Walkthrough
Step 1: Speak With Chef Dente
Head to the kitchen area and talk to Chef Dente. He asks for a frying pan so he can cook proper meals. Chef Dente directs you to ask Professor Tangrowth how to make one.
Step 2: Consult Professor Tangrowth
Talk to Professor Tangrowth about the frying pan. Tangrowth explains you need a Copper Ingot, which requires access to the Smelting Furnace in the mines.
Step 3: Access the Smelting Furnace
If you have not already, complete the "Cut Down That Fence" quest to clear the path to the mines. The Smelting Furnace is located inside the mine area.
Step 4: Mine Copper Ore and Smelt Ingots
Mine Copper Ore from deposits near the mine entrance. Bring the ore to the Smelting Furnace along with a Pokemon that has the Burn specialty (such as Magmar) to activate the smelting process. Smelt the ore into Copper Ingots. You need two Copper Ingots for the Frying Pan.
Step 5: Craft the Frying Pan
Use two Copper Ingots to craft a Frying Pan at your workbench. Place the finished Frying Pan on the cooking stove in the kitchen.
Step 6: Learn the Chef Transformation
Talk to Chef Dente after placing the Frying Pan. He teaches you the chef appearance transformation, which is a cosmetic option.
Step 7: Gather Ingredients and Cook
Collect 4 Beans from the farm area. Use the Frying Pan on the stove to cook a Hamburger Steak with the Beans.
Step 8: Eat the Hamburger Steak
Consume the Hamburger Steak to unlock Powered-Up Rock Smash, which allows you to break sturdier blocks that regular Rock Smash cannot handle.
Rewards
Powered-Up Rock Smash: An upgraded version of Rock Smash that can destroy reinforced blocks and sturdy stone formations
Frying Pan recipe: Permanently unlocks the Frying Pan as a cooking station item
Chef transformation: A cosmetic appearance change taught by Chef Dente
Tips
Build Magmar's habitat near the Smelting Furnace. The materials for the habitat are already available in the mine area, and having Magmar close by makes smelting much more convenient.
Any Pokemon with the Burn move can activate the Smelting Furnace, not just Magmar. Use whatever Burn-specialty Pokemon you have available.
Powered-Up Rock Smash opens up many new areas across the game. After getting it, revisit regions with reinforced blocks you could not break before.
This quest chains directly into "Investigate the Source of Music," which requires Powered-Up Rock Smash to reach DJ Rotom in the mines.
