Your Pokemon Emerald journey continues! Navigate Petalburg City, Route 104, and Petalburg Woods. Get tips on items, battles, and catching your first Pokemon with Wally.
Alright, let's get you through Petalburg City and the surrounding routes in Pokemon Emerald. It's a pretty important spot early on, especially with your dad being the Gym Leader!
Walkthrough
- 1As soon as you arrive in Petalburg City, the Pokemon Center is right there. It's always a good idea to pop in and heal your team, especially if you've just come off a tough route.
- 2Head west from the Pokemon Center. You'll see the Gym. Don't worry about challenging the Gym Leader just yet – you're not ready for him, and he's actually your dad, Norman!
- 3Continue west past the Gym. You'll be stopped by a man who will escort you back to the Gym.
- 4Inside, your dad Norman will check out your Pokemon. He'll tell you that you need to train them more because he's too strong for you right now.
- 5After that conversation, a kid named Wally comes in. He wants to catch his first Pokemon, and your dad asks you to help him out.
- 6Your dad gives Wally a Zigzagoon to help him catch his own Pokemon.
- 7Wally heads out to Route 102 (which you've likely passed through already) to catch a Pokemon. He manages to catch a wild Ralts on his first try – pretty lucky, right?
- 8Wally returns to the Gym and gives the Zigzagoon back to Norman.
- 9Once your dad is done talking, leave the Gym.
- 10As you head west out of the city, you'll meet another man, this one wearing sunglasses. He's looking for talented trainers, but he'll leave after a brief chat.
- 11Keep heading west, and you'll find a path leading to Route 104. This is where your adventure continues north!
