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.

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:
| Partner | Challenge |
|---|---|
| Cubone | Defeat 4 guardians of the Rocky Desert |
| Kabuto | Defeat 8 guardians of the Rocky Desert |
| Omanyte | Get 50,000 KOs in the Rocky Desert |
| Aerodactyl | Win the Rocky Desert |
| Zapdos | Win the Rocky Desert (plus a rain challenge) |
| Moltres | Defeat Moltres in the Rocky Desert on Hard (plus a burn challenge) |
| Mewtwo | Win the Rocky Desert on Hard (plus capture all three birds) |
Storm Coast (Season 2)
Home of Zapdos and six new guardians. Watch out for rising tides and waterspouts.
A Water + Electric move pair makes the Conductive Storm reaction fusion. See move fusions.
Celestial Glacier (Season 2)
Home of Articuno and six more guardians. Hazards include blizzards and frozen lakes.
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.
