If anyone is interested, it’s because OpenStreetMap registers any body of water with sand as natural=coast
I tested this recently using the pickmin map and it lines up. So even if you’re landlocked you’re not out of luck
Facts, there's a bar near me that has a volleyball court that has sand and a creek behind it, the game registers it as a beach biome. Every time I see it I laugh.
Some gated communities with enough water can become classified as beach biomes. That is how I was able to find a Wiglett. I had to park in the next-door Sam's Club parking lot, activate the signature move from Origin Palkia to reach it., and then catch it since that gated community is members-only.
Stuff like this makes me miss living in South Carolina. By day, I delivered bicycles to guests visiting one or another resort islands, by night, I was riding my own bike around the beaches for hours. Granted, I also had my music playing and occasional pauses for some marijuanas, but I would ride around for hours, catching everything.
I was just looking, and I’ve caught 1,799 magikarp and 22 gyarados. A good majority of them were in South Carolina.
If I may offer a little advice, when riding on or near beaches, make sure your bike has marine grease to lubricate anything that needs it. The salt water and salt in the air rips through everything else.
Marine grease isn’t expensive, usually comes in a goopy tube. It’ll make a huge difference in the longevity of riding in such elements though.
No problemo.
I’ve also used it on skateboards and longboards too, with great benefit.
It helps keep everything moving lol, I wish I could effectively use it on my knees.
I live on the beach and have been getting these non stop for a couple weeks. To the point where I don’t even click on them anymore. I didnt realize they were exclusive to the beach so I was curious as to why this would be a big deal for some people but I understand now lol.
Well that's disappointing to hear. My favorite gym defender is a magmar from 2016 I named "Marcmar" because he looks like kinda like my friend Marc lol. Oh well, still funny for me I guess
I just saw one nearby and put a lure at the pokestop it was at. I've tried lakes and dams and stuff before going to the beach but couldn't find any. Only one appeared at the beach too. But I've heard it's possible for a lake to appear as a beach biome, it just hasn't happened to me before
It's not, it just depends where you live! I really wanted it because it's new, which is why I was so excited. If you live near a beach or on a beach it would be common :D
I have been to the beach in my area so many times and never have I seen one of these. Wish me luck, spending a few hours there tomorrow hoping I can get one!!
I have to piglets, I put one in the gym in town and he lasted 4 days, everyone fed him berries to keep his 10cp up and all the other pokemon were left hungry
NICE! Same here. I just went to [San Diego for vacation.](https://imgur.com/a/Zrs80PW). I was able to catch 2 wigletts. I was also lucked out and caught 2 Hawluchas when I took my son to sesame place. It's like 20 mins from Tijuana. Plus I caught some nice event Shinys.
You can. No one else can judge the depth of your yearning. Sometimes minutes feel like years. super cute and.fun and good psa to pay attention near water!

I’ve never seen one of these ITS ADORABLE
I LOVE IT SO MUCH. It's a new pokemon! Like new all together, not just to pokemon go
I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT 🥰
New, as in it's been over a year and a half
cool!
Yeah still technically new lol
Hence the "finally got it" lol
Love this kind of Pokémon
Wanna see my wiglett?
The judge said no more
I feel like that’s a loaded question 🤣
Well, it's a loaded wiglett
I actually did remove the random line but then I forgot to remove the caption
So is that his mouth or his nose?:O
The pink circle? That's his nose :D
I literally cannot unsee it as his mouth, my brain can’t make it his nose hahah
When you look at it as a mouth, it becomes kirby.
Either that or a swinging door that just swings out of the way to reveal a kerby mouth xD
Initially I saw it as a nose but because you said so, now I’m seeing it as a mouth and i like it better
Made me look around for random line for solid few mins
So you can be bothered to remove the line but not bothered to remove the caption !
I said I forgot to remove the caption 💀
they literally just said they forgot dumbass
Who are you? The town crier or the local jester? 🤡
Ur so weird for responding to this😂😂😂
I haven't even seen this dude on radar. Congrats!
He's only at beaches!
lol I live in a landlocked province so that makes sense now.
Maybe if you find another water place like a lake or dam it might trigger the beach biome?
Apparently some golf courses too maybe
really? that's so weird
They're in the sand traps

Yes lakes do work!
I always see him on my radar down next to the river and the town pool (which is an artificial lake).
Overpassturbo will show you the beach biome. I believe there's already been a post, about how to set it up to run the querry, on this site.
Calgary? I found one at Sikome Lake the last weekend I was in the city.
Thanks for the tip - I never really get out that way but good to know they do spawn in our city :)
Stupid biomes

That sounds so fun!! I got a new bike a few days ago so I can't wait to ride next to beaches and stuff :D

