Trivia

• Although this dungeon requires the player to purchase the Secretive Forest, the Darkness Ridge is the only place where any Pokémon recruited here will reside. Shedinja (which cannot be recruited) is the only Pokémon here to reside in Secretive Forest.

This article is part of both Project Locations and Project Sidegames, Bulbapedia projects that, together, aim to write comprehensive articles on the Pokémon Locations and Sidegames, respectively.
