Where to obtain it in Black and White
Check the version and method columns before travelling. An encounter listed as a gift or stationary interaction does not mean Panpour appears in ordinary grass. Level ranges combine matching slots within the same recorded condition.
The following records are filtered to Black and White. The table preserves separate seasons and special conditions. These are documented locations, not a promise that every encounter is available at the start of the story.
Encounter methods · Legendary and event requirements · Gifts, fossils and trades

Friendship evolution uses the original Generation V threshold. Trades require a compatible second game and system; trading an Everstone holder prevents the evolution.
Abilities and breeding reference
| Ability | Slot / availability |
|---|---|
| Gluttony | Regular ability |
| Torrent | Hidden slot; historical availability must be checked |
A Hidden Ability in the data is not proof of an obtainable original-game specimen. Some Hidden Abilities were never released in Generation V; the starter Contrary/Reckless/Shell Armor slots and Litwick-line Shadow Tag cannot be treated as ordinary Black/White catches.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Gender ratio | 12.5% female / 87.5% male |
| Egg group(s) | Field |
| Base hatch cycles | 20 |
| Experience growth | Medium Fast |
| Base capture rate | 190 / 255 (not a percentage chance) |
| EV yield when defeated | Speed +1 |
The No Eggs / Undiscovered group cannot produce Eggs. An Egg move must be inherited through an eligible parent in these original games; it is not automatically learned by every caught specimen.

Use the exact Black or White method and condition before hunting Panpour. Event prerequisites and evolution-only species need a different collection plan from ordinary wild encounters.
