Route Map

One route, one city, one sub-dungeon. The Poké Ball Factory is short but it's the second major Team Flare raid (Bryony + Celosia introduced as Scientists). After Valerie's badge, you're well over halfway through the main story.

Phase 7 entry
Story order note: Most guides agree the Poké Ball Factory event triggers after entering Laverre City but before the gym is fightable — you'll be redirected there to clear it before Valerie will accept your challenge. Some routes have it as a post-gym detour. Either way, this guide covers it before the gym since the level scaling suggests "factory first" is the optimal play.

Phase Sections

This phase now works like the newer walkthroughs: keep this page as the phase index, then open each section page for the deeper route, boss, item, encounter, and cleanup details.

1Route 14 — Laverre Nature TrailA dark swamp route with murky puddles, fallen logs, and overgrown grass. Hex Maniacs and Pokemon Rangers patrol the area.
2Laverre CityA gothic, fairy-tale town surrounded by giant mushrooms. The architecture is doll-house and ornate.
3Poke Ball FactoryA multi-floor industrial facility north of Laverre. Team Flare Scientists Celosia and Bryony are trying to coerce the factory president into producing custom Poke Balls for them.
4Laverre Gym — Valerie, the Fairy LeaderValerie — Laverre City Gym Fairy-type · Doll-themed kimono fashion designer · Specialty: setup tanks with Fairy STAB Gym puzzle: A doll-themed gym where you step into giant doll ho.
5Phase 6 Resources And ChecklistTeam Recommendations Phase 6 needs Steel and Poison coverage. Aegislash (Honedge → Doublade → Aegislash) is the single best counter to Valerie; if you’ve been raising one since Phase 2, it’s pay-off time.

Phase Checklist

  • Open each section page in order before treating this phase as complete.
  • Use the route map above as the high-level path, then use section pages for the deeper tables and boss notes.
  • Check the final resources and checklist section before advancing to the next phase.
