·Multi-source verified (95/95)

With all eight badges in hand, you're ready to challenge the Pokémon League! Head east from Ever Grande City (which you reach by Surfing east from Sootopolis City) to find the entrance to Victory Road. Victory Road is a challenging cave filled with strong trainers and wild Pokémon. You'll need to use several HMs to navigate through it, including Strength, Rock Smash, Surf, and Waterfall. Ensure your team is fully healed and stocked with items before entering. At the end of Victory Road, you'll face your rival one last time. After defeating them, you'll reach the Pokémon League building, where the Elite Four and the Champion await. Prepare for a gauntlet of five consecutive battles without the ability to heal at a Pokémon Center.
