Some players use specific caves for specific EV training (like dedicating the Water cave to Sp. Atk training). A few grind out egg moves and then EV train in their cave for complete control. Since the Pokémon are weak, you can auto-EV train entire teams quickly and safely.

Ok,,,I'm officially stuck, lol.How do I get past the Logs blocking the way into Fairbale Woods?I've spoken to everyone in Sunshell, can't Surf outside the bay area, and there doesn't appear to be another way into Fairbale Woods.Is this more backtracking to be done, or have I missed something? -EDIT: Nevermind!! I didn't speak to Garrett again,,,and now Connor's moved his backside to help :D

I couldn't find much on this, but knew some OG gamers would have a wealth of knowledge on how to utilize the training cave of our mansion in Celia city. I've already upgraded everything I can with the credits, including the teleporter to the daycare, and I have the incubator. Also, got the Ditto. I have found one trainer in Celia that gave me a power plus item for HP, so I have that one and the SP Defense one we get. However since we can't catch the Pokemon in the different caves we own, and they're level 5, what do we use them for? How do we get the most out of our mansion in that regard? How are other players utilizing their caves?

There was no apparent gym battle in East Celia, so maybe I've missed that?

Hi there. Any further updates regarding this guide being updated to include episode 6? I notice the last comment was February 2023 and that you needed time . . . It's now April 2025 :D

Aha,,,,Thank you. I hadn't gone high enough up the Mountain and was trying to enter that first hut,,lol.

Hi! I know that there is one move relearner in Blackview City after the tournament and one in Odis Village, but I can´t seem to find either of them..

Okay, so, I completed 'The Old Diary' sidequest, and obtained the Brass Key. Started 'A Snowy Connection' by speaking the the correct NPC and headed back up to the abandoned hut on Silver Rise Peak, but the door remains firmly 'Locked...' and will not open. Is there something else I've missed?

Eject pack straight up not working... Video

sup (dont bother with the high lvl umbreon its an offset challenge run) open the spoiler at your own risk this is potentially a late game fight spoiler The interactions are as follows: Turn 1 -> got hit by dark pulse -> Sableye used Trick succesfully swapped his sticky barb with Umbreons leftovers -> end of turn 1 this error message appears I also should mention that in my final clip where i beat this fight i sucesfully used Thief and yoinked the leftovers for myself and the game was fine idk if this helps but thats all i can do

The two tiles for this table do not have collision in Work Room 2C of the Cellia Prison

Hi there! Does the NPC say why you need to head there? My guess is that the Underground might be the Undercity. The Undercity is located to the left of Cellia Central’s Ranger station (on the same street as your manor and the Cellia Battle Tournament building). Garret’s crew should be standing in front of the alleyway that leads down there. Unfortunately, you will be rocking Snarl for a while longer. As of this current version, there aren’t any other special dark TMs besides Snarl.

Hello! I just beat Garrett and got the 7th badge, but I dont know how to go back to the underground. An NPC keeps telling me its Garrett's orders. Also, while I'm here, are there any good special dark TM's? Been rocking snarl lol.

Hey guys, I completed the quest that lets you into the abandoned house on silver rise peak, originally I didnt catch the fletchling that was in there. However, I've went back wanting to catch it but its no longer here. Can anyone help?

I went into the starter room and decided to check the PC before I choose. I was able to basically phase through the professor on the way out but now cannot get back in. I'm sure I can load a previous save but just wanted to report this bug. I hope this is the right spot for things like this.

i got this pop up and when i looked into it, it said its mostly an issue with macs but i am on Win 11. I do not know how to fix it. someone help please Game - Rina - 30 - 4h 22m - 1 badges - Celeste Center.rxdata

So I was trying to restore a former save file when I realized I could save scarlet, but after a few hours of trying to find it, I realized my save files were missing. I looked at my save files in games, and it said "save 1 slotsave corrupted". Trying to open the save folder also did not work. What can I do?

As far as I remember, Desolation uses Gen 8 learnsets, so Sharpedo should learn Liquidation on level 46

Are you playing on PC or Joiplay? And is your game up to date? Additionally, does the error log have any errors in it? You can find this log in your save data folder.

So my game just crashed as soon as I entered the cave in the weeping hill after the fight with a crescent grunt. there is no error popup or anything game just closed.

Regarding Garret's Lucario, that is on purpose for difficulty reasons.

When secondary electric type is added by Electric Terrain, Wacan Berry does not reduce the super-effective damage done by the moves that gain electric typing. Additionally, Garrett's Mega-Lucario has only 1 EV in speed, and none anywhere else, which makes this mon quite a bit more easy than likely intended.
