Plans for V12 (UPDATED 7/10/2019)

Public release is finally out, so I’m gonna start working on the V12 updates in my free time. I WILL NOT be replaying the entire game
to catch little changes (at least in the short term future), so the more public help I can get with the Chapter 1-13 content changes,
the better. Message me stuff I didn’t catch that you find on discord during the public release!

NOTE: There might (but i suspect not) be a cell in Evergreen Forest, and a sixth cell (not listed in the guide) in the Zorrialyn Desert.
Let me know if you find either of these please!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to my walkthrough of Pokemon Rejuvenation! This is inspired by Friz’s work on his Reborn walkthrough, so check that out
if you haven’t yet. Credit for the format largely goes to that guide.

I intend to make this walkthrough concise and quick without summarizing/explaining story events - if you want to see the story
without playing the game I recommend checking out a Let’s Play on YouTube or something similar.

Table Of Contents -- Use Ctrl+F to find a specific section. I also oriented this guide as such that Ctrl+F will work for TM Names, items,
zygarde cells, move tutors, Pokemon Locations, and more!

____________________________________________________________________________

Chapter 1: Shipwrecked

========================
Prologue - Prolog
========================

The game will start off asking if you want to skip the prologue. Rejuvenation is a very story-focused game, so I recommend viewing it
if it is your first time playing. If you do skip the prologue, jump ahead to the next section.

As soon as you’re done reading the Zorua and Pangoro story, take control of Maria and head downstairs to talk to Mom. Afterwards
enter the bottom room on the left side of the first floor and head downstairs and interact with the summoning table.
oP

Head back upstairs and talk to Dad in the top-left room. Then return to the kitchen to talk to Mom. After that go upstairs. After a
brief flash and the sound of breaking glass, go back downstairs and talk with the mysterious figure. Head west back down to the
basement to watch the cutscene.

After regaining control of Marianette, head down, east, and up through the hallway and watch the final cutscene of the prologue
play out.

========================
S.S. Oceana - Oceana1
========================

After either skipping the prologue or finishing the last cutscene, the game asks which difficulty mode you’d prefer. Personally, I
would recommend Casual Mode for anyone attempting to do a more restrictive challenge run or anyone who does not have much
experience with the Reborn-style Pokemon game. I would recommend Normal Mode to anyone looking for a challenge or who
found Reborn’s difficulty adequate, and Intense Mode to those with lots of experience and/or frustration seekers. Regardless of
choice, the game allows you to change your difficulty setting later if you want. I will be covering battles in this guide as they appear
in Normal Mode.

Register yourself as a trainer, choosing among genders and six sprites. Amanda will ask if you want to input a password. I don’t
recommend using the password if you’ve never played the game, since this section contains many important story beats, but if you
do want to skip ahead to the next section, the password is 4567. There are two other passwords you can input here. If you want to
play as a legacy protagonist sprite, type 1111. If you want to play the game as a certain side quest character from waaaaay later
(Ana), type 9494, though I really recommend you don’t do this until at least your second playthrough.

Once you’ve talked to Nancy and can roam, explore the S.S. Oceana. In this game talking to everyone and everything you see can be
vital to discovering new Pokemon and Items, so it's a good idea to talk to everyone aboard.
oP

If you enter the left room with the yellow haired man and interact with the wall, you can listen in on a conversation for a cutscene.

If you head up the stairs once and go out to the right, talk to the woman in the chair for a Rare Candy.

Head up the stairs again to talk to Cpt. Augustus. He’ll explain a few of Rejuvenation’s mechanics, then head downstairs. Go back
down two flights of stairs and attempt to enter the upper middle room. After a brief conversation with Nancy, head into the banquet
hall and talk to Nancy and Augustus to get the banquet started, when you’re ready.

Once you regain control, head downstairs to talk to Piano Lady, then downstairs again to enter the banquet room to speak with
Augustus. Head back out into the main room and go all the way down to try to leave through the bottom exit.

Talk to the man guarding the stairs, then go down towards the cargo hold. Enter the room and talk to Nancy to see some cutscenes.
oP

========================
Oceana Pier - OPier1
========================

After either skipping the boat scenes or watching the cutscenes, talk to Tesla. Once you regain control, you can explore Oceana Pier.

Now is a good time to change some of your options. I recommend doing Text Speed: Max and Battle Scene: Off if you want the game
to go quickly. I also recommend storing at least a few backups -- save files can get corrupted.

Anyways, if you want to talk to the woman on the northeast pier, you can get an all expenses paid trip to Hoenn! Otherwise there’s
not too much to do here yet, so head into the gate on the north side.

Talk to Mable at the top to get your passport verified, then head through the door at the top to enter East Gearen City.

========================
Gearen Laboratory - GearLab1
========================

The trainers won’t let you head west or east quite yet, so head into the building north.

The guy running in place on the left will offer to give you cinematic bars during important cutscenes if you want. Talk to the girl
behind the counter to buy some basic products:

Gearen Lab Shop:


PokeBall $200
Potion $300
Antidote $100
oP

You start with $1,500. I recommend picking up at least a few Pokeballs to catch some team members soon, as a full team is almost
necessary to succeed in Rejuvenation, even as early as the first gym battle of this game.

Talk to Amanda at the top of the building to see a brief cutscene, then head up towards the door to meet Melia. Go through the
door to meet Professor Jenner. You’ll then get to pick a starter Pokemon by interacting with it. If you talk to the rainbow colored
machine on the right side, it will randomly choose for you among the 21 starters.

Starter Choices (Pick ONE):


Bulbasaur
Charmander
Squirtle
Chikorita
Cyndaquil
Totodile
Treecko
Torchic
Mudkip
Turtwig
Chimchar
Piplup
Snivy
Tepig
Oshawott
Chespin
Fennekin
Froakie
oP

Rowlet
Litten
Popplio

As in Reborn, Speed Boost Torchic is the best choice -- but all the starters can be useful in their own ways. The first gym specializes in
Poison, so Grass-type starters can be difficult to use at first. Choose whatever you want though!

You can quicksave with ‘D’ in front of the Pokemon you choose and use ‘F12’ to soft reset for natures, IV’s, shininess, and abilities.
All Pokemon in this game have a chance at hidden abilities and the shiny rate is increased to a little over 1/100.

Anyways, once you’ve picked your starter, head west for a battle with Aevium Scout Amanda! You can win or lose this battle.

Amanda (No Field)

● Litten, Level 5.
○ Scratch
○ Growl

After the battle, she’ll give you 5 Pokeballs, and Running Shoes. Head to talk to Jenner and after a scene, you’ll fight:

Ren (No Field)

● Froakie, Level 5.
○ Pound
○ Growl
oP

After the fight with Ren, Jenner asks you to visit Route 1 to help Melia. He then gives you the Pokedex and the Cybernav! Head back
downstairs and listen to Jan’s tutorial.

If you want, go check out the EV training center by talking to the woman on the right of the counter. Right now, only the HP and
Speed rooms are open. You can’t catch any of the Pokemon inside, but you can fight Hoothoot, Caterpie, Clefairy, and Jigglypuff for
some HP EV’s, and Charmander, Pikachu, Voltorb, and Rattata for Speed EV’s.

When you’re ready, head back outside to start exploring East Gearen City!

========================
East Gearen City - EGear1
========================

Patches of grass around Gearen City have opened up, so consider catching some Pokemon.

Left East Gearen City


Grass: Morning % Grass: Day % Grass: Night %

Rattata (Alolan) 34 Bellsprout 34 Purrloin 30

Bellsprout 30 Pidove 31 Pidove 30

Patrat 15 Bidoof 25 Poochyena 20

Pidgey 15 Patrat 6 Oddish 9

Sunkern 6 Wurmple 4 Paras 9

Chingling 2
oP

If you talk to the nerd on the east side of the bottom street, he’ll give you Reverse Candy. If you go west on the bottom street, you
can find a GourmetTreat in a bush. We’ll want some of these later to get event Pokemon.

You can also find a hidden Oran Berry in a patch of flowers to the left of the last tree on the east side of this street. As a note: I will
be only be noting the hidden items I would not want to miss in a new playthrough, at least until we get the itemfinder.
oP

If you go up to the north and around, you can find an Elemental Seed in this patch of flowers. There is also a Resist Wing in the grass
four spaces to the right.
oP

Heading up to the park, you can find a Grass Gem here.

This is also the best place to catch the Pokemon here due to the long lines of grass.

You can find a GourmetTreat in the wall between two dumpsters on the north side of the city.
oP

If you try to cross into the northwest side of the city, a thug will force you to pay $300 or to battle him. He uses three Level 12-13
Pokemon, so be sure you’re ready.

========================
Nidoran Quests - NidoQ1
========================

If you go to the northeast corner of this area, you can interact with a Nidoran. Follow it to these locations:

1. First encounter -- northeast by Emerald building.


2. Northwest by train station
3. East side of the city near bridge, next to dumpster
4. North side, south of library near some dumpsters

After this encounter you can interact with it and battle it. Nidoran F is at level 5.

Head out to the Oceana Pier. You’ll find a Nidoran M eating. Talk to it with a GourmetTreat for a battle.

========================
East Gearen Buildings - EGBuild1
========================

After you’ve battled the trainers we’ve done just about all we can outside, so head into the Velvet Building on the south side of the
lab. In all of the buildings people will challenge you to battles, so be warned.

Head up to the first floor and talk to the woman in the middle. If you choose left she’ll give you a Mineral Ball, and Steam Ball if you
choose right. Also grab the Great Ball in the bottom right.
oP

If you enter the second floor at night, you’ll see a Pachirisu running wild. If you give it a GourmetTreat. It’ll battle you. It’s at level 8.
Grab the Ether on the third floor.

Next, head to the Violet Building on the west side of town. The name rater is the old woman located on the ground floor. A man on
the first floor will give you a Potion. A man on the third will give you a Paralyze Heal and you can find Dusk Ball on the ground.

Now go to the Emerald Building on the northeast side of town. You’ll need to beat a trainer to access the upper levels. You can find
an Iron on the first floor and get a Max Repel from an old woman. If you need more money to buy things, the Iron sells for $4900. On
the second floor a woman will get you a full heal. Enter the third floor at night to battle a level 5 Shuppet.

If you enter the Magnolia Library on the north side of town and pay $300 you can enter the back side of the library. By talking to the
man in glasses you can use the shards hidden around the map for move tutor moves. These aren’t very useful but you can get them
for your Pokemon if you want to.

Library Move Tutor

Bind 1 Red Shard


Covet 1 Blue Shard
Helping Hand 1 Yellow Shard

Enter the room on the right and talk to the girl in here to do a quiz. If you answer all the questions correctly, you’ll get a
Thunderstone! The answers are here, in white text: brown, goldenwood, goldenleaf

The building on the left of the library is the Gearen Help Center. We’ll be returning here later.

========================
oP

Fletchling- Fletch1
========================

There’s just two more things we can do before going to the other side of East Gearen. The garden is now open, so you can catch
level 5 Fletchling here by interacting with them. Now, one of the reasons I emphasize this is something that’s going to be REALLY
important later, which is that these Fletchling have Quick Guard. We will need these way later, but I absolutely recommend getting
one even if you’re not going for a completionist run.

Head into the building on the west side that’s now unlocked. Talk to the “man” with the yellow hair, then exit the building. This
starts a quest we’ll complete later.

That’s all we can do over here for now, so head east in Gearen City.

========================
East Gearen City - EGear2
========================

You’ll see grass around this part of the city too, though it has the same encounters as the other side.

Right East Gearen City


Grass: Morning % Grass: Day % Grass: Night %

Rattata (Alolan) 34 Bellsprout 34 Purrloin 30

Bellsprout 30 Pidove 31 Pidove 30

Patrat 15 Bidoof 25 Poochyena 20


oP

Pidgey 15 Patrat 6 Oddish 9

Sunkern 6 Wurmple 4 Paras 9

Chingling 2

If you head to the northeast, you’ll see a Super Potion near a tent. Here you’ll meet Mr. Luck -- this is how you change your difficulty,
as I mentioned earlier. First time is free, then it’ll cost you a fee.

The center of the map has a row of shops - buy a few more GourmetTreats if you have run out. We aren’t gonna need any Reverse
Candies in this game since the level cap is a hard cap -- unless you use Rare Candies to go over it, you won’t need Reverse Candies.

If you want to use the flutes or you’re collecting infinite use items, might as well pick them up as well.

East Gearen Market -- Topleft Vendor


Pokeball $200
Potion $300
GourmetTreat $1500
Repel $350
Reverse Candy $50

East Gearen Market -- Bottomleft Vendor


Burn Heal $250
Ice Heal $250
Antidote $100
Awakening $250
Paralyze Heal $200
oP

East Gearen Market -- Bottom-middle Vendor (Only available Weekday Days)


Reverse Candy $50
Soda Pop $300

East Gearen Market -- Bottomright Vendor (Only available Weekday Days)


Black Flute $400
White Flute $500

If you talk to the vendor on the topright, he’ll attempt to sell you Pokeball’s at $400 each. While this may seem like a ripoff, once you
buy four, he’ll give you a Voltorb!

Head east into Venam’s front yard and see a cutscene. She’ll ask for a Pecha Berry. We’ll be grabbing this in a bit.

If you go all the way to the right, you can sneak to the north and grab an Iron. Again I recommend selling it as $4900 is a lot of
money at this point in the game.

You can find a Revive here, which will be useful for the gym battle.
oP

You can find a Heart Scale here, which will be useful for move remembering in the future. I will try to point out as many Heart Scale
locations as I find in the early game.

Along the east side of the city, you should see Buizel. His trainer will show up. Win the battle, and Buizel is yours!

If you go up towards the Chrisola Resort, head east as you get up the stairs and follow the path to get TM83: Infestation.
oP

On the southeast point of the city, if you go west past Karrina, you can find a Reverse Candy hiding in the shade of the tree.

========================
Gearen Park - GPark1
oP

========================

Heading South from the Heart Scale area leads us to Gearen Park, with a new set of Pokemon to encounter.

Gearen Park
Grass: %

Spearow 30

Pansage 20

Skitty 14

Pansear 10

Panpour 10

Fomantis 10

Pidgey 5

Bellsprout 1

Battles here are fought in Grassy Terrain.


oP

You can find a Carbos here - another source of $4900.

Also, there is a Leaf Stone located in the park, right here. If your Oddish or Bellsprout evolves, you can use it on those -- Pansage is
also an option, or, you can save it for later.
oP

========================
Right East Gearen Buildings - EGBuild2
========================
There’s not much left to do but to explore the buildings on this side of town.
oP

If you enter the Shopping Emporium above the market vendors, there are a few shops open for business.

Left Vendor - Berry Emporium


Oran Berry $200
Pecha Berry $300

You can pick up a few of each berries for the gym. In particular, get at least one Pecha Berry as we’ll need it to progress the story.

Middle Vendor - Pokeball Shop


Heavy Ball $300
Moon Ball $300

The Heavy Ball won’t find much use for this beginning portion of the game. If you haven’t captured Skitty or done the Nidoran event,
Moon Balls can be useful, but otherwise it’s not worth bothering. The right vendor is currently not in business due to an unfulfilled
help quest, which we’ll get to later.

Enter the Chrisola Hotel Resort at the top of the map. After you regain control after meeting Saki, talk to a man in the bottom right
for a Super Potion. Enter the right hallway and go past the first two rooms and into the first on the upper side to get TM21
Frustration. This can be useful in a pinch for early game tough battles if you’re willing to disregard your Pokemon’s friendship. In the
hallway on the left, head into the open room at the top and interact with the chair for $1,500!

Head down to the Casino level and talk to the red haired fellow. They’ll flush their Coin Case down the drain so we can pick it up
later. Nothing else we can do here for now, so head down to the AP room.

You’ve probably noticed a few popups regarding achievements -- complete them and you’ll earn AP, redeemable here. For now we
probably can’t get much but I recommend saving up for the HM Items or the Exp. All as they’ll make your life a lot easier. The card
oP

items will allow you access to EV Training rooms in Jenner’s lab, so those are nice too. Anyways, talk to the girl in the right side to get
an Achievement Card.

AP Shop
HP Up 3 AP
PP Up 3 AP
Protein 3 AP
Iron 3 AP
Calcium 3 AP
Zinc 3 AP
Carbos 3 AP
Rare Candy 10 AP

Golden Wings 25 AP
Golden Jetpack 25 AP
Golden Drift Board 25 AP
Golden Claws 25 AP
Exp. All 30 AP
oP

There’s a bit of an exploit we can use to get a bunch of points quick -- if you buy and sell as many $20 berries as you can in the Berry
Emporium, you’ll quickly finish the buy and sell achievements. In particular, go ahead and grab the Golden Hammer and Exp. All as
soon as you can. Rock Smash actually doesn’t require any gym badges, so we can get an event Pokemon early by buying this. Exp. All
is helpful as it allows us to pivot multiple teams at once around the level cap, and evolve Pokemon as we go.

Head up to the 4th floor of the building, Rooftop, via “more” in the elevator. There are actually Pokemon to encounter here.

Chrisola Rooftop
Grass: %

Cherubi 44

Caterpie 24

Metapod 20

Oddish 12

Try to catch two Cherubi -- at least one needs to be male. We’ll need one for an in-game trade coming up. As soon as you’re done,
add a male to your party.

Enter the Aqua Building to the south. A man on the first floor will give you an Ultra Ball. The guy in the top right offers to trade you
Buneary for your male Cherubi. Buneary can hit hard with its 102 base power Frustration, if you keep it unfriendly. On the second
floor, you’ll find the Old Rod! If you attempt to go to the third floor, you’ll enter quite the battle. I don’t recommend this unless you
have the money and self-respect to spare.
oP

Go to Junction Bridge by following a path heading west south of the Route 1 Train Station. Break the rock smash rocks down, and to
the right, and you’ll see a Blitzle. Give it a GourmetTreat and it’ll battle you! If you don’t yet have the Golden Hammer, we can wait
until Rock Smash in the next section to get this one.

That’s about all the optional content we can do in the city right now.

========================
Sewers Visit 1 - Sewer1
========================

Head over to Venam’s house to give her a Pecha Berry. After a brief scene, she’ll leave.

Head to the southeast of town and a cutscene will play. Afterwards follow Venam into the sewers. You’ll be teaming up with Ren
here, who will heal your Pokemon after every battle. Very useful for grinding weak Pokemon. Additionally, if you try to catch
Pokemon while with Ren, you’ll need to knock one of the two out in order to catch the other, which can be frustrating.

Anyways, there are lots of new Pokemon here:

Abandoned Sewers
Cave: % Old Rod %

Rattata (Alolan) 31 Grimer (Kantonian) 80

Trubbish 20 Qwilfish 20

Gulpin 11

Ekans 10
oP

Poochyena 10

Woobat 10

Noibat 4

Koffing 4

Head left and all the way down for a hidden Poison Gem. Head across the bridge and right to get a Great Ball. Talk to a bug catcher
to the left to get a Pecha Berry. Attempt to enter the room Venam runs into and it will lock you out. There’s an Antidote to the left.
Enter the other room along this wall and you can buy some Mystery Bowls for $300 to heal 50 HP. Neat.

Head down and left to get a Mystery Bowl, then back across the bridge to the generator room. Start the third, first, then second
generator. Go back into the room Venam went into for a long cutscene and a battle

Garbodor Garbage Crew (No field)

● Trubbish, Level 11.


○ Pound
○ Poison Gas
○ Recycle
● Trubbish, Level 11.
○ Pound
○ Poison Gas
○ Recycle
● Garbodor, Level 13.
○ Pound
○ Poison Gas
oP

○ Toxic Spikes

If only we had a steel type at this point. Any of your new Poison-types should be able to resist getting poisoned here, but really any
strong STAB moves can take out the Trubbish. Ren’s Growlithe hits hard with Ember, plus he has two more in the back, so you
shouldn’t really have to worry here.

Once the battle is over, you’ll be taken out of the sewers. We actually need to go all the way back to the room we were just in,
because lying on the ground is the Coin Case!

========================
Game Corner Prizes - GCorner1
========================

Now’s a good time to mention all the prizes available in the game corner. While you can get them all right now with enough
patience, it’s not necessary to grab everything right now.

Anyways, there’s a grand total of 150 coins along the ground in there, try to find them all. Otherwise here’s what you can get here:

Left Vendor
TM70 Flash 1000 Coins
TM10 Hidden Power 4000 Coins
TM90 Substitute 7000 Coins

Right Vendor
Seel 1000 Coins
Spoink 4000 Coins
Maractus 5000 Coins
oP

Helioptile 6500 Coins

To get coins you can buy them for 50/$1,000 or 500/$10,000, or play the various games in the casino. Of these, Voltorb Flip is easily
the most efficient once you know what you’re doing. In particular I recommend getting Spoink for the gym and TM10 Hidden Power
in order to spice up your early game movesets, but it’s up to you.

The attendant on the left is the lotto corner lady, who’ll pick one number a day and check if it matches your Pokemon’s, like in the
games. The prizes are as follows:

Loto Attendant
Master Ball 5 Matches
Max Revive 4 Matches
Exp. Share 3 Matches
PP Up 2 Matches
Ultra Ball 1 Matches

Anyways, once you’ve gambled to your heart’s content, there is one more optional thing to do if you want. Head back to Magnolia
Library, and for a short time you’ll be able to battle Ren -- it’s optional EXP and money should you want it.

Once you’re ready to leave, head to the northwest part of town to get on a train bound for Route 1.

========================
Route 1 and Goldenwood Forest - Rt1GF1
========================
oP

Inside the station, you’ll meet up with Tesla, who’ll buy you a ticket and give you Potions. Talk to the grandfather in the station and
agree to help him, then board the train. If you should need to come back to the city, a new ticket is $100. Battles at Route 1 are on
the Golden Forest field.

Route 1
Grass: Morning % Grass: Day % Grass: Night %

Caterpie 30 Pidove 30 Scatterbug 35

Scatterbug 10 Pidgey 15 Paras 9

Pidgey 10 Sentret 8 Kakuna 4

Deerling 10 Rockruff 1 Metapod 1

Rockruff 1 Rockruff 1

Don’t worry if you can’t find Rockruff, it’ll be more common in just a little bit. You’ll see a Whismur nearby. If you give it a
GourmetTreat, it’ll battle you!

Head north and enjoy a great cutscene montage with Melia. Once you regain control, interact with Drifblim, and you’ll nab an HP
Up. Another free $4900! Grab the nearby Potion as well, and talk to the Furfrou lady for another Potion.

There’s a new list of encounters here, but nothing you couldn’t get yet.

Head through the cave and watch the cutscene at the end. If you can, battle Mars of the Culvier Clan here. It’s not required, but
good to get out of the way now if you can.

Culvier Clan Mars


● Sewaddle, Level 15. @ Light Clay.
○ Return
○ Bug Bite
○ Seed Bomb
○ Light Screen
● Swadloon, Level 18. @ Miracle Seed.
○ Return
○ Iron Defense
○ Seed Bomb
○ Double Team
● Leavanny, Level 20. @ Leftovers.
○ Return
○ Seed Bomb
○ Synthesis
○ Iron Defense

Personally, I was able to make it by by using Rockruff and Bellsprout to take out the first two, then stalled Leavanny to death after
Nidorina poisoned it. If you do manage to succeed, you’ll get a Star Shard and a Sewaddle!

If you follow Melia, you’ll appear in a small room. Interact with the rock at the top for a PP Up! I don’t recommend using this on your
weak moves just yet, either save it or sell it for $4900.
oP

Make sure you’ve caught everything you care to in the whole Goldenwood Forest/Cave area, as we won’t be able to come back for a
little while.Anyways, heal your team and talk to Melia. She’ll then challenge you to a battle.

Pre-Leader Melia (Golden Forest field)


● Buneary, Level 13.
○ Fake Out
○ Double Hit
○ Fire Punch
○ Baby Doll Eyes
● Eevee, Level 13.
○ Baby Doll Eyes
○ Mud Slap
○ Bite
○ Covet
● Stufful, Level 14.
○ Tackle
○ Leer
○ Roar
○ Brutal Swing
● Togepi, Level 15. @Oran Berry.
○ Ancientpower
○ Echoed Voice
○ Yawn
○ Metronome
oP

This is the first somewhat difficult required battle. That said, your second-stage starter should be able to make short work of it,
especially paired with Geodude who resists nearly all her attacks, or Nidorina, who can hit everything hard with Double Kick. Just be
careful to not let Togepi buff itself up with Ancientpower too many times and you can make it through.

========================
Goldenwood Xen Attack - GWXen1
========================

As soon as Melia leaves, head back out through Goldenwood Cave. Enter 6489 on the briefcase, and you’ll get the Snag Machine and
10 Pokeballs! Just like in Colosseum and XD, all you have to do is use Pokeballs on opponents’ Shadow Pokemon to catch them. Go
ahead and catch the first grunt’s Shadow Meowth.

Pair up with Melia and head south. Fight the west grunt to capture Shadow Finneon. Melia won’t battle with you, but will heal your
Pokemon if you talk to her. A grunt towards the bottom side of the lake will have a Shadow Cacnea.

After defeating Eli and Sharon, heal up, save, and talk to Zetta.

Team Xen Zetta (Golden Forest Field)


● Shadow Grimer (Alolan), Level 11.
● Minior, Level 12.
○ Rollout
○ Defense Curl
○ Confuse Ray
○ Self-Destruct
● Cyndaquil, Level 12.
○ Flame Wheel
○ Quick Attack
oP

○ Aerial Ace
○ Smokescreen
● Oddish, Level 13.
○ Acid
○ Mega Drain
○ Sleep Powder
○ Synthesis
● Type:Null, Level 13.
○ Pursuit
○ Double Hit
○ Hidden Power: Fighting
○ Aerial Ace

Start by capturing Alolan Grimer. Cyndaquil and Oddish should not be too threatening at this phase as you should have type
coverage, but watch out for Minior getting off a Rollout or self-destructing. Type:Null is really bulky at this point in the game, but if
you can status it you’ll be able to whittle it down. Nidorina managed to take Type:Null down for me and I won this one pretty easily.

After witnessing a scene and going north, you’ll be able to fight Rift Gyarados.

Dimensional Rift Gyarados (Rift Field)


● Gyarados, Level 15. @Demon Stone. Type: Water/Dimensional
○ Thunder Fang
○ Dimensional Thrash
○ Ice Fang
○ Fire Fang
oP

Luckily, this thing has lower base stats total than Mega-Gyarados, so it can’t be that bad. It doesn’t get water STAB on anything, so as
long as your whole team can survive a few hits, you’ll be able to take it down. It can’t heal, so whittling it down slowly works just
fine.

========================
East Gearen Post Rift Quests - EGear3
========================

Once you get returned to the normal type, return back to Gearen City. First thing we can do is talk to the grandfather in the train
station, who’ll give you a Smoke Ball.

Next thing we can do is return to the Violet building on the west side of town. Talk to the trainer on the second floor with a Lillipup,
who’ll give it to you!

Return to Jenner’s Lab and head upstairs. You’ll need to battle Madelis’ Houndoom as Melia, using Togepi. After a lot of cutscenes,
you’ll be back outside.

Head to the left, and the sewer stairs there will now be open. In here you’ll find a Rare Candy. Exit through the top at night and you
can go into a secret alleyway area.
Here you can find a Telluric Seed.
oP

Go up, and give one of the Munna a GourmetTreat to catch it! Beware, as it is Level 20.

Around Gearen, trainers will rebattle you, so be wary of that. One more quest we can do now takes place at the Chrisola Hotel.

● Enter the room in the right hallway on the right, with Minccino in it. Talk to the old lady and agree to find Minccino.
● Head out to the lobby, and find it nearby the elevator.
oP

● Enter the left hallway and you’ll see it right away on the bottom side
● Follow it left and around, and you’ll see Team Xen Grunts take it away!
● Go to Gearen Park and fight the Grunts on the east side of the park
● Return to the old woman, who’ll let you battle to catch Minccino!

Now’s a good time to start taking on the Help Center quests, so head into the help center.

Battle: Wanderer Novae (No Field)


● Trumbeak, Level 16.
○ Pluck
○ Supersonic
○ Rock Smash
○ Fury Attack
● Charjabug, Level 17.
○ Spark
○ Bug Bite
○ Bite
○ Mud Slap
● Rockruff, Level 17.

○ Razor Leaf
○ Play Rough

● Sandygast, Level 18.
○ Sand Tomb
○ Mega Drain
○ Sand Attack
○ Astonish
● Passimian, Level 20.
oP

○ Rock Smash
○ Tackle
○ Smack Down

This is a tough battle to be sure, and this won’t be the last time you’ll face her. That said, if you’ve put together a good team with
type coverage, it’ll be a breeze.

Anyways, all that’s left is to claim your reward at the help center -- $600 and Pichu!

========================
PoisonHeart Badge - Badge1
========================

All that’s left to do is build your best team and take on Venam’s gym in East Gearen. This gym will require us to mix colors to make
composite colors.

Take out the first trainer, and learn the color combination we need to build is Magenta. To mix magenta, add red and blue.

In the second room, we’re gonna make orange and green. Do red and yellow first, then check the machine. Then do teal and yellow
to make green and move into the third room.

The trainer in the first room will tell you to make Orange, White, and Teal. However, if you talk to the person in the lobby, they’ll tell
you there’s a secret in this room...

The first is red + yellow, and the second is green + red + blue. Finally, add just green + blue and we’re in.
oP

Well, that would be all we have to do, but there’s a secret. If you mix brown, then white, then orange, you’ll get access to a secret
area. In the upper left corner here, you can find a Rare Candy! Here too is a Seviper Egg, make sure you have a spot in your party for
it.

Well, that’s about it for that area, so clear your team, equip all the good items you can take advantage of (Oran and Pecha Berries
work well here), remove Shadow Pokemon from your party and save.

Punk Girl Venam (Corrosive Field)

● Trubbish, Level 13. @ Oran Berry.


○ Rock Blast
○ Venam’s Kiss
○ Thief
○ Poison Gas
● Whirlipede, Level 15.
○ Twineedle
○ Venom Drench
○ Bulldoze
○ Venoshock
● Mareanie, Level 14.
○ Venoshock
○ Recover
○ Water Pulse
○ Toxic Spikes
● Ivysaur, Level 15. @ Berry Juice.
○ Venam’s Kiss
○ Poisonpowder
oP

○ Razor Leaf
○ Leech Seed
● Alolan Grimer, Level 14. @ Oran Berry.
○ Bite
○ Acid Armor
○ Poison Fang
○ Shadow Sneak
● Seviper, Level 16. @ Sitrus Berry.
○ Bite
○ Bulldoze
○ Glare
○ Venam’s Kiss

Honestly, this one isn’t too bad. If you’ve picked up Chingling or Woobat, their evolutions can wreck house here. Munna would be
ok, but its only possible attacking moves here are Frustration and Hidden Power, so use it at your own risk. Marshtomp, my starter,
helped as well, though Mud Shot gains Poison typing. Ultimately this is not too bad and if you’re really struggling with an
underleveled team you can push them to the Lv. 20 cap and win by sheer stats.

After the battle, you’ll be rewarded with the PoisonHeart Badge!


oP

Chapter 2: Redemption

========================
Post-Gym Quests - EGear4
========================

Head outside of the gym and talk to Karrina. She’ll want us to go to the Junction Bridge on the left side of the city, so head over
there. It’s just south of the railroad station.

Head into the lab to battle Dr. Jenkel.

