I encountered the same issue, somehow got it to open by moving around the other rooms, lowering/bringing in the water generally messing around. I couldn't seem to repeat the fix even following the same steps so sorry I can't help more

Magical seed is great, especially with Shiinotic and Sleep Powder. Ralts and Kirlia (Fairy/Poison and Fairy/Fire) are both weak to ground so bring a pokemon with Earthquake if you can, Shiinotic even resists it. Gardevior will attack last under Trick Room, should fall after a couple super-effective attacks (weak to Steel, Poison and Fairy). The Ralts and Kirlia all have the ability Friend Guard, reducing damage dealt to their allies. If you can neutralize their abilities or have a pokemon with Mold Breaker, both kinda difficult to do, the fight would be easier.

Can't seem to battle Grand Hall trainers Alola forms with Kanto form abilites when caught, Ability capsules switch to Alola abilities

I was laughing at how weak Fern was, that stopped quickly when I reached the factory. God that's so mean XD Then there's the two grunts with a Lunatone and Solrock and the foreboding grows after seeing their abilities... then WHAM first hard fight of the mod is Aster and Eclipse who totally dumpster Fern and I

@btid_exettv no issues on 18.3 for me, Game.exe or Game-z.exe

Sentret, funnily enough

Thanks! I'll keep an eye out for it, though I haven't seen it yet so there's some hidden trigger.

Could I have some help finding Swablu? I've become very intimate with the Peridot ward Here are some other new locations Nosepass Bastiodon Floette Dedenne Sentret Bergmite Snorunt

I meant restored shadow pokemon, but now I realize a monotype guide isn't really the place for it. I'm really glad you made this up, it is super handy to have on hand. Thanks!

I think you should put in a shadow typing too, if anyone wants to try that out. Does each chapter correlate to the same badge i.e. chapter 4 = up to badge 4?
