* Raikou, Entei, and Suicune from ''[[Pokémon]] Gold/Silver/Crystal''. They are encountered like any other random Pokemon but the area they appear in changes. Unusually for this trope the player is generally the one who tracks them down (and they have a habit of fleeing before you can catch them when they're encountered).

** If Raikou/Entei/Suicune count, then Latios and Latias (from ''Ruby, Sapphire & Emerald''), Mesprit and Cresselia (from ''Diamond & Pearl''), and Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres (only in ''Platinum'') should also count.

*** They do. The games [[All There in the Manual|and manuals]] specifically call them "roaming pokemon". Also from the [[R Emake|remakes]]: Raikou, Entei '''or''' Suicune (whichever [[Elemental Rock Paper Scissors|beats the one you chose at the start]]) in ''Fire Red & Leaf Green''; and Raikou and Entei (but not Suicune anymore) and Latios '''or''' Latias in ''Heart Gold & Soul Silver''.

** The latest variation are Thundurus and Tornadus, who wander randomly through [[Pokémon Black and White|Unova]], one in each version. They're less annoying than their predecessors, since they cause freak rainstorms on whatever map they happen to be inhabiting, and that tends to call attention to them, even from NPCs.

* Deathguise / Death Gaze in ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'' will spawn in a random area - triggerable only by airship - once you hit the World of Ruin. The annoying parts about this being that it's invisible on the map and prone to running.
