Learn about Pacifidlog Town in Pokemon Emerald, including how to get TM27 Return or TM21 Frustration and trade for Horsea.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Heal your Pokemon at the Pokemon Center.
  2. 2
    Speak to the person in the Pokemon Center who can teach one of your Pokemon the move Explosion, which deals high damage but causes the user to faint.
  3. 3
    Exit the Pokemon Center and head south.
  4. 4
    Take the left path and enter the house.
  5. 5
    Speak to the man inside; he will give you either TM27: Return (if the top Pokemon in your party has high happiness) or TM21: Frustration (if the top Pokemon has low happiness). You can receive one of these TMs daily, and can obtain both over time.
  6. 6
    Leave this house and head east to the next house.
  7. 7
    In the back of this house, a man will trade you his Horsea (which comes with Wave Mail) for your Bagon.
  8. 8
    Head to the house east of the trade house. The old man looking out the window can tell you if Mirage Island is visible.
  9. 9
    Mirage Island appears randomly on Route 130 and is the only place to find wild Wynaut and a Leichi Berry. Check back daily to see if the old man can spot it.
  10. 10
    Return to Route 131 and travel east until you reach the trainers Kevin and Talia.
  11. 11
    From Kevin and Talia, head north and go through the opening between the rocks.
  12. 12
    Follow the path until you reach a ledge, then hop down and enter the cave entrance.
  13. 13
    Go up both sets of stairs, through the next opening, and you will be in front of Sky Pillar.
Tips
  • The move Explosion automatically faints the user after use.
  • TM27: Return's power increases with higher Pokemon happiness.
  • TM21: Frustration's power increases with lower Pokemon happiness.
  • The trade for Horsea is generally considered a bad deal unless you have a spare Bagon.
  • Mirage Island is extremely rare; check back daily for a chance to find it.
  • The old man's sighting of Mirage Island is the only indication of its current appearance.