Mad Scientist Dr. Jenkel (Factory Field)


● Munna, Level 18. @ Elemental Seed.
○ Hypnosis
○ Psybeam
○ Moonlight
○ Light Screen
● Munna, Level 19. @ Elemental Seed.
○ Hypnosis
○ Psybeam
○ Shock Wave
○ Reflect
● Musharna, Level 20. @ PULSE Plus.
○ Mist Ball
○ Fairy Wind
○ Misty Terrain
○ Wish
oP

PULSE Musharna gains the Fairy typing and Misty Surge ability. Unfortunately, low stats including abysmal speed prevents it from
doing much damage. Take out the Munnas and hit it hard with STAB moves and you’ll be just fine.

After the battle, you’ll be gifted TM94 Rock Smash! Grab Blitzle to the south if you haven’t yet.

Head to the Magnolia Library, and talk to the guard of the stairs to the right. As you have a badge, she’ll let you pass.

Upstairs, you’ll find a Black Belt who will offer to teach more move tutor moves for shards.

Library 2F Move Tutor

Dual Chop 2 Yellow Shards


Block 2 Blue Shards
Super Fang 2 Red Shards

Of these, Super Fang can be useful for catching Pokemon, and Dual Chop can give you coverage against Dragon types if you really
need it.

Talk to the girl on the right. This is Zumi, and she’ll start us on a Pokedex collection quest. We’ll be back once we catch a Dedenne for
her.

Head into Venam’s house south of the hotel. Her mother will give you TM102 Poison Sweep! This is a new move that can be useful in
the early game. If you head upstairs you’ll find a Poison Barb.

Head back to Gearen Lab and talk to the girl sitting by the computer on the left. Now that we have a badge she’ll ask for some help
with an online fangame league. She’ll then give you a Badge Card. Talk to her again and agree to help out.
oP

Your first battle is against Falkner. I recommend choosing Cyndaquil and Onix. Use Ember and Rock Tomb and you should come out
on top. If you win, you’ll get a Virtual Badge. That’s all she needs for now, we’ll come back after we have two badges.

One shop has updated inventory now that we have a badge. Head to the Shopping Emporium.

Pokeball Emporium (1 Badge)


Heavy Ball $300
Moon Ball $300
Love Ball $300
Fast Ball $300

Love Balls are a very useful ball for their price if you’re willing to be conscious of their use. Pick up a few if you want.

Head back into the help center. You’ll be approached by Ayuda, who’ll give you a quest to collect Zygarde cells. He’ll give you the
Gather Cube to begin this quest. There are actually a few cells we can find around the map that we’ve been to already, so let’s
collect those now.

Head back to Mei and Ayuda to claim your reward: TM49 Echoed Voice!

This is all we can do in the city for now, so buy a $300 ticket to take the train east to Route 2!

========================

Swirlix 1 Igglybuff 1

Chingling 1
Remember to grab a female Combee if you want to evolve it to Vespiquen. Remember too to get Dedenne to continue Zumi’s quest.
We will be able to get Jigglypuff later if you can’t find Igglybuff, but Swirlix is unique to here, good luck. Ideally you can get two
Igglybuff since we’ll be trading one away later, but we’ll also be able to breed at that point.

Though you’ll have to buy a ticket again, at some point we’ll need to do a few things in the city -- I recommend doing them now.

First thing we can do is talk to Zumi, who’ll send you on the next mission to get Carbink. If you go to the Chrisola Hotel, our travels to
Route 2 will prompt the girl in the first room in the right hallway to give you Shinx! The last thing we need to do is grab a Pokemon
from our PC that knows Headbutt. The easiest way to do this is by grabbing the Seel we got from Game Corner, as it will have
Headbutt already. As soon as you’re ready, head back to route 2.

There are a few more encounter types we can find her with our new field moves.
oP

Route 2
Rock Smash % Headbutt Low % Headbutt High

Geodude (Kantonian) 60 Aipom 55 Caterpie 55

Shuckle 5 Pineco 10 Pineco 5

Butterfree 5 Pidgey 5

Burmy 5 Crabrawler 4

Metapod 4 Aipom 1

Beedrill 1
Each tree is either a “low” tree or a “high” tree. Low trees have more infrequent encounters, but typically the rarer Pokemon. North
of the bridge you’ll cross, the left tree is a high tree and the right tree is a low tree. Be wary of Pineco’s Self-Destruct.

As you cross the bridge, a weird tree will run away from you. You can talk to the Aipom up here to catch them instead of worrying
about Headbutt. We’ll actually want to catch TWO Aipom here for a trade later. You can find a Magical Seed in the isolated patch of
green northeast of this large tree. You can also find a GourmetTreat here:
oP

Also, there’s this:


ZCell 008: Route 2

If you use Old Rod, you can only find Finneon here.

If you talk to Kecleon, he’ll sell you stuff. We’ll be back for a sidequest with him later.

Kecleon Market
oP

Pokeball $200
Potion $300
Antidote $100
GourmetTreat $1500
Repel $350

To the right, there is a gold healing star, useful as we won’t have to run back to the city to heal anymore.
oP

If you take the path across the bridge to the left, you can find a Rose Incense here.

If you talk to the painter here, he’ll wish to see Cherrim, Magcargo, and Zebstrika. We’ll return to this quest later. Talk to the lone
tree along this path a few times. After a scene, head to the entrance of Amethyst Cave to the northeast. Talk to Nim and you’ll enter
a battle!
oP

Apprentice Nim (Psychic Terrain)


● Lunatone, Level 18.

● Inkay, Level 20.
○ Psywave
○ Feint Attack
○ Hypnosis
○ Swagger
● Espurr, Level 20.
○ Psybeam
○ Disarming Voice
○ Reflect
○ Light Screen
The Solrock and Lunatone can be frustrating with Rock Slide, but anything speedier can knock them out without much difficulty.
Keep in mind dark moves like Bite are suppressed on this field. Espurr hits harder than you’d expect with Psybeam, but Inkay won’t
be that much of a threat. Hidden Power is boosted in this field, so if you have it on your special attackers, especially those with type
advantages, you’ll be fine. After you win, you’ll be given a TwistedSpoon!

After you’re done, enter Amethyst Cave.

Carbink 2
We will need Carbink for Zumi’s quest.

You can find a Nugget to the left, around the first mine cart behind a smash rock. Head to the right, and downstairs. There’s a
stalactite on the left that contains an HP Up. After talking to Ren, head east. There’s a Zinc in the small rock pile to the right of the
bridge.

Head back around and across the southern bridge, and head downstairs. In the bottom right of this room, you can give a
GourmetTreat to catch Lunatone. You can also find a Revive in a rock to its left.
oP

Heal and save, then head up. You can partner up with Ren or with Venam to take on Zetta.

Team Xen Zetta


● Dratini, Level 20. @ Eviolite.
○ Dragon Breath
○ Thunder Wave
○ Reflect
○ Light Screen
● Sneasel, Level 20.
○ Night Slash
○ Pursuit

○ Defense Curl
○ Charge Beam
● Type:Null, Level 23. @ Sitrus Berry.
○ Aerial Ace
○ Flame Charge
○ Shadow Claw
○ Crush Claw
This can be a tough battle, especially since you can’t control your partners. Gloom and Minior can be pains to take out, especially
under Dratini’s screens. Make sure you have something with some defense to take out Type:Null at the end and this won’t be too
bad.

Once you win against Zetta, you’ll end up in the rift. Pick up the Rift Dex to learn about Rift Galvantula. After gathering the Joltik
located around the forest, Partner up with Ren or Venam again and take on Rift Galvantula!

Dimensional Rift Galvantula


● Joltik, Level 22.
○ Electroweb
○ Toxic Thread
○ Struggle Bug
○ Confusion

● Galvantula, Level 27. @ Demon Stone.
○ Electroweb
○ Cross Poison
○ Toxic Thread
○ Sucker Punch
This one isn’t too bad, though the Joltik are annoying with their Electrowebs. Unless you have priority you’re gonna end up going
last, so have something with enough special defense to take their Electric/Bug/Poison attacks and hit back hard. My Chimecho with
Extrasensory was key to taking out Galvantula for me, though note its defense is much lower than its special defense.

When you regain control, check Melia’s bag to get the Room ID Card!

We now have access to the north side of Amethyst Cave, so backtrack to the top and head up. Before we continue exploring though,
there’s a few more things we can do in Gearen City. You can wait on these till our next trip if you want, but I’ll cover them now.

First, now that we have Carbink, talk to Zumi again. This time she’ll want to see Ledyba. Head over to Jenner’s Lab once more, and
scan Melia’s Room ID Card on the door. Inside, you’ll find an Exp. Share! With both this and Exp. All, it’ll be a breeze to bring a new
team member up to speed. Read the notes underneath, then check the wardrobe to get Audition Tape. Play it in the computer for a
little lore cutscene.
oP

Anyways, back in Amethyst Cave, we can head north. Here’s our first water source if you want to catch the two fish. For now we
can’t do much in this area, so head north for a brief scene. Before entering this door, head west. This stalactite contains a Zinc. The
rock all the way to the left contains an Electric Gem. Head back down the stairs and interact with the cart full of gears to battle a
Klink.

Head through the door and go up. Activate the panel in this room, then head through the southeast exit. Finally, head up through
the doors to get to Sheridan Village.

========================
Sheridan Village - SVill1
========================

Listen to a cutscene with Aelita and the Elder, then head north. Enter the first house on the right. This is the Move Reminder’s
house, but as she says, you can’t use her services until a quest way later is done. You can fish here, but it’s only Goldeen and
Finneon. There’s an HP Up in the blue flower near the trucker. This trucker will drive us for free between Sheridan and Gearen, so
take advantage of this instead of paying the train fee whenever possible.

Battles in Sheridan take place on the Forest Field.

It’s annoying to be sure, but we’re gonna need a Ledyba for Zumi, and this is the only place to get it for a long time. You can also rock
smash here, but it’s just Kantonian Geodude, Dwebble, and Shuckle like on Route 2 (but the later are rarer here).

The girl in the right house will agree to let us remember moves on our Pokemon for Heart Scales, but only one time per two days.
This limit will increase way later.

Enter the room on the right side of the village, and agree to help the girl inside. In her house is a Soda Pop. Outside, if you head up,
you can talk to the Elder, and inside, read Aelita’s diary in the first room. The second contains a Revival Herb.

A house in the upper left contains a girl that will give you a Sweet Heart. The older lady here is the Day-Care Lady, who will raise two
of your Pokemon and, if compatible, produce an egg. The top middle house is the Pokemon Center of sorts, containing a PC. The
woman on the right will offer to teach you a few more moves for shards.

Sheridan Village Move Tutor

Worry Seed 2 Red Shards


Uproar 2 Green Shards

In the room to the right of the help center, a woman will offer to trade Cleffa for your Igglybuff. If you haven’t caught one yet, we
will find Jigglypuff in a bit that can be bred.
oP

If you go back down and left, you can enter the shop from behind. If you talk to the shop owner from behind, you’ll get a Super
Potion! If you enter from the other side, she’ll sell you stuff:

Sheridan Village Shop


Poke Ball $200
Great Ball $600
Potion $300
Super Potion $700
Ice Heal $250
Antidote $100
GourmetTreat $1500
Super Repel $500
Reverse Candy $50

Enter the shop on a weekday morning and you’ll see Beth and her Miltank. Talk to her to get a free Moomoo Milk sample, then her
shop will open:

Sheridan Village Drinks (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday Mornings Only) (1 Badge)
Berry Juice $100

Once you’re ready, we can take care of two sidequests. For the first, head back into Amethyst Cave and reach the second room.
Interact with this box of plants, then head north. Go to the west side of the room, where you’ll see a man getting assaulted by
Solrock. Challenge it to a battle and catch it to proceed.

After a … bizarre… scene, you’ll get Herbal Tea and Carbos. This will also start a quest for Ditto that we’ll continue later.
oP

Next thing we’re gonna do is go talk to Zumi, again. Her next objective is Skrelp, fishable in the sewers with Good Rod, which we
don’t have quite yet. Head back to Sheridan when you’re ready.

That’s about all we can do in the Village proper, so heard north into the Sheridan Arena.

Head up, and talk to the Swablu flying overhead for a battle. Then enter the house and talk to Keta in his back room and accept his
quest.

After accepting his quest, head all the way out of the village and go back all the way through Amethyst Cave. Once at the entrance,
head west until you see a red rock. Touch the stone, and a door will open. Enter and go downstairs.

Battles here take place on Blessed Field.

Catch a Meowth here if you missed the Shadow one. We’re eventually (and I mean, like 3 or 4 chapters later) able to trade away a
Dunsparce in an in game trade, so catch two if you want.

You can find a Heart Scale here to my right:


oP

Once you’re ready, talk to the spirit of Keta. He will give you the Soul Stone. Now, go back down to the right to where we fought
Zetta earlier.

After a brief scene, we’re ready to head back through Amethyst Cave to Sheridan Village to do Help Quests. The help center is
located in the upper right part of the village.
oP

Sheridan Quest 1: The Hidden Library 2


● Start outside the help center, and talk to the backpacker.
● Truck to Gearen, then go to the Chrisola Hotel and talk to Karen in front.
● Head to Dr. Jenkel’s lab and watch the scene
● Go to Gearen Park, and talk to Karen. Enter the library.
● Pick up the green book behind the pillar at the entrance.
● Enter the main chamber, and pick up the blue book.
We can actually encounter Pokemon here, but there’s only 1 type: Unown!
● Pick up the purple book nearby. Go right for the orange book and up for the red book. Also:
ZCell 010: Hidden Library
oP

● Go down. Pick up the lime book, and TM77 Psych Up.


● Head back up and go all the way up, picking up the sky blue book.
● Follow Karen into the north room. On the left, pick up the golden book and the Good Rod. On the right, pick up the lemon
book.
● Now that we have found nine books, head back to where we saw Elgyem flying by earlier. Interact with the bookshelf its on
and place the books inside. A level 1 Elgyem will then battle you!
oP

● Head back into the upper room and talk to Karen.


● While she’ll get the Mega Ring, you’ll get the Ancient Book. This will allow you to read Garufan prophecies. Check out the
ones on the wall, if you’re interested.
● Head back to Sheridan Village when you’re done, and talk to the backpacker.
● You can choose to give him the book or not. I recommend NOT giving him the book, but if you choose to, you’ll get Blue
Moon Ice Cream!
● Claim your reward: $550 and Water Stone! This can evolve Panpour for now, if you want.

Sheridan Quest 2: Stolen Cargo!


● Use the trucker to get to Gearen City, then go to Oceana Pier. Head to the southeast, then follow the guy into the
warehouse.
● If you try to go north, you’ll get shocked, and your Pokemon will faint. The key here is to transform the Factory field into
Short-Circuit via battling the Electrike trainer in the southwest and getting it to use Discharge. Once you’ve done this, head
through the middle arrows.
● Venam will join you for a battle. Once you’ve won, she’ll leave.
● Before we leave the warehouse, interact with the panel to switch the direction of the middle tile, then head right. Grab TM09
Venoshock then head back to Sheridan.
● Claim your reward: $800 and TEN GourmetTreats. You can sell a few of these even if you need the cash.

Sheridan Quest 3: Cute Pokemon!


● First, grab one Aipom from your PC. If you didn’t get one yet, go to Route 2 and interact with them. Then go to Sheridan
Arena.
● Talk to the girl with blue hair, then trade for Pancham.
● Claim your reward: Rare Candy!

Sheridan Quest 4: Get an Item!


● Start by heading through Amethyst Cave to Route 2.
oP

● Talk to the upper Kecleon, who will be revealed to be Ditto! This will continue the Ditto sidequest for later.
● Pick up one of the blue item balls. If you have 50,000, you’re welcome to pay for the item, but if not, you’ll get teleported to
the THIEF’S DUNGEON!
● After talking to the grunt and getting out, memorize the map on the wall. If you don’t take the path outlined, you will get
destroyed… Enter the door that corresponds to yellow to get a Shiny Stone, Ice Stone, or Dusk Stone depending on random
chance.
● We don’t actually need the item, so if you lose and go back to Sheridan, it will continue. However, we get something nice for
succeeding, so try this: my recommended strategy: save before taking the item and reset until you get a possible dungeon.
● Once you… finally… succeed, return to the help center, and get Blue Moon Ice Cream! You won’t get this if you do not make it
out alive.
● Claim your reward: $850, Casteliacone!

Sheridan Quest 5: Battle Me Again


● Talk to Novae, then prep your team and enter Amethyst Cave.

Wanderer Novae (Crystal Cavern)


● Trumbeak, Level 27.
○ Fury Attack
○ Rock Smash
○ Pluck
○ Rock Blast
● Charjabug, Level 27.
○ Spark
○ Acrobatics
○ Dig
○ Crunch
● Lycanroc, Level 28.

○ Trop Kick
○ Teeter Dance
○ Attract
● Sandygast, Level 27.
○ Hypnosis
○ Rock Tomb
○ Bulldoze
○ Giga Drain
● Passimian, Level 29.
○ Brutal Swing
○ Bulldoze
○ Rock Smash
○ Work Up
This is a tough one, two of her party members are already fully evolved and hit really hard. Plus, your levels are guaranteed to be
under hers at this point. I only managed to win this one by having Passimian Bulldoze the ceiling and thus, knocking itself out, but it’s
definitely possible if you have a good team. It’s also not crucial that this gets done now, but it’s nice!
● After the battle, return to the help center. Your rewards: $1600, and Eevee.

Now is a good time to catch up on one encounter we now have access to thanks to the Good Rod we picked up.
oP

If you head to the Abandoned Sewers, we can now get Skrelp (20%). After catching it, go talk to Zumi in the library to get our next
target: Zangoose.

While we’re near the sewers, enter Karrina’s hideout. Talk to her, and she’ll send us on the gangfight quest. Head to Route 2 and
enter Amethyst Cave.

Head up, and before taking this room entrance, head west across the bridge. Beat the guy at the end to get Houndour!

That’s all we can take care of for now, so head back to Sheridan to see Keta.

========================
Diamond Punch Badge? - Badge1.5
========================

As soon as you’re ready, talk to Keta in his house, then appear on the other side of him for a battle.

Sensei Keta (Forest Field)

● Combusken, Level 21. @ Charcoal.


○ Cut
○ Gale Strike
○ Protect
○ Flame Burst
● Mienfoo, Level 21. @ Coba Berry.
○ Drain Punch
○ Fake Out
○ Rock Tomb

○ Rock Tomb
○ Meditate
● Pignite, Level 22. @ Payapa Berry.
○ Flame Charge
○ Gale Strike
○ Rock Tomb
○ Fire Punch
● Lucario, Level 23. @ Black Belt
○ Gale Strike
○ Drain Punch
○ Rock Tomb
○ Bullet Punch
This battle is the first to really show you how well the trainers compensate for their type disadvantages here -- almost everything has
a Dark or Rock type move. Yet, Chimecho really came through for me here, taking out 4 of his Pokemon and a huge chunk of
Lucario’s HP before fainting. Scraggy is a good dud to leave out, especially if you can paralyze it -- it doesn’t do enough damage to
really be threatening at least compared to his other Pokemon.
oP

We should get the badge here, but Sensei runs off. We have one more quick thing we can get right now. Since the Elder has moved,
you can run behind her house and grab a Lava Cookie. Return to the arena, talk to the Elder, and then follow Aelita into the waterfall
cave.

========================
Carotos Mountain - CMount1
========================

You’ll team up with Aelita here, so she’ll heal you but catching wild Pokemon is a bit tougher. Battles here are fought in Volcano
Field.

Carotos Mountain
Cave % Old Rod %

Numel 41 Numel 70

Slugma 30 Slugma 30

Onix 10 Good Rod

Roggenrola 9 Slugma 100

Sandshrew (Kantonian) 9

Nosepass 1

The first grunt you’ll find has a Shadow Vanillite. Around to the left is a Carbos. Once you cross the bridge to the right, prepare for
battle and talk to the robotic looking thing. It will challenge you and has a Shadow Ponyta!
oP

Head through the door and battle the Xen Grunts. There’s a PC here for quick team switches if you want to take advantage of
Aelita’s heals. I recommend leveling Slugma, Cherubi, and Blitzle, as we’ll need their evolved forms for a quest later. The second
grunt will have a Shadow Bonsly. Defeat SEC and his Flareon.

If you head to the right and down, you can grab TM43 Flame Charge. Observe the passwords written all over the walls in this floor.
There is a Fire Stone if you follow the path to the right. Right now this will evolve Pansear or Eevee.

SEC will require you to input a password to move on. The passwords are, in order, BEAUTY, IDOL, SHADOW. Talk to it a few more
times and it will challenge you with a Shadow Quagsire.

Once you’re ready, go up the elevator and head towards Madelis’ Palace. Go inside when you get the chance to, and you’ll team up
with Keta.

Head into the left room. Grab the Hyper Potion on the left and Revive up above. At the top of the room, grab the Yellow Key.

Head back out, and go into the right room. Talk to Sharon to get the Green Key and grab the Fresh Water in the top right. Talk to
Mime Jr. in the top right to take it with you.

Go back and enter the top left room. Grab the Red Key.

Finally, enter the top right room. Make sure you grab the Up-Grade, Dusk Ball and the Blue Key.

Head back out into the foyer and insert each key into the keyholes on the walls.

Head up, then up again. You’ll now have to fight Madelis.

Xen Executive Madelis (No Field)


oP

● Floette, Level 23.


○ Sunny Day
○ Aromatherapy
○ Dazzling Gleam
○ Protect
● Salandit, Level 23.
○ Poison Gas
○ Flame Burst
○ Venoshock
○ Fake Out
● Golbat, Level 24.
○ Wing Attack
○ Confuse Ray
○ Double Team
○ Venoshock
● Aromatisse, Level 24.
○ Calm Mind
○ Reflect

● Houndoom, Level 25. @ Chople Berry.
○ Snarl
○ Flamethrower
○ Thunder Fang
○ Crunch
● Shadow Mewtwo, Level 27.
○ Energy Ball
oP

○ Psychic
○ Miracle Eye
○ Aura Sphere

This battle looks rough, but you’ll have Keta on your side, so it’s functionally a 12 on 6. A rock type (for me, Lycanroc) can demolish
half of her team, and Keta’s fast fighting Pokemon will help you out. Two of them have fake out, so when you get to Mewtwo, try to
take advantage of those turns to deal heavy damage to Mewtwo. Once you turn the battle to a 2 on 1, Mewtwo will go down.

Afterwards, head into the door behind Madelis’ chair, and go down the lift.

We haven’t had enough legendary battles with only one gym badge quite yet, so follow Aelita up and grab the Rift Dex Info.

After a brief scene, you’ll be taken into a rift space. Talk to Volcanion and answer its question and the battle will begin!

Dimensional Rift Volcanion


● Volcanion, Level 23. @ Demon Stone.
○ Water Pulse
○ Overheat
○ Bulldoze
○ Rock Slide
I two shotted this with Rock Tomb on Lycanroc. I’m sure you can find something that works. After a hilarious cutscene, you’ll regain
control.

Go all the way down in Sheridan and talk to Aelita and the Elder. Touch the Celebi statue to go to the Shrine of Purification. After a
scene, you’ll be able to purify any of your Shadow Pokemon, given you’ve opened their hearts. Purified Shadow Pokemon tend to
have special moves, so it’s a good idea to try this.

Once you leave the shrine, head into the house to the left. Gothitelle will throw a Nuzleaf at you to catch. Neat.

========================
Diamond Punch Badge - Badge2
========================
Well, that’s about all we can take care of at this point.

Head back to Amethyst Grotto with a fully healed team.

The Spirit of Keta will be able to give us a badge, so let’s challenge him.

Sensei Keta (Blessed Field)


oP

● Donphan, Level 22
○ Rock Tomb
○ Bulldoze
○ Ice Shard
○ Poison Sweep
● Roselia, Level 23. @ Occa Berry.
○ Magical Leaf
○ Hidden Power Water
○ Venoshock
○ Leech Seed
● Ninetales, Level 23. @ Charcoal.
○ Flame Burst
○ Will-o-Wisp
○ Extrasensory
○ Feint Attack
● Krokorok, Level 23. @ Sitrus Berry.
○ Bite
○ Bulldoze
○ Hone Claws
○ Poison Sweep
● Lapras, Level 24. @ Sitrus Berry.
○ Frost Breath
○ Water Pulse
○ Freeze Dry
○ Confuse Ray
● Gallade, Level 25. @ Leftovers.
○ Drain Punch
oP

○ Psycho Cut
○ Rock Tomb
○ Poison Sweep
Compared to Novae, this battle won’t be too hard. Lapras and Gallade were the most threatening members of his team. Especially if
you have Exp. All, you should have lots of leveled up options at this point to counter each of his Pokemon, so build the best team to
take him out.

After you win, you’ll get the Diamond Fist Badge! This enables you to cut, and puts our level cap at 30. He’ll also leave behind TM103
Stacking Shot.
oP

Chapter 3: Tainted Light

========================
2 Badge Quests - 2BQuest1
========================
There are a few quests we can get out of the way right now, but let’s grab a useful item first.

Heal your team and head into the gate west out of Sheridan Village. You’ll encounter Amanda, who’ll challenge you to a battle.

Trainer Amanda
● Bronzor, Level 24. @ Heat Rock.
○ Sunny Day
○ Gyro Ball
○ Confuse Ray
○ Psywave
● Weepinbell, Level 25. @ Miracle Seed.
○ Razor Leaf
○ Knock Off
○ Sleep Powder
○ Hidden Power Fire
● Miltank, Level 24.
○ Stomp
○ Milk Drink
○ Thunder Wave
○ Stacking Shot
● Charmeleon, Level 25. @ Charcoal.
oP

○ Flame Burst
○ Dragon Rage
○ Sunny Day
○ Air Cutter
● Torracat, Level 26. @ Muscle Band.
○ Swagger
○ Flamethrower
○ Bite
○ Double Kick
This is a surprisingly tough battle, namely due to Miltank. Once it paralyzes your Pokemon and starts stomping, it’s hard to get off a
hit sometimes. You can shut down her sun strategy with a different kind of weather but really anything that resists fire can do well
here. Watch out for Charmeleon’s Dragon Rage - almost all your Pokemon will get 2 or 3HKO’ed at this point. Anyways, after battle,
she’ll give you HM01 Cut!

There are a few areas we can now access with Cut. Head back out into Sheridan Village and cut the tree directly above you, and pick
up TM54 False Swipe. This can be extremely helpful for catching Pokemon going forward. In the daycare, you’ll find you can now get
some water:

Sheridan Village Drinks (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday Mornings Only) (2 Badges)
Berry Juice $100
Fresh Water $200

Head back down into Amethyst Cave, and make your way to the first room from the South. On the northwest side, there are some
rock smash boulders blocking your path. Smash them and emerge in Pom-Pom Meadow. Cut the trees down here to get access.

You can find infinite Yellow Nectar in the pots.


oP

Pom Pom Meadow

Cutiefly 40

Oricorio (Pom-Pom) 35

Dustox 5

Once you’re done, yet onto Route 2 and cut the tree to the left. There’s a hidden Magical Seed below the skinny tree here. That’s all
we can do with the HM for now, so head back to Gearen City.

Go talk to Shana in the Gearen Lab to continue the Johto quest. You’ll now have to fight Bugsy with the starter you picked and a few
more Pokemon. I picked Cyndaquil, so this was an easy one. After this, you’ll get another Virtual Badge! This will finish her leg of this
quest.

Head into the Magnolia Library and talk to the blue haired girl. This is Erin, a character we’ll know a lot later. This sets up a quest we
can do later. I recommend buying the Golden Axe right now, as you won’t need to waste a moveslot on cut.

The ball shop has added one new type of ball. It’s not particularly useful for its cost.

Pokeball Emporium (2 Badges)


Heavy Ball $300
Moon Ball $300
Love Ball $300
oP

Fast Ball $300


Nest Ball $1,000

Finally, head to Gearen Park. Now that we have 2 badges, you’ll also see a Budew hanging around. It will battle you if you give it a
GourmetTreat.

========================
Route 3 and Phasial Cave - 3Route1
========================

As soon as you’re ready, head back to Route 3. Talk to the guy in the trailer across the bridge. Since we have two virtual badges, he’ll
offer the third leg of the quest -- we’re battling Whitney. I had Quilava, Onix, and Qwilfish, so I took advantage of Clefairy to set up
all the hazards before having to deal with Miltank. After winning, you’ll get the third Virtual Badge.

That’s not all, he’ll then offer you the next challenge, this time against Morty. The key to this one was putting Misdreavus to sleep
with Eevee then getting three Minimizes on Qwilfish then getting a full Rollout. If you don’t have luck in your favor, you can always
reset. Grab your fourth Virtual Badge. That’s all we can do with him for now. The girl here is the Move Deleter, should you need to
remove any moves.

Route 3 Upper Left Vendor


Reverse Candy $50
Sachet $1000
Soda Pop $300
Sweet Heart $100
Whipped Dream $1000

We’ll eventually need Sachet and Whipped Dream to evolve Swirlix and Spritzee from earlier. We’re also eventually (like, 3 or 4
more badges, but still) gonna want 10 Sweet Hearts for a quest, so go ahead and get those.

Route 3 Upper Right Vendor


Vanilla Ice Cream $400
Choc Ice Cream $600
Berry Ice Cream $800

She’ll also rarely have Blue Moon Ice Cream to sell. Ideally, we want to get a few of each for a sidequest later. Head into the RV for
the next part of the Ditto event. Talk to the hiker for some Rose Tea. Head outside and cut the trees to get TM88 Sleep Talk.

Head down for a battle!

Rorim B. What a guy. This battle isn’t too hard, but if you let Lilligant or Vivillon set up all the way on you you could find yourself
getting swept. Just make sure nothing gets a chance to set up, especially if you’re confused by Teeter Dance, and you should be able
to win.

We’re actually going to explore the cave on the other side of the route now, so head up to the top of Route 3 and go across the
bridge and into Phasial Cave. Battles here are fought in the Cave field.

Old and Good Rod encounters are the same as outside. Grab the Blue Shard to the bottom right after you come in. Once you’re
ready, head out into the grassy area. There’s a Moon Stone in the bottom left tile in this area next to the cave entrance. You can use
this on Skitty, Nidorina, Jigglypuff, Clefairy, or Munna right now. Head out and through the bottom of the cave.

Head all the way to the bottom of the route and attempt to enter Goldenleaf Town. After a brief scene, head back up Route 3.

========================
Mirage Woods - MWoods1
========================

There is one more area we can explore right now, but it’s completely optional. Skip ahead if you don’t care about this one.
oP

Head back to the top of Route 3 and enter the clearing on the left. Cut down the trees. After fighting some trainers and finding some
hidden items, talk to the Hiker at the top. He’ll suggest the wing to the statue has been lost on Route 3. We’ll go grab that in a bit,
but there is one new Pokemon to find here. Fishing is the same as Route 3.

Ancient Kingdra (Forest Field)


● Kingdra, Level 48.
oP

○ Rain Dance
○ Thunder
○ Surf
○ Icy Wind
This is gonna be a tough one. One advantage you have is that Surf is weakened in the Forest Field, so your bulkier mons have a
chance to survive it. My Zebstrika lived with a single HP, living long enough to Thunder Wave it, then I slowly whittled it down. It
doesn’t have any way to heal, so once you paralyze it you have a chance to beat it. I only ended up succeeding because it missed
Thunder twice in a row, but that’s just how it is. If you can’t beat it now you can come back later.

Once you succeed, head north across the bridge. There’s a Black Flute in the patch on the ground to the left of the waterfall.

If you enter the left house, there’s a Steam Ball on the ground. Talk to the scientist in the top right, then he’ll let you into the other
buildings. The bottom right building contains an Itemfinder! From this point on I won’t put any pictures of certain hidden items, but I
will point them out if they’re in the area. I recommend going back to previous areas to scan for non-essential items at this point as
well. Setting it to F5/Shift is what I recommend.

