Phase 6 Mine Badge Canalave City, Iron Island, the Canalave Gym puzzle, and Byron. 06 / 11 
Use Surf across Jubilife's western channel, clear fisherman and sailor battles, and pass the Canalave checkpoint. This standalone section joins the route plan to the original Diamond/Pearl map, encounter, trainer, item, and script data; Platinum tables are not substituted.
Source maps
Route 218, Route 218 Jubilife Gatehouse, and Route 218 Canalave Gatehouse.
Version discipline
Rows merge only when Diamond and Pearl are identical, and each row carries D/P game markers. Version-exclusive species, mascot encounters, swarms, Radar slots, and GBA insertion slots keep their own labeled rows.
Route Plan
Collect the Old Rod from the gate if missed; Surf west; clear the water and land trainers; scan both shores for hidden items; pass the assistant's Pokedex check at the Canalave gate; heal on arrival.
- Ditto is a Poke Radar encounter here after the National Dex, not part of the ordinary first-visit grass table.
- The west gate includes a Rowan-assistant upgrade scene based on seen Pokemon, so keep the regional Pokedex reasonably current.

Trainers
Field order follows the map's object-event order. Full teams include explicit held items and moves when trdata defines them; cash rewards use the in-engine final-party-slot level and trainer-class multiplier formula.

Hidden Items
No type-2 hidden-item event is present in the source maps assigned to this section.
Puzzles, Warps, And Switches
- Surf around both sides of the central land strip before entering the western gate; each shore has its own item and trainer sightlines.
Boss Strategy And Partners
No Gym Leader, rival branch, Galactic boss, Elite Four member, Champion, story partner, or major postgame battle is assigned here.
Completion Checklist
- Complete the currently reachable part of this route plan: Collect the Old Rod from the gate if missed; Surf west; clear the water and land trainers; scan both shores for hidden items; pass the assistant's Pokedex check at the Canalave gate; heal on arrival.
- Review all 17 encounter rows across the per-area tables, including game markers, method band, time-of-day rates, levels, and each conditional requirement; mark conditional rows for their stated revisit.
- Defeat or deliberately skip every currently reachable trainer row; leave HM-, story-, or National-Dex-gated rows checked only after their access requirement is met.
- Collect currently reachable visible/scripted items and berry trees, use the Dowsing Machine for reachable hidden rows, and retain every explicitly gated row for the named cleanup visit.
- Resolve every currently available puzzle note, boss branch, and partner scene before opening the next section.
Sources And Validation
pret/pokediamondat commit038cccaed5de8f013875bc5d734f912d1de08e0f:map_header.c, D/P encounter archives,trdata.json, zone events, script archives, item tables, and trainer graphics.- Encounter slots were decoded from exact 424-byte D/P members and cross-checked against Gen IV slot behavior; the 0x6C pair is day, morning uses base slots, and 0x74 is night.
- Coordinates remain visible as QA anchors, while each hidden row also provides a plain-English map-region instruction.
- Generation-wide systems that are not tied to a normal map archive—Honey Trees, Great Marsh daily rolls, Trophy Garden, fossils, Pal Park, and event items—are explicitly curated in their dedicated system pages.
