Pokémon world locations

The Icy Cave (Japanese: 氷柱の空洞 Icicle Hollow) is a type of hideaway seen in the Grand Underground. It can only be accessed after the player obtains the Explorer Kit in Eterna City from the Underground Man, and features Pokémon that roam the cave freely, instead of being found in tall grass.

Geography

Icy Caves are snowy, ice pillar and rock filled caverns, containing small lakes. The water can be Surfed on to encounter Pokémon visible in the water. Some rocks and ice spikes are taller than the player, and must be navigated around.
