Roaming KantoStatic encounter
Lv. 50
Only appears if your starter was Bulbasaur; one beast per save. Starts roaming Kanto's grass after the Hall of Fame once the Network Machine quest on One Island is done. It can be shiny, but that is fixed when it starts roaming, so save before finishing the quest and reset from there. The Switch release fixed the old bug where the beast vanished for good after using Roar; the low-IV roaming bug is reported to remain.
