I was just wondering what are some of the hardest pokemon to obtain that isn't something like a event exclusive, legendary or game transfer exclusive pokemon?
Like one that you can find in the wild or npc trade or something

Anything that needs an item+trade to evolve. Especially Porygon-Z, since Porygon2 is more commonly used.

And Porygon's evo items are unfarmable and you only get a single set. Meaning that even with a friend, a living dex would require at least 36 BP.
>>32184552
Actually anything from fishing, most of the Alolan Pokemon are fairly common with some rare ones like Mimikyu or Bewear. But fishing? Man, you can get ANYTHING for a Sharpedo.

Bewear is always a 5% encounter. It likely seems common because Bewear is the Audino of SM due to the high health it has and people typically grind it for EXP.

5% in the wild isn't rare by SM standards imo

Rare is more the 5/10% SOS encounters, or the 5% hold items of 5% encounters (Razor Claw)

5% is moderately rare still. Rare is fishing without using a ripple though (1%).
Rare as far as SOS goes is Castform and Politoed, which aren't Alolan Pokemon but Castform only shows up during weather (1% iirc)

Politoed only shows up when called by a Poliwag, in Malie Garden, at night, while it's raining, at a 1% chance. I fucking wish I was joking.

Alolan Pokemon in general are relatively common but there are stinkers like Mareanie that need help to find. Otherwise the majority of them are pretty common or otherwise very conspicuous, like Wimpod.

Lucky.

I was also lucky because the first SOS from Poliwag was a Politoed. Had two drizzlers prepped and everything.

Milotic in RSE. Feebas was a pain in the asshole to get, now to obtain Milotic it's even worse. I never found the item or someone to trade with because I don't know anyone who plays Pokémon, even less if it's gen 3.

Add to the difficulty that there is no GTS so I can't just ask for a Milotic.

Red and Blue: Wild Muk (1% in Red) and wild Weezing (1% in Blue)

Gold and Silver: Wild Qwilfish (1% with Super Rod)

Ruby and Sapphire: Wild Chimecho (1% in Mt. Pyre)

Diamond and Pearl: I don't know. I haven't played any Sinnoh games.

Black and White: Wild Politoed and Milotic (5% while fishing in rippling water) (Also goes for Black 2 and White 2)

Black 2 and White 2: Wild Pinsir (0.25% in Black 2) and wild Heracross (0.25% in White 2) (Heracross and Pinsir are version exclusives but can be found in the opposite game through Hidden Grotto)

X and Y: Wild Huntail (5% with Super Rod in X) and wild Gorebyss (5% with Super Rod in Y)

Sun and Moon: Any SOS exclusive Pokémon while weather. (I would also say FUCKING Gengar, I tried to caught it and never appeared, at least in my game a Castform appeared twice)

All you had to do was start at the top of the river and fish 5 times in each spot going down until you found a Feebas. Finding new Pokemon with the terrible SOS is system is much harder.

Feeding Feebas Blue/Rainbow Pokeblocks and maxing the "Beauty" contest stat is the only way to evolve it in gen 3 anon.

I would put RSE Chimecho up there. Because no one uses it in gen 3, so there's no way to Pokedex it. There's no way to find it beyond either knowing it's already there, or dumb shit luck.

Man, that takes me back to middle school. I used to put honey on all the trees in the region and let the DS on sleep mode until the 6 hours have passed. I did this because I wanted to catch Aipom and Cherubi, but in the last tree I checked appeared a Munchlax and I caught it. I never knew it was so rare.
