Enter Route 202 and into the first grass you see. Professor Rowan’s assistant [Lucas if you’re playing a girl, Dawn if you’re playing a boy], will call you over and show you how to catch Pokémon. It’s helpful to lower the foe’s HP into the yellow or red before throwing the ball. The assistant will then bestow upon you 5 Pokéballs.
