Secret Grove is a bijou grove hidden east of Lagoona Lake accessible only after the player obtains HM3 Surf in Port Decca. It is a compact forest-like area filled with cherry blossom trees and ponds with lily pads. A group of Legendary Pokémon known as Swords of Justice reside here.
Notable Events
Encountering Swords of Justice
Terrakion, Virizion and Cobalion all standing in front of the rock.
Keldeo waiting for the player in the same spot where the others fled.
When the player walks in here, he or she can see quite a few cherry blossom trees and lily pads. In order to continue, turn left and walk all the way until reaching the place where a giant rock is placed. The first 3 members in the Swords of Justice — Cobalion, Virizion and Terrakion, are seen here. When the player tries to approach them, they suddenly throw a sword into the ground and flee from the grove, roaming around Roria.
Once the player has obtained all 3 of the afore-mentioned Pokémon caught and positions them in party, the player can now obtain the final member of this group — Keldeo, who is a Mythical Pokémon instead, in the same spot where the other 3 Pokémon fled. When encountering Keldeo, the player only has one chance, so save beforehand and turn off the Auto Save function. As Keldeo is a Water-type Pokémon, Net Balls are very effective and are recommended to be used on it.
