Jubelife City, Looker, and the Poketch, Route 204
Introduction to Jubelife City
When arriving at Jubelife city, the first thing you will run into of course will be Dawn. She has a habit of being a serious annoyance. She will ask you about how many Pokemon you’veĀ captured. And you both proceed towards the inner circle of Jubelife.

As you move into town you and Dawn meet one of the brand new character to Pokemon Platinum. Looker is his name and he is basically a Pokemon Secret agent. He informs you of his mission, and that if you see anything suspicious to let him know. After your introductions Looker leaves, and Dawn soon leaves thereafter.

Now remember your main mission was to go to Jubelife to try and find your rival so you can deliver the “Parcel” Your rival is actually at the Pokemon School. When you go inside you will give him his parcel, and inside are Two maps. Your rival obviously does not need Two, so he gives you one. (Isn’t that so nice of him). He then rushes off, If you go into the left hand corner you will notice a pokeball on the ground, open it and you will find an xdefend.

After leaving out of the school you can walk around a bit. If you head north you will run into your next Pokemon based event while in Jubelife. Standing in the center of town will be the CEO of the Poketch company. Basically a Poketch is watch type application that shows time, and can do other cool things. In order to get one you’ve got to walk around jubelife and find 3 clowns, and answer there questions. Each clows gives you a ticket.

Clown 1
If you go the right of CEO thats where the first one will be.

Clown 2
If you go north and then make a left you will run into clown 2.

Clown 3
Keep going left and you can’t miss the final clown.

After talking to all three clowns and getting the quesitons right you get all 3 coupons, allowing you to get your poketch.

With the poketch obtained you head up north to get into a few pokemon battles.
Route 204
This route is rather short especially right now because you can’t really progess much further. You can get into two pokemon battles. If you want to go further you need the HM move “Rock Smash”.
Trainer 1

Pokemon
Shinx: Lv 7
Information
This trainer is rather easy to beat she only has one pokemon and she uses her Shinx poorley.
Going back to Twinleaf, Towards Jubelife
Leaving Sandgem Town
So after being given the pokedex, and learning of your mission in life “seeing all the pokemon in sinnoh”. Your advised to go tell your mother than you are leaving. So you have to go back to twinleaf. You might be thinking I’ll just continue on and I will just end up continuing on the nex route. But if you do you will bee in for a suprise
Route 202
So if you descide to not go back to twinleaf right away, you can go to the right and head straight, and you will come to Rout 202. The problem is that when you reach Route 202 without going to see your mom, you guessed it! Dawn blocks you and tells you have to go to twinleaf. You can choose to avoid all the tall grass when heading back home by hopping the ledges, if you do go home by walking through the grass it’s a good idea to go the Sandgem Pokemon center before you head back.


Route: 201 to Twinleaf
As I said earlier you can save time heading back to Twinlead by hopping over the logs that generally block the path. I reccomend you hop the logs as opposed to walking through the grass.

Once you go back home your mom will end of giving you the key item Journal, it basically records your actions so you don’t forget what you’ve done incase you don’t remember or haven’t play for a while. Just as your converation with your mother end, your rivals mother enters the house. Apparently your rival left town without telling his mother and forgot something important. She asked you if you can deliver it for her to him. She tell you that she thinks he is headed Jube Life City. Luckily for you the travel route to Jube Life, is through sandgem after route 202. So just head back to where you were before.


Route 202
Wild Pokemon in the Area:
| Starly
Lv: 2 to 4
|
Bidoof
Lv: 2 to 4
|
Shinx
Lv: 2 to 4
|
Kricketott
Lv: 2 to 4
|

When you get to route 202 you are going to run into dawn again. But this time she stops you because you don’t know how to capture pokemon. She guides you through the process through a very simple in game tutorial. Her method isn’t the best per say, but it works. If you need a better guide you can read my how to catch a pokemon tutorial. After she catches her pokemon she gives you five pokeballs.


Now that you’ve got your Pokeballs, you can capture some pokemon. If I were you I’d go to the Pokemart and buy a few potions. If you continue along route 202 you will come across a trainer as your continue to move foward. This will be your first pokemon battle.
Trainer 1

Pokemon
Starly: Lv 5
Information
As this is your first real pokemon battle if you lose you will end up back at the last pokemon center you visited. This trainer only has one pokemon and that is a level 5 Starly. His starly knows Quick Attack, so keep that in mind.
After batteling this trainer you can continue along the route and you will encounter another trainer. If the previous batle was easy this next one should be the same.
Trainer #2

Pokemon
Bidoof: Lv 5
Information
This trainer should not be a problem, she only has one pokemon and thats a level 5 Bidoof. Regardless of what level it is it’s a bidoof. They can sometimes hit hard, so your pokemon might need a potion, but I doubt it.
With that second battle out of the way as you travel you are going to come across more and more grass pathes. Then just as you get ready to leave the Route 202 area you come accross another pokemon trainer. This is the last one before you get to Jubelife.
Trainer #3

Pokemon
Burmy
: Lv 5
Information
When batteling this pokemon trainer if you’ve got a fire type you will have a real advatage as Burmy is a grass type. Regardless Burmy is a rather weak pokemon at this stage in the game and should not be a problem.
With the final battle complete you can on up to Jubelife City. This is where this tutorial ends, as we will have a lot more to cover as time goes on.
