pokemon rejuvenation hidden library 2 Location and Requirements

The pokemon rejuvenation hidden library 2 quest is a Chapter 2 side quest connected to Sheridan Village and the Hidden Library. You can begin it after gaining access to Sheridan Village, but the original Hidden Library quest must already be complete.

Start the quest at Sheridan Help Plaza by speaking with the hiker outside the plaza. The opening objective is to meet the client and investigate three locations with Karen. These destinations create a straightforward route through East Gearen City and Gearen Park before the library becomes accessible.

Before You Leave Sheridan

Save your progress before accepting the quest, then make sure you can travel between Sheridan Village, East Gearen City, and Gearen Park without interrupting the route.

Sheridan Village

Begin the quest at Sheridan Help Plaza and return here after obtaining the Ancient Book.

East Gearen City

Visit the Chrisola Hotel first, then continue toward Dr. Jenkel's Lab.

Gearen Park

Speak with Karen at the fountain before entering the Hidden Library.

The quest is not intended to be completed after the Chapter 10 train transition. If you are approaching the departure for Grand Dream City, finish this side quest first so its objectives and rewards remain available.

Step-by-Step Quest Walkthrough

Follow the objectives in order. Karen moves the quest forward at several points, while the hiker and Henry handle the opening and closing conversations.

1

Accept the Quest at Sheridan Help Plaza

Enter Sheridan Help Plaza and accept “The Hidden Library 2.” Speak with the hiker directly outside the plaza to receive the investigation objectives. The next destinations are the Chrisola Hotel, Dr. Jenkel's Lab, and Gearen Park.

2

Meet Karen at the Chrisola Hotel

Travel to East Gearen City and visit the Chrisola Hotel. Karen is waiting outside. Speak with her to confirm the first investigation and receive directions to Dr. Jenkel's Lab.

3

Visit Dr. Jenkel's Lab

Go to Junction Bridge and enter the laboratory at its north end. Speak with Karen inside the lab to continue the quest, then proceed to Gearen Park.

4

Find Karen at Gearen Park

Enter Gearen Park and speak with Karen near the fountain. After the conversation, enter the Hidden Library to begin the final exploration segment.

5

Retrieve the Ancient Book and Return

Explore the library, then enter the north room to receive the Ancient Book from Karen. Return to Sheridan Village and speak with the hiker. Decide whether to hand over the book or keep it, then return to Sheridan Help Plaza for the remaining rewards.

Do Not Skip the Return Trip

The quest does not finish when you leave the Hidden Library. You must return to Sheridan Village, speak with the hiker, resolve the Ancient Book decision, and visit Sheridan Help Plaza.

Use the destination order above to avoid unnecessary backtracking. The Chrisola Hotel comes before the laboratory, and Gearen Park is the final outdoor checkpoint before entering the library.

Hidden Library Exploration and Collectibles

Once Karen allows you to enter the Hidden Library, take time to explore before entering the north room. The library contains additional rewards that are easy to miss if you rush directly toward the quest objective.

The main exploration task involves colored books. Pick up all of the colored books and return them to the appropriate location in the east room. Completing this arrangement allows you to obtain an Elgyem.

Exploration objectiveResult
Explore the library before finishing the dialoguePreserves access to optional rooms and items
Collect the colored booksRequired for the east-room puzzle
Return the books to their locationUnlocks the Elgyem encounter or pickup
Search the library roomsReveals two TMs
Enter the north roomAdvances the story and awards the Ancient Book

The Elgyem objective is separate from receiving the Ancient Book. You can explore the library and complete the colored-book task before entering the north room. This makes the safest order:

  1. Search accessible rooms.
  2. Collect every colored book.
  3. Return the books in the east room.
  4. Check the area for both TMs.
  5. Enter the north room.
  6. Speak with Karen and receive the Ancient Book.
Exploration Priority

Finish the colored-book task and collect the two TMs before entering the north room. This keeps the optional library rewards in your current route.

Colored Books

Gather every colored book and return them to the correct place in the east room.

Elgyem

Completing the book arrangement provides access to an Elgyem you can obtain.

Two TMs

Search the library carefully because two TMs are available during this visit.

The available reference information does not identify the names of the two TMs. Treat the library as an exploration area rather than relying on a specific item-name checklist.

Ancient Book Choice and Quest Rewards

After exploring the library, enter the north room and receive the Ancient Book from Karen. The final decision occurs after you return to Sheridan Village and speak with the hiker.

You can either hand over the Ancient Book or keep it. Handing it over grants a Blue Moon Ice Cream, which maximizes the friendship of one Pokémon. If you hand over the book, it can later be purchased from the Kecleon shop on Route 2 for 75,000 Pokémon Dollars.

DecisionImmediate resultLater availability
Hand over the Ancient BookReceive Blue Moon Ice CreamThe book can later be purchased from the Kecleon shop on Route 2
Keep the Ancient BookRetain the bookThe available guide data does not specify an additional immediate item
Complete the quest routeReceive the listed completion rewardsReturn to Sheridan Help Plaza for the remaining rewards

The quest’s listed completion rewards include:

RewardQuantity or valueNotes
Pokémon Dollars950Granted as part of quest completion
Water Stone1Useful for compatible evolutionary requirements
Karma+1Added to the character’s Karma total
Blue Moon Ice Cream1, if the book is handed overMaximizes one Pokémon’s friendship
Ancient BookChoice-dependentHand it over or keep it during the final conversation

Choose based on your current priorities. Blue Moon Ice Cream is valuable when you need to maximize one Pokémon’s friendship, while keeping the Ancient Book may be preferable if you want to retain the item immediately. The book’s later Kecleon shop availability makes the handover choice less restrictive, but the purchase cost is substantial.

Reward Planning

If friendship is your priority, hand over the Ancient Book for Blue Moon Ice Cream. If you prefer to retain quest items, keep the book and review the later shop option.

After making the decision, return to Sheridan Help Plaza. This final visit is important because the remaining rewards are handled there rather than automatically appearing when the Ancient Book conversation ends.

Completion Checklist and Route Tips

Use this checklist before progressing toward Grand Dream City. The expiration condition is tied to entering the train in Chapter 10, so the safest approach is to finish the quest soon after it becomes available in Chapter 2.
