We pick up where the other walkthrough left off - us being dropped off just outside Suner Town in the Lauren region. 


SUNER TOWN - "A Place full of Sunlight, with very beautiful Beaches."

==========


Places of Interest

..................

Yellow's House


In the middle of town we meet Prof. Ellie. She's waiting for another character - her nephew Yellow, who has also started his journey through this region. Meet the new Rival everybody :) is he going to be bothering us with only 2 Pokemon in his team like the previous rivals? Prof. Ellie tells us that her lab is in another town called Carmine Town. Then she and Yellow leave.


It's a small town, not much. In the house on the left, speak to the blonde woman to receive Mystic Water. 


Yellow's house is the north one. His mom Dara is home, proud of her son. 


Leave town via the north exit.


ROUTE 501

Head over to the Lab. We meet up with Prof. Ellie, Yellow and new character Pearl, Ellie's niece. Another Rival. We are then allowed to pick a Starter Pokemon given that we're in a new region and all:

Snivy, Tepig and Oshawott. Going to the right leads to the backyard, where you'll see some Pokemon out and about. 


If you try to exit town via the west, you're stopped by the man standing outside the Lab, going on about we should avoid dangerous routes like that one. Okay...so east we go. 


ROUTE 507

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Swellow, Shroomish, Glameow, Tranquill, Buneary


According to the sign post we find, further east is Flamerny City.


Beauty Katya (Lv44 Ivysaur) Prize: P3520


Camper Paulo (Lv44 Marowak) Prize: P704


To the right from him is a Super Potion. Standing above on a ledge is Pearl. Circle round to speak with her. 


Lass Catarina (Lv43 Hypno) Prize: P688


There's a Luxury Ball a few steps north from her. Carry on to meet Pearl. She's looking for strong Pokemon...but she's cool battling us with what she currently has. 


>>RIVAL BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Pearl (Lv63 Arcanine, Lv65 Sceptile) Prize: P1300


So ends our progress along this portion of Route 507. We go back to town and finally move west. 


ROUTE 502

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Tranquill, Glameow, Chatot, Swellow


According to the sign post, further west is Rocavely City. No ledge blocking our way this time :) 


Youngster Gabriel (Lv45 Muk) Prize: P720


The item near him is a Revive. 


Blackbelt Jonas (Lv46 Poliwrath) Prize: [sorry, forgot to note]


South from him is TM21 (Frustration).


PokeRanger Sara (Lv45 Pachirisu) Prize: P2160


As we head up the steps, guess who we bump into - Silver! That makes Rival #3 here? My favourite rival out of all the rivals from the official games. Had the best Encounter theme and maybe best (Rival) Battle theme also..? He's here and this is probably the first of many battles we'll have against him. 


>>RIVAL BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Silver (Lv65 Typhlosion, Meganium, Feraligatr) Prize: P1300


After he leaves, get that Ultra Ball and continue west. 


Bug Catcher Cristian (Lv46 Ariados) Prize: P736


That is a Super Potion near him. Only a few steps and we step into town.

Mining town. Let's look around. In the house next door to the PokeCenter, speak to the Miner to get TM49 (Rock Slide). Having played the game this far I have to say that I wish some of the TMs weren't changed, because it has meant that those moves which certain Pokemon could learn can't be learned in this game e.g. Ice Smash (Brick Break) and Glide (Aerial Ace). Will this continue with Rock Slide?


In the house to the south, near the Miner and his Aron, speak to the Hiker to get Metal Powder. The theme of rocking into a Gym city and not finding the Gym Leader at their Gym continues in this new region - blocking this Gym is a Miner who tells us that Rochelle is at the Rocavely Mines, west of town. 


North of town is the entrance into Mt. Lauren. 


Nothing going on at the Refinery, yet.


At the Rocavely Mines site, speak to the Miner to the left of the crane to get the Predator Fossil (Aerodactyl). In the area below we'll find Rochelle busy at work. When she's done she'll go to the Refinery. There's a Spiral Fossil (Omanyte) to the left from her. 


At the Refinery, talk to Rochelle again so we can remind her to get back to the Gym. We get a Yes/No question, say No to make her leave. 


ROCAVELY CITY Gym

-----------------


...which looks exactly like the one in Groment City. Huh. Oh, maybe they're...Sister Gyms..?


Miner Stevan (Lv47 Marowak) Prize: P564


Miner Sergio (Lv48 Rhydon) Prize: P576


Miner Jorge (Lv48 Steelix) Prize: P576


>>GYM BATTLE<<

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


Leader Rochelle (Lv64 Armaldo, Bastiodon, Aerodactyl)

Prizes: P1280 + Mineral Badge (Use of TM39 Rock Climb) + TM39


There have been some amazing HMs introduced to us in the Pokemon games over the years, which make for great battle moves like Surf, Rock Smash, Strength, Fly, Dive and Waterfall...maybe Cut on a good day. As for the others...they could've been Key Items that players get in the games instead and perform the same functions. I'm looking at you Flash and Rock Climb /==./ unfortunate how TMs are not reusable in this game and here we get a major TM. What happened, creator?


