which you then bank by taking it to an enemy base.

Download: Pokémon UNITE (Free, in-app purchases available)

Pokémon Sleep

Pokémon Sleep isn't so much a game as it's a way to gamify sleeping. By placing your iPhone on your pillow while you sleep, Pokémon Sleep will track all kinds of metrics about your slumber and put it into a report for you. When you awake in the morning, you'll even find that you've gathered some Pokémon around you in the app.

The game will pair you up with Pokémon who are a similar sleep type to you. Then you can train them up throughout the day or research your Pokémon to fill out the new Sleep Dex.

Download: Pokémon Sleep (Free, in-app purchases available)

Mix Up Your Gaming With Some Pokémon Challenges

Now you know how to enjoy Pokémon on your iPhone. Whether you install an emulator or try out a modern Pokémon title, there's lots of fun to have on your iOS device. As you probably know, the Pokémon games aren't particularly difficult to beat. Most of the joy comes from exploring the world and discovering new creatures to add to your team. But if that doesn't sound like enough, you could add a challenge to spice up the game.

Of course, we all know the greatest challenge is to catch every Pokémon. But did you know about the Nuzlocke challenge or the Monotype challenge? There are loads of exciting Pokémon challenges you can impose on yourself to prove your mastery over the classic games. Each challenge promises to change the way you play and injects a whole new level of fun.

Hoenn Safari Zone

The Hoenn Safari Zone (Japanese: サファリゾーン Safari Zone ) is a special Pokémon preserve where Trainers can enter to catch wild Pokémon . The entrance is on Hoenn 's Route 121 .

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire , and Emerald , this Safari Zone is only accessible to Trainers participating in the Safari Game. In a Safari Game, players may only use Safari Balls , and rather than weaken wild Pokémon in battle, players must use non-conventional tactics to try and catch them. For $ 500, the player is granted entry and 30 Safari Balls. In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the player is limited to 500 steps and the player is only allowed entry if they also have a Pokéblock Case .

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire , the Safari Game has been removed, and players can enter the Safari Zone area without paying a fee. Pokémon found here are now collected through normal battles. Each area also now has both tall and long grass , and while encounters between them are mostly the same, two rare Pokémon in each area can only be found in one type of grass specifically.

Certain areas of the Safari Zone can only be accessed with the Mach Bike or the Acro Bike . In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, all areas are accessible with either Bike and Surf , but in some areas, only one type of grass will be accessible without using the other Bike. In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, there are also breakable rocks that can be used to encounter Pokémon. In Emerald , after the player obtains the National Pokédex , two new areas will open up to the east, featuring many Johto Pokémon not found in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire or Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen .

In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the Acro Bike and Surf are required to reach the long grass within this area.
In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the Mach Bike is required to reach the long grass within this area.
In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the Mach Bike is required to access this area.
In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the Mach Bike is required to reach the tall grass within this area, while the Acro Bike is required to reach the long grass.
In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the Acro Bike is required to access this area.
In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the Acro Bike is required to reach the tall grass within this area, while the Mach Bike and Surf are required to reach the long grass.
Area 5 is directly east of Area 1. It is only accessible in Emerald , and only after the player has entered the Hall of Fame .
Area 6 is directly north of Area 5. It is only accessible in Emerald, and only after the player has entered the Hall of Fame.

Pokéblock feeders

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire , and Emerald , there are Pokéblock feeders throughout the Safari Zone. If a Pokéblock is placed in a feeder, 80% of wild Pokémon encountered in grass patches and water tiles up to five steps away from the feeder will be forced to have a Nature such that, if an identically flavored Pokéblock were thrown at it, the Pokémon would be enthralled (i.e. its preferred flavor dominates its disliked flavor in the Pokéblock); the feeder has no effect if no such Nature exists. Only one Pokéblock may occupy a feeder, and the feeder's effect disappears after 100 steps are taken.

Due to an oddity in the programming of Pokéblock feeders, forced natures do not have a uniform distribution. This causes natures with higher ID numbers to be more common than Natures with lower ID numbers. For example, if a green (bitter) Pokéblock is in the feeder and forces an enthralling Nature: Calm has an 8.71% chance to be forced, Gentle has a 15.61% chance to be forced, Sassy has a 27.66% chance to be forced, and Careful has a 48.02% chance to be forced (approximately).

