Please don't post here. If you have any questions, or suggestions to improve the walkthrough, use this discussion thread.
This walkthrough should include everything in the game up to Episode 17. If I missed anything, besides random items hiding on the ground, let me know in the discussion thread.
I think the music plays a huge part in the enjoyment of this game. I've provided a link to the old episode's music. If you never heard it before, I strongly recommend trying it out. It makes a world of difference for me. Get the music here.
When you have control, there is a Normal Gem directly below you (hiding in the broken rocks). Things like rocks, barrels and boxes may have a hidden item in them, so its useful to check everything. I will only point out important ones, such as Rare Candy, Heart Scales, Ability Capsules and Evolution items, until they become buyable.
Head east. Get in the habit of talking to everyone. They offer important advice about the world and may give you an item just for speaking to them. A person on the eastern end will give you a Potion.
Go north and meet Victoria. After the scenes, you will have the choice of picking from all 21 starters across 7 generations of Pokemon games. Pokemon Reborn is a very difficult game. If this is your first playthrough of it, I recommend picking one of the Fire type starters.
You can quicksave right before you select the Pokemon you want and reload if you don't like the stats, or it has the wrong ability.

Water Type Pokemon Starters
=========================
Squirtle
Totodile
Mudkip
Piplup
Oshawatt
Froakie
Popplio
=========================
A Torchic with Speed Boost is the single best Pokemon available here. It will be useful throughout most of the game. Any of the Fire Pokemon will be the best choice. They have the majority of type advantages compared to Grass and Water.
If you feel like going with a Water type, Mudkip and Froakie with the Protean ability, are probably the 2 best options here. Good Water Pokemon are rare for the majority of the game. If you want Grass type, Snivy with the Contrary ability, or Rowlet, are 2 of the best.
Talk to Ame after selecting your Pokemon to continue. You will get thrown into 2 battles with Cain and Victoria. It doesn't matter if you lose, the game will still continue.
After the battles, you will receive some running shoes. Toggle those on (S) or just use the Fast-Forward button (Alt) to move faster. Battles will speed up with Fast-Forward also.
You now have access to a Pokedex and Pokegear. The Pokedex helps you locate Pokemon. The Pokegear does numerous things. Open it up and take a look. Online Play lets you battle other people and trade Pokemon. More features will be added to the Pokegear as you progress.

