Walkthrough
Step 1: Reach the Elevated Area
Look for the glowing yellow item on a high ledge. You cannot reach it by jumping alone. Stack blocks to create makeshift stairs, building a pathway upward toward the objective. Place blocks strategically to form steps you can climb.
Step 2: Break Through Obstacles
Use Rock Smash to break any rocks blocking your path as you climb. Clear the way until you can reach the glowing item at the top.
Step 3: Collect the Dowsing Machine
Interact with the glowing object to obtain the Dowsing Machine. This tool highlights buried items in the ground when activated.
Step 4: Show Hitmonchan
Return to Hitmonchan and present the Dowsing Machine. Hitmonchan explains that the device helps locate buried treasures underground and requires a Pokemon with the Search specialty to operate effectively.
Rewards
Dowsing Machine: A tool that highlights buried items in the ground. Requires a Pokemon with the Search specialty (such as Vespiquen) following you to activate.
Tips
Block stacking is a core traversal mechanic in Pokopia. Get comfortable with placing blocks to create paths, as you will use this technique frequently throughout the game.
The Dowsing Machine is essential for finding fossils and Lost Relics. Always bring a Search-specialty Pokemon when exploring new areas.
Hitmonchan stays in the Withered Wasteland area and offers additional requests later in the game.
