{{rt|222|Sinnoh}} is the path from [[Valor Lakefront]] to [[Sunyshore City]]. It's worth noting that it's also the only location where you can find a wild {{p|Electabuzz}}. The two houses on the beach are not essential to visit, but the one on the left is a {{p|Pikachu}} fan club. One of the Pikachu inside is actually a [[Poké Kid]] who will battle the player using two Pikachu of her own! The other house has a Fisherman inside who is looking for a giant {{p|Remoraid}} that is larger than 23.7 inches. If you show him one then he'll give you a {{ball|Net}}.
 
Also on this route is the final [[Honey]] tree you'll find in the game. The man at the end of the cliff will give you {{TM|56|Fling}}. If you ever use Fling in battle, be aware that '''the user's held item will be lost forever''' upon use (except in the {{si|Battle Frontier}} later on). Make sure to face the [[Fisherman|Fishermen]] on the beach, as one of them has a {{p|Feebas}}, which is a hard to spot Pokémon that you will need to see to complete your [[Sinnoh]] [[Pokédex]]. Once you are done here, head through the gatehouse to reach Sunyshore City.

When you enter the city, you'll encounter [[Flint (Elite Four)|Flint]] of the [[Elite Four]], who asks if you can try to cheer up his friend, Sunyshore's Gym Leader [[Volkner]], who has been bored lately from the lack of excitement. You can explore around the city if you want, but before you can challenge the Gym you need to find Volkner at the lighthouse. Also, on the beach in the northern area of town, you can encounter [[Jasmine]], a Gym Leader from [[Johto]]. It's most important to talk to her after you beat Volkner, though, because she will then give you {{HM|07|Waterfall}}.
 
===Sunyshore Market===
The building that is slightly north of the Poké Mart is the [[Sunyshore Market]]. Here, you can buy [[Seal]]s for decorating your Poké Balls if you have a [[Seal Case]]. There is also a woman here that will give you the Effort Ribbon to your lead Pokémon if they have [[Effort Values]] that equal 510.
 
===Pokétch developer===
In the house on the cliff on the eastern side of town, accessible through {{m|Rock Climb}}, is a man that will give you three new Pokétch apps based on the [[Nature]] of your Pokémon that are in your current [[party]].
 
*If you have a Pokémon with a '''Serious''' Nature inside your Party, you will get the {{DL|Pokétch|Calendar|Calendar App}}.
*If you have a Pokémon with a '''Naive''' Nature inside your Party, you will get the {{DL|Pokétch|Dot Artist|Dot Artist App}}.
*If you have a Pokémon with a '''Quirky''' Nature inside your Party, you will get the {{DL|Pokétch|Roulette|Roulette App}}.
 
Also, southwest of this house is a {{evostone|Thunderstone}}.
 
===Julia's House===
The right-hand house in the northeastern corner of the city belongs to a woman named Julia. Visit her daily to obtain a [[Ribbon]]. The Ribbon you receive is dependent on which day of the week it is. She does not give out a ribbon on the first visit.
 
===Vista Lighthouse===
The large building in the southeastern corner of the city is the [[Vista Lighthouse]]. First, use the [[Dowsing Machine]] to find a hidden {{DL|Plate|Zap Plate}} here. Inside, talk to Volkner and you'll leave him convinced to accept your challenge at the Gym.
===Sunyshore Gym===

You'll need to be a bit diverse in your type matching with both {{t|Grass}} and {{type|Ground}} Pokémon as Volkner's Pokémon are equipped with moves to counter their weaknesses. Having Ground-type Pokémon like {{p|Hippowdon}}, {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Mamoswine}} or {{p|Steelix}} will help. Volkner's {{p|Jolteon}} is equipped with {{m|Iron Tail}} to counter Mamoswine or ground-types with {{type|Rock}} characteristics. Besides the rock-types with their high defenses, Quagsire or Steelix could also bring it down. {{p|Raichu}} and {{p|Luxray}} are equipped to deal with their weakpoints but Quagsire should have no problems. Unless if you can take it out quickly, do not use {{p|Gliscor}} or other Pokémon that suffer a dual type weakness to {{type|Ice}}s when facing Luxray. Volkner's star Pokémon {{p|Electivire}} has {{m|Fire Punch}} to counter Steelix or Grass Pokémon, but those Ground-types with Rock-type characteristics can easily beat it such as with {{p|Rhydon}}.
While all of Volkner's Pokémon are weak to {{t|Ground}}, some are equipped with moves to cover their weaknesses. Most Ground Pokémon will have no problem with {{p|Jolteon}}, but {{p|Raichu}}'s {{m|Focus Blast}} and {{m|Signal Beam}} might be threatening. Unless you can take out Luxray quickly, do not use anything that suffers a dual weakness to {{t|Ice}}, such as {{p|Torterra}}, when facing Luxray. Volkner's star Pokémon {{p|Electivire}} has {{m|Fire Punch}} to cover {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Bug}}, and {{t|Steel}}. It may defeat one of your Pokémon with {{m|Giga Impact}}, but that prevents Electivire from moving the next turn.  


