Pokemon Emerald Full Walkthrough

Section I- Stone Badge

Okay, turn on the game and choose to do a “New Game”, assuming this is your
first playthrough, or you’re starting a replay. If you have your own file
started, WRONG SECTION.

Anyhow, you’ll get the basic introduction from the Hoenn Pokémon professor,
Professor Birch, about Pokémon and your goal in this game – to get the eight
Hoenn League Badges, beat the Elite Four, and obtain “all” 386 Pokémon (not
counting glitches, as of Black/White, it is actually 649).

You soon get to choose your gender, which will determine your rival. I will
reference to this person as “your rival” or something similar. Choose your
name and let your adventure begin…

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Littleroot Town
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

You shall begin in the back of the moving van – obviously, are you the new
kid in town. Of course, we aren’t going to end up on some freakish journey like
Final Fantasy Tactics: Advance.

Anyhow, once the truck stops, move to the right and outside. You’ll find your
mother outside. She will take you into your new house to set the clock given to
you. This clock is one of the newer features (in series placement), for the
general part. It can determine many things, including Pokémon encounters and
Berry growth. Of course, it is much harder to manipulate the clock in this
game like you can in Generations IV and V, so just set it accurately. While you
are up here, examine the PC in the corner and withdraw the free Potion.

Once you do, go downstairs and leave to go visit your neighbors. Your rival’s
mother will greet you when you come inside their home. Head upstairs to find
your rival. In short, your rival states their goal to fill the Pokédex and
become a great Trainer. They will leave soon after you speak with them. Follow
suit.

Outside, try heading north and out of town.

First up – about the above table. On the upper “half” (above the === divider),
you’ll find the potential wild Pokémon encounters for the location. You will
learn of the species, the Pokémon’s type, and the rarity of it, ranging from
common to one-time. This table is meant to accommodate level ranges once I
learn of them, as well any precise encounter rates. The lower “half” lists the
non-special Trainers of the route, usually in the approximate order of the
encounters, but only their Pokémon. Each Trainer takes up one line unless
noted otherwise.

Anyhow…

You’ll find Professor Birch on Route 101, being chased around by a (Lv. 2)
Poochyena. >_>;

Anyhow, you are to examine Birch’s bag to select your starter…

Anyhow, you are to examine Birch’s bag to select your starter…

~~ Treecko is of the Grass type. It evolves at Lv. 16 to Grovyle, and at Lv. 36
to Sceptile, both of which are of the Grass type. They are weak to Fire,
Ice, Bug, Poison, and Flying. They have advantages over Rock, Water, and
Ground. It will be at an advantage in the first and eighth Gyms, while being
in trouble come the fourth and sixth Gyms. Treecko is therefore okay for the
average player, because this Pokémon will sweep through the Gyms early on,
but begins to weaken a little come halfway through the journey.

~~ Torchic is of the Fire type. It evolves at Lv. 16 to Combusken, and again at
Lv. 36 to Blaziken, the latter two of which are of the Fire/Fighting type.
Torchic is weak to Water, Ground, and Rock, with advantages over Grass, Ice,
Bug, and Steel. Its evolutions are additionally weak to Psychic and Flying,
with a nulled weakness to Rock; and additional advnatages over Rock and
Normal. Torchic will be advantageous in none of the Gyms; Combusken and
Blaziken will have advantages in the first and fifth Gyms. Torchic will
have trouble in the first and eighth Gyms; the other two may have trouble
in the sixth and eighth Gyms. Torchic is going to be one of those that are
good for veteran players, due to the challenge this Pokémon brings early on.

~~ Mudkip is of the Water type. It evolves at Lv. 16 to Marshtomp, and again at
Lv. 36 to Swampert. The latter two are Water/Ground types. Mudkip is weak to
Grass and Electric, with advantages over Fire, Rock, and Ground. The others
are weak to Grass (4x) only; immune to Elecrtic; and are advantageous over
Fire, Rock, Ground, Electric, and Steel. Mudkip will have an advantage in
the first and fourth Gyms; the others will be good for the first, third, and
fourth Gyms. Mudkip will have trouble in the third Gym; the others will have
trouble in none of the Gyms. Mudkip henceforth is a great Pokémon for a
beginner, because of its lack of weaknesses and lack of inability to work
well in Hoenn Gyms. However, rival battles will be extremely tough on this
Pokémon about 1/3 of the way through, due to evolutions.

Okay, once you have selected your starter Pokémon, you may begin your first
battle.

After winning, you end up in Prof. Birch’s lab, back in Littleroot.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Littleroot Town
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Once you arrive, Professor Birch will explain a few things to you. Soon
thereafter, he’ll let you keep the starter Pokémon used against the Poochyena
(it wouldn’t be a starter if you couldn’t keep it, would it?). He’ll finally
also tell you that you should find and fight his son/daughter, your rival, on
Route 103.

‘Kay, leave the lab and exit Littleroot to the north.

Now is when you actually begin to encounter wild Pokémon. How does one do
this? Simply by walking into the bushy grass. Unlike Black/White, the grass
will not differ in itself, so just walk in for some battling.

Hm. Nothing much here. That’s fairly typical of early Routes in the games.
Nothing much to mention, except that you’ll want to begin leveling up your
starter Pokémon by fighting some battles.

Anyhow, continue north to Oldale Town.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Head on over to the red-roofed building, the Pokémon Center. The Pokémon Center
is where you can fully heal your Pokémon, and even learn if they have Pokérus,
for free; you simply need to talk to the nurse at the desk. On the east side of
the ground floor, you’ll also find a PC, which you can use to store Pokémon you
don’t need and to store items. Upstairs is the multiplayer center, which I
think cannot be used right now, but you can later trade and battle Pokémon with
others.

Exit when done and you can find the blue-roofed building. This one is the
PokéMart. Here, you can buy items. For now, buy two or three Potions. You won’t
need the status items until later.

Next, head into the southeastern house and speak with the man there to obtain a
free Potion. Be sure to heal your Pokémon at the Pokémon Center.

You cannot exit west onto Route 102, so head north to Route 103.

(NOTE: The Trainers above are unavailable until you can use the Surf HM out of
battles.)

Now would be a good time to start leveling your Pokémon up. You’ll want to have
it be, optimally, Level 7 before heading north.

When you finish leveling, head back to Oldale and heal if you need to. Return
to Route 103, and continue north, through the grass, to find your rival. Speak
to him/her and, after a quick conversation, you get your first Trainer battle.

| damage against your opponent’s starter. So stick with the Normal move. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After you win, your rival will speak shortly and leave. Follow suit – go south
back into Oldale Town.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center and head to the south. Your rival will be near
the Route-Town border, telling you of the ledges you can jump over to quickly
head back to Littleroot. Continue south to Route 101.

Jump over the ledges and continue south to Littleroot Town.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Littleroot Town
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Once you come back to town, head over to Professor Birch’s lab. Birch and your
rival will be there, with the former being ecstatic over the fact that you
beat the latter. O_o

Some more talking, you’ll get the Pokédex. This magnificent item can document
all 386 species of Pokémon in the world (minus Sinnoh and Unova – with them, it
is 649). Whenever you catch or otherwise get to own a Pokémon, its data, such
as weight and description, are added to the Pokédex, even after you get rid of
said Pokémon. Pokémon you’ve only seen in the wild or from other Trainers are
added, but only let you see the sprite and the locations it is found in.

Anyhow, soon after getting the Pokédex, your rival will come up to you and hand
over five Poké Balls. Pokéballs (this is the generic term) are these items in
which you hold and store Pokémon. They are commonly bought at PokéMarts and
come in many varieties.

Anyhow, leave and go north to Route 101.

So, we’re here. With five Poké Balls. Hint hint.

If you don’t know how to catch a Pokémon, let’s explain. First, you will NEED
to encounter it in the wild – if it is from a Trainer, it won’t work (unless
you are hacking). In the battle, begin by simply damaging the Pokémon until you
think another hit will KO the Pokémon. At that point, normally you’d want to
give the Pokémon a status (a skill you likely don’t have) that doesn’t deal
damage (Paralysis and Sleep). Throw the Pokéball and there you go.

On this Route, you’ll probably want to catch a Zigzagoon and a Poochyena. The
former is due to the ability Pickup; the latter is for actually raising along
with your starter. You don’t HAVE to do this – I managed my second playthrough
on my starter, Treecko – but it may be worth considering.

Anyhow, continue north to Oldale Town.

Head on over to the Pokémon Center and heal up. Drop off any undesired Pokémon.
Head on over to the PokéMart next and stock up on some Poké Balls – about a
dozen will suit you for a good time.

Head north to Route 103 to catch a Wingull, if you want.

When you’re ready, exit to the west onto Route 102.

Further info on Trainers’ Pokémon: each individual line represents a single
battle unless otherwise noted. Any (x#) denotes that there are (#) Pokémon of
that same species and level in the Trainer’s team – it is not necessarily
applicable to moveset, stats, etc.

Anyhow, the Route is fairly linear. Head west, fighting Trainers, to the grass.
Head north for another Trainer or two through the grass.

Further north, you’ll find some Berry trees. Much like G/S/C, D/P/Pt, and
HG/SS, these trees hold Berries. These Berries can have varying effects. For
example, the Pecha Berries here heal Poisoning, and the Oran Berries, also
here, heal 10 HP. There are many more varieties – I think there were 50-ish.
Additionally, in the loamy soil where the trees were, you can plant more Berry
trees – however, it will take time. Not necessarily effort, just time. You
will probably want this to become a habit – planting one of each Berry picked
so it can grow for harvesting next time you come through the Route.

Anywho, continue west to find a ledge. Go south to find a Potion. Return north
onto the main Route, then west into Petalburg City.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Head on over to the Pokémon Center and restore your Pokémon’s health. Go to the
PokéMart if you need to, etc.

When you want to, head into the Gym. Inside, you’ll find Norman, your father,
who is also the fifth Gym Leader of the Hoenn region. Speak with him and he’ll
converse a little with you.

Soon, a kid, Wally, comes in. He wants a Pokémon that will accompany him to
his home in Verdanturf Town. Your father will hand over a Zigzagoon and a Poké
Ball, then send you along with Wally to make sure the capture goes well. Once
you leave, you’ll be taken back to Route 102.

Once you enter, you and Wally will take to the grass. After some looking
around, Wally is jumped by a Pokémon.

The Pokémon is a Lv. 5 Ralts (lucky… you don’t understand how rare that is.).
Anyhow, the battle is out of your control. Watch the method for a generic
capture and Wally will indeed get a Ralts. He’ll become overjoyed and you will
return to the Gym with him.

Back at the Gym, Wally will thank you and Norman before leaving.

Norman then tells you to fight the Gym Leaders throughout the Hoenn region
before revealing that he himself is a Gym Leader. However, he will not battle
you yet. He is the fifth Gym Leader, and the one mostly training the Normal
type.

Anyhow, leave the Gym and you’ll meet a man in sunglasses, saying that he is
seeking talented Trainers in the Hoenn region. He’ll leave.

Head west to Route 104.

While you are here, be absolutely sure to capture a Taillow. Taillow is one of
those semi-generic Normal/Flying Pokémon; yet, it is useful if at least for the
Fly HM. I always try to make a Normal/Flying Pokémon part of my team, mostly
due to the multiple resistances and immunities.

Also while playing Emerald, I tend to capture a Marill. It is a rather
useless Pokémon as far as battles go. So why? Well, HM slaving. See, the thing
is, HM moves are necessary for game progress, but SUCK in battle quite often.
Therefore, the less good ones with them, the better. You do this with HM
slaves, which can reduce the HM users in your party to two instead of three or
four.

Anyhow, this Route is also pretty linear. To the southwest, on the beach, you
can find two Trainers there. The other Trainer is to the north. You’ll want to
battle her – you’ll get $1,400 for winning!

Anyway, finish up your business here, ignore the cottage, and head northwerst
into the Petalburg Woods.

Once you enter the forest, head west to the find Trainer with four Wurmple. :/
Not exactly the best idea… Grab the Parlyz Heal on the way. Continue east to
another grassy area.

North of here, you’ll find a Team Aqua member taking the Devon Goods from one
of Devon’s researchers. (Team Aqua, as well as Team Magma, are the evil
criminal organizations of the Hoenn region, much like Team Rocket (Kanto and
Johto), Team Galactic (Sinnoh), and Team Plasma (Unova).)

Anyhow, you’ll fight this Grunt. It is a fairly simple battle against a Lv. 9
Poochyena. Unless you’ve actually evolved a Torchic by now, neither one of you
has a type advantage over the other. So wail on the opponent.

After the battle, you’ll receive the Great Ball from the Devon Researcher. The
Great Ball has a catch rate 1.5x that of the regular Poké Ball. Sweet. Continue
west to find two split grassy patches, one of which has an Ether in it. (An
Ether restores 10 PP.) The other takes you towards the end of the forest, but
you will battle a Trainer on the way.

Continue along the path, past the next Trainer, and north, out of the forest,
onto Route 104. (Again.)