If you haven’t yet gotten TM70 Flash from the Casino, I recommend doing that now. We’re gonna need it for a quest soon. Once you
have Flash taught to a Pokemon, enter the upper right house.

ZCell 011: Mirage Cave

Grab the cell and TM66 Payback.

Head up and agree to use Flash, and a battle will ensue.

paralyze Crobat, then Lycanroc to finish it off. However you manage to win this battle, you’ll get a Zubat afterwards!

Once you’re ready, head back to Sheridan Village.

========================
Sidequests and Sewers Visit 2 - Sewer2
========================

Take the train back to Gearen City and talk to Zumi in the library. She’ll take your Zangoose data and FINALLY give us our last target
for the quest: Drifloon.

Talk to the gym guide in Venam’s gym, then head to the Abandoned Sewers through the east entrance. Follow the east wall and
walk through the glowing crack in the wall. This will take us to Chrysalis Courtyard.

up a new party for the next gym leader.
oP

After Venam asks you to figure out how to get in, read the inscription to the right: Password #3: 8187. Head over to the left side and
enter the left hole in the hedge to get a PP Up.

Go back down and through the second hole. Enter the gatehouse and grab the key. Open the first gate, and watch a scene. Head
back into the gatehouse and interact with the back wall. Enter the new hole. And exit through the hole in the hedges.

Head up into the new area of the courtyard. Talk to Venam at the door, then follow the secret entrance to the left, and enter
through the window.

Once you regain control, heal and use the PC as necessary. Then, exit down and go around to the stairs. Go up, then go into the left
room on the second floor and talk to Marianette. Once she’s joined you, talk to the maid near the stairs. We’re gonna have to find a
slacker maid somewhere downstairs in a bit.

When you go back downstairs, take the mini-stairs down into the house entrance. There’s a little door above this staircase on each
side. Enter the right one, then go up and talk to this maid. She’ll start us on another quest. Head out to the courtyard again, and
enter the tall grass to the right. There’s a secret hedge entrance here, so take it and grab the bracelet. Bring it back to the maid.
After a battle, she’ll leave. Head back upstairs to where the first maid was, then go through the path to Indriad’s room.

He’ll send you on three trials. Before we do that though, talk to the maid in the foyer and she’ll give you a bonus trial we can do
while completing the others.

For the first, take the downstairs left door to the Hedge Garden. Maneuver through the garden. Pick up a Revive by going up the
second path from the left at the very bottom. If you follow the middle path towards the right side, you’ll find a maid to battle for the
other maid’s quest. Following this path northeast, you’ll find an Elixir in the upper right, and a Rare Candy below it. Over here is
another inscription. It says Password 1 is 7896. If you follow this path up and around, examine the shining object to get the Poolside
key.
oP

Follow the left most path from the bottom and enter the stairs at the top. Release the soul trapped within the box.

Now follow the right path to the pool. If you hug the left wall and go through a secret passage, you’ll see another inscription. This
one says Password 2 is 3135. Head back out and beat the maid hiding in the bottom right corner. Enter the house in the top corner
and press the button, then head back out to the pool and enter the pathway. Interact with the hole. You’ll now be in control of
Marianette.

Go up, then take the bottom left teleporter. Follow this linear path to the door and release the soul inside.

Now we’re gonna take on the last trial. Head back out to the courtyard, but go down another screen and go to the very left, where a
maid will battle you. Head back inside to talk to the main maid, who’ll open some of the locked doors in the mansion. Head through
the door on the left, and go up. Inside you’ll find a Full Heal, Reverse Candy, Ability Capsule, and Elixir. Head upstairs and go into the
room on the right. Inside you’ll find a Rare Candy, Revive, Full Restore, and Max Potion. Finally, return to the room we woke up in
and go through the upper doors. You can’t go through with Marianette with you, so we’ll have to come back when she’s not with us
anymore.

Head back into the courtyard and enter the Absol statue. Talk to the mirror, then talk to it a second time. For Venam, choose bottom
left. For Ren, choose bottom right. For Aelita, choose top left, then rescue Venam from her box. Exit, and a brief scene will play.

Now that Marianette is no longer following us, we can go through the path in our room again. Enter the three passwords in the
machine, then head through the frozen prison to speak with Anju.

In here, it’s up to you what you ultimately want to say, as this is a split outcome. I recommend telling her the truth here as it will
open a sidequest later. To do so, tell her the world is safe, Sheridan is safe, but Hiyoshi is destroyed. If you do answer truthfully, she
will give you Anju’s Pendant!

This is the first gym battle that tends to start giving people problems. Overall what is said in the gym guide is good advice, though it
turns out Multipulse ACTUALLY works like a slightly weaker Judgement with minus priority - meaning Stantler’s is Ice, and Chatot’s
Ground, for example. The strong psychic type (Chimecho for me) that you’ve hopefully used during the last two gyms can help out
here tremendously, especially with Stantler, Chatot, and Bewear. Be careful to have a priority move waiting for Chatot as it can
easily sweep after a few work ups. As long as you have Pokemon able to dish out knockouts before getting revenge’d with
Multipulse, this battle should be winnable.

Once you win, you’ll be awarded with the Normality Badge! Our new level cap is now 35. Enjoy the following cutscene.

here till we get 4 badges though, so head back outside.

Talk to the trucker in the west side to head back to Gearen City - we’re gonna make our final pitstop with Zumi. If you’ve caught all
of her requested Pokemon so far, she’ll gift you the Advanced Pokedex! Helpful for if you’re anywhere without wifi looking up
Pokemon stats and moves on the fly.

As a note, this is about the time that I noticed I had like 117 AP and so I bought a few more Golden items as well as all of the EV
training cards. You can do these whenever you want, but it’s a good idea to get them at some point as eventually. I’ll still mention
each as we unlock the HMs. Anyways, once you’re done, head back to Goldenleaf.

Espurr will join you!

Head into the gatehouse on the left side and you’ll be recruited by “C” to take care of the Dimensional Rift, but only after a battle

bottom you’ll be able to find a Guard Spec.

Once you’re ready, interact with the dimensional rift to engage Level 45 Gyarados. Aside from level and the field change though, this
battle should be the same as earlier, just you now have a stronger and potentially full party. Take it out, and C will thank us.

========================
Wispy Tower - WTower1
========================

As soon as that’s over, head back to Goldenleaf. Once you’re ready, talk to the bully girl at the Giratina statue for a battle.
Afterwards head directly up, to talk to Narcissa at the gym entrance. Then, attempt to enter the Pokemon Center and Aelita will
battle you!

○ Force Palm

● Combusken, Level 31. @ Charcoal.
○ Flame Charge
○ Bulk Up
○ Thunderpunch
○ Night Slash
This isn’t going to be that tough of a battle - her team is mostly not fully evolved and doesn’t yet take advantage of the full power
STAB moves. A good electric and psychic type combo can tear through her.

Once that’s done, head back into the Pokemon Center and talk to Aelita at the top. After a scene you’ll be taken into a battle, then
told to go to Wispy Tower. Head outside, and you’ll have to fight in another battle. Enjoy the cutscene afterwards.

Return to Wispy Path, but take the north exit this time. Go inside the decrepit building and talk to Narcissa, then head back to
Goldenleaf to talk to her in front of the gym.

Once you escape the prison, we’re going back to Wispy Tower. Beat back the Xen Grunts along the path. The first, along the treeline,
has a Shadow Masquerain, but we can’t catch it since the Snag Machine is still jammed. Until we can get it back, I won’t be pointing
out Shadow Pokemon. Enter Wispy Tower and go through the newly revealed path. After talking to Geara, Mosely will join you.
You’ll get healed if you interact with them, but not double battled.

and into the middle room to activate that panel. Finally, activate the panel in the left room, and Mosely will leave. Go back upstairs
and through the doors, then go down.

Here, you’ll fight Eli and Sharon. After the fight, MAKE SURE YOU HEAL, then return and go downstairs and through the door. Go up

This is a really well put together doubles team that suffers from poor AI choices as he never seems to take advantage of status spam
+ hex. Regardless, the key here is knocking out the first five Pokemon and double teaming Giratina as we’ve done before. Haunter
and Clefairy are a lot tougher than you’d expect, so make sure you aren’t forgetting to factor in Eviolite. For me, Lycanroc + Rock
Slide did a considerable amount here, leaving Throh to Knock Off the Evioliters and take out Giratina for good.

Once you’re done, watch the scenes play out, enjoying some dinner. After you’ve left Narcissa’s house, talk to the breeder next to
the Pokemon Center for a repeatable battle against 3 Audino. I recommend getting Cherubi and Blitzle evolved here, as well as
Slugma to Level 35, if you haven’t yet, as well as your whole team and backups. With a hard level cap there’s virtually no reason not
to other than purposefully stifling levels, so take advantage as you want.

Enter the theater, and talk to Narcissa. After learning of your challenge, enter the door on the left. Battles throughout take place on
the Haunted Field.

dungeon. Although it may feel like you’re going in circles, just keep following the torches until you finally pass through a mirror and
get to the heal and PC stars. Head through the door.

This is a pretty easy battle to be honest. For me, Chimecho with Flash to change the field and extrasensory to be boosted by that
field was vital, as was Lycanroc. What a surprise. Once you’re done with Ren, say no to his question for maximum relationship
points, then head up and get ready to face Narcissa.

In the auditorium, head down and grab the items: Max Potion, Max Revive, and Hyper Potion. When you’re ready, take on Narcissa.

○ Night Shade
○ Will-o-Wisp
○ Spectral Scream
○ Pain Split
As you can see, Narcissa’s team is very tanky and will not hesitate to burn and sleep you to death, so make sure you have counters
for these things in place. The field is particularly annoying, since it neutralizes Dark moves -- the Janogram’s advice is great: if you
have Flash, use it! It’ll turn into a Blessed Field which will actively hurt her team. Just be aware she can turn it back by using Spectral
Scream. I personally used Cofagrigus and Chimecho as my flashers and let Lycanroc sweep through her team with Bite and Rock
Slide. Throh used Knock Off to neuter Dusclops, and Pyroar and Zebstrika finished it off.

Once you’re done, you’ll get the Phantasm Badge and TM30 Shadow Ball! Now we can level up to 40.

Chapter 5: Imprisoned

========================
Wispy Ruins - WRuins1
========================

Now that the people of Goldenleaf have decided to change their ways, they’ll give us some stuff. The girl in the house on the right
just above the Route 3 gate will give you a Super Potion, the guy on the right a Revive, and the girl on the left a Full Heal! Enter the
house in the southwest and talk to the grandma to get Dusk Balls!

Enter the house near the garden and talk to Snubbull! The person will let you have it now that we have 4 badges. Enter the bit of
Wispy Ruins by cutting the tree next to the gym. Step on the tile, then enter the newly opened 4 badge gate door. Inside the chest is
a Big Nugget! Head into the graveyard at the west of town at night with a GourmetTreat, and you’ll find a Misdreavus!
oP

Talk to Narcissa and Aelita near the Giratina statue. Enter the stairs and watch the scene, then go up in the cave. After going up
again, a couple of Shuppet will drop you into a pit.

Our goal here is to trap all of the Shuppet into corners. There’s one in the southwest - after it moves for the first time, go down, left,
down, up, right, right. Now go up to the west middle area where you’ll see another. Once it moves for the first time, go down, left,
down, then right until you can’t anymore, then up. Also, grab this Max Repel while you’re here.

Head down from here and you’ll see a Phantump wandering around. It is vital for an event later that you get a female one here, so
reset if it’s not. Head all the way north afterwards, and past another Phantump, enter the 2 badge gate. In here, you’ll get a Dawn
Stone!

Loop back around to the middle, around where the NPC is with the crazy hair. Head up and to the right and grab the Cleanse Tag,
then follow Shuppet down and up into the middle. Get it to go back through the big loop counter clockwise, then follow it. It should
now be on the upper path, so follow it right and get it to crawl into the small path in the middle, then talk to it.

Go up through the center and head left to grab the Calcium. Head up and chase the last Shuppet. For this one, get it to the platform
in the upper left, then to the platform to the right, and down. Talk to it, then return to the middle of the north side and the Shuppet
will let you pass. Before climbing the ladder, go up and enter the 1 badge gate to get a Dusk Stone! Head up and through the ladder.

ZCell 016: Wispy Ruins


oP

Head to the right. I recommend healing sometime soon, there’ll be a few battles upcoming. Once you’re done, return, then go up.
Follow the path until you reach a larger room. Hop your way past all the rocks on the right, then you’ll enter a double battle against
some Wild Pokemon. This is an easy fight as long as you have strong and fast Pokemon. Now, either proceed to the Mystery Egg
sidequest, or to Route 4 to continue the story.
oP

========================
Mystery Egg - MEgg1
========================

After a bit we won’t be able to return to Floria Island for a hot minute - so this is a good time to get this newly opened quest out of
the way. This will only get us a strong Pokemon, so if you’re not interested, go ahead and skip to the Route 4 section.

Go back through Wispy Ruins to Goldenleaf Town, then take the truck to get to Sheridan Village. We’re gonna take the female
Phantump we caught and breed it at the day care. Of what we have, male Cacnea, Oddish, Bellsprout, Sunkern, Cherubi, Slugma, and
Shuppet are all good choices for partners if you have them. Once you get a Phantump egg, make sure it doesn’t hatch, and walk to
Route 3.

This will only work during the daytime, but return to the Route 3 market, and talk to the boy in front of the old man. He’ll offer you a
trade of the mystery egg he just got for your Phantump egg.

The mystery egg is unfortunately determined as you start your savefile, so it cannot be re-determined by save resetting. Anyways,
the mystery egg will be one of these Pokemon: Azurill, Aron, Absol, Togepi, Sneasel, Dhelmise, Joltik, Axew, Mienfoo, Pawniard,
Trapinch, Drilbur, Cottonee, Darumaka, Solosis, Starly, Larvitar, Larvesta, Mareanie, Stufful, Wishiwashi. These will all be available
at some point later in the game, so don’t fret if you don’t get your favorite right now.

If you did happen to get Axew, once the egg hatches, bring it to Wispy Path and show the girl in the house near the Espurr event to
get Dragon Scale! If not, we’ll be covering this again later. For now, head back to Route 4 through Wispy Path.

========================
Route 4 - 4Route_1
========================
oP

Exit Wispy Ruins to the right. You’ll begin by talking to Aelita, then challenged to another game by Nim. Walking forward from here,
if it is morning, you’ll see flying Emolga. Interact with them for a chance to catch them.

Talk to the first Nim, Nim #1 we see on the left path before you go down the stairs, then grab the PokeBall nearby. We’re gonna
need to find all the Nim clones to move on. Down stairs, talk to Nim #2, then grab the Mystery Bowl up above.

Head now to the left and up the stairs. Here you’ll find Nim #3 wandering around, and Nim #4 above that. Above this you’ll see a
Lombre sitting on a bench. Give it a GourmetTreat for a chance to battle it!
oP

Head back down and to the right, and go down the stairs towards the beach. Before going back up, take a left to get another
PokeBall. Once you reach the clearing with the woman, head right towards the beach and talk to Nim #5 before you go down. Grab
this PokeBall, then head down to the beach to talk to Nim #6. Above is another PokeBall, but fear not, for the objectively more
useful TM45 Attract is just below.

If you head back up the stairs and to the left is another… PokeBall. Above to the left is a Reverse Candy. Use your itemfinder
immediately above that to find the Brass Key. We’ll use it for a sidequest in a bit.

To the left is Nim #7 wandering around. Walk up, then to the left and you’ll see Nim #8 on a platform.

Head up, and talk to Nim blocking the entrance for a battle.

Our second encounter with Nim sees her Pokemon with much stronger Pokemon with stronger Psychic attacks, but they’re still no
match for a decent team. I used Lycanroc Rock Slide and Zebstrika Discharge to nearly render them unable to attack. Be careful to
not let Malamar set up, but otherwise there’s nothing too threatening on her team. After she’s done she’ll give you the Bike
Voucher!

There’s one more quest we can start real quick here and a few to finish before we enter Akuwa Town.
========================
Lost Camp Part 1, and Floria Sidequests - LCamp1
========================
Again, these are more sidequests you can skip if you wish.

Head to the left, and talk to Mosely. Since we have the Brass Key, we can get by the gate. Enter Lost Camp, and talk to Maman. She’ll
quest us with finding kids to populate the camp, and if you talk to her again a few times, to upgrade the land. The land upgrades
total $2500 for the first wave, so do this if you have the money.
oP

You’ll be kicked from the camp once you upgrade, so head into Wispy Ruins and then return, and you’ll be let back in. She won’t
upgrade further until we’ve found four children - so let’s go ahead and start finding them. They’re actually located all over the world
map, so we’ll be taking a brief tour to get them all.

1. Teddie can be found by heading out of the Lost Camp and going south immediately after going right on Route 4.
2. Andrew can be found in Abandoned Sewers underneath Gearen City by crossing the first bridge north, then the first bridge
west, then the first bridge down in an alcove at the bottom.
3. James can be found by entering Spring of Purification from Sheridan Village. He’s on the left.
4. Marissa can be found on Wispy Path in the upper right corner of where Espurr played with you.

These are the only four we can get before we get a few more HM’s, so return to the Lost Camp and there’ll be a few new things we
can do. Strangely, a few orphans will sell you stuff as they get here, Andrew included. Talk to him at the camp if you want to buy EV
Berries:

Lost Camp: Andrew (1 Upgrade)


Pomeg Berry $600
Kelpsy Berry $600
Qualot Berry $600
Hondew Berry $600
Grepa Berry $600

Now, Maman will let us donate again. Donate another $2500, and the camp will be upgraded for a second time! Exit to Wispy Ruins
and return.

Strangely, Andrew will now have one more berry to sell.

recommend mapping this to a button to get around faster. I recommend also at this point buying the Golden Surfboard and, if you
have the AP, the Golden Claws. We won’t be able to come back here for a little while after getting surf, so if you don’t want to
burden your party, get the surfboard now.

There’s two more quests we can do -- the first requires us to have Cherrim, Zebstrika, and Magcargo. Since we finally can reach
Slugma’s evolution level, now is a good time to finish it. If you haven’t yet gotten these three, the Goldenleaf Town breeder is a good
choice to grind them out. Add all three to your party.

As soon as you’re ready, take the train to Route 2 from Gearen City with all three in your party. Afterwards, head up and left to the
RV. Show each of the three Pokemon to the artist to get Miracle Seed, Charcoal, and Magnet. You’ll also get TM96 Nature Power
afterwards! This T.M. can be useful in battles with unforgiving field effects.

This is all we can do for now.

========================
Akuwa Town? - AkuwaT1
========================
oP

Enter Akuwa town with Aelita, and when you get control, wander around a bit. There’s an egg in the bottom right corner of town.
Once it hatches, you’ll get Ducklett! There’s also wild Pokemon in the grass.

Akuwa Town
Grass: Morning % Grass: Day % Grass: Night % Old Rod

Jigglypuff 30 Girafarig 45 Skitty 20 Finneon 70

Delcatty 30 Skitty 20 Illumise 20 Goldeen 30

Blitzle 15 Blitzle 15 Noctowl 15 Good Rod

Lickitung 5 Lickitung 5 Delcatty 10 Alomomola 20

Audino 5 Audino 5 Volbeat 10

Audino 5

Lickitung 5
Note that Luvdisc can carry Heart Scales, which can be useful for move reminding later. A good strategy at this point, should you
want to farm heart scales, is to evolve a Poochyena from early game till it learns thief (Cred: DarkMasterKendall). They hold them
50% of the time or even more if you use Compoundeyes.

Head up to the gym area, but before you go in, directly head east. Here you’ll find Jessibelle, who you can send to the lost camp.
Enter the house to the north of the trucker:

ZCell 017: Akuwa Town


oP

Head down to the beach area -- here you’ll be able to fight wild Corsola. Head up and up the ladder you’ll see here and grab:
ZCell 018: Akuwa Town
oP

If you’ve encountered Ditto in four of its previous encounters it will now be here, ready to battle you. It’s very useful for breeding, so
get it now.

That’s about all we can do in Akuwa Town as long as… no one is here… so to continue the quest, talk to Aelita and then enter the
Pokemon Center and go to the back to get a Defibrillator, then use it on the old guy. Head back to where Ditto and the cell were,
then talk to Aelita there.
oP

Talk to the truck driver and head back to Sheridan Village. Now that we have Ditto, we can breed the Throh we got earlier. Talk to
the girl in the daycare with a Throh and she will trade you a Sawk! We could have done this with our only Throh earlier, but it’s nice
to have a copy just in case.

At this point we will not be able to come back for a hot minute, so make absolutely sure you’re ready with all the Pokemon you want
to catch on this island for now, and every quest you wanted to finish. I recommend buying a lot of Great Balls at this point -- we’ll
need them to catch some limited time Pokemon where we’re going.

Once you’re ready, head into the Aquarium/gym and go into the backroom…

========================
Blacksteeple Castle - BCastle1
========================

Blacksteeple is one of my favorite sections of this game, but it’s very story driven and has relatively few battles, items, wild Pokemon
and the like. I’ll be telegraphing every move you have to do during this part of the game, but I also do believe it’s more fun to play
this part without referencing any guide unless you get stuck. We won’t be able to come back later (at least in this version), so it
might be a good idea to scan this section after you’re done to ensure you don’t miss anything. As a note - the outdoor section in the
middle will be referred to as the courtyard, the east section will be the quarry, and the left section will be the fields.

Day 1

We’ll wake up in the cells. Anyways, in the fourth cell from the left, check under the bed for a Heart Scale. In the right most cell,
there’s an Ability Capsule under the bed!
oP

Exit the only way you can into the outside, and watch a guy get electrocuted. This will happen to us if we attempt to go where we’re
not allowed, so keep that in mind. Head east.

Go east and down to the beach to meet Saki and Adam. Then head back up and go all the way north to talk to Saki.

Exit Neved’s office and head back down the stairs and enter the main door and go up. Talk to the crew then go back out to the East
Quarry. Talk to the ranger in the green at the north side of the Quarry near a rock, then a trainer at the south before talking to
Valarie at the bottom. Talk to the group back in the main courtyard, and after a few scenes, that’ll end Day 1.

Day 2

We’ll get our next directive -- get the purple book upstairs, then get to the west wing fields. Exit to the courtyard and go up the stairs
and enter this first door to the library. Read the book on the table if you wish, then inspect the purple books on the shelf to the right.

Enter the fields, and head to where the Absol statue is. Hug the right wall and you’ll be able to go up into the Secret Grove.

Secret Grove (unavailable after Blacksteeple)

Tangela 50

Teddiursa 25

Mightyena 15

Abomasnow 4

Ursaring 4
oP

Swinub 2
I recommend catching everything here, though we will be able to get them later.

Head inside and talk to Saki and Braixen. Once you’re done here, exit, then talk to Saki from the back, and then Emma above. Talk to
Val and Saki down south to end the day… for the main character.

Once you have control of Emma, talk to the middle bookcase in the second row from the bottom in the middle left. Then talk to the
glass panel bookshelf in the center, then head in.

Day 3

Head out and talk to Val, then go back to the grove. Talk to Braixen and Val inside, then head out and inspect the right of the grove.
Val will then give you the Mining Kit. All those glowing rocks around can actually be mined for items, just like in 4th gen. The item
probabilities within are as follows:

These items can be nice to pick up, but you’ll be able to get them all over the story so don’t stress too much right now. Once we can
revive fossils, I will mention them all at once, but feel free to mine at your leisure. If you save in front of a rock and press F12, you
can reset the items within.

Anyways, go ahead and enter the cave. Talk to Val and Braixen at the top then again down at the L wire. We’re going to head back
out to talk to Saki. Enter the cells and talk to her in the second from the left.

Now, we’re gonna need to exit to the courtyard and climb two sets of stairs to get onto the right wall. Talk to the guard next to the
antenna. After the battle, exit the grove and get back to your cell.

Mine through the wall in the upper corner of your cell. After talking to the Piano Lady, you’ll be back in the Quarry. If you’re spotted
by any of the guards, you’ll be sent back to your cell. I recommend quick saving and resetting if you’re caught. Mine the rocks in this
area if you want, then carefully get to the courtyard and then to the grove.

Enter the cave and talk to Braixen. Talk to the three “R” boxes and then the pipes going into the black wall. As soon as you do, it’s
time for another battle with Madelis.

Be wary of Cinccino, as its 5-hit rock blast is boosted by the cave and tail slap hits really hard. Her Houndoom and Salazzle can hit
really hard but as long as you can shut them down with a strong Rock or Water type you’ll be ok. I used Lycanroc to tear holes in half
her team, and it wasn’t too tough.

Outside, Nancy will join up with you! Beat the guards as you go. She has a Level 65 Sylveon (!) so you shouldn’t have to worry much.
Once you get to the courtyard, head back up to Neved’s office. Heal and swap out your party, then head in.

Lycanroc did 100% of the work here for me. Strange. Anyways, be wary of Zoroark - Grass Knot hits harder than you’d expect if you
didn’t know that it had it. You have a 6 on 3 advantage though so this battle should be easy peasy. There’s an impossible battle
coming up as soon as we do the next cutscene, so make sure if you want to win, you have this Pokemon in your party (highlight the
text to see):

Fletchling from Oceana Pier with Quick Guard

Heal again, and go through. Follow the stairs all the way up. Aelita will join your party for this next battle.

○ Rock Slide
Neved has a team that’s entirely above your level cap, but you also get to effectively 12 on 6 him with Aelita on your side, so it’s not
too tough of a fight. Manectric and Froslass are arguably the hardest, being able to target and snipe many of your Pokemon with
their high speeds. Anyways, just keep up the pressure and make sure the fastest mons are out, then you and Aelita should be able to
win.

Well….

Madame X (No Field)


● Yveltal, Level 100. @ Soul Stone.
○ Decimation
This is one of those impossible RPG battles. Ultimately you’re suppose to lose this one obviously, but if you’re crafty, the game will
acknowledge your victory should you manage to succeed. A winning strategy is here in white look at it if you wish:

vvvv
oP

Decimation is a priority OHKO move, so use Quick Guard! Remember Fletchling from Oceana Pier with Quick Guard? Oh yeah.Drain
its PP with Quick Guard, then watch it struggle to death. May need some revives if your setup isn’t ideal.
^^^^

This is the end of the winning strategy. Whether you win or lose, watch the next scenes play out. Goodbye Blacksteeple Castle!

========================
Xen Battleship - XShip1
========================

We’ll wake up on the ship with Adam. Grab the Pokeball at the table to get Mawile.

Enter the battle room to the right. There’s a breeder in here who’s great for topping off your team and/or raising up new Pokemon.
There’s also the Akuwa town merchant here:

Head outside and go to the right to talk to Melia. Your Snag Machine will finally be fixed! Head up the stairs to the left and enter the
eastward facing door to grab the Dull Key! We’ll be using this a bit later.

As soon as you’re ready, re-enter the battle room to fight Melia at her strongest so far.

Melia has added three more Pokemon since last time, but her team is nothing too much for us, especially after Neved. Swampert did
most of the carrying for me in this battle.

After you win, head out to the deck and talk to Melia again.

========================
Terajuma Shore - TShore1
========================

Once you beach, you’ll have to battle two rangers. After the battle grab the 2 Passho Berries! I recommend using the soil around the
region to get more berries as we go.

========================
Terajuma Jungle - TJung1
========================

You’ll be free to explore Terajuma Jungle after a few cutscenes. It is expansive, but at least if this is your first time, you haven’t had
to explore it’s more frustrating iterations from versions past. Anyways,

There are also Hoppip flying around in the mornings.


oP

Once you’ve gotten a feel for the middle area, talk to the group of your friends, specifically Melia, on the left side. We’re going to
have to take the long way, so head into the left path and into the cave. After a brief conversation there’s just one thing left to do for
this section!

========================
Dewdrop Badge - Badge5
========================

Once you’ve healed, talk to Valarie outside for her gym battle.

Water Show Performer Valarie (Water Surface)


● Qwilfish, Level 37. @ Poison Barb.
○ Waterfall
○ Poison Jab
○ Bounce
○ Aqua Jet
● Lanturn, Level 38. @ Leftovers.
○ Thunderbolt
○ Ice Beam
○ Toxic
○ Tidal Wave
● Seismitoad, Level 37. @ Assault Vest.
○ Tidal Wave
○ Sludge Bomb
○ Drain Punch
○ Grass Knot
● Floatzel, Level 39. @ Muscle Band.
oP

○ Waterfall
○ Ice Punch
○ Aqua Jet
○ Brick Break
● Seaking, Level 39. @ Rindo Berry.
○ Megahorn
○ Waterfall
○ Poison Jab
○ Bounce
● Primarina, Level 40. @ Wacan Berry.
○ Sparkling Aria
○ Energy Ball
○ Moonblast
○ Ice Beam
So, this is the first hard gym battle, at least from my experience. Ground moves do nothing (even Mud Bomb for some reason), so
Qwilfish and Lanturn are harder to take out. That said, I just used Tangrowth to take out ⅚ of her party. Giga Drain is great here
especially when paired with Reflect/Light Screen - (you can get Meganium at this point as well as Light Clay). Be wary of Seaking with
LightningRod. Overall this is a tough battle but easy to cheese if you have the right strategies.

Once you win, you’ll get the Dewdrop Badge! Head back to where you had the battle, then talk to Melia to get HM03 Surf!

Chapter 6: Nimpossible Predicament

========================
Terajuma Island Surfing - TISurf1
oP

========================
First thing’s first: we can now explore all the bodies of water we want with Surf. There’s just a few things we can do on the pier and
shore areas, then we’ll continue in the jungle.

Start back at the first island map, where the shop is.

Cross the bridge to the right, then head down to grab a Full Heal. Go all the way up to Melia. You’ll then have to battle the Carnivine,
though you can’t catch it for some reason.

Follow her to the right, and grab the Sitrus Berries and Oran Berries. Save/heal before you head right, because a cutscene is about to
take us into a battle!

How did Geara level up/evolve his Pokemon in the altered dimension and get a Krookodile? Who knows. Anyways, this is a tough
fight for sure, especially as he uses the field well. His Krookodile and Persian each have boosted Grass moves, so be careful to not
send in slower water types. Marowak and Masquerain (the latter with boosted Bug Buzz) can be pains if you let them set up, so
setting up rocks can help tremendously here. Overpower him with stronger mons that counter his and you’ll be fine.

As soon as you’re done, we’re back in a rift. Heal and switch out your party, grab the pulse notes, then talk to the four creatures on
the four… Tangela? on the beach.

Dimensional Rift Carnivine (Rift Field)

● Tangela, Level 40.


○ Stealth Rock
○ Knock Off
○ Leech Seed
○ Heal Block
● Tangela, Level 40.
○ Spikes

○ Quash
○ Phantom Force
○ Gravity
● Carnivine, Level 45. @ Demon Stone.
○ Coil
○ Dim Snare
○ Sludge Bomb
○ Dragon Rush
This battle definitely looks like a tough one, but as before, the fact that it’s a double battle can be useful. The Tangrowth and Tangela
are really slow, so anything that can hit them hard and quick will do good. Gunk Shot from Muk one shot the Carnivine from me, but
it could potentially become threatening if you let it Coil enough times. Ultimately while this team has the potential to do damage,
the bad AI and utter slowness of the team makes it easy.

Enter the house here and grab the Focus Band. I recommend adding it to something on your team that isn’t holding an item - might
as well give your team an extra edge.

Exit and go to the right. Go down, as we can explore this upper area.

ZCell 020: Terajuma Jungle


oP

Exit north to Kakori Village.

Talk to the characters at the village. You’ll get an extra relationship point with Melia if you’ve already helped take out Rift Gyarados
in Goldenwood Forest.
oP

This moment clears all the vines in the jungle, so we’re going to head back down to grab a few things real quick. If you don’t want to
catch more Pokemon or get some items, jump to the next section now.