Safari Game

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, this Safari Zone is only accessible to Trainers participating in the Safari Game. In a Safari Game, players may only use Safari Balls; rather than weaken them in battle, players must use non-conventional tactics to try and catch wild Pokémon. There are four options on the battle screen: throw a Safari Ball , throw a Pokéblock , go near, and run away. Throwing Pokéblocks makes a Pokémon less likely to run, while going near makes a Pokémon easier to catch but more likely to run.

Pokémon found in the Safari Zone carry two values with them that are used for the mechanics of the Safari Game. First is the "catch factor", which starts at 100/1275 of the Pokémon's catch rate , rounded down. Furthermore, there is an "escape factor", which represents the probability that a Pokémon will escape at the end of each turn. This "escape factor" starts with a value of 3 which results in a 15% chance to flee per turn.

Depending on the action taken, the catch and escape factors are modified as follows:

If a Pokémon's "escape factor" is reduced below 0 * , it will be adjusted to a value of 1. If a Pokémon's escape factor is currently 1: Pokéblocks are unable to affect it.

Throwing a Pokéblock that the Pokémon completely ignores does not directly affect the escape factor, but does increment the Pokéblock counter used for subsequent Pokéblock throws. A Pokémon is enthralled by a Pokéblock if its preferred flavor dominates its disliked flavor, while a Pokémon completely ignores it if its disliked flavor dominates its preferred flavor. If both preferred and disliked flavors are equal (including if neither are present), the Pokémon is curious about the Pokéblock.

If a player chooses to throw a Safari Ball, the catch factor is multiplied by 1275/100 (rounded down) to obtain the modified catch rate. At the beginning of each turn, a randomly generated value from 0 to 99 (inclusive) is obtained, and if this value is less than 5 times the escape factor, the Pokémon will escape at the end of the turn unless captured. Modifications to a Pokémon's escape rate will not take effect until the following turn.

These numbers translate to a 5% change in probability of escaping for every unit change (plus or minus 1) in the escape factor, with an initial 15% chance of escape; and approximately a 2.5% change in probability of capture for every unit change in the capture factor, with an initial capture probability of approximately catch rate/510 rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.025 (2.5%), or 0.025 if it would be less.

Pokéblock throw bug

In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, instead of the escape factor having a minimum value of 1 (5% chance to flee) like the catch factor, the game is coded to set the escape factor to 1 if it would become negative due to a thrown Pokéblock. This means it is possible for the player to throw Pokéblocks such that a Pokémon's escape factor becomes exactly 0, and the Pokémon will have a 0% chance to escape. Exploiting this can make it very easy to catch Hoenn Safari Zone Pokémon. Though, it is worth noting that if the "escape factor" is ever equal to 1, the game will not reduce it further regardless of which Pokéblocks are thrown by the player.

Due to an oddity in the programming of Pokéblock Feeders, the distribution of wild Pokémon's natures is not even across each of the possibilities. This causes Calm Pokémon to only spawn in 1/10 encounters if a bitter Pokéblock is in the feeder while Careful natured Pokémon will occur in nearly 4/10 encounters. This gives players an opportunity to greatly increase the effectiveness of their Pokéblock manipulation.

The optimal catching strategy for exploiting this is as follows:

Make these three single- flavor Pokéblocks: two green * (bitter) Pokéblocks, and one red * (spicy) Pokéblock. Put the green * Pokéblock into a feeder and start a wild encounter near that feeder.

Note: this can be done with yellow * , pink * , blue * , and green * Pokéblocks in the feeder; green * is just the most effective. With any of these colors make a red * Pokéblock as well. If you would like to use a red * Pokéblock in the feeder pair it with a yellow * (sour) Pokéblock.

When the battle starts...

If the Pokémon's catch rate is higher than 200, throw Safari Balls .
1) If the Pokémon is curious (escape factor = 0), throw Safari Balls .
2a) If the Pokémon is enthralled (escape factor = 0), throw Safari Balls .
2b) If the Pokémon is curious (escape factor = 1), throw Safari Balls .
3) If the Pokémon is enthralled (escape factor = 1), throw Safari Balls .

This strategy results in, at minimum, a 75.88% chance to catch any Pokémon that appears.

The Safari Zone Pokémon Catch Rate goes as follows:

Vending Machine

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire , there is a Vending Machine at the entrance to the Safari Zone.

Generation III

Generation vi.

