Location

If you’re just after TM30 Shadow Ball, you will only need to reach the fourth and final floor of the building inside Mt. Pyre. To do that, make sure you already have access to Route 121 and have a Pokémon that knows Surf.

Then head over to Route 121.

Step 1: Start following the path heading east from Route 121.

Step 10: In this next room, there are two different exits.

The exit on the south hallway leads to the mountain’s summit outside, while the staircase on the left leads to the fourth floor of the building. So we want to head towards the left-hand side so we can reach 4F.
