Helpful Pokémon to Catch

At the gym, you will be up against level 40-42 pokémon. Some helpful pokémon to catch for the next gym are in the Alfornada area. To reach Alfornada, go to the beach south of the "West Province (Area One) — Central" Pokémon Center, and when you get to the beach, look for the rocky slope that goes above the water. Go along the slope to reach the cave. In the cave, catch a Sableye, then go through the cave to reach Alfornada. Use the Pokémon Center there, then catch a Lokix in this area. Then go east from Alfornada to the ruins in the hills and catch a Tinkatuff. Other helpful pokémon can be caught near the watchtower in the foothills east of Glaseado Gym, such as Revavroom, and also Magneton, which can be caught in the snowy areas just north of that watchtower (you may need to make a sandwich of 6xNoodles, 3xSalt, and 1xWhipped Cream to help encounter more of them), and Sawsbuck, which can be caught in snow and grass near the watchtower.

How to Reach Montenevera Gym

Go along the path that goes northeast from Medali, then after you cross the bridge over the river, turn right at the sign. The path will split again, but you can go either direction. When you reach the snowy mountain area, you can stop at the Pokémon Center, then go northeast from that Pokémon Center and the path will lead you to Montenevera.

Afterward, Nemona gives you 3 Max Potions.

Your Pokémon have been healed and your Tera Orb has been recharged.

Gym Test

Talk to the person behind the front desk in the Montenevera Gym to start the Gym Test. Then go outside and go south to the stage. Talk to the person in front of the stage to start the test. You will need to do three Double Battles in a row to pass the test.

First, you will battle Gym Trainer Tas, who has a level 40 Greavard and a level 40 Shuppet. You get 5600 Pokédollars for winning.

Your Pokémon will be healed up, and then you will battle Gym Trainer Lani, who has a level 40 Misdreavus and a level 40 Haunter. You get 5600 Pokédollars for winning.

Your Pokémon will be healed up, and then you will battle Gym Trainer MC Sledge, who has a level 40 Drifblim and a level 40 Sableye. You get 5600 Pokédollars for winning.

Afterward, heal up at the Pokémon Center, then go back into the Gym and talk to the Gym Staffer behind the front desk. If you're ready to battle Ryme, say Yes.

Ghost Gym Leader Ryme, the MC of RIP

After a cutscene, the battle will begin. Throughout the battle, the crowd's cheers will boost the stats of your Pokémon and Ryme's Pokémon. You will have a double battle against Ryme, who has the following pokémon. If you followed the advice for pokémon to catch, Lokix and Sableye work well against Banette and Mimikyu, Revavroom and Magneton work well against Banette/Mimikyu and Houndstone, and Terastallized Tinkaton and Sawsbuck work well against Houndstone and Toxtricity.

When Ryme's Houndstone is in battle, be sure to focus attacks on Ryme's other pokémon, since your attacks could miss if Houndstone uses Phantom Force when you try to attack it.
