Verdant Cavern (Japanese: 茂みの洞窟 Verdant Cavern) is a location on Melemele Island in Alola, located northeast of Route 2. It is the location of the trial of Ilima.

Trial

The trial begins as soon as the player enters Verdant Cavern; however, they can leave at any time, although this will reset the trial. Once the player has completed the requirements to access the Totem's Den, they can leave at any time without resetting the trial.

In this trial, the player must find and battle two Yungoos^S/Alolan Rattata^M and a/an Gumshoos^S/Alolan Raticate^M. Along the way, the player will face two Team Skull Grunts and battle one of them. Once defeated, the two grunts will inadvertently help the player finish the trial.

In the battle with the Totem Pokémon, it will call its ally on its first turn; once the ally is defeated, the Totem Pokémon cannot call it again.

After defeating the Totem Pokémon, the player will be greeted by Ilima for completing the trial and will receive a Normalium Z as a reward. After completing the trial, wild Pokémon will appear in Verdant Cavern as dust clouds emerging from the dens and as cave tile encounters.
