With another Titan down, let’s jump back over to Gym Leaders. We’ll be after the Alfornada Gym Badge. The Gym Leader, Tulip, will specialize in Psychic Pokemon. You can use Bug, Fairy, Dark and Ghost type attacks to help secure your seventh badge.
In order to reach Alfornada, your Koraiden/Miraidon will have to know how to jump up high. If you’ve been following this guide, you have that taken care of already. If not, you will need to have beaten the Lurking Steel Titan.
