After traversing {{rt|215|Sinnoh}} and arriving in Veilstone City, it's time for you to explore the city. This is the home of the [[Veilstone Department Store]], [[Galactic Veilstone Building]], the [[Veilstone Game Corner]], and, of course, the [[Veilstone Gym]].
 
In the house directly north of the Pokémon Center, talk to the man there and he will give you a {{p|Porygon}}. Make sure you have a free slot in your party so you're able to receive it.

===Game Corner===
The building in the southern part of the city with glowing lights on it is the Game Corner. Here, you can collect Coins and then visit the Prize Exchange next door to get valuable items and [[TM]]s. To find the [[Coin Case]], which you need to store the coins in, head in the direction of the Gym. There is a clown in one of the houses nearby who will give you a Coin Case if you get the correct answer in his game of coin toss. Also in the Prize Exchange building is a man who, if you talk to him while having a Pokémon with {{m|Hidden Power}} at the front of your party, will let you know what [[type]] Hidden Power's damage will represent.
 
===Massage Lady===
In the house next to the house where you find the Coin Case is the Massage Lady who will massage one of your Pokémon once per day and also find an [[Accessory]]. The massage also raises the Pokémon's happiness factor.
 
===Veilstone Department Store===
Veilstone has a [[Department store]] in place of a conventional Poké Mart. Take the opportunity to stock up on supplies!
 
Inside, there is a lady to the left of the entrance who will give you a [[Accessory#Special|mask]] to be put in the [[Fashion Case]]. The mask will match Lucas/Dawn's [[starter Pokémon]]. The people at the reception counter on 1F sell items commonly found in [[Poké Mart]]s.

A man behind the counter on 2F will give you the {{DL|Pokétch|Counter}} Pokétch app. [[Battle item]]s and [[vitamin]]s are sold here as well.

On 3F, you can buy [[TM]]s. {{TM|54|False Swipe}} can be useful if you plan to complete your [[Pokédex]], as this attack won't knock out an opponent.
 
[[Secret Base]] [[Goods|decorations]] are sold on 4F.
 
On 5F, a man will give you a [[Sticky Barb]]. [[Drink|Inexpensive healing items]] can be bought from the [[vending machine]]s on this floor, too.

==Veilstone Gym==
[[File:Veilstone Gym Pt.png|right|thumb|275px|Veilstone Gym]]
After exploring Veilstone City, it's time for you to challenge the Gym for your fourth Badge. Before you enter the Gym, you'll encounter [[Professor Rowan]]'s research assistant {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}}. The Veilstone Gym Leader, [[Maylene]], specializes in the {{t|Fighting}} type, and the most powerful Pokémon you'll face is Level 32. Fighting-types are weak to {{t|Psychic}}- and {{t|Flying}}-type attacks, but Maylene's {{p|Lucario}} is also weak to Fighting-, {{t|Fire}}-, and {{t|Ground}}-type attacks.
 
The Gym is a maze consisting of many punching bags that you must push to smash barriers made up of tires and open up new paths. Your key goal in this mission is to aim for the punching bag in the upper left area of the Gym to be able to destroy the barrier that will get you to Maylene.
 
First follow the path on the right moving punching bags and carefully head to the farthest area of the eastern area that you can reach to move the punching bag to first remove the barrier that separates the next area and then again to destroy the top most barrier from the set of three you need to remove to reach Maylene. Then head into the new area which is the west side of the Gym and head to the northwest corner of the Gym and move the punching bag to remove the lower barrier. Then head to the lower part of this area and move the punching bag near some cracks to remove another barrier around the southwest area of the Gym by positioning it to strike from above in the following directions (↑←↓) and lastly carefully use the punching bag there to destroy the middle barrier. Now you can use the path where those three barriers were to reach the punching bag to remove the barrier covering the area where Marlene is and be able to reach her.

