Appendix:Pokémon Black and White Walkthrough/Part 10

## Twist Mountain

Head west of the Hiker and enter the mountain. Straight ahead you'll run into Cheren and Clay. Clay is inspecting the mountains and is on the lookout for Team Plasma, but is unsure where they are. After Clay leaves, Cheren will go further on ahead.

This place is very different depending on the season (or rather, whether or not it's winter). Certain items and Trainers are only accessible depending on the time of year. Check the tab below for the corresponding season. For the sake of simplicity, the guide will only be covering each Trainer and item once.

* Winter
* Spring, Summer, and Autumn

During winter, the mountain is covered in heavy snow. Go east and up to find a Full Heal. Go back clockwise to the north to pick up a Revive. Against the wall at the top, use your Dowsing Machine to find a hidden Stardust. Go down the snow bank and down to battle a Doctor.

As always, Doctors will heal your Pokémon after the battle and all subsequent times, so come back to him if needed. Go into the tunnel near him and go west to battle a Worker.

Go west to grab the PP Up he was guarding. Go south of him and check the southwest corner for a hidden Elixir. Go east then north near the ledge to pick up a Nugget. Near the rocks is a hidden Revive. Go back down and then east through the exit to get back outside.

Head north near the broken bridge to grab an Ether. Take the path to the east side of the mountain for a Max Potion. Down the snow slope a bit is a hidden Rare Candy.

Go all the way down to the lowest entrance. Go down the stairs and into the deepest part of the mountain. In the center of this cavern is an ice-covered rock. Go counterclockwise along the east side and down the steps to grab TM91 (Flash Cannon). Go back outside and go into the lower east cavern to pick up a Metal Coat, which raises the power of Steel-type moves. In the upper east cavern, go south to battle another Worker near all the piles of dirt.

In the pile of dirt just east of him is a hidden Stardust. Go north and into the next room. Head up the stairs and check the dirt pile to the west to find another Stardust hidden inside. Go east and hiding in the dirt pile near the stairs is another Worker.

Go east of him and you'll find a Moon Stone behind the boulder. Go out the west exit and south on the bridge to battle another Worker.

Go inside the cavern just above him and go down to battle a Battle Girl.

Go southwest of her to battle a Hiker.

Check the center of the wall above him for a hidden Hyper Potion. Go out the exit northeast of him and outside you'll run into an Ace Trainer.

Go back inside, heading west past the Hiker and out the left exit. Go all the way around to the top northeast cavern entrance. On the way you can find a hidden Iron on the bridge. Go down the stairs and into the next dungeon. Head around to the southeast to battle another Ace Trainer.

Go west of him and you'll find TM90 (Substitute).

Go to the southern entrance and go past the Hiker. Go out the northeast exit and go north. Enter the cavern and go down the staircase. Enter the lower cavern and go out to the west. Go west across the bridge until you get to the next doorway, then head inside. Go around to the northeast exit to find the Doctor. Take the next entrance north of him and keep going north to battle a Hiker.

Enter the doorway north of him and take the stairs down. Go all the way to the west up the steps to find an Ultra Ball. Go back down the steps to battle a Black Belt.

In the dirt pile southwest of him is a hidden Protein. Just below that is a Worker in another dirt pile.

Go out the exit southwest of him. Here you'll find a house with nothing or nobody inside. Just out near the exit you came out of is a vending machine.

Go through the northeast entrance. Just north of here you'll find Cheren arguing with a Team Plasma Grunt. A second Grunt soon shows up and says the thing they're looking for has been found and that they should head to the tower. After they leave, Cheren decides he will stay here to train and to think about what Alder said to him before. Exit the cave east of him and you'll be in Icirrus City.

## Icirrus City

After first stepping outside, you'll be greeted by Cedric Juniper. He asks about your lead Pokémon, then will tell you a story about Dragonspiral Tower. He gives some lore behind it and says it's just past Icirrus City to the north. He then leaves to go check it out.

Head east into the puddle with the Dowsing Machine to find a hidden Max Revive. Walk east and go up the stairs, going east across the bridge to find a hidden Ultra Ball and a Timer Ball in the corner.

Go inside the Pokémon Center to heal up, then talk to the Poké Mart clerks.

* Upper cashier
* Lower cashier

The old woman near the southwest corner will give you TM31 (Brick Break). The old man inside next to the nurse will be interested in buying rare and valuable stones from you for an increased price.

In winter, the puddles in the southeast part of the city will be frozen and you can slide across them. During this season, go across the snowbanks and east of the windmill you can find some hidden TinyMushrooms and a Big Mushroom by the cliffside. Head east and you can head inside the house. Inside is a man who is known as the Team Rocket Grunt in the Kanto region who stole the Machine Part from the Power Plant during the events of Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver. He apparently got married, had a son, then moved to Unova after quitting Team Rocket. His wife will give you a RageCandyBar.

Head north of the four people dancing left of the Pokémon Center, then head south of the Gym. Only in winter, you can find a hill of snow leading to a platform where you can grab a Rare Candy. In the small narrow crevice near the snow hill is a hidden Max Potion.

The house just north of that is the Pokémon Fan Club. The Chairman inside will ask to see a Pokémon. He will give you one of three items depending on how well you've trained your Pokémon. If the Pokémon you show him has grown 25-49 levels since it was caught, he will give you an Exp. Share. If it's grown 50-98 levels, you'll get a Cleanse Tag, and if you've trained a Pokémon 99 levels (Lv. 1 to Lv. 100), you'll receive a King's Rock. The girl inside will do a general rating of your Pokémon's friendship.