Before we start, grab a Dunsparce from the Pokemon Center PC.

Re-enter the forest, and talk to the first girl from the top. She’ll tell you she wants someone to watch her Growlithe. Similar to
Espurr, we’re gonna need to get some relationship points with it. Just like last time, we need relationship points with it. The fastest
way to do it is to talk to Aelita below, then play ball with it… 31 times. Once you’ve done this, have it follow you, then try to leave
the forest to the north and you’ll get Growlithe!

Head left a map, and enter the Weather Institute. The guy in the top right will trade for your Dunsparce a Castform! You can do this
infinitely if you want, in fact.

Head back out and go down. Here you’ll see a Vileplume in the ground. Sprinkle the Spice Powder on it, and it will attack. Cross the
bridge to get 3 Leppa Berries, 3 Pecha Berries, and a Tanga Berry. We’re gonna need more Spice Powder, so head to the shop at the
southwest corner of the jungle to get some.

From the shop, head north and east across the bridges, then all the way right until the clearing but go down instead. After taking out
another Vileplume, you’ll have access to Quick Powder and another cell.

ZCell 021: Terajuma Jungle


oP

Head to the shop to buy another spice powder. Then, head up then all the way left to the northwest side of this map, and go into the
clearing.

Just like the Pom-Pom Meadow back in Floria, here’s another meadow with another form of Oricorio to be found.

Grab two Oranguru if you can - one will be traded away later. In the pot, you can find infinite Pink Nectar. That’s all we can do here,
so head back to the jungle. There’s actually still one thing left to do before we proceed into the village… bet you weren’t expecting a
legendary Pokemon so early, were you?

Exit the jungle south to return to the pier. At nighttime, Surf in the bottom section of this area, and you’ll be able to interact with
wild Phione for a GourmetTreat! Unfortunately all 7 of the final evolved Water type starters are pretty much more useful than it, but
hey, it exists. Return to the village to progress the story.

===================
Kakori Village and Jeminra Woods - KVill1
===================
oP

Enter the third house from the left, on the upper row of houses below the cliffside. Talk to the woman, and she’ll run off to the Xen
Battleship. We’ll get to her once we have an easier way to get to the pier from here.

one.
There’s an entrance to the Safari Zone in the northeast side of town, so go ahead and enter for $3,500.

You’ll get 800 steps and 30 Pokeballs per run. I recommend grabbing a Level 35-38 Pokemon and a lot of repels - most of the 1%
encounter Pokemon (not Wobbuffet, though) are higher level than the rest, so you can parse for them via repels.

We can’t battle our Pokemon yet, therefore, we can’t purify this cave quite yet. We’ll get back to it. That’s about all we can do here.

Back at the gate, if you managed to survive the suffering and find a Chansey, show it to the girl for the Oval Charm! This will help us
find eggs in the day care more often.

We actually have access to Route 6’s grass at this point, so head west to Route 6.

Talk to the guy in the top right, and give him 5 Oran Berries to get the Wailmer Pail!

Enter the hallway at the top. In the community rec room, a girl will give you a Weakness Policy. In the room above that, grab the Up-
Grade then talk to the girl in the corner.

If you’ve done all the other virtual badge battles, she’ll let us continue the quest. If you’ve chosen Quilava, I again recommend
cheesing him with Qwilfish’s Minimize, unfortunately as it may be. Hitmontop and Steelix will have a Curse war if you try, and
Jolteon can’t take out Primeape or Hitmontop on its own. Anyways, win and get the fifth Virtual Badge.

Talk to her again to take on Jasmine. This is a bit easier - I had Typhlosion pop off against the first four Pokemon, using Miltank to
use Heal Bell when it became paralyzed. Qwilfish took out Steelix. Once you win, you’ll get the sixth Virtual Badge.

In the third room from the right in the hallway, grab the Escape Rope.

In the upper hallway, head left, and you’ll go through a cutscene with Melia. Return to the HQ, and enter the last room on the left.

After the battle, head up.

ZCell 022: Valor Shore


oP

Head up to Valor mansion, and watch the scene.

===================
Dexoy Attack - Dexoy1
===================

You’ll be placed back in Terajuma Jungle, so return to the south entrance.

We’re gonna be battling a lot of “Dexoys” here, which are Level 45 Deoxys with Thunderbolt, Psychic, Shadow Ball, and Flash
Cannon. Obviously they’re tough to take out, but in a pinch you can find a strategy. Mine was 2x Sucker Punch from Mawile, as it can
live all of its attacks as long as no critical hit action happens.

Enter the Xen Battleship, and the girl from earlier will be here. Talk to her, and she’ll run to the deck. After you talk to her again,
she’ll go into the main room. Finally, follow her to the very top through Augustus’ room. That’s all we can do here for now, so heal
and head back out to fight your way east through the Dexoys. Talk to the group in the middle, and you’ll be taken back to Kakori
after a cutscene.

Enter Crawli’s office. After a few scenes, you’ll wake up in a room. Tell Melia you’re “alright” for a relationship point. After the
conversation, enter the room to the left. After the conversation, head back outside.

Re-enter the house of the girl who we took to the boat, and she’ll give you a Destiny Knot.

Now is a good time to do the help quests.

===================
Kakori Help Quests - KakHelp1
oP

===================

Kakori Quest 1: Clear The Way!!


● Enter Terajuma Jungle and head south onto the hill and talk to the hiker.
● We’re gonna need to find 7 black shards around the forest. Here they are:
1. Immediately right of the hiker
2. In the map to the left, next to the stacks of wood by the Timburr
3. Heading left across the bridge and to the left, north by the broken bridge
4. South -> west -> north across the bridges from #3
5. North from #4, in the meadow.
6. In the bottom left side of the map where you fought Valarie
7. Near the water at the bottom side of the entrance map
● After you’ve gotten them, head back to the hiker. He’s now cleared the vines, so you can progress through the jungle easier!
● Head into the cave in the water below, which is now opened up. Grab the TM31 Brick Break!
● Return to the help center to get $1,780!

Kakori Quest 2: Bandit at Large


● Head to the weather institute in the jungle. Talk to the girl near the Venusaur on the left.
● Head to Route 5 and enter the empty shack on Valor Shore.
● We’re gonna need to find the Xen grunt hiding on each floor.
● 1F: In the middle stack of books
● 2F: In the box in the upper right corner
● 2F (#2): In the books in the center
● 3F: In the trash can on the top
● 3F (#2): In the horizontal lines of the bottom right big machine
● 3F (#3): In the pot on the top left
● Talk to her on the fourth level, and you’ll have to battle. You’ll be taken back to the weather institute.
oP

● Return to the help center to get a Bulbasaur egg, a Rare Candy, and $1,500!

Kakori Quest 3: Building Bridges


● Head to the lumber yard in Terajuma Jungle, and enter the building. Talk to the guy on the right, then Gurdurr.
● Head west to the bridge, and we’ll have to battle.
oP

PokeGang Conkeldurr (Forest Field)


● Timburr, Level 25.
● Timburr, Level 35.
● Timburr, Level 45.
● Timburr, Level 55.
● Timburr, Level 65.
● Conkeldurr, Level 75.
○ Rock Slide
○ Ice Punch
○ Brick Break
○ Thunder Punch
This is another double battle with one really tough enemy at the very end. You can use the easy Timburrs as an excuse to set up a lot
of entry hazards and/or set up with moves like Dragon Dance. Either way, come up with a strategy to take it out.
● Once you win, head west and go up to the broken bridge.
● Enter, then catch Rowlet in there. If you don’t get it now, you will be able to catch a fully evolved Decidueye later. You can
evolve Eevee into Leafeon here if you wish.
● Return to the help center to get $2,500 and a Sun Stone!

Kakori Quest 4: Find It!


● Head to the ranger shack in the southwest corner of the jungle. Talk to Roggenrola, and it will follow you.
● Exit the jungle towards Kakori, fighting AA Grunts along the way
● Heal at the Kakori Pokemon center, then talk to the guy in the top left.
● After one battle, return to the help center to get… $500.

Kakori Quest 5: Battle Me Again!


● Time for another battle with Novae. Get your best team and head to the Valor Shore.
Wanderer Novae (Battle 3)
oP

● Toucannon, Level 45. @ Yache Berry.


○ Beak Blast
○ Roost
○ Bullet Seed
○ Rock Blast
● Vikavolt, Level 46. @ Sitrus Berry.
○ Thunderbolt
○ Bug Buzz
○ Air Slash
○ Roost
● Lycanroc, Level 47. @ Focus Sash.
○ Stone Edge
○ Crunch
○ Accelerock
○ Swords Dance
● Tsareena, Level 48. @ Assault Vest.
○ Trop Kick
○ Knock Off
○ Play Rough
○ Power Whip
● Palossand, Level 49. @ Leftovers.
○ Shadow Ball
○ Shore Up
○ Earth Power
○ Giga Drain
● Passimian, Level 50. @ Sitrus Berry.
○ Iron Head
oP

○ Close Combat
○ Brutal Swing
○ Bulk Up
This is the hardest battle yet. Almost all of her Pokemon have coverage out the wazoo, and if you’re attempting it before Crawli, you
are completely beneath her levels. Passimian can hit really hard if given the chance to bulk up even once, and Vikavolt takes lives if
you let it attack. As before get a team with near perfect synergy that counters each of her mons and you might sneak out a victory.
You can also wait till the next level cap if you want to make this one easier.
Anyways, return to the help center to get $4,500, 10 Reverse Candies, 10 Max Repels, and 10 Super Potions.

If you’ve done all the help quests, your reward is access to the safari zone garden. We’ll get this to a bit, but there is one more quest
of sorts that opened up. Enter the door that the AA grunt came out of.

You’ll be entered into a 6v6 double battle, but if you can take Novae you should be able to handle this one. Grab the TM57 Charge
Beam and the Center Keys here.

That’s it for the help quests.

team. Overall this is easy money.

On your way out, you’ll see a cutscene. Anyways, we’re gonna return to the boat. Talk to Augustus, and he’ll take you to the Secret

If it is raining outside, you can find stationary Gastrodon to fight. Use your itemfinder here, there are lots of hidden items about.

To the right, you’ll see a brown book on the ground. If you gave away your Ancient Book, here’s where you can get a new one.
Otherwise, leave it here for now.

Maneuver up on the first island to where you can access the water from two points. We can’t do anything from the left yet, so surf
up from the right. Head to the right island and cut the tree, accessing the water on the north side of this island. Head up to the next,
and talk to Melia.

Surf west from here, and grab the Pretty Wing. Head up and enter the lab.
After a cutscene, head to the west. We have to do an arrow puzzle.

Room 1
● Take the left upwards arrow above Aelita
● Head up and take the rightwards arrow.
● Head down to the downwards facing arrow
● Fight a trainer with a shadow Masquerain, so catch it if you can.
● Press the panel.
● Head back right to the upwards arrow
● Go right to the rightward arrow.
● Up to the upwards arrow
● Leftwards arrow at the top, and you’ll have made it out.

Room 2
● Press the green panel
● Surf to the up right
oP

● Go up on the upwards arrow


● Take the upwards arrow in the upper left
● Press the panel here
● Enter the rightmost downward arrow
● Take the bottom left downward arrow
● Go up one tile, then right. You’ll fight a trainer with a shadow Baltoy (which we already have).
● Return to the bottom, then get back to this area. Instead, take the upward arrow to the left of the trainer.
● Leave the blue panel alone, and head up
● Press the purple panel then take the rightward arrow
● Ignore this pink panel and go down
● Press the orange panel
● Go up onto the leftward arrows onto the pink -> blue -> orange path and we’re done

After this, surf across to the right.

Room 3
● Head up in the only possible path
● Take the right facing arrow on the right side
● Head down and activate the orange panel
● Return to the area by the barrels on the right
● Head up into the Xen grunt, who has a shadow Carnivine.
● Press the green panel
● Head up and to the left on the orange panel, and fight the grunt
● Head left, and go downward arrow all the way on left
● Head left into the green arrow path
● Take the upwards green arrow
● Take the left upwards arrow that takes you to the left
oP

● Activate the pink panel and fight the grunt


● Head down and activate the blue panel. Interact with the canisters here to get the first Card Key Shard. We’ll use this in a
quest later.
● Head right, up and right, then up and right to get to TM73 Thunder Wave!
● Head back down, left, left up, and from here return to the upper left region as we’ve done before
● Instead, take the upper right upwards arrow that leads to the upper right.
● Take the rightwards arrow that takes you through the pink path and we’re out.

Heal, and we’re going to fight in the next room.

Pokemon Trainer Ren (Factory Field)


● Cacturne, Level 42. @ Focus Sash.
○ Giga Drain
○ Spikes
○ Nature Power
○ Dark Pulse
● Reuniclus, Level 42. @ Colbur Berry.
○ Recover
○ Psyshock
○ Flash Cannon
○ Signal Beam
● Scyther, Level 43. @ Muscle Band.
○ Bug Bite
○ Aerial Ace
○ Brick Break
○ Steel Wing
● Flygon, Level 43. @ Yache Berry.
oP

○ Dragon Dance
○ Earthquake
○ Steel Wing
○ Dragon Claw
● Arcanine, Level 44. @ Liechi Berry.
○ Flare Blitz
○ Wild Charge
○ Extremespeed
○ Reversal
● Greninja, Level 44. @ Expert Belt.
○ Surf
○ Shadow Sneak
○ Night Slash
○ Grass Knot
Another tough battle with Ren - his team is almost fully complete, with only Scyther left to evolve. His team, or at least the last four
members, are extremely fast, so you have to find mons that can live his attacks and dish it back. Be careful of technician Scyther
which can hit really hard, and protean Greninja as always. My whole team was collectively able to whittle his down for the win.

Afterwards, enter the hidden cave. After a cutscene, we’ll be taken back out to the entrance of the forest. Accept the fast travel to
head back to Kakori.

Now… we actually have the ability to take the boat to return to Gearen City at this point… so all of Floria Island we’ve seen so far is
now explorable with Surf. All of the following areas are optional, so if you want to continue the story, jump to the badge section.

Talk to Dragonite in Oceana Pier. He’s lost some letters, so we’re going to help pick them up for it. The first is immediately up and
left from it. The second is left behind some trees. The third is in the upper left corner between some dumpsters. Give them back to
get a Thunderstone!

Talk to the woman with the cart by the Gearen City Entrance. She’ll offer you a Link Heart for $10,000. This will evolve a trade
evolution for us, so I recommend grabbing it now.

Head over to the Connecting Bridge west of East Gearen. Now that we have the Dull Key, open the door here and use a
GourmetTreat to get Litten!

Head back to a PC and grab something with a burning fire move - Eruption, Lava Plume, Flame Burst are all good candidates. Torkoal

Enter again, and take the ladder down. We can’t yet do the strength puzzle portion but we can explore. Beat the trainers then hop
into the hole all the way at the bottom. Grab the DeepSeaScale then head through the hole. We can’t do anything in this area yet,
but we will come back. Head back up the ladder twice. Do this one more time in the leftmost hole to get DeepSeaTooth. In this path
you’ll find the Icy Rock, which you can use to get Glaceon from Eevee, though this is currently bugged. That’s all we can do for now
without strength, so head back out of the cave.
oP

Finally, enter the forest.

Evergreen Forest
Grass % Water % Headbutt: Low % Headbutt: High %

Snover 34 Seel 90 Pineco 35 Aipom 30

Cubchoo 29 Basculin 10 Burmy 25 Noctowl 25

Furfrou 2 Good Rod Butterfree 4 Crabrawler 5

Goldeen 80 Beedrill 1 Ledian 5

Corphish 20 Slakoth 5
There are also Swablu that fly around here. There is a stationary Stantler to the right in the forest, as well as Buneary which we can
use for the trade if you don’t feel like breeding.

Head up and to the right for a Dusk Ball on the mountain. In the main area, surf right at night to battle stationary Snorunt. Grab a
female one if you want to use one of the Dawn Stones we’ve been sitting on.

Head back down and go all the way up to the spring and grab the Max Repel. If you got Anju’s Pendant… like 90 pages ago, step onto
this pedestal and present it.

Enter the spring of preservation, and talk to the Piplup for a battle.
oP

That’s all we can do in the Route 11 area, so let’s return to Route 4.


===================
Lost Camp Part 2 - LCamp2
===================
By now, we’ve found all nine of the lost camp kids we can get at this point. As a reminder, here they are:

1. Teddie can be found by heading out of the Lost Camp and going south immediately after going right on Route 4.
2. Andrew can be found in Abandoned Sewers underneath Gearen City by crossing the first bridge north, then the first bridge
west, then the first bridge down in an alcove at the bottom.
3. James can be found by entering Spring of Purification from Sheridan Village. He’s on the left.
4. Marissa can be found on Wispy Path in the upper right corner of where Espurr played with you.
5. Jessibelle can be found directly east of the aquarium gym in Akuwa Town.
6. Dylan can be found on the top of the basement floor of Goldenwood Cave.
7. Matthew can be found in a tree surfing in the south side of Route 3.
8. Cybur can be found by surfing west of the bazaar on Route 3.
9. Alisha can be found by surfing in one of the middle rooms of Amethyst Cave.

Anyways, head into the Lost Camp.

Lost Camp: Matthew


Water Stone $2,100
Fire Stone $2,100
Leaf Stone $2,100

(As an aside, if you want quick AP this forms a good chain we can use. Fill up a team with Pickup mons, catch Pansage/sear/pour en
mass, racking up catching points. Catch any shinies you find as well. Then, using money you’ve gotten from Pickup items, buy stones
from Matthew and use them to evolve. This in total will clear like 5 categories you may not otherwise get done.)
oP

Donate the last $7,500 to Maman. After a cutscene, this is all we can do here for now.

We’re also gonna continue the Poliwag quest via Terajuma Island now.

Take the boat to Terajuma, then surf up in this spot to return to where we got Valarie’s badge, and get Poliwag #4. Head up to Valor
Shore and surf up for Poliwag #5.

Head up and talk to Dragonite! He’s lost all his letters again. The first is on the island immediately to the right. The second is on an
island around a loop dead south of Dragonite. The third is dead east of the second. Finally, the fourth is on Route 5 in the grass on
the left. Talk to Dragonite again to get a Shiny Stone.

If you’ve gotten enough AP and gotten all the other items so far I’ve recommended, grab the Golden Claws. It’ll be useful towards
the end of the next part, so might as well get it soon. If you have even more AP, next is the Golden Drift Board.

That’s all we can do for this massive load of quests, so head back to Crawli’s gym.

===================
Infested Badge - Badge6
===================

Enter Crawli’s gym in the ranger HQ once you have prepped your team. Talk to Holly at the entrance, then enter one of the caves
and talk to her again - and our challenge will begin.

● Push the first log on the left left


● Push the second log on the left up
● Push the third log up, and you’ll battle wild Pinsir!
oP

● Hop the center of this log, then go up and hop over the next center of the next log
● Talk to Ariados in the bottom corner, then talk to Holly at the top
● In this new room, hop over the log on the left side then talk to Ariados.
● Push the log above on the left to fight another Pinsir.
● Hop over it, then smash the rock smash rocks in the area.
● Talk to the Ariados on the right side, then push the log on the upper left side up one space
● On the right side, push the bottom log down. Push the other log to the left, then up as far as it can go.
● Follow this vertical log to the top, then push it left, then up
● Push the bottom horizontal log up again, then climb the stairs and hop across
● Push the log on this platform up
● Return to the platform, jump to the right side, then jump all the way across the platforms to the left on the logs we have now
put in place, then talk to Holly
● Head up, then hop to the left and talk to this Ariados. Up and to the right you can find:
ZCell 030: Kakori Gym
oP

● Head back all the way down, and to the right. Climb the stairs by the teleporter
● Push the log off the platform down, then use it to cross to the middle platform. Approach the tile that sticks out, and if
you’ve found all the Ariados, an event will play.
● Jump across, and enter.
● Talk to Holly, then get onto the bridge and go all the way down. Take the leap of faith!
oP

Down in the bottom floor, you’ll find a small move tutor, though it is not useful for this gym, it will be in the future.

Kakori Gym Move Tutor


Giga Drain 3 Green Shards

Talk to Aelita at the top, then head in. Flying around in here are wild Yanma, which you can catch. It can actually be useful for this
fight if you want to go train it up due to its strong AncientPower and Air Slash. Anyways, pass Crawli and head into the cave at the
top. Head left and then follow this path down to get TM106 Irritation!

Anyways, if you head outside the gym, there’s a breeder by the Pokemon Center that uses four L.45 Audino, which can be useful in
training up your Yanma or other assorted Pokemon. Once you’re ready, return to Crawli’s chamber and stand across him!

Gym Leader Crawli (Forest Field) (Also it’s...raining…)


● Ariados, Level 43. @ Telluric Seed.
○ Barbed Web
○ Stomping Tantrum
○ Poison Jab
○ Shadow Sneak
● Galvantula, Level 42. @ Wise Glasses.
○ Bug Buzz
○ Struggle Bug
○ Thunderbolt
○ Giga Drain
● Escavalier, Level 42. @ Assault Vest.
○ Slash
○ Iron Head
○ Drill Run
oP

○ Barbed Web
● Golisopod, Level 43. @ Sitrus Berry.

○ Storm Throw
○ Throat Chop
○ X-Scissor
○ Rock Slide
● Araquanid, Level 45. @ Mystic Water.
○ Liquidation
○ Aqua Ring
○ Barbed Web
○ Poison Jab
Ho boy, this is a tough battle if you’re not prepared. Crawli’s team plays in doubles and basically has everything stacked for it - a field
that boosts almost all of his Bug moves and gives Slash a grass typing, rain that nullifies fire types entirely, and a well structured
team built around speed control. Ariados will be +1 attack and immune to damage for its first turn, but you can do the same with a
Telluric Seed. After Galvantula dies, he doesn’t really have anything that is inherently speedy - so if you can find a way to get rid of or
ignore the sticky web, you’ll be able to wear him down. Rock Slide is great here - everything bar Escavalier will go down to it fairly
handily. I recommend Lycanroc with Telluric Seed if you need a bit of assistance on this fight. You could also consider Drought
Torkoal from the Safari Zone to change his rain and boost a fire team.

Once you’ve triumphed, claim the Infested Badge for up to level 50.

Head outside and talk to Melia and Valarie. That’s it for this chapter!
oP

Chapter 7: A Teila Fire and Ice

===================
Route 6 and Aquamarine Cave - R6AqC1
===================
After you’re ready, head west out of Kakori Village to Route 6. We already had access to the grass, but:

Route 6
Grass % Rock Smash % Surfing %

Krabby 40 Geodude 90 Remoraid 90

Dustox 24 Binacle 10 Krabby 9

Beautifly 14 Old Rod Goldeen 1

Weepinbell 12 Goldeen 100 Good Rod

Cascoon 5 Goldeen 80

Silcoon 5 Basculin 20
There are also wild Krabby crawling around.

Enter Aquamarine Cave and talk to Melia and Valarie. We’re gonna have to explore the cave after all! Use your itemfinder
throughout - you’ll find tons of great items, including field-effect seeds.

Aquamarine Cave
oP

Cave % Old Rod Surfing %

Psyduck 30 Goldeen 70 Spheal 65

Spheal 30 Carvanha 30 Seel 30

Sealeo 19 Good Rod Dewgong 4

Golduck 14 Spheal 60 Sealeo 1

Kingler 6 Seel 20

Corsola 1 Basculin 20
Talk to the guy below to get TM05 Roar! Enter the room to the south.

In this next big room, talk to Valarie to the left. Tell her you love water for a relationship point, and continue the conversation as you
please. Once you’ve finished, you’ll get another relationship point with her.

Surf down at where the fisherman is. You’ll see some items to the south, but we’ll need some Blast Powder to get back there.
Anyways, surf west and enter this cave. After the scene, enter this door.

Grab the Magical Seed on the beach, and go up. Surf across to talk to Saki, and you’ll have to battle 6 Sharpedo. The battle is pretty
easy though -- anything with a good SE move that’s faster will do the trick, or Giga Drain. Anyways, after the battle, surf up and talk
to Squirtle. Give it a GourmetTreat for a battle.

Surf to the left to find:


ZCell 031: Aquamarine Chamber
oP

Head back out and to the left. Heal, then exit the cave for a double battle!

Pokemon Rangers Sam and Alex (Beach Field)


● Pelipper, Level 46. @ Wacan Berry.
○ Hurricane
○ Water Pulse
oP

○ U-Turn
○ Roost
● Ampharos, Level 47. @ Shuca Berry.
○ Thunder
○ Power Gem
○ Confuse Ray

○ Superpower
○ Brutal Swing
● Machamp, Level 49. @ Coba Berry.
○ Rock Slide
○ Dynamic Punch
○ Thunderpunch
○ Bullet Punch
oP

This team together relies heavily on the presence of Pelipper’s rain - if you can switch it to sun, their strategy will suffer. A
combination of Rock Slide, Blizzard, and Discharge can take out most of their team, but honestly, their team is so slow you should be
fine here once you get some kind of strategy going.

Head west to enter Teila Resort!

===================
Teila Resort First Visit - TeilaR1
===================
Head up and grab the planted Occa Berry. Useful for a certain gym battle later. This building here is another ranger center, with a
shop:

Teila Ranger Center Store


Poke Ball $200
Great Ball $600
Potion $300
Super Potion $700
Antidote $100
Ice Heal $250
GourmetTreat $1500
Super Repel $500
Reverse Candy $50
And, if you don’t have one, you can get Spice Powder for $850 here as well.

Enter the hot springs to the north. This is where you can use the PC and heal in this area, like in FRLG.

Head back out and head towards the villa all the way in the southeast. Outside, then in the backroom, you’ll find:
oP

ZCell 032: Teila Resort

ZCell 033: Teila Resort


oP

Head around the house to the left of this one to find an Elixir. The guy inside this house will offer to trade your extra Oranguru for a
Passimian!

Head around to the house in the southwest, and behind it you’ll find a Rare Candy. In the area near the house above this you’ll find a
Hyper Potion.
oP

We can’t surf in Teila Resort, but there are some shops towards the center.

Teila Resort Left Vendor Store


Poke Ball $200
Great Ball $600
Super Potion $700
Full Heal $600
Antidote $100
Ice Heal $250
GourmetTreat $2,000
Super Repel $500
Max Repel $700
Reverse Candy $50

Teila Resort Middle Vendor Store


Berry Juice $1,000

Teila Resort Right Vendor Store


Apophyll Pancakes $3,000

You can use the pancakes to evolve Pikachu into Alolan Raichu if you wish.

Head into the building with the gym sign at the top. Talk to Tesla and Melia for a while, then head into the upper left room to find:
ZCell 034: Teila Resort
oP

If you talk to the girl in the left side near Tesla, she’ll offer your Pokemon massage packages. The cheapest is $1,500, the next is
$3,500, and the last is $6,500, which comes with 3 Fresh Waters and 3 Revives! Each sequentially increases your Pokemon’s
happiness, though if you want to get it up quickly I still recommend the friendship berries at the Lost Camp.

=====================
oP

Aquamarine Cave 2nd Visit - AqCave2


=====================

Next, we have to go find Amber, Tesla’s kid. Re-enter Aquamarine Cave and head back down to the bottom level. Head up once you
reach the large room, climbing some stairs to do so. Talk to the sleeping girl here. She’ll request we go get back a CD that Venam
stole from her so… we’re heading to Kakori Village.

Now that we’ve visited the resort, all the warp panels in the Ranger Center’s we’ve visited so far are functional, making it easier than
ever to travel around Terajuma! Enter the Teila Ranger station and take the warp panel to HQ, then visit Venam in the speaker
room. Talk to her, then head back to sleeping Amber in Aquamarine Cave.

After the cutscene, jump down the hole. After another scene, we’ll get control.

Encounters are the same here as the rest of the cave, but there are a few hidden items. We’ll be back with Rock Climb later, so head
to the west to get back to the basement floor. Interact with the slimy rock slide thing here to head back to where we’ve been. Make
your way back to Teila Resort!

=====================
Teila Resort 2nd Visit - TeilaR2
=====================
Return to the massage room to talk to the group. Then, exit and head to Tesla’s Villa. It’s the furthest up building on the left side of
the resort. Enter the living room on the right to talk to Amber and Venam, then head back out.

After a lovely cutscene, it’s time for a double battle. Head upstairs and in the door. Melia will be our partner.

Hmmmm…. Hmm… if only one of the two trainers you fight had explosion on ALL FOUR OF HER POKEMON (and one TWICE!) Yeah, if
you can bait the explosions, you’ll be fine. Unless you’re in a nuzlocke, then… nice knowing you. Anyways, this’ll be an easy one with
a full team honestly.

After the battle and the following conversation, head downstairs and talk to Tesla in the kitchen.

She’ll offer you food - choose whichever you like. If you want something sweet, you’ll get a Strawberry Cake! If you want something
relaxing, you’ll get a Rose Tea! If you want something rejuvenating, you’ll get a Herbal Tea! If you want something sour, you’ll get a
Razz Berry Tart! Afterwards, after a heartwarming scene, Tesla will give you her Yacht Keys.

….And that’s about it for wholesome. After Amber interrupts, you’ll be taken into the hallway. Follow her into her room and talk to
her. Then, attempt to exit to the southeast. Team Xen invades again!

Battle your way through the grunts. The first grunt has a Shadow Mankey, and the second has a Shadow Teddiursa.
oP

Make sure you heal before heading outside. You’ll be thrown into a double battle.

Xen Executive Madelis and Team Xen Bartz (Water Surface Field)
● Florges, Level 46. @ Pixie Plate.
○ Protect
○ Moonblast
○ Giga Drain
○ Wish
● Crobat, Level 45. @ Poison Barb.

● Cradily, Level 45.
○ Ancient Power
○ Hidden Power Water
○ Recover

● Jellicent, Level 44.
○ Energy Ball
○ Recover
○ Brine
oP

○ Shadow Ball
● Heliolisk, Level 46.
○ Thunderbolt
○ Hidden Power Water
○ Hyper Voice
○ Protect
Strangely, I recommend taking out Madelis first. Her Pokemon go down pretty easily to anything physical (Rock Slide, MVP as
always) and Cradily isn’t much of a threat. The grunt’s Heliolisk can be particularly annoying with both of its field boosted moves and
since Ground moves do nothing here, but you should be alright with a bit of planning and spread moves.

After a frankly frustrating scene, you’ll wake up in the house again. Head downstairs and into the living room on the right. Talk to
Melia, and we have a new destination. Though, there are just a few things we can do right about now that we should take care of,
including our first non-trash legendary Pokemon! (Sorry Phione) Skip to the next section after this one if you want to progress the
story.

=====================
River’s End 2nd Visit -REnd2
=====================
Return to Augustus, and from there, to Gearen City.

The Pokeball store has added wares, yet again.

Pokeball Emporium (6 Badges)


Heavy Ball $300
Moon Ball $300
Love Ball $300
Fast Ball $300
oP

Nest Ball $1,000


Net Ball $1,000
Timer Ball $1,000
Dive Ball $1,000
Friend Ball $300

If you want to buy Friend Balls go ahead, they’re not too useful though.

Take the bus to Goldenleaf. Enter Wispy Tower, and talk to Sariah. She’ll give us 3 Ethers, and start us on a quest. Return to
Goldenleaf and surf south at Route 3 to return to River’s End.

Attempt to enter the house here for a cutscene. After talking to Matthew Vasile, enter the train to the left. He wants us to do a
quest for him in the Wispy Tower ruins. He’ll also give you the Lab Key. Grab something with Flash or Dazzling Gleam and head to
Wispy Tower to enter the lab. Head down the stairs and make your way to the upper right room, where the PC and heal machine
are. Surf north and use the key.

