Snover Location
- Time: Day/Night
Snover are found near the large playground area in the southeastern section of Wild Zone 12. They are highly aggressive and will attack on sight.
Snorunt Location
- Time: Day/Night
Nearly a dozen Snorunt roam the center of Wild Zone 12, out on the open snow. All Snorunt evolve into Glalie at level 42, but female Snorunt can evolve into Froslass using a Dawn Stone. If you’re looking to catch a Snorunt to get Froslass to try out its new Mega form, you’ll need to catch a female.
Pay attention to the symbols above a Snorunt’s health bar. The blue icon means it’s a male and the red icon means it's a female.
Vanillite Location
- Time: Day/Night
There is one Vanillite floating near the Snorunt in the center of Wild Zone 12. Another one is found near the Bergmite (detailed below).
Machop Location
- Time: Day/Night
Two Machop can be found in the Pokemon battle arena, in the northern part of Wild Zone 12. To get to them, you’ll need to destroy the boulders blocking the way.
Machoke Location
- Time: Day/Night
A single Machoke is standing in the battle arena, alongside the two Machop.
The Ice Beam TM can be picked up directly in the middle of this arena, guarded by the Machoke. This is crucial to complete Main Mission 19.
Gogoat Location
- Time: Day/Night
There are two Gogoat in Wild Zone 12. One is standing near the grassy section in the northeastern corner, and another is roaming near the tall iceberg and trees near the center of the zone.
Delibird Location
- Time: Day/Night
One Delibird can be encountered near the southern gate, and another is found next to the caged-off battle arena with the Machoke, near the boulders.
Delibird are very skittish and will run away immediately if spotted. Instead of trying to OHKO them, use a Quick Ball. The other Pokemon in the area are very aggressive and will interrupt any attempt at sneaking up to it.
If you’re trying to get a Delibird to spawn in, fast travel to Wild Zone 12, enter, and look left. If you spot a Delibird, throw a Pokeball, otherwise, repeat from the start. Each time you fast travel, the spawns in the location reset.
Bergmite Location
- Time: Day/Night
Near the southern entrance of Wild Zone 12 are a few stairs that go down a level, near the Delibird spawn location. Go down and use a Fire-type attack on it to melt the ice structure, transforming it into a bridge you can use to cross the water. There are two Bergmite, one near the bridge and another a bit further along the path.
Alpha Abomasnow Location
- Time: Day/Night
A level 44 Alpha Abomasnow is roaming the area near the battle arena. Fire-type attacks are 4x super effective against it.
Alpha Avalugg Location
- Time: Day/Night
A level 54 Alpha Avalugg is swimming near the second Bergmite. It is extremely tanky and highly aggressive. Use Fighting or Fire-type moves against it.
An Ice Stone can be picked up at the end of the ice path that hugs the wall around the pool of water Avalugg resides in.
