'''Poké Spots''' (Japanese: '''ポケスポット''' ''Poké Spot'') are locations in [[Orre]] where {{pkmn2|wild}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} can be {{pkmn|battle}}d and caught in {{Pokémon XD}}. Since the majority of Orre is a wasteland, it does not have the abundance of wild Pokémon found in other regions and thus Poké Spots are rare, with only three known to exist. The three Poké Spots are called the '''Rock Poké Spot''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|岩場|いわば}}のポケスポット''' ''Rocky Poké Spot''), the '''Oasis Poké Spot''' (Japanese: '''オアシスのポケスポット''' ''Oasis Poké Spot''), and the '''Cave Poké Spot''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|洞窟|どうくつ}}のポケスポット''' ''Cave Poké Spot''). The Pokémon found at the three spots loosely correspond to the terrain of the spot.

Wild Pokémon are only lured into the open at a Poké Spot if [[Poké Snack]]s are left there. Up to ten Poké Snacks can be left at any one spot, and they will slowly be eaten away if a wild Pokémon arrives. During this period, the {{player}} will be notified of activity at the Poké Spot by their [[P★DA]]. If they arrive before all the Poké Snacks are eaten, they can battle the wild Pokémon.

There is a 10% chance that, in lieu of a wild Pokémon, the {{p|Munchlax}} owned by the Herb Shop owner from [[Gateon Port]] will arrive at a Poké Spot and start to eat the Poké Snacks. Instead of battling the Munchlax, its {{pkmn|Trainer}} will arrive as well, giving the player 10 Poké Snacks to compensate any the Munchlax may have eaten, along with a random [[herbal medicine]] as a token of apology. The runaway {{p|Bonsly}} also has a 30% chance to appear at a Poké Spot after having been scared off the [[S.S. Libra]] by the player's P★DA ringtone. The Bonsly can be returned to its Trainer using the same tactics attempted aboard the S.S. Libra: by approaching it slowly. Once Bonsly is returned, it will no longer appear at any of the Poké Spots.

If the player catches the rarest Pokémon in each Poké Spot ({{p|Trapinch}} in the Rock Poké Spot, {{p|Surskit}} in the Oasis Poké Spot or {{p|Wooper}} in the Cave Poké Spot), the player can do an [[in-game trade]] with [[Duking]] to obtain a Pokémon that knows special moves (although Trapinch, Surskit and Wooper caught in GBA games will also be accepted).

==List of Poké Spots==
===Rock Poké Spot===
[[File:Rock Poké Spot XD.png|300px|thumb|Rock Poké Spot]]
Found in the eastern portion of Orre, close to the [[Outskirt Stand]], this Poké Spot is a small desert clearing surrounded by canyon cliffs. When the player is not battling here, this Poké Spot is bordered on the left by a cliff that overhangs part of the Poké Spot and to the right by several large rocks. From the entrance to the center is a brick sidewalk. In the center is the platform for the placement of Poké Snacks.

Three Pokémon can be found here:

===Oasis Poké Spot===
[[File:Oasis Poké Spot XD.png|300px|thumb|Oasis Poké Spot]]
Found in the western portion of Orre, close to [[Pyrite Town]], this Poké Spot is a small peninsula with rich flora that is an oasis in the middle of the desert. When the player is not battling here, this Poké Spot is circular and almost entirely surrounded by water. Bordering the edge of the Oasis Poké Spot is a circle of grass dotted with several rocks and five palm trees. Inside the circle of grass are smaller concentric circles of sand and grass in a pattern similar to a [[Poké Ball]], with a stone platform at the center for the placement of Poké Snacks.

===Cave Poké Spot===
[[File:Cave Poké Spot XD.png|300px|thumb|Cave Poké Spot]]
Found in the northern portion of Orre, on the side of [[Mt. Battle]], this Poké Spot is a small area in a cavern full of stalagmites and stalactites. Similar to the other two Poké Spots, there is a platform in the center for the placement of Poké Snacks. Also, the player's first encounter with [[Miror B.]] takes place here.

{{Party/end}}
If the player loses to Miror B. here, an oversight will prevent {{shadow|Voltorb}} from appearing in Miror B.'s [[rematch]] teams, locking the player out of obtaining it and {{shadow|Dragonite}}.

If the [[Miror Radar]] goes off, Miror B. may appear at a random Poké Spot, carrying a [[Miror B.#Poké Spot battles|team]] including one or two Shadow Pokémon the player previously failed to snag. Sometimes, however, instead of Miror B., just [[Trudly]] and [[Folly]] may be present.

==Trivia==
*Due to games set in Orre replacing the "Run" option in battle with "Call", it is impossible to run away from wild Pokémon except by using {{m|Teleport}}, or by forcing the wild Pokémon out of the battle via {{m|Roar}} or {{m|Whirlwind}}.
**This is also the only circumstance in which Teleport can be successfully used in battle in the Orre region.
**If a [[Fluffy Tail]] or [[Poké Doll]] is traded into the game, attempting to use it at any time, even in battle against a wild Pokémon, will prompt a message saying that the item's use is forbidden in the Orre region.
**[[Smoke Ball]]s still function as normal, however. If one is traded into the game and held by a Pokémon, that Pokémon can Teleport away from the battle, even if its opponent is a {{p|Trapinch}} with {{a|Arena Trap}}.
*[[Shiny Pokémon]] that appear at Poké Spots will appear as Shiny in the overworld prior to the battle beginning. However, they will not sparkle at the beginning of the encounter like wild Shiny Pokémon do in other games.
