Find Wingull’s Ruby/Sapphire encounters, original Water/Flying typing, Generation III stats, ability slots, evolutions, breeding and exact-version moves.

Edition covered

Original Pokémon Ruby Version and Pokémon Sapphire Version for Game Boy Advance. Version-specific encounters and story roles are labelled. Emerald and the Nintendo 3DS remakes have separate rules and progression.

Generation III identity and base stats

Wingull is Hoenn #027 and National #278. Its original Ruby/Sapphire typing is Water / Flying. The picture and base stats describe its original Generation III form on Game Boy Advance. Later Fairy typing, stat increases and evolutions are excluded.

Base stats describe the species; level, IVs, EVs and nature determine an individual’s actual battle stats.

Where to obtain it in Ruby and Sapphire

Match the game version, area and method before traveling. Ordinary grass, fishing, gifts, fossil revival and trades are separate acquisition routes.

These records include only Ruby and Sapphire. Story flags, field moves, historical access and exceptional encounters retain their conditions; a listed location is not necessarily open on a new save.

Evolution family and original requirements

Wingull original Hoenn evolution family
From	Into	Ruby / Sapphire method
Wingull	Pelipper	Level 25

Friendship evolution uses the original threshold of 220. Trade evolutions require a compatible second game and system. These are original cartridge methods: Feebas uses Beauty, Wurmple uses personality and Nincada can create an extra party member.

All original Hoenn evolution methods

Abilities, breeding and training reference

Wingull original ability slots
Ability	Slot
Keen Eye	Regular slot 1

Ruby/Sapphire have no Hidden Abilities. Many abilities gained additional battle or overworld effects in later games; use the original effect in the linked ability reference.

Wingull breeding and training facts
Property	Value
Gender ratio	50% female / 50% male
Egg group(s)	Water 1 / Flying
Base hatch cycles	20
Experience growth	Medium Fast
Base capture rate	190 /255 (not a percentage chance)
EV yield when defeated	Speed +1

Use the Route 117 Day Care. Eggs hatch at Lv.5; Undiscovered-group Pokémon do not breed. Incense changes the baby result for the Marill and Wobbuffet families. Ruby/Sapphire do not have Emerald’s Everstone nature inheritance or Volt Tackle breeding, and no native Ditto catch is available.

Original breeding, EV, IV and nature rules

Ruby and Sapphire level-up moves

Wingull exact Ruby/Sapphire level-up learnset
Level	Move
1 / starting move	Growl
1 / starting move	Water Gun
7	Supersonic
13	Wing Attack
21	Mist
31	Quick Attack
43	Pursuit
55	Agility

Every row uses the original Ruby/Sapphire version group. Lv.1 entries include starting or reminder moves; a caught specimen need not know all listed moves. The Fallarbor Move Reminder charges a Heart Scale for an eligible level-up move.

Compatible TMs and HMs

Wingull compatible original machines
Machine	Move	Type	Original category
TM06	Toxic	Poison	Status
TM07	Hail	Ice	Status
TM14	Blizzard	Ice	Special
TM17	Protect	Normal	Status
TM21	Frustration	Normal	Physical
TM27	Return	Normal	Physical
TM42	Facade	Normal	Physical
TM44	Rest	Psychic	Status
TM45	Attract	Normal	Status
TM46	Thief	Dark	Special
HM02	Fly	Flying	Physical

Original TMs are consumed after use; HMs are reusable and require the relevant badges for field use. The Lilycove Move Deleter can remove HM moves. Generation III assigns damaging moves by type: Normal, Fighting, Flying, Poison, Ground, Rock, Bug, Ghost and Steel use Attack; Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, Psychic, Ice, Dragon and Dark use Sp. Atk. Status moves remain status moves.

All 50 TM and 8 HM locations

Egg moves and original move services

Recorded Ruby/Sapphire Egg moves: Agility, Gust, Mist, Twister, Water Sport.

The father passes eligible Egg moves and compatible TM/HM moves; both parents knowing an eligible level-up move can also pass it. The Fallarbor reminder does not teach arbitrary Egg moves. Emerald’s additional move tutors and Battle Frontier are absent from Ruby/Sapphire.

For this Pokémon’s types, damaging Water moves are special; Flying moves are physical. A move’s individual modern damage class must not replace the original type rule.
