Walkthroughs
PBO’s story runs through four regions, one after the other. Each walkthrough follows that region’s Main Story quests from the Quest Tracker, with every Gym Leader, rival and villain team, the HMs and the gym puzzles. They contain spoilers.




The four regions in order
Section titled “The four regions in order”| Order | Region | Where it starts | You can go there |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Sinnoh | Twinleaf Town | From the start |
| 2 | Jvaloh, PBO’s own region | Route 219, south of Sandgem Town | After the Sinnoh story, once |
| 3 | Hoenn | Littleroot Town, by ship from Snowpoint City | After the Jvaloh story ends at the Dragon Tower |
| 4 | Kanto | Pallet Town, by ship from Lilycove City | After you become Hoenn Champion and finish the Skies Beyond Hoenn quests |
Travelling between regions
Section titled “Travelling between regions”Once a region is open, you can go back and forth without replaying the trip. Each region’s own teleporters only cover that region, but three places have a
teleporter that serves every region: Spring Valley (Sinnoh), the Crew Wars Lobby and the Champion’s Hall Tournament Room.
| You are in | How to reach a cross-region teleporter |
|---|---|
| Sinnoh | Any teleporter goes to Spring Valley. Hearthome City’s also goes to the Crew Wars Lobby once you have 3 Sinnoh badges. |
| Hoenn or Kanto | Every teleporter lists Spring Valley and the Crew Wars Lobby. |
| Jvaloh | Jvaloh’s teleporters stay in Jvaloh. Once you have a Jvaloh badge, the |
At a cross-region teleporter, a town in another region is on the list once you have the badges that town needs in its own region. You need at least 1 badge in Jvaloh, Hoenn or Kanto before any of that region’s towns appear.
The ships also keep running:
- Hoenn:
Sailor Bucky at the Snowpoint City docks sails to Crosswave Isle, where
Driver Rusty’s truck takes you on to Littleroot Town. Driver Rusty in Littleroot drives you back to Crosswave Isle, and Bucky sails you to Snowpoint. - Kanto:
Sailor Marcus at the Lilycove City port sails to Pallet Town, and sails back from Pallet Town.
Your old team in a new region
Section titled “Your old team in a new region”Pokémon you caught in an earlier region do not keep their full strength in a new one until you beat that region’s Elite Four:
| In | Pokémon from earlier regions battle at |
|---|---|
| Jvaloh and Hoenn | At most level 5, plus 5 for every badge you hold in the region you are in (see level caps by badge count) |
| Kanto | Level 1 |
Pokémon caught in the region you are playing are never held back, so catch a new team as you go. Pokémon from a later region are not held back when you return to an earlier one.
