Overview

Legendary Birds

The main purpose of Dyna Tree Hill is to trigger the appearance of the Legendary Birds. After you’ve been briefed by Peony at Freezington, the next time you visit this zone, you’ll witness a cutscene of the birds fighting among themselves, before scattering to the winds. From that point on, you can find them roaming elsewhere.

Shake the Giant Tree!

While you’re here, something cool might happen if you try and shake the giant tree in the center. Before you go ahead though, you’ll want your Pokémon to be in tip-top shape.

Items

Brave Bird deals huge Flying-type damage, but afterwards damages the user slightly.

Item Location
TR66 Brave Bird Behind the giant tree, nestled between the tree roots.

Hidden Items

Item Location
Blue Apricorn, Red Apricorn etc. Treat the giant tree in the center of the area as the middle of a clock and the entrance via Ballimere Lake as 6 o’clock. Search the middle of the plants around the 7 o’clock position, a few paces away from the tree trunk.
Pink Apricorn, White Apricorn etc. Among some pebbles near the Pokémon Den at the 9 o’clock position.
Green Apricorn, Red Apricorn etc. Near the leafy bushes by the edge of the hill when traveling a few paces clockwise from the Pokémon Den.
