Talk:Mass outbreak

I'm under the impression that people in the same group will have swarms on the same day. Can anyone confirm this?

Well, um, one of my friends and I had superheavy rain on Route 212 on the same day, and we're in the same group. TTEchidna 13:14, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Superheavy rain? Same group? What do you mean? File:Ani164MS.gifShiny^?! 13:17, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes, people in the same group experience the same Swarms. We've taken advantage of this several time to let each other know if we run into a swarm the other might be interested in. --Phred 04:01, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Okay, this is enough...

Is Tangela a swarmer or not? Is Tropius in the Safari Zone or not? Seriously. TTEchidna 13:15, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

No they aren't. Check veekun. Veekun's data is taken straight from the games, so it's guaranteed to be correct. File:Ani164MS.gifShiny^?! 13:17, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Um...

Shouldn't this article also cover swarming in the GSC games and the RSE games as well? Because I distinctly remember getting calls of certain Pokémon from certain people in GSC and seeing news coverages in RSE. - PDL

Yeah, I think the same... swarms DO exist in previous games, althought not in the same way they do in D/P. My cousin, who has Sapphire mixed records with my brother (who has Ruby) and then a TV report was saying that there was a Seedot swarm on Route 114, which obviously was strange, cause Seedot can't be caught in Sapphire. I think there should be info added on this too. hfc2X 20:28, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Actually, this happened to me too. You're the first one, excluding me of course, who I know having a Seedot swarm. This happened to me, though, without any recent link cable activity. UltimateSephiroth 12:35, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Mass Outbreak

Hayley refers to Swarms as a "Mass Outbreak". Should the article be moved to this? -Sketchies 12:44, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

My official player's guide also refers to this as "Mass Outbreak". ~$aturn¥oshi ^{THE VOICES} 18:20, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