Interact with this tablet from the back, and use your light move. Exit to the hallways room, and enter the north room. Talk to this
tablet from the back, and you’ll be engaged with a puzzle. Here is the solution:
oP

Enter the pathway to the north, and you’ll be taken back to Matthew’s lab. He needs us to retrieve a Magnet, a Pokeball, and a Up-
Grade. We’ve already found all of these things - Pokeballs can be obtained in stores, Magnet was obtained on Route 2 by showing
the painter a Zebstrika, and Up-Grade was in one of the rooms in Crawli’s HQ.
oP

Get the items in your bag, and return. The Pokemon inside will run off. Buy some balls and return to the room in the Wispy Tower
lab with the second symbol. Save and enter the grass patch to the northwest and you’ll get to battle Type:Null!

Exit, and add Null to your party. We’re also going to want to evolve it soon, so I recommend stocking up on friendship berries from
Lost Camp. Head back to River’s End and talk to Matthew at his house. Evolve it into Silvally and head back to the Forsaken
Laboratory, to the room where you caught it. He’ll give us the Poison Memory! We’ll be finding the rest as we continue in the game.

That’s all there is for this quest - so head back and board the boat bound for Kristiline Town.

=====================
Frozen Over Kristiline Town - KristT1
=====================

Head west, and Melia and Venam will head towards the Pokeball shop. The mart and center are in the upper left area.

Kristiline Town Store


Poke Ball $200
Great Ball $600
Super Potion $700
Full Heal $600
Antidote $100
Ice Heal $250
GourmetTreat $1500
Super Repel $500
Max Repel $700
Reverse Candy $50
oP

Enter the Pokeball shop in the southeast. After a scene and another bizarre lesson with Jenner, head up towards the Isle of Angels.

Cross the ice and enter the Church of Theolia. Tell them Venam IS scared for a relationship point with Melia, and that she ISN’T for
one with Venam.

=====================
Tower of Theolia - Theolia1
=====================

Similar to Blacksteeple, welcome to another of my favorite sections of Rejuvenation. Again this is more of a story based area, so it
can be fun to do it alone. Like the castle as well, we won’t be able to return after the events here are completed.

Head up, and heal and use the PC if you need. Head upstairs into the Tower of Theolia!

Tower of Theolia
Cave %

Swinub 55

Delibird 25

Spheal 19

Bergmite 1
Make sure you catch a Delibird as we won’t be returning here. Grab TM78 Frost Breath on your way up 2F. Head up, battling the
maid, and seeing the scene on the stage. Head up into this next room.

Defeat these maids, and head into the next room.


oP

After an outside portion, you’ll meet Kreiss. It’s your choice whether or not to free him. If you do, you’ll be rewarded with TM101
Rock Climb! Head out to the top after this, and follow doors through to the next cutscene. Fight the two maids.

Now, there’s a little bit of bonus story content we can get at this point. Backtrack a few rooms, and curtains will be moved so that
we can access a new path. Head up to see the scene.

Return to where we were and enter the door. Continue through the path and through the doors. After the cutscene at Teila, talk to
Cera for some advice, and heal. At the battlefield, head left to grab a Hyper Potion and the top right for a Max Revive.

You can exit if need be, but go ahead and prepare for the battle ahead!

If you managed to make it through the Novae battles, Valarie, and Crawli, this is the first battle of the game you might really suffer.
Part of the problem is just how many things are stacked against you that you have to overcome - Icy Dimensional Field, which is
difficult to change and can be changed back with a single move, the hail which chips your team down while powering up hers, her
team is exceptionally speedy, they like to set up Aurora Veil so you pretty much need to break it, and more. Trick Room if you can
find it, Drought and a way to change the field are decent ways to build yourself an advantage, or you can find a way to power
through. I ended up building a max speed Lycanroc and, paired with Instruct Oranguru, managed to take a large amount of the team
out with double Rock Slide. Find a way through all of her tough tactics and continue the scene.
oP

The scene at this point splits a lot, and depends on whether or not you saved Kreiss. If you did, it’s fairly straightforward - he’ll freeze
Angie, and you can exit into a melted Kristiline Town. Here, Kreiss will give you the Glacier Badge!

If you didn’t save him, head into 5F, and you’ll be taken onto the long staircase. Head all the way down, and Valarie will save the day.
Here you’ll get the Glacier Badge, and Kreiss will now give you TM101 Rock Climb.

The Glacier Badge lets us Rock Climb, and gives up to Level 55 Pokemon.

Regardless of your choice, you’ll be given a choice to fast travel back to Teila. We’re gonna do some stuff here in Kristiline, so I
recommend not accepting the offer.

Chapter 8: Those We Lose

=======================
Kristiline Town - KristT2
=======================
If you chose not to accept the offer, grab the TM07 Hail right here. Head back into the church. In the second room:
ZCell 035: Church of Theolia
oP

Enter the room here to get:


ZCell 036: Church of Theolia
oP

Surf down at the Isle of Angels. If you have 10 Occa Berries to trade, the fisherman here will trade you a Deepseatooth or a
Deepseascale. We already have one of each, though.

oP

A girl in the dock on the east side will trade you an Alolan Vulpix for your Alolan Sandshrew, but we don’t have one quite yet.

Cross the bridge to the south part of Kristiline. Talk to the guy in here, and we can continue the virtual badge quest.

Pryce is a fairly easy fight with the Cyndaquil route - Typhlosion and Jolteon will do most of the work. Get the seventh Virtual Badge!
Next up is Clair. Another decent fight - Gligar spread Toxic around her bulky mons and took out Ampharos, while Jolteon and
Typhlosion dealt fast and heavy damage to the team. Win for your eighth Virtual Badge! Garret will also then give you 25 AP points!

Exit, and to the left behind a tree you’ll find:

ZCell 038: Kristiline Town


oP

Enter the museum for $500, and talk to the director. He will send us on a quest to Goldenleaf Town, so we’ll take care of that as
soon as we return.

Head into the help center - it’s time for some Help Center Quests!
oP

=======================
Kristiline Help Center Requests - KristH1
=======================
We’ll be exploring some new areas with Rock Climb throughout these quests, so I recommend reading to at least check what new
areas you can explore.

Kristiline Quest 1: Lighthouse


● Talk to the ranger on the boat dock of Kristiline Town to get the Lighthouse Key.
● Take the ranger teleporter to Terajuma Shore, and surf around to the lighthouse. Enter, and go up.
● Read the note, and remember the code ends in 67.
● Head all the way north to Route 5, and enter this lighthouse.
● Read the note, and remember the code starts with 98.
● Enter Aquamarine Cave from the west, and head into the cave with the big door. Rock Climb up to get TM20 Safeguard!

● In this new area, grab the Sea Incense at the top, and the Link Heart towards the center at the bottom.
● Talk to the worker in this area, and give him Protein. If you do, he will give you Tyrogue!
● Make your way to the ladder in this area, and go up. Exit this room at the top to reach the Secluded Shore. Talk to Dylan,
then head up. Here you’ll find the sixth and final Poliwag!
● Enter this lighthouse, and go up. Read the note to learn that the Ampharos are in Terajuma Cave!
● Exit, and head up. We can explore this new bit of Route 6 if we want. Here you’ll find Kingler and Hoppip, but also:
ZCell 039: Route 6
oP

● Return to where we fought Valarie in Terajuma Jungle. Enter Terajuma Cave here, and rock climb up.
● Enter the password we found into the door.
● Beat the grunts, then the ranger will take the Ampharos back. Grab:
ZCell 040: Terajuma Cave
oP

● Completing this quest also gives us access to some stationary water Pokemon for GourmetTreats - but only at night. Head to
Terajuma Shore to get Staryu, to Route 6 to get Clamperl, and Route 5 to get Slowpoke.
● While we’re up on Route 5, Rock Climb here to get a Max Potion, and access to Jeminra Cave but without the need for Safari
Balls.
oP

● Rock Smash one of the rocks here, and use Purify in the battle. Any Pyukumuku we’ve found so far should have it. Then, exit
the cave and re-enter through the Safari Zone. Surf through the cave and exit. Chase Wimpod into the bottom left corner for
a battle!
● Return to the help center to get: $5,750, Revival Herb, and Mareep.

Kristiline Quest 5: ???


oP

● Take a teleporter to Terajuma Shore. Surf up to the left of the shoreline, towards the strange house. Talk to Jenkel, then
enter.
● Defeat the first few trainers, then grab the Data Drive.
● Head up, and you’ll have to battle 6 Inkay ranging from Level 50 to 90. Really, as long as you don’t let the 80/90 ones set up
on you with Superpower, you’ll be able to come out ahead.
● As a result, we now have access to the move relearner in Sheridan Village! This one has no cool down.
● Now that we have the Data Drive, take the teleporter to return to Ranger HQ, and go into the hallway room 2nd from the
right.
● Head up twice and interact with the upper left computer to battle Porygon!
● Return to the Kristiline Help Center to get your reward: Inkay!

=======================
Floria Island Rock Climb - FlorRC1
=======================

That’s about all we can do on Terajuma Island alone, far as sidequests are concerned. The boat actually can take us all sorts of
places, including Gearen, Akuwa, and Secret Shore. It’s a bit easier than the Xen Battleship to get to. Anyways, first, we’re going to
go to the Secret Shore. Again this is optional, so skip ahead if you want.

Head to the southwesternmost island, and rock climb. Here begins a Mudkip chase event.

1. Southwest island, requires Rock Climb/Cut.


2. Southern middle island
3. Center right island, requires Cut.
4. Small central island on the left side. To get there, head back to location #1 and surf under the two rocks above the tree line.
Requires Rock Climb again. Grab the Damp Rock while you’re over here.
5. Enter Xen Lab from its left side, then exit to the south. Surf across and to the right, and you can battle/catch Mudkip!
oP

Enter Xen Lab again, and take the teleporter here to get to the back room. Enter the cave. Surf to the right to find a hidden Link
Heart. Then, head back to use Rock Climb. Enter the cave up here to get TM81 X-Scissor! There’s also an Up-Grade in the bookshelf.

Leave the swamp, and return to Gearen Help Center. Now that we’ve found 35 Zygarde cells, Mei and Ayuda will give us the Soothe
Bell! This can cut down on the number of friendship berries we need to use from now on. Our next target is 45.

Head into the Gearen Lab and go to Jenner’s lab. Head to the left and talk to Professor Hawthorne. He wants a Dex that has seen 350
Pokemon - this is an easy goal as long as you haven’t been avoiding all the trainers and optional battles. Grab either the Elekid egg or
the Magby egg, and read Jenner’s journal if you want.

Talk to him again, and he’ll request a dex with 550 seen. I had at this point 594, so it is definitely attainable. He’ll offer you the other
pick of the Johto baby eggs.

Remember that impossible fight in the Aqua Building? Well, I was able to beat it at this point, so why not give it a shot. Not essential
to get done now, but if you can, why not.

oP

○ Calm Mind
● Alakazam, Level 85. @ Twistedspoon.
○ Psychic
○ Dazzling Gleam
○ Toxic
○ Recover
You could use the Kadabra and Abra to set up a sweeper, or, just use something that can live Alakazam’s two attacks and hit hard.
Alolan Muk, for me, survived a Gleam and took it really low with Knock Off, leaving Lycanroc to finish with Accelerock. A Shedinja
can also work - let it get paralyzed by Abra, then Alakazam can’t touch it, though Kadabra can. If you win against her, you can get
Star Shard 2 and the Amulet Coin.

I recommend taking another trip to the AP shop. If you haven’t gotten the Exp. All or the Golden Axe, Hammer, Surfboard, and
Claws, do so ASAP. On deck will be the Golden Driftboard and the Golden Gauntlet.

Head to Route 2 and enter Amethyst Cave.

Now, take the stairs to the right, then head across the first bridge on top. Rock climb here, and head in. Enter this first cave, and talk
to the robot. He’ll use a level 60 Registeel. Activate this panel, then head downstairs.

Talk to the ex-Xen Grunt in the open area. Each of these things corresponds to a panel around the cave. We already found Panel 1
when we traversed the first time, and just found Panel 2 behind Registeel.

Head clockwise around this loop, and go up the stairs. Grab this Elixir and enter the cave. We’re gonna have to fight a level 60
Regirock here. Activate Panel 3.

Return to the Xen Grunt, and head down the ladder here. Activate Panel 4 on the left and grab the Great Ball. Activate Panel 5 on
the right and grab the Blue Shard.

Head back into the main route through the cave. In the room with the inverted V shape of water, enter the upper right cave, and
rock climb to get TM01 Work Up. Then, head into the next room with all the waterfalls, and rock climb down.

Talk with April, then head right to activate Panel 6. Surf to the left, and talk to April in front of this door.
ZCell 041: Amethyst Cave
oP

With all six panels activated, head to the basement and activate the machine. The Xen guy will head up, so follow him. Grab the Rift

Talk to the Grunt, and save in front of the statue. Talk to the grunt again, and you’ll have to fight:

This is a pretty easy team to beat with a good steel or poison type. Make sure you try to take as few losses as possible as there’s a
second battle coming afterwards.

Dimensional Rift Chandelure (Cave Field -> Burning Cave Field)


● Chandelure, Level 70. @ Demon Stone.
○ Heat Wave
○ Dark Pulse
○ Dazzling Gleam
○ Power Gem
This thing has Protean, so if you can swap its time away from fire, it will activately take damage from the field. A team of six can
wear it down fairly easily, especially if any of your mons have a lot of Sp. Def.

Exit at the top and talk to Manny. He’ll give you a Shiny Stone.

At night, you’ll find:


ZCell 042: Cliffside Grave (Night ONLY)
oP

Interact with the grave at the top, and insert the Cursed Candle we got a while ago to obtain Litwick!

Return to the room with the panel in which we found the first Regi - the one on the right side. Grab the Moon Dial that is now here.
Return to the basement level to talk to April. She’ll give us the Phase Dial! Head in, and go up. You’ll have to fight a fusion of Solrock
and Lunatone! It’s pretty easy with a good super effective move, though.
oP

That’s all we can do in this area for a while.

Exit to Sheridan Village, and enter Route 3. Grab something from the PC that has Dark Pulse. A good candidate is Head back to the
Poliwag area of Phasial Cave. Now that we’ve found all six, we can catch Poliwag! Head back into Upper Phasial Cave, surf to the
right, and take the ladder down. There actually isn’t much to do here yet - we need Dark Pulse, and the ONLY way to get it right now
is Alolan Meowth at Level 55.

So, head back out and into Goldenleaf Town. Enter Narcissa’s Gym and talk to the guy at the front. Make your way all the way back
through Backstage Theatre and enter the mirror.

Enter this door at the top, then interact with the painting up here. Follow Mew out of the room, through the mirror to get the Odd
Key, and to the Lost Castle.

Here, we’re going to want to read all the books and keep track of all the numbers. Head up the stairs and talk to Dusclops, and enter
the following: 0044, 6677, 3645, 9043, 7171. Enter the next room and get ready for a series of battles. It’s a gauntlet of 3, but nearly
everything that is used is ghost, psychic, and/or dark type, so you should be able to take them out with ease with the right coverage.
Keep following the rooms to shatter the crystal ball. On your way out, grab TM61 Will-O-Wisp in the corner.

Return to town and enter the southwest house. Talk to the guy and send him to Kristiline Town. Then, enter Wispy Ruins through
the Wispy Tower area entrance. Climb the rocks and head down the ivy into Wispy Chasm.

to the 3 badge gate. Open the chest to get a Shiny Stone.

Head back up the ivy, enter the room on the right, and go back down. Grab the Poke Doll when you go down. Surf to the south to get
to the 7 badge gate. Open the chest to get a Synthetic Seed.

Exit the ruins and make your way back to Akuwa Town. Enter Evergreen Forest and climb the rocks to get an Icy Rock.

That’s all there is to do, so make your way back to Teila Resort.

=======================
Carotos Mountain 2nd Visit - Carotos2
=======================

Head into Amber’s room and talk to the crew. We have to go to the Sapphire Museum in Kristiline Town. If you retrieved the painter,
now you can choose a sculpture and get paid $10,000.

Head upstairs and read about Regice. Tell Aelita you are proud of her for relationship points and get ready for a battle.

Her team focuses on a lot of fast, hard hitting Pokemon that can U-Turn out if need be. They’re all pretty frail bar Gliscor though, so
if you have the bulk to survive hits across your team, you can take them out. Not a really noteworthy fight after Angie, to be honest.

Well, head back to Gearen and take the truck to Sheridan. Head up to Sheridan Arena and head up to the house formerly belonging
to Keta.

After talking to Texen on the right side, head into the gym area. Push both statues onto the plate and head up.

Chisel one statue, then push all four statues you have onto the plate and head up.

I’m not going to write down Texen’s team because I don’t need to.

Win and head into Carotos Mountain. Talk to Aelita at the HQ, then head down right to the elevator. Head over to fight SEC for the
last time, and catch his Shadow Slakoth.

Aelita will join us. In each of the offshoot caves, you can find notes to read about what happened to a Xen Grunt that ended up
down here. Head down the ladder in the bottom right of the second room.

After a scene, we’ll have to run around smashing gems. Do as she says, smashing the dark ones, then talk to Deborah for a fight.
Head down the ladder. Head up and into the door, then up again.

After this scene, follow Aelita into the room to the left, then climb the vines to enter the room to the right. Observe the position of
the blocks:
oP

Set the blocks in the left room into this position, then enter the door. Enter the newly revealed room and enter. You’ll have to fight a
Level 55 Kingdra, though it’s nowhere near as hard as the one from the forest.
oP

Enter this next room. Move each block such that it covers one of the reddish tiles on the map.

When finished it should look something like this.

We’re actually going to need to set up the room like the one to the right, so after you’ve finished the puzzle like so, swap Zorua and
Chimecho to mirror the space to the right.
oP

Head east and battle Esther, then take out another Kingdra. Enter the door to the right. Head down the stairs, then out the bottom.
Follow the path to get TM86 Grass Knot. Then, head back up and take note of each of statue placement - we’re going to need to
move each into that spot upstairs yet again. This one can be tough but a few pointers - the bottom of the pillars ARE passable, only
move things up and down the middle staircase, and my recommended “order” to put stuff in their final position was Omanyte ->
Pangoro -> Zorua -> Starly -> Chingling -> Darkrai -> Apple.

Head down the stairs to the west for an optional challenge.

The next room is the hardest to memorize, so I’ll write all the positions down here in shorthand: Lopunny -> Omanyte -> Apple top
to left on arc. Across from apple is Darkrai and Slugma in center. Left shinx, right starly. Down left east sea down right west sea
shellos. A note: don’t take anything down the right hallway east of slugma’s spot. This time, I fit Omanyte -> Apple -> Lopunny ->
Slugma -> West Sea Shellos -> East Sea Shellos -> Darkrai -> Starly -> Shinx. Once you win, there’s a new hole at the top. Enter it.
Touch this Zorua statue for a battle to catch Zorua!

Head back into the puzzle with 7 blocks and head up into the new hole. Deborah will mock you here, but tell her “from the start” to
progress.

We’ll end up back in Sheridan. Head down the waterfalls and talk to Aelita and Eldest to progress. Accept the fast travel, and enter
the left room. Then, instead of going into the right room, surf across to the right, and go all the way down the vines and out.
Itemfind around here to get a Moon Stone! Head into the upper right room. After the scene, head down to the door again, and it will
open. Head up to the battlefield.

Angie’s Right Hand Man Cera (Corrupted Cave)


● Groudon, Level 65. @ Sitrus Berry.
○ Earthquake
○ Rest
○ Fire Punch
oP

○ Thunder Punch
Luckily, because of the field, Groudon will get Poisoned. If you can deal just enough damage for it to get knocked out here, you’ll be
fine.

You’ll then get the Magma Stone, but be presented with a choice. As always, it is up to you what to choose, but I recommend
keeping it. The story will split here. After a cutscene, Eldest will task you with chasing Tommen (of house Baratheon!). Head out of
the Garufa ruins, then back in and talk to her again.

=====================
Valor Mountain - VMount1
=====================

If you got the magma stone, take it to the T.M. shop in Kristiline. You’ll be given TM110 Magma Drift!

Head back into the shop, and they’ll have wares:

Kristiline TM Shop

RM02 Avalanche $50,000
RM03 Zap Cannon $50,000
RM04 Metronome $25,000

RM06 Retaliate $25,000
RM07 Dynamic Punch $50,000
RM08 Vacuum Wave $25,000
RM09 Tri Attack $25,000
oP

Buy these if you’d like!

Regardless of your magma stone choice, head back to Tesla’s Villa. Head upstairs and talk to Valarie and Venam.

If you didn’t keep the magma stone, your next destination is Crawli’s Gym. Make your way to the depths, and after a conversation,
enter the door. Talk to Venam and head down the ladder. Then, head up the ladder to 1F and head down. You’ll get the Emotion
Powder.

If you did keep the magma stone, head to Valor Shore, and drift across the lava and enter. Get the Emotion Powder as you walk in.

Kyogre (Water Surface Field)


● Kyogre, Level 65. @ Damp Rock.
○ Tidal Wave
○ Ice Beam
○ Whirlpool
○ Thunderbolt
This is a bit harder than Groudon since the field helps it, rather than hurts it. If you have anything with Thunder, it hits 100% of the
time and may be the best tool you have to take it out. A Shedinja is also completely immune if you need a cheap solution.

After winning, Madelis will give you the HQ Railnet Key. Head back upstairs to 1F. Surf across to the northwest and go up the stairs.
Beat the scientist guy, and the cave will turn fiery. Drift to the left and grab:
ZCell 044: Mt. Valor 2F (Fire)

If you don’t have the ability to drift yet, we’ll get this later.

Head back downstairs and hop down the ledge. There’s a pillar to the right - interact with it to Rock Smash it twice. Then, head north
across the bridge that is now open.
oP

There is another pillar up here - rock smash it three times and head into the Blockade. After… something… Saki will give you a Revive
if you kept it, but if not, you’ll get TM110 Magma Drift! Head back to get the Zygarde Cell if you haven’t yet. Enter the blockade. Use
Rock Climb and head to the left. Feed the Tepig here 6 GourmetTreats for a battle! Head back down and click the lever to free Reina.
Head up to activate the neutral crystal.

Head down and take this ladder to 3F. In this new room, maneuver to the bottom right to get:
ZCell 045: Valor Mountain 3F (Normal)
oP

Head to the north side of the room and enter the little cave. Take the right ladder in here to activate a fire crystal, then take the
other ladder to return to the main room. Head to the southwest corner and drift up. In this new room, activate the blue crystals.
Now, all the crystals in the cave should be active.
oP

Head back to the 3F room and surf in the southeast corner to get to 4F. Exit through the cliffside. As you try to go up, regardless of
your choice, you’ll meet up with Venam. To the left, you’ll find Blast Powder and
ZCell 046: Valor Cliffside

This is a 12v6 with the help of Venam, so it really shouldn’t be that much of a problem. I took 0 damage the entire battle as Lycanroc
with field boosted Rock Slide managed to 2HKO and flinch every single one of their mons.

Head up and into the next room. In the top left, you’ll find:
ZCell 047: Valor Mountain 5F
oP

Activate the fire crystal here, then return to 4F through the cliffside. Head down, then go down the ladder to find Vulpix. Give it a

Head down this ladder and drop through the hole here. Here you’ll find:

ZCell 049: Valor Mountain 1F (Fire)


Also, talk to Heatmor with a GourmetTreat for a chance to catch it. Head all the way back up to the top and enter the summit.

Rock Smash to the right, then mine the rock. Use the blast powder we just got on it. Here, you’ll find TM59 Incinerate, as well as:
ZCell 050: Valor Summit

Head up to the summit and talk to Melia when you’re ready. The first battle:
Renegade Giratina (Volcano Top Field)
● Giratina, Level 66. @ Griseous Orb.

○ Dragon Pulse
○ Magma Drift
The Blizzard T.M. we got earlier can help us play field tag against this thing. Volcanic Top -> Mountain -> Snowy Mountain across two
blizzards, but back to Volcanic Top after it uses Magma Drift. You can also consider paralyzing and poisoning it if necessary.
Ultimately this isn’t that bad of a fight if you have a decent strategy.

Heal, and follow the action to the top. Time for a 11v11 double battle with Melia.

This is sadly an example of a great fight that gets down to the wire… and then the opponents use items. Basically this fight is all
about finding your win condition. For example, I needed to get Volcano Top -> Mountain via Blizzard so Lycanroc could use boosted
Rock Slide, while keeping Melia’s team alive in order to knock out things that survive it. Typhlosion on Zetta’s team is a nightmare - it
will not only turn the field back to Volcano, but dish out massive damage to you, and Melia’s team, which has no resistance to fire.
Gyarados will try to set up with Moxie - if you have Thunder, for some reason it is boosted on the field. I ultimately recommend
getting Jellicent out on Geara’s side somehow then wearing down Zetta’s team - once you can overcome Typhlosion and bait the Z-
Move from Dragonite, he isn’t too bad. This is a really tough fight but with clever strategizing (and overcoming their cheap item
usage) you’ll be able to win.

========================
Post-Valor Quests - PVQuest1
========================

After the cutscene, head back up the mountain and step over the shiny thing. After, well, an interesting turn of events, head back
outside.

Make your way to the bridge in Terajuma Jungle and approach Melia. Accept her fast travel for some relationship points.
oP

Talk to Crescent.

Now, the next destination is the gym battle. If you want to skip ahead then do so, but we can pick up a few Pokemon and items.
Head to Ranger HQ in Kakori. Talk to Crawli at the entrance for a Buginium-Z. We can’t use it yet, though.

Climb all the way back up Mt. Valor to the summit. Where Incinerate was, you can find an Abra! Head up to the peak and interact
with the rock all the way at the bottom around where we ‘respawned.’ Do that to get the second Card Key Shard. This will be useful
a lot later when we get the other one.

Head back to Gearen by boat. We now have exactly 45 Zygarde Cells, so go talk to Ayuda and Mei to get Macho Brace! This will help
us EV train.

The people of Akuwa Town have… FINALLY been returned to their home, so head to Akuwa Town.

The girl in the top right running in place can teach you some moves:

Akuwa Town Outdoor Move Tutor


Grass Pledge 3 Green Shards
Fire Pledge 3 Red Shards
Water Pledge 3 Blue Shards

Enter the ACDMC in the upper right. If you have found any fossils so far, you can get them revived here. So, that means you can now
get: Omanyte, Kabuto, Anorith, Lileep, Shieldon, and Cranidos.

In the house on the left side of house there are two more Move Tutors.

Akuwa Town Indoor Left Move Tutor


oP

Water Pulse 2 Blue Shards


Shock Wave 3 Yellow Shards

Akuwa Town Indoor Right Move Tutor


Snore 2 Red Shards
Bounce 2 Blue Shards

In the left house, someone will give you an Elemental Seed. In Larry Locksmith’s house to the south, a guy will give you a Nugget!
Enter the Pokemart to see a scene with Karrina. She’ll then give you a Repel.

Akuwa Town Pokemart


Ultra Ball $1,200
Luxury Ball $1,000
Hyper Potion $1,200
GourmetTreat $1,500
Repel $350
Super Repel $500
Max Repel $700
Escape Rope $550

If you’re feeling sick and tired of Great Balls, now you finally have a chance to go PLUS ULTRA. Anyways, enter the house to the right
to get 5 Quick Balls.

The Key we got from Madelis is not yet useful - we’re going to need 3 Cell Batteries, 1 Metal Powder, and 1 Regular Pokeball to make
use of it. If you get any of those things, keep them in your bag for now, but we’ll come back when they’re easy to get.
oP

We also now have Magma Drift, so there are a few places we can go. Head to Sheridan and clear one spot from your party. Enter
Carotos. Rock Smash the rock to the left and drift to the left. Grab TM36 Sludge Bomb!

Head back to the right and drift across here. Clear this maze and grab the Rare Candy as well as the Cyndaquil egg. Enter the next
room and make your way to Madelis’ palace. Head down to the corrupted cave area. In the room where we played the gem game, in
the northwest corner, drift across to get TM34 Sludge Wave.

While you’re in this area, enter the day care and breed the Alolan Sandslash we found in Mt. Valor. Once it hatches into Alolan
Sandshrew, head to Kristiline town to trade it to the girl for Alolan Vulpix!

This is all we can do for now, so when you’re ready, head back to Teila Resort and enter the dance hall.

=======================
Lyric Badge - Badge8
=======================

Concert Hall Left Shop


Hyper Potion $1,200
Super Potion $700
Burn Heal $250
GourmetTreat $2,000

Talk to Reina in here to get a Dusk Stone. Talk to the girl at the top. She’ll tell us about building hype. Do whatever you gotta do to
build the hype - talk to people, battle trainers, change the song with the guy on the right.

After building some hype, an Audino trainer will appear. She uses level 55’s, so you should be able to grind your team up if need be.
oP

Once you’ve hyped to the max, head into the battlefield.

Music Enthusiast Amber (Volcano Top Field)


● Camerupt, Level 52. @ Focus Sash.
○ Fever Pitch
○ Hidden Power Electric
○ Earthquake
○ Lava Plume
● Arcanine, Level 54. @ Assault Vest.

oP

○ Flame Charge
● Magmortar, Level 55. @ Assault Vest.
○ Focus Blast
○ Thunderbolt
○ Lava Plume
○ Fever Pitch
As a note: if you can beat with max hype, you will gain, instead of lose, a relationship point with her. Anyways, this battle isn’t super
tough. As Jan says, if you can change the field, you’ll be golden. Mountain Field, Icy Mountain, Water Surface, and Underwater can
all be useful fields you can use against her. Even if you don’t, a good Earthquake user or two with something to take out the Air
Balloons can do a number on her team.

Win to get the Lyric Badge, which lets us hit Level 60, and TM50 Overheat! Head outside and watch the cutscene.

Chapter 9: No Time Left to Lose


========================
Forest of Time - ForestT1
========================

If you want, head back to Tyluric Falls to catch Decidueye if you chose not to catch Rowlet in the meantime.

Talk to Amber outside the gym once you leave, then meet her in her room. Talk to her, then head up into the pokeball storage room.
Accept Venam’s fast travel request. Talk to her and Augustus, answering her question. Accept the fast travel again, then enter Valor

oP

You can use this crystal to head back to the present anytime you want.

After they run off we can explore Kugearen City! The teacher in the house to the right will give you a Quick Claw. In the house to the
left of the Pokemon Center, grab a Revive. In the tower south of the gym, talk to the kid on 2F and answer his quiz to get a Leaf
Stone.

but you can change back at any time. Talk to the group downstairs and play through the scene. Then, talk to Irvin and the gang in the
lab.

Head to Kugearen City afterwards. Enter the cafe in the bottom left. After the scene, head out and talk to Kanon. Well, head up, and
talk to Venam in the square. Head east.

Head into a forest a bit and you’ll have to fend off a wild Shiftry. Head up into Marble Garden and tell Venam you’ll have her back if
you want a relationship point. Enter the house and after a scene, you’ll be free to explore. Each “wing” of the house has 4 rooms,
arranged in a rectangle. Enter the upper right room of the west wing to get a Silk Scarf.

Exit to the woods. Tell Venam yes again for a relationship point, or, if you’ve said no twice, lose two points and watch her flip out.
Head back to the city and enter the house in the middle of the bottom of town. Head up.

Enter Blakeory Co. in the southwest. After the meeting, enter the forest again. Head south to follow the policeman.
oP

Once you reach the youngster in this area, head northwest to get a Revive. Then, head south for a Rare Candy. Head to the
northeast corner to eavesdrop on the conversation. Then, go to where it was and grab the shiny Apartment Key.

