Rock Smash

The Rock Smash move has the ability to be used outside of battle in order to destroy Rocks that may be in your way or are just sitting around. In HeartGold & SoulSilver, smashing these rocks can result in a variety of factors. Firstly, in each area, there is a chance of wild Pokémon appearing after you smash a rock. Each area with rocks you can smash has a maximum of two obtainable Pokémon within them.

However, in addition to that, in HeartGold & SoulSilver, there is a slight chance that you will discover an item
