Pokemon GO’s Number 352: Getting to Know Kecleon
Kecleon, number 352 in the Pokedex, is one of the more intriguing Pokemon that made its way into Pokemon GO. This color-changing chameleon Pokemon finally debuted in early 2023 after years of anticipation from the player community.
How to Find Kecleon
Unlike most Pokemon in the game, Kecleon has a unique spawn mechanism that pays homage to its behavior in the main series games. You won’t just find it wandering around like other Pokemon – it’s actually invisible! To spot Kecleon, you’ll need to interact with PokeStops. When you spin a PokeStop, there’s a chance a hidden Kecleon might be clinging to the photo disc. If present, you’ll need to tap it to make it visible and initiate the encounter.
Battle Capabilities
As a Normal-type Pokemon, Kecleon isn’t exactly a powerhouse in Pokemon GO’s battle system. It has a maximum CP of 1,611, which puts it squarely in the middle tier of Pokemon. However, what makes it interesting is its ability “Color Change” from the main series games, though this feature isn’t currently implemented in Pokemon GO.
Best Moves
If you’re planning to use Kecleon in battles, its optimal moveset includes:
– Fast Move: Lick
– Charged Move: Foul Play
Collection Value
While it might not be the strongest battler, Kecleon holds significant value for collectors. Its unique catching mechanism makes it one of the more challenging Pokemon to add to your collection, and many trainers see it as a badge of honor to have caught one.
Tips for Catching Kecleon
Here’s a little insider tip I’ve learned from hunting Kecleon: when you’re out playing, make sure to check PokeStops thoroughly. Don’t just quick-spin and move on – take a moment to look for that subtle distortion that might indicate a hidden Kecleon. I’ve found that visiting busy areas with lots of PokeStops increases your chances of encountering one.
Remember, patience is key with this Pokemon. Unlike regular spawns that you can track with nearby radar, finding Kecleon requires a bit of luck and persistence. Think of it as a hide-and-seek champion that’s testing your dedication as a trainer!
Whether you’re a dedicated collector or just trying to fill out your Pokedex, Kecleon represents one of the more unique catching experiences in Pokemon GO. Its special mechanics and relative rarity make it a worthwhile target for any trainer looking to experience everything the game has to offer.