Once you exit Petalburg Woods (am I the only one thinking of Paper Mario 2 by
now?), head west to find some Berries. Grab them and speak with the kid nearby
to receive TM09, Bullet Seed. Bullet Seed is a Grass-type move that has low
power, but hits multiple times. Due to the low power, it would be best placed
on a Grass type.

Now, what are TMs? TMs, or Technical Machines, are these items that can teach
moves to Pokémon that they often wouldn’t learn otherwise. These moves can
often be very powerful – as with TM50, Overheat. However, the downside to using
a TM is that it can only be used once (unless you play Black/White). HMs, or
Hidden Machines, are specialized versions of TMs. They, too, can teach moves,
often powerful ones, like Surf. However, HMs have an unlimited number of uses,
but they can only be found once. HMs can also be used outside of battles once
you get the corresponding Gym Badge.

Nearby, you’ll some Berry trees. One has Oran Berries; the other, Cheri
Berries. The former heals 10 HP; the latter cure Paralysis.

Also nearby is the Pretty Petal Flower Shop. Shop in there if you wish, but
the stuff can’t be used for a while until you can make a Secret Base. Also be
sure to speak with one of the girls in there to obtain the Wailmer Pail, an
items helps out with Berry growing. What is truly odd, though, is that is has
an infinite water supply (you never end up refilling it). O_o Finally, also
speak to one of the girls here to receive one Berry daily.

Exit when you’re done there and head east. You’ll find encounter a Rich Boy
(with $1,400). Further along, on the bridge, you’ll find two Trainers for a
double battle.

A double battle is a 2-on-2, often in which you supply two Pokémon. In these,
your Pokémom both gain EXP. You can choose a Pokémon to target, so you can
gang up on one (my strategy). It’s really not worth mentioning, except that you
must have two Pokémon in your party to participate, in which case all of the
double battles, save for one, are optional.

Go further north to find some Berry trees. As you go, make sure to speak with
the Fisherman near the water to battle some of the useless Magikarp. Also speak
with the old lady nearby for a Chesto Berry, an item that heals the Sleep
status.

West from here, you’ll find Rustboro City.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Let’s begin by finding the PokéMart north of you. Here, you can shop for stuff
as usual, most notably, the Super Potions. Super Potions will heal 50_HP,
rather than the Potions’ 20 HP. You’ll get 2.5x the effect at just 2.3x the
cost.

Further north is the Pokémon Center. Heal as usual.

Next up, go into the building to the west of the Pokémon Center. Speak with the
man inside to obtain HM01, Cut. If you don’t understand HMs and TMs, see
paragraph two of the “Route 104 (North)” section above. This move will let you
to cut down small trees outside of battle – I believe one was in the southeast
portion of Route 104 (North), in fact. In battle, it isn’t that useful, mostly
seeing as you cannot get rid of it for a better move until far later. Just to
note, you cannot yet actually use Cut out of battles – you’ll need the Stone
Badge.

Return to the Pokémon Center’s front entrance and head to the fountain, to the
north of which is the Pokémon Trainers’ School. You can read about SOME of the
status conditions on the chalkboard (it notably forgets to mention Pokérus).
Also speak to the teacher to soon receive a Quick Claw, an item that, when
held by a Pokémon in-battle, it might let the Pokémon strike first.

Okay, next, head to the Rustboro Gym. We aren’t going there YET, though. Head
east and into the house. There, you can trade a Ralts for a Seedot (it is
named Dots, and holds a Chesto Berry). It is your personal choice, although I
recommend against it.

Heal up if you still haven’t done so, then head west into the rocky Rustboro
Gym.

A truly simplistic Gym. Head forward to find the first Trainer. Further along,
closer to Roxanne, are two Trainers, which you could walk in-between for a
double battle (unless you have one Pokémon, in which they battle you one at a
time).

When you defeat the three Trainers, return outside to heal if necessary, then
return to speak to Roxanne. The battle will begin after that.

Once you have obtained the Stone Badge, leave the Gym.

Outside, heal up at the Pokémon Center, then head towards the large building to
the west of the Rustboro Gym, the Devon Corp. Building. You’ll see a Team
Aqua member flee, with the researcher you saved back in the Petalburg Woods
chasing him. Go to the northern part of the town to find the man, who will
tell you that the thief – the Team Aqua member – stole the Devon Goods.

Head east to Route 116.

I highly recommend catching a Nincada. Why do I do so over the Abra? Well,
firstly, it is easier to catch. But, seriously, it has a unique evolution. It
will evolve SIMULTANEOUSLY into Ninjask and Shedinja (you get both) at Lv. 20.
The former is VERY fast. The latter has one HP, but can only be hit with five
move types: Fire, Flying, Rock, Ghost, and Dark. Of course, Abra’s evolutions
are EXCEPTIONALLY awesome. I highly recommend him over Ralts.

This Route has quite a few Trainers. The Route mainly heads east, although you
can take a few different paths that diverge and merge to and from the main
path to find a few different Trainers. Follow the path eastward.

Once you reach the end of the ledge, a house should be to the north. Go towards
it, but ignore it and cut down the Cut tree nearby to be able to reach some
more Trainers.

Return eastward to find a cavern, with an old man next to the entrance. He will
tell you that his Wingull, Peeko, has been Poké-napped by someone, most likely
to be the Team Aqua guy with the Devon Goods. Enter the cave.

As you enter, head north to find an item upstairs. Go south a bit, then east
to find the thief/Pokénapper/Team Aqua Grunt from earlier. You can also see the
Wingull, Peeko, he stole, too. As you near him, he’ll back away. Unfortunately
for him, you can’t really retreat in this cave without Rock Smash, so you’ll
have to speak with him to battle his Lv. 11 Poochyena.

Again, nothing special. Remember, though: Poochyena are weak to Fighting and
Bug, and immune to Psychic.

After you beat him, the Grunt shall flee, leaving Peeko and the Devon Goods
behind. The old man, Briney, will enter to take back Peeko before leaving. You
should follow suit.

Head north-northwest and Cut down the tree to enter this path if you didn’t do
so earlier. You’ll find a few more Trainers here.

Regardless, head west into Rustboro City.

building, which is, in essence, the Hoenn version of the Kanto Silph Co. You’ll
be taken to the top floor to speak with the boss, Mr. Stone.

Mr. Stone will thank you for saving the man, then give you a letter to deliver
to Steven Stone on Dewford Island. You are also to deliver the Devon Goods to
Captain Stern in Slateport City. As a reward for probably doing this work, you
are given the Pokénav, a device containing the Hoenn map, Pokémon Contest data,
and Trainer data.

Return to the ground floor and leave. When you do, a Devon Researcher will
exit the building to upgrade your Pokénav with a feature absent in Ruby and
Sapphire. It is the Match Call. Similar to the VS. Seeker of FireRed and
LeafGreen, it will let you rematch others. In the Match Call list, an envelope
icon will appear next to trainers who want to rematch you, although this won’t
happen until after the fifth badge.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center, then head on over to your rival. Let the battle
begin!

After the battle, heal up in the Pokémon Center, then head south, back onto
Route 104.

Go south, across the bridge, then west and south, back into the Petalburg
Woods.

Head east this time and Cut down the tree. You’ll be able to find a Miracle
Seed, which powers up Grass moves by 10%, by speaking to the woman you can find
along this path.

Then simply head south and out.

Next, head into the cottage that you’ll find south-ish of you. Inside, you
will find Mr. Briney and Peeko running around. Speak with Mr. Briney to be
allowed onto Dewford Island.

I hope you noticed the way the travel occurred. That means that you’ll be later
able to traverse these waters, which will happen.

There is not much to speak of here when you initially arrive. A Fisherman on
the beach to the east is capable of handing over an Old Rod, though. Alas,
this Rod is infamous for its incredible ability to catch the useless Pokémon
(pre-evolution), Magikarp. In the words of AstralFire, another GameFAQs user,
“Great. A Magikarp stick.”

Next, go into the house east of the Pokémon Center and speak with the man
within to receive the Silk Scarf. This hold item will power up Normal-type
moves by 10%, I think. Also go into the house north of the Pokémon Center to
find a kid inside, who will give you TM36, Sludge Bomb.

Go to the Pokémon Center and heal up. Bring along Kirlia, Kadabra, Swellow, or
Shedinja to the Gym.

Head north, then as far east as possible. Defeat the Trainer located in the
small alcove to the south.

Go north, then east for a double battle. Return to the opening and go north to
find two split paths. Take the eastern one, then head north. You’ll find two
more openings. Go through the lower one for a Trainer battle. Head northeast
from there to find the last Trainer.

Go to the northwestern portion of the Gym to find the Gym Leader.

| starter works just as well, as does Shedinja. Participators should be |
| Lv. 18+. |

For winning, you will obtain the second Hoenn Badge, the Knuckle Badge. You

| Trainers’ Pokémon: Tentacool Lv. 11 |
| Magikarp Lv. 10 (x2), Tentacool Lv. 7 |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

On this Route, it is worth considering catching a Magikarp or a Tentacool. Both
Pokémon become quite useful once they evolve.

<= 1F =>

Go forward and speak with the Hiker to obtain HM05, Flash. Flash, in a battle,
will lower the opponents’ accuracy. Outside of battle, as long as you have the
Knuckle Badge, it can light up dark areas. Grass Pokémon can learn it, or at
least some of them. Abra also can learn it, if you have caught it.

Anyhow, onto Pokémon. Abra remains a fairly decent substitute for Ralts’s
chain, although it is tougher to train. Makuhita makes for a fairly decent
Fighting Pokémon. Aron, on later floors, is okay, depending on your personal
strategy. Geodude is a must have, as is Sableye, the Pokémon with no
weaknesses and three immunities. Only one other Pokémon, as for the fifth
generation (Black/White) is like this: Spiritomb. Saming typing, as well.

Anyhow, follow the linear path and head down the ladder.

<= B1F =>

Use Flash to light it up here. Go north to find a sandy slope. You can’t go up
it yet because you need a Mach Bike to do so.

Continue along to an opening to the south, in which is a Poké Ball. Return
north and east to a ladder. Climb down.

<= B2F =>

Continue along the path, ignoring the rocks (you can deal with them later on).
When you pass by an oddly-colored rock, go up the stairs and examine to find an
Everstone, which, which held, prevents evolution.

Go east to the ladder.

<= B1F =>

Go west to the ladder.

<= 1F =>

Go along the path and into the small room. There, you’ll find a man. Speak to
him to learn that he is Steven Stone, the desired recipient of the letter given
to you by Mr. Stone. After some talking, you’ll be given TM47, Steel Wing, a
decent move for your Swellow or another Flying Pokémon.

Exit the room, hop over the ledges, head east and out of the cavern. (Or use
an Escape Rope, if you have one.)

Return to Dewford Town.

Go along the forest path out of the forest.

Go east, across the bridge, and north to Rustboro City.

Heal up if needed, then head to the Devon Corp. building. Head to the third
floor and speak with Mr. Stone. As a reward for delivering the Letter, you’ll
be given the EXP. Share.

The EXP. Share is an item that allows a Pokémon to receive ~50% of the EXP.
from a battle, despite the fact that it did not participate. This is quite good
for raising Pokémon on the side, or for those, like Magikarp and Abra, that are
tough to level up otherwise. Don’t think you’ll use it in such a manner? Well,
put it on your lead Pokémon, who will then get bonus EXP.!

Anyhow, leave Devon Corp. and head south, out of the city.

Go south, across the bridge, then southwest to the Petalburg Woods.

Head east this time and Cut down the tree. You’ll be able to find a Miracle
Seed, which powers up Grass moves by 10%, if you did not grab it earlier. Then
simply go south and outside of the woods.

Speak with Mr. Briney and head on over to Dewford.

When you arrive on the beach, you have access to quite a few Trainer battles.
Take advantage of these – if you beat Brawly, you can handle these that are

the northwestern corner. Inside, beat the three Trainers and speak with the
man to the north to receive six Soda Pops, which are Super Potions x1.2, for
free. Sweet. (Literally and metaphorically.)

While you’re on the beach, speak to the two Tubers in front of Mr. Briney’s

When you arrive at the city itself, go to the outdoor market to the west. Here,
you can find some various shops selling the items above. One such shop — the
one selling TMs 10 and 43 — will not open until you receive the respective
TMs later on, I think.

Further north of the market, you’ll find the Contest House. Unlike the single
Contest building in Gen. IV, there are four of these in Hoenn for each ranking.
You participate in a certain category, blah blah blah. This is the kind of
stuff the game tells you. Learn it yourself. My point is that you cannot do a
Contest yet – this one is too highly ranked. However, be sure to go inside and
speak with the girl on the west side to obtain the Pokéblock Case.

There is also a Name Rater and a Pokémon Fan Club in town. Visit them at your
own discretion.

