Route 4

When you get to the gate, Bianca will battle you. She has:
Herdier Lv. 18
Muuna Lv. 18
She will have these two no matter which starter you picked.
Snivy picked:
Pansear Lv. 18
Dewott Lv. 20
Tepig picked:
Panpour Lv. 18
Servine Lv. 20
Oshawott picked:
Pansage Lv. 18
Pignite Lv. 20
Herdier has Intimidate, so watch out for that. Be wary, because she also has 2 Super Potions.
She should be no problem. If your Pokemon are weak, HEAL NOW! You'll have to battle Cheren next. After healing, go north and battle Cheren!
He has:
Pidove Lv. 20
Liepard Lv. 20
no matter which starter you have.
Snivy picked:
Pansage Lv. 20
Pignite Lv. 22
Tepig picked:
Pansear Lv. 20
Dewott Lv. 22
Oshawott picked:
Panpour Lv. 20
Servine Lv. 22
His starter is holding a Sitrus Berry. Then, there's the sandstorm that will damage any Pokemon not Rock-, Steel-, or Ground-type, so take that into account.
After beating him, you'll get an Xtransceiver call from the Prof., asking you to go to Nimbassa. Cheren leaves, but we don't have to go there just yet.

SAND
Sandile (40%)
Darumaka (40%)
Scraggy (20%)

There is a Hiker staring at an X Accuracy in the middle of a bunch of sand, where apparently wild Pokemon appear in! It does not matter if you go down or up. I reccomend going up, because there is less sand, and a house where you can heal up. Down the stairs are two fishermen; the one farthest down has four Basculin Lv. 16, the other has 3 Basculin Lv. 18. Head north of the stairs to find a Parasol Lady with two Tympole Lv. 18. Even farther north is a Worker with two Roggenrola Lv. 17 and a Timburr Lv. 17, then north throug hthe sand is yet another worker with a Timburr Lv. 19. Up the stairs is nothing, so head north to get TM41 Torment. Back to the main road. Oh yes, and by the Parasol Lady is a Hyper Potion.
Right after the road stops, you find a Burn Heal, and a Backpacker with a Darumaka Lv. 19. Off to the west is a Backpacker with a Cottonee Lv. 19. And up north, the Backpacker has a matching Petilil Lv. 18. Next to her is a Super Potion and a Backpacker with a Blitzle Lv. 19. Keep heading north to find the last Backpacker just past a freeway, with a Pidove Lv. 19. If you want to explore, I'll cover that now.
Go south of the freeway, then west, and you'll find a Worker with a Roggenrola and a Timburr, both Lv. 18. The Worker past him has a Timburr Lv. 18. In the house a guy will give you TM28 Dig. Further north is the Desert Resort.
That's just about it, so either go to Nimbasa or the Desert Resort (which is optional at this point).
GO TO DESERT RESORT
JUST GO TO NIMBASA CITY

