Map of Ancient Tomb in Pokémon Emerald
Ancient Tomb (in-game map)

The Ancient Tomb stands on Route 120, south of Fortree City, and holds Registeel. It is sealed until you complete the Sealed Chamber puzzle. In Emerald the Braille reads "Those who inherit our will, shine in the middle", so you use Flash from the centre of the chamber to open Registeel's room.

  • Bring a Pokémon that knows Flash (HM05, from the Hiker in Granite Cave).
  • Stand in the middle of the main room, then use Flash from the party menu.
  • Registeel is Lv40 with very high Defence and Sp. Def; Fire, Fighting and Ground moves are super effective on it.
  • Save before the battle; there are no wild Pokémon or items to worry about here.
