Tips
- Reach the owner on the roof in under 12 minutes for the best prize: TM11 Sunny Day (Normal), Elixir (Variety), TM19 Giga Drain (Unique) or TM31 Brick Break (Expert).
- Slower times still earn something: Ether, Max Potion, Revive, Fluffy Tail or Great Ball, depending on how long you took.
- Battles here give no Exp. Points or money, so treat the climb as practice and a prize run.
- Before the Hall of Fame the reception shop sells only basics; afterwards it adds Hyper Potions, Max Potions, Full Restores (¥3000) and Revives.
