    Head to the north-east trainer and defeat him.
  7. 7
    Immediately go to the north-west trainer without pressing the green button. Defeat him.

Gym Leader Battle: Leader Wulfric

  • Pokémon: Abomasnow (Lv. 56, Grass/Ice), Cryogonal (Lv. 55, Ice), Avalugg (Lv. 59, Ice)
  • Recommended Types: Fire, Fighting, Rock, Steel.
  • Strategy: Abomasnow is Grass/Ice, making it weak to Fire (4x damage) and resistant to Rock. Use Fire-type attacks. The rest of Wulfric's team are pure Ice-types, making them weak to Fire, Fighting, Rock, and Steel.
  • Iceberg Badge (allows all Pokémon to obey, even Level 100s)
  • TM13 - Ice Beam
Tips
  • Be mindful of the button presses; incorrect sequences can make the puzzle more difficult.
  • Bring Pokémon with strong Fire-type attacks for Abomasnow, as its Grass typing makes it resistant to Rock-type moves.
  • After defeating Wulfric, an ice path will appear, allowing you to slide back to the entrance.
  • Consider using the new HM Waterfall outside of battle for exploration.
  • Heal and stock up before leaving Snowbelle City, especially if heading to Route 21 for the Pokémon League.