Head back to Kugearen and use the key on the door to the left of the Pokemart. Head down and read the book on the table. After
that, head to the right and read this book to get the Weird Diary.

Return to the mansion and get Toilet Paper! After a sad scene, exit to the south. Head back into the restaurant in Kugearen. Talk to
the bathroom door and give them the T.P. to get Black Sludge! Oh yeah.

Now, head east to Anastasia’s house. Then, enter the Marble Mansion. Head into the southeast room of the right wing. Talk to
Venam.

Talk to the second bookcase by the door to find: __x__+453=__.

Enter the northwest room of the west wing. Here in the fossil case you’ll find: __x879+__=__.

Head into the room between the wings and take the elevator up.
Enter the first room and read the green book to learn: 3 x__+__=__

So, put the math equation altogether to get the answer: 3090. Head out, and talk to the PC here to input the code. In this next
room, you’ll find Gothita! Talk to the portrait in this room to begin a puzzle.
oP

This is what it should look like when completed. Head back to talk to Venam, then exit to the red doors.

Head down, and follow the prompts. Choose whether to save the Officer, or to save Maria. Saving Maria gets us a relationship point
with… the ghost of Anathea (how does that make sense!) but saving the policeman… actually works. Either head down to untie the
officer, or up to save Maria.
oP

If you chose the officer, you can choose to refuse all of Gardevoir’s requests or not. I recommend refusing them as that will save the
officer.

Anyways, after the scene, head outside into the forest, and then to Kugearen City. Pick North or South, but watch the scene play out.
Then pick Blakeory Co. Beat the maid, and enter the new grove to return to the past for now. Phew.

========================
West Gearen City Sewers - WGSewer1
========================

After 250 pages of walkthrough, we finally have access to West Gearen City. After the scenes with Karrina and after you’ve entered
the city, head west to enter the sewers.

After a lot of talking, head down and follow the path. Hop across the gaps, grabbing the PP Up, the Hyper Potion, the Rare Candy,
and TM86 Poison Jab along the way. Make your way through to the next section and prepare for battle.

Dimensional Rift Garbodor (No Field)


● Garbodor, Level 60. @ Demon Stone
○ Sludge Wave
○ Recover
○ Drain Punch
○ Giga Drain
This thing can be real tough to take out, but with 6v1 you should be ok. Consider paralysis to ensure you’ll go first and to be able to
hit hard. Earthquake did the trick for me in the end. If you need to, a Shedinja is immune to all of it’s attacks.

Follow it up and into the Distorted Cave.


ZCell 053: Distorted Path
oP

Grab the Rift dex entry here as well. Enter the room ahead. If you picked up the weird diary, give it to Melia. Then you’ll have to
battle it again:

Dimensional Rift Garbodor (Corrupted Field)


● Garbodor, Level 55. @ Demon Stone
oP

○ Sludge Wave
○ Recover
○ Drain Punch
○ Giga Drain
This time it’s in a tougher field, but lower level. You can do it again!

After the battle, your choice will affect how this plays out. Either way, talk to Melia with Kanon and exit the cave.

League Scout Amanda (Factory Field)


● Torkoal, Level 58. @ Heat Rock.
○ Heat Wave
○ Earth Power
○ Solarbeam
○ Nasty Plot
● Victreebel, Level 57. @ Life Orb.
○ Seed Bomb

○ Flare Blitz
○ Low Kick
○ Darkest Lariat
○ U-Turn
Jesus christ. Remember her, and her last battle when we had TWO badges? Well, during the time since she’s accrued a doubles sun
team that absolutely murders. Her Victreebel starts off ready to take souls, and the rest of the team refuses to die. You’re gonna
need some serious planning to win this one. The easiest strat is changing the weather - if you can turn it to any of the other three
and kill Torkoal, it neutralizes a lot of her strategy, and also means Victreebel won’t outspeed every Pokemon you own. We have the
Hail T.M. as well as Alolan Vulpix, so you can work one of those in. Otherwise, just be careful of relying too much on special
sweepers - her bench with their Assault Vests can live a lot more than you’d expect. Anyways, beat this monster of a team and
explore the rest of the factory.

If you saved Garbodor, you can enter the door on the left. Nothing to see or do here yet, though. If you head to the west, enter this
door to find a Metal Coat. Head down the stairs to see our next tasks involve gathering 5 Electric types, and 5 Fire types. The easiest
way to do this is to breed a mon of each type and take all their babies back. However you do it, return to each person and get the
Electrizer and Magmarizer. Exit and head to the west.

Use your itemfinder south of the pool to find a Rose Incense. On your way out, though it is super tricky to spot, grab:
ZCell 054: West Gearen City
oP

Head south into the city proper. There’s a woman selling Blast Powder for $25,000. It’s ridiculous, buuuuut, buy it anyways. It will
help us grab some neat items and do a sidequest, so I recommend it.

ZCell 055: West Gearen City


oP

Use your itemfinder all around the city. Of note, you’ll find a Dusk Stone and a Float Stone! Cut the upper right tree to get TM27
Return!

Enter Gearen News HQ. In the bottom left you’ll find a Hyper Potion. Also, there’s a Level 60 Audino trainer here if you need. Grab
the Wide Lens in the upper right.
oP

Enter the door to the right of the one with the red door. A guy will trade you Protective Pads for three Absorb Bulbs. We can buy
them later, but if you’re in a hurry, you can steal them off of wild Oddish.

Enter the red door with the sign to the left and up.

WG Rare Fossil Shop


Old Amber $75,000
Cover Fossil $75,000
Plume Fossil $75,000

Take the truck guy to Akuwa Town to revive Aerodactyl, Archen, and Tirtouga!
Head outside and enter the Junction Bridge from the left.
ZCell 056: Junction Bridge
oP

That’s all we can do… except for the help quests!

========================
West Gearen City Help Quests - WGHelp1
========================
oP

Are you a bit sad? I’m a bit sad, because these are the last help quests we can do! (on Floria and Terajuma). Anyways, here they are:

West Gearen Quest 1: Generator Problems (Need to have freed Dufaux)


● Start at the power plant on the north side and talk to Gabriel. Head inside to see what’s happened.
● Carefully sneak to the left and into the generator room. Save and use F12 if you get spotted to reduce the backtracking.
● Make your way to the generator room, and watch all the events unfold. Narcissa will leave for Goldenleaf Town.
● Claim your reward: $3,500. Also, bring a Nosepass or a Magneton to the generator room and they will evolve! You can battle
the wild Raichu as well.
● In the generator room, you can find TM64 Explosion!

West Gearen Quest 2: House Sit


● Start at Saki’s house west of the power plant. Talk to Erina.
● Read the note on the table. Do 3 of the actions, then head upstairs.
● Defeat the AA Grunts.
● Do three more actions.
● Head upstairs and into Saki’s room on the right. Read the diary at the bottom
● Re-enter the house, and head up and right.
● Claim your reward: $5,500.

West Gearen Quest 3: Hidden Library 3 (Requires H.L. 1 and 2)


● Start at the park, and enter the library.
● Head all the way up and to the back. Talk to Karen, then attempt to press the pillar switch.
● Talk to Karrina outside the door, then head into the southeast room.
● Head downstairs and gram TM63 Embargo.
● Welcome to the Unown Dimension. Grab the Max Repel at the top.
Unown Dimension
oP

Grass %

Unown 55

Hoothoot 20

Pidgey 10

Noctowl 10

Pidgeotto 5
● Head inside and talk to Alice and Allen.
● Enter the forest to the east. Fight the grunts. In general, I recommend Special Attack -> Fierce Attack spam. If you lose you
can just redo, anyways.
● Grab the Carbos on the right side and the Rare Candy below the ledge. Grab the Hyper Potion up above. Return to the house,
then head back through the forest to the cave at the north side.
● Solve the tile puzzle. It’s the same Kabuto one as in HGSS.
● Head back to the two person door. Push the lever and enter. Pick left to get the Banettite and right to get the Heracronite.
Again, we can’t yet use these, but good to have.
● Return to grab $4,000 and, after all the quests, a Turtwig egg!

There are a few more quests we can do now that we’ve finished all of this. Head over to Goldenleaf Town. Talk to Spector in front of
the Giratina statue. Talk to Narcissa by the sign east of the Pokemon Center. Follow her to her house and head upstairs. Read her
journal, then head out.

Grab Zorua from the PC. Evolve it into Zoroark, then head to Sheridan to relearn Night Daze. With Zoroark in party, head to Phasial
Cave. Rock climb in the upper area to head down a level. Use Night Daze in a battle with a wild Pokemon.

Talk to Narcissa once you cross the bridge.


oP

Now, head to the Wispy Ruins via Wispy Tower area entrance. Take the right vines down, and enter the 8 badge gate to the right.
Take the Elemental Seed in the chest.

Head into the Odd House during the night to talk to Spector in the upper right room.

Next, head into Wispy Tower during the morning. Talk to Spector in here.

Head into Narcissa’s gym during daytime. Head through the backstage theatre as normal, and talk to Spector when you see him.

Finally, during the day, meet him in the gym auditorium for a battle!

Gym Leader Spector (Haunted Field)


● Froslass, Level 67. @ Focus Sash.
○ Spectral Scream
○ Frost Breath
○ Spikes
○ Thunder Wave
● Palossand, Level 66. @ Blackglasses.
○ Infestation
○ Night Shade
○ Curse
○ Shore Up
● Shedinja, Level 66. @ Focus Sash.
○ Swords Dance
○ Shadow Sneak
○ Phantom Force

○ X-Scissor
● Houndoom, Level 67. @ Magical Seed.
○ Nasty Plot
○ Flamethrower
○ Flame Charge
○ Shadow Ball
● Ninetales, Level 68. @ Leftovers
○ Protect
○ Fire Spin
○ Hex
○ Will-o-Wisp
● Banette, Level 70. @ Banettite.
○ Shadow Sneak
○ Destiny Bomb
○ Will-O-Wisp
○ Shadow Claw
I know I took us to this fight about 10 levels too early, but that’s because it is a totally winnable fight. His movesets are less than
ideal, and if you can bring a good normal type attacker and something that resists fire, for the most part, you’ve already won. Beat
him as you have been taking out singles trainers so far. You’ll then win a Dawn Stone!

We won’t be able to come back for a little while, so I recommend you farm as much AP as you can and head to the AP Shop. We
won’t be able to return here until we get the HM’s Strength and Fly. So, pick up the Golden Claws for Rock Climb, and the Golden
Gauntlet for Strength. The instant we get Fly is when we can return here, so get the Golden Wings if you’d like, but it’s not super
crucial. We’ll deal with the rest of it later!

Berry Emporium (8 Badges)


Oran Berry $200
oP

Pecha Berry $300


Sitrus Berry $750
Chesto Berry $300
Occa Berry $750

Buy a bunch of Occa Berries now for much later. We also can use that Blast Powder we got a while ago now. Head into Aquamarine
Cave and head down to the big basement. Blow up the mine rock blocking the path south to get a Water Stone. In the rock nearby
there’s a Rare Candy. Down in the corner, grab the Aquamarine Ore! Head back to Kristiline Town and enter the south west most
house. Give it to the guy for a Prism Scale!

That’s all we can do right now. Head back to Erick’s gym and head up to challenge him.

=========================
Pulse Badge - Badge9

○ Focus Blast
● Electivire, Level 60. @ Muscle Band.
○ Thunder Punch
○ Ice Punch
○ Cross Chop
○ Fire Punch
I’m not saying Amanda is harder than this fight but… it’s close. This is a really fun gym battle actually - the amount of fun stuff you
can do with the field is pretty high. Even though there’s no mountain in sight, physically, if you use Blizzard -> Earthquake here, you
can turn the field into Mountain, allowing your Rock Sliders to go crazy. Or, consider using just the Icy Field and letting Blizzard users
go off. Even without messing with the field, you can do a lot with Ground types and other electric types. For instance, my win
condition was Motor Drive Icy Field-boosted Ice Punchs from Electivire and icy Rock Slides from Lycanroc.

Win to get the Pulse Badge, up to level 65 Pokemon, and TM72 Volt Switch.
oP

There’s one thing we can do before leaving. Up on the Valor Cliffside, if you bring a guy 10 Rock types, you’ll get a Protector, which
you can use to evolve Rhydon.

Chapter 10: Stopped in Our Tracks


===================
Grand Express - GExpr1
===================
Make sure you’re ready to not come back for a chapter or so. Talk to Melia in the train station in southwest West Gearen.

Sleep for the night.

Head all the way left and talk to Krystal. Head two cars right and you’ll be able to exit onto Route 7.

===================
Route 7 - 7Route1

Been a while since we saw a fresh and new route, huh.

To the left is the level 65 Audino trainer. Nice! Consider spamming itemfinder, like, everywhere. This map alone has like 10 or 12
hidden items.

the PC manager.

Head one screen up. Cut trees to get TM107 Slash and Burn.
ZCell 057: Route 7
oP

Head up and around to the left to see the scene at the bridge. Next, head a bit south to enter Yui’s Ranch. Grab the Brightpowder
hiding behind the tree by the barn door. Enter the room to the left. Talk to Miltank. If you feed it eight Sitrus Berries, it will battle
you. Exit the barn to the right.
ZCell 058: Yui’s Ranch
oP

Head to the back of the ranch and enter the house. If you’ve finished Kristiline’s help quests, head upstairs and talk to the guy here,
and agree to help. At night, head into the barn on the upper right corner of the ranch. Talk to Ben, then head outside. You need to
CATCH each Inkay, but it should be easy enough.

That’s all we can do up here. Head west into the Honec Woods.

Explore this area. There are a fair amount of hidden items about. In the southwest corner you can get 3 Starf Berries. Head into the
map at the very top when you’re ready.

Head across the bridge at the top. Watch the scene play out here. You can also access the honey tree at the top but it only works
once a day.

We can actually enter Darchlight Caves by heading down immediately, and hopping down the pillars, but there is nothing of note in
here yet - we’re gonna have to change the caves later. While you’re in this main area, talk to any of the people here 30 times. This is
necessary for a sidequest in a bit.

Take the top exit north. Head up for a little scene with a girl.

Pay attention during this scene - it will help inform another story section we’ll have to pay attention to later.

============================
Route 8 and Azure Shore - 8RAzS1

There’s only a few places we can go without strength, so start by entering the right room on 1F. Read the book and the doll will
disappear. Next, talk to Clefairy twice in the main room, and then enter the room at the very top of 2F. Grab the Max Repel and talk
to it again.

Rock Smash the rock on the side, then follow this path up. Talk to it on the couch, then in the bed in the room to the left. Exit, and
smash the rocks to get to the south side of 3F. Talk to it, then enter the next room on the left and talk to it again. Move the
candelabra up here and enter the fireplace to get TM12 Taunt and a Gate Key.
oP

That’s all we can do here for now, so make your way back to the crossroads and head north. Surf up here to grab TM18 Rain Dance.

Head into the top right clearing first. If you’ve managed to find an Odd Keystone while mining, talked to someone in the forest 30
times, and it is nighttime, talk to the tower to battle Spiritomb.

Anyways, head out and enter the northwest clearing, then speak to Flora and Florin in the top area.

After the conversation, we’ll have control in the caves. Head east and choose which character to go with. Whichever path you’re on,
head down and in. You’ll have another choice to make in each room - this time about whether or not to expose Flora either to her,
or Florin and Erin. I’m not gonna say what the best path is here since there isn’t exactly one, but choose whatever you feel is
smartest.
oP

Head outside, and as you’re walking, the cave will change. Head upstairs and watch whatever scene you got based on your choices.
Head down the left ladder and cross the new bridge here. Interact with all the rocks to find a Dusk Stone and the 3rd Card Key Shard.

Go upstairs and go down, then across the bridge and into the cave entrance. Head down and watch the scene. Then follow your
person south and into the cave, then across the bridge.

Basically, we’re going to have to create a Darchlight mirror. Speak to your person and interact with all the reading materials to find a
solution.

Here’s the solution:


● Type in 4589758 into the password
● Grab black shard ore and put it in the furnace
● Red
● Blue
● Green
● Red
● Red
● Remove the ore from the furnace
● Blue
● Purple
● Gold
● Then, talk to the thing on the left with the small red button to make a Darchlight Mirror!

Cross the bridge to the right, and head up. Interact with the gem on the wall up above. Head into the room on the left and go up to
get TM23 Smack Down!
ZCell 061: Darchlight Caves
oP

Head right and cross the new bridge. Head all the way south and then activate the mirror. Head back left to get a Dark Material!

Head back east and cross the new bridge. Activate the gem here, then head up. From here it’s linear - activate crystals and move
forwards. Climb the elevator to exit and beat the Dugtrio mech.
oP

After you get outside, if you chose Florin or Erin, the game will play itself, and if you chose Flora, now’s your chance to expose her, or
not. Watch the events unfold, then head out of Honec Woods. Make your way back to the train and talk to Melia.

==========================
Rose Badge - Badge10
==========================

Two more things to do - the Sensu Meadow is now opened up. Grab TM114 Leech Life in the upper right corner. Make your way to
th hole towards the top of the meadow, then fall down. In the cave, grab TM97 Dark Pulse and exit by getting lulled to sleep in the
bottom right corner. Then, head back to the main map, and go to the southeast and hop down the logs. Surf up and east here to
access Darchlight Cave again. Grab the Dark Memory.

Head to crossroads, and go north. Find Flora/Florin in this area, and get ready to battle.

These battles are sorta like Angie’s, in a way. A field that is tough to change and stacks heavily against you, a default weather
condition that doesn’t play nice, and, of course, a well built doubles team from both of them. Better against Flora but still useful
against Florin, if you can change it to sunny, the field will change to Rainbow, allowing your Poison types their super-effective moves
back. I ended up using an unholy combination of Sunny Day, Tailwind, Rock Slide and some super effective moves to take out Florin,
personally. I recommend leaving Cradily alive on Florin’s team, and Ferrothorn alive on Flora’s team if you can manage it.

Win to get the Rose Badge, which lets us level to 70, and TM53 Energy Ball!

Head towards Darchlight Manor and talk to Erin. Then, head back to the train to get HM04 Strength!

Cross the bridge. You’ll observe that you can take the train between areas for $1,950. Since GDC is so large, I recommend at least
exploring all the connections by foot (or bike) before you start fast hopping, at least to learn.

oP

Also be sure to pick up TM19 Secret Power here.

Back on Main Street, there’s one more event we can do. Talk to the big blue board on the right side of the area and change the
weather to windy. This will allow us to catch Skiploom and Jumpluff here, but also, talk to the girl near the house with the T.M. on
the roof. Then, head to the east Dream District and enter the park. Battle this guy to get TM51 Steel Wing. Nice!

as well, it will be necessary for a quest in a bit.

your Roserade. We can’t get Whipped Dream yet, so take this trade.
oP

Enter the central building and talk to Rhodea, then head out. Choose whether or not you want to participate in the tournament, and
watch the rest of this scene play out.

Exit and head west. Talk to the little girl here who dropped her Casteliacone. If you want to be mean, pick it up right under her and
give it back, or, if you want to be nice, get her a fresh one. To get a fresh one, change the weather to blizzard, and the line will clear
up.

That’s all for this area for now, so head west and into the southwest gate.

==========================
Residential District 1st Visit - ResidD1

Head back to the truck guy, and he’ll give you the third SPU Parcel.

==========================

That’s about all the optional content we can do around the city for now, so talk to Rhodea in the Central Building -> Dream Complex
if you haven’t already. Next, head to the park in Dream District East and talk to Lavender.

Accept the fast travel if you want, but either way, make your way to the Dream Complex again. then head into Talon’s Penthouse on
the right.

Grab the Sharp Beak in the northwest room, and the Reverse Candy in the northeast.

Talk to the stack of notes in the northwest room, then talk to Lavender in the living room. Talk to Huey in the bottom right room,
then head out to fight Bladestar in the southwest room.

Exit, and head all the way to the Magnolia Theatre in the east side of the Shopping District. After a lot of bizarre scenes, head back to
Mika’s Cafe.

order, then head down to the lab. Head up and up again, and watch the scene here.

return to the interested buyer. Return to the museum to learn of the painting’s fate! We’ll get the thief later.
oP

Return to the Judicial District and enter the P.D. Inside, talk to the guy at the desk and give him the parcel. Head down to the lost
and found. This area allows you to catch up on any limited time items you missed, so grab those while you’re here if you wish. Head
back to the trucker. Talk to him, and he’ll open up a certain method to get a Pokemon in a bit for us.

Return to the JD one more time, this time entering Cassandra’s office in the upper right. You’ll have a choice about whether to spill
the beans to Cassandra or not about what you found. Again, this is your choice. Head out with Venam when you have a chance.

Now, the story segments should converge again.

Head to the shopping district, and talk to Venam and Madelis here. Choose a colored stone, and Venam will challenge you to a
battle!

sleep.

After a bunch of scenes play out, head north and west to the sewer area to talk to Huey. Then, return to the penthouse. After a

Head back downstairs and enter the newly accessible door. Read the notebook and head up.
ZCell 072: Darchlight Manor

Talk to the well, and pull up the doll. Talk to it to get a Light Ball. Not the greatest reward in the world, but this sidequest is

==============================
Trickery Badge - Badge11
==============================
With Nightmare Medallion in hand, enter the penthouse, and sleep in your bed.

Talk to Aelita in the first area, then head up for another scene. In this central area, grab the Apophyll Pancakes in the upper right
corner.

You gotta talk to Aelita in the northwest corner, then head through the southwest gate. Grab the Full Heal and talk to the vendors if
you like. Nothing new, so I won’t list them. Talk to the kid here if you did the ice cream quest to get a Rare Candy if you got them
new ice cream, and a Reverse Candy if you got them the one from the ground.

Head up, and pick up the Rare Candy at the top. Head to the left and watch this scene. Grab the Max Repel here and head to the left
again. Grab the Vanilla Ice Cream on the left, and the Revive at the top. Also, grab the Ether in the bottom right of the top area.

though his group of 5 will go down pretty quickly.

Head into the box, and go into the upper room. Step on the bottom right and top left switch only to solve the puzzle, then talk to

○ Shadow Ball ○ Dazzling Gleam

Time for a little lesson in Trickery. You ultimately are going to be fighting not just their team of 10 but also with the fact that Aelita’s
AI isn’t always doing the best things - such as how she won’t touch Protect and consistently goes for futile set-ups with Lucario.
Claydol’s walls are going to be really annoying - you have to get Aelita to, or use brick break, else there’s not a very easy way to
OHKO even Magenta’s sweeper team very easily. The strategy here I recommend is knocking out Claydol first then going exclusively
for Neon, as if Xatu/Bronzong are out, they’re pretty tame to fight. If you can get to just Neon with Aelita having Hawlucha/Staraptor
alive you’re in good shape, but watch out for how ridiculously bulky and strong the Musharna is. Or, you can just bring a Terrain
move and cripple their entire strategy.
oP

Head into the room on the right to pick up TM29 Psychic behind the post! Oh yeah! Then, head into the box.

When you awaken, talk to the box at the table to get the Trickery Badge! Nice.

at the bottom.

Exit at the top right, then follow the path to the next cave entrance. Follow this path to get TM35 Flamethrower! Nice.

Head back south out of the Theater.

After a brief scene, it’s time to look for some Kimono Girls! If you don’t care to, skip to the next section.

Enter the Rose Theater and enter the bottom room in the right hallway. Activate the crystal - we’re going back in.

Exit the cave you appear in onto Route 4, which has no encounters.. Follow the path down and to the right, then say “yes” for a

Once in Amberette Town, enter the right house and get the Time Gear Amulet!

Make your way south, east, and east through the woods to get to Sheridan Village.

Head north to the scene that plays out. At the top of the village, use your itemfinder to get a Meadow Plate. Head down and talk to
the group, then enter this house.

Exit, and go to Cella’s house in the upper right. After the scene, enter Vivian’s house to the left. Follow her up, then attempt to
leave. Choose “my friends” and “yes” for maximum relationship points with Aelita.

Once you get control again, enter the Heracross Woods and go all the way up. Defeat/catch this Heracross, then re-enter the village.

Talk to the group at Cella’s house, then talk to Cella outside Vivian’s house. Go upstairs and interact with the cabinet to get the
Garufa Spellbook. Head to Cella’s house then back to the spring. After a scene, prepare yourself…

This one honestly isn’t too bad, but her team does make good use of the field. Watch out for the Assault Vest pair - they can eat up
super-effective moves easily, and hit back with wide coverage. If you’ve gotten this far though this battle won’t be too much trouble.
(Just don’t let Alakazam-Mega trace Motor Drive as you hit it with Thunderpunch :))

==============================
Aevium (Alt. Future) - FutureA1
==============================
oP

After the battle, you’ll be whisked away. After a few scenes, talk to Kenneth to escape the first island. After you regain control, talk
to everyone on the island that you can. After you’re done, head back into the cave and talk to the group at the top, then to Melia on
the left side.

Next, you’ll regain control in a jail cell on the Renegade ship. After a long scene, you’ll be able to escape, for a stealth section. Use D
to save frequently and make your way through this section. Talk to the boxes at the top, and you’ll now be able to fight the grunts.
Return to your friends.

Head up to the top level. Time for a quest to kill lasers!

First, head back downstairs and enter the middle left room. Enter the bottom-right portal here. Head all the way up and right (it’s
tricky to spot!) to deactivate the Blue laser.

Back in the middle left room downstairs, take the bottom-left portal here. Head up to deactivate the Green laser.

Enter the bottom left room of the downstairs, and take the top-left portal. Head through this path to deactivate the Yellow laser.

Make your way downstairs to the top-right room, and enter the bottom-right portal. Head up past the grunt to deactivate the Red
laser.

Once you’re done, head upstairs and through the laser path. Head through this door once you’re ready, and down the ladder.

oP

Nice thing about there being only 91 Pokemon left is that Valarie has limited options on what she can use for a team. Every one of
her mons is weak to Electric and/or Ground, so if you have those moves in the absence of a field this one isn’t gonna give you much
of a challenge.

Head up to talk to Madame X. Then, talk to the group in the captain’s quarters, before exiting.

Next, we’re going back to the upstairs part of the laser puzzle. Enter the top-right door and speak with Amber.

Then, HEAL SO YOU’RE NOT DUMB LIKE ME, and return to the deck. Hop off the ship to the east. After a few scenes you’ll be one
door from entering the princess’s room.

I recommend saving the game - there are some major choices for us in the next room, so if you want to choose differently, now’s the
time.

The rest of this section is honestly going to be spoilers, so if you’re not down for that quite yet, quit reading and jump to the next
section.

The first choice is to help Melia or not. If you do, you get relationship points with her and Keta, and if not, you lose some. But also,
you only have this battle if you choose to help:
Survivor Kenneth (No Field)
● Banette, Level 73. @ Focus Sash.
○ Toxic
○ Phantom Force
○ Foul Play
○ Protect
● Muk (Alolan), Level 74. @ Shuca Berry.
○ Gunk Shot
oP

○ Crunch
○ Curse
○ Ice Punch
● Krookodile, Level 74. @ Muscle Band.
○ Earthquake
○ Crunch
○ Stone Edge
○ Hone Claws
● Weavile, Level 75. @ Life Orb.
○ Ice Punch
○ Throat Chop
○ Low Kick
○ Poison Jab
● Lapras, Level 75. @ Leftovers.
○ Ice Beam
○ Surf
○ Toxic
○ Perish Song
● Lucario, Level 75. @ Lucarionite.
○ Meteor Mash
○ Drain Punch
○ Bullet Punch
○ Swords Dance
A bit harder of a fight this time. Honestly the first five Pokemon aren’t going to be much of a threat if you can counter them but it’s
that Mega-Lucario that’s gonna ruin your team. My win con ended up ensuring Magmortar was at full health for the end of the
battle so it could BARELY take a Drain Punch. If you can beat M-Luke you can beat Kenneth here.
oP

Next is an even more major choice…

If you choose Hand it Over, well… you’re gonna get a game over. A game over that in fact will write to your save that you made that
choice should you click Try Again. If that’s what you want, go for it. But if not, better make sure you have a backup if you wanna see
how that route plays out.

The other two is just “good” and “better”, with better being Do Nothing. So, let the events of whichever path you want play out and
enjoy the scenes!

===============================
Aevium (Past) 2nd Visit Part 2 - PastA2.5
===============================
After returning to the past, head into Sheridan Village and go up. Melia will give you a choice here - for a relationship point, choose
stop her, then yeah for another.

Enter Vivian’s house, then the spring and head up. Surf to this next room and watch the rest of the scenes.

Enter the house on the south side of the village and go upstairs to meet up with Erin. Then exit the village to the south and accept
Melia’s offer of fast travel to Amberette Town.

Talk to Spacea and Tiempa, then take the crystal home.

Remember the GDC arc? Yeah, this is still the same game. Well, back in the Rose Theater, head out, then into the bottom room in
the left hallway. Before we continue from here, we’re gonna do some sidequests!

What a battle this is. It starts you off like any battle should - with a weather effect that exactly FOUR mediocre lines named Golduck,
Drampa, Altaria, and Lickilicky can prevent via Cloud Nine, but at least it will be gone afterwards. So basically, the battle starts
immediately by saying sorry, you WILL NOT be able to hit any of his Normal/Flying types with supereffective moves under most
circumstances. THEN his first mon comes in, a Skarmory that not only will give Souta free tailwind for eight turns, but will also likely
knock out, or at least decimate your lead as it has Sturdy and an insane field boosted Sky Attack. Want to counter with an Elemental
Seed of your own to even out Tailwind at the start? Enjoy the defenses drop, which the sturdy bird will certainly capitalize on. So,
clearly we’re not off to a good start. In fact, all six of his team members sport Heavenly Wing/Hurricane/Sky Attack, so you will suffer
as he wipes out your team members. But, what if you also get up a Tailwind / can outspeed? Well… good luck killing anything. The
wind will ruin whatever Rock/Ice/Electric strategies you had in mind, plus Big Pecks activations, Multiscale and the fact that Pidgeot
and Unfezant JUST WON’T DIE will make whatever you attempt harder.

So, now that I’ve written 10 lines about how brutal this fight can be, here’s a few strategies to consider. Using Smack Down/Gravity
can bring you to Mountain field, but the above Flying moves are STILL boosted, so that doesn’t help much. If you then go for Lava
Plume or Blizzard, you can take it to Volcano and Snowy Mountain, but his Dragonite can get a Weakness Policy boost and ravage
with boosted Thunder in the former and again, flying moves ravage in the latter. If you really want to go crazy with the field
changing strategy, from Mountain, use Dig to bring it to a Cave, then Blizzard to freeze it, THEN Magma Drift/Lava Plume to get to
play on a water’s surface, which can be nice for Water and Electric oriented teams. Another plausible strategy is, well, if you can’t
oP

beat him, join him! Honchkrow is probably one of the best ways to go about this, as with Moxie, you can boost and with a Tailwind
of your own, outspeed some of his team and hit incredibly hard with Sky Attack. Thunder is the only release you’ll get as far as
Electric moves go as well, so if you have something fast like Electivire with Thunder, it will get field boosted and hit at least neutral
on everything except Dragonite. There are definitely more ways to beat him than I’ve outlined here, but that’s a good starter kit that
I used bits and pieces of to get by.

Scrape by with the last ounce of your sanity to get TM62 Acrobatics! And more importantly, you’ll get the Golden Wing Badge, as
well as... Souta’s Cane. Well, that’s interesting.

After a conversation with Erin, head into the bottom room of the left hallway. After the scene, exit the building.