Maylene is not too terribly tough, but her Lucario may be a bit of a problem. She'll lead with her Meditite which can use {{m|Fake Out}} to force you to flinch and do some damage. It can use Rock Tomb to counter {{type|Flying}} and is resistant to Confusion due to being a {{type|Psychic}}. A quick flying type like {{p|Staravia}} using {{m|Wing Attack}} or {{m|Aerial Ace}} will take it out easily. Her Machoke is more offensive but should not be too difficult to beat though it can also counter Flying types with Rock Tomb. Last up is Lucario, Maylene's star Pokémon. It has a variety of attacks, but nothing too rough. It can counter {{type|Fire}}s with {{m|Bone Rush}} so it's recommended either {{t|Fighting}} or {{type|Ground}} Pokémon take Lucario out as its {{type|Steel}} characteristics make them resistant to Psychic or Flying-type moves and will only take normal damage from them. Be careful of the signature move of her Gym which her Pokémon have, {{m|Drain Punch}}, which can use a portion of the damage inflicted on your Pokémon to heal themselves, so make sure to take them out quick. Also, Maylene will use Hyper Potions when her Pokémon get weak, so be wary when getting them in the red zone HP-wise.
 
===Team Galactic Multi Battle===
After you defeat [[Maylene]] and earn the {{badge|Cobble}}, [[Professor Rowan]]'s assistant Lucas/Dawn comes up to you and tells you that their Pokédex has been stolen. Upon hearing this, you and the assistant run to the Galactic Warehouse to find two [[Team Galactic]] Grunts. The two challenge you and the assistant to a [[Multi Battle]].

[[File:Pastoria Gym DPPt.png|thumb|275px|Pastoria Gym]]
As you will quickly figure out, this Gym specializes in {{type|Water}}s. {{t|Grass}}- and {{t|Electric}}-types will do well here, but you shouldn't use {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, or {{t|Ground}}-types. The strongest Pokémon here is level 37, so make sure your team is leveled appropriately before challenging the Gym.
The puzzle of the Pastoria Gym may appear complicated at first, having to raise and lower the water level by stepping on buttons in the correct order. In reality, there is only ever a single path that you can take at any one time without going back the way you came. To reach [[Crasher Wake]] (the Gym Leader), go down the entrance stairs, turn left and go up those stairs. You will reach a yellow button. Hit it and the water level drops. Turn right, down the stairs, and go through a narrow passage. There is another narrow passage before you reach some stairs. Climb up to the top, and hit the green button. Climb down and follow the path to another set of stairs. Battle the {{tc|Sailor}} there, and hit the blue button. Follow the platform to the first yellow button and head right, past the stairs to the {{tc|Tuber}}. Battle him, and follow the path right to another Tuber. Battle her, and go on forward. You will eventually find a green button. Hit it, go down the nearby stairs, and hit the yellow button. Go up, then down to the lowest level. The rest is simple; follow the path to a set of stairs, climb up, and hit the blue button. The path to Wake is clear.

Upon defeat, the grunts give back the Pokédex and flee. [[Looker]] then shows up, having heard of the robbery, and is glad you were able to handle the situation. After your partner leaves, Looker then guides you into the warehouse. Inside he finds that the door is locked and states there is nothing he can do now. He does find {{HM|02|Fly}} and you can pick it up. Before leaving, Looker mentions a rumor of Team Galactic moving something important to [[Pastoria City]]. Now that you've completed that task, it's time to head south to {{rt|214|Sinnoh}} after healing up at the Pokémon Center.
Wake leads the fight with {{p|Gyarados}}, who has {{a|Intimidate}}, so lead with [[Special Attack|Special]]-based attackers. It knows Wake's signature move, {{m|Brine}}. Brine does more damage if its target has less than half of its HP left, so be wary and keep your Pokémon healthy. {{m|Waterfall}} will do the most damage and may cause your Pokémon to {{DL|Status condition|Flinch}}. However, one good {{type|Electric}} attack, such as {{m|Spark}} or {{m|Thunder}}, will take it out. Next up is Wake's {{p|Quagsire}}, whose Ground type makes it immune to Electric-type moves. Grass-type attacks are this Pokémon's nightmare, particularly Special attacks due to its weak {{stat|Special Defense}}. It has {{m|Rock Tomb}} which can slow you down, but it doesn't know Brine. {{m|Yawn}} can be annoying, because a Pokémon hit by it will fall asleep on the next turn unless you switch it out. [[Chesto Berry|Chesto Berries]] as held items can be useful in this situation. Last up is his star Pokémon, {{p|Floatzel}}. Floatzel is very fast, and can hit pretty hard, but its defenses are quite low. It has {{m|Ice Fang}} to counter Grass-types, as well as {{m|Aqua Jet}}, a Water-type version of {{m|Quick Attack}}. It too is packing Brine, so stay healthy during the fight. A Pokémon with a good Electric move will do well here.


