You will want your Pokemon closer to lvl. 20 for this Gym, the leader's are around there.
Head in, the Gym is in the back of the Museum, so you must trudge through here first. Just part the reception desk though, something is happening. The assistant director of the museum, Hawes, is looking at a Pokemon skeleton. He proceeds to give you a tour of the museum. He shows you the skeleton he was looking at, explaining the theory around it. After that, he shows you a meteorite (yes, it helps a particular space Pokemon change forms) that has a strange energy about it. Next is a pretty stone. He concludes by showing you the entrance to the Pokemon Gym. He also reveals that he is married to the Gym Leader, Lenora!
Head into the Gym itself, your guide greets you. He will give you some encouraging words and give you a Fresh water to help you through the challenging battles to come. He also tells you that if you want to get some Fighting-Type Pokemon, you should head to the Pinwheel Forest next to town. He explains that to move forward you will need to find particular books and answer the questions inside them. His hint is the first book is “Nice to Meet You, Pokemon”.
Walk on forward to find your first challenger in the Gym, School Kid Carter with his Patrat lvl. 17. He tells you that the book is in the children's section in the library, which is close to the entrance. This book is found in the blue section of the bookshelf on the left. The first question is What was the first Pokemon you met in this Gym? She says the hint is on a bookshelf in the middle row.
Head to the middle row and there is a girl you can talk to. She will ask if a particular Pokemon was the first you met in this Gym. Answer “No” and she will tell you that the answer is on the bookshelf to the left. Look on the left-hand side of the left bookshelf and you will find a book entitled “The Biology of Patrat”. Your character will find the next memo. The next question is “Flames burn inside its body and while it gives off smoke from its head while it runs … What is this book?” She gives you a hint that someone maybe reading it. There is a person in the next row doing just that so you should go talk to them. Do so and they will tell you they are reading “The Structure of Locomotives”. A little thought ties the two together, so the answer is “Yes”. They will then challenge you to a Pokemon Battle. This is Scientist Satomi who sends out a Herdier lvl. 17.
After that Satomi stands aside and lets you read the book she was. When you get to a particular point you find the next memo. Lenora congratulates you for finding this. Now she asks her third question: “If you heat it up in a pot, it'll be delicious. What is this?” The hint is on a bookshelf closer to the entrance than where you are. If you want another hint, talk with the girl who asked you about the first Pokemon you battled in this Gym. She will mention a book about berries and something about cooking them. She will allude to making something with Berries but cannot recall what they were called. Head down one row and look into the children's books. There is a book on the right bookshelf on the right-hand side called “Sweets for Pokemon”. It takes about tasty treats for Pokemon called Poffins! This book has the fourth and final riddle, “From this bookshelf … Move two backward, move one to the left, move two forward, one to the right, and move one backward … Now, where is it?” The hint is simply “Find it by yourself”. Well, that would be harder to do without it written down. Following the directions do not get you anywhere. Talk with the person one row up to finally challenge them. This is School Kid Lydia with her 3 Lillipup lvl. 15. Beat her and she will stand aside and let you get to the last book. Read it to find the final memo which will a hidden staircase, giving you access to Lenora.
Gym Leader Lenora
Herdier lvl. 18 (With Intimidate, which lowers attack) – Take Down, Retaliate, Leer, Bite
Watchog lvl. 20 – Retaliate, Crunch, Leer, Hypnosis
The Watchdog, using Retaliate can one hit KO strong Pokemon so be careful the first turn after the Herdier faints. Try to start with a strong Pokemon for the battle, take out the Herdier, then switch to something to soak the potential Retaliate. After that, send in your Pokemon that is best against Normal-Types. Retaliate will be at normal strength and you will have a much easier time taking down the Watchdog. It still has Hypnosis, so keep on-guard and take advantage of the Chesto Berries Cheren gave you a little while ago.
After that battle she will award you with the Basic Badge and TM 67, Retaliate. Making it so
you too can have that move at your command. Just after the congratulations something starts happening in the area above. Time to go see what it is.

Since this is a Normal-type Gym, you should go to the west of Nacrene City and then head south into the outer area of Pinwheel Forest, whereyou can catch Throh, Sawk, and Timburr.You should also go into Wellspring Cave to the north and catch a Roggenrola Battleship 2012 tamil dubbed free. download full. if you can.Purrloin is a good backup because of its strength against Bite and Crunch.
Finding the Gym
The Gym is at the back of the Nacrene Museum. You will see a Dragonite skeleton, as well as a meteorite and other objects on display.Hawes, the assistant director of the museum and Lenora's husband, will take you on a brief tour of the museum and will tell you that the gymcan be accessed through the door at the back of the museum.
In the Gym, you get a Fresh Water from the guy at the entrance. The first trainer will send out an L17 Patrat.Use your Throh, Sawk, or Timburr.
How to Get through the Gym Puzzle
Pokemon Black And White Rematch At The Nacrene Gyms
To reach Lenora, you need to follow a set of clues that are hidden in the books on the bookshelves. The first clue is in the book 'Nice to Meet You, Pokémon!' which you can find in the bottom-left bookshelf. The clue asks you which Pokémon youbattled first in the gym. The gym is set up such that Patrat has to be the first pokémon that you battled.
Pokemon Black And White Rematch At The Nacrene Gym -
Go to the middle bookshelves and look for a book called The Biology of Patrat. This book has the next clue in it, which mentionsa pokémon that has a fire inside and blows smoke when it moves. The note says to find a book about that pokémon, but it says thatsomeone is reading that book rightnow.
The person reading the book is the scientist in the back of the room. You will fight against her L17 Herdier.Again, Throh, Sawk, and Timburr are ideal. When you defeat her, she willstep away from the bookshelf. Read the book that is there and you will find the next note. It asks what type of food can be cooked in a pot and tastes delicious.
The answer is in the bottom-right bookshelf. There is a book about Poffins there. In the book is a note sayingto go two spaces back, one to the left, two spaces forward, and one to the right. I'm not sure how it's supposed to lead you to the nextclue, but the answer is with the school kid who is standing at the shelf just above the one with the Poffins book. She asks if you needto challenge her in order to meet with Lenora, and you should say yes. She has three L15 Lillipups.Once again, Throh, Sawk, and Timburr are your best choice.
Pokemon Black And White Rematch At The Nacrene Gym Plan
Once you defeat her, check the bookshelf that she was standing in front of. You will find a switch below the book there. You automaticallypress it, and a bookshelf will move out of the way to reveal a staircase.
Pokemon Black And White Rematch At The Nacrene Gym Leaders
Go down those stairs and you will find Lenora.
Strategy for Lenora
Lenora has a level 18 Herdier and a level 20 Watchog.Both of her pokémon have the ability Retaliate. This move increases in powerif an ally of the pokémon using it fainted on the same turn. This means that once you defeat one of Lenora's pokémon, the otherwill have the stronger Retaliate move, so watch out for that. Otherwise, Herdier can use Bite and Take Down, and Watchog can inflict sleepand also has the Crunch move. Both pokémon have Leer.
As with the other pokémon in this Gym, Throh, Sawk, and Timburr are your best opponents. You might want to bring your Roggenrola inas well, especially to deal with the Retaliate move.
The Retaliate move is the main thing to watch out for. If you want to spare your fighting-type pokémon from getting the full forceof the powered-up Retaliate, then switch to a pokémon that you don't need to use before Lenora sends out her secondpokémon. It might faint, but at least you will protect the pokémon who need to stay in the fight.
Once you win, you will receive the Basic Badge. Lenora will also give you the TM for Retaliate.
