Where to find Rotom

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

Rotom can hatch from a Volt Egg or a Mist 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 Volt Egg can drop on Electricity Hub, Dark Town, Leaf Town, and Foggy Wastelands. The Mist Egg can drop on Frozen Cave, River Rafting, Electricity Hub, 0* Temperature, Leaf Town, and Foggy Wastelands. Put the egg in an incubator to hatch it. See crafting and incubation.
