=== Get the Quick Claw ===

=== A hole in the fence ===

You might not notice that there's a gap in the fence, but there is a missing rung next to the kid on the upper right.  That's the opening you need to get all the way around to '''TM 28''' in the southwest corner of the park.  TM 28 contains Dig, a solid ground attack that can also be used to teleport you out of dungeons. If you go to the right as soon as you enter, you can also get a Parlyz Heal.

== The Bug-Catching Contest ==

You can only hold one capture Pokémon at a time, so if you have one and catch another, you'll have to pick one to set free.  The goal is to catch the best Pokémon you can get.  You get points based on the rarity of the Pokémon (Scyther, Pinsir, Beedrill and Butterfree are the highest), and on the Pokémon's level.  First prize wins a '''Sun Stone''', Second gets an '''Everstone''', and Third gets a '''Gold Berry'''.  Everyone else gets a regular '''Berry'''.  And of course, you get to keep the Pokémon you caught.

| [[Image:Pokemon 127Pinsir.png|left]] Poor Pinsir is always second-best to Scyther.  This straight Bug Pokémon never gets any Bug attacks, but now you can teach it Bug-type TM 49 (Fury Cutter) and make Pinsir strong versus Psychic and Dark Pokémon.

| [[Image:Pokemon 191Sunkern.png|right]] This straight Grass-type Pokémon can learn Absorb, Mega Drain, and Giga Drain.  Its stats are among the worst in the game, but you can evolve it into a {{bp|Sunflora}} at any time with a Sun Stone, so level it up to 10 (so it learns Mega Drain) than use the Stone.  It won't get Giga Drain, but it will learn Petal Dance and Solarbeam… And get much better stats!

| colspan="2" | [[Image:Pokemon 123Scyther.png|left]] Good old Scyther is back, and better than ever.  The best news is Scyther's new False Swipe, which it learns at level 18.  While relatively weak, this attack always leaves it victim with at least 1 HP.  That makes it invaluable for catching other Pokémon, since you can put them into the red without risking a K.O.
