==Goldenrod City==
[[Goldenrod City]] has been overrun by [[Team Rocket]]. It is up to you to liberate the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] and finally put an end to their schemes!


-----
===Radio Tower===

== Blackthorn City ==

[[Image:HGSS Blackthorn City.png|thumb|300px|right|Blackthorn City]]
 
[[Blackthorn City]] is a quiet town built into the side of a mountain.  On the northern outskirts of town is the [[Dragon's Den]], where you'll meet the town's most revered Elder.  This is also the place where you'll win your eighth and final Gym badge.
 
=== Time to Trade ===
 
The girl in the first house you pass by is looking to trade.  When you talk to her, she'll offer to trade her {{p|Dodrio}} for your {{p|Dragonair}}{{female}}.  It's your choice, but a Dragonair (and then {{p|Dragonite}}) will end up stronger in the long run.
 
The other girl will inspect your lead Pokémon.  If it is strong enough, she will give it an Effort Ribbon.
 
=== The Saturday Sibling ===
 
Remember to visit the city on a Saturday.  [[Week Siblings|Santos]] will be waiting just southeast of the Gym, and will give you the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Soft Sand}} when you first meet him, which strengthens {{type2|Ground}} moves.  All subsequent meetings will earn you a {{DL|Ribbon|Other Ribbons|Snooze Ribbon}}.
 
=== The Move Tutor house ===
 
There are four people in the house next to the Poké Mart, all of which provide valuable services regarding a Pokémon's moves.
 
* Move Deleter: He'll let a Pokémon forget a learned move - even a move that can't normally be forgotten, like an [[HM]].
* Move Maniac: Give him a {{DL|Exchangeable  item|Heart Scale}} and he'll let a Pokémon remember one of the moves it has forgotten.
* Grandma Wilma: Bring her a {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon with high friendship and she'll teach it {{m|Draco Meteor}}, the ultimate Dragon-type move.
* Ultimate Move Tutor: He teaches the ultimate move ({{m|Frenzy Plant}}, {{m|Blast Burn}}, or {{m|Hydro Cannon}}) to the fully-evolved form of your starter Pokémon.
 
=== Blackthorn Gym ===
{{sign|DPcity|header}}
{{sign|DPcity|title|Blackthorn City Pokémon Gym <br> Leader: Clair}}
{{sign|DPcity|The Blessed User of Dragon Pokémon}}
{{sign|DPcity|footer}}
 
The [[Blackthorn Gym]] is devoted to the {{type2|Dragon}}, so {{t|Ice}}-, {{t|Dragon}}-, and {{type2|Electric}} moves will see the most use here.  The first thing you'll notice is that, due to the lava bubbling underfoot, the floor has become unstable, and you'll need to return your lead Pokémon to its Poké Ball.  After receiving a major redesign from {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, the Gym now has a single floor that requires the use of the rotating, moving platforms to cross the lava.  The blue button causes a platform to rotate in place, while the two red arrows move you in either direction.  To reach the Gym Leader, you'll need to navigate the three platforms, and fight past five Ace Trainers.

Once your battle with [[Clair]] begins, use {{type2|Electric}} moves to inflict quadruple damage to her {{p|Gyarados}}.  {{p|Kingdra}} is only weak against {{type2|Dragon}} attacks, and you'll also want to use Dragon-type moves to beat {{p|Dragonair}} before it {{status|Paralysis|paralyzes}} your Pokémon with {{m|Thunder Wave}}.

