Hawlucha is a Fighting and Flying-Type Pokémon that was first introduced in Pokémon X and Y. [1] Hawlucha can be a valuable asset to your team, though catching it in Pokémon X and Y may be difficult, since there aren't many places where it can be found. Fortunately, this wikiHow will teach you how to catch Hawlucha in Pokémon X and Y.

Steps

  1. Hawlucha's catch rate is around average, so you'll want to bring Great and/or Ultra Pokéballs with you to have the best possible chance of catching it. [2]
    • If you'd like to try and catch Hawlucha immediately when the encounter begins, then you can also bring a few Quick Pokéballs with you.
  2. Because Hawlucha is a Flying and Fighting-Type Pokémon, it is weak to those types of moves. [3]
    • Unless it is holding an Iron Ball or Ring Target, affected by Ingrain or Smack Down, or the move Gravity is in effect (in which case these types of moves have a normal level of effectiveness), Hawlucha is immune to Ground-Type moves, so be sure to keep that in mind. [4]

  3. As mentioned in the introduction, there aren't many locations where Hawlucha can be found. In Pokémon X and Y, Hawlucha can be found on Route 10 (Menhir Trail) or in the Flying-Type Friend Safari. [5]
    • The location you choose to go to is up to you, but note that Hawlucha's encounter rate is slightly higher in the Friend Safari. [6]
  4. Once you've decided on a location, walk around in the grass and flower areas located there. Although it may take a few minutes (and you may end up encountering other Pokémon first), you should eventually encounter a Hawlucha.
  5. This will make catching it easier.
    • Be careful when using moves intended to poison or burn. If these moves succeed in poisoning or burning Hawlucha, it will slowly lose health, in which case you'll need to catch it quickly, or it may end up fainting.
    • Moves like False Swipe are great to use, since they're guaranteed to leave Hawlucha with at least 1 HP.
  6. Once Hawlucha's health is at about half or less, throw a Pokéball. Although it may take a few tries, you should eventually succeed at catching Hawlucha.

      Tips

      • Hawlucha does not currently evolve from or into any other Pokémon, so you don't need to worry about catching a pre-evolution or meeting any evolutionary requirements. [7]
      • Occasionally, if its health gets low enough, Hawlucha may call for help. If this happens (and Hawlucha is successful), you'll need to defeat the other Pokémon that appears before you'll be able to catch Hawlucha.
