Routes 132, 133, and 134

Route 132
Route 133
Route 134

The waters of Routes 132, 133, and 134 hold strong ocean currents that make travel difficult. While moving primarily westbound, these currents can send you sailing in almost any direction. This makes it necessary to revisit the area in order to explore every island.


Northern path

Ride the central currents to Swimmer Gilbert, then sail westward to reach a Rare Candy opposite Black Belt Kiyo on the northwest island. From here, Surf westward through the northern shallows of Route 133 to reach the north side of the route's northwest island. Collect the Star Piece here, then sail west to the calm waters on Route 134's north side. Take the current south of here to reach the large, thin island. Fight Black Belt Hitoshi and Battle Girl Reyna, collect the nearby Carbos, then Surf west to reach the shallows outside Slateport City.

Central path

Ride the southern currents to the southeast island to fight Fisherman Ronald. Wade into the waters off the north end of the shallows to follow the current to Black Belt Kiyo on the northwest island. Sail westward to ride the current to the southern of two shallows on Route 133, where you'll need to fight Experts Conor and Mollie before collecting the Big Pearl there. Continue westward to reach the south side of Route 133's northwest island, and battle Bird Keeper Beck. Sail west again to battle Sailor Hudson in the shallows of Route 134's largest island. Head back into the water to follow the current to Slateport City.

To the Depths

Ride the southern currents to fight Fisherman Ronald on the crescent-shaped island, then sail westward to a calm patch of water surrounded by shallows. Grab the Protein, then follow the currents westward to be funneled through a bottleneck; this leads to calm waters with two Swimmers, Debra and Franklin. Pass through the rocky southern islet, collecting the Max Revive along the way, to reach a rectangular patch of shallow water situated between Routes 133 and 134. Step into the water from the west-central side to reach a deep, dark pit of water surrounded by a ring of rocks. Dive beneath the waves and follow the underwater path southward. The markings on the nearby wall are an ancient form of writing, and translate to Go up here. Surface from this point to emerge in an ancient ruin known as the Sealed Chamber.

Sealed Chamber, Back Room

Sealed Chamber

The Sealed Chamber is a mysterious ruin located in the depths of Route 134. The many stone tablets positioned around the chamber feature the same mysterious writing that was found near the underwater entrance. Solving some of Hoenn's oldest mysteries hinges on deciphering this age-old system.

Entrance

The first chamber holds ten stone tablets that act as a key to decoding this ancient writing system, known as Braille. These 28 characters correspond to the 26 letters of the alphabet, as well as the comma and period. Inspect the markings on the cavern's north wall to reveal a phrase, which translates to Dig here. Using the field move causes the wall to fall away, granting you access to a second cavern.

Back Room

The central ruins are encircled by six more stone tablets which tell of a powerful Pokémon that was sealed away. The message on the north wall reads, First comes Wailord. Last comes Relicanth. Relicanth can be found only in a few underwater areas, while Wailord's pre-evolved form, Wailmer, can be found in many areas with the Good Rod or Super Rod. Position these Pokémon in their respective places in your party and examine the wall again. This causes a mighty earthquake to rock the Sealed Chamber, while the sound of doors opening echoes from somewhere far away. Three separate ruins have now been opened, and each one holds a legendary Pokémon!
