Route 12 is a straightforward little area with a lot to see. More or less a direct path from the east to the west, you can trek through Route 12 in any order you like - and you can easily skip just about everything, if you prefer. We'll jump to bullet points to explore this area.
  • North of the exit from Lacunosa Town you'll find a Timer Ball, sitting just outside the walls of the town. If you turn on the Dowsing Machine near the Timer Ball it will lead you into the dark green grass nearby, where you can find a hidden Ultra Ball.
  • There are two trainers running around in the middle of the field just west of the Timer Ball. You need to speak to them to trigger battles. In the middle of the Black Belt's patrol route you'll find a Green Shard, and the Battle Girl is running over a hidden Rare Candy.
  • Near the trainers is one particularly tall hill. Climb atop it with the Dropped Item from Nimbasa City in your inventory and you'll receive a call on your Xtransceiver.

  • There are two trainers waiting to fight you in the southwest corner of Route 12. Just north of them you'll find a break in the fencing that surrounds Route 12. Walk down the path from the break to find a Max Potion.

One part town and one part normal Route, Village Bridge is another area you can run right through if you like. The only opponent you have to encounter will intercept you halfway across the bridge, and even then he'll ask politely if you'll fight him. 

Gentleman Stonewall
  • Durant, level 43
  • Lucario, level 43

Once you've defeated Stonewall you can exit Village Bridge to the west. We want to look around first, though, so let's do that.
  • South of the western entrance to Village Bridge you'll find a tennis court with two trainers running around. Check the top-left corner of the tennis court for a Carbos
  • Leave the tennis court to the left and head north to find a path under Village Bridge, where you'll find another trainer and a large patch of grass. There's a hidden Big Mushroom in the top-left of the grass and a Rare Candy in the top-right.
  • In the grass you'll find a man named Derleth who's busy playing music. He's one of several musicians who add a bit of flare to the background theme of Village Bridge.

  • Head across the bridge. The first house from the eastern entrance contains a healer for your team.
  • On the other side of the bridge is another musician, Russo, who will add an extra something to the music.
  • Standing near Russo is a girl who keeps hearing a sort of sad noise coming from the underside of Village Bridge. If you check the base of the bridge from ground level, just south of this girl and near another musician, you'll find a hidden door leading to another girl who is practicing her singing. Bring this information back to the girl on the bridge and she'll give you five Sitrus Berries.
  • The middle house on the west side of Village Bridge contains a Baker you can fight.
Baker Chris

Youngster Karl
  • Sandslash, level 42

  • On the right side of the grass you'll find the fourth musician, Koontz. North of Koontz, past the underside of the bridge, you'll find a Blue Shard. You can Surf from here to reach a small, nearby island with a Big Pearl on it.
  • If you haven't done it already, hop into the water and Surf to the south side of Village Bridge. There's a small plot of land with a trainer on it. Beside him is a Heart Scale.
