D/P/Pt Locations
Back to The Cave of Dragonflies
This section consists of detailed wild Pokémon info on all the locations in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum. Here you can find out exactly the chance of finding any particular Pokémon at any particular level in any particular location when any of the conditions that affect wild Pokémon are active. If you want to find where a certain Pokémon is found, your browser's search function (Ctrl+F) should be able to find it wherever its name occurs on this page. Same for if you're looking for the data on any particular location; just search for the name of the location.
If you want to skip to the "Places to Train" section for good locations to train Pokémon at particular levels, please go here.

- [encounter type]
- The type of action you need to be taking in order to encounter a wild Pokémon. Most commonly, you'll be looking at tables marked Walking; those tables show the Pokémon found when walking through tall grass or on the floor in a cave. There are also tables for Surfing, Fishing with Old Rod, Fishing with Good Rod and Fishing with Super Rod.
- [condition type]
- The type of condition that can modify the following rarity slots. For instance, the Time of day modifies slots three and four: those slots frequently contain different Pokémon depending on whether it is morning, day or night. Swarming also modifies slots one and two, the PokéRadar modifies slots seven, eight, eleven and twelve, and a Pokémon game in the GBA slot modifies slots nine and ten. Slots five and six are never modified. Since no conditions apply when Surfing or fishing, this is omitted in those tables.
- [condition]
- The required condition for these particular slots. For example, it might say Morning under Time of day, which would mean those are the Pokémon that occupy these slots in the morning, while other Pokémon are listed for Day and Night. The Default that is frequently the first condition under any particular condition type simply refers to whatever will be in the slots if nothing else overrides it: for instance, Default under Swarming denotes the content of the slots when there is not a swarm ongoing on the route. If the only condition listed under a condition type is Default, those slots are never modified in this location. Remember, only one condition under each condition type is true, so only one pair of slots is active under each condition type at any one time! Also skipped for Surfing/fishing tables, as they are not affected by any conditions.
- [rarity]
- The percentage likelihood of the Pokémon from this slot appearing in a random encounter. If the same Pokémon is listed in multiple slots, you can of course add the percentages together to get the total odds of finding that Pokémon. When walking, the slots have the rarities 20%, 20%, 10%, 10%, 10%, 10%, 5%, 5%, 4%, 4%, 1%, 1% in this order; when Surfing or fishing, the slots have the rarities 60%, 30%, 5%, 4%, 1% in this order.
- [Pokémon], [level]
- The Pokémon that occupies this slot in the denoted game and its level. You can see the experience and effort points you gain for beating this Pokémon by hovering over it with your mouse. When Surfing or fishing, there are level ranges rather than single levels; then a random level is picked out of the range shown when you encounter this Pokémon. When there is a - instead of a Pokémon, it means that there is no Pokémon defined for this method in this location in this game; this only happens if the actual methods were modified between games, such as if in Diamond and Pearl some Pokémon appear at 'all times' while in Platinum there are different sets of Pokémon for morning, day and night. Where this happens, just pretend those rows in the table simply don't exist for this particular game.
- Statistics
- The bottom section of the table summarizes the location as a training spot, showing the range of levels found in the location, the average experience you get for each wild Pokémon battle in the location, and the average number of effort points gained for fighting 100 wild battles in the location in each game. This is necessarily inaccurate as the table stands, since it essentially gives each condition under a condition type an equal chance of being true - it assumes you'll be fighting exactly a third of your battles in the morning, a third at day and a third at night, that half of the time the route is swarming, that half of the time you're using the PokéRadar, and that you have a 1/6 chance of having any particular GBA Pokémon game or none at all in the GBA slot. Naturally, this won't realistically be the case, which is why you have the possibility of refreshing the table view.
- Refresh table view
- Unless you are using a particularly ancient browser, there should be a form to the right of all this text that stays in place even when you scroll. In this form, you can select which conditions apply to you at the moment, and then you can press this button on the table for a location you're interested in. This will hide all the irrelevant data, leaving only the slots that will actually be active for you, and also recalculate the statistics section in accordance with the narrowed-down table, giving you exact figures for the average experience and effort points. Note that if you set a condition to be explicitly true when it will revert to the default in some versions but not others, such as if special PokéRadar Pokémon are only defined for Platinum, but not for Diamond and Pearl, then the Diamond and Pearl statistics will be incorrect if you refresh the table view, as they will be assuming the slots to be empty. To get correct figures for Diamond and Pearl in this case, you would have to set the form to "No PokéRadar" and refresh the table view again.

