Map description:
A laboratory for researching Pokémon. The acting director offers wonderful rewards if you assist her with her research.
The Pokémon Research Lab (Japanese: ポケモン研究所Pokémon Laboratory), previously known as the Sycamore Pokémon Lab (Japanese: プラターヌ ポケモン研究所Platane Pokémon Laboratory), is a laboratory in Lumiose City in the Kalosregion. It is located along South Boulevard within the Vert District. The lab is currently run by acting director Mable, succeeding Professor Sycamore.
On the second floor, the player can revive Tyrunt or Amaura from a Jaw Fossil or Sail Fossil, respectively. This is unlocked after completing a side mission in which the player is given money to purchase a Jaw Fossil or Sail Fossil from the Stone Emporium. The player receives either Tyrunt or Amaura after the lab assistant revives it from the Fossil.
A colored background means that the Pokémon can be found in this location in the specified game. A white background with a colored letter means that the Pokémon cannot be found here.
Volcanion can be found during Side Mission 194: Volcanion Unleashed, which becomes available after completing Hyperspace Mission 12: The Greatest Gift. The player is required to catch it to progress, and if defeated, it will respawn immediately to be battled again. It is coded to never be Shiny.
