Meeting at the Café

Summary:
At the start of the next day, Tim & Pikachu leave their apartment and go to find Rachel to head to the ruins.

Meeting at the Café

The Southern Ruins

Summary:
When at the ruins, it is soon discovered that it is a lot colder than it normally is and the Pokémon in the local area are not liking the situation.

Hike up to the ruins and Tim & Pikachu will find Chris, Professor Goodman's assistant. He will mention that the Professor has been gone for a couple of days and he believes he's trapped in the ruins but he cannot figure out how to get in. Explore the area and talk to the Passimian and they will mention how it saw the Professor Gordon holding up his partner Slowpoke. With this, the deduction is made that there is another switch panel on top of the ruins door and, along with Pikachu, Tim solves the puzzle and opens the door to the ruins.

The Southern Ruins

Mysterious Passimian Statues

Summary:
Now in the ruins, it is time to find the Professor. Exploring the two accessible rooms in the ruin, three Passimian Statues are found in the middle and in the lefthand room, Slowpoke can be found frozen in the floor. Help Slowpoke out and it will explain how Gordon went even deeper into the ruins but Slowpoke just suddenly got frozen.

On the walls, there are two murals showcasing Passimian with certain berries. Go around the area outside to hunt for the berries in order to solve the puzzle. When you work out which Berry matches the Passimian, yache Berry on the left and Shuca Berry on the right, a third mural is postulated to be behind a wall of ice and Monferno is the prime pick to remove the ice. When that is done, a third mural is shown showing a Passimian with a Tamato Berry, but all the local Tamato Berries have been eaten so a solution needs to be made. Talk things over and it's determined that a curry made by Chris using Tamato Berries will be sufficient. Put that on the pedestal and all three react, opening the door to further into the temple.

Mysterious  Passimian Statues

The Truth of the Jewel

Summary:
Into the depths of the ruins, Gordon's hat is found over a chasm and it's not clear how it got over there. Slowpoke devises a solution of using its powers to fill the hole up with water and quickly follows across. However, with no way to get over, Tim & Pikachu have to ask Lotad for help to create platforms to make it over.

Once over, there is a lot of rubble being seen blocking one of the rooms, but to get to the next room, a rampaging Galarian Darmanitan needs to be passed in a small stealth section. If it sees Tim or Pikachu, then the puzzle needs to be started over.

After completing that, in the next room, a small hole is found in the wall which allows Pikachu to get through and find Professor Gordon, stuck in a room unable to leave. Tim and Pikachu feel that Darmanitan was hungry and that's why it rampaged and so Pikachu decides to lure it with a Slowpoke tail. After Darmanitan has been subdued, it says how it made the area cold for it and its friends who had been taken away from where they had lived and so they tried to make it more comfortable, and when they saw Gordon, it trapped him in there as it was worried the humans were coming back to hurt them. Reluctantly, Darmanitan agrees to help if you promise to help find its friends who are lost throughout the ruins.

Pikachu and Darmanitan can now break rocks throughout the area by punching them. Make way through the blocked rubble with Darmanitan to reunite with Professor Gordon, who will explain that the Aurora Drop is actually a Pokémon and that's why it was stolen.

The Truth of the Jewel

Darmanitan's Request

Summary:
Before you can leave, Darmanitan asks Pikachu to follow through on the agreement and help find its friends, a Smoochum, Vanillite, Mr. Mime and Bergmite.

Vanillite can be found in the main chamber with the Passimian statues, hiding in a pile of snow. Smoochum can be found stuck in a load of icicle boulders and Mr. Mime & Bergmite are found in a room near the entrance which had been blocked off by a frozen wall created by Mr. Mime.

Return to the area and talk to Professor but before you can, the door slams shut behind you and you need to fully find your way out. This is done by investigating two murals that adorn the walls in the area and determining they are the movement of two statues.

Darmanitan's Request

A Bolt of Brilliance!

Summary:
After the investigation, it is determined that the mechanism hinted in the murals is behind another massive wall of ice. Pikachu asks Darmanitan to help but it is reluctant to do so, but eventually relents. When in the next room, a tree and a Clefairy statue can be seen. When the tree is interacted with, an Eiscue falls out of it, another friend of Darmanitan who is even more skittish around humans. Pikachu tries to reason with it.

Deductions are made and it's determined that the human statue is behind another ice pillar, one made by Eiscue. Break it and move the statues and more deductions are made as to why the mechanism doen't work. Freeze the statue's hand and the mechanism will open.

Escape from the Ruins

Summary:
Just as everyone is about to leave, a mysterious man and two Croagunk soon appear and decide to bring in Pikachu. However, Darmanitan steps in to protect Pikachu causing the man to summon a Mamoswine. Mamoswine pushes Darmanitan and Pikachu back and Eiscue comes to help, but also gets pushed back and its Ice Face broken. This angers Darmanitan who changes to Zen Mode and attacks Mamoswine, freeing it from the control and allowing everyone to exit the ruins safely.
