In this guide, I will showcase the solution to Medali’s Gym Puzzle, explain which secret menu options to choose, and help you complete the Gym Test with ease.
How to Order the Secret Menu Item in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

To start the gym test, players should head to the Treasure Eatery, the most famous restaurant in Medali.
Completing the gym test will require players to order a specific food combination from the maitre d’ near the entrance.
To find out the 4-part combination, all you need to do is collect clues from fighting trainers outside the restaurant. Your best ally for these fights is any Fighting-type Pokemon, such as Annihilape.
How to Get All Four Clues and Complete the Gym Test in Medali Gym
The first clue is given to the players inside the restaurant by the guy at the bar and it’s the seasoning you need to ask for. The answer here is Lemon.
The second clue is given by a kid next to the ice cream stand outside the restaurant. After defeating her in a battle, she’ll mention checking the ice cream stands and finding the odd one out.
At the ice cream stand, you’ll notice various ice cream flavors and Grilled Rice Balls, which is the answer to the riddle.
For the next clue, fight a student outside the gym near an amphitheater.
After defeating her, she’ll guide you to “a dark spot surrounded by stairs”, which is the gate next to the amphitheater. Interact with the gate and you’ll get the answer to this riddle “Fire Blast“.
For the last clue, locate an NPC standing next to two benches on the street. After defeating him, he’ll mention listening to “the blue bird Pokemon”.
Just nearby, there is a person with a blue bird at their head. Stand there and wait for the bird to say the answer to the last riddle “Meedyum” (which means Medium).
In short, the answers to the riddles in the Medali Gym Test are the following.
- Grilled Rice Balls
- Medium
- Extra Crispy – Fire Blast
- Lemon
With the Gym Test completed, you’re now ready to face Larry, the Normal-Type Gym Leader.
Larry has Normal-Type Pokemon at Levels 35-36. As long as you bring a Fighting-type Pokemon, you won’t have any issues.
Conclusion
To sum up, that’s everything you need to know regarding the solution for the Medali Gym Test secret menu item puzzle in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
If you want the easy way through, simply go to the Maitr D’ and give them the right answers without defeating any trainers or looking for clues.