Well, so now the mystery of those spots where Rock Climb is needed has been solved. Onwards into Mt. Lauren. Bring a Pokemon that has learned Rock Climb. 


MT. LAUREN

Lass Carolina (Lv47 Gastrodon) Prize: P752


Hiker Armando (Lv48 Onix) Prize: P1920


Near the Youngster above from Armando is TM23 (Iron Tail) and the exit up ahead. 


Still on the mountain. Near the blonde woman who tells us about the next city, Skyner City, is an Ultra Ball. North from her is an entrance back into the mountain...but standing by the entrance is Yellow. Cue theme. Battle #1. 


>>RIVAL BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Yellow (Lv65 Luxray, Lv67 Blaziken) Prize: P1340


Curious about how he got here with only 2 Pokemon...maybe Blaziken can learn Rock Climb. Off he goes and in we go.

I imagine the view up here must be majestic :) we are in the city of Flying-type Pokemon. When you're ready, let's hit the Gym.


SKYNER CITY Gym

---------------


In this Gym there are those arrow slide panels that everyone knows and loves :) simple to navigate through. Wait...are those SPIKES down below?? Explains why the Gym Trainers are already on their Pokemon haha those spikes remind me of a castle stage from one of the GBA Mario RPGs. Superstar Saga perhaps? Or the one featuring Baby Mario & Luigi?


Flyer Stefany (Lv49 Skarmory) Prize: P1960


From her, slide left. 


Flyer Lyedson (Lv49 Altaria) Prize: P1960


Slide up. 


Flyer Vanessa (Lv47 Skarmory) Prize: P1880


To fight the last Gym Trainer you have to slide all the way up, taking you to the area where Gym Leader Rebecca is, and then sliding back down. 


Flyer John (Lv49 Altaria) Prize: P1960


Then you'll have to make your way back to Rebecca. Sacrifices, eh? 


>>GYM BATTLE<<

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


Leader Rebecca (Lv64 Staraptor, Lv65 Honchkrow, Lv66 Salamence)

Prizes: P1320 + Sky Badge (Use of TM40 Glide) + TM40 + Pilot License


A Pilot License? If any of you reading this played a little game from back in the day called Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas...remember them flying missions that we had to do in order to get the license? Good times :) NOT. Anyway, in this game the license allows us to ride Flying-type Pokemon anywhere. Not bad. Rebecca talks about Glide a.k.a Aerial Ace in another life like its Fly, even though Fly works just fine even in this region. But using the Pilot License is unique and fun, the Pokemon you ride is Skarmory (I don't have it in my traveling party at the moment, so I assume it is the default Pokemon). 


We're done here. Exit is to the east. Time to make use of that license. Bring along a Pokemon that learned to Glide.


ROUTE 504

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Staravia, Swablu


Use the Pilot License and make your way to the edge of the path. The game will ask you to use Glide and one of your Pokemon will use Glide and up into the air we go! Flying among the clouds like we're friggin 5 Star pilots :) this is neat. Carry on east. 


Flyer Sabrina (Lv48 Skarmory) Prize: P1920


Flyer Jose (Lv50 Altaria) Prize: P2000


Just to the north from him, on a cloud, is a pair of Blackglasses. 


Flyer Mika (Lv50 Skarmory) Prize: P2000


Flyer Hiago (Lv50 Altaria) Prize: P2000


Eventually we reach the edge of the other side. Follow the path south, pick up that Nest Ball you'll find in the corner to the left and then continue east. According to the sign post we see, next stop is Lendyn Town. 


That item near the Bug Catcher is a Super Potion. A few steps from there is...


LENDYN TOWN - "A Calm & Tranquil Village."

In the first house we reach on our way into town, speak to the woman inside to get a Rotom. 


There are 2 other ways to leave town, north and east. North leads to Route 511...

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Luxio, Kecleon, Vullaby, Swellow, Breloom


According to the sign post, further north is Noormeak City.


Hiker Maikon (Lv49 Golem) Prize: P1960


Just up ahead from Maikon, in the left corner is a Full Restore. 


PokeRanger Melissa Prize: P2448

(Lv49 Lopunny, Lv51 Starmie, Lv50 Electabuzz, Purugly)


A deadend up ahead in the form of ledges. But you do find an Ultra Ball though haha, consolation prize?


...and then east is blocked by a trio of goons - Team Steam variety goons. These clowns again? When you approach them, one says they should hurry to a place called Kosaka City, which beyond a lake that's ahead, or else God of War/Team Steam Leader Kratos will be angry with them. Can't say I blame them for hurrying. They leave, giving us access to Route 505. 