====1F====
A Rocket Grunt blocks the stairs to 2F. His orders are to allow only people dressed in [[Team Rocket]]'s uniform to pass.
===Goldenrod Tunnel===
====Going Undercover====
Visit [[Goldenrod Tunnel]]'s Photo Booth to find another Rocket Grunt. He assumes that you are one of the new members recruited for the Radio Tower mission. They apparently ran out of uniforms, so he decided to "borrow" one from the studio. In an instant, you are dressed as just another Rocket Grunt!
===Radio Tower===
====1F====
Because of your disguise, the Rocket Grunt mistakes you for a new recruit and moves aside. Just as you are about to climb the stairs, {{ga|Silver}} rushes in. He yells at the guard, demanding that the group stop harassing people. He recognizes you a moment later, and criticizes you for wearing the uniform. His words reveal you as an imposter, and you abandon the disguise. Realizing his mistake, the Rocket Grunt immediately draws you into battle.
Defeated, he rushes upstairs to warn the others. Silver finally understands the reason for your disguise, but dismisses it as a weak person's idea. He is happy to let you handle [[Team Rocket]], as he is more interested in finding and defeating [[Lance]]. He warns you that he will be looking to defeat you next, and leaves.
====2F====
There are four Rocket Grunts patrolling the second floor. Battle past them to reach the western stairs.
====3F====
Battle another two Rocket Grunts and Scientist Garett. A Card Key is required to access the eastern area, so take the western stairs instead.


{{Party|
====4F (West)====

Beat the first Rocket Grunt and Scientist Trenton to reach the stairs to the Director's office.

The Director is being held captive here in his office, or at least that is how it seems at first. This man is an imposter, and is actually [[Petrel]] in disguise. Prepare for battle!

Congratulations, you've just defeated the eighth and final Gym Leader of [[Johto]]!  That's quite an achievement, but Clair won't hand over your last badge that easily.  While she acknowledges that she lost, she still doesn't believe that you're ready to take on the {{ka|Elite Four}}. In order for her to recognize you as the victor, you have to travel to the [[Dragon's Den]] shrine in the cave behind the Gym. Bring a Pokémon with {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Whirlpool}}, and head inside.
When the battle ends, Petrel reveals that the real Director is being held in the Underground Warehouse, behind the locked door in [[Goldenrod Tunnel]]'s access hallway. He doubts that you will even get that far, and hands over the {{jo|Basement Key}}.
 
===Goldenrod Underground===
[[File:Goldenrod Tunnel Basement HGSS.png|thumb|Goldenrod Tunnel, B2F]]
[[File:Underground Warehouse HGSS.png|thumb|Goldenrod Tunnel, Warehouse]]
====The Kimono Girl====
Enter [[Goldenrod Tunnel]] and head to the access hallway to find another of the [[Kimono Girl]]s. She mentions seeing [[Team Rocket]] members running around, and realizes that it was because you took them on. She wonders aloud if you may be able to face a certain legendary Pokémon, but stops herself and hurries away.


=== Dragon's Den ===
Use the {{jo|Basement Key}} to unlock the door. Go down the stairs in the next room to reach the Underground Warehouse.

Enter the cave, and take the stairs down into the main cavern.  {{m|Surf}} to the southwest, and you'll reach a large whirlpool.  Have a Pokémon use {{m|Whirlpool}} to cross over it, and surf east past the Dragon Shrine.  Northeast of the shrine is the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Dragon Fang}}, which enhances {{type2|Dragon}} moves. Backtrack to the shrine, and speak to the Dragon Master to be quizzed about your attitude towards Pokémon.  Depending on how you answer the five questions, you'll be rewarded with a {{p|Dratini}}, which may or may not know the move {{m|ExtremeSpeed}}.  To get the Dratini with ExtremeSpeed, <b>do not</b> choose any of the following answers:
====B2F====
* Underling (Question 1)
{{ga|Silver}} appears again a short distance from the entrance. He followed you, hoping that you would lead him to [[Lance]]. Since he was never able to find him, Silver decides to defeat you first instead.
* Cheating (Question 2)
* Weak Person (Question 3)
* Violence (Question 4)
Finally, you'll need to answer "Both" for the fifth question.  After the quiz, [[Clair]] walks in, expecting to see that you've failed. As much as she would rather not, the Elder persuades her to give you the {{badge|Rising}}, your final badge from Johto.  This badge earns the respect of all of your Pokémon, and enables the use of {{m|Waterfall}} in the field.  As you head for the cave's exit, you'll run into Clair on the northern shore, where she's waiting to give you {{TM|59|Dragon Pulse}}.  She tells you to return to {{to|New Bark}} and take Route 27 to reach the {{ka|Elite Four}}.  When you exit [[Dragon's Den]], you'll get a call from [[Professor Elm]], asking you to return to New Bark Town.  To get your {{p|Dratini}}, re-enter the cave and speak to the Elder again.


