Where to find Swinub
Swinub is not a wild encounter on any of the standard maps.
Swinub can hatch from a Frozen Egg, a Mirage 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 Frozen Egg can drop on Frozen Cave, River Rafting, Lava Beach, and 0* Temperature. The Mirage Egg can drop on River Rafting, Desert Beach, Foggy Wastelands, and Wild Desert. 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.