Castelia City

Immediately when you enter, go south. In this little pier thing is a guy who will give you an evolutionary stone. If you pick Pansage, you get a Leaf Stone, Pansear, you get a Fire Stone, and Panpour, you get a Water Stone. DO NOT evolve your monkey until it has reached Lv. 22, where it learns a really powerful move. Trust me. Anyway, let's go to the Pokemon Center to the west. The guy in it will give you items based on how many people you've traded with. Now, explore Castelia City heading left. In the Battle Company, just to the left of the Pokemon Center, are a bunch of people to battle. But the prize is the Exp. Share, which will help your training a lot, so definitely get it. When you get there, a guy will go on the elevator. Go to the 47th floor. There's a Male Clerk with a Timburr Lv. 19, and a Female Clerk with a Herdier Lv. 19. Talk to the guy near her and he'll give you 3 Quick Balls and 3 Timer Balls. The Scientist has a Roggenrola Lv. 19, and he likes to use an X Sp. Def. Then there is a Female Clerk to his left who has a Petilil Lv. 18 and a Cottonee Lv. 18. You can pick up a Revive next to her. To the right of the room is a Male Clerk who has 3 Basculin Lv. 17. Talk to the Scientist and he'll give you a Scope Lens. On the 55th Floor there is a Hyper Potion south of the elevator. To your left there is a Male Clerk with a Woobat Lv. 20. Then there is a Scientist with a Muuna Lv. 20 who should start the battle with an X Special. At the bottom of the room is a Scientist with a Sewaddle Lv. 20 and he uses a Dire Hit. Now there is another Male Clerk who has a Pansear, Pansage, and Panpour, all Lv. 19. Then you have to take on the boss janitor dude. He has a Trubbish Lv. 20 and a Minccino Lv. 20. After you beat him he gives you an Exp. Share. Well, that took a while.
In the Passerby Analytic HQ, the scientist guy will appoint you as statistician. Then, as you're leaving, a girl will come up to you. She'll ask you to complete some questionnaires, 8 in all. These will broadcast to fellow statisticians, and if you answer all 8, you'll get a Fresh Water.
Go up the alleyway to the left and you'll see the Gym. Walk up to it and Cheren will come out, bumping into you. He tells you that Bianca's Muuna has been taken by Team Plasma! Don't worry, we'll get these guys later. Let's explore the city! The building on the left is totally empty (but mark this spot-you'll be back here soon enough). Head north and you'll get to a central plaza thingy. Talk to the dancer and he'll battle you with a Pansage Lv. 21. He'll ask you to look for other dancers. OK, we'll do that in a little bit. See the vending machines to the north? They sell Fresh Waters, Soda Pops, and Lemonades. Buy about 10+ Lemonades, because they are quite useful. Now go to the alleyway just to the right of the one with the Gym. You'll see two dudes smirking. ?? Go farther up and a dude will jump from behind a dumpster. AAAAAA! But he makes it cool by giving you TM70 Flash. Oh, and don't forget that dancer. He has a Panpour Lv. 21. He'll leave after you talk to him. Also, there is a cafe with nothing of interest.
Go to Mode Street, right of the Battle Company. Whoa, look at all those people! There is an ice cream stand where you can get Casteliacones, but only on Tuesday, and only once a day, I think. Then there is a studio. Talk to the clown and he will ask to see a type of Pokemon. He'll reward you with berries. That's all, so head back outside. Then go up and back to the central plaza. Go to the alley on the far right. The first thing you'll notice is a building on the left. The woman in it will massage your Pokemon, so if you have a Woobat, have her massage it, because Woobat evolves at a high friendship level. Up the elevator is not much, so head back outside. Then, down on the right, is the Game Freak Building. If