Okay, now let’s get on with it. Heal up at the Pokémon Center and buy some
stuff at the PokéMart, most notably the Great Balls (remember, 1.5x catch
rate). Also buy a Harbor Mail – you’ll need it later. Leave yourself at least
$50. Head southeast to find a bunch of Team Aqua members near the Museum.

Enter the harbor building and speak with the man inside, Dock, to learn that
Captain Stern went to the museum. (Do people actually name their kids like
this?) Head to the museum – where the Team Aqua members were near – and go
inside.

Pay the $50 and speak with the first Team Aqua member you can find in here on
the first floor to obtain TM46 (Thief). Go upstairs and speak with the man
there, Captain Stern. After a short conversation, you’ll fight two battles.

After the battle, the leader of Team Aqua, Archie will come up. After a quick
threat for you not to mess with them again, they leave.

Captain Stern will thank you and talk some more before leaving. Follow suit.

As you exit the Museum, the man with the sunglasses from Petalburg City will
meet you again. He’ll introduce himself as Scott, then register himself into
your Pokénav

Heal up and head north to Route 110.

Ahhh… Route 110. This one really brings back memories. This was the Route
where I caught my first Shiny Pokémon, Gulpin, back on Sapphire Version. It was
purple rather than green. Of course, at the time, I had no idea its special
quality. I ended up trading it to Pokémon XD, then later resetting that game…
with Gulpin still on there. >_<

*ahem* Anyhow, much like the other games, this is the Cycling Road Route. You
cannot access this Road now, because you lack a Bike, and there is no glitch to
access it early like in R/B/Y/G.

You will find Professor Birch on the Route fairly early on. He’ll be looking
for your rival, then register himself into the Pokénav. You can go north to
find a path going west (to Route 103 and some Trainers). When you’re done
there, go east to the grassy part of Route 110. Soon, you’ll come across your
rival for a battle!

As you enter town, go into the first house you can and give the girl inside a
Harbor Mail. In return, you receive a Coin Case, which allows you to play at
the Game Corner.

Next, go into the southeasternmost house and speak with the man inside to get
HM06, Rock Smash. This is a weak (20 Power) Fighting-type move that may lower
the target’s defense. However, when you get enough Badges, you can use it to
break rocks (such as those in the Granite Cave) outside of battle.

In the building to the north, you can obtain a Bike. There are, in fact, two
Bikes. However, you can only have one of them, but you can swap them here when
you wish. The Acro Bike is slower, but allows Bunny Hopping (hold A when you
are stationary), Wheelies (hold A while moving), and side hops (A + the D-Pad).
The Mach Bike is much faster and can go up those sandy slopes, one of which you
saw in the Granite Cave.

Once you get a Bike, head to the Cycling Road for some battling and training.
I won’t list that though – it’s not even needed.

Whenever you’re done, head back to Mauville and heal up at the Pokémon Center.
Go to the Gym and you’ll find Wally out front, complaining about how his uncle
won’t let him fight the Gym Leader. You soon get noticed for a battle.

After defeating Wally, he’ll decide to head home. As he does, Wally’s uncle
realizes that you are the Trainer who helped Wally catch Ralts. He’ll converse
some, then leave. Scott then comes up and speak to you as well.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center, then speak to the man next to the Gym. This man
will teach Rollout to a Pokémon – it a five-turn Rock-type move that will
double in power each turn until it misses.

Time to leave.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center, then head west onto Route 117.

A major landmark on this Route would be the Pokémon Daycare, that building just
to the northwest of the City-Route border. Here, you can drop off a Pokémon or
two and leave it here. For every step you take, the Pokémon will gain 1 EXP.
The Pokémon will gain levels, too. However there is a cost: $100 + ($100 times
the number of levels gained). If you leave a male and female Pokémon here, you
can also come back later to receive a Pokémon Egg. The mechanics (in-game, of
course, not scientific) are better explained in other FAQs.

When you get on the Route, go south to find a double battle and some Berries.
Go to the Daycare and west to find three more Trainers past the two ponds.
Defeat them and go north. Cut down the Cut tree to get a Revive.

At the flower patches, go into the south garden and through the trees to find a
free Great Ball to the right.

After that, simply exit the garden and head west.

Outside, in the clearing, it seems someone has lost their glasses. Using the
Itemfinder (or by manually checking every tile), find the Blackglasses. Show
them to the guy, who then realizes these glasses are not his, so you get to
keep them. (FYI, you can’t find his glasses.) Anyhow, the Blackglasses power up
Dark-type moves. Also pick up the HP Up on the east side. Get back in the
Tunnel.

There, from the fork from earlier, go north and west to find two people that
have been separated by some cracked boulders, as you may have seen earlier soon
after obtaining the Stone Badge. Anyhow, break a rock and the couple will be
reunited, with the man giving you HM04.

HM04 contains Strength. Strength is an 80-Power Normal-type move that is fairly
powerful, but lacks side effects. Later on, when you can use it outside of
battle, you’ll be able to push the large, rounded boulders around.

Go east, then south to Verdanturf.

Finish up any business, such as healing, then go east to Route 117.

Head east into Mauville.

Head on over to the Pokémon Center to heal up – the next one is a while away.
As such, also shop a bit.

When you’re ready, head north to find Route 111.

As for the “Gabby & Ty” note above: this means the reporters Gabby & Ty can
appear on this Route, and have this party at the time of encounter IF YOU ARE
FOLLOWING THE WALKTHROUGH – IF NOT, IT WILL LIKELY BE DIFFERENT.

Head northward, and Smash the rocks. You might to pick up the Elixir you’ll
find on the ground as you proceed to do this. Continue along to find the
interviewers, Gabby & Ty. Battle and defeat them, then have a one-word
interview with them.

Continue northward and you’ll find the desert. This place cannot be (legally)
entered until later on, when you obtain the Go Goggles after finishing the
fourth Gym.

Continue west to find Route 112.

A fairly short and linear Route. Go west, then north and up the staircase,
defeating the Trainers as you do so.

Once you get onto the mountain, you’ll find a Cable Car nearby, as well as
some Team Magma members blocking it. Instead, go west to the Fiery Path.

Quite the linear place, eh? Anyhow, we might as well mention some Pokémon.
Koffing is notable for having only one weakness, Psychic, because its ability
nullifies Ground. Numel is quite good once it evolves, though, like Slugma’s
evolution, it has a double weakness. Torkoal would be recommended for a more
defensive player, but it’s your choice.

Anyhow, go north, west, north, east, and south to find the exit. As you do so,
notice the rounded boulder you find on the way. This is a Strength boulder,
moved by using HM04 (Strength) out of battle.

Anyhow, finish up your business and leave.

On the northern half of Route 112, grab the Berries nearby and head east. Go
north after defeating two Trainers, then speak to the guy near the tree to
obtain TM43, Secret Power, which is a fairly decent battle move, and can also
be used on trees like the one nearby to make Secret Bases.

Further along, go to the house to heal up. Near siad house is a girl who will
give you a Razz Berry, and another once daily.

Head west, finish off some more Trainers, then you’ll hit Route 113.

Ahhh… Ash… So beauti — *coughs*

Anyhow…

Skarmory is quite the good Pokémon. Its typing negates two Steel weaknesses,
Fighting and Ground (the latter to immunity) and negates Flying’s weakness to
Rock and Ice. In fact, it only has two weaknesses, Fire and Electric, each
just a 2x weakness, with two immunities (Poison, Ground), and many resistances:
Normal, Grass (1/4), Flying, Psychic, Bug (1/4), Ghost, Dragon, Dark, and
Steel. Well worth the effort.

Also worth noting is Spinda. It can learn some decent Psychic moves to help
counter its Fighting weakness. However, that is not the real notable thing
about it. The true notability comes from its number of Forms – I think it over
eight million or billion. If you can collect them all … you are a hacker.

The Route has ash falling from the sky, mostly because it is at the base of Mt.
Chimney, an active volcano. Anyhow, continue westward and you will soon come
across a house. Inside, speak with the man to obtain the Soot Sack. The Soot
Sack collects soot, which you collect by walking through sooty grass, which
can then be traded for various items.

Continue westward. You’ll soon come across some mounds. One contains TM32
(Double Team) if you examine it.

Further westward is Fallarbor Town.

Hm. Go into the Pokémon Center to heal up (and maybe get ash all over the
place). Also here, in front of the PC, you’ll find Lanette, the manager of the
Hoenn Pokémon PC Storage System — basically, she does what Bill does in
Kanto and Johto, but without getting into wacky experiments. 🙂

Also of note is a person in the Pokémon teaching Metronome, a move that allows
the user to use a random move. For example, a Water-type might use Flamethrower
or something. Risky but sometimes worth the empty slot.
Exit and you’ll also find the Super Rank Contest House, which can only
be competed in by Pokémon who have beaten a Normal Rank Contest in Verdanturf
Town.

Exit when done, then go to the crater near the southwestern house and examine
its set to obtain a Nugget. Then go into the northwestern house to find the
Move Tutor’s home. For a Heart Scale, you can reteach a Pokémon a move it has
forgotten – fairly key in Daycare raising.

Finish up your business, then head west to Route 114.

As you arrive onto the Route, head west and into the house. Speak with the kid
inside to earn TM28, Dig. Dig is a decent Ground-type attack, in which the user
goes underground for one turn to attack on the next. During the underground
time, as of Gen. III, only Earthquake and Fissure can hit. It also has a use
in the Regi-hunting sidequest.

Leave and head west. Speak with the man next to the Poochyena to get TM05,
Roar, a move that causes the opponent’s Pokémon to switch, or causes a wild
battle to end.

Go south to the bridge. Defeat the two Trainers before it, one mid-way
acorss, and another at the end. Head into the grass and head south of the rocks
and head to find another Trainer, and a building.

Inside, you’ll find Lanette again, who will hand you a Lotad Doll. Exit and
talk to the kid near the grass to get a random Berry daily. Go through the
grass, heading south, to find a Pokémaniac. Defeat him and examine the rock
behind him for a Carbos (increases Speed EVs by 10).

Go up the stairs nearby to and you’ll find a rock. Smash it and pick up the
Protein (Attack EVs +10) at the end. Turn around and follow the path. It is
quite linear and contains the rest of the Trainers. Enter the cavern when you
reach it.

When you enter, go up the stairs nearby, then go west and across the bridge.
You’ll find a Scientist, in addition to a few Team Magma members. They’ll
speak some, then Team Aqua arrives. After a conversation, both will leave.

Next, go downstairs, west, north, and upstairs to find a Moon Stone. Then head
downstairs, south, east, upstairs, across the bridge, and out.

Head north, then east, to Fallarbor.

Heal your Pokémon, then leave heading east.

Head east to Route 112.

Go south, then southwest into the Fiery Path.

Go backtracking along the very linear path and out to the southern part of
Route 112.

Head east upon exiting the Fiery Path to find the Cable Car station freed. Go
inside, and into the Cable Car.

Anyhow, go west and north, battling some Team Magma Grunts on the way. You will
then find the leader of the Team Magma, Maxie. He will speak of the stolen
Meteorite from Meteor Falls and explain how it will cause the volcano to erupt,

After the battle ends, Maxie will whine momentarily before he and Team Magma
pack up and leave. Team Aqua’s leader, Archie will come up to you and thank
you for your help before leaving themselves.

Go to the machine and examine it to find a Meteorite. Now, time to return it
to its rightful owner. Go to the Cable Car station and down to Route 112.

Exit the Cable Car station, then head west into the Fiery Path.

Go north, west, north, east, and south to find the exit.

Go east, north, and west to Route 113.

Head west to Fallarbor.

Here, head into the Pokémon Center to heal up, then into the southwestern
house. Speak with Prof. Cozmo inside to be able to hand him the Meteorite that
is useless to you otherwise. In return, you obtain TM27, Return, a move that
will gain power as the user grows more friendly to you.

Leave heading east.

Head east to Route 112.

Okay, upon exiting the Cable Car, head south and into the Jagged Pass.

This is just your basic southward-bound path in which you can take multiple
routes. You can use two different methods – jumping over the ledges, or hopping
along the small rocks via the Acro Bike. Either way, fight a few Trainers and
exit when you hit the bottom.

By the way, when your here, take a bit of caution around the Team Magma Grunt
(last Trainer on the list). Speak with him and note his location.

Leave when desired.

Let’s begin by first heading to the Pokémon Center to heal. While we are here,
open up a slot in your party so we can put something there in a moment.

Outside, go near the hot spring and speak with the old lady near the sand beds.
She will give you a Pokémon Egg. This particular Egg will eventually hatch into
a Lv. 5 Wynaut, a Psychic type and the pre-evolution of Wobbuffet. Eggs simply
hatch by walking around – nothing special required.

Finally, the man in the back of the Herbal Store will hand over a Charcoal, an
item that raises Fire-type moves’ power by 10%. The next house will have a
person inside teaching Mimic to a Pokémon; Mimic merely copies the last move
used by the opponent.

Train some and grab some Water/Rock/Ground types – we’re heading to blazing
Fire-type Gym.

This Gym’s puzzle consists of going through various sand pits/launches between
the top and bottom floors.