Talk to the middle person behind the counter if you ever forget your objective.
There's a strong trainer here. The character will change depending on the day of the week. You are most likely not ready to fight them, so I advise to ignore them, or quicksave before fighting. They are very helpful for grinding your Pokemon's levels here later. They usually get stronger trainers the more gym badges you have.
There's a TV you can interact with here. You can get some story bits here, check out some Pokemon in the area, or check the weather. Weather will affect your battles and encountering certain Pokemon. I will list any required weather for finding Pokemon.
You can change the weather currently in your game by changing the date and time on your computer. You may need to enter and exit a building to let it properly load on the game.
Another person here sells Common Candy. Use these to lower your Pokemon level when they are going over the max level requirement for the badges you have. If it goes over the allowed level, your Pokemon will stop listening to you and generally be useless in battle.
On the western side, next to the place to heal your Pokemon, is a PC. Use this to store/withdraw Pokemon and to store/withdraw items. If you check it now, you can take out a free Potion.
This game has 3 time periods that run by your computer clock. Morning (5am-11:59am), Day (12pm-7:59pm) and Night (8pm-4:59am). Just change the date/time on your computer clock if you ever want a specific time period, or weather pattern.
The grass on the sides of the Grand Hall has the first wild Pokemon you can encounter. Some Pokemon can only be caught at certain times in the day. The other ones can be caught by using the move "Headbutt" on a tree. If it doesn't have time of day, or requirement next to the Pokemon in the list, then you can catch it anytime.
Catch at least 1 Pokemon here. Bidoof is useful for throwing TMX moves on and for Headbutt.
I recommend to switch in lower level Pokemon during battles to get some EXP. There is no EXP Share item for several gym badges and this is the only way for them to get EXP currently.
Blocking the way south will be a person and a Pokemon. The Pokemon has a random chance to be a Snubbull or Stufful. This is decided as soon as you create your save file and most events in the game are decided this way. Speak with the person for them to leave.
If the weather is Sunny for you, there will be an Ice Cream vendor here. Ice cream is better than potions and cheaper. Money is rare right now, so I wouldn't buy more than 1 or 2. Vanilla is the only flavor worth buying, considering you have nowhere close to 70 HP to heal with Chocolate Ice Cream.
Head east up the stairs and battle the trainers around the walkway (leave the people surrounding the Pokemon for last). Heal up, quicksave and prepare for your first doubles battle with the people surrounding the Pokemon.
Head up the first alleyway you see and talk to the man. Give him 150 money to make him move. Follow the path and inside the house at the end will be a Minccino or Espurr. Feed it a Pokesnax to make it come with you (if you want it). You can find Pokesnax hidden in objects, or buy it from an NPC later.
North of that is the first gym you will be visiting in the near future. If the weather is a thunderstorming (rain with flashes), you can find a Blitzle here.
Southwest of the gym, during the day and clear weather, you can find a Teddiursa. Interacting with him will start a hide and seek event throughout Peridot Ward. During one of the encounters, you will enter into a battle, for the chance to catch it. Here are its possible locations:
If you continue southwest, you will find a Pokesnax in a house. You actually have 3 choices currently to use this Pokesnax on. The Minccino/Espurr from earlier, Gulpin, or Whismur. all 3 are located close to each other. None of these Pokemon are essential right now though.
Warning: Whismur will be gone after you get your first badge. If you want one, now is your only chance, until several badges later.
Go inside the house next to the home with the Pokesnax. Defeat the trainer and follow the path behind him. Pick up the Sea Incense and once you get an Old Rod (located west of this house), you can fish up some Pokemon here:
Go west and up the train tracks to the first house you see. Enter it to receive an Old Rod you can use for fishing. Continue up and if you enter here, you can change the names of any Pokemon you have.
Go east here for a Pokemon Center if you want to heal. There's an Elemental Seed in the rock next to the Pokecenter. Continue north and defeat this trainer. Talk to her again to receive a Rose Incense.
Head west and down to 3 containers. Examine this one for a Heart Scale. These are important items for giving to a Move Tutor. They will let your Pokemon learn moves that may have skipped, or even moves that can be learned later. Finding Heart Scales hidden in objects, from wild Luvdisc and from Mining, is the only way to get them. I'll be pointing out any hidden ones.
Now head back east past the girl that gave you the Rose Incense. Talk to the guy above her and defeat him to be able to enter the alley behind him. Inside is a Super Potion and some more wild Pokemon.
================
South Peridot Alley
================
Trubbish
Stunky
Poochyena
================
