Carbink	Near the start of the course, Carbink will be resting atop some glowing crystals to your right.
Joltik	At the very start of the course, immedieately turn left and find this Joltik on the stone pillar. As soon as you enter the alternate route, zoom in on the crystals to your left to find Joltik on it.
Crobat	At the start of the level, you'll find a group of 3 Noibat. Throw an Illumina Orb at the Noibat on the right, then throw one Fluffruit at one of the smaller holes to the right. Steelix should pop his head out of one of the holes ahead. Noibat will use Supersonic on the Steelix before it jumps out. As it leaps into the next hole, Crobat will appear. In the chamber with a narrow path, Crobat can be found hanging asleep upside down in one of the holes. You can use an Illumina Orb to wake it up. If you woke up the Crobats from the chamber with a narrow path, more Crobat may appear in the chamber that follows.
Sableye	Near the start of the course, several Sableye can be found munching near the holes where Steelix first emerges. Across the second Crystabloom, you'll find a group of Sableye cowering behind some rocks. In the chamber of the Ancient Ruins when following the alternate path.
