Where to find Lanturn

Lanturn is not a wild encounter on any of the standard maps.

Lanturn can hatch from a River Egg or a Volt Egg. Now and then an encounter on a map turns up an egg instead of a wild Pokémon, and which eggs a map can drop depends on its types. The River Egg can drop on Frozen Cave, River Rafting, 0* Temperature, Desert Beach, and Wild Desert. The Volt Egg can drop on Electricity Hub, Dark Town, Leaf Town, and Foggy Wastelands. Put the egg in an incubator to hatch it. See crafting and incubation.