you have Celebi (obtained by the Relocator-I'll cover that in a sec), the little boy will turn into a Zoroa! It will be Lv. 10, always Female. If you don't have Celebi, the little girl will show you a pic of Zoroa for your Pokedex. Go up the elevator and the blue-harded dude at the table to the south will turn on the Team Rocket music! SWEET! However, I think that's later in the game. Anyway, here's the dudes from Game Freak, chillin' like always. Nothing of importance here, so head out. Nothing else on the streets except for North Castelia (we'll get that after the Gym).
Let's check out the piers! The pier to the far left, by the gate to Skyarrow Bridge, we already covered. The one by the Pokemon Center has absolutely zilch for this point in the game, so head to the one by the Battle Company. You see Bianca and Iris. Then a Plasma Grunt runs up, and runs off. There's the last dancer with a Pansear Lv. 21. Next, go to the west of the city. Burgh says the Grunts are by the Gym. He one you'll have to fight has two Sandile Lv. 17. They'll go into the building. When you go in too, you see Ghetsis with 2 other sages! Yikes! They'll leave, and Iris will give you a Yache Berry. Pick up the Smoke Ball before you leave. You can challenge the Gym now, but if you got the Liberty Pass, head the the far left pier so you can get Victini!
GYM
Get your Fresh Water from the dude you see when you get in. Now for the puzzle.
-Go through the honey to the north and step on the switch.
-Battle the clown with a Sewaddle and a Venipede, both Lv. 20.
-Step on the switch to the left. -Go through the honey by the clown.
-If you want to battle a clown with a Sewaddle Lv. 20 and a Dwebble Lv. 20, step on the switch.
-Step on all 3 switches (1 on right on 2 on the left).
-Go through the honey to the north of the clown you just fought (or didn't) and step on the switch.
-Go west, then north and through the honey, battle the clown with a Venipede Lv. 20 and a Sewaddle Lv. 20, then hit the switch.
-Go south, through two honeys, and don't step on the switch (unless you want to battle a clown with a Sewaddle Lv. 21).
-Go north, above the switch with a clown, and hit the last switch.
Feel free to heal up, as the puzzle will stay solved. Then, when you're ready, go through the last gate and battle Burgh! He has a: Whirlipede Lv. 21, Dwebble Lv. 21, and a Leavanny Lv. 23. All of his team is weak to Fire moves (except for Dwebble, who is weak to Water-but your best move should kill it in about 2 hits). After you beat him, you get the Insect Badge, and TM76 Struggle Bug.
After you get out of the Gym, Bianca will call you on the Xtransceiver. She wants to battle you on Route 4. We'll haed that way after we check out North Castelia. Heal up and go north.
Now let's check out northern Castelia. The dancer dude in the middle will give you an Amulet Coin. Head north now. There are two buildings. The one on the left has the Name Rater and the Feeling Reader. On the 11th floor is the dude who will unlock the Relocater. Just answer "Everyone Happy" then "Simple Connection" and the Relocater is unlocked. The clown will open an item currently unreleased, so don't worry about him. Now, let me explain the Relocator. Well, there's not much to explain. Go to the menu (the one with your save file) and scroll down until you see 'Relocator'. Click on that and you'll find the instructions. The Pokemon that can be transferred are the shiny Raikou, the shiny Entei, the shiny Suicune, Celebi, and the currently unreleased Lock Capsule. You'll need two DSs, just to let you know.
The building on the right has a dude in front of the elevator. Just talk to him, then go up. This floor has a lot of people speaking different languages. One of the girls in the bottom-right will give you TM45 Attract. That's all here. Head to Route 4!
GO TO ROUTE 4