Great Marsh (Area 5)
Where: Go through the house at the top of Pastoria City. Even though you enter at the bottom, the areas are numbered from the top left (the top left area is Area 1, the top right is Area 2, the middle left is Area 3, the middle right is Area 4, the bottom left is Area 5 and the bottom right is Area 6).
Notes: Slots seven and eight, the 5% PokéRadar slots, are both replaced with the Pokémon of the day in each area (chosen randomly for each area every day out of Golduck (D/P only), Roselia, Staravia, Skorupi, Drapion, Croagunk, Toxicroak and Carnivine before getting the National Pokédex, with the possibilities of Paras, Exeggcute, Kangaskhan, Shroomish, Gulpin and Yanma (D/P only) or Kecleon (Platinum only) added after getting the National Dex). Amusingly, it is not actually possible to use the PokéRadar in the Great Marsh; trying to use it in the grass will give you the "There's a time and place for everything!" message you normally get if you try to use the Radar when you're not in grass at all.

Great Marsh (Area 1, Area 2)
Where: Go through the house at the top of Pastoria City. Even though you enter at the bottom, the areas are numbered from the top left (the top left area is Area 1, the top right is Area 2, the middle left is Area 3, the middle right is Area 4, the bottom left is Area 5 and the bottom right is Area 6).
Notes: Slots seven and eight, the 5% PokéRadar slots, are both replaced with the Pokémon of the day in each area (chosen randomly for each area every day out of Golduck (D/P only), Roselia, Staravia, Skorupi, Drapion, Croagunk, Toxicroak and Carnivine before getting the National Pokédex, with the possibilities of Paras, Exeggcute, Kangaskhan, Shroomish, Gulpin and Yanma (D/P only) or Kecleon (Platinum only) added after getting the National Dex). Amusingly, it is not actually possible to use the PokéRadar in the Great Marsh; trying to use it in the grass will give you the "There's a time and place for everything!" message you normally get if you try to use the Radar when you're not in grass at all.

Iron Island (1F)
Where: You sail to it from Canalave.

B1F left is a dead end, but on B1F right, go right and a bit down, up the stairs, continue right, go down the next stairs near the top right corner of the room, go down from there, down around the trainer and up the stairs at the bottom right, then left and on the elevator to get to where you can go down the stairs on the left or right to B2F left or right. B3F is accessed from B2F left: from the stairs, go left to where the first Hiker is, go down from there, left and then down the very narrow path below the oil barrel, which will take you to the right and then down. There will be a staircase on your left; go up that, down past the Ace Trainers and all the way to the bottom, left up the stairs and then onto the elevator. Going left through the cave exit will take you to B3F.

Iron Island (B3F)
Where: You sail to it from Canalave. Just talk to the sailor who is with his boat on a pier on the left side of the canal near the bottom and he'll offer to take you to Iron Island, where this cave is located. 1F is where you enter, B1F left and right are the sections accessed depending on whether you take the left or right staircase down from there. B1F left is a dead end, but on B1F right, go right and a bit down, up the stairs, continue right, go down the next stairs near the top right corner of the room, go down from there, down around the trainer and up the stairs at the bottom right, then left and on the elevator to get to where you can go down the stairs on the left or right to B2F left or right. B3F is accessed from B2F left: from the stairs, go left to where the first Hiker is, go down from there, left and then down the very narrow path below the oil barrel, which will take you to the right and then down. There will be a staircase on your left; go up that, down past the Ace Trainers and all the way to the bottom, left up the stairs and then onto the elevator. Going left through the cave exit will take you to B3F.

Lake Verity (after)
Where: Just by your hometown, as you should remember from the beginning of the game if you're playing Diamond or Pearl. Go up from Twinleaf Town, turn left along Verity Lakefront, and then go up into the forest to Lake Verity. The grass here doesn't need you to Surf to get to it, luckily; it's at the southeastern bank of the lake, which is the one you enter at.
Notes: I really don't know what "Before" and "After" are precisely, but the difference between them is almost absurdly trivial, anyway (the only thing that changes is that Platinum gets a Bidoof in place of a Starly in one slot at night).

Lost Tower (5F)
Where: On Route 209, below Solaceon Town. Just head down from the town and it will be on the right, half-dug into the ground. The floors are all rather straightforward and don't need any elaboration.

