Wayward Cave

The Wayward Cave (Japanese: まよいのどうくつ Lost Cave) is a two-story cave in Sinnoh. Flash and Rock Smash are needed to navigate it, but the cave itself is optional. It is located on Route 206, beneath the Cycling Road.

There is a side quest inside the cave where the player can join a NPC trainer named Mira and lead her out of the cave.

There is a hidden entrance directly under Cycling Road west of the main Wayward Cave entrance. In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (but not in Pokémon Platinum), Strength is required to enter this area.
