    What are the rates for encountering the Pokemon Backlot claims are in his garden?

    I was walking around for two hours yesterday (while waiting at the bank) in the garden and didn't find a single Minun, which was yesterday's Pokemon (did see a few Bonsly, from the day before).
     
    Are you using the Radar or just running around?
     
    I belive using radar going to the shiny patches are easier but not sure
     
    That's how I've made my catches up until today. Today was the first time I had to catch the Pokemon that I was after without using the Radar. Everytime I used it, I got Staravia, but I was after the Porygon. FINALLY, I got my Porygon.
     
    I just walk around the garden for about 10 minutes and it gives me the pokemon that Backlot told me.

    I use a combination of the two. Use the radar, get a Roselia or Staravia usually, then walk around in the grass while recharging it.

    Guess I'm just supposed to have horrid luck with swarms/mansion lately. I had to restart 10 times yesterday to not get a Sinnoh Dex Pokemon in the garden.
     
    I dont think your suppose to use the radar, thats why. Its going to take a long time, thats what the word rare means in this case

    I had to just suck it up and trade for two of the "Swarm Pokemon" that I wanted. Smoochum and Surskit. I couldn't take it anymore. Day after day after day with no luck. At least with the TG you can reset.
     
    I bought the game day one. Probably finished with the Elite 4 a week later at most. I've been going to the TG since and today marks the very first day I've gotten Bonsly! I just gave up on trying to get him and got one on the GTS. Needless to say, as soon as I saw him in the TG, I put him to sleep and didn't let him breathe until he was caught!
     
    Took me around 10-20 mins to find the pokemon that Backlot claims to be there.
