A guy will hand over the HM06 ROCK SMASH as soon as you get here. The HM06 grants the Rock Smash ability to a Pokemon, but you will need to have Coal Badge, which you can get from the Oreburgh Gym to be able to use the said ability outside battle. You can capture a Geodude Pokemon here as well.
Go east towards the cave exit. Defeat both Pokemon trainers along the way.

A guy will show up and take you to the gym the moment you arrive. Talk to Damion at the entrance and he'll say that the gym leader went to the mine. Check out the town for a bit before proceeding to the mine. Start off by entering the first library building (near the city entrance). There, head to the 2nd floor and talk to one of the girls for a DUSK BALL.
Leave and head to the 2nd floor of the other building. Talk to the boy who is at the right side of the area. He'll ask if you can show him a Zubat Pokemon. Make sure you have the said Pokemon in your inventory, and the boy will give you a heal ball for it. Also, there's a girl here who wants to trade her Abra for a Machop. Feel free to trade with her if you like.
Head back outside and visit the library building southeast of the city. Proceed to the 2nd floor and talk to the kid with a blue cap. He'll give you a GREAT BALL. Return outside once more and head for the mine at the southmost part of the city. Go inside. You may want to head northwards to Route 207 and capture a Machop in the Tall Grass areas.
Go right to pick up an X DEFEND. Continue down further into the mine. In the next area, go left then down to find an ESCAPE ROPE. Battle with some of the workers here.

Speak to the guy in red who turns out to be the Gym Leader. Go on a bit further to find a POTION. Head back out to the city and into the gym.
Battle your way north and face Roark at the top.

You'll receive the COAL BADGE and a TM76 (Stealth Rock ability). You can now use Rock Smash outside of battles. Try to leave the city and you'll run into Damion... again. He'll tip you off on the location of the next gym, which is in Eterna City. Heal up your Pokemon and save your game before leaving.
You can't proceed through Route 207. So you'll have to take the long way starting from Jubilife City.