No Pokémon introduced in Generation III appear in this Safari Zone.
In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire , the entrance to the Safari Zone has a book titled "The Path of the Safari Zone" written by the founder of the Safari Zone.
In Pokémon Emerald , the Rare Candy in Area 6 cannot be picked up if the player tries to pick it up while facing it from the north or the west.
Hoenn Safari Zone Areas 1, 2, and 4 from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire can be found in the internal data of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen . However, the tileset data is missing, so the maps are glitched.
Both Aipom and Gligar can be found in the Emerald expansion of the Safari Zone, both of which would become version exclusive Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violets DLC: The Teal Mask.

Center Area

Center Area (east)

In the entrance gatehouse to the Safari Zone, pay the requisite ₽500 to enter and receive 30 Safari Balls before heading inside the Safari Zone proper.

In Yellow Version, if you bother the attendant here, he will allow you to enter the Safari Zone even if you don't have ₽500. Instead, he will take all your remaining money and give you a number of Safari Balls proportionate to the amount you paid, leaving you with a single Safari Ball if you have no money at all. It seems the developers did this to avoid an uncommon scenario that could prevent you from making any further progress in the game: if you have no money and no method of earning any more, you cannot enter the Safari Zone to obtain HM03 and the Gold Teeth, both necessary items to complete the game. No such check exists in Red and Blue, so it is quite possible, though extremely unlikely, to get yourself into this situation in those games.

Interestingly, there is an out-of-bounds hidden item inside the entry gatehouse. The Itemfinder will ping if you use it, but, unfortunately, there is no way to unearth the hidden Nugget in here.

Safari Zone mechanics You have a 500-step counter while inside the Safari Zone. Running out the counter will automatically return you to the entrance, as will running out of Safari Balls. Turning on the spot does not count as a step, but can still be used to trigger wild Pokémon battles. You are restricted to the 30 Safari Balls you bought when entering, and any unused Safari Balls are lost once the game is over. The Safari Zone also has different battling mechanics to the rest of the game. The Pokémon here do not attack you but have a nasty habit of running away from battle, and those with higher Speed stats are more likely to flee. Instead of sending out a Pokémon to fight, you're restricted to throwing rocks and bait, which affect the capture chance and fleeing chance of the target Pokémon. Each rock you throw at the wild Pokémon doubles the chance of catching it but also makes it angry for 1–5 turns, and an angry Pokémon is twice as likely to flee. Conversely, each thrown bait halves the chance of catching the Pokémon but also lulls it into an eating state for 1–5 turns, during which time it is four times less likely to flee. For all these unexplained mechanics, the strategy that gives you the best chance to capture a Pokémon on any given encounter is simply to throw Balls at it and ignore rocks and bait entirely. The only time you might ever want to consider rocks and bait is if you are running low on Balls, but you will be significantly reducing your capture chances if you do this. A little later on, Red and Blue players can take advantage of a glitch to bypass all these odd mechanics and catch Safari Zone Pokémon using standard battle mechanics. For a full breakdown of these mechanics, take a look at the Safari Zone mechanics section.

Center Area : Besides the tall grass, there isn't much of interest in the Center Area at the moment.

Pokémon evaluations Exeggcute ( evaluation ) — Rating: C . Though it will be underlevelled and belongs to the Slow experience group, Exeggcute has a nice Grass/Psychic typing and can evolve immediately into the powerful Exeggutor. It wants the Psychic TM to be truly effective, however. Rhyhorn ( evaluation ) — Rating: D . Another underlevelled Pokémon in the Slow experience group, Rhyhorn won't evolve until level 42. While its physical stats are incredible and its movepool is great, it requires a long grind to become powerful, and still has low Speed and Special. Chansey ( evaluation ) — Rating: D . Chansey isn't a bad Pokémon, but it is extremely difficult to catch. Its abysmally low Attack means it can't effectively use any STAB moves, but it does at least have a strong Special and a wide special movepool. Tangela ( evaluation ) — Rating: D . A rare Safari Zone encounter, Tangela has a terrible movepool consisting entirely of Grass- and Normal-type attacks. It lacks SolarBeam or even Petal Dance , and its Attack stat is too low to use Normal-type moves effectively. Dratini ( evaluation ) — Rating: D . Available for the first time in Yellow Version, though at the low level of 15, Dratini only evolves into its powerful final form at level 55. This is a long grind due to Dratini's low stats and Slow experience group.

In-game trade preparation To complete all in-game trades, Red and Blue players should catch a Nidorino to trade for a Nidorina on Route 11, while Yellow players should catch an extra Tangela to trade for a Parasect on Route 18. You'll be reminded shortly when to trade these in, although none of these trades is worth it for anything except completion purposes.

Head north-east and take the narrow eastern path into Center Area (east).