Heal up your battle-weary team, and set off to the south to reach {{rt|45}}.
=====Rival Battle 4=====
Each of {{ga|Silver}}'s Pokémon has grown 10 levels since the previous battle. His {{p|Zubat}} has since evolved into {{p|Golbat}}, and the Pokémon that he took from {{prof|Elm}}'s lab—either {{p|Totodile}} or {{p|Chikorita}}—has now evolved into its final form. His team includes one new addition, a {{p|Sneasel}}. As a {{2t|Dark|Ice}} Pokémon, it takes massive damage from {{type|Fighting}} moves.

Return after fighting [[Silver (game)|your rival]] at Mt. Moon in [[Kanto]].  [[Lance]] and [[Clair]] will travel to the Dragon Shrine to fight a tag battle with you and your rival.


Defeated, he wonders aloud if what [[Lance]] told him about not treating his Pokémon properly is true, but refuses to give up on becoming stronger.


== Route 45 ==
=====The Shifting Shutters=====
=== Dark Cave ===
After {{ga|Silver}} leaves, there are two Rocket Grunts nearby. Defeat them and pick up a [[Full Heal]] to the west. Collect the [[Smoke Ball]] from the southwest corner, then turn your attention to the three buttons on the nearby wall. Each of these buttons controls a different group of shutters to the south. To reset the puzzle, either flip each switch again or leave and re-enter the room. Press the blue one on the left, then the green one in the middle, and then the red one on the right. After exiting the maze, defeat the female Rocket Grunt and pass through the double doors.

While it was accessible once you had reached {{rt|31}}, you didn't have the moves ({{m|Flash}}, {{m|Rock Smash}}, {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Strength}}) needed to fully explore this shadowy cave.
====Warehouse====
Go north to reach an [[Ultra Ball]], then follow the winding hallway past the first Rocket Grunt to reach a [[Max Ether]] in the southeast corner. Battle a second Rocket Grunt in the northeast, then detour up the nearby stairs; this leads to a blocked-off area in the [[Goldenrod Department Store|Department Store]]'s basement and an [[Amulet Coin]]. Continue westward to fight a third Rocket Grunt. Pick up {{TM|82|Sleep Talk}} in the interior room, then speak to the Director. After hearing about [[Team Rocket]] occupying the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Radio Tower]], he begs for your help and gives you a {{jo|Card Key}}. This card unlocks the shutter on the tower's third floor. Climb the northeast stairs again and take the elevator up from the basement.


* <b>The [[Blackthorn City]] (eastern) side:</b>
===Radio Tower===
::From the northeast entrance near {{ci|Blackthorn}}, walk down the two stairways to reach a small lake.  {{m|Surf}} directly south, and climb onto the nearby rock ledge to find a [[Revive]].  Follow the path to the west, and you'll find {{TM|54|False Swipe}} near a ledge.  Backtrack to the lake, and swim across to reach the northern shore (west of the entryway).  Follow the trail north, then turn towards the southwest.  Climb up the stairway to the west, and follow the rock ledge to the northeast.  Speak to the guy to get a pair of {{DL|Type-enhancing item|BlackGlasses}}, which enhance {{type2|Dark}} moves.  Head south and jump the two sets of ledges, grab the hidden {{DL|Potion|Hyper Potion}} on the lone blue-green rock, and walk through the doorway to reach the cave's western side.
With the {{jo|Card Key}} in hand, it is time to defeat [[Team Rocket]] once and for all!
* <b>The [[Violet City]] (western) side:</b>
::After exploring the Blackthorn side of the cave, you'll emerge on the western side at the edge of another small lake.  {{m|Surf}} to the west find a [[Potion]], and a [[Poké Ball]] hidden nearby.  Walk south and swim across the tiny pool of water to obtain a {{DL|Flute|Black Flute}}, which decreases the chances of fighting wild Pokémon.  Navigate around the group of ledges, and {{m|Rock Smash|break through}} the two boulders to head east.  Have a Pokémon use {{m|Strength}} to shove the boulder out of your way, and use Rock Smash again to break the rock east of here.  Head north, and follow the path east and then south around a large rock formation, where you'll find a {{DL|Potion|Hyper Potion}}.  Continue south, jump the ledge, and pick up the {{DL|Ether|Max Ether}} to the east, hidden in the rock wall.  Continue south down two more stairways, and grab the {{DL|Status ailment healing item|Full Heal}}.  Jump the ledge to the west, and take the stairway south to reach a {{DL|Battle item|Dire Hit}}.  Jump the ledge, and head east to reach the exit to {{rt|46}}.