Once you beat Volkner he is so happy for this exciting battle, he gives you the Beacon Badge, which allows you to use Waterfall outside of battle. Now that you have all eight Badges, any Pokémon of any level will obey you. He'll also give you {{TM|57|Charge Beam}}, a damaging electric type move that has a 70% chance of raising the users Sp. Attack by one level. Now head to Jasmine again and {{ga|Barry}} will appear. He will acknowledge his new purpose for getting stronger, pointing out that he'll challenge you later when he does get stronger. Jasmine, who is touched by this conversation, will give you {{HM|07|Waterfall}}. While you can now head north to the {{si|Pokémon League}}, let's make a quick pitstop to Mt. Coronet to pick up some important items.
Once you beat Volkner, he will be so glad that he was able to have fun that he gives you the {{badge|Beacon}}, which allows you to use {{m|Waterfall}} outside of battle. Now that you have all eight Badges, all of your Pokémon will [[obedience|obey you]], regardless of level. He'll also give you {{TM|57|Charge Beam}}, a damaging electric type move that has a 70% chance of raising the users Sp. Attack by one stage. Now head to Jasmine again and {{ga|Barry|your rival}} will appear and tell you that he wants to get stronger. Jasmine, who is touched by this conversation, will give you {{HM|07|Waterfall}}. With this new HM, you can now head north to the {{si|Pokémon League}}.


==Mt. Coronet South Side (third visit)==
==Now that you can use Waterfall (optional)==
[[File:Mt Coronet 1F tunnel Pt.png|left|thumb|180px|Tunnel]]
You can pick up several items that were not accessible before.
''Before heading out, make sure that you have Pokémon with the HMs {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Waterfall}}, {{m|Strength}}, {{m|Rock Smash}}, and {{m|Rock Climb}}.''

On {{rt|208|Sinnoh}}, {{DL|Vitamin|Carbos}} can now be obtained. Backtrack your way to the area where you were first outside in the summit earlier. ''(See {{DL|Appendix:Platinum walkthrough/Section 17|Mt. Coronet South Side (second visit)|this section}} for a refresher on how to get there.)'' Then, use the eastern entrance to the part of Mt. Coronet 4F below the waterfall. Climb the waterfall and go inside the cave to find the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Adamant Orb}} and the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Lustrous Orb}} (as well as the hidden {{DL|Plate|Stone Plate}}). You will need both Orbs to catch {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} later on.

On {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}, the {{DL|Plate|Meadow Plate}} and {{DL|Incense|Wave Incense}} can also be obtained. Return to Sunyshore City and head north via the use of {{m|Surf}} to reach {{rt|223|Sinnoh}}.

This should be a straightforward water route since all you need are {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Waterfall}}, and maybe an Electric- and/or Grass-type Pokémon. You can catch a {{p|Mantyke}} here, but remember that you need a {{p|Remoraid}} in your party for it to evolve into {{p|Mantine}}. At the northern end, you will be at the {{si|Pokémon League}}.

To get ready for {{OBP|Victory Road|Sinnoh}}, make sure you include Pokémon that have the HM moves {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Strength}}, {{m|Rock Smash}}, {{m|Waterfall}}, and {{m|Rock Climb}}, since you will need them to help with navigating through this area. Don't forget to challenge every trainer you see since a few of their Pokémon, such as {{p|Dusknoir}} or {{p|Tangrowth}}, cannot be seen anywhere else.

Using Strength and Rock Smash, carefully move the boulder and maneuver your bike carefully in fourth gear (faster speed) to jump over the bike ledge. Then switch to third gear (slower speed) and jump over the bike ledge to find a Max Elixir. Now travel to the southern part of the room while smashing rocks and moving boulders (make sure to move those boulders very carefully to be able to progress successfully).
 
Use the nearby stairs to return to 1F, then quickly head back to 2F. You can now move the nearby boulder in a new direction that will allow you to access a hidden area. By going through the smashing rocks/movable boulders/bike ledges in this area you can find some more items including {{TM|71|Stone Edge}}. Now return to those stairs you just used to get back to 1F.

Sunyshore Gym

First Room
Third Room
Second Room

At the front of the Gym, you will see Flint, who notes that Volkner seems to be excited to battle you and reminds you to help reignite Volkner's passion for battling before departing for the Pokémon League.

Before challenging, make sure that your team is healed. The highest-leveled Pokémon you'll be facing is Level 50. Volkner specializes in Electric-types, which are weak only to Ground-type moves. Ground-types are also immune to Electric attacks, so use that to your advantage! Grass- and Dragon-types resist Electric attacks, but it's not a good idea to use Water- or Flying-types here.

