hey who do you think Gard. E Voir is?

go up from like... the town close to the center of the map I can't remember the name. You go right where the houses are, up to where the last row of houses is, and then a lil to the left, bam tall grass and from there things are obvious

OKAY so the rock is an unintentional huge red herring, before you progress in the story, you try to go to lavaridge, you're blocked by the rock, and you're like "oh I'll unlock this area once I learn strength" but you don't actually unlock strength for a while and you need to get into the town NOW soooo. 

So actually, upon doing all of the story stuff, like miles away on the upper left part of the map, you gotta go back to that area in route 112 just south of the fiery path cave, and those two guards that were inexplicably blocking the path to the building next to it will be gone, and what they were blocking is actually a tram you can use to skip right over the rock and straight into lavaridge town

you can use covet to steal

so can you ever "beat" the legendary fisherman quest? I've given the girl every fish that was on the list in the quest and... nothing. Just some well-appreciated candies and some less-appreciated berries

edit: saw from another comment I need to get more badges which... fine I guess I can do that but man things are confusing lol

same here, but if it helps anyone, the machops near lava ridge HAVE strength in their move pool, but even though I caught one and have it in my party and have beaten all the gyms and done all the storyline quests up to that point... I still cannot move that fucking rock

I wish the game would either just make rock smash and strength hms given as soon as you beat the gym, so you don't have to deal with this. Or make the tms purchasable at a shop after getting the badge, or make them always purchasable at a shop but only functional outside of battle after beating the specific gym, like the voidkip in the house would be the perfect place for doing that.

yea you gotta get them from machops I'm sorry... there are mons with abilities that make it more likely for wild mons to have items tho

the evolution is simpler, which I think is mentioned in the guide and on the discord, but yeah you just level it up

the "do you want to repeat the tutorial" question has about the same vibes as the "understand the explanation" bit from undertale lol

edit: ignore me here I found where I screwed up, just leaving this for anyone that gets stuck

The rampaging Ralts quest has softlocked me. I went up and fought the rampaging Ralts, beat it, talked to the person, did everything I could up there, and I thought I was done so I jumped down and saved over my previous save, which I'm pretty sure doomed me.

I have now learned that this for some reason doesn't count as subduing the threat, and also that it won't let me back into the forest to go up and around to get up to the cliff or do much of anything, because the "maybe you should deal with that rampaging Raltz first" text also blocks the leftmost entrance to the forest as well, and even if I did there is no longer a Ralts there to fight so idk what the game wants from me lol. I tried leaving the area, sleeping, quitting, etc, etc, and nothing.

edit: ........

so listen. I was spamming enter during the ralts battle, and so when it fainted I accidentally skipped one single line of very important text... which is that the ralts survived and I needed to find it in the town >~< which I have only found out now that I have started over and gotten to this point again
