Pokemon Legends: Z-A Guide "Side Mission 009 - A Challenge from Froakie"

This article is just a part of our massive guide to Pokemon Legends: Z-A

Located around here, look for a gentleman in a hardhat named Surv. He informs you that his crew has built the "greatest, hardest-ever scaffolding course!"

He then says the record holder for completing it fastest is currently a Froakie. Gee, I wonder if I'll get the Froakie at the end of this mission.

Surv tells me that to show up the Froakie I have to beat the course in less than 30 seconds.

Don't worry, it is absolutely not the greatest nor the hardest. In fact, once you realize you don't even need to dodge roll over the gap it's really simple. Just run over the little gap after going up the ladder and you're fine.

Surv congratulates you before getting REALLY creepy looking and telling you that the "gauntlet is still long before you". Oh good.

JESUS CHRIST, MY DUDE

There's actually more. Once Surv runs off and you have control again you'll see him on the ramp ahead of you. Just go there.

Stage two needs to be completed in 40 seconds. If you're not afraid and run over the narrow platforms, you'll easily beat it in less than 20 seconds.

Froakie will leave again and I guess it's off to the next one. Okay, where did they go? Oh, they're all the way on the northern edge.

Bro stepped out for milk

For the third, you need to beat it in less than 50 seconds. Let's go. You'll want to dodge roll through the narrow gap and turn 180 to see a ladder. That'll take you up to the narrow platforms. From there it's just a game of not falling.

This time Froakie doesn't bail. Surv congratulates you a third time and calls you a Ninja Master. He tells me this insane line, that through the magic of scafolding courses I bonded with Froakie.

And now I have a Froakie.

Mission Complete! Enjoy your 1800 Gold, 3 Exp. Candy XS, 1 Exp. Candy S, and, you know, a whole Froakie.
