Laverre City → Anistar City Gym (Olympia) — autumn trails, abandoned hotels, and the sundial.
Route Map
Phase 7 is shorter than Phase 6 — two new routes, one optional sub-area (Lost Hotel), and one city. No major Team Flare arc here; that's all packed into Phase 8. Focus is on item collection (especially TM95 Snarl from Lost Hotel) and grinding levels for the upcoming Lv 44–48 gym.
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.
An autumn-themed route, paved with fallen golden leaves that conceal hidden items and crouched trainers.
Section 2 Lost HotelAn abandoned hotel ruin north of Route 15. Optional, but strongly recommended — multiple high-value items behind Rock-Smash walls, and several Punk Rocker trainers for XP.
Section 3 Route 16 — Melancolie PathA misty, drizzly route heading east. Connects Lumiose/Lost Hotel area to Anistar.
Section 4 Anistar CityAn astronomy-themed city built around a glowing crystal sundial in the center. Several worthwhile NPCs, plus one emotionally heavy side quest (the Old Man) that pays off only after you've reached the Hall of Fame.
Section 5 Anistar Gym — Olympia, the Psychic LeaderOlympia — Anistar City Gym Psychic-type · Mystical astronomer · Specialty: setup tanks with Psychic + utility Gym puzzle: A starlit cosmic interior.
Section 6 What's Next — Phase 8 SetupThe Psychic Badge is the last "normal" gym before the endgame avalanche. Phase 8 is enormous: Phase 8 preview — Iceberg Badge + Champion: Lysandre Labs raid — the Lysandre Cafe hidden door finally opens.
Section 7 Phase 7 Resources And ChecklistTeam Recommendations Phase 7 is more about depth than new catches. Your team should be locking into its final 6 by now.
