Appendix:Pokémon Emerald Walkthrough/Part 5

## Route 117

At the beginning of this route, you can find the Pokémon Day Care. Talk to the Day Care Man and he'll tell you if you want to have them raise a Pokémon to talk to his wife. She will allow you to leave up to two Pokémon with her at once, making it possible to breed them. If you leave two Pokémon of opposite genders and the same Egg Group, or any Pokémon that can breed and a Ditto, an Egg may be produced. Ditto won't be able to be obtained until much later, after defeating the Champion. There is a long, straight path through the route which extends west into Verdanturf Town and east beyond Mauville City to the coastline at Route 118, which makes it easy to hatch Eggs. Speak to the Day Care Man and he will hint at the odds of finding one. Whenever an Egg is found, he will be standing farther away from the fence.

This route is swarming with several trainers. Head south of the Day Care and left to battle a Triathlete.

In the soil right above him you can find three Berry plants, each giving three Wepear Berries, for a total of nine. Circle around clockwise to battle a Pokémon Breeder.

Go back a bit and you can battle the two girls next to the Day Care in a Double Battle.

Keep going left and you'll run into a female Triathlete.

Further left past the two ponds you can find a Bug Catcher.

Above this are three Trainers. Two of them (depending on where you walk) might battle you in a Double Battle.

Above them you can use Cut to gain access to a Revive. Back to the left of the Bug Catcher is a female Pokémon Breeder.

Go through the gap in the flower patch below her and you can find a Great Ball. At the opposite end of the narrow path below the gate you can find a hidden Repel. Go back up and west to reach Verdanturf Town.

## Verdanturf Town

Inside the Pokémon Center is a little boy by the table who will offer to teach one of your Pokémon the move Fury Cutter. This is a one-time only deal, however. The Poké Mart will offer the following items:

If you go inside the lobby of the Battle Tent, you can find a woman on the left who will give you TM45 (Attract). On the far right side you will meet up with Scott again. Feel free to enter a Battle Tent challenge if you wish. If you win three consecutive battles you can win a Nest Ball.

On the south side are some houses. The one on the far left will have a woman who will rate your Pokémon's friendship level. The middle house belongs to Wanda, who is Wally's cousin. Wally is staying here for the time being as the natural environment in Verdanturf is doing wonders for Wally's health. You'll find Wanda's mother who tells you Wanda's boyfriend is greatly concerned for her husband, who is working tirelessly to finish construction in Rusturf Tunnel just to see her easier.

Head inside the tunnel once you're ready.

## Rusturf Tunnel

If you immediately take the southwest path instead of going up, you will come to an isolated section of Route 116.

## Route 116

Talk to the man nearby who asks you to help him find his glasses. Up on the mountain you can find a HP Up. Use your Itemfinder to locate the BlackGlasses. Talk to the man and he'll tell you these glasses aren't what he's looking for, then he departs. Head back into Rusturf Tunnel.

## Rusturf Tunnel

Head straight up from the Verdanturf entrance to battle a Hiker.

Head straight up to the top to find a Max Ether. You will find Wanda and her boyfriend separated by a pair of breakable rocks. Use Rock Smash (presuming you have Wattson's Badge) and you will reunite the couple. As thanks, he will give you HM04 (Strength), which allows you to move large boulders. However, you need to have four Badges to use the move outside of battle. The couple will then leave to go back to Wanda's house.

You can go back to Rustboro City through the main part of Route 116 if you wish now. It is not required at the moment, so head all the way back to Mauville City and go straight up to Route 111. However, as you exit Rusturf Tunnel at the Rustboro side, you'll find the man you met earlier looking for the Devon Goods. He will recognize you and give you a Repeat Ball.