==Route 214==
After defeating Wake, you'll receive the [[Fen Badge]] that lets you use {{m|Surf}} outside of battle, as well as {{TM|55|Brine}}.
[[File:Sinnoh Route 214 Pt.png|right|thumb|180px|Route 214]]
 
{| class="expandable" align="center" style="background: #{{platinum color}}; {{roundy}}; border: 5px solid #{{platinum color light}};"
After earning the Fen Badge, you'll meet up with Barry again. When Wake leaves the Gym, it turns out that Barry's earlier claim that he's Wake's apprentice isn't true - Wake won't take him on as he believes neither of you need any tutoring. After this exchange Barry mentions a Galactic Grunt with a bomb near the Great Marsh's Observatory Gate. When you meet Barry and Wake at the entrance to the Great Marsh you'll find that the Grunt sets off a small bomb in the Great Marsh as a field test, and you'll have to chase after him while Barry keeps people out of the Great Marsh until Wake can be sure it is safe.

Aside from the Trainers, this is a pretty straightforward route. The [[Maniac Tunnel]] is also located here. The {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}} (necessary for evolving {{p|Gligar}} into {{p|Gliscor}}) is hidden in the lower-right corner of the southern [[long grass]] where {{tc|Collector}} Jamal is. You can't get another Razor Fang until you defeat the {{si|Elite Four}}. Just remember, this evolution only works at night.
Go down the stairs and around the path past the [[Scientist]] and the two [[Ranger]]s. Head up another set of stairs to grab {{TM|62|Silver Wind}} across the narrow bridge. Go north on the wide bridge, {{m|Cut}} your way through some bushes, and collect all the items hidden on the four hills connected by the three narrow log bridges. East of the wide bridge is the house of one of the three [[Move Tutor#Platinum|Move Tutors]] who offers to tutor moves in exchange for [[shard]]s.

[[File:Maniac Tunnel 0-9 Pt.png|left|thumb|180px|Maniac Tunnel with 0-9 Unown]]
Trek through the three large sections of mud, using your [[Dowsing Machine]] to find a number of items hidden in the mud along the way. Make a detour to the north underneath the first narrow wooden bridge to collect the item at the end of this dead end path,
[[File:Maniac Tunnel 10-25 Pt.png|left|thumb|400px|Maniac Tunnel with 10-25 Unown]]
then cut your way through the small trees you just passed and use your bicycle to cross the bridge. Battle your way past the two trainers and find a [[Zinc]] where the path ends in a ledge. Make another detour into the muddy area north of the signpost to find a [[Dawn Stone]] hidden in the mud, then continue west.
[[File:Maniac Tunnel 26-28 Pt.png|left|thumb|400px|Maniac Tunnel with 26-28 Unown]]
By collecting different forms of {{p|Unown}} at the [[Solaceon Ruins]], you can expand the tunnel and also affect the rarity of wild Pokémon here in the Maniac Tunnel. Also by collecting all of the 26 regular Unown the tunnel will be complete and you'll by able to collect the ! and ? Unown in the second floor of the Solaceon Ruins. There is a [[Rare Candy]] outside the second floor which is [[Solaceon Town]] . See [[Appendix:Platinum walkthrough/Section 9#Solaceon Ruins|this section]] for the info on the Solaceon Ruins.

Still on the way to [[Pastoria City]], you arrive at [[Valor Lakefront]]. You can't access [[Lake Valor]] just yet... so why not go to the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]]? There, you will partake in [[Double Battle]]s. If you find your Pokémon are getting weak, go over to the hotel lobby and heal your Pokémon by talking to the man behind the counter. You will also find a lady who lost her [[Suite Key]] and asks you for your help. Go near the entrance to the hotel and use your Pokétch's [[Dowsing Machine]] to find and return it. Some of the items will require the use of the HM move {{m|Rock Climb}}, which you can use after defeating the [[Candice|seventh Gym Leader]] in [[Snowpoint City]].
Unless another player can trade you a {{p|Manaphy}}, you need to visit {{rt|212|Sinnoh}} in order to obtain the National [[Pokédex]]. After leaving [[Hearthome City]], head south to the entrance of the {{si|Pokémon Mansion}}. Once you're done visiting the mansion, cut your way through to find a path leading to {{TM|11|Sunny Day}}. Follow the shoreline of the pond next to the grass to reach the other half of this route.