Center Area (east) : In this area, a few new Pokémon are available, though Kangaskhan is found in Area 2 in Yellow, while Tauros is found in Areas 2 and 3 in Red and Blue, being most common (though still very rare) in Area 3.

Pokémon evaluations Kangaskhan ( evaluation ) — Rating: D . Kangaskhan is a tough Normal-type Pokémon with good stats and an excellent movepool. However, it is also a rare Safari Zone-exclusive encounter that is likely to run away, making it extremely difficult to catch. Tauros ( evaluation ) — Rating: D . Tauros doesn't fair too well in-game largely because it's so rare and hard to catch, and then will be a little underlevelled. If you do get one, it's a strong Normal-type Pokémon with great Attack and Speed and a fantastic movepool.

Head east and climb the rocky plateau to the north. At the northern edge is a Carbos . Take the westernmost stairs down off this plateau and head north. A patch of land jutting into the central body of water has TM37 ( Egg Bomb ) on it.

TM37 can be bought infinitely at the Celadon Department Store and contains Egg Bomb, a mediocre Normal-type move with 100 power and 75% accuracy. It can only be learned by Exeggcute, Exeggutor, Chansey and Mew, which all have much better options.

To the north-west, you can pick up a Max Potion . Proceed east from there, using the small rocky plateau here to bypass the tree, and pick up the Full Restore on the other side. Finally, go up around the plateau to the west and take the western exit to Area 2.

Area 2 : Check if you have any new Pokémon available to you in Area 2 before continuing.

In-game trade preparation (Yellow) This is the only area in the game where Kangaskhan can be caught in Yellow Version, and you can catch a spare one to trade away for a Muk much later on. This isn't worth it for anything other than completion purposes.

Head west, ignoring the first staircase to the north and the path exiting south, and instead pass through the patch of tall grass to the north and take the set of stairs here. Come down off this rocky plateau using the stairs to the south-west, and then go as far north as you can. To the east from here is TM40 ( Skull Bash ).

TM40 is a one-time TM which teaches Skull Bash, a 130-power Normal-type move with the massive drawback of requiring a charge turn to execute. Pass.

Loop around the bushes to the north to find a Protein and continue west. Head all the way south and exit south into Area 3.

Area 3 : Pick up the Gold Teeth to the south, then head west and pick up TM32 ( Double Team ) in plain sight.

Using Double Team to ramp up your evade stat can be very useful if luck is on your side. After enough uses, it can feel almost impossible for your opponent to hit you, and with enough luck, it can be so good that it earned itself a ban from competitive matches. Still, it takes time to use it repeatedly over a few turns, and in-game you can often one-hit KO an opponent with supereffective hits. If you want game-breaking strategies, X Accuracy and one-hit KO moves are quicker and far superior. TM32 is also infinitely available to buy from the Celadon Department Store, so you can at least try it out without having to worry too much.

There is also a hidden Revive which is inside the nearby statue. Enter the Secret House by this statue and speak to the man inside to receive HM03 ( Surf ).

As well as being an HM move which allows you to travel over bodies of water on the overworld, Surf is an excellent Water-type move in its own right, being a little less powerful than its closest competition, Hydro Pump, in exchange for near-perfect accuracy and higher PP. It should be a staple move on any Water-type Pokémon for a strong and reliable STAB attack, though a handful of other Pokémon can learn it too. Its only downside is that once it is learned, it can't be forgotten short of trading the Pokémon to Gold, Silver or Crystal, so think carefully before teaching it.

If you have defeated the Fuchsia Gym Leader, you can now use Surf outside of battle after teaching it to a compatible Pokémon. Exit the Secret House and surf south over the small body of water here. Head south into the patch of tall grass and pick up the Max Potion a little to the east before climbing on to the rocky plateau. Head east and descend the other set of stairs here to pick up a Max Revive before exiting to the east.

Center Area : You'll emerge back into the west side of the Center Area. Head east and surf across the water to pick up the final item, a Nugget . That's all for the Safari Zone unless you want to catch any more Pokémon, so either exit to the south or, more likely, have the step counter run out to return to the entrance.

Link to area overview

Back in Fuchsia City, head for the Warden's house, which is the building directly east of the Pokémon Center. Now that you have the Gold Teeth, you can return them to the Warden to receive HM04 ( Strength ).

Strength is used on the field to push large boulders around, which will be needed to solve a few puzzles later on. In battle, it's an unremarkable 80-power Normal-type move that's outclassed by moves such as Body Slam. However, because it is an HM move, it can be taught infinitely, so if the TM for Body Slam has already been used up on a Pokémon, Strength is a reasonable alternative.

