A Pupperai territorial dispute opens with a staredown and closes with one quick strike. Teaching one to |stay| is dangerous work, because the |go| command sets off that same striking instinct.

How to Get Pupperai

Pupperai is Ground, so a Grass attacker takes it down fastest — and a Pal it resists will drag the fight long enough for it to heal or flee.

Wild Pupperai spawn between level 2 and 4. Higher-level ones are markedly harder to hold — take a low one first and come back for the rest when you are stacking a condenser.

Its capture rate is 1.0, which makes it middle of the road: take the health bar down first and aim for its back.

Wild Pupperai Level Range

Wild Pupperai roam at level 2–4 out in the world — plan your spheres and party level around that before hunting one on the interactive map.

Where to Find Pupperai

Pupperai spawn locations in the wild — every marked spot is a known spawn area.

Nearly all of them sit around Grassy Behemoth Hills — 95.7% of the known spots. They come in groups of up to 2, so plan sphere stock for more than one.
