Tips

• TM91 Flash Cannon is in the northeast corner past Hiker Eoin, and you need Cut to reach it.
• Light Clay, which extends Reflect and Light Screen, sits in the north-central area behind a cuttable tree.
• Max Potion and Full Restore are lying in the open, and an Ether is hidden near the easternmost patch of grass.
• Mankey and Primeape appear only in HeartGold, while SoulSilver has more Spearow and Rattata.
• Mass outbreaks bring Sableye in HeartGold and Mawile in SoulSilver.
• Surf the stream for Goldeen and Seaking, or use the Super Rod to fish up Seaking.
