Challenger's Cave: Difference between revisions

'''Challenger's Cave''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|修行の岩屋|しゅぎょうのいわや}}''' ''Training Cavern'') is a cave located in the western half of the [[Unova]] region. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, a {{tc|Black Belt}} appears to guard the entrance of this cave, allowing the player to pass and explore the cave if he/she has defeated the [[Elite Four]] and [[Team Plasma]]. It can be accessed at {{rt|9|Unova}}.  

During the two year gap between Black and White and {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, the cave entrance has collapsed.  

Challenger's Cave appears to be carved out of a slight hill, each level of the cave being larger than the one above it. The cave is very dark, so {{m|Flash}} is required to easily navigate the cave. An underground stream divides the lowest level into eastern and western sections with a ledge initially preventing access to most of the western section. The eastern section can be reached by crossing the stream at its northern end with {{m|Surf}}. The eastern section is a winding path leading southwards over some bridges with a final bridge running east-west allowing access to the south western part of the cave. The southern end of the stream, blocked at the northern end by some rocks can be accessed by surfing east of the female {{tc|Veteran}}.

* According to Ace Trainer Beverly, there is a story that states that a [[legendary Pokémon]] is said to live in this cave. This legendary Pokémon was training its student Pokémon. However, there is no known legendary Pokémon to be found in Challenger's Cave.

<!--Don't add speculation about the legendary Pokémon.-->

* Veteran Shaun appears in {{2v2|Black|White|2}} after the collapse of the Challenger's Cave, moving to [[Wellspring Cave]], and Veteran Julia moves to [[Twist Mountain]].

** However, Shaun's Pokémon change levels, as his {{p|Snorlax}} has dropped a [[Level]] in [[Key System#Difficulty|Normal Mode]], while Julia has a set of new Pokémon.
