Price
|
In the Generation V games, the Odd Keystone can be sold to the ore maniac inside the Icirrus CityPokémon Center for 3000.
Effect
In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, an Odd Keystone can be placed in the Hallowed Tower, which is located on Route 209 in the Sinnoh region. This item has no use in other regions.
If the player talks to 32 or more other players in the Sinnoh Underground after placing the Odd Keystone, a wild Spiritomb will be encountered the next time the player inspects the Hallowed Tower. While in theory it is necessary to talk to 32 different players, in practice another player can be counted twice as long as the player themselves leaves the Underground or enters their Secret Base using the 'close door and decorate' function between the interactions; this potentially allows a player to encounter Spiritomb by interacting with the same player 32 times.
Once placed in Hallowed Tower, the player can check the Odd Keystone to track their progress. The message gradually changes as the player interacts with more players in the Underground.
