Pokémon X and Y Walkthrough - Part 5 (Onwards to Santalune City)

As you arrive onto Route 3, you'll stop for a quick team meeting with all your friends, discussing what to do next. Trevor plans to go looking for new Pokémon for the Pokédex, Tierno wants to find some good Pokémon for dancing, Shauna is just happy to spend time with her cute li'l starter, and Calem suggests going off to challenge the Pokémon gym in the city just ahead. He even hands out a little adventure guidebook with some helpful hints of things every Pokémon trainer should know! How considerate! :')

As you head off down the short Route to Santalune City, they'll be several patches of grass hiding a few new Pokémon if you're eager to catch some!

There will also be a little pond area to your left near the forest exit, but unfortunately any Pokémon living over there will be unobtainable for now as you won't have a fishing rod or any Pokémon able to surf. When you get that, feel free to come on back to this route to catch them. You'll also find a Dawn Stone on the other side of the water so it's worth your time coming on back to surf across. Any Pokémon obtainable through the water in this area are also listed below for when you can come on back ;)

If you don't want to go crawling through the grass, there are a few preschoolers along the path who will be willing to challenge you. First You'll run into preschooler Oliver who has 2 Pokémon, a lv2 Caterpie and a lv4 Azurill. Soon after, you'll run into preschooler Ella, who has a lv5 Pichu.

Once you've made your way past the preschoolers, you'll be stopped at the bottom of the stairs to let a roller skater rush by ahead of you towards the city. You should also notice a nearby prickly thorn bush on the north side of the path. You'll be able to find a Revive behind it but unfortunately you won't be able to get past until one of your Pokémon learns the move Cut. If you follow the path you will find yourself in Santalune city but before that, if you head on south from the stairs you'll come to a Super Potion. There will also be a trainer or two for you to battle.  you'll run into school girl Bridget with a lv6 Bidoof. You'll have to go back through the grass on the left side, where you'll find schoolboy Brighton ready for a battle. He has each of the 3 elemental monkeys from the Unova region, Pansage, Pansear and Panpour, all at lv3. After these battles, your Pokémon might be just a bit tired, but fear not as your first glimpse of a Pokémon Centre is just ahead! Just make your way up out of the grass and onwards to Santalune City!
