Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are quite easy games before the Elite Four. The only hurdles you may face as you defeat every gym leader are any sort of curveballs they might throw at you with their signature Pokemon. Some may even have Gym layouts that can be quite the time waster if you don’t know how to solve it, like Candice’s. Here is how you can beat the Snowpoint City Gym puzzle in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

How to solve the Snowpoint City Gym ice puzzle in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl

Start from the highest still point before the ice. Then, go right and hit the snowball. Then go up twice to hit the second patch of still ground.

Head down from that location, then go left. You’ll end up back at the middle floor stairs. Make your way down and left to go back up to the uppermost part of the gym.

By the trainer on the bottom left, stick on the right path and go up until you hit the right snowball.

Go right and slide to smash the next snowball blocking another set of stairs.

Repeat the process by heading to the bottom and left part of the gym, back to the pair of snowballs. From here on the right snowball, go left, then down to hit the walkable patch of snow.

From here, go right and battle the trainer. After winning the battle, run right and smash the last pair of snowballs blocking the bottom part of the center.