Afterward, step into the elevator to automatically ride to the Observation Deck.
====Observation Deck====
Exit the elevator and speak to a final Rocket Executive, [[Archer]]. He reveals the details of their plan: to take over the radio station and announce their return. Their hope is that hearing this broadcast will bring their leader, [[Giovanni]], back from his solo training so that he can lead them to regain their former glory. He refuses to let you interfere any further, and draws you into battle.

=== Mountain Road ===
Conceding defeat, [[Archer]] formally disbands [[Team Rocket]], just as [[Giovanni]] did before him. The Rockets flee the building, and the Director returns a moment later. He exclaims that your courageous actions have saved Pokémon nationwide, and rewards you with a [[Rainbow Feather|Rainbow Wing]]{{sup/4|HG}} / [[Silver Feather|Silver Wing]]{{sup/4|SS}}. He explains that there used to be a different tower at this site, but it was old and unstable. During demolition to make way for the new Radio Tower, this gleaming feather was found at the top.
[[Image:Johto Route45 Map.gif|frame|right|Route 45]]
 
He explains that according to a friend of his from [[Cianwood City]], having this feather allows the holder to meet a certain Legendary Pokémon. The Rainbow Wing allows the holder to climb the [[Bell Tower]] in [[Ecruteak City]], while the Silver Wing grants passage to the deepest cave in the [[Whirl Islands]]. As he is about to leave, he suddenly remembers another detail from his friend: even with this feather, the Legendary Pokémon will not appear to just anyone. He wonders if there could be another item that triggers its appearance.
 
He then leaves for his office, leaving you free to return to [[Mahogany Town]]. As you exit the tower, speak to [[DJ Mary]] on 4F (East) for a [[Bright Powder|BrightPowder]], and the girl on 3F to get {{TM|11|Sunny Day}}.
 
The next destination is [[Blackthorn City]], to the east of [[Mahogany Town]].
 
==Mahogany Town==
With [[Team Rocket]] gone, the souvenir shop's owner and her granddaughter have returned to reopen their store. The shady salesman who blocked the way eastward to {{rt|44|Johto}} has disappeared, as well.


{{rt|45}} follows a river ravine, forming a steep trail leading down from the mountains.  The route splits and recombines multiple times, passing the eastern and southern entrances to [[Dark Cave]] before turning west towards {{rt|46}}.  With so many ledges and bridges scattered across the route, you'll need to travel southbound more than once to get every item, and fight every Trainer.
===Just a Souvenir Shop===

