Move north-east and grab the Timer Ball sitting between the Dark and Tall Grass. Head north-west and grab the Ultra Ball hidden in the Dark Grass. Keep heading west, following the Dark Grass. You’ll see a PP Up and Yellow Shard in the grass. Grab them, then continue west.

When your Dowsing MCHN picks up a hidden item, use it to find the hidden Max Repel . Now head east and challenge the Black Belt running around in wide circles.
