Every region has three Classic zones, its own Survival map and its own leaderboards.

Viridian Forest

The starting region. Use it to learn guardian fights and Unown altars: stand inside an altar’s circle to charge it, because stepping out drains the charge. Press M for the big map, or hold Tab to look at it without pausing.

Survival mode on Viridian Forest with the milestone bar: a guardian every 5 minutes, Mew at 15, Moltres at 30 and Mewtwo at 45
Survival on Viridian Forest: a boss milestone every 5 minutes (Mew at 15, Moltres at 30, Mewtwo at 45), then Endless Night from minute 45.

League challenges here: Onix (win Viridian Forest) and Articuno (win Viridian Forest on Hard, plus a freeze challenge).

Rocky Desert

The second region, and the gate to everything after it. Many League challenges need it:

Lavender Tower Night (event)

The Season 2 Halloween event: a seven-floor climb with Gengar at the top. Each floor gets harder, so bring healing or shields. It ends with the season on November 4.

Guardian names per zone are still being collected. We add them here as we verify them.