Begin by taking the western drop. Battle the Trainer to the right of launch,
then return through the launch to the entrance. Go north to find a drop. Jump
down in this one, then go south and west.

There is an opening north of here, but there are two Trainers in the mist as
well. From them, head left to find two drops. Pick one and go east to find some
more Trainers.

Head north to find a launch, with a Trainer east of it. Jump in the launch.
Go north for a drop, to the east of which you’ll find a Trainer. Jump into the
drop to the north. Defeat the Trainer to the northeast. Take the launch nearby.
From the sand drop used to get here, use one to the east. Head south and into
the sand. Jump off the ledge to the south, jump into the sand.

By this point, you should be in the same “cell” as Flannery. Speak with her to
begin.

| Slugma (Lv. 24) Fire |
| Camerupt (Lv. 26) Fire/Ground |
| Torkoal (Lv. 29) Fire |
|—————————————————————————–|
| Slugma and Torkoal are weak to Water, Rock, and Ground. |
| |
| Numel and Camerupt are weak to Water (4x), Rock (?), and Ground (?). Both |
| are immune to Electric. |
| |
| The Slugma enjoys to use Sunny Day to power up the move Flamethrower, the |
| former of which will power up Fire while weakening Water. Torkoal can use |
| Body Slam (Normal; 30% chance of Paralysis), Overheat (225-Power with STAB |
| (it is therefore Fire)), and Attract (those affected will only have a 50% |
| chance of doing something). Sunny Day is assumed. |
| |
| Recommendations: Any Water or Rock type Pokémon at Lv. 30+ is preferred. |
| Examples include Marshtomp, Gyarados, Tentacruel, Graveler, and Golem. |
| That actually composes the majority of the non-traded Pokémon that would |
| work best here. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Once you have won, you’ll receive the Heat Badge, TM50 (Overheat), the ability
to use HM04 (Strength) out of battles, and all traded Pokémon up to Lv. 50 will
obey you completely.

Four down, four to go!

After defeating Flannery, take the eastern drop, head south, take eastern
launch, then leave.

As you leave the Gym, you’ll run into your rival. They will speak with you
some, notably mentioning that you should fight your father in Petalburg. You
will also receive the Go-Goggles from them. The Go-Goggles allows you to enter
sandstorms, such as the one on Route 111. Hint hint.

Heal up and head east onto Route 112.

Drop off of the ledges to the east of Lavaridge, grabbing the Nugget as you go.
When you reach the bottom, head to Route 111.

When you enter from Route 112, then hit the desert, pick up the nearby
Stardust, an item with no known use aside from being sold for money. Head north
to the other end of the desert, then go east to find a Trainer in the
northeastern corner. Head south for another two, with another three further
south.

Further south, you’ll find TM37, Sandstorm. Sandstorm (ie. the weather in the
desert here) will damage all Pokémon, except Rock/Ground/Steel types, for five
turns.

Head northwest to the southern-Route 111 entrance to the desert we used. To the
northeast, you MIGHT find a tower. It is there sometimes, and sometimes not.
If it is not there, wait a while a return. You’ll need Rock Smash and the Mach
Bike to finish this area, the Mirage Tower.

Return to the non-deserty portion of Route 111, then southward to Mauville.

Upon entering, head east and north. You’ll find a ladder in the northeastern
corenr of the room. Climb up. Head west to find cracks in the floor, much like
Sky Pillar before it. If you walk over them, you’ll fall to the below floor.
The only way to avoid such is to use the Mach Bike with a head start, then at
full speed.

Follow the path to a ladder. Head on up. Here, go west and north to two sets of
rocks. Use Rock Smash and go up the next ladder. On the top floor, Rock Smash
the rock blocking the stairs, then go up to find two fossils. Only one can be
taken at the moment.

~~ The Claw Fossil on the right will yield an Anorith when it is brought back
to life. Anorith is a Bug/Rock Pokémon that evolves into Armaldo at Lv. 40.
It is weak to Water, Steel, and perhaps Ground. It has a type advantage over
Grass, Dark, Psychic, Fire, Flying, Ice, and Bug.

~~ The Root Fossil on the left yields Lileep when resurrected. It is a
Grass/Rock Pokémon that evolves at Lv. 40 into Cradily. It is weak to Ice,
Fighting, Bug, and Steel. It has a type-based advantage over Water, Rock,
Ground, Fire, Ice, Flying, and Bug. I prefer this one, due its relatively
high Defense and Sp. Defense, and its decent moves.

We’ll resurrecting these Pokémon shortly. For now, leave the Tower.

Go south to Mauville City.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center, then head west onto Route 117.

Head west to Verdanturf Town.

Head north to the Rusturf Tunnel.

First and foremost, heal up if you need to. Then head to the Devon Corp.

to learn that he has created a machine that revives Pokémon from fossils. Give
him one, leave the room, then re-enter the room. Speak with the man to receive
the Pokémon in the fossil, as described in the Mirage Tower section a bit above
here. Then head to the third floor and speak with Mr. Stone to receive your
EXP. Share for delivering his letter if you have not yet done as such.

That’s it, I guess. Leave to the south.

Go south, across the bridge, then west and south, back into the Petalburg
Woods.

Head east this time and Cut down the tree. You’ll be able to find a Miracle
Seed, which powers up Grass moves by 20%, assuming you STILL haven’t grabbed
it yet. Then simply head south and out of the forest.

Let’s head eastward, into Petalburg.

HM03 contains Surf. Surf is a 95-Power Water-type move that hits both of your
opponents in a double battle. To compare it, it has the same power as either
Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, or Flamethrower. Seeing as you have five Badges, you can
use it outside of battle to Surf across water. Neat.

Seeing as we can Surf now, Surf across the water to the east of the Gym to find
a Max Revive, which revives a Pokémon from the Fainted/KO status with full HP.
Surfing across the water on the southwestern side of the city will yield an
Ether.

‘Kay, we’re back. Go into the building next to the Gym and speak with the man
inside, who just happens to be Wally’s father. After a short conversation, you
will be given HM03.

Well, let’s begin testing it out. Head west to Route 104.

Get onto the beach here. Teach a Pokémon (Marshtomp, Swampert, Tentacruel,
Gyarados, etc.) Surf, then face the water. Press A and you can Surf on the
water!

Let’s head south to Route 105.

Go south and fight the first, then the second Trainer you find. Continue south
to find a small island on the left. Get on it and defeat the Trainer. Surf onto
the water to the west to find another bit of land. Defeat the Trainers upon it
and Surf north to find a Trainer. Return to the first chunk of land, then Surf
east.

Continue south to a Trainer. Defeat the Trainer, then head southwest to find
a small piece of land with an Iron (+10 Defense EVs). Pick it up, then go
further south to Route 106.

After defeating Swimemr Kyla, head south to find a Protein (+10 Attack EVs).

Continue south to Dewford.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Dewford Town
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Heal if needed, then Surf east to Route 107.

Head eastward to Route 108.

As you continue along this Route, you’ll find a ship, an abandoned ship at
that. There isn’t a ton you can do here for now, but go on in anyhow.

Head into the ship. When you get to the room with a cabin and a broken door,
go through the broken door for a double battle. Head north and through the
door. Go into the room to the left to find a Harbor Mail. Exit and head down
the staircase.

Defeat the Trainer nearby. Enter the southwestern cabin to find an Escape Rope,
then go into the broken-door cabin to find a Dive Ball. Go up the northwestern
staircase.

Defeat the Tuber here, then enter the northern cabin to have a double battle.
Go further south for another. Continue south and leave the room. Go through
the entrance in the southwestern corner of the room.

Go upstairs and into this room. Grab the Storage Key and leave. Return to the
room with the Sailor. Enter the northeastern room to find TM13, Ice Beam.

Nothing else to do but … ABANDON SHIP! 😀

Surf east to Route 109.

Continue Surfing eastward, then onto the island to the north. Defeat the
couple, then go south for another island. Defeat the two Trainers here, then
head north to find a find a PP Up (increase max PP by ~20%) on the island.

Go north for another battle, then another to the west, the two to the north.
Continue north into Slateport.

Okay, heal up here if you need to. Do the Hyper Rank Contests if you want to
(and have a Pokémon that’s finished a Super Rank Contest).

Then head north to Route 110.

Head north on the ground to the fork. Go west and onto Route 103. We have
some battlin’ to do.

(The Trainers above are from west to east, opposite of how we’re going.)

Cut down the Tree nearby to find a Black Belt and Guitarist. Defeat them and
head west to find a PP Up. Continue your westward journey on the main Route
to find another four Trainer. You’ll have to go west in the water to find the
last two.

Once you’re done here, return to Route 110.

Head northward into Mauville City.

As you enter Mauville, you’ll find Wattson standing in one of the intersections
in the city. Speak with him to learn of the other part of town, New Mauville.
He wants you to shut off the generator there. He’ll give you the Basement Key.
Okay – heal and head south to Route 110.

Find the water near the Cycling Road checkpoint and Surf on it. Surf to the
east somewhat and you will find a cave. Go inside.

Head north to the large gate. Examine it and choose to use the Basement Key to
open it up, then head down.

Here, you can now find wild Pokémon. The point of this is to open the doors by
pressing buttons of the corresponding color (ie. blue to blue).

Hit the nearby blue button and head west. Push the yellow button, then head
west and north. Ignore the blue button and head east, then north to find an
Escape Rope. Return south, head east, north, and east to find an Ultra Ball.
Return to the Escape Rope’s previous location and stomp on the blue button.

Head north, then east to find a Lv. 25 Voltorb. Ignore the yellow switch it
was on top of and head west and north. The western item ball you soon come
across is a Parlyz Heal; the eastern one is a Lv. 25 Voltorb. Ignore the yellow
switch and continue north and east.

Go south at the fork to find two item balls. The western one is a Lv. 25
Voltorb; the eastern one is a Full Heal. Step on the yellow switch, then return
to the fork and head east.

You soon will find the generator room. Grab the item nearby (a Thunderstone),
then step onto the red switch.

Next, go west, south, step on the blue switch, go north, west, south, east,
step on the yellow switch, go west, south, east, north, east, south, west,
and upstairs. Leave.

Surf west and north to the mainland, then continue north to Mauville.

Go and talk to the Wattson now that you’ve turned off the New Mauville
generator. He’ll hand over TM24, which teaches Thunderbolt, a 95-Power
Electric-type move that has a chance to Paralyze.

Okay, back to business. Heal up and head east onto Route 118.

Head eastward and battle the Trainers. Surf across the water and speak to the
fisherman next to the water. Tell him “Yes” to get a Good Rod. Continue east
to find an opening in the ledge. Head east some more towards it, defeating the
Trainer on the beach.

Go through the gap to meet Steven, who will converse with you shortly. Cross
the grass to the east. Go further east onto Route 123.

Begin by heading east, nearly to the ledges, and you’ll see an item ball behind
a fence. Go through the gap in the fence to grab this Ultra Ball. Further east,
you will find a set of Twins (for the second battle on this list).

Return west, then north to the house. Nearby is a Trainer, as well as a dozen
Berry trees, yielding four to eight Pomeg, Qualot, and Grepa Berries
altogether. You can go into the house and speak to the man to receive two
random Berries (for example, I received the Tamato and Hondew Berries when I
played this for the FAQ). Speak to the woman and tell her a certain phrase to
earn another Berry…

– GREAT BATTLE: Spelon Berry.
– OVERWHELMING LATIAS: Watmel Berry.
– COOL LATIOS: Durin Berry.
– SUPER HUSTLE: Belue Berry.
– CHALLENGE CONTEST: Pamtre Berry.

When you’re done, head west onto Route 118.

Head west to the fork, then head north a bit. Go through the grass above the
ledge to find a Hyper Potion. Then return to the fork and head north to find
Route 119.

A fairly long and linear Route, Route 119 has a bunch of very tall grass and
Trainers. Begin the grassy are in front of you by battling the Trainer above
cyclist. Then head west to a set of trees, then north to a Trainer. Northeast
of there is a Super Repel. Go south for a Trainer. Head south one/two tiles,
then east, past the trees in the middle, to find two Trainers. Defeat them and
head north.

Glad that wasn’t “toxicodendron radicans” (poison ivy) yet?

After you get out of it, head north to the house. Get on the water to its
west. Head west/northwest to find some land. Get on it and defeat the
Fisherman. Head up the stairs and go to the northwest corner of the land to
find a Zinc (Sp. Defense EVs +10). Get back on the water and return to the
house.

Go along the lower road when possible and go through the grass to find some
Berries. If you have an Acro Bike, go along the small white railing by using
side hops. On that land, go to the northern fork and at the end. Examine the
lone flower near the mountain Secret Base entrance to obtain a Calcium.

Then get back to the other side and go along the higher road. Go north, battle
the Trainer, then go west across the bridge. Head north some more to find a
Trainer and some tall grass. Take the eastern, grassy path at the fork. Once
you reach the stairs, go east to find an Elixir. Go up the stairs and fight
the hidden Trainer. Go upstairs again, head west, battle the other Trainer, go
down the muddy slope, and grab the Hyper Potion.

