Roaming Legendary Bird

One of the three Kanto legendary birds roams Kalos based on which starter you chose. Lv 70. Roaming means it moves between random routes each time you fly or change areas. Tracking it via the Town Map shows current location.

★ Hunting tip:
  1. Open your Town Map (X menu → Town Map). The bird shows up as a glowing dot on a route.
  2. Fly to the route it's on.
  3. Walk into tall grass — encounter is RNG, repeat until it appears.
  4. It flees turn 1. Mean Look (Crobat/Umbreon learn it) or Wobbuffet's Shadow Tag locks it in. Block-style Pokémon also work.
  5. Lead with a Quick Ball — best success on turn 1. Otherwise False Swipe + status, then Ultra/Timer Balls.