* <b>To collect every item:</b>
::Walk south from Dark Cave's southern entrance to find an {{DL|Ether|Elixir}}.  Walk down the steps and jump the first ledge nearby, and head east across the bridge.  Jump over the ledge to the south to pick up a {{DL|Potion|Max Potion}}.  Cross the second bridge near Ace Trainer Kelly, and jump over the ledge here to find a {{DL|Status ailment healing item|Full Heal}} sitting in a large patch of tall grass.  Ignore the next bridge, and jump the next ledge west of the river for a {{DL|Valuable item|Nugget}}, and another ledge for a [[Revive]].  Here you'll be standing near two stairways - one leading south, the other leading east; step down the eastern stairway, cross the bridge, and jump the ledge to reach a small pond.  Pick the green Apricorn from the tree, jump the ledge, and take the bridge west to reach {{rt|46}}.
* <b>To fight every Trainer:</b>
::Walk south from {{ci|Blackthorn}} and jump the first ledge on the eastern side of the river.  The route diverges around a rock outcropping; you can jump the western ledges to fight Hiker Erik, or take the eastern side to fight Ace Trainer Ryan.  South of those two Trainers, cut across the bridge to the route's western side, and jump south to battle Hiker Parry.  Step down the stairs, jump the next ledge, and cross the bridge to challenge Ace Trainer Kelly.  Head south and jump the three ledges to fight Black Belt Kenji.  South of Kenji, the route splits around a second rock formation east of the river; jump the three ledges on the west side to fight Hiker Timothy, or jump the single east ledge to battle Hiker Michael.  Continue south, and travel west to reach {{rt|46}}.

==Route 44==
[[File:Johto Route 44 HGSS.png|thumb|350px|Route 44]]
 
{{rt|44|Johto}} is a pleasant mountain path that links [[Mahogany Town]] to the [[Ice Path]]. It is filled with abundant greenery, and springs that feed into several large ponds. The only patch of tall grass lies tucked away between two of these ponds.

[[File:Ice Path B3F HGSS.png|thumb|Ice Path, B3F]]


{{rt|46}} is a short route in southeastern [[Johto]] that connects {{rt|45}} and {{rt|29}}.  Pluck the green and yellow Apricorns from the two trees near [[Dark Cave]]'s southern entrance, jump a few ledges, grab the {{DL|Battle item|X Speed}} to the west, and head south through the guardhouse.  A short walk is all it takes to return home to [[New Bark Town]].
The [[Ice Path]] is a frigid cave that connects {{rt|44|Johto}} and [[Blackthorn City]]. Travel is made difficult by large sheets of ice, and boulders that must be moved to reach new areas.

====1F (Northwest)====
Go northeast to slide across the first patch of ice and continue on to the second in the northwest. Bumping into one of the rocks scattered here allows travelers to change direction.

Go east and pass by the stairway to reach the third ice patch. This one may be approached from two spaces on its west side; enter from the northern-most point for a shorter puzzle. Be sure to pick up {{HM|07|Waterfall}} on the eastern edge.

=====The Clumsy Traveler=====
Backtrack and walk across the rocky ridge. There is a man standing to the east; when you approach, he asks if the item that you just found was an [[HM]]. He claims to be the one who dropped it, but asks that you keep it. Continue on and climb down the northeast ladder.
 
====BF (North)====
There are four boulders scattered around this part of the cave, and each one must be dropped through a different hole in the floor to form a path on the ice below. Go north and loop around the northwest corner to find the first two boulders near the middle of B1F.

Of the two boulders in the southwest area, begin with the southernmost one. Use {{m|Strength}} to maneuver it around the scattered rocks and drop it down through the southwest hole. Backtrack a bit and move the second boulder northward, so that it sits next to the lone stalagmite. Leave it here for a moment and head to the southeast area to find the third boulder. Move it to the southeast hole, then continue northward. Push the fourth boulder to the north-central hole, then go west to finish moving the second boulder to the northwest hole. With all four boulders cleared, climb down the northeast ladder.
====B2F (West)====
The four boulders from the floor above have fallen in a spiral shape that grants access to the ladder in the middle of the chamber. Before continuing on, there are several items that can be found nearby, including a [[Max Potion]]. To reach the middle area, begin in the northeast corner and slide westward across the ice to the first boulder. Move in a clockwise direction from here to reach the patch of clear ground in the center, and collect the [[Full Heal]] before climbing the ladder.
====B3F====
Use {{m|Rock Smash}}, or approach from the east, to reach the [[Never-Melt Ice|NeverMeltIce]]. Climb up the eastern ladder.
====B2F (East)====
Move southward and climb onto the rocky ridge. In the east-central area, stand five steps from the east wall at the edge of the ice, then slide south and east to reach {{TM|72|Avalanche}}. Slide westward and climb up the ladder.
====B1F (South)====
First, go west and use {{m|Strength}} to move the boulder one step southward. Approach the ice patch from the south and use the boulder as a stopping point to reach the nearby [[Iron]]. Climb up the western ladder.
====1F (Southeast)====
Collect the [[Protein]] from the ridge to the north. Another [[Kimono Girl]] can be seen to the south.
=====The Kimono Girl=====
There is a gap two steps wide on the north edge of the ice patch. Begin from the east side, and slide down, left, down, then right to reach the girl. She explains that her sandals are frozen to the ground, and asks if you would give her a push on her back. After a hearty shove, she slides away to clear ground, and thanks you as she exits the cave.
From this spot, slide left, up, right, down, right, and down again to reach a [[PP Up]]. Return to the Kimono Girl's prior location and slide southward to the exit.