Return to the upper level and simply head north to find the Weather Institute.
Go inside.

Assuming you did Routes 118, 123, and 119 in a completionist manner, your party
is probably quite weakened. When you head inside, go west to find a bed. Take a
nap in it. Also be sure to deposit a “trash” Pokémon or HM slave into the PC.

You’ll find some Team Aqua members here inside the Institute, with two on the
lower floor and three on the top. On the western side of the top floor is one
of the team’s main administrators, who you get the honor of defeating.
________________________________
| BOSS: Team Aqua Admin Shelly \

| Pokémon: Carvanha (Lv. 28) Water/Dark |
| Mightyena (Lv. 28) Dark |
|—————————————————————————–|
| Carvanha is weak to Electric, Grass, Fighting, and Bug. It is immune to |
| Psychic. Additionally, it has the Rough Skin ability, meaning that if you |
| physically attack it, the attacker loses ~6.25% of their HP. |
| |
| Mightyena is weak to Fighting and Bug, and is immune to Psychic. |
| |
| Recommendations: There’s not really anything too specific you need to go |
| with here. Your starter should be just fine, although Combusken and |
| Blaziken are weak to Water (from Carvanha), which is best countered with a |
| Fighting move. Regardless, those participating should be around Lv. 33. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, there will be a brief conversation, then the team will pack
their bags and leave. The owner of the Institute will then thank you by giving
you a Castform.

Castform comes at Lv. 25, and has no evolutionary chain. It is of the Normal
type. However, unlike most Pokémon, it can change type. This depends on the
weather. If it is Sunny, Castform is Fire; Rainy, Water; Hailing, Ice. Castform
will also come with the item Mystic Water, which increases the power of the
holder’s Water-type moves by 10%.

Heal up in the bed on the lower floor and leave.

Head across the bridge to your east, then begin to head north. As you do, you
will be stopped by your rival, who shortly talks with you before starting a
battle.

After the battle, you’ll receive HM02.

HM02 contains Fly. Fly is a high-power Flying move that has the user Fly up on
the first turn (rarely to be damaged, save for Thunder), then deal damage on
the second. When it can be used outside of battle, you can use it to Fly to
any previously-visited town or city.

Go south and downstairs after the conversation following the battle, then
Surf very far south to find a Leaf Stone, which can evolve certain Pokémon
(for example, it evolves Gloom into Vileplume). Go back north, then continue
along the path to Fortree City.

When you finally arrive, heal up at the Pokémon Center, then head over to the
PokéMart. The Pokémon has now_stocked Ultra Balls, which have a catch rate
2.0x the basic Poké Ball – 1.3x the Great Ball.

Now, into the trees. *makes a Tarzan yell* Anyhow, one of the top houses has
a woman inside. If you guess the correct hand the coin is in three times, you
get TM10 (Hidden Power). The correct order is “right, right, left”. The house
to its west has a trade in it — your Volbeat for her Plusle. Hmmm… Kind of
tough to say. Both suck, generally, but Plusle IS hard to find. Another house
up here has a man inside that teaches a Pokémon Sleep Talk, which will allow
you to use a random move when your Pokémon is asleep (“random” as in it is in
your moveset, but you cannot choose). Finally, the last house has a boy
inside. Speak with him and his Wingull will fly off. This will have some stuff
later on.

Now, to the Gym! *bump* It seems that a strange force is keeping out of here.
Hm… Anyhow, let’s just continue to Route 120, which is to the east.

(For the moment, you can only get the first three Trainers.)

One Pokémon truly worth mentioning here is Absol. Absol is a Dark-type Pokémon.
It has two weaknesses (Fighting and Bug), one immunity (Psychic), and two
advantages (Psychic and Ghost). Absol is simply quite the cool-looking Pokémon,
but also will have some major advantages later on (seventh Gym, Elite Four).
Get Absol.

Anyhow, when you hit the Route, head east and north to the Cut trees. Go along
this path and examine the last tile to find a Rare Candy.

Continue along the main Route onto the bridge to find Steven. Speak with him
some, then he’ll use the Devon Scope to reveal a Kecleon to you. (Hmm…
Silph Co. and Devon Corp.; Silph Scope and Devon Scope. Sounds a bit…
uncreative.)
______________________________
| Special Encounter: Kecleon \
|_______________________________\_____________________________________________
| Level: Level 30. |
| Type : Normal. Will change based on the last move it is hit with, though. |
| Moves: – Fury Swipes |
| – Faint Attack |
| – Psybeam |
| – Screech |
|—————————————————————————–|
| A fairly basic fight. Kecleon can be weak to any type at a certain time |
| because of its ability to change types (though not at its will), so you’ll |
| be best on referring to your knowledge or a Type Chart. Anyhow, this one |
| is worth catching – it is a higher level than the others here, right? |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, Steven will hand over the Deven Scope, then leave. You should
go back to Fortree City. On the way back, you should goo south from the first
Cut tree, through the grass, and down the stairs to find a Kecleon there.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Then Surf onto the water, go south, into the cave (Scorched Slab), and grab
TM11, which is Sunny Day. Sunny Day powers up Fire, weakens Water, makes
Solarbeam have no charge turn, and makes Thunder have a mere 50% chance of
hitting.

Anyhow, return to Fortree.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center, then head over to the Gym. When you reach the
force that blocked you earlier, simply use the Devon Scope to reveal another
Kecleon.

This Gym has a series of turning figures. You’ll understand what I mean soon
enough.

Go to the first one… (The diagrams are merely meant to show the figures, not
their actual positions, okay?)

_| Stand below the left offshoot, then go right. Go through the next one
| as you did before, then battle the Trainer. Go to the next one to the
north.

_____ Stand to the right of the lower offshoot and head west. Defeat the two
| Trainers. Go north.

|_ _| Stand in the northern corner of the longer figure and move east. Go to
| | the southern corenr of the shorter one and go west. Go around the block
| and push the figure southward. The longer figure is in its original
spot. Move the figure to the right. Go north and walk forward to go
through.

(No drawings here.)

Anyhow, you’ll find a big figure to the east, and a small one to the west. Go
to the smaller T-shaped figure. Get on the left side of the door and go west
to move it into another position. Go to the larger one get between the small
pieces of the door. Go north to make the door open. Go around to the T-shaped
door and walk down into it. Go to the big door again and go east on the longer
part of it to make it move. Get between the smaller pieces and head north to
go into the opening on the right, to Winona.

We’re done here – leave.

Restore your party’s health at the Pokémon Center and do any last-minute
shopping you may have. Finish any other business you have left, then head east
onto Route 120.

Continue to the bridge where you met Steven.

After this, head south for a Trainer, east for two, north for two, east for a
Revive, and east to find a Trainer near the grassy maze. There should be some
Aspear Berries north from here, if you use Cut.

Go into the grass maze. Head southeast to a Trainer, then go west for another.
Go through the grass to the south to find a Nugget. Go to the ledge further
south, past which you’ll find a bridge. Cross it.

Go south to another battle. Go further south to find a fork. Go west to find
some Berries. Go up the staircase nearby, and further north to another battle
and more grass. Go through the grass and upstairs. Defeat the Ruin Maniac up
here, then return to the pond from earlier. Surf across for a Full Heal.
Return to the fork and go east to the next Route.

Head east to find two Trainers, with another further east. Further east from
her, you’ll find some Team Aqua members running off to the south. Ignore them
for now. There will be a building to the north, the Safari Zone. Let’s go in.

The Safari Zone is simply a place where you can catch rare Pokémon. To start,
go into the building and pay $500.

Inside, you simply run around on the grass or water to battle Pokémon. However,
you have a limited number of steps you can take in here before you leave.

To catch Pokémon in a battle, you are not using your party. No, instead, you
simply can get closer or use bait (I think). The former will increase the
Pokémon’s chance of fleeing AND of being captured; the latter does the exact
opposite by reducing both. Now, you probably should throw a Safari Ball first
to see if you get lucky. If not, get closer and throw. However, try not to use
up too many Safari Balls – they, too, are limited.

For the record, a good strategy to save steps is to repeatedly use Sweet
Scent.

Exit whenever you get done.

Go south of the Safari Zone and onto the water. Surf southward onto Route 122.

Go around to the mountain’s south side to find Mt. Pyre, the burial place for
the Pokémon that have died.

Head on upstairs. When you hit 2F, go south for two Trainers. Go south to fight
the Black Belt. Go west for a double battle. Pick up the item nearby, an Ultra
Ball. Go north to find a staircase. Go up.

Battle the two Trainers in front of you, then go west to find a Trainer in
front of the stairs. Pick up the item to the south, a Super Repel. Go upstairs.

On 4F, defeat the Trainer and go up the stairs. Do the same for 5F.

On 6F, you’ll find two Trainers ot the east. Defeat them, then go downstairs
to find TM30, Shadow Ball, a very good Ghost-type move. After grabbing it, go
down the hole to the left.

On 5F, pick up the Lax Incense. This item’s main use is to be held by a male
Wobbuffet when bred with a female Wobbuffet – this allows you to get a Wynaut
in the Egg. Take the southern hole.

On 4F, grab the Sea Incense. When breeding a Marill/Azumarill with another
Marill/Azumarill, let the male hold it and the Egg should contain an Azurill.
Fall down the holes back to 1F. Then go out the western exit.

Go east, through the grass, upstairs, west, through the grass, then down the
stairs. You’ll be able to get TM48, Skill Swap, which swaps the Pokémon’s
abilities for the battle.

Once the fog rolls in, you’ll want to using the Itemfinder a bit more – there
are a few items left around up here, especially on the tombstones. Anyhow,
once the fog rolls in, go and grab the obvious item ball for a Max Potion. I
know the gold tombstone furthest west has an Ultra Ball if you examine it;
the one to its south, near the grass, yields a Max Ether.

Go upstairs to the summit.

Up here, you’ll find several Team Aqua members.

Get the first one to move away from his spot. Defeat him and go along the path.
Examine the southwestern gold tombstone to get a Zinc. On the opposite side is
some grass.

The second guy has nothing special.

The duo have some grass to tehir west/northwest. There is also some to their
east/northeast. In this part (the northeastern grass), you’ll find a little
trail-off of grass aiming south. Examine its last tile to find a Rare Candy.

Proceed to the peak and you’ll find Archie and Maxie, the leaders of Team Aqua
and Magma respectively. They both have stolen the Red and Blue Orbs, the orbs
that balance the land and water. You know what happens when these get taken
apart from each other? All hell will break loose.

After they flee, you’ll receive a Magma Emblem that Team Magma left behind.
It must have some use…

Leave the Mt. Pyre area.

Go south to Route 123.

Head east and Cut down the tree. Take the northern path at the fork to the east
to fight a Trainer; take the middle for a double battle. Return to the main
route and you’ll find a girl near some Berry trees. She’ll give you TM19 (Giga
Drain) if you have a Grass-type Pokémon in your party. Also pick up the Pecha,
Rawst, and Sitrus Berries.

Head west and cross the grass. Fight the two Trainers, then continue west. You
will soon come to a ledge. Go north (don’t cross the ledge) to fight a Trainer
in the grass. Continue north to find a ledge. Jump down it. Go west to find a
side path to the north. Go to its end to find a Trainer.

Go south and over the ledge. Go east to find two more Trainers. Head west to
the ledge and the Revival Herb. Go over the ledge and battle the two Trainers
in the middle. Grab the PP Up and go over the ledge.

Everything else was already covered in the previous Route 123 above. Fly to
Lavaridge.

Let’s begin by first heading to the Pokémon Center to heal, then head onto
Route 112 to the east.

Go down the ledges and up the stairs. Go into the cable car to the east to get
to Mt. Chimney.

| Meditite Lv. 21, Makuhita Lv. 21 |

| Geodude Lv. 21 |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Rather simple. Defeat the Trainers here, then head into the Jagged Pass to the
south.

When you arrive with the Magma Emblem in your backpack, the ground here will
shake, and will continue to shake as you go down the ledges. It will open up a
new entrance into the earth, where that Team Magma member was before we got the
Heat Badge.

Anyhow, go on in.

Follow the path from the entrance. You’ll find three boulders in the shape of a
triangle. Push the bottom boulder west, then push the northwestern west, too.
Go along the path to Grunt. Defeat him and go to the next area.

Go east to a staircase. Head down them to find a Grunt. Defeat him and go west.
Defeat the Grunt you find over here. Go down the staircase to the south to find
two more Grunts. Defeat them and go down the next staircase. Then go down the
smaller staircase and go west. You’ll find a doorway to the north and a
some stairs to the south. Go through the doorway.

Go north and up the stairs to the double battle Grunts. Head north grab the
Full Restore. Go back down the stairs and go east for some more steps. Ascend
them and battle the two Grunts up here. Also grab the nearby Max Elixir. Go
back down the stairs and east to another staircase. Ascend to find a doorway.
Inside, you’ll find a Grunt and a Rare Candy.

