I just caught a Vulpix, which I hadn't seen before. If I go back to the same area is there a chance I'll see another one? There wasn't anything special about the area that it was in, just a residential sidewalk

Best Answer
While the exact spot will not spawn the exact same Pokemon repeatedly, the area you are in definitely affects the Pokemon which appear.
For example, my friend who lives on the beach sees water Pokemon all day, while I see more Rhyhorn and Eevee.
