When you return to Route #30 after completing your errand, trainers will attack you whenever you make eye contact.  As you can see from their rosters (to the right), their Pokémon are weak, but they can wear you down.  You can try to avoid them, but it's better to fight when you can: they're the best source of money and EXP in the game.

One new twist is the ability to trade phone numbers with certain trainers once you've defeated them in battle (they will say phone next to their rewards).  If you agree, they'll call you periodically to chat, challenge you to rematches, and most importantly, inform you of Pokémon "swarms."  Without that info, it's hard to catch Pokémon like {{bp|Dunsparce}} in the nearby [[Pokémon Gold and Silver/Dark Cave|Dark Cave]].  A few, like Wade on Route #31, will even give you free items!
