Ashen Graveyard

Ashen Graveyard, sometimes shortened to AG, is the continuation of Ash Forest. Unlike its predecessor, the Pokémon here are mainly Ghost-type.

Attributes

 * }

Ashen Graveyard presents a unique scenery - big open rooms with no hallways, only blocked by trees and gravestones, that remains the same for the entire dungeon. These gravestones, similar to those at the entrance, can be broken by pressing 'Enter' facing one, though they have no effect besides freeing the path. Strong darkness shrouds the dungeon, and traps are very unlikely to appear. On Floor 13 is a sealed chamber with a Sinister Box that can contain a Purple Silk.

Boss
Upon reaching Ash Forest Heart, the player meets with the Legendary Pokémon Virizion. It explains how Ash Forest was once called Enchanted Forest, but was destroyed by a group of Pokémon, even mentioning the murder of a previous, unknown guardian. It assumes the player has relation with the group and came only to demolish what was left even more, then engages battle.

It has the following moves:
 * Leaf Blade
 * Swords Dance
 * Stone Edge
 * Sacred Sword

Boss drop:
 * Big Mushroom
 * TM Swords Dance
 * Virizion's Heart Slate

Forest Sanctuary
After defeating the boss, a warp will appear leading to a special end room containing a single Deluxe Box. Virizion mentions it restored this area to match Enchanted Forest's original appearance before being destroyed. Additionally, the player can use Honey to spawn several Ribombee and Spring Form Sawsbuck that may spawn alongside a single Cutiefly or Spring Form Deerling. Both can be spawned in the same run simultaneously and indefinitely.

Box items:
 * Cleanse Tag
 * Charcoal
 * Dusk Stone
 * Honey
 * Revival Herb
 * TM Dazzling Gleam
 * TM Energy Ball
 * TM Flamethrower
 * TM Infestation
 * TM Overheat
 * TM Swords Dance
 * White Flute

Dungeon Objective
Besides completing the dungeon, the main objectives here are recruiting two previously event-exclusive Pokémon, Cutiefly and Deerling, and the rare Litwick, or obtaining a Purple Silk. Virizion also has a chance of dropping its Heart Slate.

Tips

 * Due to the vast open space, bringing an item that removes the heavy darkness (such as an X-Ray Specs/Charm) is recommended, as it allows for far easier exploration.
 * Beware of the constant use of Grudge and Ominous Wind, as both can quickly wear you down.
 * Packing and/or picking up a lot of Ethers along the way can greatly mitigate the former's effects.
 * Using the move Flash can make this even worse, as Flash improves the enemy's vision. X-Ray Specs/Charm will not improve enemy vision, so use those items instead.

Trivia

 * Ashen Graveyard and Sunny Hillside are the only dungeons in which using Honey in the end room will spawn Pokémon (used to in Sunny Hillside). However, this is the only case where they're recruitable.
