Starting from the bridge near the entrance to {{rt|205|Sinnoh}}'s south half, {{m|Surf}} on the river northwest and eventually you'll reach [[Fuego Ironworks]]. Get off at the northern bank of the river. It's worth noting that outside of the Ironworks, you can find wild {{p|Magnemite}}.
Inside Fuego Ironworks your objective is getting to the boiler in the center, where the owner [[Mr. Fuego]] is. You will need to use the [[spin tile]]s to reach him. First head into the direction of the southeastern corner of the Ironworks at your own pace, but avoid the tile near Mr. Fuego as that one will take you through another tile that will cause you to start over. After accessing the (↓) tile in the southeastern area you will see three (←) in a line that lead to a larger patch of tiles. The northernmost (←) is the correct one to use and will get you to the area just to the right of the entrance to the boiler place.
===Stars for Shards===
Mr. Fuego will give you a [[Star Piece]] when you first meet him. From now on, you can trade a Star Piece for one of all four different-colored [[Shard]]s.

On {{rt|213|Sinnoh}}, use {{m|Surf}} south of Dr. Footstep's house and follow the rock wall eastward. Eventually, you will find a narrow passage to a patch of sea that contains most of the trainers and a few items. South of that is another passage leading to {{tc|Swimmer}} Shetlin, a [[Big Pearl]], and a [[Max Revive]]. Whenever you visit a small island, be sure to use the Dowsing Machine on your [[Pokétch]] to find more items.

{{m|Fly}} to [[Sandgem Town]] and use the south exit to reach {{rt|219|Sinnoh}}. It is the first of a chain of routes that you can use to reach Sinnoh's [[Pal Park]]. The Pal Park will be inaccessible until you have the National Pokédex, but the training you'll get on the way there is valuable, and the Pal Park can be flown to after you visit it once. You'll want to bring {{t|Grass}}- and/or {{t|Electric}}-types for the trip since the Trainers on the upcoming Routes use mostly {{type|Water}}s.

Though not as simple as Route 219, {{rt|220|Sinnoh}} is pretty straightforward. Head down the eastern side when the route forks in two, fight the {{tc|Swimmer}} there, then backtrack and head down the western fork. A little further on, the way forward forks in two again, this time around a largish island. Grab the [[Max Repel]] just north of it, then head down the southern fork until you reach the island with the submerged shoreline. Continue east past the [[Carbos]], making a quick detour into route 221 to fight the female Swimmer, then backtrack and head north where the Carbos is, head west briefly to fight the male Swimmer, then go east to {{rt|221|Sinnoh}}.

Nothing important will happen here until the post-game after obtaining the [[National Pokédex]]. Eldritch is waiting near his boat at the dock nearby, and he can take you to Iron Island which will be required to visit. South from the wharf is a hidden area where you can pick up the {{tm|89|U-turn}}.

Be aware that the toughest Pokémon you'll face here is Level 41. The layout of the [[Canalave Gym]] is a maze consisting of multiple elevator platforms. As you may already know, it specializes in {{type|Steel}}s. You'll want {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Ground}}-, and/or {{t|Fighting}}-type attacks on your Pokémon. Many of the Pokémon in this gym are part Ground or {{t|Rock}}, so {{type|Water}} attacks (such as {{m|Surf}}) are also useful. Steel-types [[Damage modification#Not very effective|resist]] attacks of almost every other type, and are completely immune to {{type|Poison}} moves. Also, most of the Pokémon in this Gym have high [[Defense]], so [[Special Attack|Special]] moves will do the most damage to them.
To deal with the maze, first head to the easternmost elevator out of the set of four you'll find on 1F. Then, take the elevator south of you on 2F to reach the southeast area of 1F. The next one will take you back up to 2F. Then, use the moving lift hooked up to a wire to get across the ledge. Take the regular elevator there to reach 3F, where you will find more moving lifts to take you across the wires. First, use the moving lift north of you to reach the north area of 3F with two moving lifts side-by side. Take the northern lift and then keep following the path that will take you back down to 2F. Another elevator will take you to the northern area of the 1F. There, an elevator with a red outline will take you up to 4F where [[Byron]], the Gym Leader and the father of [[Oreburgh City]] Gym Leader [[Roark]] is.

Byron starts by sending out {{p|Magneton}}, whose weak Sp. Defense makes it vulnerable to moves like {{m|Fire Blast}}. Also, a {{type|Ground}} move like {{m|Earthquake}} could easily take it out in one hit due to its Steel/{{t|Electric}} typing. Beware of {{m|Flash Cannon}} if your Earthquake user is part {{type|Rock}}. {{m|Metal Sound}} will harshly lower your Pokémon's Special Defense, causing {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Tri Attack}}, and Flash Cannon to do even more damage, so be careful. It's best to use Special attacks on Byron's {{p|Steelix}} because of its high Defense stat. It will dispose of Fire-types with Earthquake unless you have a Fire-type strong and fast enough to take it out in one hit. Ground Pokémon, on the other hand, must watch out for {{m|Ice Fang}}. Don't worry too much about Steelix's Flash Cannon, as its Special Attack isn't the best. The last Pokémon you'll face is {{p|Bastiodon}}, which is high-leveled but can easily be defeated by a powerful Fighting- or Ground-type attack due to it's type combo of Rock/Steel. Be sure to take it out in one hit (which isn't too hard), or your Pokémon will be on the receiving end of {{m|Metal Burst}}, which does 1.5 times the damage your previous attack did to Bastiodon. {{m|Stone Edge}} poses a threat to Fire-types, and {{m|Iron Defense}} will sharply raise Bastiodon's already high Defense stat. {{m|Taunt}} will only allow your Pokémon to use attacking moves, which shouldn't be much of a concern. Get Bastiodon out of your way as quickly as possible, and you'll have saved your team some pain and earned yourself the {{badge|Mine}} without too much trouble!
Once you defeat Byron, he will give you the Mine Badge, which causes all traded Pokémon up to Level 70 obey you without question and allows for {{m|Strength}} to be used outside of battle. He'll also give you {{TM|91|Flash Cannon}}, a Steel-type Special attack that occasionally lowers the enemy's Special Defense stat.
When you step out the door, your rival {{ga|Barry}} will be there waiting for you. After congratulating you on getting the Mine Badge, he asks you to come with him to the Canalave Library. You can meet them there, but he will stop you if you haven't been to Iron Island to pick up {{HM|04|Strength}}.
