Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Upon arriving in Mahogany Town, heal your Pokémon at the Pokémon Center. The Gym is currently inaccessible.
  2. 2
    Head northeast to Route 43. You will encounter a Trainer near a body of water.
  3. 3
    After defeating the Trainer, use 'Surf' to cross the water to the west and find a Bitter Berry tree.
  4. 4
    Return across the water and follow the grassy path to find another Trainer.
  5. 5
    After defeating this Trainer, head south to rejoin the path from the gatehouse.
  6. 6
    Alternatively, use the Gatehouse Path: pay $1,000 to pass through. This fee is automatically deducted.
  7. 7
    On the other side of the gatehouse, find a Max Ether to the west.
  8. 8
    Head north. You will find two paths; choose either the grassy or non-grassy path.

    Continue north past Trainers until you reach the northeastern part of the Route, near a sign.

    From here, head southwest to a small pond. Defeat the Fisherman.
  11. 11
    Go west and then north along the path, which leads to a secluded part of the Lake of Rage.
  12. 12
    Follow the path and pass some ledges. To the east, examine the last tile to find a Full Restore.
  13. 13
    Go west and follow the path. After using 'Cut' on a tree, you will reach a fork.
  14. 14
    The west path leads to a Rare Candy at its end.
