Typically in wild beers when does the Pellicle form?

Whenever it wants, man. It's
wild.
Seriously though, I've brewed beer with wild yeast that never formed a pellicle. Are you just talking about wild yeast, or are you using bacteria as well?

I have isolated 3 wild yeasts. All three formed pellicles in primary cultures and by the third passage only one of them still readily forms a pellicle. With time though, all three form pellicles whenever they feel like it. So... yeah man, it's wild and does what it wants!