For this fight, Aelita is Rock Fighting, and at the end of every turn in which it was attacked, it gets a massive attack/special attack
boost. So, focus on taking it out as fast as possible. Each Golem is Dark Fighting -- meaning our best bet here if you don’t have a Fairy
move is getting Erin’s Florges out and keeping it alive as long as possible. I used Rock Slide to flinch the living Golem if possible. It’s
not impossible, but without the knowledge of what is going on and a strategy you will struggle.
oP

Once you’re back at the theater and have talked to Melia and Erin, talk to Melia to open the box.

Chapter 13: Conflicting Renunion


===============================
A Note about Where Love Lies - WLLNote
===============================
So, the end of chapter 12 content marks the recommended point in the story to go play Version -1: Where Love Lies, which is
located here:

https://www.rebornevo.com/forum/index.php?/topic/34082-version-1-where-love-lies/&page=1

Honestly though, Lucifer on the forums wrote up a fantastic guide to getting 100% in the side game, and so I wouldn’t want to waste
time by writing my own guide to it.

https://www.rebornevo.com/forum/index.php?/topic/34308-spoilers-the-completionists-guide-to-where-love-lies/

Check out WLL if you’d like, but it’s not necessarily INTEGRAL to understand the main game’s story.

...If you did play WLL and got a certain password at the end for getting the good ending however, head over to GDC’s Central
Building and talk to a receptionist to get Riolu! The password, if you forgot/just want the reward, in white text: 489234

Now onto Chapter 13 content!


===============================
Scholar District - ScholarD1
===============================
oP

Welcome to the scholar district of GDC. The city just keeps on getting bigger, doesn’t it.

Enter the student rec. center. In the left room you’ll find another game corner! While two of the vendors are the T.M. and AP
vendors from Chrisola, the one in the back right will sell Pokemon!

Scholar District Game Corner Prizes


Aron 5000 Coins
Durant 8000 Coins
Mienfoo 13500 Coins
Axew 20000 Coins

Take a quick detour if you’d like to Wispy Path, where you can show Axew to a girl in the house to get Dragon Scale!

Once you’re done at the rec. center, head into the Blakeory Anatheum. Talk to Erin at the top. Head to the east side of the library
and talk to Thomas. Then, outside the library, we’re gonna do a bit of exploring real quick first. Head west, then south, to get to the
National Park.

Back to back, you’ll find:

ZCell 080: National Park


oP

ZCell 081: National Park


oP

That’s about it for this area.

Next, we’re revisiting an OLD sidequest for a bit -- head to the Hospital of Hope, and if you’ve found all the orphan kids up to this
point, talk to Mosely at the top. Accept her request, then head to the south part of the district. Talk to her again, then, in the
hospital, talk to her again.
oP

Go down two flights and talk to the cash register. Then, head back up and go in. Fight the cop. Go upstairs, fight the cop, then make
your way down through the gauntlet of COPS! After the series of events, we won’t be able to continue, so head back to the Scholar’s
district.

Walk back to the park in the center of Scholar District, and talk to Huey again. Yet again our story will split a little bit depending on
how we handled the Darchlight saga… oh boy. Be prepared to not be able to return to GDC for a bit.

If you just watched Flora escape, head up at Route 9 to fight Bladestar. Once you win, you’ll be taken to the Voidal Chasm.

If you just watched Flora’s speech at Bladestar, talk to the group, then head back to the National Park with Kanon. Once you talk to
him and Beheeyem, you’ll be taken to the Zorrialyn Desert!

At this point, we’re basically in the same “region”, just on opposite sides. I’ll be covering everything in this guide in the order of the
group that starts at Zorrialyn Desert, but just know the same items, wild Pokemon, etc. can be accessed in both routes. For now, if
you took the Beheeyem route, if you want to join up, head as far northeast as you can to access the Voidal Chasm. We’ll need to
come here in the story anyways in a bit, so jump to the next section to explore the desert for now, then return to the chasm section
after.

===============================
Voidal Chasm 1st Visit - VoidalC1
===============================
Again, if you’re entering the chasm from the outside, you’ll be heading down, but this will cover you from the point of view of a
player who started at the bottom.

On B3F, rock climb up here, and you’ll find:


ZCell 082: Voidal Chasm
oP

Rock climb up again, and head left and down. Use your itemfinder for a Dusk Stone. Rock climb back down go to B2F.

Head straight east to grab a Razor Claw. Head up and east across the crossroad bridge to get a White Herb. In the center, cross the
northward bridge to grab a Odd Keystone. Then, head to the top left and rock climb up.
ZCell 083: Voidal Chasm
oP

In the vs. Bladestar route, you’ll meet up with Ren at the top here. Beat his Silvally, and continue. Spam your itemfinder on B2F --
you’ll find an Old Scarf down the rock climb path. Once you’re ready, exit at the northeast corner for now.

===============================
Zorrialyn Desert - ZDesert1

===============================

Again, the exploration starts in the northeast corner outside of Voidal Chasm.

Interact with Mandibuzz flying around for a battle. There are also Alolan Exeggutor in various spots in the desert.

Zorrialyn is like a big loop - I will explore it clockwise, so head to the south, then west.. Don’t head into the southern exits quite yet
though. Grab the Max Ether here. Further west, grab the Mineral Ball. We can’t do anything in Alamissa yet, so keep going west. Pick
up the Ether, then head west. Take the second set (from the east) of rock climb to pick up TM37 Sandstorm.

Head down the rocks, and to the left. At the top is an Everstone, as well as interactable Cacturne. Turn around and head up the
second (from the west) rock climb. If you want to return to the city, Beheeyem is your man.
oP

ZCell 084: Zorrialyn Desert

Halfway done!! If you’ve been keeping up with our quest, great job.

Catch the Shiny Cacturne if you’d like, then head east and down.
ZCell 085: Zorrialyn Desert
oP

Head across the bridge and grab the Hyper Potion.

This one’s a bit hard to spot:


ZCell 086: Zorrialyn Desert
oP

Heading east will lead us to another rock climb. Head all the way up and then right to get a Smooth Rock. Grab:
ZCell 087: Zorrialyn Desert
oP

Head back down then go east, and we’ll have completed the loop. Next, we’re gonna check out the map in the very southeast of the
desert.

Grab the Revive here, and the Iron at the bottom. Not much else we can do here. Don’t go west from here, nor south from the
central desert quite yet. This is the Ruined City, and you’ll literally only lose money if you try to enter. So, head all the way to the
southwest to get to the Zorrialyn Coast.

Head down, then grab the Escape Rope. Go up to the top of this area, where the cave is being blocked. To the right:
ZCell 088: Zorrialyn Coast

Finally, head to the west and cross the bridges, and watch your respective cutscene.
oP

If you’re on the Kanon + Claydol path, now’s the proper time you’re heading to the Voidal Chasm. Explore using the section above if
you’d like, but we need to go to B3F of Voidal Chasm. Now’s your fight with Ren. Beat him, then outside, talk to the crew, then make
your way to the Village.

Cross the bridges and enter the village.

===============================
Sashila Village 1st Visit - SashVil1
===============================

Head up the first set of stairs. The door to the right serves as our PC/healing site, should you need it.

Talk to the girl on the second level here, and she’ll give you some stories in exchange for some cash. Take it if you’d like, then head
up.

Regardless of path, head to the top of the village and talk to Damien and Alexandra in their room. Then, head to the inn and talk to
the innkeeper. After a brief cutscene, it’s time for a change-up!

===============================
Hospital of Ruin (1st Visit) - HospRuin1
===============================
Time for another section where we get to control a different character. Exit your room, and leave to the left. Talk to the elevator,
and head down the shaft.

Head down to talk to the computer at the bottom of the shaft, then head up. Interact with the B1 door to listen in on a conversation.
Then, head up to 1F and exit the shaft.
oP

Take this other elevator to 2F. Read all the computer files in the office.

Back down in the shaft, type 8433 in the console at the bottom.

Down here, enter the room on the left, then press the panel. Enter the room at the top and talk to Braixen. Head to the bottom-right
and follow the path.

Choose whether or not to follow Giratina, then fight the grunts. The outcome doesn’t actually matter here, but it’s winnable with
EXACTLY the right strategy and a bit of luck.

Anyways, after the battle, the scenes will finish playing out… Dark.

===============================
Sashila Village 2nd Visit - SashVil2
===============================
As soon as you regain control, let’s continue the story.

If you’re on the Bladestar kidnap route, head to talk to Alexandra at the very top of the village, and choose “I Wish for Peace” and
“Alright” to get as many relationship points as possible.

If you’re on the Kanon route, talk to Ren at the bottom of the village.

Either way, head to Alamissa Urben, located halfway east on the lower loop of the desert.

===============================
Alamissa Urben - AlaUrben1
===============================
oP

Talk to Ren at the entrance and you’ll get Sylveon, as well as the Mysterious Black Box. I RECOMMEND TRAINING THIS SYLVEON AND
GIVING IT MISTY TERRAIN, and you’ll see why in a few sections.

The path through this area is linear, with lots of battles with Bladestar grunts, so follow the path up and down ladders as you go,
watching scenes and beating baddies. Grab the Red Flute, Mosiac Mail, Poke Toy, Power Bracer along the way.

Rock Smash all the rocks that you can along the way - they’ll actually permanently be gone, leaving you shortcuts for the area.

Talk to the group up at the top, then head to the left. Grab the Prism Scale in a house here, then the Poke Toy at the bottom.

Return to the top, and enter the gallery here.

Beat the grunts with the assistance of Ren, then watch the scene…

===============================
Blakeory Atheneum Tour - BAthTour1
oP

===============================

Aww yeah, another different character section. In all honesty, while the game feels imbalanced as all of these are at the very end of
the game, it’s a nice touch, and I want to see more.

Get to know Melia’s team a bit -- you can also use T.M’s on them if you’d like, but don’t give them held items that you don’t want to
lose.

Basically, you’re gonna be fighting your way to the stairs of the library. The trainers aren’t too hard.

Talk to the computer at the top of the second column.

After you get control, talk to Erin downstairs. Then, head upstairs and talk to the Youngster for a battle.

Talk to Erin again, until it is nighttime. Once you regain control, enter the arena.

Battle Erin! Though, win or lose, the game will continue. Finish watching the wholesome scene, and proceed.

backstory.
Exit the house, and talk to the group in the southwest area of town. Then, head north to board the truck to Hiyoshi Pass.

First time we’re using Ren’s team, and heck, it’s a tough one. My only advice is to set Reuniclus up to max as soon as you can on
Raichu, as it will live one of Swampert’s attacks. Otherwise, Xurkitree WILL find a way to ruin your day. May take a few tries, but you
can do it.

So yeah, we’ll be playing as Ren, and any captures we make will go to our main character’s PC. Nice.

Head to the south-central square in town. After the scene, head to the Hiyoshi Pass again. Attempt to enter Rejuvenation Co., then
head back to the city. Talk to the woman directly above the truck, then head to Route 5.

Head west as soon as you can on Route 5 and talk to Anastasia, then enter Rejuvenation Co. by beating the guards.

In the building, head west and follow the path, beating all the trainers, including Ace!

After the sequence of events, return to Nymiera’s house. Talk to the nurse in the inn, then head to the north part of town to engage
with the maids. Head straight south. Beat the maids, then return to the inn one more time. Enter the tunnel, we’re going in. Make
your way to the back.
oP

We get control of our character again! Return to the tunnel. We’re gonna be pushing strength boulders onto the spiked platforms.
As soon as you get to the first healing star, grab the Focus Sash to the left and press the button on the pillar.

○ Dream Eater
○ Night Shade
First of all. Gardevoir is Dark Fairy, Ralts is Fairy Poison and the Kirlia are Fairy Fire, for some reason. Also, if you’ve attempted the
fight even once, you’ll be aware of their INSANE stats.

So, how do you beat this? Well… it’s a tough one. This is the type of battle that will almost definitely require you to do a lot of team
alterations… The basic issue is that YOU. WILL. NOT. GO. FIRST. without priority or speed strats, Gardevoir won’t die and will kill you
easily, and the Ralts/Kirlia will not hesitate to put you to sleep. This is why I recommend Sylveon with Misty Terrain -- disabling their
ability to put you to sleep is a good first step. Kill Gardevoir first actually -- once the lackeys can’t put you to sleep, their only option
is Night Shade. I used Hyper Voice and Gunk Shot spam to finally eliminate Gardevoir, as it chose Dark Pulse on Muk for some reason
in the Misty Terrain. Then, Earthquake with Swampert and team support was able to barely keep me alive long enough to take out
the final Kirlia.

Dimensional Rift Gardevoir Round 2 (?? Field)


● Gardevoir, Level 80. @ Darkinium-Z.
○ Lovely Kiss
○ Hyperspace Hole
○ Hyperspace Fury
○ Hex
● Ralts, Level 76. @ Wide Lens.
○ Lovely Kiss
○ Heal Pulse
○ Dream Eater
○ Nightmare
A far easier round 2, plus, ren will fight with you. Misty Terrain setting up made this fight humorously easy compared to the last.
oP

… … … Well. Once you get control back, head to Nymiera’s house once again. Push the button on the back of the bookcase!

===============================
VS. Ren, Sashila Help Quests - SVHelpQ1
===============================

Talk to the group, then again on top of the village. Head out to the coastline, and talk to Alexandra in front of the obelisk. After the
scene, we’re gonna head west across the bridge for a battle with Ren! At least we’re familliar with his team.

● Head back to the top of the village and go around the back of the first house on the right cliff. Inside, you’ll find Relic Silver.
● There’s nothing in the right house, so head to the center of the city and go down. Enter the house on the right. Grab the Relic
Copper. With Blast Powder, you can get:
ZCell 091: Ruined City
oP

● Prepare yourself, and enter the southwest house. Beat the first set of grunts, then head out to heal. The next one is tough.
● Beat the grunts in their 8v6 double battle.
● Make your choice with Damien, though convincing him gives more relationship points with him.
● Grab the Rock Memory on the way out.

This isn’t that bad of a fight, especially if you can change up the weather. I recommend something with Rain Dance to make a

● Return to the help center to get $32,500 and a Scented Lure.

===============================
Desert Caves and Crests - DCAC1
===============================

You can return to GDC now if you want, but there’s even more desert exploration and quests we can do! First, take the key we got in
the research lab to the house at the southernmost tip of Zorrialyn Coast. Attempt to enter the door, and the key will break. We’ll get
back to this later.
oP

Next, we’re gonna enter Sand Stream Cave. In Sashila, head to the top, and surf to the east (on the opposite side of the research
lab). Talk to a guy here, then exit and go north from Zorrialyn Coast.

Sand Stream Cave


Cave %

Hippopotas 50

Diggersby 30

Donphan 15

Hippowdon 5

Grab the Hyper Potion up here. There are also lots of itemfinder goodies here!

Now, exit the cave. Re-enter, and check for a stationary Hippopotas to the left. If it is not there, exit and enter again. Repeat this
until we’re good, then take a quicksand vortex to B1F. Alternatively, just wait until nighttime for guaranteed odds.

Enter the vortex in the sand pit. Grab the Revive here on B2F, then another Revive past some Rock Climbs. Grab the Full Heal and the
Moon Ball along the path.

Take the vortex to B3F, and interact with the space in the ground here, and put in the Scented Lure. Then, you’ll be able to catch
Trapinch and Vibrava!

That’s all there is to do in that cave. Next, we’re going to do some treasure hunting. Head down south of Zorrialyn Coast, and you’ll
see a cave entrance.
oP

Time to explore: Zorrialyn Labyrinth.

I’m basically gonna list the paths I took in this section that led me to all the items. Every junction is listed. You’ll need to return
multiple times.

Icicle Plate. Right Up Right and follow the path to Dread Plate. Back at the first junction following this path, Down Right Down Left
Down Left for an Insect Plate. Booted!

3: Up Left Down Left all the way (Battle included), Rock Smash left and interact with the wall and use Strength. From the junction:
Up Right all the way Down Right again ALL the way (Battle included), Down Left and in. Grab the Oricorio Crest. Exit, and go all the

1: Down Right Up, grab Toxic Plate. Down Left Down aaaaall the way, Left Up in. Get the Stantler Crest. Exit, then go Right Up Up Left
Left Left Up, grab Fist Plate. Down Right Right Up Up Left Up all the way, Left Up Right Down, grab Flame Plate. Nothing in the door
above, so Left at the junction, Up all the way, Right Down for an Iron Plate, then Up and LEFT ALL THE WAY UNTIL A DOOR. inside is a
oP

Hypno Crest. Exit this room, and go Left Left Down Right to get Earth Plate. Left Down Down Right Down Right Up, into a door. Get
Fearow Crest. I got booted here.

2: Right Down Right, then talk to the Cofagrigus. Left all the way, slight up, Left all the way. Down all the way. Grab the Carbos here,
but DON’T read the wall, or you’ll have to go fight Cofagrigus again. Left Up Right Up, and you’re on the 3rd section. Again, repeat
this section to get to B3F.

Copper. Down, Right all the way, Down for Relic Copper. Up Left Up for Spooky Plate.

This is all we can do for now in the labyrinth! We’ll be back here not too long from now.

Consider putting the Crests on one of the Pokemon, if you’d like. Each powers up an otherwise weak Pokemon, so hey, that’s neat!

That about covers the quests and available content in the Badlands, for now.

===============================
Grand Dream Tournament - GDTourn1
===============================
oP

Talk to Damien at the top of Sashila and head back to Route 9. There, you’ll get HM02 Fly! About time.

One quick quest we can do - if not, go ahead a paragraph. Head to Oblitus Town. If you’ve done the Yui’s ranch quest, enter Kelvin’s
house on the right side of town and get the PokeFlute for $45,000, though this is currently bugged on certain paths.! Then, go to
Honec Woods where Snorlax is to get it.

When you’re ready, hop on the Route 9 train headed to the Tournament Stadium. Enter the building. Talk to Erin at the desk, then to
the attendant.

Head in and into the door on the left. When you’re ready, talk to the guy at the right. We’ll be playing a 3v3 tournament of sorts.
Each battle, minus the last, will be played on a RANDOM field. So, that’s interesting. The trainers aren’t too hard to beat, but so
you’re aware of their strategies, here they are:

● Rain Team
● FEAR/Sturdy Shenanigans
● Extreme Evo-boost -> Pass -> Stored Power

You’ll then get to play as Melia for a quick second. Head into the Grand Dream Ball.

The next 3 battles are as follows:


● Standard heavy offense with a Z-move
● Residual damage/stall
● Fast and hard damage

After some scenes, you’ll get a Razz Berry Tart. Aww.

The next set of battles:


oP

● Nothing special
● Nothing special: Salazzle Edition

So, beat all eight of these fools and watch the following cutscene…

===============================
Rugged Badge - Badge13
===============================

Finally, it’s time for a gym battle…

Gym Leader Adam (Inverse Field)


● Tyranitar, Level 80. @ Magical Seed.
○ Dragon Dance
○ Earthquake
○ Crunch
○ Matrix Shot
● Aurorus, Level 78. @ Focus Sash.
○ Hyper Voice
○ Earth Power
○ Thunder Wave
○ Flash Cannon
● Crustle, Level 79. @ Custap Berry.
○ X Scissor
○ Shell Smash
○ Slash and Burn
○ Matrix Shot
oP

● Kabutops, Level 79. @ Focus Sash.


○ Matrix Shot
○ Slash and Burn
○ Waterfall
○ X Scissor
● Gigalith, Level 78. @ Assault Vest.
○ Dragon Dance
○ Earthquake
○ Crunch
○ Matrix Shot
● Aerodactyl, Level 83. @ Aerodactylite.
○ Return
○ Slash and Burn
○ Ice Fang
○ Matrix Shot
The Tyranitar is an absolute disaster on this field. Basically, it turns Normal type and all of its moves are turned to Normal type as
well, adding to their damage. That, plus its single weakness now being Ghost, and you’re gonna struggle with it. Otherwise it’s not
the hardest battle in the world, you just have to constantly be thinking in inverses. Lava Plume is a great move in this fight, for
example. I also recommend using your own Magical Seeds - it will turn even type-disadvantaged mons into super-effective titans. My
Lucario got off a +2 Normalized Vacuum Wave to one shot Aerodactyl, so keep that option on the table.

Win to get the Rugged Badge, which lets us use Dive and go up to Level 85. You’ll also get TM80 Rock Slide. Nice.

Chapter 14: Death of One, Birth of Another


===============================
Neo Gearen City + Sidequests - NeoGS1
===============================
oP

After the cutscenes play out, head back outside. Talk to the crew in the lobby, then outside. Before we board the ship, there are a
TON of sidequests that have opened on the other islands we haven’t been able to visit for a while. Skip to the next section if you
wanna just progress the story. This section is all doable in V11, so if you did this part already you can skip to the next for V12
content.

First, fly over to the AP shop in Gearen City. Purchase all the AP items you want up to this point, but I recommend grabbing the
Golden Wings and Golden Scuba Gear if you’ve been keeping up. The Golden Jetpack is useless in this episode, but if you have the
AP go for it - there’s nothing new in V12 to use it on.

Next, fly over to Secret Shore, and head to Xen Shadow HQ. Enter the back room. With the 3 Cell Batteries, 1 Metal Powder, and 1
Pokeball we were able to buy, enter this train, then interact with the machine in the lab to get Ralts! Nice.

Next, fly to Evergreen Forest, and head up. Rock Climb here, then use Strength to get to the top.and make your way to the Spring.
Here, you’ll have a chance to catch Sneasel! Make your way to the spring. Battle and catch “The Emperor” (Empoleon). Talk to Nana
in her house for a King’s Rock!

Head to North Evergreen Cave. Melt the ice again with a move like Lava Plume to get to the top. Basically, you have to push the
strength boulder into the middle hole on each floor. It’s helpful to save on each floor so you don’t have to start all the way over.
Once you’ve done it, fish at the bottom to get Feebas.

Next, fly to Akuwa Town. Restore the fossils we got in the Axis High area and you’ll get Tyrunt and Amaura. Next, enter the
Locksmith’s house. Show him our broken key. If you have 2 Light Clay and 1 Hard Stone, he’ll make us a Reforged Key! Nice. Fly back
to Sashila and attempt to enter the house on the coastline.

Fly to Kakori and enter the jungle. If you’ve picked up the T.M.’s for Hail, Sunny Day, and Rain Dance, show them to the guy in front
of the weather institute to get the Castform Crest!
oP

Head upstairs and talk to the girl. Interact with the hook downstairs and place the family portrait. Then, head around to the left and
go downstairs to get Gardevoirite.

Next, we’re heading to Lost Camp. Enter Maman’s house and go upstairs. After some scenes, you’ll get Starly.

Fly to Goldenleaf Town and enter Wispy Ruins through the statue. Head into the 4 way junction and go right, then, push the strength
boulder onto the platform. Enter, and follow the path up to the 9 badge gate. Talk to the treasure chest for a battle with Gastly!

Enter the Lost Castle, and make your way straight to the back. If you’ve opened all 9 badge gate chests, head in to get the Beheeyem
Crest!

Next, head to Wispy Tower. Head around the back via Strength to get Reaper Cloth!

Exit, and make your way to Sheridan Village. Enter Carotos via the waterfall entrance, and make your way to the second room. Cross
the bridge to the right, use Blast Powder, and use strength to get beyond.

Carotos Pokemon Seller


Cottonee 7 Green Shards
Happiny 6 Blue Shards
Joltik 6 Yellow Shards
Charmander 10 Red Shards
Furfrou 8 Yellow Shards

Buy all of them to get Fire Memory.

Head to the Amethyst Grotto. Using Strength, get TM22 Solarbeam.


oP

Make sure you have a lot of good Pokeballs -- Ultra Balls or Mineral Balls will do the trick. Fly to the Secret Shore and make your way
through the wetlands heading west as much as you can. Surf up, then land north. Go up and to the right, then save the game.
Interact with the broken machine with your 3 Key Card Shards to get a chance to catch Shadow Beldum! To purify this one, you’re
gonna need to max out your purify chamber on the PC. For help, look up purifying Shadow Lugia in XD (if you have 36 primary-
normal types, it’s the easiest way to do it)

Next, fly to Rose Theater and take the time gem back. Head to Sheridan Village, then cut down the pink sapling in front of the village.
Then, return to the present and make your way to.. Route 2?

Enter the factory in the middle of the route to get a Grass Memory as well as Research Notes. Exit through the left door and grab the
Dusk Stone.

Return to the past again, and give the guy on Route 2 some research notes so he’ll finally move out of the way. At night only, you
can get:
ZCell 092: Route 2
oP

Also, you can catch Flabebe here!

Next, fly to Kakori, and head down to the depths. Using strength in the backroom, you’ll get:
ZCell 093: Kakori Depths
oP

Next, fly to the Rose Theater, and enter Forlorned Cavern on Route 9. If you’ve done all the events of the Narcissa/Dufaux quest up
to this point, enter the first room in the main area of the cave, with the time stone. After a scene with Narcissa, accept the fast travel
to the Cliffside Grave if you’ve been already -- if not, follow the path earlier in the game to Rift Chandelure. Talk to her again, then
head to Phasial Cave.
oP

Head up and watch the scenes play out. Then, in Narcissa’s house, talk to her upstairs.

Head out, and go to the Wispy Tower. Talk to young Narcy here and go in. Enter the lab, and go down the stairs to the left, and into
the room at the top of the bottom floor. Talk to her again. Enter the western room, and surf up. After a brief scene, we’ll be done
with this segment of the quest.

Next, we’re gonna fly to West Gearen City. Head into the house with the red door on the south side of town. If you’ve beat all the
virtual gym leaders, accept the challenge to the virtual E4…

Honestly, this is the hardest challenge in the entire game. I was not able to complete it with the Cyndaquil team after 10-15
attempts… But if you ARE able to succeed, you’ll get the corresponding crest to your starter in the challenge: the Meganium Crest,
Typhlosion Crest, or Feraligatr Crest! You’ll also get 25 AP Points and your fourth department store stamp!

Head to Route 2, and talk to Kecleon. He’ll offer to sell the two crests that correspond to the starters we did NOT choose in the
virtual league. He’ll sell the Meganium Crest, Typhlosion Crest, and Feraligatr Crest for $250,000 each.

As you’ve probably noticed, East Gearen City looks brand new. Fly there!

Enter the lab and talk to Jan. Then, head outside.

oP

We have our new directive: help quests. Before that though, check out Gearen Park if you want. Catch a Level 100 Budew (or, catch
something close and Rare Candy it to 100). Then, show it to the guy at the bottom for a Grassium-Z.

ledge.
● Talk to the Conkeldurr Bridge guy in Terajuma Jungle - first left from Kakori.
● Return to Adrienn, and inquire about progress.
● Next, we’ll need to submit $68,000, 7 Tiny Mushrooms, 1 bag of Stardust, and 1 Poliwag.
● If you haven’t completed the Poliwag search quest, do so now. Feel free to submit that one if you have it, or, if its evolved,
breed it.
● I had both the mushrooms and the stardust, but if not, go grind them off of Paras/Staryu, respectively. Compoundeyes and

This one is pretty easy - one move: Earthquake.

As a note, if you head down to Oceana Pier, you can trade a Rockruff for one with Own Tempo, if you want Dusk-Lycanroc!

That’s it for the sidequests, so head back to the GDC Tournament Stadium and board the ship.
===============================
Nastasia’s Ship - NShip1
===============================
Talk to the group in the meeting room of Nastasia’s ship. Answer “fine” for a few more relationship points if you’d like, then head to
the right when you can do so. Answer with the power of teamwork for another relationship point with Aelita, then head left when
you can.

After another conversation, you can talk to Sharon for a battle against the duo. It’s optional but will get you relationship points with
Ren and Aelita. Head up the ladder and talk to Nastasia and Ren. Follow her into the room on the right, then go back downstairs.

Beat the Xen grunts, then on the couch, accept Aelita’s request for storytime. We’re now playing as her with her team for a little bit!

As soon as you get control, head over to the spot on the left side of the arena for a battle!

Pseudo Sensei Texen (Forest Field)

You’ll be using Aelita’s team, so this one can be tough. I recommend swapping out Cherrim turn one to Golem as Dodrio tends to go
for sky attack, but afterwards Hawlucha, Goodra, and Starmie have the coverage necessary to finish him off. He’s actually tough this
time around, but if you save in front of him you’ll develop a strategy in no time.
oP

Tell Aelita you want to rest for a while once you’re ready. Head outside the airship when you wake up!

First, head down and to the left.


ZCell 094: Zone Zero Outskirts
oP

Enter the zone to the north. There are some Xen Grunts selling stuff here.

Zone Zero Left Grunt


Blast Powder $2,500
oP

Zone Zero Right Grunt


Poke Ball $200
Great Ball $600
Ultra Ball $1,200
Super Repel $500
Max Repel $700
Escape Rope $550

We’ll need a few Blast Powders to progress, so buy them now. Use the PC star above to add an Electric type to your party. You’ll
need one, so catch a Helioptile out here if you don’t have one yet. Audino will heal your team if you talk to it.

Enter the building and go down to the basement. You can hop across any single-spaced gaps, so do so to get to the right side of the
map. Talk to the panel with your electric type to light it up.

ZCell 095: Abandoned Apartments


oP

After the short dialogue scene, enter the second door upstairs. Smash the rock and use the blast powder to talk to Aelita. As her,
jump the two gaps and talk to the glowing spot to get a key. As the player again, head right and up to enter the door furthest right.
Beat the goons and enter the first door upstairs.
oP

Beat the grunt then go up the ladder to talk to Aelita. As her again, parkour to the right and jump down the hole. Attempt to jump
across, but when you can’t, take your character to the second door to smash the rock. As Aelita, parkour down and to the right, then
up. Interact with the bookshelf here, then as your character battle the grunt and enter door #3. Use blast powder, then parkour to
the right twice and use the panel.

Upstairs, enter the open door and beat the grunt. You’ll then regain control of Aelita, so head back to the power room at the
bottom.

Popstar Risa Raider (No Field)


● Tuff Puff, Level 90. @Air Balloon.
○ Poison Jab
○ Thunderbolt
○ Draco Meteor
○ Flamethrower
oP

You’ll win if you just use Acrobatics on Hawlucha then Explosion with Golem, but I recommend taking the time to figure out what
‘Tuff-Puff’ really is… Either way, an easy one.

Back as your character, head to the right and exit this building. Catch a breath of fresh air outside and enter the next building to the
right. Once you enter, you’ll fall down to the abandoned depths!

Once you’re in the depths, heal with Audino, then talk to the crew and learn you can switch characters by pressing the A key. To
progress in this area, I recommend this order:
● As MC, go up and battle the grunt. Follow the path forward to the hole.
● As Ren, head right, then fly up and over the gap. Each gap is distinguished by an obvious indent in the floor. Follow this path
to the second gap, then to the third. Head over to the left to the gap you can’t cross.
● As Aelita, push the boulder into the hole, then cross the gap to the right. Follow the path to the next gap and attempt to
cross.
● As Ren, approach the gap and boost Aelita across. Then, navigate him all the way right to the stairs.
● As Aelita, head to the right, dropping the second boulder. Navigate her to the stairs to the right.
● AS MC, follow the path right, beating the grunts. Rendezvous with the crew!

Once you’ve cleared the puzzle, heal with Audino and head to the right. After a cutscene, follow the stairs up and exit the building.

In this area, smash the two rocks to the left for easier backtracking and navigation.

Head down to the bottom to find:


ZCell 096: Zone Zero
oP

Head up and to the right. In the bottom corner of this area, grab TM93 Wild Charge. At the Lux Apartments, head up and right to
grab a Rare Candy. Then, head straight down past a line of grass to grab the Zone Zero Key. This lets us get to Alamissa from here,
and vice versa.
oP

Head up, battling the grunt along the way. Loop around to the left for an Ultra Potion, then go up along the upper path to get a
Razor Claw. Once you’ve grabbed these items go all the way to the left and into the building on the top left of the area.

