WALKTHROUGH / CHAPTER 3

Catsear City and the Glass Factory

Rest your team, explore Catsear’s helpful stops and follow the eastern road to find the missing Gym Leader.

Catsear City · Route 3 · Glass Factory

Rest at Catsear’s Pokemon Center

From the northern city entrance, follow the brick road south. The Pokemon Center is on the eastern side of the main square. Speak to the nurse at the counter and accept a rest before leaving town. Crackliss and Spinarak were both restored in this run.

Check the Move Relearner

The lower-left counter in the Pokemon Center houses the Move Relearner. Speak across the counter and accept the offer to see forgotten moves. Use left and right to switch Pokemon. At level 9, Crackliss knew all its available moves, so its list contained only Cancel. The next chapter covers a completed lesson.

Visit the Ditto house for a Sweet Heart

Head south through the city to the house on the eastern side of the lower neighborhood. Speak to the Ditto in the upper-right corner. It gives a Sweet Heart, which goes into the Medicine Pocket. Speaking again while carrying it produced an out-of-chocolate response in this run.

Find the next objective

The Gym is west of the Pokemon Center. Its doors are locked at this point. Leave Catsear by the eastern road to Route 3 to look for the Gym Leader. You do not need to enter the locked Gym to reach this route.

Meet Monty on Route 3

A short way east along Route 3, Monty starts a friendly spar. Prepare your team before stepping farther along the road. Finish the conversation afterward: he mentions tough Pokemon in the factory and suggests that the Gym Leader may know the way to Edelweiss Labs.

Follow the factory road

Continue east through the grass. Near the eastern side of the long grass patch, take the opening north, then continue east along the upper path. Bug Catcher Jamie challenges you near the factory. Check the battle reveal below if you want to plan your team. Close the conversation, go east around him and turn south along the factory’s western side.

Look for a new teammate along the way

Route 3’s grass includes Minccino and Venipede. A level-6 Minccino was caught in this run after weakening it, using the Bag’s Poke Balls pocket and confirming its name. Encounters and catches vary, so bring enough Poke Balls and check your party afterward.

Find Bastion inside the factory

Follow the western wall south, then turn east along the lower side of the factory to its entrance. Inside, head north from the doorway to Bastion. He explains that he lost his Flint & Steel and cannot light the Gym’s kiln without it. Finish the conversation before searching the factory.
