Stay on the path and follow it to Cortondo.

When you reach the Pokemon Center just outside of Cortondo, you’ll see another Pokemon League rep. Speak to him and he will reward you with Aerial Ace if you’ve beaten more than 5 trainers on your way to Cortondo.

When you reach Cortondo, you can head straight for the Gym.

As you enter it, you’ll meet with Nemona. She’ll explain that each of the Gyms will have a test that you need to pass before you can battle the Gym Leader. She will also give you three Super Potions.

After speaking to her, speak to the man at the front desk. He will register you at the Gym and explain the Olive Roll Gym Test to you.

Gym Test

For this test, you’re going to have to roll a big olive to a goal. Exit the gym and head to the north east corner of town to find the Gym Test

Begin the test push the olive all the way to the goal through the maze.

You can battle trainers inside of the test to open up shortcuts.

Gym Trainer Esmeralda

  • Weak to Flying, Fire, Rock

Gym Trainer Antonio

• Venonant Lv. 13
  • Weak to Fire, Psychic, Rock, Flying

Once you pass the test, heal up your Pokemon and return to the Gym.

Gym Battle

Speak to the man at the front desk to report that you’ve completed the test. He’ll then take you to the area where you’ll battle Katy.

Katy

• Nymble Lv. 14
  • Weak to Fire, Rock, Flying

• Tarountula Lv. 14
  • Weak to Fire, Rock, Flying

• Teddiursa Lv. 15

Katy will Terastallize her Teddiursa, but it shouldn’t pose much of a threat as long as you are properly leveled up after having battled the trainers on the way here.

Upon beating Katy, she will give you the badge. Pokemon up to level 25 will obey you now that you have your first badge.

She will also give you TM021 Pounce.

After the battle, you’ll receive a call from Nemona congratulating you on your first badge. With that out of the way, open your map and fly back to Mesagoza.
