  • How to Use: Select the Itemfinder from your Key Items. If an item is nearby, it will beep. The closer you are, the faster it beeps. Face the direction of the beeping and press 'A' to pick up the item.
  • Common Hidden Items: Potions, Poké Balls, Rare Candies, PP Ups, and even some TMs can be found hidden.
  • Thorough Exploration: Always use the Itemfinder in new areas, especially in caves, forests, and cities. Check corners, dead ends, and suspicious-looking tiles.

Finding hidden items can provide a significant advantage, giving you extra resources for your journey. Don't underestimate the power of a good Itemfinder sweep!
