Battle Frontier

Battle Frontier

This is a fun place to go if you want to show off your battling skills, and you can purchase valuable items with Battle Points you've won. This is mainly a place to have fun and practice your skills; If you're interested, you can read the main article here. There is an old man in the house north of the Pokémon Center that can check the IVs of your Pokémon, if you're into that sort of thing. There is also a Level 40 Sudowoodo that people have mistaken for a tree. If you water it with the Wailmer Pail, it will attack.

Weather Institute

There is a meteorologist here that has found unusual weather patterns. On certain Routes, there will be a downpour or unusually bright sunlight. Routes with unusual weather are where either Terra Cave or Marine Cave will appear. The caves are where Groudon and Kyogre await, respectively. But you have to get to the Route that the cave is on very quickly. If you don't, the cave will vanish and its counterpart will be available instead! Before you start chasing these miraculously teleporting caves, keep in mind that Kyogre and Groudon are Level 70 and extremely powerful!

Marine Cave and Terra Cave

Marine Cave

Marine Cave can appear on Routes 105, 125, 127, and 129.

Terra Cave

Terra Cave can appear on Routes 114, 115, 116, and 118.

Catching the Regis

Note: The Regis can be caught any time after you have seven Gym Badges.

The interesting creatures are considerably easier to catch than Kyogre or Groudon becuase they are only Level 40. Each is in a tiny cave on a different Route, accessible only after the Sealed Chamber's puzzle has been solved.

Unlocking the Sealed Chamber

Second room of Sealed Chamber

You will need Surf, Dive, a Relicanth, a Wailord, and a Pokémon knowing Dig to successfully open the Sealed Chamber. A Relicanth can be caught in underwater patches of seaweed, and Wailord evolves from Wailmer at Level 40 and is also extremely rarely found on Route 129. (Evolving Wailord from Wailmer is much easier than trying to find a wild one, since it has a 1% encounter rate.)

On Route 134, there is a certain spot where you can use Dive. Dive there, and once you're underwater, head through the door and continue traveling south to reach a Braille inscription. At the exact spot where in front of the inscription, use Dive again. You will now be in a mysterious cave filled with mounds of earth. Position Relicanth in the first slot of your party and Wailord in the last. At the north end of the cave, there is another inscription. Use Dig right in front of it to open the door to the next room. In the second room, read the inscription in the northern part of the room and there will be an earthquake! The Regis are now unlocked.

Regice

Outside of Island Cave

Regice awaits in the Island Cave, accessible by Surf on Route 105. This cave also has a puzzle, but it's easy. Following the inscription's directions ("Stay close to the wall. Run around one lap."), run counterclockwise once around the the inside of the cave, staying as close to the wall as possible. If you do it right, the door will open.

Before you talk to Regice to start the battle, make sure that you have 45 or more Ultra Balls with you. It will take 10, 20, 30, or maybe even 40 tries to catch this Pokémon. If you think you're ready, save your game and then talk to Regice. (Prepare for some interesting battle music.)

	Types: Ice Unknown Ability: Clear Body Held item: None
Regice Lv.40
Icy Wind Ice   --       Curse ???   --       Superpower Fighting   --       AncientPower Rock   --

Regice is weak to Fire-, Steel-, Rock-, and Fighting-type moves. Don't take it lightly because of all these weaknesses— its defensive stats are massive, with Special Defense in particular being truly astounding. The only one of its attacks you need to be wary of is Icy Wind. With Regice's abysmal Attack, Superpower and AncientPower won't do much. Get its HP down to red and then keep chucking Ultra Balls until you catch it. If something goes wrong, like if you accidentally knock Regice out or it knocks itself out with Struggle, simply turn off your game (if you saved beforehand as instructed) and everything will be OK again.

Regirock

Outside of Desert Ruins

Regirock awaits in the Desert Ruins of Route 111's desert. You will need Rock Smash. This inscription says, "Left, left, down, down. Then, use Rock Smash." Read the inscription and take two steps west and two steps south. Then, use Rock Smash and the door will open.

Registeel

Outside of Ancient Tomb

Registeel awaits in the Ancient Tomb on Route 120. You will need Flash. The inscription reads "Those who inherit our will, shine in the middle." this time. What you need to do is stand in the center of the cave and use Flash. If you do it right, the door will open.