Route 505

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Grumpig, Spoink, Tranquill, Pidgeotto


That item you see right away is a Super Potion. Follow the path for a few steps before reaching the shore of the lake mentioned by that Team Steam grunt - Sunsun Lake.

The city of Fighting-type Pokemon. Let's have a look around. 


In the first house reached on the way in, speak to the Blackbelt guy to get a Tyrogue. 


In the house next door to the PokeCenter, there's a Blackbelt guy there looking to trade his Machoke for a Medicham. 


Can't enter the Sky Tower yet, there's a guard blocking the entrance. But no nobody is blocking the Gym entrance so why don't we go there? Well, just as we try to walk in, out walks the Gym Leader Lucy who just so happens to be on her way to the Sky Tower because some crazy people in white are there and she has to go stop them. What a coincidence, we were just there. Another Gym challenge delayed. 


SKY TOWER

---------


Given that there are statues of Giratina in the lobby of the tower, no surprise Team Steam is here causing trouble. They sure do love their legends :) can't take that away from them - persistence. 


1st Floor

.........


Team Steam Grunt (Lv48 Dusclops x2) Prize: P960


Team Steam Grunt (Lv49 Garchomp, Roselia) Prize: P980


Team Steam Grunt (Lv49 Dusclops, Lv50 Dusclops) Prize: P1000


We find Lucy here..."training" so she can take on the grunts. I say "training" because she's just running back and forth in the same place. Unbelievable. And she's the Gym Leader here? Come on Lucy. 


Team Steam Grunt (Lv48 Bagon, Krokorok, Lv50 Altaria) Prize: P1000


2nd Floor

.........


We find Kratos and 2 other grunts here, looking to catch Rayquaza (maybe there weren't any Rayquaza statues left in stock). We can't let that happen. 


>>BOSS BATTLE<<

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


Steam Leader Kratos Prize: P5200

(Lv62 Altaria, Lv65 Dusknoir, Salamence)


Despite losing, Kratos won't give up and before he can attempt to catch Rayquaza, someone appears and puts a stop to this plan with one Dragon Claw from his Garchomp. Team Steam disappear. This person is the Lauren region's Champion Blake and he won't be having any of Team Steam's nonsense going on in this region. Rayquaza takes this chance to exit the building and Blake leaves too. 


So we're done here, right? Not yet, now we have to leave the Sky Tower...and no, not via Escape Rope haha if only. Back on the 1st Floor, a couple of new Trainers have popped up to keep us a little busy. Female versions of those Sages from the Sprout Tower. 


Lady Jessica (Lv50 Purugly) Prize: P10000


Lady Melony (Lv51 Mismagius) Prize: P10200


Are these the richest Trainers in the game so far?? Good grief ladies :) We leave the Sky Tower and can now visit the Gym. Right?


Who steps out of the Gym this time but Silver, here for battle #2. 


>>RIVAL BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Silver Prize: P1340

(Lv64 Charizard, Lv65 Aggron, Lv67 Feraligatr)


Where did Typhlosion and Meganium go, chief? This game and having Rivals who don't have full teams but somehow manage to get around and be so uninspiring...I don't know. 


KOSAKA CITY Gym

---------------


Props for looking like an actual gym haha. Here we go. 


Blackbelt Gray Prize: P1664

(Lv51 Hitmonlee, Lv50 Hitmonchan, Lv52 Machoke x2)


Blackbelt Brucily (Lv52 Poliwrath, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee) Prize: P1664


Blackbelt Chuck (Lv51 Hitmontop, Lv52 Heracross) Prize: P1664


Blackbelt Henrique Prize: P1664

(Lv50 Medicham, Lv52 Hitmontop, Lv51 Hitmonlee)


Then we reach Lucy. At least this time she done "training" :)


>>GYM BATTLE<<

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


Leader Lucy (Lv66 Poliwrath, Lv67 Lucario, Lv68 Machamp)

Prize: P1360 + Force Badge + (Use of TM31 Ice Smash) + TM31


She tells us that Ice Smash will be useful to bust up small blocks of ice. Great.  


We're done here. Going north leads to Route 508...going east leads to Route 509 and going south leads to Route 506. The correct path is south, but for the curious ones among you...


ROUTE 508

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Snorlax, Purugly, Glameow


According to the sign post, further north is Merydian City. Next to the sign is a Super Potion. With all these Super Potions we keep finding around, you gotta be sure that someone's walking with their Bag wide open. Probably a bottom side pocket. 


Beauty Maira (Lv52 Medicham, Scrafty) Prize: P4160


Lass Carla (Lv52 Roselia, Lv53 Manectric) Prize: P848


Blocking the way north are some rotten tree stumps and of course we'll need a specific TM to cut through them (sorry, Cut, not you :/ ). 


