Appendix:Black and White walkthrough/Section 4: Difference between revisions

West of [[Nacrene City]] is a short road that leads into the forest.  If you have not already done so, speak to the girl just outside the city to get {{TM|94|Rock Smash}}.  South of the entrance is a puddled area with a handful of {{tc|Preschooler|young}} {{tc|Youngster|Trainers}}.  On the top of the cliff to the southeast sits a challenge rock.  A {{type2|Fighting}} in your party can hit the rock once a day, and each hit chips off a {{DL|Valuable item|Star Piece}} that can be sold for a high price.

The forest itself is crawling with {{t|Grass}}- and {{type2|Bug}}s, so be wary of status problems.  If you need to rest your team, you can speak with the {{tc|Nurse}} outside rather than run back to {{ci|Nacrene}}. [[Burgh]] will block the northern exit while you trek through the underbrush to chase down [[Team Plasma]].  The fourth and final {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}} will give up the {{DL|List of key items in Generation V|Dragon Skull}} when you defeat him.  [[Gorm]], one of the team's [[Seven Sages]], arrives and prepares to attack you, but is blocked by [[Burgh]] and [[Lenora]].  Faced with two [[Gym Leader]]s, the thugs flee the forest.  Lenora takes back the Dragon Skull you retrieved and rewards you with a {{evostone|Moon Stone}}.  Follow her to the east to find the road, and head north to reach the exit.

The [[Castelia Gym]] specializes with {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon, and the building itself is designed like a giant beehive.  In order to reach [[Burgh]], you need to disengage the six gates by stepping on certain switches.  Each gate will drop when both its posts are lit up.  Two of the four {{tc|Harlequin}}s in the Gym are hiding under the floor, so they spring up when you try to step on their switches.

[[Burgh]]'s {{p|Whirlipede}} and {{p|Leavanny}} are weak to {{t|Fire}}- and {{type2|Flying}} attacks, while his {{p|Dwebble}} is vulnerable to {{t|Water}}- and {{type2|Rock}} moves.  If you can't exploit these weaknesses, an alternative tactic is to use {{TM|70|Flash}} to lower his Pokémon's accuracy. But, his Pokémon know some weak moves.