This is the Bulbapedia walkthrough for Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
These pages follow the remade Nintendo DS iteration, not Pokémon Gold and Silver. The guide for those games can be found here.


Goldenrod City

Goldenrod City has been overrun by Team Rocket. It is up to you to liberate the Radio Tower and finally put an end to their schemes!

Radio Tower

Radio Tower, 1F
Radio Tower, 2F
Radio Tower, 3F
Radio Tower, 4F
Radio Tower, 5F


1F

A Rocket Grunt blocks the stairs to 2F. His orders are to allow only people dressed in Team Rocket's uniform to pass.

Goldenrod Tunnel

Going Undercover

Visit Goldenrod Tunnel's Photo Booth to find another Rocket Grunt. He assumes that you are one of the new members recruited for the Radio Tower mission. They apparently ran out of uniforms, so he decided to "borrow" one from the studio. In an instant, you are dressed as just another Rocket Grunt!

Radio Tower

1F

Because of your disguise, the Rocket Grunt mistakes you for a new recruit and moves aside. Just as you are about to climb the stairs, Silver rushes in. He yells at the guard, demanding that the group stop harassing people. He recognizes you a moment later, and criticizes you for wearing the uniform. His words reveal you as an imposter, and you abandon the disguise. Realizing his mistake, the Rocket Grunt immediately draws you into battle.

Defeated, he rushes upstairs to warn the others. Silver finally understands the reason for your disguise, but dismisses it as a weak person's idea. He is happy to let you handle Team Rocket, as he is more interested in finding and defeating Lance. He warns you that he will be looking to defeat you next, and leaves.

2F

There are four Rocket Grunts patrolling the second floor. Battle past them to reach the western stairs.

3F

Battle another two Rocket Grunts and Scientist Garett. A Card Key is required to access the eastern area, so take the western stairs instead.

4F (West)

Beat the first Rocket Grunt and Scientist Trenton to reach the stairs to the Director's office.

5F (West)

The Director is being held captive here in his office, or at least that is how it seems at first. This man is an imposter, and is actually Petrel in disguise. Prepare for battle!




When the battle ends, Petrel reveals that the real Director is being held in the Underground Warehouse, behind the locked door in Goldenrod Tunnel's access hallway. He doubts that you will even get that far, and hands over the Basement Key.

Goldenrod Underground

Goldenrod Tunnel, B2F
Goldenrod Tunnel, Warehouse

The Kimono Girl

Enter Goldenrod Tunnel and head to the access hallway to find another of the Kimono Girls. She mentions seeing Team Rocket members running around, and realizes that it was because you took them on. She wonders aloud if you may be able to face a certain legendary Pokémon, but stops herself and hurries away.

Use the Basement Key to unlock the door. Go down the stairs in the next room to reach the Underground Warehouse.


B2F

Silver appears again a short distance from the entrance. He followed you, hoping that you would lead him to Lance. Since he was never able to find him, Silver decides to defeat you first instead.

