Get Well, Fennekin (Side Mission 8) opens once you’ve progressed past Emma’s challenges and the “Reaching Rank X” main mission arc becomes available. You’ll find the quest giver, Branche, in Magenta Sector 2 (Magenta District), in a small park just northwest of Prism Tower. Interact with Branche to see the sick Fennekin and begin the mission.


Step 1: Talk to the herbalist at Café Classe

Head to Café Classe on Vernal Avenue, beside the Vernal Pokémon Center. Speak with the elderly herbalist inside. He’ll point you toward a cure: a Revitalizing Twig found in Wild Zone 5. Turn on mission guidance so on‑screen markers highlight the twig search area once you arrive.

Tip: Guidance doesn’t reveal the correct twig outright, but it does keep you on the right slice of the map while you navigate the obstacles.

Step 2: Reach Wild Zone 5 and open the path

Travel to Wild Zone 5. There are two ways into the twig area:

  • Clear the sludge in the northwest corner of Wild Zone 5, or
  • Enter via Bleu Sector 3 by clearing the sludge on that side.

Either way, you’ll need to remove muck barriers with a Water‑ or Psychic‑type move to open the passage. Follow the lower tunnel; on the far side you’ll enter a clearing filled with scattered twigs.

Note: A level 27 Alpha Whirlipede patrols this area. You can battle it, but you don’t have to. Interacting with a twig momentarily plays a short cutscene, which prevents you from being attacked, so sprinting through and checking twigs is a safe and efficient approach.

Step 3: Find the correct Revitalizing Twig

Inspect the twigs spread around the clearing. Most of them are damaged. The mission logic ensures the correct Revitalizing Twig is the last twig you pick up, regardless of the order you check them. Keep grabbing each twig you see until you obtain the intact one.

Tip: Stay on the move to avoid the Alpha’s aggro cycle. Loop the perimeter first, then sweep the middle to minimize backtracking.

Step 4: Heal Fennekin and claim rewards

Return to Branche in Magenta Sector 2. Feed the Revitalizing Twig to the sick Fennekin to complete the mission. Once healed, Fennekin joins your party immediately.

Rewards for Get Well, Fennekin:

  • ₽1,200
  • Exp. Candy XS ×3
  • Exp. Candy S ×1
Note: XS and S candies are most efficient on lower‑level Pokémon. Save larger candies for mid‑ and late‑game leveling.

Why it’s worth doing early

Fennekin is a rare Fire‑type and one of the Kalos starters. Completing this side mission early gives you access to the line that ultimately evolves into Delphox, which has a Mega Evolution in Pokémon Legends: Z‑A. Securing Fennekin now positions your team for that future option once its associated stone becomes available.
