Pokemon Legends Z-A: Trubblesome Patrons Walkthrough (Side Quest)

In Pokémon Legends Z-A, triggering the Trubblesome Patrons mission occurs during your exploration of Lumiose City. This secondary objective (Mission 25) involves assisting Fumi, proprietor of Café Pokémon-Amie, whose business struggles due to lingering Trubbish near her establishment. Their pungent odor repels patrons, prompting Fumi to seek relocation assistance for these Pokémon.

Though combat isn’t required, resolving this issue later unlocks an NPC capable of evaluating Pokémon friendship levels. To initiate the quest, finish Main Mission 10: The Secrets of Mega Evolution, then visit Café Pokémon-Amie on Autumnal Avenue in Magenta Sector 4. Fast-traveling to Centrico Pokémon Center north of Prism Tower provides the swiftest access. Alternatively, arriving via Quasartico Incorporated leads to the same destination. Fumi awaits outside her café to explain the dilemma.

Upon speaking with Fumi, you’ll receive Tasty Trash – a scented item designed to redirect the Trubbish. Follow these instructions:

  1. Begin by accepting Fumi’s request. Proceed southwest from the café while holding the bait.
  2. Advance cautiously. Three Trubbish will trail you automatically. Running is disabled during this segment.
  3. Adhere to designated markers. Straying too far triggers a warning; tracking the quest displays precise navigation points.
  4. Guide the group to an alley. Deposit the Tasty Trash near trash cans using the A button to complete the relocation.

This straightforward task requires minimal time investment and avoids combat.

Upon quest completion, Fumi grants:

  • 1,200 Poké Dollars
  • 2 Rare Candies
  • 5 Dusk Balls

Dusk Balls enhance capture odds in low-light environments, making nighttime huntsESSCially effective.