You can put Strength to work immediately and push the nearby boulder to one side so you can claim the Rare Candy .

Surf round-up With Surf now available to use outside of battle, a large portion of the game opens up to you. There are also some areas you have previously visited where you can now pick up new items and Pokémon. This guide will first take care of some in-game trades before continuing to the surf round-up.

Red/Blue in-game trade 6/9 : Nidorino ↔ Nidorina Red and Blue players should withdraw their Nidorino for this in-game trade before flying to Vermilion City and heading east on to Route 11. Proceed all the way east into the gatehouse, then head upstairs and talk to the young man by the window to trade your Nidorino away for a Nidorina.

Yellow in-game trade 3/7 : Tangela ↔ Parasect Yellow players can instead withdraw their Tangela for another rather pointless in-game trade. From Fuchsia City, take the western exit into the Route 18 gatehouse, then head upstairs and talk to the man here to trade Tangela away for a Parasect.

Surf on to the water directly south of the Pokémon Center. You'll spot two houses to the south. Surf in between them and examine the west side of the eastern house, on the tile closest to land, to find a hidden Max Ether .

Yellow players should now head to Route 6, just north of Vermilion City.

Pokémon evaluations Psyduck ( evaluation ) — Rating: D . This is the only place that Yellow players can catch a Psyduck or, rarely, its evolved form, Golduck. It'll be very underlevelled compared to the rest of your team but is otherwise a decent, if somewhat bland, Water-type Pokémon.

In-game trade preparation (Yellow) Catch a spare Golduck here if you can, even if it is rather rare, to trade away for a Rhydon later on. If you don't want to hunt for the rare Golduck, then alternatively you can get one by evolving a Psyduck, though you will have to train it from level 15 to level 33 to get it to evolve.

Make your way west from the Pokémon Center to the small pond in the centre of the city. Surf across and talk to the elderly lady on the other side to receive TM41 ( Softboiled ).

Softboiled can only be taught to Chansey and Mew. If you're using one of these two Pokémon, Softboiled has some utility for its out-of-battle effect, which transfers 20% of the user's HP to a chosen party Pokémon. Given Chansey's gargantuan HP, this can save you a few trips to the Pokémon Center. In battle, it's also useful for simply healing the user for 50% of its maximum HP, though using items is still superior without taking up a moveslot. TM41 is unique, but this isn't much of an issue as there is hardly any demand for it.

Fly to Lavender Town so you can head south into Route 12. Continue south, passing through the gatehouse, until you come to the first Fisherman. Just south from him on a small isolated section of land sits TM16 ( Pay Day ), which you can reach with Surf.

Pay Day is a weak 40-power Normal-type move without much battling use and generates money equal to twice the user's level whenever it hits the opponent. This isn't much, so it is not worth using up a moveslot for this. TM16 is unique, so use it carefully.

Pokémon evaluations Slowpoke ( evaluation ) — Rating: C . This marks the first opportunity for Yellow players to catch a Slowpoke, though higher-level ones are available later on at the Seafoam Islands. Water/Psychic typing is fantastic, but Slowpoke takes a lot of hits due to its abysmal Speed.

Now that you have Surf and have tidied up any previous areas, you can take a detour to pick up Zapdos, a level 50 dual-type Electric/Flying Legendary Pokémon. It's an excellent Pokémon, particularly if you don't have an Electric-type Pokémon on your team and have saved the Thunderbolt TM for it.

Purchase a handful of Ultra Balls and bring along a Pokémon that can put opponents to sleep, because Zapdos has a very low catch chance if it isn't inflicted with any status conditions. Freeze is equally good but far harder to inflict, while poison, burn and paralysis aren't quite as good but are still better than using no status condition at all. Also, make sure you have enough room in your PC Box for Zapdos and a handful of other wild Pokémon that you might be interested in.

Fly to Cerulean City and withdraw Pokémon that can use Surf and Cut. Head toward the eastern exit of the city by passing through the burgled house and using Cut on the bush before Route 9. Head all the way east through Route 9 on to Route 10, recognisable by a large patch of tall grass bordered by water on the north and east sides.

It might be worth healing up at the Pokémon Center just to the south here, which is the nearest one to the Power Plant but also cannot be accessed via Fly. This means that using Dig or an Escape Rope to leave the Power Plant will return you to this Pokémon Center, saving you the trek through Route 9 from Cerulean City.

