Uses

Flash is an Area Move.
Area Moves are another type of Field Move. Unlike regular Field Moves, they are not used for Target Clear. They can only be used if "?" is shown above the Ranger in the field.
If the "?" appears above the Ranger, it means a specific kind of Area Move may be used. (At any such location, only one kind of Area Move will work.) While the "?" is displayed, touch the Friend Pokémon that has the usable Area Move.
When the "?" is touched the message displayed is; "An Electabuzz should be able to light up the darkness!"

Flash can be used in the following locations;

• Altru Tower
• Chroma Ruins
