Pokémon Pokopia Guide | How to Find Missing Pokémon

Losing a Pokémon in Pokémon Pokopia can be frustrating, especially when it is somewhere on the map, and you have no clear idea where it went. The good news is that the game gives you a simple way to find it. If you use the right search method, you can be led straight to the missing Pokémon without wasting time checking random areas.

How to Search for a Missing Pokémon

Start by opening the Pokédex. From there, choose the Pokémon you are trying to find. For example, if you are looking for Onix, select Onix and press the search option. This is the first step that tells the game which Pokémon you want to track.

Once you do that, the next part is choosing a helper Pokémon with the right ability. This is what makes the search work properly.

Use a Flying Pokémon to Track It

After searching in the Pokédex, find a Pokémon that has the Fly ability. In this example, Pidgey is used. Once you pick it, that Pidgey will take you directly to the missing Pokémon, no matter where it is on the map.

This makes the whole process very easy. Instead of guessing where the missing Pokémon went, you let your Flying Pokémon guide you to the exact location. Once you arrive, the missing Pokémon will be right there, and the helper Pokémon will fly back home after leading you there.

Why This Method Works So Well

This is one of the best ways to find a Pokémon that has gone missing or wandered off. If one of your Pokémon has gone on a walk and you cannot find it anywhere, this method saves a lot of time. You do not need to search the whole map by yourself. The game already gives you a direct tracking option through the right helper Pokémon.

That is why this trick is so useful. It turns a frustrating search into a very quick task.

You Can Also Use Teleport

The search trick does not only work with Fly. It also works with the Teleport ability. If you have a Pokémon like Abra, it can help you find the Pokémon you are searching for as well. So, when you are trying to track something down, it is always worth checking whether you have a Flying Pokémon or a Teleport user ready.

That means Pidgey and Abra can both be useful for this job. As long as you remember to use the Pokédex search first, these helper Pokémon can point you in the right direction and make finding missing Pokémon much easier.