ROUTE 509

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Skorupi, Luxio, Absol, Nidoran(M), Stunky


To the right from the blonde woman is a Full Heal. Continue south. The sign post found there says further east is Ricyan City. 


CoolTrainer Vitor (Lv53 Roselia, Lv35 Camerupt) Prize: P1680


Beauty Sabrina (Lv53 Wailmer, Wailord) Prize: P4240


Just below from her is TM36 (Sludge Bomb). 


Blocking the way east are huge snow-covered rocks. Again, why TMs are not reusable in this game is one thing I don't understand. 


Double deadends /==./ incredible. South!


ROUTE 506

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Growlithe, Luxio, Vulpix, Houndour, Absol


The sign post says further south is a place we couldn't get to before, Flamerny City. In the bottom right corner from the sign is an Ultra Ball. Don't jump down that ledge, go to the left of the sign and then continue south. 


Lass Carla (Lv51 Breloom, Purugly) Prize: P816


South from her is TM33 (Reflect). 


Bug Catcher Gray (Lv49 Skorupi, Lv50 Ninjask) Prize: P800


There's an entrance to the south from him, leading to the Flamerny Woods. 


FLAMERNY WOODS

--------------


Pokemon Found

Vulpix, Ninetales, Growlithe, Magmar, Venipede


Home of Fire-type Pokemon because we are close to a volcano. 


CoolTrainer Tom (Lv50 Dusclops, Lv52 Monferno) Prize: P2496


Across the grass to the right from him, near another sign post, is a Fire Stone. Continue south and speak to the Youngster to get a Larvesta. The item near him is a Burn Heal. 


CoolTrainer Rosa (Lv50 Torkoal, Lv52 Growlithe) Prize: P2496


To the left from her is one Charcoal. Continue south. 


Bug Catcher Kevin (Lv50 Skorupi, Lv52 Whirlipede) Prize: P832


Southwest from him is, you guessed it, one Super Potion. 


Bug Catcher Maria (Lv52 Ninjask) Prize: P832


The exit is just a few steps south...but we are met by Pearl before we can leave. If only she was here to give some useful information or TM or item. If only. Battle #2.


>>RIVAL BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Pearl (Lv64 Buneary, Lv65 Venusaur, Sceptile) Prize: P1300


Exit the woods and find the next portion of Route 506. Small portion.

We find Prof. Ellie standing in the streets, she has been waiting for us. The big problem facing this place is in the form of a small iron pest - Aron. We're told they came from Mt. Vulcan nearby due to overpopulation (oO?) and the Gym Leader is studying them in Mt. Vulcan. Then we find out that Prof. Ellie is also a Trainer and NOW she figures it's a good time to battle us, because why not. 


>>TRAINER BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Prof. Ellie Prize: P1320

(Lv64 Milotic, Lv65 Altaria, Manectric, Lv66 Houndoom)


** NOTE: All along I have identified Prof. Ellie as a woman, given the name, and yet her battle sprite looks to be the head of that legendary PokeManiac Bill on the body of Cinnabar Island Gym Leader Blaine. So Ellie is a man then?


After the battle Prof. Ellie tells us to give the Gym Leader a Super Repel so that the Aron can be chased away. Then she...or maybe he now...leaves. Before tackling Mt. Vulcan, let's look around. 


Speak to the CoolTrainer sitting on a bench nearby where we were talking to Prof. Ellie to receive a Magby. 


If you're looking to get some new PokeBalls, why not visit the Flamerny City PokeBall Factory? Speak to the man at the desk on the right.

Blocking the Gym entrance is an Aron, no surprise :) time to sort out this mess. The entrance into Mt. Vulcan is just north from the PokeCenter. 


MT. VULCAN

----------


We won't enter the mountain just yet, but are brought to an area at the mountain's base. Carry on north. 


Pokemon Found (Outside area)

.............

Slugma, Torkoal, Vulpix


Triathlete Carla (Lv52 Nincada, Quilava) Prize: P2080


To the left from her is an Ultra Ball. 


Hiker Paulo (Lv52 Rhyhorn, Lv53 Onix) Prize: P2120


You'll find a Full Heal just to the southeast from him. 


Hiker Sebastian (Lv53 Rhydon, Quagsire) Prize: P2120


Cross the bridge and continue north. That item you find is a Revive. The actual entrance into the mountain is down those steps on the left. 


Pokemon Found (Cave Area)

.............

Camerupt, Slugma, Numel, Magmar, Magcargo


That item we see near the small lava pool is a Fire Stone. Head south for the bridge. 


Scientist Steven (Lv52 Riolu, Lv53 Magmar) Prize: P1696


Hiker Patrick (Lv52 Rhyhorn, Lv53 Rhydon) Prize: P2120


Just below the steps to the right from him is a Super Potion. 


