Platinum Valor Lakefront

Hotels and lakeside shops crowd the Valor Lakefront, the resort strip fronting Lake Valor. Team Galactic seals the whole area off before steering you down to the lake itself.

Valor Lakefront is in Sinnoh, with Lake Valor to the north, Route 214 to the north, and Route 222 to the north. In the story it comes after Ruin Maniac Tunnel and continues south to Route 213.

Pokemon Encounters

Lakeside grass before Pastoria stays ordinary by day, mostly Staravia and Bibarel. Houndour doubles to 20 percent once night falls, and chaining the Pokeradar is how you turn up the Nidorino and Nidorina pair at 11 percent.