In the house east of the Gym, you'll meet three people: Wye (the mother), Aha (the father), and Ditoh (the daughter). Wye will pull you inside immediately to take a pop quiz, called "Pep Quiz." If you answer the question they give correctly, you'll get an Antidote. If you get it wrong, you'll get a Parlyz Heal. This quiz can be taken once per day.

After you're done exploring, head for the Gym.

### Icirrus Gym

Be sure to talk to Clyde to get the free Fresh Water, as per usual. If you couldn't already tell, this Gym specializes in Ice-type Pokémon. Head north to the curved corner of the spinner and you'll land on a blue tile. Slide east on the ice and battle the Black Belt. Just north, step on the red switch, which will rotate the spinner. Go west to spin to the northeast. Battle the Battle Girl, then go east over the jump to battle the next Black Belt. Slide east of him, then north, east, and north. Battle the Battle Girl, then slide south and east. Slide west from the arrow to use the spinner, then slide north to step on the red switch. Go past the Battle Girl and use the spinner south of her. Go up the staircase and across the jump to reach another Battle Girl. Now you'll want to use the spinner twice. Once you do, head north to battle a Black Belt. Step on the switch near him and take the spinner twice more, then go north. Head up the stairs to face Brycen.

After being defeated, he will reward you with the  Freeze Badge, which assures all Pokémon up to Lv. 80 will obey you. He also gives out TM79 (Frost Breath). This move always lands a critical hit. There is a slide to the west that will lead you back to the entrance.

Outside, you'll meet up with Cheren and Bianca. After a bit of conversation, Brycen will exit the Gym. He demands that some people show themselves, and the Shadow Triad suddenly show up. They give you a message from Ghetsis to come to Dragonspiral Tower, where N is waiting for you. They will then disappear. Brycen suddenly leaves for Dragonspiral Tower, with Cheren following him. Bianca eventually decides to go as well. Heal if you need to, then head north to Dragonspiral Tower.

## Dragonspiral Tower

At the entrance of the tower is Cedric Juniper. Bianca will introduce herself to him, and he says that Cheren and Brycen have gone to confront some Team Plasma members who have broken into the tower. After explaining the situation, Bianca decides to stay with Cedric as his bodyguard. Cedric will then give you an Old Gateau, which will heal any status problem.

In winter only, you can climb the snow pile north of Icirrus Gym and go north to find a Nugget.

Before heading inside the tower, Surf east to battle an Ace Trainer.

North of him is TM63 (Embargo). Keep going north to battle another Ace Trainer.

Surf west of her and check the pillar with the Dowsing Machine for a hidden Heart Scale. Now head inside the tower.

Keep going north and you'll hear a rumble near the stairs. On the second floor, Cheren will give you a hint about walking up the broken columns that you can use as a bridge. Northwest of the first broken pillar you can use Strength to move the boulder for a quick shortcut to the next floor. Go underneath the columns at the north to grab a Hyper Potion. Go up the stairs on the west side and pick up the Stardust on the broken pillar. Head up the stairs.

On the third floor you'll find several ramps you need to navigate. Go down the first ramp, then take the bottom ramp. Navigate the ramps to the northeast to pick up a Shiny Stone. Go back and navigate the ramps until you get to the stairs, then climb up.

On the fourth floor, you'll find Brycen and Cheren holding off several members of Team Plasma. Head south to battle two Team Plasma Grunts.

Continue to climb up the stairs to battle more Grunts.

Head to the right of him and collect the Dragon Fang, which raises the power of Dragon-type moves. Head up the stairs.

Now you'll have to navigate several circular pathways held together by small bridges. Head east and up the bridge then continue east, going down the south bridge, then west to collect some Stardust. Head up to the second ring and go west, then up the bridge to grab a Star Piece. Jump the ledge and go up to the ring near the pillar, going east, down the bridge to the third ring, and west. Go down the next bridge and continue all the way east for a Revive. Head back west and down the bridge, then go up the stairs.

On the sixth floor, you'll hear another rumble along with someone shouting something (that depends on the version). Apparently something is rampaging on the top of the tower. Continue north to find a Max Elixir, then head west. Here you'll find Giallo of the Seven Sages, along with several more Grunts. The four Grunts will swarm you and you have to battle all four of them in a row before proceeding.

On the top floor you'll find N, who has befriended the Legendary Pokémon, Zekrom**B**/Reshiram**W**. N claims it will fight alongside him as he calls himself the hero who will defeat the Champion. He says that in order to stop him, you'll have to befriend the counterpart Legendary Pokémon, Reshiram**B**/Zekrom**W**. He says it is waiting for you in the form of the Light Stone**B**/Dark Stone**W**. He will then fly away on his Dragon. Cheren and Brycen come in and soon will all exit the tower.

Outside, Cedric and Bianca are also there. All of you discuss what just transpired, and Alder soon shows up. During the discussion, Alder says that awakening the other Dragon is not a bad idea; he says it might be in the Relic Castle. Cedric and Brycen decide to further investigate the Dragonspiral Tower, while Alder and Cheren leave for the Relic Castle. Bianca will then say that the Relic Castle is located in the Desert Resort near Route 4. Head back there to start investigating.
