Because Pokémon Go Tour: Hoenn is an event focused around the entirety of the Hoenn region, Gen III Pokémon are appearing all over the place. Thankfully, the increased encounters are split between habitat rotations, all of which have Pokémon Go Tour: Hoenn Collection Challenges to complete too.

Whether you’re dragging yourself through the desert or walking along ancient shores, there is content themed around various locations that will involve specific Pokémon encounters.

The habitats rotate each hour on the hour, with each one bringing different Pokémon to players at an increased rate. There are also two special habitats that will only be unlocked as part of the Primal Pokémon content going on, though they are less important and only feature a handful of specific Pokémon.
