#POKEMON BLACK 2 SHAKING GRASS PATCH#
Audino can be found in any patch of rustling grass. Rustling grass allows the encounter of a wild Pokémon. Rustling grass is a phenomenon that only occurs in tall grass. The audio of a phenomenon reflects the distance between it and the player: if the player is close, the sound will be louder, and if the player is farther away (such as if the phenomenon is off-screen), the sound will be fainter but will also never stop. An active phenomenon is not saved when the game is saved.ĭifferent phenomena are distinguished in-game by audio and visual effects in most cases, they are named for the visual effect shown on-screen when each phenomenon occurs. Using a Repel does not prevent wild Pokémon from being encountered in a phenomenon.
A phenomenon will vanish after it is encountered or if the player picks up a visible item, encounters a wild Pokémon, interacts with an NPC, or exits the area or room entirely it will also vanish if an NPC steps on it. An active phenomenon will generally continue to exist if the player moves away from it so long as they stay in the same overall location or room. Phenomena will only appear after the player has the first Badge.Ī phenomenon can be randomly triggered whenever the player takes a step in an area.
Some Pokémon can only be obtained via this method. There are four types of phenomena: rustling grass, dust clouds, flying Pokémon's shadows, and rippling water. Phenomena are a means of encountering wild Pokémon, and in some cases items.