Scientist Michel (Lv52 Riolu, Lv53 Magmar) Prize: P1696


Follow the path all the way until we meet up with Luke, he was at Marfeny Lake and gave us the HM for Lava Surf, remember him? Turns out he's the Gym Leader here. He'll ask for a Super Repel and by Jove it works! The Aron are gone and he returns to the Gym. Before you leave, continue all the way to the right to find TM38 (Fire Blast). You can either walk back out of here (levelling up along the way) or unleash the almighty Escape Rope. Either way, see you at the Gym. 


FLAMERNY CITY Gym

Simple Gym to get through, just make your way north.

Then we battle Luke. 


>>GYM BATTLE<<

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


Leader Luke (Lv68 Blaziken, Arcanine, Lv70 Charizard) 

Prizes: P1400 + Ruby Badge (Use of Fire Blow) + TM50


This is the move needed to deal with those rotten tree stumps that we found blocking the rest of Route 508. 


We're done here. Normally we would just fly back to Kosaka City and then go north, but when I tried to fly there I noticed that it was not indicated as a destination on the Fly Map. Odd. So we're 2-stepping it. Before you go back through Flamerny Woods, leave town by going west. This leads to the remaining portion of Route 507 we couldn't reach when coming from Carmin Town. You'll find TM20 (Safeguard) and a Super Repel. 


ROUTE 508 (The Return)

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Snorlax, Purugly, Glameow


Back here, clear a stump and continue. 


Youngster Miranda (Lv52 Banette, Lv53 Manectric) Prize: P848

The Merydian Berry Shop is the last house reached when leaving town via the west exit. Various Berries sold, all costing P20. Here's some advice, buy an Enigma Berry. You're gonna need it soon. 


Gym time. 


MERYDIAN CITY Gym

-----------------


Talk to enough people outside and learn that the theme here is Normal-type. When we arrive, we'll find 2 doors at the north end of the main lobby, one on the left and one on the right. I hope you like labyrinths haha.


If you go through the door on the right, you meet Jaqueline. 


Lady Jaqueline (Lv52 Munchlax, Lv53 Kecleon) Prize: P10600


If you go through the door on the left, you meet Saphira.


Lady Saphira (Lv53 Lopunny) Prize: P10600


Okay, from the main lobby go through that left door. In the next room go for the door on the right. We'll step out of the door on the right in the room where Jaqueline is. Go through the one on the left to find Samantha. 


Lady Samantha (Lv52 Ursaring) Prize: P10400


Go through the door on the right, in the next room we find Sofia. 


Lady Sofia (Lv53 Miltank) Prize: P10600


Final door is the one on the left. 


>>GYM BATTLE<<

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


Leader Aizen (Lv70 Purugly, Lv71 Miltank, Lv72 Snorlax)

Prizes: P1440 + Strong Badge (Use of Focus Punch) + TM01


This is the TM we'll need to break down those big rocks blocking the rest of Route 509. 


If you leave town by going west you'll enter Route 510. Just a little bit of it for now. 


ROUTE 510

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Luxio, Bibarel, Manectric


Lady Carla (Lv54 Chatot, Scrafty, Lv55 Crawdaunt) Prize: P11000


Blocking the rest of the way here isn't a bunch of rocks or rotten stumps...no, it's much worse - Team Steam :) worse because there isn't a single TM that will get rid of these guys. They haven't had much luck here but they still believe in their leaders. According to the sign post, further west is Noormeak City. The big takeaway here is the curious hole near where the grunts are blocking the way. It leads to a subterranean cavern. I wonder which TM we'll need for this one, hmm...


More bad news is that this city can't be returned to via Fly. What's up with that? Only a couple of cities in this region can be flown back to? Come on. Make your way back to Kosaka City and from there, go east. 


ROUTE 509 (The Return)

---------


Pokemon Found

.............

Skorupi, Luxio, Absol, Nidoran(M), Stunky


Get those rocks out of the way and carry on. 


Lady Vitoria (Lv53 Politoed) Prize: P10600


To the right from her is a Black Belt. Continue south. 


Lady Bianca (Lv53 Purugly) Prize: P10600


Shortly after that we arrive.

Distant relative of Fuchsia City? Just missing a little bit more of a passion colour theme :) let's look around. 


The Stone Seller's House is the one with a tiled room on the right when you arrive in town. Evolution Stones, all costing P2100. 


Speak to the CoolTrainer sitting on a bench near the entrance to the Ricyan City Pokemon Zoo to receive a Poison Barb. 


Don't bother going to the Gym yet, because the Gym Leader Soka is at the Zoo. He's the person standing by the enclosure where Steelix should be. 3 Pokemon have escaped from the Zoo and he's searching for them - Shinx, Snorlax and Steelix. We have to search the routes near Ricyan for them. 


Shinx is the first one we'll encounter, it is in the grass area where you found the Black Belt on Route 509. 


Snorlax is snoozing on Route 508, just outside Merydian City. 