Mt. Coronet (Route 211)
Where: In the middle of Sinnoh. The Route 207, Route 211 and Route 216 parts are obviously the parts connected to those respective routes, which are the ones you get to straight from the outside. To get to the "Snowfall" part, go into Mt. Coronet from the Route 207 side (near Oreburgh City), Surf right over that little lake above and proceed towards the wall there, go down and make sure not to go off the ledge as you go right along it and get to the climbable wall, which you should then use Rock Climb on. Go up the stairs there, continue upwards until you come to some ledges, go left all the way to the wall and then down when you're forced to. Get up on the platform to your left and continue immediately up from the stairs. Go left over the bridge, then down the stairs below and then head on up under that bridge you went over earlier, up another set of stairs. Then go up the stairs onto the platform on the right, head right over the bridge there, down the stairs from the platform, be careful not to fall over the ledge as you turn left and go upwards down the next set of stairs, and then finally go up and left across the pit you're in, up the stars in the top left corner and then through the entrance on the top wall. Go up, up the stairs and then up the stairs on the right. Turn upwards and go up yet another flight of stairs. Then turn left as the tunnel turns and then down, and when you're all the way down you'll come to a cave exit which leads you to the aforementioned Snowfall area. Or Blizzard area; they're exactly the same, so I don't technically know which is which and you shouldn't really need to get to the other. Don't ask me exactly how to get to all the other floors or what exactly the "Cave" area is.
Notes: In Mt. Coronet B1F, there is a large underground lake (to get there, enter from the Celestic Town side, go up, push the rock with Strength, head on up the straight path and then follow it left to the staircase, Defog the area, turn up where the path does, and soon you'll be able to go down a staircase on your right to the lake). On this lake, four random tiles, changing every day, will be set to contain Feebas (level 10-20) when you fish. Unlike, well, all the other cases where special additional Pokémon can appear in areas, Feebas does not simply overwrite some rarity slots on the route; my initial theory was that Feebas would overwrite the first slot, but fishing with the Super Rod on a Feebas tile in Diamond got me something more like 50% Feebas, 30% Whiscash and 20% Gyarados, including some in the range of level 30-40 (which is only in the first slot). Therefore, my best guess is that normally when you fish successfully, the game generates a random number between 0 and 99 and then starts an encounter with the Pokémon in the first rarity slot if the random number is between 0 and 59, the second if it's between 60 and 89, the third if it's between 90 and 94, the fourth if it's between 95 and 98, and the fifth if it's 99. When you're on a Feebas tile, however, it will first ignore the rarity slots and simply send you into an encounter with a Feebas if the random number is between 0 and 49; otherwise, the random number yields a Pokémon like it would normally, effectively leading to 50% being "cut off" the 60% rarity slot. Basically, I suggest fishing once in every tile with your chosen Rod. Even though you might miss a Feebas tile, it is hell to try to fish five times on each tile and you really have no time to do that with the whole lake in just one day.

Get up on the platform to your left and continue immediately up from the stairs. Go left over the bridge, then down the stairs below and then head on up under that bridge you went over earlier, up another set of stairs. Then go up the stairs onto the platform on the right, head right over the bridge there, down the stairs from the platform, be careful not to fall over the ledge as you turn left and go upwards down the next set of stairs, and then finally go up and left across the pit you're in, up the stars in the top left corner and then through the entrance on the top wall. Go up, up the stairs and then up the stairs on the right. Turn upwards and go up yet another flight of stairs. Then turn left as the tunnel turns and then down, and when you're all the way down you'll come to a cave exit which leads you to the aforementioned Snowfall area. Or Blizzard area; they're exactly the same, so I don't technically know which is which and you shouldn't really need to get to the other. Don't ask me exactly how to get to all the other floors or what exactly the "Cave" area is.
Notes: In Mt. Coronet B1F, there is a large underground lake (to get there, enter from the Celestic Town side, go up, push the rock with Strength, head on up the straight path and then follow it left to the staircase, Defog the area, turn up where the path does, and soon you'll be able to go down a staircase on your right to the lake). On this lake, four random tiles, changing every day, will be set to contain Feebas (level 10-20) when you fish. Unlike, well, all the other cases where special additional Pokémon can appear in areas, Feebas does not simply overwrite some rarity slots on the route; my initial theory was that Feebas would overwrite the first slot, but fishing with the Super Rod on a Feebas tile in Diamond got me something more like 50% Feebas, 30% Whiscash and 20% Gyarados, including some in the range of level 30-40 (which is only in the first slot). Therefore, my best guess is that normally when you fish successfully, the game generates a random number between 0 and 99 and then starts an encounter with the Pokémon in the first rarity slot if the random number is between 0 and 59, the second if it's between 60 and 89, the third if it's between 90 and 94, the fourth if it's between 95 and 98, and the fifth if it's 99. When you're on a Feebas tile, however, it will first ignore the rarity slots and simply send you into an encounter with a Feebas if the random number is between 0 and 49; otherwise, the random number yields a Pokémon like it would normally, effectively leading to 50% being "cut off" the 60% rarity slot. Basically, I suggest fishing once in every tile with your chosen Rod. Even though you might miss a Feebas tile, it is hell to try to fish five times on each tile and you really have no time to do that with the whole lake in just one day.

