Inferno Volcano

Inferno Volcano, also called IV, is located west of Archford. To get to the entrance, the move Rock Climb and Rock Smash is needed.

The main boss of the dungeon is Groudon.

The ground is a tan, dirt-like texture, with lava being very common and found in large quantities throughout this section. The wall consists of gray stone with lava veins showing. There is no darkness on these floors.

Floors 11-25
The ground transitions from tan to a darker-colored dirt with this section. The walls are orange stone with the lava veins being more prominent. The amount of lava is consistent with the amounts on the previous floor. Darkness is introduced in this area.

After Floor 25, there are puzzles that the player must complete in order to continue. It leads to the mob boss. For the first two, you need to go into the correct warps. The third and last one is a timed switch puzzle.

With this Heart Slate, players can combine the Heart Slate with the Mystery Part to summon Groudon in dungeons. This also gives the player access to Groudon's Precipice Blades if Precipice Blades is a move that is selected when Groudon is summoned. Inferno Volcano is the only dungeon where Red Silk is located.

Tips

 * While is great for training Water-types, watch out for Drought and also Toxicroak which has Dry Skin, meaning it will absorb Water-type moves.
 * A Pass Scarf or Orbs like Foe-Hold can help fight the first boss.