Then Steelix is on the western side of Sunsun Lake on Route 505. Soka found it and will return to his Gym. He can fly back no problem, we can't. Crazy.


RICYAN CITY Gym

---------------


At least the Gym is another simple one to get through. Straight north. But no Naruto or any other orange jumpsuit-wearing ninja to be found here except for Soka :/ super missed opportunity there!

Make your way back to Route 510 and, well, Dig. Bring a Pokemon that knows Ice Smash too.

>>BOSS BATTLE<<

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


Steam Leader Percy (Lv74 Dragonite, Lv77 Garchomp) Prize: P6160


Percy still can't believe we've managed to stop them AGAIN and the bad guys leave. Kyurem figures it might as well bolt out of here too. Oh well. Leave via that hole which brought us here. 


Back outside, we can now continue on west. That item above the Beauty is ANOTHER Super Potion. Gotta be the 100th one at this point :)


Beauty Maria (Lv54 Roserade, Braviary) Prize: P4320


Follow that short sandy path north to find an Ultra Ball. If you carry on south from Maria you'll meet Carlos.

You got a PokeCenter AND a Pokemon Hospital. Things just got real here. We learn that the theme for the Gym is Psychic-types, so maybe having the hospital is the good idea. Let's look around. 


Blocking the Gym is a guard saying the Gym Leader Kilroy is at the Hospital with his Alakazam. 


At the Balloon Airport, we're told we'll need a Ticket to travel by balloon. Is this the alternative to Fly for the other cities in this region?


In the house to the right from the PokeCenter, the CoolTrainer is looking to trade her Kadabra from a Braviary. 


You'll find Kilroy in the next room at the Hospital. His Alakazam had a bad fever and can only be cured by an ENIGMA BERRY. You bought one back at that Berry Shop in Merydian City, right? Right?? You better have :) Once Alakazam has been healed, Kilroy returns to the Gym. 


That guard is gone now but has been replaced by one of our fun new rivals Yellow. You'll be forgiven for thinking he's here this time to help us with some information or a Key Item. Battle #2. 


>>RIVAL BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Yellow Prize: P1560

(Lv76 Serperior, Lv77 Samurott, Lv78 Charizard)


Afterwards he says he's off to Ironnem City, which is north from here, to collect the 8th Badge. Then he flies off on his Charizard. How other characters can fly around in this region but we can't (except when going back to the first one or two places) absolutely baffles me. Anyway, with Yellow out of our way for now, it's Gym time. 


NOORMEAK CITY Gym

-----------------


In this mystical Gym we are presented with 2 paths - the "sun/Solrock path" on the right and the "moon/Lunatone path" on the left. Both paths have floors we will be sliding along on to make our way north. Slide up along the sun path because the moon path is our way back to the entrance.

Leader Kilua (Lv74 Espeon, Lv75 Bronzong, Lv76 Alakazam)

Prizes: P1520 + Illusion Badge (Use of Water Pulse) + TM03


Don't worry, we won't need Water Pulse to move across water in this region...no, we're told it is for putting out small fires outside of battle. Really? 


Looks like we're done here. The next city is Ironnem City, which is north. Leaving town via the south will take us to the north side of Route 511.

The Meteorite Zone is in the northwest area of town and this is where you find TM23 (Iron Tail). 


Oddly enough the Ironnem City Shipyard entrance is locked so no tour plan there. Good news - the Gym is NOT locked :) might as well...

Simple setup here, we be going north.

>>GYM BATTLE<<

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


Leader Stella (Lv77 Steelix, Aggron, Lv78 Metagross)

Prizes: P1560 + Iron Badge (Use of Whirlpool) + TM12


You can't be serious, bringing in an oldie like Whirlpool? Again, why couldn't all these pseudo-HMs be Key Items when the TMs in this game are not reusable?? 


No more Gym Badges to be collected, maybe that's the one bright spot we get for now. Let's see what's out east. Still moving along a water route. Bring the Pokemon you taught everything you know about whirlpools too (unless you were lucky enough to catch a Pokemon that already knew the move AND you didn't replace it with Surf haha because who would've guessed that you were going to need that Whirlpool move down the road, eh??). 


IRONNEM CITY (Eastern Route)

------------


Pokemon Found

.............

Tentacool, Tentacruel


You'll find a couple of whirlpools blocking the way further east. What's at the end of this route is an island where you find TM02 (Dragon Claw). Blah. Oh by the way, Ironnem City is the other city we can return to via Fly. Congratulations. 


So how do we get to the Lauren League? Speaking of Fly, use it to return to Suner Town. From there surf south. Whirlpools ahead. 


LAUREN ROAD

Pokemon Found

.............

Tentacruel, Tentacool, Wailord, Remoraid

Swimmer Fabricio (Lv56 Seaking) Prize: P448


Follow the path as it flows east. 