Surf on to the water to the north and follow it around to the east and south. As it banks around to the west, you'll spot a PokéManiac (F) above you.

PokéManiac (F) Pokémon Type Lv. Exp. Moves Rhyhorn Ground/Rock 30 867 Horn Attack , Stomp HP: 92 , Attack: 61 , Defense: 66 , Speed: 24 , Special: 27 Lickitung Normal 30 816 Supersonic , Stomp , Disable , Defense Curl HP: 98 , Attack: 43 , Defense: 54 , Speed: 27 , Special: 45 Reward ₽1500

Just to the north-west of him is the entrance to the Power Plant, so head inside.

Pokemon: Psychic Safari

Both mobile browsers and desktop devices are supported. If the game seems unresponsive on startup, please wait a few moments while it loads.

While exploring an abandoned Pokemon Safari Zone, you come across a strange coin that gives you the power to talk to and understand Pokemon. You're there to investigate some strange happenings, but once you find the coin, there's something else to worry about: it's Pokemon mating season! If you want to get anywhere, you'll have to deal with the Safari Zone's lusty inhabitants.

Pokemon Psychic Safari is a text-based adventure focused on Pokephilia, currently in development! Themes include steamy human-on-horny-Pokemon action and some elements of hypnosis. Right now, you can explore the forest at the entrance of the Safari Zone and meet several Pokemon, both male and female, who are ready for more than just a fight...

18+: PPS is intended for mature audiences only. If you're under the age of 18, do not play it.

Coming soon!

New areas with more Pokemon to meet!
More in-combat options and player customization
Interface improvements

PPS is a fangame, and its developers have no affiliation with the Pokemon franchise.
The only playable gender currently available is cis male.
Thanks for playing!

Development log

PPS v0.1.1 Apr 10, 2023

It's been a year since the last update. Any news or should we consider this abandoned

I hope we can just hypnotize psychic pokemon or something on our own in the future. ...or maybe I just want to brainwash the pokemon

I forgot did the main char wanted to "keep" some of them? Not sure why he was there in the first place anymore. Well I do hope for an update, I just saw the last one was in april

I must admit, I wish to see more. This has so much untapped potential. But Charizard and other Pokemon would be great. If possible is this still continuing?

Genuinely a good game with pretty solid writing and surprisingly good gameplay considering its engine. Looking forward to future updates!

id like to see a walkthrough or scene guide for this as it develops, because some things can be a bit tricky to get, and bad luck with exploring can make it unclear where to go and what to do. other than that, i actually really like this game, and hope that you add more hypno focused scenes in the future. keep up the good work!!

That's cool

how long do I have to wait cus the new game and continue buttons aren't working for me and I've tried waiting 5 minutes atleast?

I had one other person complain that it wasn't working for them in the same way - it could be either due to the network you're on or your browser settings. You can try loading it on another browser or device; it should work on phones and desktops. I'm hoping to release an update this weekend that handles these loading issues more gracefully.

Edit: I think that this is probably happening due to a Chrome setting, "Block third-party cookie s in Incognito." If you're in an Incognito tab (understandable!) the game will try to access the place where it saves and loads the game, and it'll fail due to this setting. You can either try playing in a non-Incognito window or disabling that setting for now, but I'll try to make it at least not crash in an update this weekend.

after i get the silver key, i can't seem to get back to the box no matter how much i explore the glades

I'll check the logic and see if there's a way to get it confused there, but it might have just been bad luck. Also, there are two keys - if you've already opened the chest in the glade, a second chest appears in another area.

Okay, but what about after the second time? Cause I found the second chest, opened it, and it flew away. Was something supposed to happen, or have I just not found it, or is it not in yet?

Opening the boxes unlocks some otherwise-hidden content elsewhere! As the game expands, I want to keep including reasons to go back and explore places you might've already been to see what changes; the chests are an early example of that. In this case, the zones to check after opening them are the Hot Springs and the Grove.

I can't figure out how to get what Gengar wants. Roselia doesn't work. I feel like I'm missing something, but don't know what.

Go to top of map, keep exploring till you find O-balls, go to bottom left of map during day, use O-balls instantly when fighting Roselia

Cant get past first encounter with Loppany, i simply have no options. Cant click 'Continue' to return to my game, have to start over again and again.

That's odd! Mind sending me a screenshot of where it fails? It might help if you included the contents in your browser console (F12) as well.

Played it on my pc, installed on itchio app. I will try to send screenshot as soon as possible. Update: Just tried to play on my phone and everything is fine.