I recommend catching a Trubbish. Having it use Toxic Spikes during the next Gym Battle to poison their Pokemon will help a lot. If you ran out of Pokeballs, you can buy them in the Grand Hall, or there's a Pokemart to the northwest. If you buy 10 Pokeballs at a time, the shop will throw in a free Premier Ball also.
Leave the alleyway, continue east and enter this building. Talk to the girl with the Kricketot and choose to take it. Start leveling this Pokemon. It will be useful for the early game with Fury Cutter. Even better would be making sure it has the Run Away ability. When it evolves, it will become Technician to boost your Fury Cutter power even more.
Continue east and if its raining, you will find a Pansear here. Farther east is the Underground Railnet. Inside you can encounter some new wild Pokemon.
Go west when you can and behind the fence. There is an Ability Capsule hiding in the barrel. After that, you can go back to the train tracks and slightly northeast to find a house with a Pokemon trade. He wants a Bibarel for a Munna.
Keep heading north and eventually there will be an alleyway you can enter on the east side. At night, when the weather is anything besides clear, you can find a Zangoose in the trash can. Interact with it to make it run to another alleyway. It can be in Peridot, Obsidia, or Lapis Alleyways. You need to find it 4 times to catch it. Grab the Heart Scale and exit.
Go all the way to the top of the train tracks until its blocked by a gate. On the east wall, you will find a Budew walking across it. If you obtained the Rose Incense from earlier, the Budew will join you.
Enter the house west of the fountain. Talk to the woman with the Igglybuff. Leave, head southeast and enter this building. After the 2 people leave, return to the lady. Defeat them and take her Igglybuff. You will need to keep the Igglybuff for a sidequest later. After that, its time to head a bit south and take the western branch of the ward.
Potion inside this house. Continue west and enter the next building. There are no lights on inside and you can find a Pokemon on the eastern side of the room. It will be a Joltik or Grubbin, only obtainable at night and before the 3rd gym.
Continue west and take the Common Candy in this building. Enter the Pokemart to the west, if you need to stock up on anything. Don't talk to the guy with green hair to the west yet. Continue north.
Now to progress the storyline. I'm going to suggest a team to use throughout the walkthrough. It will have very minimal grinding (only 2 times in the entire game), minimal Pokemon switching (it only uses about 15 in the whole game), and as many boosted EXP Pokemon as possible (these Pokemon level up faster than others, due to them having original trainers that aren't you).
Suggested team currently consists of:
- Trubbish
- Kricketune
- Bidoof
- Poochyena
You can throw whatever starter you picked into that list. For the walkthrough, I'm going to suggest a Pokemon team freely accessible to everyone. If you level your Kricketune and Poochyena up to around 18, you will have no problems with the next gym.
Quicksave and talk to the guy with green hair southwest of the Pokemart. You will get thrown into a battle with Fern.
============
Fern (No Field)
============
Budew
- Level: 12
- Type: Grass + Poison
- Held Item: None
- Ability: Natural Cure, Poison Point, or Leaf Guard
- Weakness: Flying - Fire - Psychic - Ice
- Moveset: Absorb - Growth - Water Sport - Stun Spore
After the battle, head all the way back to the southeast and try to enter the gym (big yellow building). Head back northwest to Mosswater Factory and talk to Julia.
You can leave this area anytime you want, so don't worry about being stuck. Fern will accompany you here. Having a partner is a huge advantage. They help you in battle and heal your Pokemon afterwards. This is a great way to train lower level Pokemon. Start by heading west.
Turn off the machine with the green display in the northwest, then continue northeast, grabbing the Parlyz Heal along the way. In the next room, active the machine in the southwest and continue east.
Meet up with Julia and Florinia, then continue east. Grab the Rare Candy, then backtrack to the previous room and continue south. Grab the Explosives at the end, then leave the way you came. Talk to Julia to advance. Quicksave before you enter the next room.
You can also get another field effect right now. Go back to the other factory in the northwest to find a new person on the east side of the building. Speak with him to receive the Factory Field info.
Activate the machine here for some advice against Julia. The gym puzzle is just to grab the Voltorb at the end of each path, then bring it to the gates blocking your progress to blow them up. Enter the north room to find Julia. If you need to level more, go to the Grand Hall and battle the repeatable trainer there.
Strategy: She fights on the Electric Field, but there's not much you can do about that currently. Leading off with Trubbish and using Toxic Spikes to poison her Pokemon, is a good way to start the fight. Mightyena can sweep her team using his moveset. You can always use Potions to heal and just let the poison damage slowly kill her Pokemon.
Other Options: If Mudkip was your starter and you evolved him, he will give you an easy battle here. Immune to electric damage and super effective against it. You don't have many other options that are convenient at this point in the game.
Defeat her to get the Volt Badge and TM57 Charge Beam.

