Elsewhere Forest (Japanese: トキシキの森 Tokishiki Forest) is a forest on Belusylva Island of the Lental region.
Layout
The course starts in a foggy forest with Trevenant and Espurr. After passing by some Shiftry and hidden Kecleon, the NEO-ONE passes some fog, which leads to an area which changes depending on the randomly selected season. After passing through another foggy path, the NEO-ONE enters a sunny forest with Bewear and Pancham. After passing through a log, there are some ancient ruins and a lake with Lotad. The course ends after passing by the lake. Starting from Level 3, the seasons can be selected by doing various actions with an Espeon which appears throughout the course.
Alternate routes
- Near the start of the course, there is a Trevenant blocking a path in the course. Starting from Level 3, the player can play a melody to cause it to move, which leads to a path with Espurr and Espeon.
- After reaching the second foggy path, there are several crystablooms that are located on the right of the course. By lighting up the first, second, third (the crystabloom at the back, not the front), and fourth crystablooms, the player can reunite a Deerling with Sawsbuck, and this unlocks a path to the sunny spot. In the sunny spot, there are various Pokémon that have been encountered in the course previously. After that, there is a corner with trees, Deerling and Sawsbuck in different seasons, and the course ends after passing the corner.
Seasons
- Spring: The season can be selected by feeding Espeon a fluffruit on the main route. During Spring, there are many cherry blossom trees, and Pokémon such as Unfezant, Shiftry, Deerling and Sawsbuck. In the middle of the area, there is a large tree with piles of petals.
- Summer: The season can be selected by illuminating Espeon with an Illumina orb on the main route. During Summer, there are many trees and bamboo, and Pokémon such as Unfezant, Pancham, Bulbasaur, Deerling and Sawsbuck. In the middle of the area, there is a waterfall with some Bulbasaur.
- Autumn: The season can be selected by feeding Espeon a fluffruit on the first alternate route. During Autumn, there are many trees and piles of fallen leaves, and Pokémon such as Serperior, Applin, Deerling and Sawsbuck. In the middle of the area, there is a small river and some trees.
- Winter: The season can be selected by illuminating Espeon with an Illumina orb on the first alternate route. During Winter, there are dead trees and snow, and Pokémon such as Gardevoir, Bewear, Deerling and Sawsbuck. In the middle of the area, there is a cave with sleeping Bewear. There is also a ledge with a Ninetales on the right.

| Sylvan Sentinel's Secret Side | Trevenant may seem scary, but if you look carefully, you’ll see there’s more to it than meets the eye. | Level 3 | At the start of the stage, a lone Espurr appears on the right. Scanning the area can grab its attention, and fluffruit can be used to lure the Espurr to a nearby Trevenant. Throwing Illumina orbs on both Pokémon when they are nearby can trigger the Espurr to jump on Trevenant's hand. | That's right. Trevenant seems to be awfully kind to the other Pokémon that live in the forest. | None |
| An Airborne Boulder | Doesn’t this floating boulder pique your curiosity? I suspect some Pokémon’s power is behind this.. | Level 3 | Three Espurr will be present on the first alternate path levitating the boulder together. | I see! Those Espurr were combining their powers to keep the boulder aloft. How satisfying to have an answer! | None |
| Gust with Gusto | Shiftry is said to be able to create powerful winds. I’d love to see what that looks like... | Level 3 | A Shiftry sleeping on a tree on the right side of the spring route can be awoken by throwing a fluffruit. Throwing an Illumina orb after it jumps into the center of the route triggers Shiftry to fan its arms to create gusts (either after running onto a tree or on top of a pile of leaves). | Oh, wow! You got a shot of Shiftry in action! Look at that whirlwind of petals! | Leaf 2
(Sticker) |
| Upside-Down Hide-and-Seek | Hey, have you ever found a hiding Kecleon? Sometimes you find ‘em in the weirdest poses. It’s hilarious! | Level 3 | An upside down Kecleon on hanging from a tree on the spring path can be revealed by scanning and throwing a fluffruit at it. | No way! And you got a perfect shot of it, too! This must’ve been hard to take, huh? | Emote 13
(Sticker) |
| Little Lost Deerling | This Sawsbuck seemed to be searching for something the whole time I was out doing research. Maybe it got separated from its Deerling... | Level 3 | Lighting up four crystablooms on the right side of the path in the second foggy area reunites a Deerling with a Sawsbuck. On the third set of crystablooms, the crystabloom at the back must be lit up, while lighting up the front flower will not trigger this event. | They found each other! Thank goodness! Did you bring them back together? That’s awesome! YOU’RE awesome! | Effect 5
(Frame) |
| A Seasonal Gathering | There’s something mysterious about this place, don’t you think? I get this feeling that the impossible could happen here. | Level 3 | On the sunny spot alternate route, an Espeon can be brought down from its ledge by scanning. Throwing a fluffruit will then cause it to eat it and run to the opposite side. Once it reaches the other side, throwing Illumina orbs at it will cause a third Sawsbuck to join two others around a crystabloom. The fourth can be brought when the central cystabloom is illuminated. Once all four Sawsbuck have been brought together, playing a melody will cause them to howl. | What a photo! I doubt anyone could ever re-create it! | Flower 3
(Sticker) |
