- The task to catch every Flabebe flower color begins with Side Mission 12, titled The Many Flowers of Flabebe . You gain access after completing Main Mission 6, called Reaching Rank X . Vivace, the NPC who gives you this mission, waits outside the Coiffure Clips salon in South Boulevard. Speaking with her launches the challenge to gather all five flower forms and show them off.
- One of the more player-friendly aspects is that Flabebe appear regardless of time or weather. While flower color variants usually spawn near matching flowerbeds, you won’t need to wait for specific conditions to find them. Expect to spend time on rooftops—several flowerbeds that attract Flabebe sit atop Lumiose City’s buildings, requiring some climbing and Roto-Gliding to access.
- The Red Flower variant is by far the most common, appearing across multiple locations. Rouge Plaza (Wild Zone 3) is a prime example, with bright red flowers clustered in its center and eastern sides. Flabebe tend to float around these spots, making it easy to spot and capture several quickly.
- For the Yellow Flower form, start at the outer end of Saison Canal on South Boulevard. Near Restaurant Le Nah, patches with red and orange flowers also host Yellow Flower Flabebe, giving you a chance to catch multiple colors in one outing.

The diversity in locations and the side mission tied to them means players will spend a good chunk of time climbing rooftops and exploring wild zones. These vibrant flower-colored companions aren’t just for show—they’re the key to unlocking some of the game’s unique cosmetic items and valuable resources.
The task to catch every Flabebe flower color begins with Side Mission 12, titled The Many Flowers of Flabebe . You gain access after completing Main Mission 6, called Reaching Rank X . Vivace, the NPC who gives you this mission, waits outside the Coiffure Clips salon in South Boulevard. Speaking with her launches the challenge to gather all five flower forms and show them off.
Good news: Vivace accepts Flabebe directly from your PC boxes one by one, so you can collect them at your own speed without needing to show every form you catch right away. Finishing this mission scores you eight new hair colors, a rewarding 1,500 Pokedollars, and a Rare Candy—worth the effort for collectors and completionists alike.
Thankfully, she’ll request to see each of them individually and from inside your boxes. So you can show her any that you may already have, then find the rest to show her at your own pace.

However, rest assured that for collecting Flabebe specifically, you won’t actually need any special traversal tools like Roto-Glide or Holovators—knowledge of ladder placements and paths across rooftops will suffice. Grouping Flabebe by their flower colors helps streamline the search so you can knock out each form efficiently.
Many of the flowerbeds Flabebe spawn near are found on top of Lumiose City’s buildings.