Return to the doorway/staircase room from earlier. Go downstairs and you’ll
find a doorway. Go through to find a Grunt all of the way west from the
entrance. Then head south, downstairs, and go east to a doorway. Head inside
to find a Grunt (northeast corner) and PP Max.

Return to the previous room and downstairs to find a Grunt. Head west to find
another doorway. Go north from the doorway to find a Nugget, then go on
through.

As you go inside, head down the staircase in front of you. At the bottom,
head west and along the path to the Grunt. Go north to the next two Grunts.
Continue along the path to an Admin you’ll have to battle.

| Numel is weak to Water (4x), Rock (?), and Ground (?). It is also immune |

| |
| Zubat is weak to Psychic, Rock, Ice, and Electric. It is immune to Ground. |
| |
| Mightyena is weak to Fighting and Bug, and is immune to Psychic. |
| |
| Recommendations: There’s not really anything too specific you need to go |

| may have a bit of trouble with Numel if they have all Grass moves… which |
| they shouldn’t, anyhow. Of course, your Surf Pokémon (if you’ve been |
| raising it) or just a Water-type will work fine. Level should be 36+. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After defeating her, go west to find a Max Revive. Go along the path and you’ll
soon find Maxie.

When you meet him, Maxie will use the Blue Orb, awakening the continental
legendary Pokémon, Groudon. Maxie is planning to tame it for his own nefarious
purposes. Groudon thinks different and just takes off. Maxie then decides it
was all your fault and engages you in battle.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, Maxie will flee.

You should head east from where Maxie was and through the doorway. Pick up the
item on the left, the Escape Rope, and use it.

We still have one problem left — Team Aqua.

Fly to Slateport City.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center, then head northeast. Speak with Captain Stern,
who is being interviewed by Gabby and Ty. He’ll speak that he made a discovery
on Route 128, an underwater cavern that may have had extinct Pokémon in it or
something.

Then Archie will speak over the loudspeakers – they’re taking the sub! You’ll
be taken into the harbor, where you’ll see Archie flee in the submarine; before
doing so, though, he reveals the location of their hideout: Lilycove City.

Stern will speak some more.

Leave and Fly over to Fortree.

Restore your party’s health at the Pokémon Center if you didn’t do so earlier,
then head east to Route 120.

Simply go along the Route as before to Route 121.

Head east to the Safari Zone. Go south of there, grabbing the Zinc near the
stairs as do. Cross the grass and battle the Trainers to the north. Pick up the
Revive nearby, then go north to where you can find the grass. Go west to find a
Trainer and a Carbos nearby. Go back north, then east, then across the grass to
find another Trainer. Go southeast for another two. Use the Itemfinder near
them to find a Max Revive.

Go further east to find the major shopping/port city of Hoenn — Lilycove City.

Got cash?

Anyhow, head on over to the Pokémon Center and heal up. Inside there, you’ll
find one woman that can change based on your Trainer ID. The one about Contests
is asking for certain PokéBlocks; the quizzy one will ask a random question and
give you an item and the chance to make your own if you’re right; the favor
lady will want a certain item, for which, you’ll get a different item.

Anyhow, exit and go northeast to find your rival. Time for our last forced
battle with them. :/

Somewhat disappointing for a final battle.

After winning, you can enter the nearby Dept. Store. On 1F, you can obtain a
Lotto Ticket. In this, you are given five numbers, and then rewards based on
the number of matches with your Pokémon’s ID numbers. The big prize, with a
one-ID chance of 1/100000 (0.00001%), is the Master Ball. Upstairs from here,
you can get a lot of different items. On the top floor, a woman will teach a
Pokémon Substitute.

Exit whenever you get done. South of the Pokémon Center is the Master Rank
Contest House. East of the Dept. Store is the Move Deleter’s house – he will
delete any move in your Pokémon’s moveset, including HM moves. On the path
southeast of the Contest House is a Max Repel. East of the Move Deleter’s
house is an man who will give you TM44 (Rest). The man to the east outside will
give you a random Berry daily.

There is little else to mention here, I think. Head east of the Dept. Store,
down the ledges, east, then Surf up into the cavern.

When you enter the cave, go north and onto land. Defeat the Grunt to your
north, then exit to the northeast.

Oh, I just LOVE these warp panel puzzles.

You’ll find two warps in this room. Take the eastern one and you’ll find a Max
Elixir. Return and take the otehr panel. Head to the middle of the room to find
three Grunts. There is a warp to take near the two Grunts that could’ve been
double battled (#3 and #4 on the above list). THAT WILL BE LATER, JUST NOTE
THIS ONE. Take the southwestern warp.

You’ll find three more warps in this room. Take the east one, then middle, then
west. You’ll find a room with four item balls. The two easternmost ones are
Lv. 30 Electrodes. The westernmost ones are a Nugget and a Master Ball. A
Master Ball is truly the ultimate Pokéball, and the only one that has a 100%
chance rate (aside from the transferring ones seen in Gens. IV and V).

Step into the panel nearby, take the east panel, then middle, then west, then
the one above the middle one. Here, go onto the panel we noted earlier. Go
through the opening here to find a Grunt in this room. Take the warp nearest
the Grunt. Take the Nest Ball here, return through the warp, and take unused
warp here.

Go through the opening in this room to find a Grunt. Defeat him and go through
the doorway to the right. Defeat the Grunts nearby and take the warp nearby.
Time to battle another Admin.

| |
| Mightyena is weak to Fighting and Bug, and is immune to Psychic. |
| |
| Recommendations: Your starter works fine here. However, if you have |
| Sceptile, be wary around Golbat, or just switch to Graveler/Golem. Your |
| level should be Lv. 38+ by now. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, Archie gets away in the sub. *sigh*

Take the lower warp panel in the room. Go through the opening nearby, then
Surf across the water to leave.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center, then head east onto Route 124, heading east.

Head east to find two Trainers. Defeat them and head east to another Trainer,
south to some rocks, west to find a double battle, and east to another Trainer.

Further east is some house. Inside, you’ll be allowed to exchange from colored
shards for evolution stones. You’ll need Dive to collect the shards, though.

Go south to find another Trainer, then east will be Mossdeep City. On the way
into the city, you’ll find a man on the shallow water that can teach
Dynamicpunch (Fighting; 50% accuracy; will confuse target).

Further east is Mossdeep City.

Once you enter the city, head on over to the Pokémon Center to heal. Next,
speak with the man west of the Pokémon Center to get a King’s Rock. This item
will possibly cause the foe to flinch. It also can cause Poliwhirl and
Slowpoke to evolve into Politoed and Slowking, respectively, when held by one
of them during a trade.

Next, get onto the dirt path heading southeast. When possible, go down the
stairs and east to find a Net Ball. Return to the main path and head east to
find Scott. He’ll converse shortly with you.

Enter the house to the right and speak with the girl inside. Fly back to
Fortree and go into the house you earlier sent the Wingull from to get a
Mental Herb.

Return to the Mossdeep Wingull house. Go northwest to find another house, in
which you can obtain the Super Rod.

Okay, head into the Gym.

When you enter the Gym, step onto the yellow switch. Defeat the Trainers and
get onto the nearby warp.

Step onto the switch nearby to move the Trainer so he is facing the other one.
Defeat them in a double battle, then step onto the yellow switch. This should
make an opening to get to the other part of the room. Defeat both Trainers and
go along the new pathway.

You’ll find two warp panels. Warp back to the Gym’s entrance and take the warp
on the left. You’ll then trip the yellow switch. Two Trainers are nearby;
another one is past the purple switch you’ll step on; the final one is south
along the path to the green switch (hit it twice), then go back up to find the
Trainer. Defeat him.

You’ll find a warp nearby. Trip the switch twice and then go into the warp.
Take the panel on your left, then step onto the blue switch. Defeat the two
Trainers. Step on the blue switch twice more and go along the left path. Above
you is a Trainer. Defeat him by himself, or use the orange switch to have a
double battle.

Hit the orange switch thrice. This should move the statues on the other side of
the remove so you can get to the warp. Walk around the statues, battling the
Trainers as you go, and you’ll find a blue switch. Hit it four times to get to
the other blue switch, which you need to hit once. This should move the statue
and Traienr to the right; head in that direction.

Hit the warp to find the room where you used the green switch to move statues.
You’ll have an open path to the next and final warp. Use it to reach the Gym
Leaders.

Leave.

Head into Steven’s house, the one northwest of the Pokémon Center. Inside, you
will be given HM08.

HM08 contains Dive. Dive is a Water-type move that is slightly weaker than
Surf. The user will go underwater on one turn (remaining impervious to all
damage, except from Surf), then strike on the next. Once you obtain the proper
badge, you can use it to go underwater, using those dark spots, like those on
Route 124, outside of battle.

Okay, we are going to be doing quite a bit of legendary hunting. Buy a BUNCH of
Ultra Balls, firstly. Then go and catch a Wailmer and level it up until it
becomes a Wailord. Then find some dark water to the south, Dive down into the
water, and enter the “grass” and try to catch Relicanth. You will also need a
Pokémon with Dig.

FROM HERE ON OUT, I WILL BE LISTING THE PROCESS OF OBTAINING THE THREE
REGI’S. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO THIS – IF YOU WOULD WISH TO SKIP THIS, GO ON DOWN
TO THE MOSSDEEP SECTION A LONG WAYS BELOW. (Just CTRL+F those ~ lines a few
times.)

If you ARE going for them, go south of Mossdeep onto Route 126.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE LONG REGI-CATCHING SECTION BEGINS HERE.

I say — *shot*

When you finally arrive, head into the Pokémon Center and heal up. Go into the
southeasternmost house and speak with the man inside. If you’re lucky, this
man will tell you that he sees Mirage Island. If he does, yay. You can find
this place on Route 130. It is SWARMING with Wynaut and some Leichi Berries.

Anyhow, Surf west onto Route 132.

Begin by taking every possible lowest path. It is that simple through Routes
132 and 133.

Once you hit an nearly-square island, you’ll also hit Route 134. Get on the
southwesternmost tile, go up two, and Surf west. You’ll reach some calm, dark
water. Dive.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Underwater
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Go southward for a while. You’ll soon come to a rock with some dents in it.
This is “visual Braille”. Wonder who’s the jerk who thought THIS up?

Anyhow, the message reads “Go up here.” Resurface via Dive.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Sealed Chamber
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Here, you’ll find ten rocks with these indentations. They read, from left to
right, top to bottom:

“ABC” “DEF” “.”
“GHI” “JKL” “,”
“MNO” “PQRS”
“TUV” “WXYZ”

Those are the Braille translations. On the northern side of the room, on the
wall, you’ll find some Braille reading “Dig here.” Use the move Dig while
facing the center of the tiles to open up a door.

In the second room are six stones, arranged similarly to those you saw on
Routes 105, 111, and 120. They read…

“In this cave we have lived.”
“We owe all to the Pokémon.”
“But, we sealed the Pokémon away.”
“We feared it.”
“Those with courage, those with hope.”
“Open a door. An eternal Pokémon waits.”

On the northern side of the room is another message:

“First comes Wailord. Last comes Relicanth.”

Put Wailord as the lead member of the party, and Relicanth as the sixth.
Examine the Braille again and the three doors blocking the Regis shall open.

Use Dig to leave.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Underwater
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Surf out of the chamber and resurface.

Fly to Lavaridge.

Head east onto Route 112.

Head east to Route 111.

Go into the desert, then as far south as possible. You will soon find a large,
open rock. Go inside.

Okay, that’s done with. Fly back to Mossdeep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE LONG REGI-CATCHING SECTION ENDS HERE.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay, we’re going to do another optional thing, but it is very short.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center, then go down the stairs. Surf north a while
and…

…you will be able to find Shoal Cave. Go inside.

When you enter, go along the eastern path. This man is asking for some Shoal
Shells and Shoal Salt – four of each, in fact. The former can only be found
when the water is high; the latter, only when the water is low. I think it will
change every nine hours, unless the battery has dried, like mine. Mine is
therefore stuck on the low spell.

<= LOW TIDE STUFF =>

If the water is low, go downstairs and north into the next room. Go upstairs,
east at the fork, and then downstairs.

Examine the mound to the east to find a Shoal Salt, and the item to the east is
an Ice Heal. Go up the multiple staircases and up the ladder.

Go west, across the bridge, south, across the bridge to the east, north, and
down the ladder.

Go west and through the doorway.

Go west, north, and east to find some Shoal Salt. Return to the doorway’s
location, go south, and grab the Shoal Salt. You go back through the
doorway.

Head east, grab the Shoal Salt, push the Strength boulder, and go down the
ladder.

Here, in this icy area, you may find Snorunt. Go across the ice heading
south twice. Get on the row above the bottom and go west, north, north, west,
south, south, east, north. Get beside the land rock, go north, west, north,
east, south. Get south of the westernmost rock; head north, east, south, west,
north, west, south, west, north, east, and south. This item is TM07, Hail.

