About the Training Planner
A training planner that recommends wild-encounter routes for the exact Pokémon, level, and moveset you enter — not a generic list of “good EXP spots.” Routes are scored by how close the wild Pokémon there are to your level, with grounded (walk/cave) spots prioritized over water-only encounters.
Useful for grinding a specific Pokémon to 100 for competitive prep, or leveling carefully mid-run so you don't walk into a gym under-leveled on a Nuzlocke. Add your Pokémon's moves and PartyDex highlights routes where you've got a type advantage over what's wandering around there, so you can level faster — or safer — instead of guessing.
How It Works
- Pick a game and search for your Pokémon.
- Set its level — recommendations update to spots with wild Pokémon close to that level.
- Optionally add its moves — routes get a type-advantage highlight where you outclass the wild encounters there.
- Pick from the top recommended routes, sorted grounded-first with encounter rates shown per Pokémon.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does it decide which routes to recommend?
It looks for routes where wild Pokémon are within about 10 levels of the level you enter, prioritizes routes you can reach on foot (not surf/fishing-only spots), and sorts by how close the match is.
What does the type-advantage highlighting do?
If you add your Pokémon's moves, routes are flagged where your moveset has a type edge over the wild Pokémon commonly found there — useful for one-shotting encounters instead of grinding through resisted hits.
Which games are supported?
All main-series games from Generation I through Generation IX, using that game's actual wild encounter tables.
Does it show encounter rates?
Yes. Each recommended route lists its top wild Pokémon with their encounter percentage and level range for that game.
Is this useful for a Nuzlocke run?
Yes — pair it with the Nuzlocke tracker to find a safe leveling spot before a gym fight instead of over- or under-leveling into it.
Can I use it to level a Pokémon to 100 for competitive play?
Yes. Set the level to whatever you're grinding toward and it'll surface the highest-level routes available in that game, prioritizing walkable spots.
What if no routes are close to my level?
It falls back to the highest-level spots actually available in that game, still preferring walkable routes over water-only ones, so you're not left with nothing.
