Special encounters

Getting there

  • Safari Zone (Hoenn): You need the Pokeblock Case from the Lilycove contest hall, and pay the entry fee at the gate on Route 121.
  • Pattern Bush: Needs the Rainbow Pass, which comes from the Celio quest: finish the Tri-Pass islands, get the National Pokedex (it opens when you beat any Champion), bring Celio the Ruby from the Ruby Path cave in Mt. Ember, and he swaps your Tri-Pass for the Rainbow Pass. The Seagallop then sails to every Sevii island.
  • Valley Windworks: Drifloon (level 15) appears only on Fridays (the game clock), once Team Galactic has been cleared out of the Windworks. One chance only.
  • Mt. Silver: Mt. Silver is west of the gatehouse between Route 26 and Route 28. The guard lets you through only after you have beaten all four Champions (Hoenn, Kanto, Sinnoh and Johto).
  • Mt. Silver Cave: Mt. Silver is west of the gatehouse between Route 26 and Route 28. The guard lets you through only after you have beaten all four Champions (Hoenn, Kanto, Sinnoh and Johto).

Levels are this area's own. In your first region they stay as shown; in a region you open later they are raised to match your progress, unless you started that region fresh. See levels.
