Tips
- After you bring Selphy home, talk to her and she will ask to see one particular species that is already in your Pokédex; show her one from your party for a reward.
- You have a limited number of steps to find the requested Pokémon, and she asks again with a new species if you take too long.
- The reward is usually a Luxury Ball, but it can also be a Pearl, Big Pearl, Stardust, Star Piece, Nugget or Rare Candy.
- There are three Painters who each use a level 50 Smeargle, plus Lady Jacki and Lady Gillian, so the trainers are reasonable experience.
- Check the hidden Nest Ball, two Stardust and a Star Piece on the grounds, and for fishing note Qwilfish and Horsea in FireRed versus Remoraid and Krabby in LeafGreen.