Skyarrow Bridge

There's not much here. Talk to the Hiker in the gate and he'll give you a Quick Claw. Nothing else except TOTALLY AWESOME GRAPHICS!
GO TO CASTELIA CITY

Pinwheel Forest

Sorry about the delay. I was busy beating Black. Anyway:

Grass
Tympole (40%)
Pidove (30%)
Timburr (20%)
Black: Sawk (10%)
White: Throh (10%)
Thick Grass
Tympole (40%)
Pidove (30%)
Timburr (20%)
Black: Sawk (10%)
White: Throh (10%)
Shaking Grass
Audino (95%)
Black: Throh (5%)
White: Sawk (5%)
First a note on version differences. Some Pokemon only appear in Black, and some only in White. Notice that Sawk and Throh are not version exclusives. In Black you can find Throh in shaking grass, and in White you can catch Sawk in shaking grass. However, they are rare (5%), and trading with a friend will really help.
When you first get here, the lady standing on the edge of the path will give you TM94 Rock Smash. Keep going forward and you can fight a nurse with a Muuna. She'll heal your Pokemon. If you go left, there's a bunch of Plasma Grunts. Drat! Anyway, just go south for the present. There are 2 preschoolers. One has a Cottonee Lv. 13 and a Petilil Lv. 13, and the other has a Roggenrola Lv. 13. Down south there is even more tall grass, as well as a Youngster with 3 Tympole Lv. 13. There's a Super Potion in the southeast, and another Youngster with a Venipede Lv. 14 and a Lillipup Lv. 14.
Go east and climb the stairs and there is more tall grass, and a Black Belt and Battle Girl. They each have a Timburr Lv. 16. See that big rock? Well, if you have a Fighting-type Pokemon (right now there's really only Pignite, Timburr, Sawk and Throh), they can smash it and you'll get a Star Piece. Go down the stairs to the west of the rock and get a Net Ball. Exiting. Anyway, go to the Gym!
Grass
Black: Cottonee (35%)
White: Petilil (35%)
Sewaddle (35%)
Pidove (15%)
Venipede (15%)
Shaking Grass
Audino (65%)
Pansage (10%)
Pansear (10%)
Panpour (10%)
Black: Whimsicott (5%)
White: Lilligant (5%)
Go west, and there are Twins, each with a Sewaddle Lv. 16. After them is a Team Plasma Grunt with a Sandile Lv. 16. Futher west is another Grunt with a Purrloin Lv. 16. Then there is a Pokemon Ranger with a Herdier Lv. 18. He'll give yo a Chesto Berry. To the south behind a fence (you have to go back and walk through some grass) there's a Big Root. There's a Super Potion to the west, which is where you're headed. There is a Youngster with a Venipede Lv. 16 and a Timburr Lv. 16. There is Pokemon Ranger that has a Pansage Lv. 18. More Chesto Berries! Futher on is another Pokemon Ranger with a Panpour Lv. 18. He gives you a Pecha Berry. Then comes a Team Plasma Grunt with a Patrat Lv. 16. Then there is a Pokemon Ranger with a Pansear. Surprise. Before you head through the log, go south and grab TM86 Grass Knot. Then go through the log. You'll have to fight a Grunt with a Patrat Lv. 14 and a Sandile Lv. 14. After you beat him, he'll give you the Dragon Skull. Then a creepy dude named Gorm comes in. Apparently he's one of the 7 Sages of Team Plasma. Thankfully, Burgh and Lenora come, and that's enough to make himn leave. When you give the Dragon Skull to Lenora, she'll give you the Moon Stone. Head east, picking up the Miracle Seed before jumping off the ledge.
Then there are more trainers. More! Yup. There's a school kid with a Muuna Lv. 17, a Lass with 3 Woobat Lv. 15, and another School Kid with a Purrloin Lv. 16 and a Pidove Lv. 16. Well, that's about it (Phew!), so go to Skyarrow Bridge!
GO TO SKYARROW BRIDGE

Nacrene City

As soon as you get to the city, Cheren directs you to the Pokemon Center. He gives you 3 Chesto Berries. And he tells you that the Gym Leader uses Normal-type. Heal up, anyway-there's plenty for you to do!
In the house closest to Route 3 has a girl in it that will trade your Cottonee for a Petilil in Black, or your Petilil for a Cottonee in White. In the next house, directly left, a guy will sell you X items-X Attack, X Defend, etc. A woman in that building asks you to pick something. If you chose Snivy you get a Miracle Seed, if you chose Tepig you get a Charcoal, and if you chose Oshawott you get a Mystic Water.
As you approach the Gym, N accosts you. He talks, then asks if you agree with him. Say what you want, but heck--he's the leader of Team Plasma! Why agree with him? Anyway, he'll battle you.
He has a Pidove Lv. 13,
a Tympole Lv. 13,
and a Timburr Lv. 13.
He's not too challenging. When you beat him, he'll walk away. Before the Gym, I would suggest you go to Pinwheel Forest. You can train and catch the Pokemon N had, plus super effective Pokemon against the Gym Leader.
GO TO PINWHEEL FOREST
If not, or if you came back, challenge the Gym. When you go in, a guy talks to you. He shows you some stuff, then tells you he's the Gym Leader's husband. Anyway, go to the Gym. The puzzle is relatively easy. When you get to Lenora, save. Make sure you have a good Fighting-type Pokemon. Then battle her!
She has a Herdier Lv. 18
and a Watchdog Lv. 20.
After you beat her, her husband comes running down. Apparently Team Plasma has invaded the museum! Go and see what's up.
Team Plasma steals a fossil head. Oh no! Go outside and Burgh, Cheren, and Bianca come along. Now go with Burgh to Pinwheel Forest.
GO TO PINWHEEL FOREST

Wellspring Cave

When you get in, a Team Plasma Grunt challenges you to a battle. One at a time. He has a Patrat Lv. 12. After that, 2 more come in. Oh no! Actually not. Cheren teams up with you to take 'em down. He has the starter he battled you with. They both have a Patrat Lv. 12. Surprise, surprise. Anyway, beat them and they return the Pokemon. Cheren leaves, allowing you to explore the cave.
Floor
Woobat (50%)
Roggenrola (50%)
Swirling Dust
Drilbur (100%)
Aside from the Pokemon and TM46 Theif, that's it. Head back outside!

