Popplio Special Encounter

	Spoiler warning!
	This article contains plot details about events that occur later in the game.

Coral Ward Lighthouses

The fisherman on the northern dock in the Coral Ward will mention that the old Lighthouse to the north has been locked up for longer than anyone can remember, saying the Key was lost long ago. The Key is, in fact, very close by.

The Coral Key

Starting from the dock below, there is a hidden Dive point behind the southern Lighthouse.

After diving you will reach a cave. There are a couple hidden objects in the cave, as well as a path to progress to the south, leading up into the southern lighthouse. At the top of the Lighthouse are a couple items, including the Coral Key needed to unlock the northern Lighthouse. Head back through the dive section and use the key to unlock the door.

Helping Popplio

Within the northern lighthouse is another Dive point. Go down and you'll see Popplio being trapped by a Gorebyss and Huntail, which you'll have to defeat in a double battle. After defeating them, Popplio will be thankful and will want to go with you. Popplio has the Egg Move Perish Song in its moveset.

Pokemon Predators is battled on an Underwater in a Double Battle format.