[[File:Pokémon Mansion DPPt.png|thumb|275px|left|The interior of the mansion]]
The {{si|Pokémon Mansion}} is owned by [[Mr. Backlot]]. It is also the home of the famous [[Trophy Garden]], which is located at its rear. It has four rooms, the most important of them being Mr. Backlot's office, which is where a Pokémon statue guarded by a policeman is located. The guard is on break from 2 A.M. until 6 A.M., leaving you free to touch the statue and get your fingerprints all over it. {{p|Manaphy}}'s data can be recorded (as a seen Pokémon) from the book lying on Mr. Backlot's desk, and it must be done in order to get the [[National Pokédex]]. Other rooms in the mansion have beds, which you can use to rest yourself along with your Pokémon. In the west wing, you may fight the maids in the 5-Maid Knockout Exact-Turn Attack Challenge, in which five maids must be beaten in a certain number of total turns (no more, no less). The prize for beating the challenge is a duel with either {{tc|Lady}} Celeste or {{tc|Rich Boy}} Liam, depending on how many turns you were told to beat the maids in.
 
The western and eastern exits of the mansion are blocked by the maids. Neither of these doorways are functional however, and for your purposes serve only as decoration.

After speaking to Crasher Wake at the entrance to the Great Marsh, the grunt will try to run away. Head to {{rt|213|Sinnoh}} (you'll encounter [[Looker]] there), chasing the Grunt east towards Valor Lakefront. After talking to the man in the hotel lobby and healing up, chase the Grunt all the way to the [[Valor Lakefront]], where he'll finally give up and you can challenge him to a battle near the entrance of [[Lake Valor]]. After defeating the Grunt, you will meet [[Cynthia]] and {{ga|Barry|your rival}} again. He briefly interrupts her to report that the damage to the Great Marsh is not as serious as expected, and Cynthia states that she is worried about the group of {{p|Psyduck}} on {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}. She gives you [[Secret Medicine|SecretPotion]] to cure them of their headaches, and will then tell you the legend about a {{p|Azelf|mirage Pokémon}} that lives inside the lake.
This is the final stretch to [[Pastoria City]]. Only a few Trainers and Pokémon stand in your way! Much like Valor Lakefront, you will have to come back later with Rock Climb to recover a few items. After completing the three areas south of Veilstone, you've finally reached your next destination and the location of your fifth Badge: Pastoria City!

Pastoria Gym

Before you enter the Gym, you will be challenged to a battle with your rival.

Turtwig (Pokémon) If the player chose Turtwig: Chimchar (Pokémon) If the player chose Chimchar: Piplup (Pokémon) If the player chose Piplup:






Pastoria Gym

As you will quickly figure out, this Gym specializes in Water-types. Grass- and Electric-types will do well here, but you shouldn't use Fire-, Rock-, or Ground-types. The strongest Pokémon here is level 37, so make sure your team is leveled appropriately before challenging the Gym.

The puzzle of the Pastoria Gym may appear complicated at first, having to raise and lower the water level by stepping on buttons in the correct order. In reality, there is only ever a single path that you can take at any one time without going back the way you came. To reach Crasher Wake (the Gym Leader), go down the entrance stairs, turn left and go up those stairs. You will reach a yellow button. Hit it and the water level drops. Turn right, down the stairs, and go through a narrow passage. There is another narrow passage before you reach some stairs. Climb up to the top, and hit the green button. Climb down and follow the path to another set of stairs. Battle the Sailor there, and hit the blue button. Follow the platform to the first yellow button and head right, past the stairs to the Tuber. Battle him, and follow the path right to another Tuber. Battle her, and go on forward. You will eventually find a green button. Hit it, go down the nearby stairs, and hit the yellow button. Go up, then down to the lowest level. The rest is simple; follow the path to a set of stairs, climb up, and hit the blue button. The path to Wake is clear.

Pastoria City Gym
The Fen Badge


Wake leads the fight with Gyarados, who has Intimidate, so lead with Special-based attackers. It knows Wake's signature move, Brine. Brine does more damage if its target has less than half of its HP left, so be wary and keep your Pokémon healthy. Waterfall will do the most damage and may cause your Pokémon to Flinch. However, one good Electric-type attack, such as Spark or Thunder, will take it out. Next up is Wake's Quagsire, whose Ground type makes it immune to Electric-type moves. Grass-type attacks are this Pokémon's nightmare, particularly Special attacks due to its weak Special Defense. It has Rock Tomb which can slow you down, but it doesn't know Brine. Yawn can be annoying, because a Pokémon hit by it will fall asleep on the next turn unless you switch it out. Chesto Berries as held items can be useful in this situation. Last up is his star Pokémon, Floatzel. Floatzel is very fast, and can hit pretty hard, but its defenses are quite low. It has Ice Fang to counter Grass-types, as well as Aqua Jet, a Water-type version of Quick Attack. It too is packing Brine, so stay healthy during the fight. A Pokémon with a good Electric move will do well here.

