After traversing {{rt|215|Sinnoh}} and arriving in Veilstone City, it's time for you to explore the city. Veilstone City is the home of the [[Veilstone Department Store]], [[Galactic Veilstone Building]], the [[Veilstone Game Corner]], and, of course, the [[Veilstone Gym]].


In the house right above the Pokémon Center talk to the man there and he will give you a {{p|Porygon}}. Make sure to have a free slot in your party to be able to receive it.

===Game Corner===
|{{Party/Single
In the southern part of the city in the house with the glowing lights is the Game Corner. Here you can collect coins and then head to the house next to it which is where the Prize Exchange is. To find the Coin Case to store these coins head in the direction of the Gym right to where there are two nearby houses and head to the one that is further to the right. Then compete in the campaign clowns game of coin toss and once you get the right answer you will get the Coin Case. Also in the Prize Exchange building there is a man where if you talk to him and you have a Pokémon that knows {{m|Hidden Power}} at the front of your party, he'll let you know what [[type]] Hidden Power's damage will represent, unlike the previous Pokémon games where it was impossible to know this without testing.

===Massage Lady===
|headcolor=FFE683
In the house next to the house where you find the Coin Case is the Massage Lady who will once per day massage your Pokémon and also find an [[Accessory]] for dressing up your Pokémon for [[Contests]]. The massage can also help raise the Pokémon's happiness factor.

===[[Veilstone Gym]]===
[[File:Pastoria Gym DPPt.png|thumb|275px|Pastoria Gym]]
[[File:Veilstone Gym DP.png|thumb|300px|Veilstone 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.
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 specializes in the {{type|Fighting}}. The Gym is a maze consisted of many punching bags that must be pushed by you 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 Marlene but first you have to destroy three barriers positioned in a row to reach it.  


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.  
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.

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 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.
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 [[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.


=== Team Galactic Tag Battle ===
After defeating Wake, you'll receive the [[Fen Badge]] that lets you use {{m|Surf}} outside of battle, as well as {{TM|55|Brine}}.
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 none other than two [[Team Galactic]] Grunts. The two challenge you and the assistant to a tag battle.
 
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.

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.

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 they 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 to {{rt|214|Sinnoh}}.
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.

Aside from the Trainers, this is a pretty straightforward route.  The [[Maniac Tunnel]] is also located here. One important thing to do here is that when you are around the southern tall grass where Collector Jamal is to find the {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}} which is a hidden item and is located in the lower right corner where there is no tall grass. This is the only change of being able to obtain a Razor Fang for evolving {{p|Gligar}} into {{p|Gliscor}} since you won't be able to get another one until after defeating the Elite Four. Just remember this evolution only works at night.

== [[Valor Lakefront]] ==
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:Valor Lakefront Pt.png|thumb|left|500px|Valor Lakefront]]
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 Battles]]. If you find your Pokémon are getting weak, go over to the hotel and heal your Pokémon. 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 it and return it continue on your way. Some of the items will require the use of the HM move {{m|Rock Climb}} which you can use after defeating the seventh Gym leader in [[Snowpoint City]].

== Route 213 ==
[[File:Pokémon Mansion DPPt.png|thumb|275px|left|The interior of the mansion]]
[[File:Route 213.jpg|thumb|250px|Route 213]]
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.


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.
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.

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.
