Pokémon Legends Z-A is out now, and trainers around the world are setting off to catch everything Lumiose City has to offer. Included in the Pokédex are the three elemental monkeys from Unova: Panpour, Pansage, and Pansear.
You’ll need these three monkeys to complete the 018 side quest named “A Pan-tastic Pot of Tea,” which can be found just southeast of Wild Zone Two. A man is seeking all three monkeys to create the perfect cup of tea, and you’re tasked with catching them for him. Unfortunately, though, these creatures aren’t as straightforward to find as much as a Pikachu or a Hawlucha. It’ll take a bit of luck and a lot of trees to find them.

Pansear, Panpour, and Pansage location in Pokémon Legends Z-A
If you check the ‘Dex entry for Pansear, Panpour, and Pansage, the game tells you these Unovian species like to live in “high places” and are often seen in trees, though it won’t tell you exactly where to look. All three Unovian elemental monkeys can be found sitting in trees scattered around Lumiose City or on rooftops.
Not all trees will spawn a Pokémon, though. I found the most luck looking in the trees on Autumnal Avenue in the north side of Lumiose City, sandwiched between the Magenta and Rouge sectors of the map. There are tons of trees that line this road, and I was able to locate all three monkeys in one go. Luckily for players, these species spawn both during the day and night, so you won’t have to worry about finding a bench and passing time.
If you’d rather take to the skies, you can also find Panpour, Pansage, and Pansear on rooftops. I found two monkeys on the same rooftop where you can find Eevee, on the south side of the map near the Bleu Sector 7.
I recommend looking for the monkeys in trees instead of rooftops, though, since it’s easier to catch them while they’re hanging out in the branches. If you approach them on the rooftops, they’ll act skittishly and try to run from you. But if you go up to them when they’re in trees, they won’t move, making it much easier to aim and throw a Poké Ball at them.
How to evolve Panpour, Pansage, and Pansear in Pokémon Legends Z-A
Once you have your monkeys, you can return to the man southeast of Wild Zone Two to complete the “A Pan-tastic Pot of Tea” quest. If you’d like to evolve any of your three monkeys into Simisear, Simisage, or Simipour, you’ll need a Fire Stone, Leaf Stone, and a Water Stone, respectively. You can find these Evolution Stones by picking up random items around the city, or you can buy them from the Stone Emporium in the south of the map, north of Wild Zone One.