If you removed your electric type, readd it to your team, and enter the backroom. Go downstairs and power on the generator. (This
is the last time we will need the electric type in V12). Enter the newly opened room and read the book with Ren, then exit this
building and enter the one below it.

Enter Nymiera’s old house and go to the basement to click the lever. Save/heal and approach the top of the Zone Zero area.

This battle is a total bruh moment the first time you play it. Unless you have spread moves that are gonna be able to knock out the
bulky-as-hell Aromatisse turn one or use your own Trick Room, most likely, you get eight turns of having to deal with her slow team
going first and causing massive damage. Aromatisse will set up screens as well, meaning after Slowbro and Darmanitan wear you
down, you’ll be easy picking for Malamar and Solrock. I recommend knocking out Aromatisse and Slowbro at all costs then stalling --
once the screens and the trick room go away, you’ll have a much easier time taking out the rest of her team.

===============================
Zone Zero Pt. 2 - ZZero2
===============================
After an… unfortunate scene, head up and to the right down a little path. Catch/fight/run from Mandibuzz, then follow the path
around to the top left of the area. Talk to Ren then the cracked rock.

Head up and to the left for a battle with Skarmory, if you’d like. Follow the path instead to the right and enter the building here. Go
downstairs and read the journal, then head upstairs and exit.
oP

Once in this area, go right to the Pokemon Center area. After the scene, grab the Full Restore below. Then head into the Center and
talk to the crew.

After a few cutscenes, you’ll get to play as Melia. All you have to do is follow the path through this area, but be prepared for a
battle!

This is a 12v6 double battle with Madelis on your side, so luckily it’s not too bad at all. Madelis’ Houndoom can nearly one shot all
the pokemon that resist its Heat Wave under Torkoal’s sun, so just let that happen and use logical moves with Melia’s Pokemon and
you’ll be just fine.

What follows is a mech-battle sequence. The mechanics are complicated, but you don’t have to necessarily win this one. If you do
want to win, I recommend just using the attack she references in the text right before you attack - if she uses “hammer”, “bash”, or
“top” in her text you’ll be able to know which to use. If she says the other thing I recommend tank engine. I don’t know all the
mechanics of this fight yet but this strategy worked for me the two times I played it.

Once you regain control, head left and up out of the center, then enter the now-opened gate area.

After a scene, go left:


ZCell 097: Zone Zero
oP

Also grab the Fire Stone above. When you’re ready, enter the stairs to the right. Grab the info on Pulse: Garna… heal and get ready
for action.

If you grabbed the Weird Diary in the past, now is another chance to use it!

Dimensional Rift Hippowdon (Rift Field)


● Hippowdon (Gloria), Level 85.
○ Flamethrower
○ Sludge Wave
○ Earth Power
○ Spit Up
● Hippowdon (Manuel), Level 85.
○ Swallow
○ Sand Tomb
○ Gunk Shot
○ Smack Down
Note that each Hippowdon is also part Poison. Honestly though this one isn’t really too bad… Ren’s team puts in work by supplying
Arenite Wall and he also has a tendency to burn each of them… so using super effective moves to slowly chip away at each of them
tends to do the trick. Even when the opponent is ridiculously strong a 12v2 tends to make it too tough for them, so this one isn’t too
bad.

Afterwards, head up and out! Nothing can be done to the left at the moment, so head up to the next map. On the right by a
gravestone, you’ll find:
ZCell 098: Zone Zero
oP

Head up and to the left for one more cutscene and then enter the pyramid grounds.
===============================
Eclysia Pyramid - EPyra1
===============================
After the scene, enter the pyramid above. You’ll watch another, then on the left you’ll find:
oP

ZCell 099: Eclysia Pyramid

Enter the spring at the top and watch the scenes play out. Next, we’re going to begin the crawl to the top, so enter the room at the
right side of the lobby and head up.

We get control of Aelita and Ren again. The following is the sequence that will get us through the first section:
oP

● As Aelita, battle the goon and click the blue switch.


● As Ren, head down, then click the green switch.
● As Aelita, position yourself above the green bridge in the middle.
● As MC, head up and battle the grunt, then click the blue switch.
● As Ren, head back up and go all the way up and right.
● As Aelita, head up and stand on the red switch here.
● As Ren, pass the red bridge and beat the grunt. Wait in this area.
● As Aelita, step off the switch and position yourself down below the blue bridge.
● As Ren, step on the green switch.
● As MC, walk up past the green bridge as far as it will let you go.
● As Aelita, walk past the green switch and press the blue switch.
● As Ren, walk up and stand on the red switch.
● As Aelita, walk as far up as it will let you go.
● As Ren, head up as far as you can
● Return to control of the MC and head up for a battle!
While the battle may seem tough, they’re just slightly beefed up Magneton and Claydol. We’ll be fighting more of these throughout
the tower, but they aren’t too tough. The Claydol like to explode and use power trick to gain an abysmal defense stat, so use that to
your advantage.

Now, onto the second part of the puzzle:


● As MC, walk up and stand on the red switch.
● As Ren, head right and defeat the defense mechanism.
● As Aelita, head up and defeat the defense mechanism, then head all the way up to click the blue switch.
● As Ren, cross the first blue bridge and head all the way up to stand next to the blue switch in the upper right area. Make sure
you’re on the left side of the bridge that leads to the red switch.
● As Aelita, cross the blue bridge at the left and click the green switch.
● As MC, cross the green bridge and wait in this area.
oP

● As Ren, click the blue switch, then cross to the right and stand on the red switch.
● As Aelita, go all the way to the right, across the red and purple bridges until you can’t go further.
● As MC, head up past the red bridge and wait there.
● As Ren, head all the way to the left until you can’t go further.
● Finally, as MC go up and rendezvous!

Head up and follow the path… after another scene, it’s time for another mech battle!!!!!

Luckily this is the same deal as before, I guided Allen to victory by doing the attack the grunt mentioned in their dialogue before our
turn.

After some interesting scenes, head up to battle some goons. You’ll be tag-teamed with the other characters here -- these fights
aren’t too tough.

After… that, head up and follow the path. In general the next few rooms are straightforward progression, talking to characters as
necessary. You’ll also find this, in the room with hoverboard dude:
ZCell 100: Eclysia Pyramid
oP

Do this and emerge at the Eclysia Skyview! If you want to continue the main story, jump ahead to the next section, but we have
some sidequests to do and potentially useful Pokemon to get!

===============================
Do the Dive (Floria) - DDiveF1
===============================
oP

Now that we have the Enigmatic Key, we can do some underwater exploring. All three of the next sections are optional content, but
I recommend all of it!

Fly to the Evergreen Island first, and surf down onto Route 11. First thing we are going to do is go all the way up and right in the
route, to the large mostly-circular dive spot. Dive down in this area and interact with the submarine here. We’re going tallest to
shortest, activating the underwater pillars here.

Fly back to Evergreen Island (to save a few seconds of surfing) and surf right, then down. You’ll find a 2x2 square to go down, where
you’ll find the tallest pillar. Interact with it to activate it.

Surface, and dive down in the main area of Route 11. Head down and on the left, as you’ll find a small 2x2 square to surface. Do so
to grab TM33 Reflect! Dive back down, and at the bottom of this area you’ll see a little tunnel you can go through. Do so and surface
to nab TM16 Light Screen. Dive again, and go left after exiting the tunnel to the north. Activate this pillar here.
oP

Head straight to the right until you find another pillar. Activate it, then surface in the 2x2 square immediately to the right to get Icicle
Plate. Go back down and go up above the third pillar. Surface at this 2x2 square to grab Primarium-Z.

Head back down, then approach the tunnel / 2nd pillar area. At the bottom left, sorta hard to spot, is the fourth pillar. Activate it,
then return to the submarine. After a conversation, surface, fly back to Evergreen, then dive right here and enter the door.

Head up, beating 3 sets of defense mechanisms along the way. Once you reach the top, you’ll be gifted the Empoleon Crest. Nice.

Next up, we’re gonna fly to the Secret Shore. Make your way to the Wetlands Laboratory, and use the teleporter to get to the
backroom. Use the downward pads to go down, then dive in the water. Follow the path and surface.

Grab TM112 Smart Strike as well as Shadow Amaura! Use the teleporter to get out.

===============================
Do the Dive (Terajuma) - DDiveT2
===============================
Next we’re gonna explore some of Terajuma Island. First, fly to Teila Resort, and enter Aquamarine Cave. Make your way to the
Aquamarine Chamber. Dive down in this area. We’re going to need to activate a number of panels in this area by floating over them,
so follow this sequence:

● Step on the 1st panel immediately above the dive spot.


● Go straight down, then straight right. Activate the 2nd panel in this new area.
● Go up as much as possible, then left. In this area, go left from the up-most position such that you go up to the northmost
area. Activate the 3rd panel.
● Go left, then down on the right tile of the two. In this small gap, head down and activate the fourth panel.
oP

That’s all we can do in this main area for the time being, so dive back out at the light spot where we activated the first panel.

Next, make your way to the floor which Amber once fell through. Surf down and to the left, then dive down on any of the tiles in the
lowest row. Once back in the current maze, go directly to the right, then go left once you stop before the green rock. Go left then
down, then head to the right. Make sure you use the bottom of the two current tiles to go to the right here. Follow this path to the
left and out.

In this area, grab the Water Memory, then activate the pillar in this area. Head up and swim off the side once you’ve done this.

If you head up, you can talk to Challenger Neptune for a tough battle!

Challenger Neptune (Underwater Field)


● Raichu, Level 85. @ Life Orb.
○ Psychic
○ Focus Blast
○ Surf
○ Discharge
● Samurott, Level 84. @ Elemental Seed.
○ Dive
○ Megahorn
○ Sacred Sword

○ Anchor Shot
○ Power Whip
○ Whirlpool
oP

○ Earthquake
● Cradily, Level 85. @ Leftovers.
○ Curse
○ Earthquake
○ Toxic
○ Recover
This one is really tough at first as she uses the Underwater Field aspect well. One idea is to use your own water types as soon as
Raichu and Dhelmise go down, as they can take advantage of the field to hit Whiscash super-effectively and fight back against
Samurott and Blastoise. The water surface field also was a bit easier to deal with in my experience - if you use Dive or can bait
Whiscash/Samurott to use it, it can make the fight easier. Plus, you can use Blizzard to turn the surface into Icy if you so choose. A
tough fight but lots of ways to turn the odds in your favor.

Win against Neptune to get the third Star Shard, Popplio, and the fifth Department Store Stamp!

Make your way all the way to the right, and head down into the dark area. Grab the Blastoisinite at the bottom, then go slightly to
the left and up and surface at this spot. Once on Route 6, head to the right, and dive down in the dive spot here. Follow this path
around and enter the now-opened tower.

Read the lore on the green-tinted bookshelves if you want, then grab the Zangoose Crest and the Ariados Crest. Exit and resurface.

Next, fly to Kakori Village and enter Valor Mountain. Use the blue crystal and make your way to the Valor Chamber at the bottom.
Dive down when you can here, then follow the path to the left and grab Waterium-Z. Take JUST ONE set of currents to the left, then
go up and to the right. Activate this fifth panel (along with the four we found earlier), prepare for battle, and head up through the
now-opened door.

Temple Kingdra (Underwater Field)


● Seaking, Level 84. @ Elemental Seed.

○ Waterfall
○ Megahorn
○ Whirlpool
○ Soak
● Dragalge, Level 85. @ White Herb.

○ Head Smash
○ Waterfall
○ Earthquake
○ Icicle Spear
● Kingdra, Level 86. @ Scope Lens.
○ Dive
○ Iron Head
oP

○ Focus Energy
○ Outrage
Another tough underwater field battle, but similar to the Neptune battle, utilizing field-change moves like Dive -> Blizzard may be
the key to victory here. Just like in Marco Polo, getting these fish out of the water can be effective! Alternatively, again your own
water type can be quite effective in this field. Just be careful of Kingdra’s consistent critical hits!

Once you’ve won, head up to catch a Horsea! Exit in the same spot of the maze as we entered the first time.

Last place to dive on this island is at the first place we entered - so fly to the shore. Surf to the northeast corner and dive. It’s time to
explore the S.S. Oceania once again…

Grab the Water Stone to the left when you enter. In the hallways, enter the leftmost room in the second row and use the passage to
the right to get Sharpedonite! Exit this door and go to the left, out onto the deck. By going down and to the right, you can loop
around the ship, so re-enter on the right. In the ballroom, grab the 5 Dive Balls, then go to the basement for another Water Stone.
Follow the path upstairs up and around, exiting on the right side of the circular room. Grab the 5 Luxury Balls.

Next, head all the way to the top. Here, you’ll have a chance to battle and catch Mareanie! Exit the ship the same way we came in.

Dragon Pulse 1 Big Mushroom

Rightmost-Middle Move Tutor


Liquidation 2 Big Mushrooms
Drill Run 3 Big Mushrooms
Stomping Tantrum 3 Big Mushrooms
Gunk Shot 4 Big Mushrooms

In the top right area of the town, grab 3 Pecha Berries, 2 Lum Berries, 3 Starf Berries, 2 Enigma Berries, and 2 Aspear Berries.

Enter the castle at the top, then talk to Goomelda in her room. Exit the castle afterwards, then talk to Goomink in the upper left
house of the village. At the top of the village, fight and beat Goomink, then fly over to East Gearen after he leaves.

Enter Venam’s gym, and head to the back. Fight Aya with Goomink. Shock Wave tends to work.
oP

After winning, head outside the gym, then fly to Kakori Village. Head down to Crawli’s arena and talk to Goomink here. Beat Crawli
here. Counter tends to work.

Fight Goomy once you’re outside the gym again. Fly to Sashila, then the Zorrialyn Coast to the south. Heal Goomy, then after the
conversation head to the water in the village. Talk to the guy to add a raft stop to the village, then talk to Goomink to embark.

Tormented Leviathan Kawopundunga (Underwater Field)


● Kawopundunga Wailord, Level 100. @ Flyinium Z.

● Wailmer, Level 60. @ Lum Berry.

○ Soak
○ Astonish
○ Helping Hand
This is also a very tough battle at first look. The Wailord is a special form that has… 800 base HP… as well as the ability Water Veil,
which will always be activated on this field. After knocking out the Wailmers, changing the field or Wailord’s ability is the best way to
go, as you can use Toxic and watch it slowly faint. Alternatively, you can PP stall, as only its Dive and sorta Z-Bounce can hit really
hard, so with something bearing Water Absorb, you’ll likely make it out of this one just fine.
oP

Back on land, you’ll have to face a team AA grunt as the Hero Goomink. It’s not too hard, luckily. Afterwards, fly back to the Kingdom
of Goomidra. Make your way to the castle, and battle the grunts as you go up. After the events at the top of the tower, head back to
the throne room, and talk to the king. You’ll get Swampertite and Infernape Crest!

Head down the hallway to the right, into the ruins room. The first fight you do you will likely lose against Big Betty, but the second
you can win by using Swords Dance -> Thousand Arrows.

After these events, reenter the ruins room. While here, grab TM08 Bulk Up.

V12’s gym challenge does not disappoint! A powerful team with defensive tanks and a sweeper to ruin your day, coupled with a
natural weather condition and a boosting field to match. Claydol’s crest significantly boosts its special attack, while Torterra’s swaps
its resistances and its weaknesses.

First I changed the weather - it won’t go back to sandstorm once you do. I used regenerator Tangrowth as a crux for this fight, using
Giga Drain and switching in and out of the battle. You can set up on Nidoqueen with something that resists its types - for instance,
Volcarona can get off a few Quiver Dances here. Torterra is weak to Special Rock and Ground moves especially, so ironically Ground
oP

moves are super effective against 4 out of 6 of his team members. Make sure you leave something bulky/fast enough to take out
Excadrill once you get rid of his bulk, however. With the right strategy, you can take down Flora’s hijinx.

After the battle, heal up at the Xen ship, because there’s more…

Head back to the top, then go up when you hear a sound at the skyview. After a few cutscenes, you’ll enter a battle! Try to win this
one if you’d like.

After a few more cutscenes, you’ll be in control of Adam and Delpha for another battle!

Funny thing is, Adam’s team is SIGNIFICANTLY buffed by this field as well, so Dig will work absolute wonders on basically her whole
team. That, plus spread moves like Blizzard and Rock Slide plus the fact that Hail/Sandstorm work better for Adam than for ???, you
won’t have too tough of a time with this one.

That’s it for this bit, go ahead and approach the spring when you can. You’ll get the Pyramid Point Badge and TM105 Arenite Wall!
After a few more scenes, you’ll be given a choice to teleport. Say yes if you wanna continue the story, but otherwise we can fit in a
few quests while we’re on this island.

● Steelix, Level 85. @ Assault Vest.
○ Iron Tail
○ Earthquake
○ Strength
○ Smack Down
● Ledian, Level 87. @ Ledian Crest.
oP

○ Mach Punch
○ Ice Punch
○ Thunderpunch
○ Power-Up-Punch
These madlads actually did it - made Ledian half decent. It’s punching moves hit 4-5 times, so… it’s gonna get up to max attack real
quick. Venus has a tough team, though almost entirely because of the team’s synergy with the field. Almost all of Tauros, Ledian,
Luxray, and Steelix’s moves can be boosted by the field, and since most of them have the affected abilities, that means they’re going
to hit real hard basically every time. Plus Azumarill’s 100% accurate Sing, and you’re in for a tricky fight.

Minus Decidueye and Azumarill, her team is speedy, so a Trick Room strategy could be attempted; alternatively, changing the field
to basically anything else will shut the team down for the most part. Revelation/Petal/Fiery Dance are all boosted under this field, so
a team using these that targets their low special attack on this field could succeed. Dragon/Swords/Quiver Dance also boost stats
even more, so a sweeper might see success here if they can get the opportunity to set up.

Succeed to nab the fourth Star Shard, as well as the Ledian Crest, and the sixth Department Store Stamp!

Exit the building and go straight to the right. Enter the tall apartment building with the key.

Once you enter, we’re going to be doing a puzzle similar to RSE’s Abandoned Ship backrooms. Feel free to solve this yourself, but the
route is as follows:
● Enter the bottom left room, 1A. Interact with the upper right sparkle in this room, the one that is in the second tile from the
right in the upper right corner, to grab a key.
● Exit, and enter the top right room, 1F. Interact with the upper left tile of the table to grab the next key.
● Exit and enter the top middle room, 1E. Study these sparkles, then head left and enter 1D. In the rightmost tile of the bed in
this room you’ll find another key!
● Exit, and go upstairs and enter the top right room, 2F. Study the sparkles, then go into 2E. In the bottom tile of the bed in the
2F side you’ll find the next key.
oP

● Exit and loop around to the bottom right door, 2C. Go around and exit through the 2B door.
● After falling, enter the bottom middle door, 1B. Grab the key two tiles above the rightmost rock.
● Using the door to the left to get back to the main area, head out of 1A and go upstairs to the upper left room, 2D. Grab the
key in the single sparkle, as well as:
ZCell 102: Lux Apartments
oP

● Reenter 2C, then go out the 2B door. Use the key on 1C in the bottom right door, then enter the ladder. Click the lever in this
area!

Now if you head up in Zone Zero to the next map, you’ll find that a gate has opened, leading you to be able to catch Gible! Keep it
unevolved for now, there is a small quest we can do in a bit with it. Also:

Karen and Karrina Quest - KKQ1
===============================
Next, fly to Alamissa Urben and go straight up. Take the unconscious Karen back to the village, then agree to go to the labyrinth
again.

With that out of the way, head to the Zorrialyn Labyrinth. Make your way to the bottom floor just as we did before. Follow the
southmost path to the east, until you reach a sign. Talk to the sign, and while it is bugged at the moment, show a Water type to it.
Then, head north and west to reach the dive spot.

Note that in this area we can catch Relicanth, Clamperl, Luvdisc. We’re gonna do three more runs to explore this area of the ruins
and snag all the items. Do so as follows:
Floor 1: Show strength
First you exit the starting room
Tak a left

1: Down Left Up to get Relic Silver. Go straight down and grab Mind Plate. Head Up West Up and in this area is Calcium. Enter the
door and get the Skuntank Crest. From here, exit the alcove and go Right Down for a Heart Scale, then Left Down as far as you can,
then Right Down. In this big room, grab the Heart Scale and the Relic Silver. Exit the room and go Up Right Up Right to get Blue
Shard. Then, I was booted.

2: Down Right, in this big room grab Splash Plate, then enter the door at the top to get Relicanth Crest. From here, exit, then go
Down and through the hallway. First Left, and grab Pixie Plate here. Take the bottom right exit, and grab the Full Restore. Then, go
south into this big room, picking up the PP Up, Dread Plate, and Water Stone. This is all the items we can collect, so I was booted
shortly after.
oP

3: To progress, knock out 4 Luvdisc in the map. There’s one in the southwest corner, one in the southeast corner, one in the big
room on the east side, and one in the northeast room. After, head to the middle south part of the map, and go in. Get the Zap Plate.
Then, use dive in the sandy spot here. Attempt to grab the item ball, and win the fight against the team. Get the Cofagrigus Crest!

Afterwards, head to the top of this map and enter the door on top with the incantation. Head up and agree to help Karen, then fight
the AA grunt. Exit out the right door, then fight the AA grunt here. Press this switch and exit through the teleporter. Now, follow the
stairs on the left up.

Interact with the purple-ish bookshelf on the left and follow the path. Grab the Eviolite in the library, then the Claydol Crest outside!
Go back through and enter the door down in the area with the stairs.

Immediately go left and go down the stairs here. Follow this path to a door to grab the Spiritomb Crest. Then head back to the open
area and head all the way to the right, to grab the Darmanitan Crest in the door here.

Cross the bridge near the AA grunt. Go straight up and follow this path all the way through until the top of the castle. After a scene,
start heading down the castle. After two sets of stairs, you’ll notice a cave has opened at the top, so head in to catch Larvesta!

Head back out, but when you reach a fork, head left and go up the stairs here to get onto the area where Karen and Karrina are
fighting.

Gang Leader Karrina (Holy Field)


● Musharna, Level 84. @ Amplified Rock.
○ Gravity
○ Dazzling Gleam
○ Psyshock
○ Hypnosis
● Granbull, Level 84. @ Babiri Berry.
oP

○ Play Rough
○ Dynamic Punch
○ Fire Punch
○ Earthquake
● Nidoking, Level 85. @ Expert Belt.
○ Blizzard
○ Fire Blast
○ Earth Power
○ Superpower
● Durant, Level 85. @ Rockium-Z.
○ Iron Head
○ Stone Edge
○ X-Scissor
○ Return
● Alakazam, Level 85. @ Life Orb.
○ Dazzling Gleam
○ Gravity
○ Psyshock
○ Zap Cannon
● Fearow, Level 86. @ Fearow Crest.
○ Facade
○ Drill Peck
○ Drill Run
○ Return
If you let Alakazam or Fearow come out while the rest of your surviving team is too slow/weak to take them out, you’re gonna be
hurting a lot in this one. Luckily for me, Musharna was Quiver Dance set up fodder for Volcarona, then the rest of the team goes
down just fine with whatever your strong mons are at this point in the game.
oP

Afterwards, you’ll get a choice. If you choose the first, you’ll get no karma loss, and you will get Life Orb in a bit. If you choose the
second, you’ll lose karma, but get the second mega stone from the Hidden Library way back when.

If you chose the second option, at the top, make a second choice. If you choose No, you’ll then get the Banettite or the Heracronite.
If you choose Yes, then the stone will be shining on the ground as you make your way through the tower.

Either way, head back to where you fought Karrina, and head to the right. Go up to grab the Torterra Crest! Exit the castle now.

If you chose the first option, fly to Alamissa Urben and enter a door all the way on the left, accessed via the top left side of the area.
Grab the Life Orb! You can also read the journal if you’d like.

In either case, with all the crests that we found in the crypt, fly to Sashila and talk to the left merchant for some lore, and a Dusknoir
Crest!
===============================
Ana Quest, Continued - AnaQX1
===============================
If you’ve completed all the steps to the Ana questline so far, fly to Route 9. Head south from the Rose Theater, and you’ll notice that
Route 10 is now open. We can’t do anything there yet except catch the overhead Wingull and Pelipper!

Go all the way down, then enter GDC through the Scholar District. Make your way to the Blakeory Anatheum. Go to the top floor and
talk to Ana.

After the scene, go up to Route 9 and talk to her. She’s in the lower portion of the route. After a battle (win or lose is fine), agree to
go to Dylan’s apartment. At Pokestar Studios, head up, then talk to Ana on the right. Follow her to the left again, let the scenes play
out, then at Dylan’s place again, exit and go down and right to enter the Sewers.
oP

Battle through a gauntlet of trainers to proceed. At the docks, talk to the pair to end up in Kristiline Town.

After a conversation in his house, follow Ana to the Sapphire Museum. Talk to her, then follow her to the Lava Cookie house above.
After that conversation, go back to Dylan’s and talk to her there. Talk to her once more in front of the Pokemon Center.

Use the boat to get to Teila Resort, go straight through Aquamarine Cave, then dive down on Route 6. Resurface at the north area,
and enter Aquamarine Cave from the top. (While it’s SORTA bugged, walk down past Dylan to trigger the cutsene here). You’ll get 5
Lava Cookies!

Back in Kristiline, you’ll get offered to go to Teila Resort. Head there, and talk to Ana in the middle. Gather intel from the
townspeople then talk to her again. We don’t NEED to win the challenge, but if you’d like to, choose these options from her
questions: first, fourth, second. Then talk to Gigiorno in the middle to get it started.

Back in Kristiline again, enter the house. That’s all we can do in this quest for now!

...While we’re on Terajuma, fly to Kakori Village. Enter the bottom-right house and present the Magic Wand to get Fennekin!
===============================
Hospital of Ruin (2nd Visit) - HospRuin2
===============================
Time to continue the story! Fly to Yui’s Ranch, then enter GDC and make your way to the penthouse. After a quick scene, talk to
Delpha and agree to go.

Enter Isha’s backroom prepared for battle.

Doctor Isha (Factory Field)


● Weezing, Level 85. @ Black Sludge.
○ Sludge Bomb
oP

○ Toxic Spikes
○ Haze
○ Flamethrower
● Vanillue, Level 84. @ Babiri Berry.
○ Flash Cannon
○ Hidden Power Fire
○ Blizzard
○ Freeze Dry
● Quagsire, Level 84. @ Rindo Berry.
○ Earthquake
○ Haze
○ Slack Off
○ Waterfall
● Magnezone, Level 85. @ Synthetic Seed.
○ Discharge
○ Flash Cannon
○ Hidden Power Ice
○ Signal Beam
● Dusknoir, Level 86. @ Dusknoir Crest.
○ Shadow Punch
○ Shadow Sneak
○ Earthquake
○ Thunderpunch
● Exeggutor, Level 85. @ Amplified Rock.
○ Trick Room
○ Dragon Pulse
○ Flamethrower
oP

○ Giga Drain
● Giratina, Level 90. @ Griseous Orb. [ONLY IF YOU DID NOT SAVE IT, REPLACES EXEGGUTOR]
○ Outrage
○ Aura Sphere
○ Shadow Ball
○ Earthquake
All in all a fairly easy fight to be honest, only Magnezone and Dusknoir (and Giratina in the harder route) really have any synergy
with Factory/Dark Factory, so the other mons tend to be easy set up fodder after Quagsire goes down. Make sure you have a mon or
two that can survive Dusknoir’s Technician + Field boosted Shadow Sneak, however. Isha also likes using Full Restores annoyingly, so
be wary of that.

After the rest of the cutscenes play out… we did it! End of the episode’s main content! Thanks for sticking with me this far yet again.
===============================
Narcissa’s Quest (Final) - NarcQF1
===============================
As usual, we still have a couple of quests that only open up after the main content is completed… If you’ve been keeping up with
Narcissa’s quest up to this point, fly over to Goldenleaf Town and enter her house. Enter the back room on the second floor. Accept
the request to fast travel to West Gearen and talk to the scientist.

Follow the Rotom into the cave, then take the time crystal to the past. Interact with the safe here. Then, pull the lever in the top left
corner, hiding in boxes. Go down the ladder and out. Unlock the gate, and head in. Talk to her at the top, then the box.

After a scene, talk to Narcissa and agree to go. Enter the manor and head upstairs. Go through the back, then go upstairs again.
Make your way to the room at the bottom with the fireplace. After a scene, enter the fireplace, then talk to the safe after another
scene for a Fairy Memory. Exit to the well in the backyard.

Grab the Rift Notes for Code: Rembrence…


oP

Dimensional Rift Dufaux (Bewitched Field)


● Froslass (Dufaux Form), Level 90. @ Magical Seed.
○ Hex
○ Thunder Wave
○ Ice Beam
○ Fleur Cannon
● Rotom (Fan), Level 85. @ Wiki Berry.
○ Sky Drop
○ Clear Smog
○ Thunder Wave
○ Hex
● Rotom (Heat), Level 85. @ Charti Berry.
○ Hex
○ Mystical Fire
○ Will-O-Wisp
○ Discharge
● Rotom (Cut), Level 85. @ Zap Plate.
○ Poison Gas
○ Hex
○ Forest’s Curse
○ Aromatherapy
This is a double battle with Narcissa. As usual I recommend spending all your energy taking out the lackey’s first, as their abundant
status effects will power up Hex and serve as annoyances all around. Once the lawn mower is down feel free to use Toxic on
Froslass, as it will work to whittle it down. Particularly, Narcissa’s Bellossom and Dusclops are very effective at whittling it down with
Leech Seed/Protect and Pain Split respectively, so once you take out the Rotoms, just work together with her to stall it out.
oP

After a scene in Goldenleaf, you’ll be free to head to the Lost Castle. All the way at the top, you’ll get a chance to battle Rotom!

Fly to West Gearen, and go talk to Gabriel at the West Gearen power plant. Follow him left then up then up again to get access to a
room where you can change Rotom’s form! You’ll also get the seventh Department Store Stamp!
===============================
Department Store and Deino - DSDeino1
===============================
There are just a few things we can still do in this version, so I’ll cover them here. We’ve gotten a ton of stamps in this episodes
content, so it’s time to go on a shopping spree! Add Gible to your party and fly to Yui’s Ranch, enter GDC, then go to the shopping
district and in to the store.

On 7F, show the lady at the bottom your Gible and she’ll gift you the Dark Core.

Exit the department store and fly over to Kristiline Town. Head up to the Isle of Angels, and place the Dark Core on the pillar on the
island to encounter Deino. Sweet!

There’s just one more thing we can do… If you’ve noticed, we’ve collected a lot of Zygarde Cells. Return to Gearen City to talk to
Ayuda.

Fly to Sashila, and make your way to the end of Sand Stream Cave the same way as we did earlier in the game. Once you have, in the
back room, grab:
ZCore 1: Sand Stream Cave
oP

Fly back to Gearen and talk to Ayuda to get Zygarde 10%! It’s not even particularly better than the Gible we got earlier, but hey
another legendary!

Complete the Dex (Sorta) - PDex1
===============================
oP

While you wait for the next episode, if you’d like, we can fill our dex as much as possible. Note that I assume everything in bold
above has been obtained already, but obviously if there’s a final stage that’s exclusively 1% and you’d prefer to evolve for it, that’s
fine. I will only be listing everything here that you HAVE to evolve/breed in V12.

The best place to post up for battles is the Audino grinder in Hiyoshi City in the past. Lead with a Ghost/Fighting and go nuts.
Friendship berries are available at Maman’s Camp. As for item evolutions - you can get Link Hearts at the fish tank in Axis University,
and everything else is available somewhere above, or, held by wild Pokemon.
