This will involve special items that can attract Pokemon that would otherwise not appear in the Safari Zone. Once you bring him one he’ll activate a new level of customization. After that, he will ask you for a Sandshrew. In return, he’ll activate the customization ability mentioned in the previous paragraph. The Safari Zone Warden will also have tasks he will assign to you. Each of the six zones features distinctly different Pokemon, so you’ll have to visit them all eventually. This means if all you need to complete the Pokedex is say, a Smeargle, you can set it up so that the Field area of the Safari Zone is right at the entrance, giving you a better chance of catching it. By using your DS stylus and the touch pad, you can move around the order of the six Safari Zones. Remember in the old games where you’d have to waste half your steps just to get to an area where you could hopefully find a Chansey? Well, now the Safari Zone is customizable.


This new Safari Zone is a lot more Trainer friendly however. Your play ends when you run out of either steps or Safari Balls. It’s the biggest and most complex Safari Zone to date, so let’s take a look at what all you’ll have to go through to catch ’em all.įirst of all, the basic premise has stayed the same – you are given thirty Safari Balls and you have a limited number of steps to catch Pokemon with. In Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver, the Safari Zone is back… just in a brand new location. This meant no Safari Zone Pokemon for your character. In the original Pokemon Gold, Silver and Crystal, when your Trainer traveled to Kanto you found that the Safari Zone had moved out of Fuchsia City.
