Some monsters in Pokémon GO are regionally restricted and only available in certain countries – We show you which the regional Pokémon are and where you can find them.
To complete your collection in Pokémon GO, you need to catch many different Pokémon. However, some of these Pokémon are exclusive to certain countries and regions and therefore cannot be found in Germany, for example. From the first generation, Tauros, Pantimos, Porenta, and Kangama belong to these special monsters. With the release of the second generation, more Pokémon are now exclusively available in certain countries.
Regional Exclusive Pokémon
To catch all monsters in Pokémon GO, one must travel the world. This applies to both wild Pokémon and Pokémon that hatch from eggs. It is not possible for regional Pokémon to hatch from eggs if you have not obtained those eggs in the corresponding country. A Kangama cannot hatch from an egg that you found in Germany, but only from eggs that were found in Australia and its surroundings. The current locations for regional Pokémon:
- Europe: Pantimos
- North America: Tauros
- Australia: Kangama
- Asia: Porenta
Regional Pokémon of the 2nd generation:
- Latin America, South Florida, and Texas: Skaraborn
- Tropics: Corasonn
The exact locations of the new Pokémon are still being determined. Niantic has not released any official information on this topic, leaving trainers to discover where they can find the special monsters on their own. The shown map summarizes the collected data by Reddit user oktimeforplanb. Notably, Corasonn has been found between latitudes 31N and 26S according to preliminary results. Trainers are now searching for further spawn points of Corasonn to create a more accurate map.
Therefore, anyone who wants to have their PokéDex complete must visit many different places around the world. In America, one even has the chance to encounter three of the regional Pokémon, while here in Europe there is only one. We will update the article if there are more details.
