When you first get to the Resort Area in Sinnoh, you will be shown to a building by a person there. They will say that this house is now essentially yours to do with as you please. Inside, you'll just find a single table. However, there's much more going on there than what meets the eye

When inside, you will see a table, and on this table is a book that allows you to mail order loads of new items to kit the house out with. Unfortunately, these items are very very expensive. These items are as follows;

Thats not all though, as your house will be visited from time to time by a number of prominent main characters you encounter throughout the game including the gym leaders, your rivals, Cynthia, Professor Rowan and your mother. They will appear randomly after you have bought the item that activates them and they will then appear from time to time.