Swimmer Leone (Lv56 Walrein, Wailord) Prize: P448


Then north, because that opening east (with the Swimmer learning to Surf) leads to a deadend. 


Swimmer Larissa (Lv56 Tentacruel) Prize: P448


Swimmer Gabriel (Lv56 Wailmer) Prize: P448


East from him is a small island where you find TM15 (Hyper Beam). Up north and onwards east. Whirlpools ahead. 


Swimmer Carmem (Lv56 Tentacruel, Gastrodon) Prize: P448


Swimmer Katya Prize: P464

(Lv56 Tentacruel, Lv57 Tentacruel, Lv58 Feraligatr)


We'll reach our destination, an island with a cave entrance. That item near the entrance is Super Potion #490. Here we go. 


MT. OREN

--------


(1st Area)


Pokemon Found

.............

Lairon, Rhyhorn, Bronzor


Going north. That is an Ultra Ball you see there on the right. Straight ahead is an entrance to the next area. To the right is a branch path going south, where we'll meet a couple of Team Steam grunts blocking the way further. They tell us that their boss Zero wants to speak to us at the top of this place. This has to be Team Steam's last stand. 


(2nd Area)


Pokemon Found

.............

Onix, Bronzor, Lairon, Machoke, Graveler


Before going up the stairs, continue north to find a Sharp Beak. Up the stairs, follow the way south to find a Max Revive. Then make your way north to the next entrance. 


(Mt. Oren Summit)


To the left and to the right you'll find sign posts about a mystic temple and that it leads elsewhere. Straight ahead we find Zero. Just as he starts saying something almost profound, he dives back into being angry because we've kept Team Steam busy. That's us - proficient :)


>>BOSS BATTLE<<

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


Steam Leader Zero (Lv77 Dragonite, Haxorus, Lv78 Hydreigon) 

Prize: P6240


One villain-level laugh later, he's vanished. Oh..kay. Guess Team Steam ain't done just yet then? Return to the 1st Area and continue on from where those grunts blocked the way. 


(1st Area - Return)

Lairon, Rhyhorn, Bronzor, Onix


That item near the exit is TM26 (Earthquake). We're out of Mt. Oren.

Tentacool


That's a Dive Ball you see as soon as you step outside. 


Swimmer Melody (Lv57 Crawdaunt, Lv58 Tentacruel, Sharpedo) Prize: P464


Surf south and then east until we reach land again. Waitng for us are our friendly neighbourhood rivals Yellow, Pearl and Silver. Rather than go ahead and challenge the Elite 4...or, OR...battle each other for supremacy, they figured it's a great idea for the 3 of them to wait for us here and battle us one by one. This is what happens when you decide to feature multiple rivals in a game. Please, for the love of god, stop with the multiple rivals that don't add anything to the story of your games, creators. They just turn into Rival Blue/Silver 2.0s anyway. 


>>RIVAL BATTLE - THE TRILOGY<<

>>ELITE 4 BATTLE<<

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


Elite 4 Robin Prize: P1200

(Lv73 Venomoth, Muk, Lv75 Nidoqueen, Lv74 Scolipede, Venusaur)

>>ELITE 4 BATTLE<<

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


Elite 4 Honey Prize: P1264

(Lv77 Sableye, Honchkrow, Lv78 Houndoom, Umbreon, Lv79 Absol)


#4 and final member of the squad, Rayne, is a fan of Dragon-types. 


>>ELITE 4 BATTLE<<

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


Elite 4 Rayne Prize: P1296

(Lv79 Kingdra, Altaria, Lv80 Dragonite, Flygon, Lv81 Salamence)


That takes care of the Elite 4. Champion Blake is next. It's time, Champion vs Champion for the Lauren League title!


>>CHAMPIONSHIP BATTLE<<

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


Champion Blake Prize: P5100

(Lv82 Charizard, Garchomp, Lv84 Zoroark, Lv85 Hydreigon, Lv83 Arcanine, Lucario)


Congratulations, you are now a Double Champion :D Nothing fancy after the battle, you get the same scene as when you became Zhery Champion and then wake up in your room. 


So this might as well be the post-game side of things. Step outside and go over to the Arceus statue, where we meet up with Ash. For winning both leagues, he gives a Key Item - the World Pass. This neat little item will allow us to attend the World Championship, an annual event where the best of the best compete. Sounds good :) but Ash doesn't tell us where we're to use this World Pass. Off he goes on his Charizard that he was smart enough to NOT release (unlike a certain other Ash). Darn it, Ketchum. 


Make your way back to Noormeak City and get to the Balloon Airport. Sitting on a bench out in this misarable weather is Sinnoh Champ Cynthia. Why is she out here? Well...


>>TRAINER BATTLE<<

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


Champion Cynthia Prize: P5100

(Lv83 Arcanine, Lv84 Spiritomb, Lv85 Garchomp)


Yup, being a Double Champion pays off :) just defeated the Sinnoh Champ in a friendly non-title battle. What a waste, because afterwards she says we got potential and she has more work to do...then flies off on her Salamence. Fantastic.


