Zorua: I need help...

[Ackalacka]

I've looked everywhere and I have just found people saying to go search in all of the alleys while it's night time and raining.

Well, I've done that (10 times, give or take) and have come up with absolutely nothing. Do I need to do something / talk to someone to activate the event? I'm not sure, and I REALLY would appreciate some actually assistance on this issue as I have found nothing looking around the website... I have four badges, if that matters at all... I've heard Zorua is level 25 when you get it, so I'm pretty sure I don't need to get more badges to activate the event...

This is seriously staring to drive me crazy. Good Pokemon seem extremely difficult to come by in this game, and Zorua/Zoruark are powerful (decently, any way) and they're some of my favorites from 5th Gen. Again, help would be wonderful.

P.S., Do you just have to run around in the alleys and wait to randomly encounter him, or will there be an NPC somewhere in the alley?

[strhally3]

there will be a npc in the area, but i dont think it has to be raining

[Ackalacka]

Thanks. Now I at least know what to look for. <

[Ackalacka]

I've heard you encounter it after beating the Magma Gang leader, but I joined the Magma Gang... I'm so lost. -.-"

[Amethyst]

To clarify one thing, which Gang you join will have no effect on the availability of alley-based Pokemon such as Zorua. As long as you're in that alley under the right conditions, you can get it.

[Joyrich]

I think the condition is Nighttime and windy which is when I encountered it and a Zangoose.

[ninet@ils]

how do you tell if it's windy? i don't think i've ever seen it and only seen rain/thunder/sunny/clear

[Amethyst]

Admittedly, I don't have a particle for windy days yet (realllly wish I could get my hands on the effect in Newbark town in HGSS) so your best indications are other things changing, such as the hoppip

[Nickaboo92]

The way I tell if it's windy is that the pidove/murkrow on the rooftops are gone on windy days.

[Joyrich]

I usually just look for flying hoppips by the first entrance to the slums.

[Ackalacka]

Ah, so it has to be windy? OK, I'll just change the date on my Computer to Tuesday (because I remember it was windy on Tuesday). Hopefully that will work. Thanks for the help guys, I'll let you know if I am successful. If I'm not, I'm going to throw my laptop out my window...

[Ackalacka]

HOLY SWEET MOTHER OF JESUS YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!! FINALLY I FOUND HIM!!!

Thank you Joyrich! You are literally the only person who ever suggested to look for him when it's windy. Again, thank you so much.

[Ackalacka]

Also, thank you Ameythyst for your clarification about the gangs, and for making the game in the first place. Highly appreciated.

Glad to help. But Bro I after I found him once I never saw him again under any weather conditions its like he went poof. Can you tell me everywhere he went before you actually caught him? Because it's really frustrating I've checked every alley top to bottom in all conditions but i've only seen him once.

AWWWW YEAAAA HOPPIPS. I caught about 20 of them when i saw them

[MemoryOrFantasy]

Yeah, I need help with zorua, I only found it as a murkrow after defeating the gang leader and I have not been able to find it since.

[Joyrich]

It has to be daytime and you'll find it in the Northern Alley in the Peridot Ward. He'll be disguised as a Zangoose. Gl

[LiamJamesDavies]

Do you have to beat the magma leader first? i found him in their base as a murkrow without beating him and now i cant find him, help!!

Look in the other alleyways in Obsidia and Peridot. You have to chase him around a bit before he eventually battles you.

I found a Zangoose looking through the trash. Problem? It was an actual Zangoose. =(

Got my Zorua! ^__^
Rash Nature; good enough for me! <3

[Crimson]

congrats. i think i need to catch one for my team this time

[Crimson]

I already encountered it as a murkrow then i cant find it again anywhere, i change my calendar date after that, did the changing of calender date make the event for catching Zorua invalid?? will i get another chance to activate the event agan??

Make sure its a clear day.
