Platinum postgame unlocks and daily events

First Hall of Fame

After defeating Cynthia, travel from Snowpoint by boat to the Fight Area. See all 210 Sinnoh species, including Manaphy, and visit Rowan’s lab to obtain the National Pokédex from Oak. The Pokémon Mansion book registers Manaphy without requiring an owned event specimen. The upgrade opens important Battle Zone routes and collection methods.

Finish Stark Mountain

Explore the Battle Zone, meet Buck and resolve the final Galactic incident at Stark Mountain. Looker’s arrest of Charon unlocks the Battleground and stronger League rematches. Return to Buck’s Survival Area house and then the mountain for Heatran. See League teams and Cynthia’s rematch.

Daily and weekly checklist

• Drifloon appears outside Valley Windworks on Friday after its story conditions.
• Talk to Dawn or Lucas’s sister in Sandgem for the day’s swarm after the National Pokédex.
• Inspect the Great Marsh binoculars and Trophy Garden daily species.
• Use the daily lottery, massages, Berry gifts and repeatable trainer activities as available.
• Barry’s postgame Fight Area challenge is available on weekends; its strength grows with further League victories.
• Check the rotating Battleground roster after its unlock and visit the Villa in the Resort Area.

Choose a completion goal

The Frontier, Super Contests, Underground and Pokédex offer separate goals. Changing the system clock can interrupt timed events; let the game’s daily cycle advance normally.
