Tips
- Mirage Island only appears when that day's random number matches a Pokémon or Egg in your party, so it is very rare.
- The old man in the southeastern house in Pacifidlog Town tells you whether the island is visible today.
- Wynaut is the only Pokémon in the island's grass (100%), at levels 5 to 50.
- Plant the Liechi Berry from the island's soft soil to grow more.
- Leave and re-enter the route after the old man says he sees the island; it only updates on entry.
