Discover wild Pokémon encounters and item locations within the Oreburgh Mine in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. Find Geodude, Zubat, and more!
Alright, let's head into the Oreburgh Mine! This is where you'll start finding some new Pokémon and useful items as you progress. It’s not too complicated, but keep an eye out for everything.
Pokémon Encounters
As you explore the mine, you'll run into a few different Pokémon. Here’s what you can expect to find wandering around:
Wild Pokémon - Ground
| Pokémon | Type | Encounter Rate |
| Geodude | 50% | |
| Onix | 2% | |
| Zubat | 48% |
Geodude and Zubat are pretty common here, so you'll see them a lot. Onix is super rare, so don't be surprised if you don't find one.
Item Locations
There are a few helpful items scattered throughout the mine. Make sure to grab them if you can!
| Item | Location |
| X Defense | 1F - Northeast of the cave. |
| Escape Rope | B1F - Behind rocks down from Worker Mason. |
| Potion | B1F - In the southwest of the mine. |
The X Defense can give you a nice boost in battle, and the Escape Rope is always handy for getting out of caves quickly. Don't forget to check the southwest area on the B1F for a Potion!
Trainer Battles
You'll also encounter a couple of trainers in the mine. Be ready to battle!
Worker Mason
| Pokémon | Level | Type |
| Machop | 9 |
Worker Mason has a Machop at level 9. It’s a good idea to use a Flying-type or Psychic-type Pokémon here if you have one.
Worker Colin
| Pokémon | Level | Type |
| Geodude | 7 | |
| Onix | 7 |
Worker Colin has a couple of Pokémon, both at level 7. He’s got a Geodude and an Onix. Water-type or Grass-type moves will be super effective against both of them.
That’s pretty much it for the Oreburgh Mine! Keep these encounters and items in mind as you explore.
