Spawn location

A Pokémon's spawn location determines which environment(s) it can spawn in. This includes Land, Water, Seafloor, Tree Top, Air, Underground, Indoors, Manmade Surface Water, and Underground Water. Some Pokémon are able to spawn in multiple spawn locations.

Spawn location is not to be confused with spawn biome, which is another factor determining where Pokémon can spawn.

Note: Although several Pokémon cannot spawn naturally, these Pokémon are still affected by spawn location when spawned by Pixelmon spawners or if modified to spawn naturally through means such as the External JSON files.
