Gym Puzzle

To start, trainers will have to complete the Cortondo City Gym Puzzle. Once this is completed they can battle the Gym Leader Katy.

Task: Take on the Olive Roll

The Olive Harvest Festival is going on and players will have to roll an Olive to the Finish line. Players can find this challenge to the North of the Town.

• Talk to the person in the suit just outside of the field. Players will see two baskets and a gigantic olive in the field.
• This one is pretty simple. Just follow the path and keep the olive in the field. The final destination is on the exact opposite side of the field. Just push it into the big basket.

• Nymble

  • Bug

• Tarountula

  • Level 14
  • Bug

• Teddiursa

  • Level 15

If the player starts with Fuecoco this will be a very easy gym to take down. Even if not, there are plenty of early-game Pokemon that should have a Fire or Rock move to take care of the first two Pokemon. After that players will want something with a Fighting-type move to quickly make work of the Teddiursa.