Speak to the man by the balloon on the left, he'll take us to a place called Alpha Island. Sounds exotic :)


ALPHA ISLAND

------------


No wild encounters here, just make your way east to the place that has a cave entrance. Inside, simple path, go all the way to the summit and meet your Pokemon maker - Level 50 Arceus! Good luck. 


Now I'm basically freestyling it here because neither Ash nor Cynthia have been of any help. We get a World Pass but aren't even given a hint about where to use it. The Pilot License doesn't work at the Balloon Airport, nor do we have a Ticket to ride the balloon on the right. I flew back to Seanport City to check if there's another ship available that will take us to the location of the World Championship. Nothing. But here are a couple of changes that I found after flying around:


Back in Kosaka City, standing outside the Sky Tower is a familiar face - the Mysticalman himself Eusine! Still on the road searching for legendary Pokemon...but when he's got some free time...


>>TRAINER BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Eusine Prize: P1700

(Lv83 Manectric, Lv85 Alakazam, Lv84 Umbreon)


After the battle he gives another Key Item, the Rainbow Pass. He says it'll allow us to reach a place only strong Trainers can go. Huh? Go back to the Balloon Airport and speak to the balloon pilot on the right. He'll ask if you want to go to Mt. Rainbow. Sure. 


MT. RAINBOW

-----------


Same deal as Alpha Island, no wild encounters here. Just make your way to the top and behold the multi-coloured glory - Lv50 Ho-oh! Good luck.


Next change was back in Carmin Town. Outside Prof. Ellie's lab is the next familiar face - Blair (a.k.a Hilbert) from Unova. Let's see what you got. 


>>TRAINER BATTLE<<

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


PokeTrainer Blair (Lv84 Serperior, Samurott, Emboar) Prize: P1680


No Key Item from him though, he just flies off afterwards. 


In Snowce City, we find Steven outside the Astronomy Lab. Same as Cynthia, we get another Champion vs (Double) Champion battle. 


>>TRAINER BATTLE<<

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


Champion Steven Prize: P5100

(Lv83 Skarmory, Lv84 Aggron, Lv85 Metagross)


Next change is at that island that is east from Ironnem City, where we found nothing but the Dragon Claw TM. This time there's a cave entrance leading into Mt. Sky.


MT. SKY

-------


Pokemon Found

.............

Golbat, Lairon


Ascend this new place to find the Emerald box art cover 'mon - Lv50 Rayquaza! 


Then south of Ironnem City, on an island to the left minding its own business is the legendary Eusine probably missed - Lv40 Suicune! Good luck. 


Lauren region is definitely not the best when it comes to travel, I can safely say that now. On my way through Route 508 I met this legendary in the grass - Lv40 Terrakion! 


Fortunately you don't have to see the amount of travelling I'm doing while also typing this now haha because it seems I'm just bouncing back to places where I suspect legendary Pokemon have settled while going to the other cities to see if other key characters have appeared, hoping one of them might trigger something story wise. No luck :/


Back in Mt. Vulcan, in the small lava pool in the northwest corner I found Lv40 Heatran! 


In the southern area of Dardusk Woods, you'll find Lv50 Mesprit! 


Flying above the waters of Marferny Lake is Lv40 Latios! 


Even went all the way back to Bramboch Town, where there's an airport and surprise, surprise I'm told I need a Ticket to use the plane /==./ so much for that Pilot License. 


??? Hours Later...


Remember that there's a Train Station back in a nice place called Central City? Yeah? Well, I'd forgotten all about it :D good grief, that is where this World Pass works. Could've helped us out with a little hint there, Ash. I was about to call it a day as far as this mini walkthrough goes haha So. Much. Travelling. 


At the Train Station, don't bother with the ladies at the info desks they just tell you that a Ticket is needed. Go straight to the man by the train, flash that World Pass and board. 


WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

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


We arrive in a village/town of sorts. A couple of houses, an exit to the east and then to the west is the one curious thing here. A cave entrance. 


REGI TEMPLE

-----------


No wild encounters here. No need for them because what we find instead is Lv50 Regigigas! Massive :)


We can leave town now. 


WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP (Eastern Sea Route)

------------------


Pokemon Found

.............

Tentacruel, Floatzel


The first Swimmer we meet tells us about a place along this route called Mt. Wish. Enough said :) it is right next door from her. Look who's awake, ready to grant that one wish? Lv40 Jirachi! Dragon Balls not included.


Continue east and eventually reach the location of the tournament. Everyone is pumped and ready. Inside the building, speak to the lady on the left at the desks to the right. It is time to take on the world!

This is a single elimination tournament, one loss is all that's needed to be out. First opponent is Carla.