Being the final Gym in Sinnoh, this one has is the most complex puzzle. This one involves hitting switches on the gear-like platforms to rotate them and make the correct path through. In the first room, hit the green switch on the platform on the right once. Then head for the switch on the left and hit it once to reach the next room.

In the second room, go for the nearby blue switch to the left and hit it three times. You can then cross the drawbridge near the stairs and get to the blue switch in the upper left hand corner. Hit that switch then the nearby green switch to get the drawbridge around the right wall ready so now you can go to the third room.

For the third and final room, hit the nearby red switch once and then the one that is nearby to the left to be able to pass the drawbridge on the left wall. Then follow the path to the green switch and hit it twice then hit the blue switch once and follow the path to use the drawbridge on the right wall and return to the first part of this room. Touch the first red switch you used again and backtrack past the right drawbridge again and you'll find the red switch moved the revolving platforms to where you now can reach Volkner.

Sunyshore City Gym
The Beacon Badge



While all of Volkner's Pokémon are weak to Ground, some are equipped with moves to cover their weaknesses. Most Ground Pokémon will have no problem with Jolteon, but Raichu's Focus Blast and Signal Beam might be threatening. Unless you can take out Luxray quickly, do not use anything that suffers a dual weakness to Ice, such as Torterra, when facing Luxray. Volkner's star Pokémon Electivire has Fire Punch to cover Grass, Ice, Bug, and Steel. It may defeat one of your Pokémon with Giga Impact, but that prevents Electivire from moving the next turn.

Once you beat Volkner, he will be so glad that he was able to have fun that he gives you the Beacon Badge, which allows you to use Waterfall outside of battle. Now that you have all eight Badges, all of your Pokémon will obey you, regardless of level. He'll also give you TM57 (Charge Beam), a damaging electric type move that has a 70% chance of raising the users Sp. Attack by one stage. Now head to Jasmine again and your rival will appear and tell you that he wants to get stronger. Jasmine, who is touched by this conversation, will give you HM07 (Waterfall). With this new HM, you can now head north to the Pokémon League.

Now that you can use Waterfall (optional)

You can pick up several items that were not accessible before.

Route 208

Route 210

Mt. Coronet

Route 223

Route 223

Route 223 should be a straightforward water route since all you need are Surf, Waterfall, and maybe an Electric- and/or Grass-type Pokémon. You can catch a Mantyke here, but remember that you need a Remoraid in your party for it to evolve into Mantine. At the northern end is the Pokémon League.

Pokémon League (south)

Entrance to Victory Road

Climb the waterfall to the Pokémon League and enter the Pokémon Center. Prepare for a long journey; this is the last stop before Victory Road, a long and difficult challenge.

Victory Road

To get ready for Victory Road, make sure you include Pokémon that have the HM moves Surf, Strength, Rock Smash, Waterfall, and Rock Climb, since you will need them to help with navigating through this area. Don't forget to challenge every trainer you see since a few of their Pokémon, such as Dusknoir or Tangrowth, cannot be seen anywhere else.

1F

Use the first Rock Climb ledge to reach TM41 (Torment), then climb back up and travel further down to find another Rock Climb ledge. Use it and follow the path until you reach the western wall of the chamber. Before you go upstairs, follow the path straight ahead. Examine the rock to find a hidden nugget. Use the stairs to reach 2F.

2F

Using Strength and Rock Smash, carefully move the boulder and maneuver your bike carefully in fourth gear (faster speed) to jump over the bike ledge. Then switch to third gear (slower speed) and jump over the bike ledge to find a Max Elixir. Now travel to the southern part of the room while smashing rocks and moving boulders (make sure to move those boulders very carefully to be able to progress successfully).

Use the nearby stairs to return to 1F, then quickly head back to 2F. You can now move the nearby boulder in a new direction that will allow you to access a hidden area. By going through the smashing rocks/movable boulders/bike ledges in this area you can find some more items including TM71 (Stone Edge). Now return to those stairs you just used to get back to 1F.

1F

Use the nearby Rock Climb ledge and carefully follow the path to reach the stairs for B1F.

B1F

Using Surf head to the nearby trainer and then from the pool on the right, follow the path in the southern area to briefly return to 1F to find a Rare Candy. Now head for the north area and use Waterfall to climb the waterfall. Then head for the next waterfall and descend down it find TM59 (Dragon Pulse) before climbing back up.

Once back up follow the path to the west to find some stairs to return to 1F.

1F

From the stairs follow the path until you see the path leading down and head in that direction. Now head left to another Rock Climb ledge and from there you can briefly return to 2F to find TM79 (Dark Pulse). If you go up the stairs near the old man, the path leads to a blocked-off doorway that is inaccessible until after you've defeated the Elite Four.

Near the stairs to the left is a path that leads to the Razor Claw which evolves Sneasel into Weavile. The Rock Climb ledge that is on the right hand cliff near the one you used earlier will lead you out of Victory Road and into the Pokémon League.
