Tips and Strategies

Watch Out for Poison Point

The most dangerous part of the dungeon is Nidoran♀'s Poison Point, which has a chance of poisoning a Pokemon that attacks them. Just in case, we recommend bringing Cheri Berries and Pecha Berries, so you can recover from Paralysis and Poison.

Remember that you can change leaders if your Pokemon get hungry or run of of PP for their long range move.

Recommended Pokemon

Cubone ImageCubone

If you are aiming for the best starter for the dungeon, Cubone's type advantage and moves make it the best choice.

However, Thunderwave Cave is still an early dungeon and you can beat it with all starters.