Route 3

The first thing you'll notice is the Pokemon Day Care and the Preschool. Head on up there. There's a few battles-the woman has a Muuna, and the kids have the elemental monkeys, all Lv. 10. Now head past the twins who will challenge you to a double battle. They each have a Purrloin Lv. 10. Keep heading west. When you see the grass, stop and save. Cheren is about to challenge you.
He'll have a Purrloin Lv. 12 regardless of what you picked, and his starter is Lv. 14. Not too hard. Anyway, after you beat him, 2 Team Plasma Grunt run by. Then up comes Bianca with a little girl. Apparently those thugs stole the girl's Pokemon! Go with Cheren to take it back.
Grass
Pidove (40%)
Patrat (20%)
Blitzle (20%)
Lillipup (10%)
Purrloin (10%)
Shaking Grass
Audino (100%)
There's a Super Potion above, in the grass. You can't go south until you track down Team Plasma, so go west. Cheren is standing in front of a cave, but go east first. There's a Breeder with a Patrat. Lillipup, and Pidove, all Lv. 9. She'll give you an Oran Berry, and right past her is a Repel. Now, talk to Cheren and go in the cave!
After the cave, go south (remember, you couldn't go that way before). There is a Trainer with a Blitzle Lv. 13, with an Antidote right next to him.
When you go down, Cheren will warn you about the thick grass, which has stronger Pokemon. You can even enter into Double Battles in it! By the bottom of the grass there's a Trainer with a Woobat Lv. 13. To the south, right before the bridge, there's a Great Ball. On the bridge is a Trainer with a Patrat and Purrloin, both Lv. 13. There is an Awakening by the flowers, and one last Trainer. He has a Pidove Lv. 12 and a Roggenrola Lv. 12. That's it on this Route, so head to Nacrene City!
GO TO NACRENE CITY

Monday, March 7, 2011

Dreamyard

There are 2 trainers. 1 has 2 Purrloin Lv. 7, and the other has 2 Patrat and a Lillipup, all Lv. 7.

The person after the trainers will give you a Panpour if you chose Snivy, a Pansage if you chose Tepig, or a Pansear if you chose Oshawott. These are super effective against the Gym Leader's best Pokemon, so make sure you have an empty slot in your party. There's an X Defend right after, so grab that. Now head to the Gym!
GO TO STRIATON CITY
When you beat the Gym, come back here at the request of Fennel. Cut the tree in the way, and find Bianca. You go along, see a Muuna, then Team Plasma comes along to get that Dream Mist stuff. Battle those Grunts! One has a Patrat and the other has a Purrloin, both Lv. 10. Then Ghetsis appears. In 2 spots! Then he teleports and disappears. What's up? Turns out it was a Muusharna. Fennel runs up, grabs a Poke Ball, and runs off.
In the grass you can find a Muuna. There are a few items. Grab 'em and head to Route 3.
GO TO ROUTE 3

