Casseroya Lake is full of Pokemon, on land and in the water. On the big island near the middle there are lots of Dragon Pokemon like Goomy, Dreepy, and Tatsugiri, with Dratini and Dragonair swimming nearby. The Pokemon in this area are in the high 40s and low 50s, so you’ll want to have most of your badges before coming here.

In addition to being the exclusive home of most Paradox Pokemon, there’s plenty of other high level Pokemon to battle like Floette, Glimora, Gible, Garganacl and some Eeveelutions. The Pokemon in the crater are in the mid to high 50s, so it makes sense that you have to beat the game before visiting this location.

Fury Falls

Fury Falls is located in North Province (Area Two), not far from the Team Star Base. The Pokemon around here are also in the high 40s to low 50s, and you can catch Pokemon like Dugtrio, Noivern, Luxray, Bisharp, and Lokix. There is a cave at the top of the waterfall with a shrine and items, so this area is definitely worth visiting.
