If you’re looking for a specific Pokémon, use CTRL+F (or CMD+F) to search for it! Encounter locations and information are found in the dedicated Encounter Tables PDF included in the game download on Ko-Fi! :)  \nMost outdoor locations have different Day and Night encounter tables. Day encounters are from 7 am to 7 pm in-game, splitting it into clean 12 hour segments. Remember to consider time of day while hunting for Pokémon!  \nDexNav  \nThe DexNav is unlocked by Professor Elia after the 2nd Gym is completed. It functions similar to Pokémon Emerald Seaglass, with holding the A Button to “creep up” to the Pokémon and shiny hunting.  \nDifficulty Modes  \nPokémon Lazarus has a Difficulty Mode setting, which can be changed in the second page of the Options menu alongside various other settings!  \nNormal Mode: Soft Level Caps, Standard Gym Leader teams. Can likely beat the game with most Pokémon teams, with a few battles requiring extra planning.  \nHard Mode: Hard Level Caps, Modified Gym Leaders to be more difficult fights. Opponents gain extra levels as the game progresses, ending in a +5 level bonus to opponents. Planning before Gym battles is key, as their Pokémon have stronger moves and more coverage.  \nBerry System  \nBerries in Pokémon Lazarus work differently than in the traditional Generation 3 games. Instead, the system resembles Pokémon X/Y’s berries, with Mulch and Berry Mutations.  \nThe Wailmer Pail and Berry-related items are obtained from the Jusmail Town Berry Club in Jusmail Town. The eccentric members of the Club sell you Nature Mints, Berries, and Mulch, helping you on your journey in their own ways. You can also unlock rewards for planting certain numbers of berries!  \nRewards:  \n- 20 Berry Trees Planted: 1 Chilan, Haban, and Roseli Berry.  \n- 50 Berry Trees Planted: Level 20 Woobat with Chatter, Draining Kiss, Stuff Cheeks, and Esper Wing (unique moves!)  \n- 100 Berry Trees Planted: 10 Amaze Mulch and a Shiny Charm!  \n- 200 Berry Trees Planted: Potted Berry Decoration. Also adds gold star to Trainer Card! Mutations:  \nBerry mutation allows the player to access damage-reducing berries, which can be key to difficult battles or Nuzlocke challenges. By default, there are only 10 native types of berries found growing naturally: Aspear, Cheri, Chesto, Leppa, Lum, Oran, Pecha, Persim, Rawst, and Sitrus. Growing these trees next to each other has a chance of producing a tree with extra damage-reducing berries on them. The combinations are listed below:  \n- Cheri Berry + Rawst Berry = Occa Berry (halves fire damage)  \n- Chesto Berry + Aspear Berry = Passho Berry (halves water damage)  \n- Oran Berry + Cheri Berry = Wacan Berry (halves electric damage)  \n- Chesto Berry + Rawst Berry = Rindo Berry (halves grass damage)  \n- Aspear Berry + Persim Berry = Yache Berry (halves ice damage)  \n- Sitrus Berry + Leppa Berry = Chople Berry (halves fighting damage)  \n- Pecha Berry + Oran Berry = Kebia Berry (halves poison damage)  \n- Sitrus Berry + Pecha Berry-Shuca Berry (halves ground damage)  \n- Lum Berry + Rawst Berry = Coba Berry (halves flying damage)  \n- Persim Berry + Pecha Berry = Payapa Berry (halves psychic damage)  \n- Leppa Berry + Cheri Berry = Tanga Berry (halves bug damage)  \n- Sitrus Berry + Oran Berry = Charti Berry (halves rock damage)  \n- Lum Berry + Pecha Berry = Kasib Berry (halves ghost damage)  \n- Aspear Berry + Lum Berry = Colbur Berry (halves dark damage)  \n- Cheri Berry + Sitrus Berry = Babiri Berry (halves steel damage)  \nNormal, Dragon, and Fairy damage-halving berries (Chilan, Haban, and Roseli berries) are not obtainable via mutations. Instead, they are rewarded to the player from the Berry Club at 20 trees planted (see list above) .  \nImportant Game Tips  \n- Name Rater: Old Man NPC located in a Pythios Town home.  \n- Move Relearner: There is a Move Relearner NPC in the south of Pythios T","cbCaiilFMdHXzVtx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiilFMdHXzVtx","pdf",2256132,"English","# Pokémon Encounters\n## Encounter tables by location\n## Day and night encounter timing\n## DexNav\n# Difficulty Modes\n## Normal Mode\n## Hard Mode\n# Berry System\n## Mulch and berry mutations\n## Berry tree rewards\n## Mutation combinations\n# Important Game Tips\n## Name Rater\n## Move Relearner\n## Fishing mechanics\n## Farming held items\n## Mega Evolution\n## University students\n# Gym Leaders\n## Gym 1","[{\"question\":\"How are Pokémon encounters organized in Pokémon Lazarus?\",\"answer\":\"Encounters are sorted by location in a dedicated spreadsheet.
