Great Marsh: Difference between revisions

The Great Marsh (Japanese: だいしつげん Great Marsh) is an area located in Pastoria City. It contains some Pokémon that cannot be found anywhere else in Sinnoh.

Much like other Pokémon preserves in Kanto and Hoenn, the Great Marsh features a Safari Game in which Trainers pay File:Pokébuck sign.gif500 for 30 Safari Balls and a limited amount of time to catch all the Pokémon they can.

When a wild Pokémon appears, no Pokémon may be sent out to battle it: catching Pokémon here, as in all Safari Zones, requires sheer luck. There are four options in the battle screen: Throw a Safari Ball, throw bait, throw mud, and run away. Throwing bait makes a Pokémon less likely to run, but makes it harder to catch; while throwing mud does the reverse, making it easier to catch but more likely to run.

Pokémon

In all six areas, the Pokémon able to be caught is exactly the same.

Changing Pokémon

These Pokémon will not always appear in the Marsh. Each day, the Pokémon will change, therefore, to get a new set, players must wait a day. These Pokémon will appear randomly in one of the six areas, some may not appear for a while, while others appear several days in a row or in multiple areas on the same day. Some may not appear until after getting the National Pokédex. The only way to tell which changing Pokémon is available in the areas for the day is to use the lookout upstairs from the entrance.

This list is not yet complete.

Tricks

• A common trick to any Safari Zone is to hold down B and tap the direction pad to rotate the player character while standing in the grass, this will allow wild Pokémon to be found without taking steps.
• Another easy trick is to take a Pokémon with Sweet Scent and have it use it to get battles without taking steps.
