Wild Pokemon

Common to all main franchise pokemon games you can run into wild pokemon in tall grass, caves, or other places one might find pokemon.

Wild pokemon can be interacted with in a variety of ways in Pokemon Wisteria Online and you can even build up a relationship with the local wild pokemon.

Calmed Wild Pokemon
Giving a ration to a normal wild pokemon will put it in a calmed state. Petting it or playing with it after that will send it back to the wild and improve your wild relationship. A calmed pokemon has a 30% increased chance to be caught compared to normal.

Catching Pokemon
Just like in any of the main pokemon games you are able to catch pokemon. However the difficulty of catching a pokemon scales off of a hidden stat called Power Level. Your Power Level is determined by a number of factors such as how strong your pokemon are and how much information you have.

Your power level gets compared to the pokemon and it determines how likely it will be that you can catch that pokemon.

Invasive Species
When a player releases a pokemon that they no longer wish to own into the wild a small number of that pokemon takes residence in the nearby area. While having a variety of pokemon to choose from might sound like a good thing, it can cause problems for players who aren't ready to deal with that kind of threat in the area to spring up.

Wild Pokemon Death
When criminals use the extract skill on a fainted pokemon it permanently reduces the number of that pokemon in the area. This can result in a pokemon going completely extinct making it not possible to be caught by any players.

Wild Relationship
Petting and playing with wild pokemon increases your wild relationship with that pokemon. Having a high wild relationship increases your chances of finding an egg while taking care of wild pokemon. While you are unable to get eggs without farmer perk, you can still build wild relationship. Note: Catching a pokemon will reset your Wild Friendship with that species of pokemon.
