Starting the quest

To start the Quest, the player must go to the Ruins of Alph and look for the NPC Asa. He will say that he needs the help of an experienced trainer to assist his fellow scientists. Then, he will challenge you to a duel.

He will use a team of 6 Pokémon, from the following options:

Pokémon	Type	Effective against

After defeating him, the player will receive 125K experience points and will be granted access to the laboratory.

Inside Professor Kohana's laboratory, there are three assistants whom the trainer will need to help in order to prove that they are capable of assisting with the investigations. They are:

Hiroki

Hiroki says he is investigating some psychic Pokémon to assist him in his research. To make his research more robust, he asks the player to show him a catch of a Xatu, as these Pokémon have the ability to predict the future.

After showing the Xatu catch record, the scientist still needs more information about the Pokémon's behavior, because the Pokédex information alone was not enough. He then says he will make a trap for Xatus and asks for 500 Enchanted Gem and 500 Straw. Upon delivering the items, Hiroki will give the player 10K as a reward. In addition, as the conversation continues, he delivers the trap and asks the player to meet him at one of the ruins.

After delivering Xatu's trap, simply watch the cutscenes with the NPC and then return to the lab to receive your reward of 100K experience points.

Noa

Continuing with the mission to help Professor Kohana's assistants, Noa says that during one of his investigations in Union Cave, he was attacked by some Pokémon and ended up losing his family crest. When he returned to the site, he found only a few footprints, suspecting that some Pokémon had taken the crest.

He gives you a list to defeat 300 Pokémon, any one of the following:

Pokémon		Type	Effective against
	Onix
	Sandslash
	Marowak
	Quagsire
	Steelix
	Lapras

As a reward, the player receives 250K experience points.

After defeating the Pokémon and finding no clues, Noa gives the trainer an Item Finder, which will help in the search for the crest. Using Noa's Item Finder in Union Cave, the player will find clues that will lead them to a dungeon.

The first finder should be used at the coordinates: 3006, 30647, 6

The second finder should be used at the coordinates: 2957, 30682, 7

The third finder should be used at the coordinates: 2959, 30743, 8

The fourth finder should be used at the coordinates: 3037, 30663, 9

Note: You must use the Finder in the correct location to unlock the next location. When the Finder is used in the correct location, an animation will occur and the player will receive 10K experience points.

Dungeon

By clicking on the dungeon entrance at the location indicated by the 4th Finder, the player will enter a dungeon.

The dungeon has 30 Pokémon, and the boss of the room is a Steelix.
Note: There is a limit of 100 potions, 8 revives, and a time limit of 30 minutes to complete the dungeon. In addition, Boss Steelix has a healing mechanic.
Pokémon found in the dungeon:

Pokémon		Type	Effective against
	Onix
	Sandslash
	Marowak
	Steelix

When you're done, just return to Noa with the crest in hand. He will thank you and give you 250K experience points.

Riko

Riko is an artist fascinated by Smeargle who is using the lab to find inspiration for his drawings. He is interested in learning more about the Pokémon and asks the trainer to catch a Smeargle.

After catching Smeargle, he asks the trainer to show him Smeargle 2, 3, 4, and 5 in their inventory, and to talk to Asa outside the lab.

Asa invites you to a duel with only these Smeargles that have been shown.

Pokémon		Type	Effective against
	Xatu
	Alakazam
	Misdreavus
	Shiny Growlithe

Defeating Asa will grant the player 250K experience points. After finishing the conversation with Asa, report to Riko to continue the quest.

Professor Kohana

After finishing the tasks with the lab assistants, it's time to talk to the head of research. Kohana says she is coordinating the research with her husband, and that there are more mysteries to be solved in the ruins.

To prove the trainer's worth, she gives them their first challenge, which is the same one they encountered when they began their research in the ruins. Then she gives them a poem and asks them to decipher it by interacting with the objects found inside the ruins.

First challenge

The player must click on specific locations found throughout the Ruins of Alph.

When knowledge becomes so strong that it is capable of manifesting itself in our world.

First way in which life was designed for this world.

2946, 30473, 10

Note: Click only once on each spot. If you click twice, the riddle will be reset.

Upon completing the sequence, a message will appear on the Pokégear, and you will need to return to the laboratory to report what happened and begin the next challenge.

Second challenge

The next challenge to be solved is linked to the Wobbuffet statues, which have a direct connection to the ruins. The professor will then hand out special food and ask the trainer to interact with the statues in sequence.

Note: If the player uses the wrong food, a mini boss Wobbuffet will appear to attack them.

Continuing the quest

Inside the dungeon there will be two puzzles, each responsible for the appearance of a boss when completed.

Upon completing the first puzzle, a Slowbro boss will appear. It must be defeated in order to proceed.

Upon completing the second puzzle, a

Slowking boss will appear. It must be defeated to complete the dungeon.

After completing the dungeon, return to Professor Kohana and receive your reward of 250K experience points.

He says that there are four chambers directly involved in the mysteries of the ruins. It will be necessary to complete them in order to solve the mystery.