Mt. Coronet (Route 216)
Where: In the middle of Sinnoh. The Route 207, Route 211 and Route 216 parts are obviously the parts connected to those respective routes, which are the ones you get to straight from the outside. To get to the "Snowfall" part, go into Mt. Coronet from the Route 207 side (near Oreburgh City), Surf right over that little lake above and proceed towards the wall there, go down and make sure not to go off the ledge as you go right along it and get to the climbable wall, which you should then use Rock Climb on. Go up the stairs there, continue upwards until you come to some ledges, go left all the way to the wall and then down when you're forced to. Get up on the platform to your left and continue immediately up from the stairs. Go left over the bridge, then down the stairs below and then head on up under that bridge you went over earlier, up another set of stairs. Then go up the stairs onto the platform on the right, head right over the bridge there, down the stairs from the platform, be careful not to fall over the ledge as you turn left and go upwards down the next set of stairs, and then finally go up and left across the pit you're in, up the stars in the top left corner and then through the entrance on the top wall. Go up, up the stairs and then up the stairs on the right. Turn upwards and go up yet another flight of stairs. Then turn left as the tunnel turns and then down, and when you're all the way down you'll come to a cave exit which leads you to the aforementioned Snowfall area. Or Blizzard area; they're exactly the same, so I don't technically know which is which and you shouldn't really need to get to the other. Don't ask me exactly how to get to all the other floors or what exactly the "Cave" area is.

Mt. Coronet (4F)
Where: In the middle of Sinnoh. The Route 207, Route 211 and Route 216 parts are obviously the parts connected to those respective routes, which are the ones you get to straight from the outside. To get to the "Snowfall" part, go into Mt. Coronet from the Route 207 side (near Oreburgh City), Surf right over that little lake above and proceed towards the wall there, go down and make sure not to go off the ledge as you go right along it and get to the climbable wall, which you should then use Rock Climb on. Go up the stairs there, continue upwards until you come to some ledges, go left all the way to the wall and then down when you're forced to. Get up on the platform to your left and continue immediately up from the stairs. Go left over the bridge, then down the stairs below and then head on up under that bridge you went over earlier, up another set of stairs. Then go up the stairs onto the platform on the right, head right over the bridge there, down the stairs from the platform, be careful not to fall over the ledge as you turn left and go upwards down the next set of stairs, and then finally go up and left across the pit you're in, up the stars in the top left corner and then through the entrance on the top wall. Go up, up the stairs and then up the stairs on the right. Turn upwards and go up yet another flight of stairs. Then turn left as the tunnel turns and then down, and when you're all the way down you'll come to a cave exit which leads you to the aforementioned Snowfall area. Or Blizzard area; they're exactly the same, so I don't technically know which is which and you shouldn't really need to get to the other. Don't ask me exactly how to get to all the other floors or what exactly the "Cave" area is.
Notes: In Mt. Coronet B1F, there is a large underground lake (to get there, enter from the Celestic Town side, go up, push the rock with Strength, head on up the straight path and then follow it left to the staircase, Defog the area, turn up where the path does, and soon you'll be able to go down a staircase on your right to the lake). On this lake, four random tiles, changing every day, will be set to contain Feebas (level 10-20) when you fish. Unlike, well, all the other cases where special additional Pokémon can appear in areas, Feebas does not simply overwrite some rarity slots on the route; my initial theory was that Feebas would overwrite the first slot, but fishing with the Super Rod on a Feebas tile in Diamond got me something more like 50% Feebas, 30% Whiscash and 20% Gyarados, including some in the range of level 30-40 (which is only in the first slot). Therefore, my best guess is that normally when you fish successfully, the game generates a random number between 0 and 99 and then starts an encounter with the Pokémon in the first rarity slot if the random number is between 0 and 59, the second if it's between 60 and 89, the third if it's between 90 and 94, the fourth if it's between 95 and 98, and the fifth if it's 99. When you're on a Feebas tile, however, it will first ignore the rarity slots and simply send you into an encounter with a Feebas if the random number is between 0 and 49; otherwise, the random number yields a Pokémon like it would normally, effectively leading to 50% being "cut off" the 60% rarity slot. Basically, I suggest fishing once in every tile with your chosen Rod. Even though you might miss a Feebas tile, it is hell to try to fish five times on each tile and you really have no time to do that with the whole lake in just one day.

