Tips
- The Oceanic Museum costs ¥50 to enter, and a Team Aqua grunt you met earlier gives you TM46 Thief on 1F.
- The Slateport Battle Tent runs Battle Factory-style challenges with rental Pokémon, and a man in its lobby gives you TM41 Torment.
- In the Pokémon Fan Club, the chairman gives a coloured Scarf for each high contest condition on your lead Pokémon (after you have entered a contest), a member gives a Soothe Bell to a very friendly Pokémon, and a tutor teaches Swagger once.
- The market sells TM10 Hidden Power and TM43 Secret Power for ¥3000 each, plus vitamins at ¥9800.
- Buy a Harbor Mail (¥50) at the Poké Mart: a woman in Mauville City trades you a Coin Case for it.
- Once you have the Mind Badge, Captain Stern at the harbour trades a DeepSeaTooth or DeepSeaScale for the Scanner from the Abandoned Ship.
