SV Encounterbots

Working Proof-of-Concept for extra bots for Scarlet/Violet.

Everything on the official SysBot.NET wiki about Encounter Bot applies.

Outbreak Finder (EncBotOutbreakFinder)

This program changes the date on your Switch and then checks all regular outbreaks in Paldea, Kitakami, and Blueberry for a match. The program was designed as a research tool, so it will log the species and location of all outbreaks found. If you wish to contribute your logs, you can reach out to me on X/Twitter as Sibuna_Switch.

The date skip routine has a tendency to accidentally change your Switch console language to German, which triggers a reboot. You can change it beforehand if you want to avoid this mishap.

General Setup

• Stand close to where the desired Pokémon normally spawns. It is not currently known how close you must stand.
• You can optionally use Encounter Power for your desired Pokémon to increase the chance that it appears. Make sure you have this active before starting the program.
• After opening X menu, make sure your cursor is over a Pokémon to reduce the effects of accidental bad clicks.
• Start the program with no menus open with your character on the overworld.

Settings

• Use the StopOnSpecies and StopOnForm (optional) fields to select the Pokémon you want to target. If a target form is not set, then it will not be checked. Set this up before you start the bot. To change to another species/form, you will have to remove the bot and re-add it.