| Egg Patrol | In summer, you just might find Unfezant nests with Eggs in them. Would you mind bringing me a photo of that? | Level 1+ | A female Unfezant can be found in the summer path, with the female lying on a nest of Eggs. Throwing fluffruit at the Pokémon causes them to get angry. When the female Unfezant gets angry, it will expose the Eggs it is lying on for a brief moment. | Excellent! This photo should prove useful to my research. Thank you! | None |
| Angry Drampa | Drampa is seriously scary when it gets angry. You better watch out—I’m not kidding! | Level 3 | A Drampa can be found on the right side of the summer path. If an Illumina orb is thrown at this Drampa, a flying Drampa will spawn in the alternate ending route with a Bulbasaur and Pancham on its back. Once it lands, fluffruit can be thrown at it to cause it to become angered. | Gaaah! Don’t make Drampa mad! I mean, obviously, I’m not scared of it or anything...but you still shouldn’t do that! | None |
| A Pair of Chums | When Drampa flew by, I could hear happy cries coming from its back! There must’ve been a Pokémon riding Drampa, but I couldn’t tell what it was. | Level 3 | A Drampa can be found on the right side of the summer path. If an Illumina orb is thrown at this Drampa, a flying Drampa will spawn in the alternate ending route with a Bulbasaur and Pancham on its back. | Aha, so it was Pancham! Looks like it’s having a great time! | None |
| Weird Crossing | OK, listen! You’re not gonna believe what I saw. Bulbasaur was coasting across the surface of the water all like...whoosh! I’m not kidding!' | Level 1+ | A Bulbasaur can be seen towards the end of the main route near a pond. One the Bulbasaur has stopped walking, throwing an Illumina orb at a Lotad in the pond as well as the Bulabsaur will cause Bulbasaur to ride on the Lotad. | See, see?! It’s coasting right—Oh, it was just riding on Lotad. Still, though! Whoosh! | None |
| A Moment's Rest | Serperior always seems so stuffy and serious. Do you think it ever takes a moment to relax? | Level 3 | Serperior at the end of the route appears hidden behind the ancient ruins. It can be lured out with an Illumina orb. After eating a fluffruit, playing a melody will cause it to go to sleep. | Oh, whoa! You found it sleeping!I didn’t even think it was capable of relaxing this much! | None |
| Heart of a Dragon | Applin hides in its apple most of the time, but when push comes to shove, it’ll stick up for itself and act threatening. Have you ever seen that happen? | Level 2+ | An Deerling at the start of the autumn route can be brought closer to an Applin with fluffruit. When Deerling approaches the Applin, Applin will emerge from its apple and intimidate Deerling. | Hey, you got a shot of it! Nice! You can tell from this photo that it’s a Dragon type through and through. | None |
| Danger Warning | When Bewear waves its arms around wildly, that’s a warning that it’s on guard. If you’re out taking photos and you see one start waving, watch out! | Level 1+ | A Bewear towards the end of the route when interrupted by multiple fluffruit will wave its arms. | Wait, you photographed it after I warned you?! I understand your curiosity, but... Well, at least you were safe in the NEO-ONE. | Eyebrow 1
(Sticker) |
| Winter Wonders | Gardevoir and some other Pokémon looked like they were having such a good time! What were they up to, I wonder... | Level 3 | A Gardevoir found on the left of the path in the winter section will perform a series of actions when Illumina orbs are regularly thrown at it. Its last action in its sequence is to create ice leaves on a bare tree. | Oh my gosh! What beautiful snow crystals! They look just like flowers! | Effect 11
(Sticker) |
| Flickering Flames | I caught a glimpse of flames flickering amid all the snow. What could it be? | Level 3 | When Gardevoir in the winter path performs its third sequence (throwing ice in the air), instead of throwing more Illumina orbs to trigger its fourth sequence, waiting for Gardevoir disappear leaves two Deerling in range of Ninetales's field of view. Interrupting the Deerling with fluffruit angers the Ninetales which will cause it to jump down and begin swirling purple flames around it. | So those were Ninetales’s flames! Thanks for looking into that for me. | Foggy Forest |
| A Tad Happy | Hey, you ever seen Lotad look really, really happy? ‘Cause I have, and I’ve got the photo to prove it! Maybe I’ll show it to you sometime! | Level 3 | A Lotad on the right side of the path on the alternate end to the route can be moved to the river if a fluffruit is thrown at it. When this Lotad joins its two friends in the river, playing a melody causes the three Lotad to stack on top of each other. | You got a photo of it, too?! W-well, yours is fine, but mine’s better! I’ll show it to you, uh... some other time! | Phil (Smiling) |
| A Calming Air | Rita and Phil told me they tried to feed Espeon fluffruit, but it wouldn’t bite. Why don’t you give it a try? | Level 3 | On the sunny spot alternate route, an Espeon can be brought down from its ledge by scanning. Throwing a fluffruit will then cause it to eat it. | Ah, it ate that fluffruit right up! I bet that calming air of yours is what made Espeon feel so safe and secure. | None |
| Myth of the Forest | All those ruins scattered around the forest got me thinking... Maybe Celebi is waiting for its friends. | Level 2+ | Throwing Illumina orbs at Celebi can trigger a sequence of events as Celebi teleports throughout the route. Celebi also needs to be fed a fluffruit (at the spot next to where Applin can be found). Once an Illumina orb is thrown when Celebi is perched on top of the ancient ruins, three other Celebi will approach the lone Celebi. Playing a melody will cause all of them to react. | So Celebi was waiting for its friends after all! Thanks for looking into that hunch of mine. | None |
