Ramanas Park Guide

Ramanas Park is a brand-new feature in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shiny Pearl that is located along Route 221, where the Pal Park was in the original Diamond and Pearl games. Once you have unlocked this facility, you will be able to catch older legendary Pokemon. Take a look at our Ramanas Park Guide to find out everything you need to know about this new feature.

In order to gain access to Ramanas Park you must first defeat the Pokemon League and complete the main storyline. Once you have achieved this you then need to complete the following set of requirements in the given order.

#2: Travel to Sandgem Town and speak to Professor Rowan who will give you the National Pokedex for completing the Sinnoh Dex.

#3: Once you have the National Dex you will receive a message to visit Ramanas Park.

#4: Head back to Sandgem Town and walk south until you hit the beach on Route 219. You then need to use the Surf HM to enter the water.

#5: Travel west in the ocean to pass through Route 220 and 221 until you eventually hit land. Hop off onto the platform, and you will reach a building that is Ramanas Park.

Inside Ramanas Park you will find a handful of caves that are themed around a specific mythical Pokemon. Each cave leads to a small room with a pedestal where a Slate can be inserted. When you slot in place the Key Item a Legendary Pokemon will spawn and trigger an encounter where you will be transported to an area to fight and catch a level 70 version of the Pokemon. The Slates that need to be slotted can be purchased from a store inside the park's lobby with a Mysterious Shard, this currency can be found by traveling to the Grand Underground using the Explorer's Kit and digging up walls.
