| When the player first enters Motostoke and walks a few steps forward, [[Sonia]] will appear, take the player into the Pokémon Center, and give them Leon's [[League Card]]. Upon exiting the Pokémon Center, Sonia will show the player the way to the lift at the end of the main road. The player cannot detour to the left at this time, as the way to the Uniform Shop is blocked by a group of NPCs. [[Leon]] will briefly appear when the player approaches the lift. | | When the player first enters Motostoke, they must largely stick to the main road and cannot leave by one of the northern exits. The way to the Uniform Shop to the left is blocked by a group of NPCs, the path left of Motostoke Stadium is blocked by a group of fans excited for the upcoming [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] opening ceremony, the {{rt|3|Galar}} exit is blocked by a League staff member, and the [[Motostoke Outskirts]] exit is blocked by a tired [[Flying Taxi]] {{p|Corviknight}}. This requires the player to enter Motostoke Stadium. |

| After taking the lift, the player must enter Motostoke Stadium. Attempting to detour to the left causes the player to be blocked by a group of fans excited for the upcoming [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] opening ceremony, while attemping to leave Motostoke for the Outskirts on the right causes the player to be shooed away by a tired [[Flying Taxi]] {{p|Corviknight}}. [[Hop]] will briefly appear and enter the stadium when the player approaches the stadium.
| | The player and Hop sign up for the Gym Challenge and the player picks their uniform number; they are then informed to book a room at the Budew Drop Inn in preparation for the opening ceremony tomorrow. (Upon exiting the stadium and upon approaching the front of the inn, two very brief scenes play where a League staff member shows the player the direction of the inn. After this second scene, NPCs no longer block any part of Motostoke and the whole city becomes accessible. The {{p|Wooloo}} at the [[Wild Area Station]] also no longer block the train tracks at this time.) |

|
| Entering the stadium will begin a cutscene where the player and Hop briefly encounter [[Bede]] for the first time (though he is not named) and the two then present their [[Endorsement]]s to sign up for the Gym Challenge. The player picks their uniform number at this time, and the player is informed that they may book a room at the Budew Drop Inn for the night in preparation for the opening ceremony tomorrow. Upon exiting the stadium and upon approaching the front of the inn, two very brief scenes play where a League staff member shows the player the direction of the inn. (After this second scene, the whole city becomes accesible and NPCs no longer block any part of Motostoke. The {{p|Wooloo}} at the [[Wild Area Station]] also no longer block the train tracks at this time. The player cannot leave Motostoke for {{rt|3|Galar}} on the left due to being blocked by a League staff member.)
| | The inn's check-in desk is blocked by [[Team Yell]] Grunts; talking to any Grunt will have the team offer a battle, which the player may accept or temporarily decline. After all four have been defeated, talking to the receptionist will play a cutscene that automatically progresses to the next morning. (The player's team is healed overnight.) |

| Entering the Budew Drop Inn will cause [[Sonia]] to appear (along with [[Hop]]). The player may explore the inn afterwards, though they cannot check in yet due to four [[Team Yell]] Grunts crowding the reception desk. Talking to any Grunt will have them offer a battle, which the player may accept or temporarily decline. After all four have been defeated, [[Marnie]] will appear and introduce herself for the first time, then the Grunts will leave. The player may now talk to the receptionist to check in; this plays a cutscene that automatically progresses to the next morning. (The player's team is healed overnight.)
| | Upon leaving the inn, a League staff member will offer to escort/warp the player in front of Motostoke Stadium, though the player can decline. After talking to the front desk League staff inside the stadium, the player will automatically change into their uniform; the opening ceremony will then play out. (The entirety of the ceremony is skipped if the player has turned on Skip Movies in the [[Options]].) The player can now head west for {{rt|3|Galar}} after a battle with Hop near the exit. |

| Right after leaving the inn, a League staff member will offer to escort/warp the player in front of Motostoke Stadium, though the player can decline. After entering the stadium and talking to the front desk League staff, the player will automatically change into their uniform. The opening ceremony will then play out, introducing the player to [[Rose]], [[Oleana]], and all of the [[Gym Leader]]s except [[Piers]]. (The entirety of the ceremony is skipped if the player has turned on Skip Movies in the [[Options]].) After the ceremony, [[Leon]] and Rose will briefly appear and meet the player and Hop in person. Upon exiting the stadium, a League staff member will give the player access to the [[Flying Taxi]]s. The player can now head west for {{rt|3|Galar}} after a battle with Hop near the exit.