After defeating Wake, you'll receive the Fen Badge that lets you use Surf outside of battle, as well as TM55 (Brine).

After earning the Fen Badge, you'll meet up with Barry again. When Wake leaves the Gym, it turns out that Barry's earlier claim that he's Wake's apprentice isn't true - Wake won't take him on as he believes neither of you need any tutoring. After this exchange Barry mentions a Galactic Grunt with a bomb near the Great Marsh's Observatory Gate. When you meet Barry and Wake at the entrance to the Great Marsh you'll find that the Grunt sets off a small bomb in the Great Marsh as a field test, and you'll have to chase after him while Barry keeps people out of the Great Marsh until Wake can be sure it is safe.

Route 212 (south, optional)

Go down the stairs and around the path past the Scientist and the two Rangers. Head up another set of stairs to grab TM62 (Silver Wind) across the narrow bridge. Go north on the wide bridge, Cut your way through some bushes, and collect all the items hidden on the four hills connected by the three narrow log bridges. East of the wide bridge is the house of one of the three Move Tutors who offers to tutor moves in exchange for shards.

Trek through the three large sections of mud, using your Dowsing Machine to find a number of items hidden in the mud along the way. Make a detour to the north underneath the first narrow wooden bridge to collect the item at the end of this dead end path, then cut your way through the small trees you just passed and use your bicycle to cross the bridge. Battle your way past the two trainers and find a Zinc where the path ends in a ledge. Make another detour into the muddy area north of the signpost to find a Dawn Stone hidden in the mud, then continue west.

Route 212 (north)

Route 212

Unless another player can trade you a Manaphy, you need to visit Route 212 in order to obtain the National Pokédex. After leaving Hearthome City, head south to the entrance of the Pokémon Mansion. Once you're done visiting the mansion, cut your way through to find a path leading to TM11 (Sunny Day). Follow the shoreline of the pond next to the grass to reach the other half of this route.

Pokémon Mansion

The Pokémon Mansion
The interior of the mansion

The Pokémon Mansion is owned by Mr. Backlot. It is also the home of the famous Trophy Garden, which is located at its rear. It has four rooms, the most important of them being Mr. Backlot's office, which is where a Pokémon statue guarded by a policeman is located. The guard is on break from 2 A.M. until 6 A.M., leaving you free to touch the statue and get your fingerprints all over it. Manaphy's data can be recorded (as a seen Pokémon) from the book lying on Mr. Backlot's desk, and it must be done in order to get the National Pokédex. Other rooms in the mansion have beds, which you can use to rest yourself along with your Pokémon. In the west wing, you may fight the maids in the 5-Maid Knockout Exact-Turn Attack Challenge, in which five maids must be beaten in a certain number of total turns (no more, no less). The prize for beating the challenge is a duel with either Lady Celeste or Rich Boy Liam, depending on how many turns you were told to beat the maids in.

The western and eastern exits of the mansion are blocked by the maids. Neither of these doorways are functional however, and for your purposes serve only as decoration.

Route 213 and Valor Lakefront

Valor Lakefront
Hotel Grand Lake, part of Valor Lakefront

After speaking to Crasher Wake at the entrance to the Great Marsh, the grunt will try to run away. Head to Route 213 (you'll encounter Looker there), chasing the Grunt east towards Valor Lakefront. After talking to the man in the hotel lobby and healing up, chase the Grunt all the way to the Valor Lakefront, where he'll finally give up and you can challenge him to a battle near the entrance of Lake Valor. After defeating the Grunt, you will meet Cynthia and your rival again. He briefly interrupts her to report that the damage to the Great Marsh is not as serious as expected, and Cynthia states that she is worried about the group of Psyduck on Route 210. She gives you SecretPotion to cure them of their headaches, and will then tell you the legend about a mirage Pokémon that lives inside the lake.