Striaton City

First, go to the Pokemon Center and heal, then save. In town there are 2 Great Balls, and 1 Dusk Ball. In the trainer school, there's a dude who wants to quiz you. Answer Antidote and then Awakening, and a Full Heal will be yours. Talk to Cheren and he'll battle you.
He'll have a Purrloin Lv. 8 no matter which starter you picked, and his starter is Lv. 8 (for name, go to Nuvema Town).
After you beat him, he'll give you an Oran Berry. DO NOT CHALLENGE THE GYM!!!! Believe me, there's an awesome Pokemon that will be very helpful in your Gym Battle.
GO TO DREAMYARD
If you want to challenge the Gym, here's their Pokemon:
They all have a Lillipup Lv. 12.
Cilan has a Pansage Lv. 14.
Cress has a Panpour Lv. 14.
Chili has a Pansear Lv. 14.
Beat them and the Trio Badge is yours!
Then a girl named Fennel comes along. She takes you to her lab and gives you HMO1 Cut. Whoopee! Then she says she needs some Dream Mist. Mosey on over to the Dreamyard to get it for her.
GO TO DREAMYARD

Route 2

Grass
Patrat (40%)
Lillipup (40%)
Purrloin (20%)
Shaking Grass
Audino (100%)
On this route are the first trainers. They have Lv. 7 Patrat, Purrloin, and Lillipup in that order, with one on each team. At the end of the route, go up the stairs and you'll find a Poke Ball and a Potion. When you get down, there's a tree in the way, to the left. You can get this after the Gym, but don't worry about it now. Save, because Bianca is about to battle you.
She'll have a Lillipup Lv. 6 no matter what you pick. Her starter is now Lv. 7 (for starter's name, go to Nuvema Town).
After beating her, head to Striaton City.

Accumula Town

Head to the Pokemon Center and the Prof. will lead you in. Bianca is there, too, and they will guide you around the center. At the Poke Mart, buy some more Poke Balls and a few Potions.
When you get out, some people are like, "Hey, something's happening!" In the square, a bunch of dudes in grey suits are gathered. A guy named Ghetsis comes and is all like, "We are Team Plasma and we will liberate Pokemon, blah blah." After the speech, a guy named N (I know, horrible name for the leader of the bad guys) comes up and battles you.
N has a Purrloin Lv. 7. Show him who's really boss and kick his butt!
After you beat him, he goes away. Heal up and head to Route 2. Don't forget to explore the town!
GO TO ROUTE 2

Route 1

Grass
Patrat (50%)
Lillipup (50%)
Shaking Grass
Audino (100%)
You and Cheren and Bianca take your first steps on Route 1. The Prof. shows you how to catch Pokemon, and gives you 5 Poke Balls. Bianca initiates a catching contest. For now, just catch a Patrat and a Lillipup. Talk to the lady in the middle of the second patch of grass and she'll give you a free Potion. Save it--you'll need it in an upcoming battle.
At the end of the route, you get a call on your Xtransciever. It's the Prof. calling to tell you to hurry up. So proceed to Accumula Town.

Nuvema Town

In the beginning of the game, Professor Juniper appears and talks to you about Pokemon. Then you choose your gender and your name. You meet Cheren and Bianca, your rivals, and then you go to your room. You pick a Pokemon, and then Bianca will battle you.
If you picked Snivy, Bianca will have an Oshawott Lv. 5.
If you picked Tepig, she'll have a Snivy Lv. 5.
And if you picked Oshawott, she'll have a Tepig Lv. 5.
Keep using Tackle, as she should waste time with Leer or Tail Whip.
After the battle, you notice your room is trashed. Who cares, just battle Cheren.
If you picked Snivy, Cheren will have Tepig Lv. 5,
If you picked Tepig he'll have Oshawott Lv. 5,
and if you picked Oshawott, he'll have a Snivy Lv. 5.
Again, keep using Tackle. When you beat him, your Pokemon should grow a level.
After the battle, go downstairs. Cheren and Bianca are talking to your mom. They leave, your mom heals up your Pokemon, and gives you the Xtransceiver. She'll be able to heal your Pokemon, which will be handy during Route 1.
Head to Bianca's house, in the bottom left corner. Her dad yells at her for starting an adventure. Now, proceed to Prof. Juniper's lab. You can nickname your Pokemon, and then the Prof. gives you a Pokedex and asks you to catch lots of different Pokemon. As you leave, your mom gives you the Town Map.
Now, go and take your first steps on Route 1!
GO TO ROUTE 1