Go up, up the stairs and then up the stairs on the right. Turn upwards and go up yet another flight of stairs. Then turn left as the tunnel turns and then down, and when you're all the way down you'll come to a cave exit which leads you to the aforementioned Snowfall area. Or Blizzard area; they're exactly the same, so I don't technically know which is which and you shouldn't really need to get to the other. Don't ask me exactly how to get to all the other floors or what exactly the "Cave" area is.
Notes: In Mt. Coronet B1F, there is a large underground lake (to get there, enter from the Celestic Town side, go up, push the rock with Strength, head on up the straight path and then follow it left to the staircase, Defog the area, turn up where the path does, and soon you'll be able to go down a staircase on your right to the lake). On this lake, four random tiles, changing every day, will be set to contain Feebas (level 10-20) when you fish. Unlike, well, all the other cases where special additional Pokémon can appear in areas, Feebas does not simply overwrite some rarity slots on the route; my initial theory was that Feebas would overwrite the first slot, but fishing with the Super Rod on a Feebas tile in Diamond got me something more like 50% Feebas, 30% Whiscash and 20% Gyarados, including some in the range of level 30-40 (which is only in the first slot). Therefore, my best guess is that normally when you fish successfully, the game generates a random number between 0 and 99 and then starts an encounter with the Pokémon in the first rarity slot if the random number is between 0 and 59, the second if it's between 60 and 89, the third if it's between 90 and 94, the fourth if it's between 95 and 98, and the fifth if it's 99. When you're on a Feebas tile, however, it will first ignore the rarity slots and simply send you into an encounter with a Feebas if the random number is between 0 and 49; otherwise, the random number yields a Pokémon like it would normally, effectively leading to 50% being "cut off" the 60% rarity slot. Basically, I suggest fishing once in every tile with your chosen Rod. Even though you might miss a Feebas tile, it is hell to try to fish five times on each tile and you really have no time to do that with the whole lake in just one day.

Mt. Coronet (6F)
Where: In the middle of Sinnoh. The Route 207, Route 211 and Route 216 parts are obviously the parts connected to those respective routes, which are the ones you get to straight from the outside. To get to the "Snowfall" part, go into Mt. Coronet from the Route 207 side (near Oreburgh City), Surf right over that little lake above and proceed towards the wall there, go down and make sure not to go off the ledge as you go right along it and get to the climbable wall, which you should then use Rock Climb on. Go up the stairs there, continue upwards until you come to some ledges, go left all the way to the wall and then down when you're forced to. Get up on the platform to your left and continue immediately up from the stairs. Go left over the bridge, then down the stairs below and then head on up under that bridge you went over earlier, up another set of stairs. Then go up the stairs onto the platform on the right, head right over the bridge there, down the stairs from the platform, be careful not to fall over the ledge as you turn left and go upwards down the next set of stairs, and then finally go up and left across the pit you're in, up the stars in the top left corner and then through the entrance on the top wall.

Old Chateau (2F, 2F left room, 2F leftmost room, 2F middle room, 2F private room, 2F rightmost room, dining room, entrance)
Where: It's the mansion at the top of Eterna Forest. Enter the forest from Eterna City and walking just a bit in will get you to where a few Cuttable bushes above you hide this abandoned manor.
Notes: The room names are quite confusing, but it doesn't matter much since the same Pokémon are found in all of them but one, the "2F right room" with the GBA slot Gengar, which is the fourth room from the left on the second-floor corridor (it's the one with the picture on the walls whose eyes disappear when you're in front of it). The "2F left room", of course, contains the TV that you can interact with (after getting the National Pokédex if you're playing D/P, but whenever you like in Platinum) to battle a level 30 (D/P) or 20 (Platinum) Rotom.

Oreburgh Gate (1F)
Where: It's the cave between Jubilife City and Oreburgh City. It's best to get to it from Oreburgh; it's just on the west side of the town. Getting to B1F requires Rock Smash; you go up that path in the middle of the cave, smash the rocks, and then go on right and down those stairs.
