Appendix:Diamond and Pearl walkthrough/Section 12: Difference between revisions

This route is probably one of the longest routes in the Sinnoh region, so before entering, '''buy a lot of healing items'''.

The southern part of this route is rainy. There will be rainstorms and thunderstorms on some days. Near the eastern end of the route is a house. There is a woman who used to work in [[Hoenn]]'s [[Weather Institute]] who will trade [[TM]]s for [[weather]]-changing [[move]]s for [[shard]]s. The route is also full of narrow paths suspended in the air. To get across them, you must ride a [[Bicycle]] over the narrow path. Near [[Pastoria City]], you may get stuck in the bog, just like the [[marsh tile|marshy areas]] in Great Marsh. The northern part of this route features Sinnoh's {{si|Pokémon Mansion}}. You can catch a Pichu or a Pikachu there.

Near the stairs, an old woman will tell you that a spaceman wants to blow up the town due to him thinking it is not important. Go down the stairs, then head north. You will find a Galactic Grunt standing in front of the Celestic Ruins entrance. Talk to him, then say "Yes" to battle him. After you win, he will leave, and the old woman will come and talk to you. Give the Old Charm to her. She will introduce herself as Cynthia's grandmother, then tell you to go inside the ruins.

There are some Trainers for you to fight. You can also get to [[Mt. Coronet]] here, but as you are still unable to use {{m|Strength}} on the field, you can't get through.

{{type|Normal}} Pokémon will be completely immune to any of the Ghost-type attacks. {{type|Dark}} moves like {{m|Bite}} or {{m|Crunch}}, as well as your own Ghost-type moves like {{m|Shadow Ball}} (you should have picked up the [[TM]] for this move on {{rt|210}}), are your best bet. Do not try launching any Normal-type (you should have known this already) or {{type|Ground}} attacks on Fantina's Pokémon, because their type or ability make those moves useless. Be aware that Fantina's Pokémon have moves that may catch your Pokémon off guard with their secondary effects. Her {{p|Drifblim}} has {{m|Ominous Wind}} that may boost all of its stats after attacking. Her {{p|Gengar}} has {{m|Poison Jab}} that may poison your Pokémon after attacking as well as {{m|Spite}} to reduce PP of your Pokémon's last used move by 4. Fantina's strongest Pokémon {{p|Mismagius}} is at Level 36, and has {{m|Psybeam}} and {{m|Magical Leaf}}, which are {{type|Psychic}} and {{type|Grass}} moves respectively, so watch out. Psybeam can cause confusion, while Magical Leaf never misses. In addition, both Gengar and Mismagius have {{m|Confuse Ray}}, which will confuse your Pokémon and make it much more difficult to land an attack.

When you beat her, Fantina is very surprised, but all the same, hands you over the Relic Badge, as well as {{TM|65|Shadow Claw}}. With that Badge, you are now able to use {{HM|3|Surf}} on the field.
