Cortondo Gym Test Tips and Strategies

Roll the Olive Through Ramps

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet - Ramps
Take note that you do not need to stay within the route to get to the goal and you can push the olive above the ramps set across the field.

Aim to roll the olive over the first ramp that you'll encounter after the initial stretch. This way, you can save time and get to the goal quickly.

Battle Trainers to Get Shortcuts

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet (SV) - Cortondo Gym Shortcut
Two trainers, blocking access to certain paths, will be waiting for you in the field. You cannot roll the olive ball over them as you need to defeat them in battle in order to gain access to the shortcuts they are blocking.

It is recommended to battle the trainer near the goal so you don't have to push the olive all the way to the other side of the field and instead get the shortcut that leads straight to the goal.

You do not need to battle either of them as they are optional interactions, but if you feel that your team needs some training, you can challenge them for some experience points.
