From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
The Friend Safari (Japanese: フレンドサファリ Friend Safari) is a facility in Kiloude City where Trainers can catch Pokémon that can not normally be found in their journeys.
It is the only place where the evolutions of starter Pokémon can appear in the wild.
Overview
Once the player has entered the Hall of Fame, they are able to access Kiloude City and thus the Friend Safari. When they have registered someone else's 3DS Friend Code in their own 3DS, the player is able to access the Friend Safari belonging to that friend, regardless of whether that person has played Pokémon X and Y or not. Each Friend Code has a designated Pokémon type and specific Pokémon that will be obtainable in its Friend Safari, and these will not change. As such, any player who ever registers a given Friend Code in their 3DS will always be able to access the exact same Friend Safari.
Players cannot access their own Friend Safari.
Pokémon
All Pokémon that appear in the Friend Safari are level 30 (causing some, such as Muk and Drapion, to be underleveled) and are guaranteed to have at least two IVs of 31. Pokémon can be found in the Friend Safari regardless of being version-exclusive Pokémon or not obtainable in either version.
All Friend Safaris have three Pokémon that may be captured. Only two of them will be available until the friend to whom that Safari belongs enters the Hall of Fame. All three Pokémon are of the same type, determined by that player's Friend Code. Once the player has been online in-game at the same time as a friend, the Pokémon in that friend's Safari will thereafter have a chance of having their Hidden Ability.
Cascoon, a pure Bug-type Pokémon, is the only known Pokémon that is found in a Friend Safari that is not its own type as it is found within a Poison-type Friend Safari instead, although its evolution, Dustox, is part-Poison-type.
Note that "rate" in the tables below refers to the likelihood for a Pokémon to be available in a Friend Safari at all, not its encounter rate.
