Expanded Wild Pokemon has been discontinued

Pokemon Compass contains significantly enhanced features and updates to what we started with Expanded Wild Pokemon.

As of Pokémon Scarlet/Violet version 1.2.0 there will no longer be any updates to Expanded Wild Pokemon.

Scarlet/Violet Version Compatibility

Expanded Wild Pokémon is only compatible with Pokémon Scarlet/Violet version 1.0.1 and 1.1.0.

All of the wild spawns have been added into reasonably natural biomes and level ranges that you would more or less expect to find them in.

Pokémon added in with this mod are going to be more rare than the existing Paldean spawns, but shouldn't affect existing spawns significantly.

With a few other features like No Version Exclusives, adding alternate Evolution paths for Pokémon that evolve via Trade and Co-Op, adding in all 20 patterns of Vivillons along with the Scatterbug/Spewpas that evolve into them.

Trade/Co-Op Evolution Adjustments

Pokémon with Trade or Co-Op evolutions have had an alternateevolutionary path added.

Pokémon → Evolution Method → Result

Slowpoke → Level Up Holding Destiny Knot → Slowking
Haunter → Use Dusk Stone → Gengar
Scyther → Level Up Holding Destiny Knot → Scizor
Finizen → Level Up Holding Power Bracer @ Level 38 → Palafin

New Items for Sale

Note for people upgrading to the latest version of Expanded Wild Pokemon:
Strange Mirror has been changed from the previous item Meadow Plate as this was causing issues for people who PKHeX'd Arceus into their save.
Soothe Bell has been turned into the Strange Mirror as of version 1.1.0 as the original item is functionally useless and will not interfere with other Pokemon.
If you had any Strange Mirrors in your inventory from 1.0.7 these items will have been reverted to Meadow Plates. There isn't any way for me to automatically convert the items to the new one unfortunately.

Vivillon Restoration

The world is now colorful again. All 20 Vivillon patterns have been restored to the wild.
Spewpas can also evolve into any patterned Vivillon.

A Note on Box Legendaries

The extra box Legendary at the end has not been put in.
If you wish to obtain the box legendaries I would suggest looking at our other mod Pokemon Compass which is a romhack geared towards a vanilla-enhanced experience with a new progression that manually reworks every NPC battle, adds over 200 new raids including custom 7★ event raids, makes every HOME Pokémon available, removes version exclusivity, and a lot more!

Online Legality / Ban Warning
Most, if not all, of these Pokémon are not currently accessible in-game through normal means until HOME releases in Spring 2023.

If you play online via Wi-Fi and/or enter matches online you do so at your own risk.
