Victory Road (Japanese: チャンピオンロードChampion Road) is the final journey one must take before they can face the Elite Four of Sinnoh. Like the other Victory Roads from previous generations, there are three levels. In order to get through the cave, Surf, Strength, Rock Smash, Waterfall, and Rock Climb are required.
After the Elite Four have been defeated, and the player has become the Champion and has the National Pokédex, a previously blocked path will be open, which leads to Route 224. Along the path, a young woman named Marley will need the player's help to get through a foggy area of the cave.
Victory Road is a large, multi-floor cave, which requires the use of multiple HM moves to be fully explored. There are also multiple strong Trainers inside the Victory Road, testing the possible challengers before the Pokémon League. Unlike other Victory Roads, this one has a side cave which can't be explored when the player first goes through the cave, only becoming accessible during the post-game.
Marley
When entering the east side of Victory Road for the first time after defeating the Elite Four, Marley will offer to travel through the rest of the cave with the player, participating in Double Battles with her Arcanine. Like all Stat Trainers, she will fully heal all of the player's Pokémon after each battle.

When picking up the Leftovers, the game will say "Obtained the Leftovers", instead of "Obtained a Leftovers". This is similar to the greater grammatical attention paid when purchasing or selling multiples of items that have nonstandard plurals, such as the DeepSeaTooth, which is properly rendered as "DeepSeaTeeth" if more than one is sold.
