At the start of the game, the Slumbering Weald is blocked by a closed gate. After the {{player}} and [[Hop]] obtain their [[starter Pokémon]], a {{p|Wooloo}} crashes through the gate, prompting the two to enter the area to rescue it. The game does not allow the player to leave the Slumbering Weald at this time. After the first grass patch and before leaving the third grass patch, the player may talk to Hop any number of times to heal their Pokémon. | |||
Soon after leaving the third grass patch, the player and Hop run into a thick wall of fog, and are suddenly approached by a mysterious Pokémon. None of the player's Pokémon's moves have any effect on it, and they and Hop are soon knocked unconscious as the mysterious Pokémon envelops them in opaque fog. The two wake up and are found soon after by [[Leon]], who also managed to find the runaway Wooloo, and leads everyone out of the forest. The gate closes again at this point, and does not re-open until much later in the game. | |||

In this battle, that Pokémon's name and [[level]] are replaced with ??? and the player only has the option to Fight or Run, although selecting [[escape|run]] only displays the message ''"You can't run away for some reason!"'' and the player's turn is not taken up. All of the player's Pokémon's moves have no effect; if move animations are turned on in the [[options]], the Zacian/Zamazenta will only shimmer slightly in response to any move. The Zacian/Zamazenta does not use any moves; instead, it keeps making the fog in the battle thicker and thicker until the player passes out at the end of the third turn. | ||
None of these Pokémon can be caught, as the player has no [[Poké Ball]]s at this stage of the game. In addition, no wild Pokémon will appear outside of these scripted encounters. This prevents the player from using up all of their starter Pokémon's [[PP]] and selecting {{m|Struggle}} against Zacian or Zamazenta. | None of these Pokémon can be caught, as the player has no [[Poké Ball]]s at this stage of the game.
