Go to Celestic Town. Go inside the biggest house at the north. Talk to [[Cynthia]]'s grandmother. You can see a picture of the opposite [[version mascot]]: Palkia{{sup/4|D}} or Dialga{{sup/4|P}}. Then she will tell you about the Pokémon in the picture, and it will be considered as a seen Pokémon in your PokeDex. This is crucial for completing seen Pokémon in the Sinnoh Pokédex.

You'll see a blinking face on the Marking Map. That blinking face represents Mesprit...... no, actually, any roaming Pokémon. It is highly recommended that you catch it now because there'll be another [[roaming Pokémon]] after you completed the main storyline, and there'll be 2 blinking faces on the map, which will totally mess you up -- you won't know which blinking face is which Pokémon until you run into one of them in a battle!

Two of the best places to "wait" for Mesprit to show up are {{rt|205|Sinnoh}} and the Valley Windworks. Run back and forth between the boundary of these two places until you and Mesprit are in the same place. Once Mesprit is in the same place as you, use a [[Repel]], save your game, and set a Pokémon at or under Level 50 as your first Pokémon. Then, go inside the tall grass and run around (or surf around in the water) until Mesprit appears.

Apply the same strategy as the one you used to catch Dialga/Palkia. After your first move, Mesprit will escape unless your Pokémon used {{m|Mean Look}} or other similar moves that prevent escaping. All damages and status ailments will remain on Mesprit even it escapes, though.
Immediately inflict a status ailment (paralysis, sleep, freeze) on Mesprit when you encounter it. After your first move, Mesprit will escape unless your Pokémon used {{m|Mean Look}} or other similar moves that prevent escaping. All damages and status ailments will remain on Mesprit even it escapes, though. The next time you encounter Mesprit, hit it with a super-effective attack (if you are afraid that the attack may knock Mesprit out, launch a regularly-effective attack). If Mesprit is damaged enough (i.e. HP bar is in yellow), use attacks that are not very effective to whittle its health away.


When Mesprit is damaged enough (i.e. HP bar is in red), the next time you encounter Mesprit, start throwing Quick Balls without hesitating. Since you only have the first turn as your only chance in an encounter, Quick Balls are your best choice, but they'll not surely capture it -- you may need to waste 10, 20, 30 or even more if you're really unlucky. Be very patient, and you'll ultimately succeed.

Or, if you decided to prevent it from escaping, throw [[Ultra Ball]]s (or Dusk Balls if playing at night) instead. You may also consider about using your probably only [[Master Ball]], but as mentioned above, there will be {{p|Cresselia|another roaming Pokémon}} for you to catch after you completed the main storyline. You could save this precious ball for that one.

Apply the same strategy as the one you used to catch Dialga/Palkia.

This beach path is quite straightforward— head east and you'll reach the gate to Sunyshore City. There is a large amount of Trainers. However, most can be avoided if you do not wish to battle (But why would you want to avoid them?). This is a good place for training for your upcoming Gym challenge. The house on the left is a {{p|Pikachu}} fan club, and the house on the right contains a man that will randomly assess the size of any {{p|Remoraid}} that you show him. If it's big enough, you will be rewarded with an item. There are also many items scattered on this route. To grab all of them, you'll need some HMs.

When you enter Sunyshore City, a man with red hair appears and introduces himself as {{ef|Flint}}, a member of the Sinnoh [[Elite Four]]! (Elite Four are way tougher than Gym Leaders and will be your next challenge after you obtain final Gym Badge) He tells you that his good friend, which is the Gym Leader of Sunyshore Gym -- Volkner, is not in mood of battle and has headed to Vista Lighthouse. He recognizes your talent and hopes that you'll have an exciting battle with Volkner.

'''You'll need to bring Pokemon with {{m|Rock Climb}}.'''


This fairly large city has elevated bridges that are actually solar panels! They were built to provide electricity to the [[Vista Lighthouse]] and [[Sunyshore Gym]], which use a lot of electricity. Heal up at the Pokémon Center, and explore the town. The large building to your north is [[Sunyshore Market]], where you can buy seals for your Ball Capsules. Different seals are sold on each day of the week. If you travel on the solar panel roads to the two houses in the northeast corner of the city, you can meet an elderly couple that will comment on Team Galactic. Apparently, the woman knew Galactic Boss [[Cyrus]] when he was younger. These people are in the house on the right. The house on the left has a woman in it that will give your Pokémon a ribbon once per day if you tell her a story. The house that you must access using Rock Climb has a scientist inside that can give you several different Pokétch Apps, as a reward for showing him a Pokémon with the [[nature]] that he requests.

If you go north from the Pokémon Center far enough, you will arrive on a small beach. You can surf on the water, but this route comes after you have eight badges. The girl standing on the beach, [[Jasmine]], is a Gym Leader in [[Olivine City]], [[Johto]] region. Talk to her after you get your eighth and final badge to receive {{HM|07|Waterfall}}. The water is {{rt|223|Sinnoh}}. Wait to travel across the ocean until you have your eighth badge— you do not have the necessary HM to climb the waterfall at the end.

Now head to the Vista Lighthouse on the southeast of the town via the bridge. Grab the hidden [[Zap Plate]], then head inside.

You'll be immediately in a lift that brings you up. After arriving on the top floor, talk to everyone. One of them is Gym Leader [[Volkner]]. He'll tell you that there haven't been any worthy challengers recently. After talking with him, he'll go back to Sunyshore Gym. Look into the binoculars (press A button on it) and you'll see Lily Of The Valley Island (or the Pokémon League, as the Town Map says), where you'll later challenge the Elite Four.