Rival Battle 4

Each of Silver's Pokémon has grown 10 levels since the previous battle. His Zubat has since evolved into Golbat, and the Pokémon that he took from Elm's lab—either Totodile or Chikorita—has now evolved into its final form. His team includes one new addition, a Sneasel. As a Dark/Ice Pokémon, it takes massive damage from Fighting-type moves.

Chikorita If the player chose Chikorita:



Cyndaquil If the player chose Cyndaquil:



Totodile If the player chose Totodile:



Defeated, he wonders aloud if what Lance told him about not treating his Pokémon properly is true, but refuses to give up on becoming stronger.

The Shifting Shutters

After Silver leaves, there are two Rocket Grunts nearby. Defeat them and pick up a Full Heal to the west. Collect the Smoke Ball from the southwest corner, then turn your attention to the three buttons on the nearby wall. Each of these buttons controls a different group of shutters to the south. To reset the puzzle, either flip each switch again or leave and re-enter the room. Press the blue one on the left, then the green one in the middle, and then the red one on the right. After exiting the maze, defeat the female Rocket Grunt and pass through the double doors.

Warehouse

Go north to reach an Ultra Ball, then follow the winding hallway past the first Rocket Grunt to reach a Max Ether in the southeast corner. Battle a second Rocket Grunt in the northeast, then detour up the nearby stairs; this leads to a blocked-off area in the Department Store's basement and an Amulet Coin. Continue westward to fight a third Rocket Grunt. Pick up TM82 (Sleep Talk) in the interior room, then speak to the Director. After hearing about Team Rocket occupying the Radio Tower, he begs for your help and gives you a Card Key. This card unlocks the shutter on the tower's third floor. Climb the northeast stairs again and take the elevator up from the basement.

Radio Tower

With the Card Key in hand, it is time to defeat Team Rocket once and for all!


3F

Swipe the Card Key through the slot near the shutter. Defeat the single Rocket Grunt on the other side and take the stairs to the east side of 4F.

4F (East)

When you approach the stairs to 5F (East), Proton recognizes you as the one who interfered with Team Rocket's operation at Slowpoke Well. He warns against making him angry, but since you keep getting in the way, vows to show the full power of a Rocket Executive's wrath.




Afterward, pick up the Ultra Ball in the corner, then climb the stairs to reach the fifth floor.

5F (East)

Head toward the broadcasting studio to draw the attention of Ariana. She intends to get payback for her defeat in Mahogany Town.




Afterward, step into the elevator to automatically ride to the Observation Deck.

Observation Deck

Exit the elevator and speak to a final Rocket Executive, Archer. He reveals the details of their plan: to take over the radio station and announce their return. Their hope is that hearing this broadcast will bring their leader, Giovanni, back from his solo training so that he can lead them to regain their former glory. He refuses to let you interfere any further, and draws you into battle.




Conceding defeat, Archer formally disbands Team Rocket, just as Giovanni did before him. The Rockets flee the building, and the Director returns a moment later. He exclaims that your courageous actions have saved Pokémon nationwide, and rewards you with a Rainbow WingHG / Silver WingSS. He explains that there used to be a different tower at this site, but it was old and unstable. During demolition to make way for the new Radio Tower, this gleaming feather was found at the top.

He explains that according to a friend of his from Cianwood City, having this feather allows the holder to meet a certain Legendary Pokémon. The Rainbow Wing allows the holder to climb the Bell Tower in Ecruteak City, while the Silver Wing grants passage to the deepest cave in the Whirl Islands. As he is about to leave, he suddenly remembers another detail from his friend: even with this feather, the Legendary Pokémon will not appear to just anyone. He wonders if there could be another item that triggers its appearance.

He then leaves for his office, leaving you free to return to Mahogany Town. As you exit the tower, speak to DJ Mary on 4F (East) for a BrightPowder, and the girl on 3F to get TM11 (Sunny Day).

The next destination is Blackthorn City, to the east of Mahogany Town.

Mahogany Town

With Team Rocket gone, the souvenir shop's owner and her granddaughter have returned to reopen their store. The shady salesman who blocked the way eastward to Route 44 has disappeared, as well.

