Terminus Cave (Japanese: 終の洞窟Terminus Cave) is a cave in eastern Kalos on Route 18. It is the location of the Legendary PokémonZygarde in Pokémon X and Y. Although the player can enter the cave as soon as they reach Route 18, they are not allowed to enter Zygarde's chamber until after entering the Hall of Fame, due to an Ace Trainer who is blocking the way.

Special encounters
Generation VI
A Zygarde appears here after entering the Hall of Fame. If defeated or run from, it respawns after entering the Hall of Fame again. It is coded to never be Shiny.
Ash and his friends arrived at Terminus Cave in Meeting at Terminus Cave!, where they had another encounter with Team Flare. During the confrontation, Squishy was separated from the group, although it was reunited with them in the next episode.
Pokémon Generations
Terminus Cave appeared in The Adventure, where Red and his Pikachu were seen riding a mine cart through the cave while being chased by a wildNoivern. After a brief battle, Pikachu managed to defeat Noivern, allowing it and Red to safely reach the end of the cave, where they encountered a Complete FormeZygarde.
Trivia
In Alola, the layout of Resolution Cave's B1F is identical to Zygarde's chamber's layout in Terminus Cave. In addition, four orb-like items can be found in both caves, with one of them being a hidden Big Nugget. A possible translation for Terminus Cave's Japanese name is "End Cave", Resolution Cave's Japanese name.
