Pokémon Ranger/Don't Fear Failure!

From StrategyWiki, the video game walkthrough and strategy guide wiki
Ringtown
Meeting another Ranger

After arriving at Ringtown, Spenser will notice the Minun/Plusle followed you, and it will run away out of fear of this unknown place. Another Ranger along with Plusle/Minun (the opposite of the one you captured earlier) will come out of the Ranger Base to greet you. Their name is Solana(female)/Lunick(male). You will then go into the Ranger Base.

Ringtown's Ranger Base[edit]

Ringtown Ranger Base

You will be introduced to Murph and his partner, Slowpoke. Spenser will round you all up, and will inform you that, from now on, you are assigned to this Base. You'll have to work hard and learn a lot if you want to be recognized as a good Ranger. Just then, a man comes in screaming for help.

Rookie mission[edit]

Player getting first mission

The man, named Larry, claims to have lost his Pokémon in Lyra Forest, and begs that Spenser captures it and brings it back to him. Spenser believes that this would be a perfect first mission for you, and sends you to go capture the Larry's Pokémon, despite how unamused he may seem by this idea.

Styler menu[edit]

Before you can go on the Roomie Mission, Solana/Lunick teaches you how to use your Styler's menu.

After all the explaining is done, go out of the Ranger Base and north of Ringtown to Lyra Forest.

Don't Fear Failure![edit]

Before you enter Lyra Forest, Solana/Lunick thinks the mission will be fun so they tag along with you and runs into the forest.

Mission start

As you enter Lyra Forest, the mission officially starts! However, Larry can't seem to remember the name of his Pokémon, probably out of distress, so you'll have to go around catching every Pokémon you can find and checking if it's the one he's looking for.

After capturing Chikorita and Zigzagoon, go back to Larry. He will tell you that neither of these are his Pokémon. After this, if you go back up, you will find that a new Pokémon has spawned: Taillow.

After capturing the Taillow, Spenser will come out and tell you that that's the Pokémon Larry was looking for. He had known all along, but kept it a secret to see how you'd face the situation. Go back to Larry to return his Taillow to its respectful owner. Solana/Lunick will reveal that their first mission was the same as yours.

Just like that, it's mission complete! Or is it? A boy comes up to you, asking for help as there are trees on fire! You'll have a short tutorial on how Field Moves work (you can refer to the Field Moves page for more info), and you'll see Spenser putting out one of the trees using a Mudkip's Field Move. After that, it's your turn to put out the other tree. Go north of the trees into the tall grass and you'll find 2 Mudkip.

After you've captured at least one Mudkip, go back and put the tree out by tapping on Mudkip then dragging your stylus onto the tree as you were taught earlier.

This time for real, it's your first Mission Completed!

The kid apologizes for accidentally setting the trees on fire, and you will return to the Ranger Base.