You are now done. Leave when desired.

<= HIGH TIDE STUFF =>

My games’ batteries are very old and have dried out, all amazingly stuck on
low tide. I would appreciate some info – my contact info is in the Legal
section.

Leave when done.

Fly to Mossdeep.

Heal up and we’ll do one more thing – the Abandoned Ship. Fly to Dewford.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Dewford Town
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Heal if needed, then Surf east to Route 107.

Head eastward to Route 108.

As you continue along this Route, you’ll find a ship, an abandoned ship at
that. Go on in.

Defeat the Trainer nearby. Enter the southwestern cabin to find an Escape Rope,
then go into the broken-door cabin to find a Dive Ball. Enter the south-central
door, Surf onto the water, and Dive.

Go west, through the northern doorway, and surface.

Enter the southeastern door. Get one square south of the northeastern corner,
then face north and press A to find the Room 1 Key. Also grab the Water Stone.

Use the Room 1 Key to enter the southwestern door. Grab TM18 (Rain Dance). Get
one square east and north of the western hole. Face west and examine the tile
to get the Room 4 Key.

Enter the northwestern cabin now. Examine the trash can to find the Room 6 Key.

Go into the northeastern cabin. Grab the Luxury Ball. Next, go into the cabin
to the west via the hallway. Get two squares south and west of the southern
trash can, face east, and examine the tile to find the Room 2 Key.

Enter the south-central cabin. Grab the Scanner.

Get onto the water, Dive, go east, and surface. Exit the cabin. Go up the
northwestern staircase.

Go upstairs and into this room. Grab the Storage Key and leave. Return to the
room with the Sailor. Enter the northeastern room to find TM13, Ice Beam.

Nothing else to do but … ABANDON SHIP! 😀

Fly to Slateport City.

Go into the harbor and speak with Captain Stern. As a reward for the Scanner,
you can receive either a Deepseatooth or a Deepseatooth. When a Clamperl holds
one of these during a trade it will evolve into a different Pokémon. The former
causes evolution to Huntail; the latter, Gorebyss.

Fly back to Mossdeep (don’t worry, we’re done).

Heal up if needed, then head south onto Route 127.

Surf west and you’ll find some shallow, lighter water. Atop it is a Zinc.
Grab it and head south to find some shallow water, two Trainers, and some
trees. Defeat the Trainers and pick up the nearby Rare Candy.

Surf east, weaving around the rocks as you go. You’ll find some more shallow
water with three Trainers. Defeat them and head south along the darker water.
You’ll find another Trainer as you go along.

You’ll soon find some shallow water. Defeat the Black Belt nearby, then head
east to find a Trainer near the rocks. Head further east to find a large dark
patch of water. Dive.

Follow the trench south for a while. Eventually, you’ll come across a doorway.

Go along this steamy path, picking up TM26, Earthquake, a VERY powerful Ground

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, there will be a short conversation, then silence falls on the
cavern. The Orb Archie stole at Mt. Pyre will radiate light. The legendary
Pokémon will approach you and then depart. Archie will then receive a call from
one his minions — a severe rainstorm is occurring outside. Archie reveals that
this was the plan, but the minion reveals it to be much worse than previously
expected.

Maxie of Team Magma will then come in, taking you both outside.

Outside, it truly is pouring down, and pouring down hard, complete with
thunder and lightning. Suddenly, the sun comes out from behind the clouds,
radiating mass heat upon the earth. Then the thunderstorms begin again.

Steven then Flies in, telling you to meet him in Sootopolis.

Surf north on Route 127, while checking your Pokénav. When you get level with
Sootopolis, Surf west to it, then Dive into the trench in front of it. Go into
the small cavern and surface to find Sootopolis.

But I do.

Fly to Pacifidlog Town.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Pacifidlog Town
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Surf east onto Route 131.

Continue Surfing east while hugging the northern side. You’ll soon find a path
going north. Go along it, between those rocks, into the “cavern”.

Ummm… It is a fairly linear path. The only thing worth mentioning is that, on
one floor, you’ll end up at two cracks on the floor. Stand on one to fall to
the floor below to continue going.

On the top, you’ll find the legendary Pokémon, Rayquaza. Walk up to him and
wake him up. This will cause an earthquake, weakening the below floors.
Rayquaza then leaves to Sootopolis. Fly there now.

When you arrive, Rayquaza will appear and quell the brawling between the two
legendary rivals, causing the weather to return to normalcy. Speak with
Wallace afterward to get HM07, Waterfall. It is an okay Water-type move that,
after obtaining the next Badge, you’ll be able to use to scale waterfalls out
of battle.

You’ll probably also notice that Archie and Maxie have left. Steven thinks that
they went to Mt. Pyre to return the Red and Blue Orbs.

Anyhow, head up to the Pokémon Center (east coast). Heal. While there, be sure
to note the person teaching Double-Edge (high-power Normal move, but has recoil
damage).

West coast yields the PokéMart. Go upstairs to the top. Go left and into the
house to find a guy that gives TM31, Brick Break, a very decent Fighting-type
move. Return to the Gym and Surf west to find a woman who gives you two
(usually rare) Berries daily.

Heal up and head into the eighth, and final, Gym.

And so, we have all eight Gym Badges. Only one thing is left: the Pokémon
League.

Exit the Gym.

So, we have all eight Gym Badges. You are ready for the Elite Four challenge.
This walkthrough will close soon. But first, I want to show a bit in Meteor
Falls, a place where you might find something you deem useful.

Fly to Fallarbor.

Head west to Route 114.

Head west, go south across the bridge and go through the grass, heading south,
to find some stairs. Go along their path to Meteor Falls.

Go on over to the bridge, then north. Surf onto the water, then go up the
Waterfall. Go north and through the door.

Go down the ladder and north to find another. Go up and you’ll find an old
couple. Defeat them and continue up the stairs to the east to find the
ever-rare Dragon Tamer. Defeat him and go down the ledges while hugging the
left side. Go down the ladder.

Go and Surf on the water. You’ll soon find a doorway. Go through to find the
Secret Room.

Here, you can find one of the rarer Pokémon of the game, Bagon. Bagon is one of
a very few Dragon types in the whole series. It will evolve at Lv. 30 into
Shellgon, and at Lv. 50 into the Hoenn Dragonite, Salamence. It can learn many
types of moves, and is _WELL_ worth raising.

You can also cross the water to find TM02, Dragon Claw, a good starting move
for any Dragon type.

Leave the cave when you’re done.

Fly to Mossdeep.

Heal, then go south onto Route 127.

Simply head south while hugging the east side.

While hugging the east side some more, you’ll soon some to a branch of water
heading east. Go along it and continue in a generally-eastward direction to
soon come to a waterfall. Climb up it and you’ll arrive in Ever Grande City.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Ever Grande City (South)
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Head east to find the Pokémon Center. Heal up here.

Next, you’ll probably want to Fly to Lilycove to stock up on supplies. Why?
Well, if you head north and into the cavern, you’ll find the last trial before
all those who wish to challenge the Pokémon League, Victory Road.

Head inside when ready.

<= 1F =>

Once you enter Victory Road, head north, upstairs, and across the bridge. You
then get to fight Wally…

After finish off Wally, go north for a battle.

Return across the bridge and go downstairs. Go west and north, then further
along the path to a battle. Return to where you fought the first Trainer and
head downstairs.

<= B1F =>

Follow the path to a Strength boulder. When you hit it, ignore it and head down
the path to the left. You’ll find another boulder. Push it west. Take this
path to the first Strength boulder. Push the boulder east and head along the
southbound path.

Continue along to find some Rock Smash rocks and Strength boulders. Destroy
the rocks. Push the western boulder to the south. Push the other one to the
north. Go along the newly-found path to a Trainer. Go along the path and
upstairs.

Cross the bridge to your east and head downstairs. Climb up the ladder.

<= 1F =>

Grab the PP Up and return downstairs.

<= B1F =>

Jump over the ledge to the west. Go north to find a Trainer, then go back south
to find a ladder. Go down.

<= B2F =>

Go north for a battle. Then Surf onto the water. Get on the ledge nearby and go
upstairs. Follow the path to an open area. You can go either up or down. Head
up to find a ladder. Climb.

<= B1F =>

Grab TM29 (Psychic) and descend the ladder.

<= B2F =>

Continue south to find another Trainer, then west for another two. Go across
the nearby bridge to find a Trainer. Go further along to the water. Surf
acorss to find a ledge with a Trainer and an item (Full Heal). Return to the
water and Waterfall on the western waterfall. Continue Surfing eastward and
jump on the ledge you come across. Ascend the ladder.

<= B1F =>

Go west and defeat the Trainers. Go west and around the corner for another
Trainer. Go back around the corner and south to find two Rock Smash rocks and
two Strength boulders. Smash the rock, push the boulder south, and break the
other rock. Go along the path to find a ladder. Ascend it.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

And so, you have arrived. Head north into the main building.

Here, you’ll find a Pokémon Center on the west side, and the PokéMart on the
eastern. You’ll want to heal first.

Next, head over to the PokéMart. I suggest having stocks of the following:

– Hyper Potion x20
– Max Potion x10 <— Only if your Pokémon have 250+ HP.
– Full Restore x15
– Revive x15

Now, we also want to construct our team for the Elite Four challenge. I suggest
this team, to which I’ll make many references during the strategies, with the
usual references offered in the parentheses.

– Your starter (Variable)
– Regice (By Name)
– Ninetales/Torkoal/Camerupt (Fire type)
– Sableye/Absol (Ghost/Dark, Dark type)
– Registeel (By Name)
– Salamence (with varying move types) (Depends on moveset)
– Pokémon Levels should be 55+.

Once you are ready, speak with the men in front of the doorway. They will check
your Badges and then let on through.

“Trainer! Believe in yourself and go forth!”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Elite Four Headquarters (Ever Grande City (North))
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

First up is Sydney, the master of Dark type.
___________________________
| BOSS: Elite Four Sidney \
|____________________________\________________________________________________
| Pokémon: Mightyena (Lv. 46) Dark |
| Crawdaunt (Lv. 48) Dark/Water |
| Shiftry (Lv. 48) Dark/Grass |
| Cacturne (Lv. 46) Dark/Grass |
| Absol (Lv. 49) Dark |
|=============================================================================|
| Mightyena is weak to Bug and Fighting. It is immune to Psychic. It can use |
| Crunch (Dark) and Take Down (Normal) to damage you. |
| |
| Crawdaunt is weak to Bug, Fighting, Electric, and Grass. It is immune to |
| Psychic. It can use Surf (Water), Crunch (Dark), and Slash (Normal) for |
| damage. |
| |
| Shiftry is weak to Bug (4x), Fighting, Fire, Flying, Ice, and Poison. It |
| is immune to Psychic. It can use Extrasensory (Psychic) and Fake Out |
| (Normal; first turn only) to damage you. |
| |
| Cacturne is weak to Bug (4x), Fighting, Fire, Ice, Flying, and Poison. It |
| is immune to Psychic. It can use Faint Attack (Dark) and Needle Arm |
| (I think Grass?) to damage you. |
| |
| Absol is weak to Fighting and Bug. It is immune to Psychic. It can use |
| Slash (Normal) and Aerial Ace (Flying; no-miss) for some damage. |
| |
| Recommendations: If you have something with a Fighting/Bug move that is |
| not a Psychic or Ghost type, use that. Otherwise, you’ll probably want to |
| use Registeel. FYI: your Fire type is advantageous over Shiftry and |
| Cacturne; your starter may be like that (if so, it pwns all) or have an |
| advantage over Crawdaunt. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Head into the next room, where you’ll find the ghastly (or should I say
Gastly?) Phoebe.
___________________________
| BOSS: Elite Four Phoebe \
|____________________________\________________________________________________
| Pokémon: Dusclops (Lv. 48) Ghost |
| Banette (Lv. 49) Ghost |
| Sableye (Lv. 50) Ghost/Dark |
| Banette (Lv. 49) Ghost |
| Dusclops (Lv. 51) Ghost |
|=============================================================================|
| Both Dusclops are weak to Ghost and Dark. They’re immune to Normal and |
| Fighting. The Lv. 48 one can use Curse and Shadow Punch (Ghost) for damage |
| and Confuse Ray for confusion. The Lv. 51 Dusclops can use Ice Beam (Ice), |
| Earthquake (Ground), Shadow Ball (Ghost), and Confuse Ray. |
| |
| Both Banette are weak to Ghost and Dark. They’re immune to Fighting and |
| Normal. One can use Faint Attack (Dark), Shadow Ball (Ghost), Spite (lose |
| PP), and Will-O-Wisp (Burns). The other can use Psychic, Shadow Ball |
| (Ghost), Toxic (badly Poisons), and Skill Swap (swaps abilities). |
| |
| The Sableye lacks all weakness. It is immune to Psychic, Fighting, and |
| Normal. It can use Psychic, Shadow Ball (Ghost), Faint Attack (Dark), and |
| Attract (1:1 odds of attacking/not attacking). |
| |
| Recommendations: Sableye for all, actually. Registeel makes decent |
| back-up (the MANY resistances), except against the Lv. 51 Dusclops. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Go into the next room (you’ll probably want to heal a little), in which you’ll
find the frigid Glacia.
___________________________
| BOSS: Elite Four Glacia \