Just a Souvenir Shop



Route 44

Route 44

Route 44 is a pleasant mountain path that links Mahogany Town to the Ice Path. It is filled with abundant greenery, and springs that feed into several large ponds. The only patch of tall grass lies tucked away between two of these ponds.


Ice Path

Ice Path, 1F
Ice Path, B1F
Ice Path, B2F
Ice Path, B3F

The Ice Path is a frigid cave that connects Route 44 and Blackthorn City. Travel is made difficult by large sheets of ice, and boulders that must be moved to reach new areas.


1F (Northwest)

Go northeast to slide across the first patch of ice and continue on to the second in the northwest. Bumping into one of the rocks scattered here allows travelers to change direction.

Puzzle Solution
Ice patch 2 ↑ Up, ← Left, ↑ Up, ← Left, ↓ Down, ← Left, ↑ Up, → Right


Go east and pass by the stairway to reach the third ice patch. This one may be approached from two spaces on its west side; enter from the northern-most point for a shorter puzzle. Be sure to pick up HM07 (Waterfall) on the eastern edge.

Puzzle Solution
Ice patch 3 → Right, ↓ Down, ← Left, ↑ Up, ← Left, ↓ Down, ↑ Up, → Right


The Clumsy Traveler

Backtrack and walk across the rocky ridge. There is a man standing to the east; when you approach, he asks if the item that you just found was an HM. He claims to be the one who dropped it, but asks that you keep it. Continue on and climb down the northeast ladder.

BF (North)

There are four boulders scattered around this part of the cave, and each one must be dropped through a different hole in the floor to form a path on the ice below. Go north and loop around the northwest corner to find the first two boulders near the middle of B1F.

Puzzle Solution
Boulder 1 (To Southwest) Right 1, Down 3, Left 5, Down 1, Right 1
Boulder 2 (To Northwest) Up 4, Right 1, Down 1
Boulder 3 (To Southeast) Left 1, Down 5, Left 1, Down 3, Up 1, Left 4
Boulder 4 (To Northeast) Up 2, Right 2, Up 3, Left 2


Of the two boulders in the southwest area, begin with the southernmost one. Use Strength to maneuver it around the scattered rocks and drop it down through the southwest hole. Backtrack a bit and move the second boulder northward, so that it sits next to the lone stalagmite. Leave it here for a moment and head to the southeast area to find the third boulder. Move it to the southeast hole, then continue northward. Push the fourth boulder to the north-central hole, then go west to finish moving the second boulder to the northwest hole. With all four boulders cleared, climb down the northeast ladder.

B2F (West)

The four boulders from the floor above have fallen in a spiral shape that grants access to the ladder in the middle of the chamber. Before continuing on, there are several items that can be found nearby, including a Max Potion. To reach the middle area, begin in the northeast corner and slide westward across the ice to the first boulder. Move in a clockwise direction from here to reach the patch of clear ground in the center, and collect the Full Heal before climbing the ladder.

B3F

Use Rock Smash, or approach from the east, to reach the NeverMeltIce. Climb up the eastern ladder.

B2F (East)

Move southward and climb onto the rocky ridge. In the east-central area, stand five steps from the east wall at the edge of the ice, then slide south and east to reach TM72 (Avalanche). Slide westward and climb up the ladder.

B1F (South)

First, go west and use Strength to move the boulder one step southward. Approach the ice patch from the south and use the boulder as a stopping point to reach the nearby Iron. Climb up the western ladder.

1F (Southeast)

Collect the Protein from the ridge to the north. Another Kimono Girl can be seen to the south.

The Kimono Girl

There is a gap two steps wide on the north edge of the ice patch. Begin from the east side, and slide down, left, down, then right to reach the girl. She explains that her sandals are frozen to the ground, and asks if you would give her a push on her back. After a hearty shove, she slides away to clear ground, and thanks you as she exits the cave.

From this spot, slide left, up, right, down, right, and down again to reach a PP Up. Return to the Kimono Girl's prior location and slide southward to the exit.
