Victory Road - Cave Ruins¶

The first area of Victory Road is a cave full of ruins. Head north over the bridge, then west across the next bridge. After crossing, you’ll encounter the first trainer, an Ace Trainer, no less.

Trainer Battle: Ace Trainer¶

Continue west across the next bridge until you reach the boulder. Use Strength on it and move it west, then push it north into the hole. Move over the boulder and continue until you reach the bridge heading north. Move over it and take on the Psychic on the other side.

Trainer Battle: Psychic¶

From there, move north up the stairs so that you’re back outside.

Victory Road - Forest¶

We’re in a forest now! Breathe in the fresh air. Doesn’t it feel good? Looks like we’re not alone though, as an Ace Trainer awaits ahead.

Trainer Battle: Ace Trainer¶

Once she’s been dealt with, you can either follow the path around from the north-west or north-east. If you head north-west, you’ll need to Cut down a shrub to get past. Going north-east meanwhile will throw you in the path of an Ace Trainer. Either way, you’re not getting past without the help of Pokemon!

Before facing the Ace Trainer though, head north-east through the Dark Grass to find an Ultra Ball waiting for you at the end.

Trainer Battle: Ace Trainer¶

Past the Ace Trainer, you’ll find the forest exit to the north. Before leaving the forest though, if you have Cut, head west then south through the Tall Grass. Use Cut to mow down the shrub and claim the item beyond, which turns out to be an ever-useful Full Restore . Now you can use the north exit!

Victory Road - Outside¶

Ahead of you is a bridge and a Veteran waiting for some action. If you go east, you’ll find some grass and a shore that you can use to Surf onto the river. However there’s nothing very exciting there, so instead go forward and meet the Veteran.

Trainer Battle: Veteran¶

Past the Veteran, there’s a Doctor besides a cave. You know the drill!

Trainer Battle: Doctor¶

After beating the Doctor, he’ll heal your Pokemon . You can come back and talk to him at any time to have your Pokemon healed. Next, head east and grab the Max Repel sitting cosily in the grass. Then return to the Doctor and head on inside the cave.
