Fight Area

The ferry from Snowpoint City takes you here. After you arrive, you can get the ferry back if you need to.. This is the location of Sinnoh's Battle Tower. If you're into competitive battling, like many of the residents of this town, this is the place for you! Walk north and receive the Super Rod from the Fisherman. With the Super Rod, you can fish for fully evolved Water-types such as Gyarados and Seaking.

Battle Park

When you step into the gate to Battle Park, you will receive a Point Card. If you have any questions about how the Battle Tower works, speak to any of the women at the counter.

The Battle Tower, which is located here, is a great place to show off your skills. The first building you see here is the Exchange Service Corner, where you can exchange Battle Points (BP) you earn in the Battle Tower for TMs, held items, Vitamins, and even Rare Candies.

Since you don't have any BP yet, keep walking north to the Battle Tower.

Battle Tower

This is where Trainers go to show off their skills. Here, the Pokédex is not added to, Pokémon don't earn Experience Points, and all Pokémon above Level 50 are reset to their Level 50 stats while in the tower. When you challenge the Battle Tower, you fight seven battles in a row. If you win them all, you get BP. If you lose, your win streak (number of battles you've won in a row) is reset to zero. Basically, what you try to do here is not lose. Not all Pokémon are allowed— Version mascot legendaries and Event Pokémon can't be used. You also can't have duplicate Pokémon or held items. If you can win 100 times in a row (which is very impressive), you can get a star on your Trainer Card.

There are three attendants. Here's what you can do by talking to each of them:

Left Attendant

If you talk to this person, you can participate in a Multi Battle, i.e. a tag team battle. You will be entering two Pokémon. If you want to participate in a Multi Battle with a friend by using DS wireless communications, say "yes" when the attendant asks if you want to form a tag team with a friend. If you say "no," you will be taken to a room called the Battle Salon where you can decide to team up with Cheryl, Mira, Riley, Marley, or Buck. (You haven't met Buck yet— we'll get to that part.)

Center Attendant

Here, you can participate in Single or Double battles by yourself. For a Single Battle, you need three Pokémon. For a Double Battle, you need four. Your 21st and 48th consecutive battles will be against Barry's father, Tower Tycoon Palmer.

On 21st consecutive battle



On 49th consecutive battle



Right Attendant

If there's Wi-fi where you are, you can connect your DS to the network and battle people from all over the world. You can participate in Single Battles and Double Battles.

Exchange Service Corner

Once you have some BP, you can exchange it for prizes here.

Before proceeding......

Make sure that you are fully prepared! A tough journey is up ahead.

There are tough Trainers and wild Pokémon in Route 225. Most Pokémon you'll fight are above Level 50.

Make sure that you have done the following things before going on:

  • Buy a lot of medicines.
    • Buy at least 20 of each necessary medicine, excluding different versions of Potions.
      • Buying 25 to 30 of each is recommended.
    • To save money, don't buy Super Potions, and don't buy very many bottles of Potion.
  • Heal your Pokémon.
  • Always let your leading Pokémon hold Amulet Coin or Luck Incense to gain double prize after Trainer battles, especially if you're running out of money.
    • Another tough journey will be ahead once you arrive Survival Area.
  • Bring Pokémon with the following HM moves:
  • Train your Pokémon until they are at or above Level 55.
    • Having your Pokémon near Level 60 is recommended.
    • If your Pokémon are below Level 55, DO NOT even dare to proceed!

Route 225

050Diglett.png This section is incomplete.
Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it.

Head north to the small pool of water (after fighting the Trainers and cutting the trees to get the item), and Surf across it for a shortcut. Otherwise, walk west from the 3 trainers and the item. You'll need to navigate the bridges and go up and down steps to get to the northern half of the Route, which can be a puzzle to get through the first time. Make a thorough search of the area, because a lot of valuable items are here. After using Rock Climb to fight the last trainer on this route and grabbing the item, exit the Route at its northern terminus to end up in the Survival Area.
