From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
The Wayward Cave (Japanese: まよいのどうくつ Lost Cave) is a two-storey 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. This cave is notably the only habitat of wild Gible, excluding the Johto Safari Zone. In Diamond and Pearl, Strength is required to enter this area, but not in Platinum.
Geography
Main cave
Wayward Cave is just as the name suggests; it is very easy to get lost in. Most of the caves features are the same and are repeated at every twist and turn. The cave is very dark, and light is hard to find, which is why Flash is needed to light the path.
Hidden area

The picture used in this article is unsatisfactory. Please feel free to replace it so it conforms to Bulbapedia conventions. Reason: Secret area is JPG compression saved as a PNG.

There is a hidden entrance obscured by Cycling Road that holds a basement floor, filled with various bike obstacles such as muddy slopes and jump ramps. Strangely, Flash is not needed to light the area in the basement floor. This is also the only place where wild Gible are found.
Mira
Mira is a young girl who can be found in the back of the 1F of Wayward Cave. Once found, she joins the player thus all Wild Pokémon encountered are battled as Double Battles. She is also one of the Stat Trainers representing Special Attack.
