Discover which Pokemon and TMs you can find in Still-Water Cavern in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. Learn about rare spawns and unlockable Pokemon.

Alright, let's talk about Still-Water Cavern! It's one of those cool spots in the Grand Underground where you can find a good variety of Pokémon, some of which you might not see anywhere else. Getting there is pretty straightforward: early on, just head west along the main path of the Grand Underground from Eterna City. Later in the game, you can also zip over there from Iron Island, which is super convenient.

As for what you can snag while you're there, keep an eye out for a TM09 Bullet Seed. You'll find it near the south edge of the cavern, about halfway across. Also, there's a Big Mushroom chilling in the north-east corner, so don't miss that!