Thank you! I actually had no idea that was a thing
No problemo. I’ve also used it on skateboards and longboards too, with great benefit. It helps keep everything moving lol, I wish I could effectively use it on my knees.
Ohhhhhhhh that’s why I found him yesterday!
i didnt even know these were rare i just happen to live near the sea and randomly caught one a few days ago
I live on the beach and have been getting these non stop for a couple weeks. To the point where I don’t even click on them anymore. I didnt realize they were exclusive to the beach so I was curious as to why this would be a big deal for some people but I understand now lol.
I'll probably get annoyed at them onw day since I live closer to the beach now lmao
Why have u tagged it to hundo when it is 1/2/2?
because wiglett
Understandable
Because she wants to trick her friend list and people at gyms that it’s 4*
Friends list yeah, but nicknames don't show up in gyms
Well that's disappointing to hear. My favorite gym defender is a magmar from 2016 I named "Marcmar" because he looks like kinda like my friend Marc lol. Oh well, still funny for me I guess
There's somebody on Facebook called "Marcmar Marcmar" any relation?
No relation but odd that you would find that lol
That would make it a 5*
Same boat here, got one on Sunday on a random trip to the coast. I didn’t even really know they were available 😂
I've been looking for one since they came out but I couldn't go to the beach for ages
How does one acquire this dancing albino clown penis?
lmao he's at the beach (or other watery places sometimes)
“Wazzup my Wiglett”
...
That aint no hundo
he definitely is
We live in Colorado so we had to find swim beaches connected to lakes and reservoirs to get ours too! Congrats
Beaches only? Or lakes too? I want oneeee
Only in the beach I think, but sometimes things like lakes can show up as a beach on pokemon go. Someone said even golf courses do sometimes
you can get them at lakes too :)
You caught a Dilly Willy
Nice 😁
I hope to get one soon. I’m by many rivers and lakes haha but none have appeared. How do I get one to appear?
I just saw one nearby and put a lure at the pokestop it was at. I've tried lakes and dams and stuff before going to the beach but couldn't find any. Only one appeared at the beach too. But I've heard it's possible for a lake to appear as a beach biome, it just hasn't happened to me before
Why did you put it as 4* when it is 0
wiglett 👍
I didn’t know wiglett was rare 😭 I transferred mine
It's not, it just depends where you live! I really wanted it because it's new, which is why I was so excited. If you live near a beach or on a beach it would be common :D
Just went on vacation to a beach, unfortunately I live in a place where beaches are not a thing haha. Whoopsie
It's ok! Pokemon go sometimes mistakes other bodies of water for the beach biome. Try a lake, swamp, dam, or a golf course apparently lmao
I kinda forgot he existed. How do you supposedly get one?
he's at beaches!
Ohhh, that explains.
I was at the beach last week and found one on my nearby. While I was on a ferry.
I am sooooooo jelly!!! Where were you? Did it take an ACTUAL BEACH??
I went to the beach, but I've heard some people have got them at lakes
Anything special about this one?
hes silly
That thing is fuck ugly
he's very wigletty tho
Are they rare
depends on where you live
On holiday in Málaga I've seen like 4 so far!
Snek kirby
AWW SO CUTE
Looks like the glowing worm things from the Elden ring dlc trailer
I caught one a few weeks ago at Kauffman Stadium next to the fountains. They thought I was at a beach!
It reminds me of the salamander from Monsters Inc with those lips 😂
I went on a cruise last month to the Bahamas and didn’t see a single one. 😑 Lucky!
The Penis Pokémon
I have been to the beach in my area so many times and never have I seen one of these. Wish me luck, spending a few hours there tomorrow hoping I can get one!!
Still waiting on one and I live 5 mins from a state park/beach but just haven't had the time to go.
I have to piglets, I put one in the gym in town and he lasted 4 days, everyone fed him berries to keep his 10cp up and all the other pokemon were left hungry
I saw the shadow of one once and could not go get it. I’ve been sad ever since
I had one and accidentally transferred it because it was 0 stars
I got one couple weeks ago.. funniest poke ever 😅
I’m going to a lake this weekend, I really hope he shows up I would die happy
I got my first one today too!
I caught one at the beach this past weekend and accidentally transferred it. So sad.😭
I got 2 on a recent beach holiday. I did a snapshot for a research and realised he is huge.
I was Micky with him since i was on vacation to Crete when he was released, without my trip i still wouldn't have one
And a hundo too, incredible! Congrats!
I’ve never found one. I was fortunate enough to have a friend who caught one for me. Work on that evolution!
NICE! Same here. I just went to [San Diego for vacation.](https://imgur.com/a/Zrs80PW). I was able to catch 2 wigletts. I was also lucked out and caught 2 Hawluchas when I took my son to sesame place. It's like 20 mins from Tijuana. Plus I caught some nice event Shinys.
It’s basically just water diglet
Congratulations 🍾 🥂
They're so rare to me, congratulations :D on my 11day vacation in egypt I got my hands on only two
You lucky lucky person I have been trying for ages ahhhhhh
It took me so long haha i got mine too! Woo!
😎 I have yet to catch one
Nice. I caught my 18th today.
Okay.
whoa a hundo your so lucky
Why do people say they FINALLY caught a pokemon that's just been introduced to the game??
why cant I?
You can. No one else can judge the depth of your yearning. Sometimes minutes feel like years. super cute and.fun and good psa to pay attention near water!
Thank you!! I've been looking for it since it came out. Even though it's only been about two months, I still finally got it :D
