Wild Zone 15 is located in the northeast of Lumiose City, in the top corner of the Jaune District.

Follow Hibernal Avenue northeast from the Prism Tower, and you'll find this Wild Zone at the city boundary on the right.

How to unlock

You'll unlock Wild Zone 15 after completing Main Mission 19. It's one of two Wild Zones that open at this point, so keep an eye out for Rotom updates to know when they open.

There are 7 Wild Pokémon to hunt down in this area, and you'll need to pay attention to the day/night cycle if you want to catch 'em all.

The recommended entry level for this zone is 40 and above. There's very little room to hide here, so we'd suggest sticking to that recommendation.

Pokémon Type Location
Pumpkaboo Ghost/Grass Hovering over the grassy sections at night
Beedrill Bug/Poison Near the trees in the middle 'forest' section during the day
Whirlipede Bug/Poison By the Zone's middle entrance, near the trees
Scolipede Bug/Poison Near the benches in the middle of the Zone
Haunter Ghost/Poison In the grassy area near the middle of the Zone at night
Shuppet Ghost Near the central forest area at night

If you want to get started on your Tyranitar evolution chain (and we know that you do), then this is your first chance to snag a Larvitar.

If you can't wait to unlock the rooftop, however, then we'd recommend picking up a Haunter here to add a strong Ghost type to your team and move you one step closer to a Mega Gengar.
