If you happen to roll the rarity while looking for the Pokemon, you will meet the Pokemon automatically. I think we all agreed on that.

Also, to ensure people can fairly find the Pokemon they want, I want to propose the ability to increase those chances. Here are some possible methods you can do in-RP.
[list][*]"Spotting" or "hearing" or some other thing anything related to the Pokemon you're looking for. For instance maybe they left behind some kind of clue that they're nearby? Basically include that in your post.
[*]You can ask the next Pokemon you encounter if they've seen a <insert Pokemon you're looking for> or anything like it. This can vary in result, but it can be fun interacting with other Pokemon in a way other than fighting or catching them.
[*]Anything else you can think of.
[/list]

Basically, this is under the logic of, "you won't find it unless you look for it", kind of thing. You may encounter what you want by luck, but you can also vastly increase your chances by actively looking for it.

Exactly what I meant, I wasn't just gonna give myself those pokemon; of course you need to look for them in the locations they are posted at! :)

I just thought when they said random encounter, that we would only have a certian # of encounters per route, and if we didn't find the pokemon we wanted; we are out of luck.

I just want to make sure that at some point I would be able to get my contest dream team that's all :D
