Where to find Sunkern
Sunkern is not a wild encounter on any of the standard maps.
Sunkern can hatch from a Forest Egg, a Bloom Egg or a Common 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 Forest Egg can drop on Black Forest, Safari Zone, Jungle, Leaf Town, and Legend of Dawn. The Bloom Egg can drop on Black Forest, Lava Beach, Jungle, Leaf Town, and Legend of Dawn. The Common Egg can drop on Black Forest, 0* Temperature, Jungle, Leaf Town, Reborn Surface, and Legend of Dawn. Put the egg in an incubator to hatch it. See crafting and incubation.