| Pokémon: Glalie (Lv. 50) Ice |
| Sealeo (Lv. 50) Ice/Water |

| Walrein (Lv. 53) Ice/Water |
| Glalie (Lv. 52) Ice |
|=============================================================================|

| those moves, as well as Shadow Ball (Ghost). |
| |

| of Paralysis), and Hail. The other can use Dive (Water; two-turn), Hail, |
| Blizzard (Ice), and Attract. |
| |
| Walrein is weak to Fighting, Grass, Rock, and Electric. It can use Surf |
| (Water), Blizzard (Ice), Body Slam (Normal; 30% chance of Paralysis), and |
| Sheer Cold (30% chance of a OHKO). |
| |
| Recommendations: |
| ~ Registeel -> Glalie |
| ~ Something with a Fighting/Electric move (such as Registeel with Zap |
| Cannon) for the rest. Otherwise, use Sableye. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Further on, in the next room, you’ll find the Dragon user, Drake.
__________________________
| BOSS: Elite Four Drake \
|___________________________\_________________________________________________
| Pokémon: Shelgon (Lv. 52) Dragon |
| Flygon (Lv. 53) Dragon/Ground |
| Kingdra (Lv. 53) Water/Ground |

| It can use Fly (Flying; two-turn), Flamethrower (Fire), Dragon Claw |
| (Dragon), and Crunch (Dark) to damage you. |
| |
| Recommendations: Regice, Registeel, or Sableye. Preferences decline as I |
| go from left to right. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After this battle, heal your Pokémon to the fullest of your ability. Go into
the next and final lengthy staircase to find none other than Steven Stone, the
champion of the Elite Four, at the end, awaiting your challenge.
__________________________
| BOSS: Champion Wallace \
|___________________________\_________________________________________________
| Pokémon: Wailord (Lv. 57) Water |
| Ludicolo (Lv. 56) Water/Grass |

| Surf and Earthquake for damaging purposes. |
| |
| Milotic is weak to Grass and Electric. It knows Ice Beam, Surf, Toxic, and |
| Recover. |
| |
| Recommendations: |
| ~ Grass Starter or Registeel with Zap Cannon -> Wailord, Milotic |
| ~ Registeel with Zap Cannon -> Tentacruel, Gyarados |
| ~ Grass Starter -> Whiscash |
| ~ Salamence/Skarmory -> Ludicolo |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, your rival will come in with some unnecessary information
about Wallace you could use to beat him, which you have done, and therefore,
this info is never disclosed. :/

Professor Birch will then come in to examine your Pokédex. Steven will then
take you into the next room to register you and your current team into the
Hall of Fame.

And so, the credits roll…

(BTW, reload your saved file and head downstairs to receive the S.S. Ticket.)

===============================================================================
The Other Fossil
===============================================================================

Remember way-back-when, about half-way through the game, when we found the
Claw and Root Fossils within the Mirage Tower? Remember how one disappeared?
After the Elite Four, we can get it.

Fly to Fallarbor.

Head west to Route 114.

Head into the first house on the Route. You’ll find an opening on the north
side of hte area. Go through to find the Desert Underpass.

Head all of the way east to the edge of the room to find the Fossil from
earlier you did not grab.

As with the other one, you’ll need to bring it to the second floor of the Devon
Corp. in Rustboro City.

===============================================================================
More to the Safari Zone
===============================================================================

Okay, after finishing the Elite Four, some new Pokémon are available in two new
areas to the Safari Zone. I’ll simply list the updated data.

===============================================================================
The Regi’s
===============================================================================

Fly to Mossdeep City.

Buy a BUNCH of Ultra Balls. Go catch a Wailmer and level it into a Wailmer.
Then find some dark water to the south, Dive down into the water, and enter the
“grass” and try to catch Relicanth. You will also need a Pokémon with Dig, as
well a few HMs for the quest in general.

Leave to the south.

South, I say!

South, I say! Then west.

I say “West”!

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Pacifidlog Town
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

I say — *shot*

Anyhow, Surf west onto Route 132.

Begin by taking every possible lowest path. It is that simple through Routes
132 and 133.

Once you hit an nearly-square island, you’ll also hit Route 134. Get on the
southwesternmost tile, go up two, and Surf west. You’ll reach some calm, dark
water. Dive.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Underwater
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Go southward for a while. You’ll soon come to a rock with some dents in it.
This is “visual Braille”. Wonder who’s the jerk who thought THIS up?

Anyhow, the message reads “Go up here.” Resurface via Dive.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Sealed Chamber
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Here, you’ll find ten rocks with these indentations. They read, from left to
right, top to bottom:

“ABC” “DEF” “.”
“GHI” “JKL” “,”
“MNO” “PQRS”
“TUV” “WXYZ”

In the second room are six stones, arranged similarly to those you saw on
Routes 105, 111, and 120. They read…

On the northern side of the room is another message:

“First comes Wailord. Last comes Relicanth.”

Put Wailord as the lead member of the party, and Relicanth as the sixth.
Examine the Braille again and the three doors blocking the Regis shall open.

Use Dig to leave.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Underwater
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Surf out of the chamber and resurface.

Fly to Lavaridge.

Head east onto Route 112.

Head east to Route 111.

Go into the desert, then as far south as possible. You will soon find a large,
open rock. Go inside.

This Braille in this room says…

“Left, left, down, down. Then use Rock Smash.”

Once you’re done here, leave.

Fly to Petalburg.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Petalburg City
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Head west to Route 104.

Let’s head south to Route 105.

Continue south and really hug the west side. You’ll then eventually come to an
island. Cross it and head west and north to the Island Cave. Go inside.

For this puzzle, make a lap around the room, sticking to the walls at all
times. After finishing a lap in respect to the Braille, a door will open. Go
through.

After the battle, leave.

Fly to Lilycove.

West, I say!

*is shot again*

West some more.

Head west, then west at the fork, then north. You’ll find another rock
configuration similar to the previous two, save that is in a grassy setting. Go
into the cave.

Exmaine the Braille, then head to the very center of the room. Use Flash and a
door will open. Enter the room.

After the battle, leave.

===============================================================================
Latias and Latios
===============================================================================

This happens after beating the Elite Four once.

Firstly, go to your house in Littleroot. Examining the TV will let you know
that a “bzzt”-colored Pokémon is flying around Hoenn. Your mom will ask what
color it was. Tell her – it determines whether you find Latias or Latios.

This Pokémon is known as a roaming Pokémon. It has no specific Route it is
found upon. This Pokémon, Latias or Latios (Red/Blue colors, respectively),
actually change Routes every time you do. Therefore, you’ll want to get lucky
by getting in a city, which has a Route nearby, which has the Lati’s Route
next to it.

Once this happens (check the Pokédex to make sure, if you’ve seen the Pokémon
already), go into the grass on the Route. You’ll eventually find the Lati.

Now, much like the Beast trio (G/S/C/FR/LG/HG/SS), the Spirit trio (D/P/Pt),
and the Storm duo (B/W), this Pokémon will run away as soon as it can. How
does one prevent this? Try doing the battle with a Wynaut/Wobbuffet, as their
ability prevents leaving, as does the move Mean Look.

If this is unavailable to you, you can always use the Master Ball, which is
the preferable use for it.

If that is not good for you either, you’ll probably want to use the always-good
False Swipe-plus-Paralysis combo with Ultra Balls, or Timer Balls if the battle
gets THAT long. Keep in mind both Latias and Latios are of the Dragon/Psychic
type.

===============================================================================
Kyogre
===============================================================================

First, Fly to Fortree City. (After finishing the Elite Four.)

Exit to the west onto Route 119.

Go south, across the bridge, and into the Weather Institute. Inside, go to the
second floor and speak with the scientist near the computer. He’ll tell you
where some heavy rainfall is. Wherever this happens, go there to find a patch
of dark water. You’ll need to Dive there.

The location is known to be at one of these places:

– Route 105 (south of the Island Cave)
– Route 105 (east of the largest island with Trainers)
– Route 125 (northwest of Shoal Cave (north-northwest of Mossdeep))
– Route 127 (north of the island with the three Fishermen)
– Route 127 (south of the island with the three Fishermen)
– Route 129 (southeastern corner)
– Route 129 (center-ish part of the Route, near a Swimmer)

When you Dive down, go into the cavern and across the water to another cave
entrance. Save and prepare to battle Kyogre. (Just use the False Swipe-Paralyze
strategy.)

===============================================================================
Groudon
===============================================================================

First, Fly to Fortree City. (After finishing the Elite Four.)

Exit to the west onto Route 119.

Go south, across the bridge, and into the Weather Institute. Inside, go to the
second floor and speak with the scientist near the computer. He’ll tell you
where a severe drought is. Wherever this happens, go there to find Terra Cave.

The location is known to be at one of these places:

– Route 114 (top of the northwestern waterfall)
– Route 114 (southern portion, near Meteor Falls)
– Route 115 (atop the northernmost stairs)
– Route 115 (atop a slope further north of there (needs Mach Bike))
– Route 116 (top of the stairs and east of the Rusturf Tunnel)
– Route 116 (top of the stairs in the small area where you found Blackglasses)
– Route 118 (west of the water)
– Route 118 (east of the water, near Route 119)

When you reach the cavern, go on inside. Save and head up to Groudon. Good
luck.

===============================================================================
Rayquaza
===============================================================================

I think you’ll need to first finish the Elite Four. Once you do, Fly to
Pacifidlog Town, but only after obtaining the MACH Bike.

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Pacifidlog Town
)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Surf east onto Route 131.

Continue Surfing east while hugging the northern side. You’ll soon find a path
going north. Go along it, between those rocks, into the “cavern”.

<= Outside =>

Begin by going through the doorways to the actual tower.

<= 1F =>

Head to the northeastern corner.

<= 2F =>

You’ll find a series of cracks on the floor to the south. If you stay on them
too long, you’ll fall to the previous floor. To prevent this, you’ll need to
go across FAST, like Mach Bike fast.

When you find the two rows of cracks, line yourself up so you WON’T hit the
rock on the right (remember, hitting that = stop. Stop = fall.) and sweep
yourself to the far southern side. From the very bottom row of tiles, go west
to the wall.

With the next configuration, go nort using the third column of tiles, third
from the left. Then go through the doorway.

<= 3F =>

Proceed to the northeastern corner.

<= 4F =>

First set of cracks: Use the leftmost row and head south.
Second set of cracks: This is more complicated. You’ll want to take the middle
row. When you’re riding, notice the rock. That single
empty tile will NOT provide enough room for full speed
(ie. hit a crack, you fall). Therefore, before hitting
the rock, but when you ARE on the empty tile, head north
and bump into the rock wall.
Third set of cracks: Now, you are in a weird position. The point is that you
actually do want to fall through the cracks, but only the
two that are next to each other. It’ll take some timing.

<= 3F =>

Go through the doorway.

<= 4F =>

Go through the doorway.

<= 5F =>

Go through the doorway.

<= 6F/Outside =>

Here, I found something odd. Using a walk-thru-walls cheat, and then landing on
one of the holes up here you cannot normally reach, you’ll hit the entrance
doorway of the below floor. No matter which one you use. O_o

Another, also using the WTW cheat, is when you walk on the blue tiles (supposed
to be the sky), it acts like the rain puddles you find east of Fortree. O_O

Anyhow, continue north to find none other than Rayquaza. SAVE and begin the
battle.
_______________________________
| Special Encounter: Rayquaza \
|________________________________\____________________________________________
| Level: Level 70. |
| Type : Dragon/Flying. |
| Moves: – Fly |
| – Rest |
| – Extremespeed |
| – Outrage |
|=============================================================================|
| Rayquaza is weak to Ice (4x), Dragon, and Rock. It is immune to Ground. |
| It resists Fire, Water, Grass, and Electric. It has an advantage over |
| Dragon, Grass, Bug, and Fighting. |
| |
| There are several ways to go about this. You should try damaging it as |
| little as possible each turn, until you think the next move will cause a |
| KO. Next, put a non-damaging status on it (Paralysis or Sleep). You can |
| fire Ultra Balls are it. The only way to make it better, aside from |
| wasting the Master Ball, is to use False Swipe. |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

===============================================================================
Beldum
===============================================================================

Fly to Mossdeep.

Head into the northwesternmost house, Steven’s house. After beating the Elite
Four, you’ll find a Pokéball here. Inside it, you’ll find a Level 5 Beldum,
which cannot be found anywhere else.

Beldum is of the Steel/Psychic type. It evolves at Lv. 20 into Metang, and
again at Lv. 45 into Metagross.

===============================================================================
New Mauville
===============================================================================

This can be done after obtaining five Badges. Head to Mauville City.