If the weather is thunderstorming (Rainy with flashes), you can catch a Tynamo here.

Leave the alleyway, continue east and enter this building. Talk to the girl with the Kricketot and choose to take it. Start leveling this Pokemon. It will be useful for the early game with Fury Cutter. Even better would be making sure it has the Run Away ability. When it evolves, it will become Technician to boost your Fury Cutter power even more.

Continue east and if its raining, you will find a Pansear here. Farther east is the Underground Railnet. Inside you can encounter some new wild Pokemon.

After that, go all the way back west and its time to progress to the north.

Peridot Ward - Peri1
=================
Go west when you can and behind the fence. There is an Ability Capsule hiding in the barrel. After that, you can go back to the train tracks and slightly northeast to find a house with a Pokemon trade. He wants a Bibarel for a Munna.

Keep heading north and eventually there will be an alleyway you can enter on the east side. At night, when the weather is anything besides clear, you can find a Zangoose in the trash can. Interact with it to make it run to another alleyway. It can be in Peridot, Obsidia, or Lapis Alleyways. You need to find it 4 times to catch it. Grab the Heart Scale and exit.

Go all the way to the top of the train tracks until its blocked by a gate. On the east wall, you will find a Budew walking across it. If you obtained the Rose Incense from earlier, the Budew will join you.

Enter the western house here. Pay him another 500 to continue the sidequest. Defeat them and leave.

Southwest of this is a fountain. If its currently raining, you can find a Surskit by interacting with the fountain.

Enter the house west of the fountain. Talk to the woman with the Igglybuff. Leave, head southeast and enter this building. After the 2 people leave, return to the lady. Defeat them and take her Igglybuff. You will need to keep the Igglybuff for a sidequest later. After that, its time to head a bit south and take the western branch of the ward.

Potion inside this house. Continue west and enter the next building. There are no lights on inside and you can find a Pokemon on the eastern side of the room. It will be a Joltik or Grubbin, only obtainable at night and before the 3rd gym.

Continue west and take the Common Candy in this building. Enter the Pokemart to the west, if you need to stock up on anything. Don't talk to the guy with green hair to the west yet. Continue north.

Now to progress the storyline. I'm going to suggest a team to use throughout the walkthrough. It will have very minimal grinding (only 2 times in the entire game), minimal Pokemon switching (it only uses about 15 in the whole game), and as many boosted EXP Pokemon as possible (these Pokemon level up faster than others, due to them having original trainers that aren't you).
Suggested team currently consists of:
- Trubbish
- Kricketune
- Bidoof
- Poochyena
You can throw whatever starter you picked into that list. For the walkthrough, I'm going to suggest a Pokemon team freely accessible to everyone. If you level your Kricketune and Poochyena up to around 18, you will have no problems with the next gym.
Quicksave and talk to the guy with green hair southwest of the Pokemart. You will get thrown into a battle with Fern.

Mosswater Factory - Moss1
======================
You can leave this area anytime you want, so don't worry about being stuck. Fern will accompany you here. Having a partner is a huge advantage. They help you in battle and heal your Pokemon afterwards. This is a great way to train lower level Pokemon. Start by heading west.
Turn off the machine with the green display in the northwest, then continue northeast, grabbing the Parlyz Heal along the way. In the next room, active the machine in the southwest and continue east.
Meet up with Julia and Florinia, then continue east. Grab the Rare Candy, then backtrack to the previous room and continue south. Grab the Explosives at the end, then leave the way you came. Talk to Julia to advance. Quicksave before you enter the next room.

You can also get another field effect right now. Go back to the other factory in the northwest to find a new person on the east side of the building. Speak with him to receive the Factory Field info.

When you are ready to progress, enter the electric gym back to the east.

Electric Gym - Badge01

Machine: https://imgur.com/KPb669K
Activate the machine here for some advice against Julia. The gym puzzle is just to grab the Voltorb at the end of each path, then bring it to the gates blocking your progress to blow them up. Enter the north room to find Julia. If you need to level more, go to the Grand Hall and battle the repeatable trainer there.

==============================================
Suggested Team:
- Trubbish (Toxic Spikes + Acid Spray)
- Kricketune (Fury Cutter)
- Bibarel (Headbutt)
- Mightyena (Howl + Bite)
Strategy: She fights on the Electric Field, but there's not much you can do about that currently. Leading off with Trubbish and using Toxic Spikes to poison her Pokemon, is a good way to start the fight. Mightyena can sweep her team using his moveset. You can always use Potions to heal and just let the poison damage slowly kill her Pokemon.
Other Options: If Mudkip was your starter and you evolved him, he will give you an easy battle here. Immune to electric damage and super effective against it. You don't have many other options that are convenient at this point in the game.
Defeat her to get the Volt Badge and TM57 Charge Beam.
