The '''Dowsing Machine''' (Japanese: '''ダウジングマシン''' ''Dowsing Machine'') is an app that indicates the location of nearby hidden items. In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl, it is received from {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} on {{rt|207|Sinnoh}} near the {{rt|206|Sinnoh}} junction; in Pokémon Platinum, it is received from them on Route 207 at the entrance to [[Mt.
