Before you can fight Blueberry Academy Elite Four Member Amarys in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Indigo Disk DLC, you’ll have to complete an Elite Trial. Here’s how to complete the Flying Time challenge and defeat Amarys.
To progress through The Indigo Disk’s story, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players will need to challenge Blueberry Academy’s Elite Four.
One of the new Elite Four members is Amarys. This Steel-type specialist is located in the Canyon Biome and is ranked #4 for the entire Academy. She’s pretty strong, but before you can battle her, you’ll need to complete an Elite Trial.
Here’s how to complete the Flying Time challenge and defeat Amarys.
How to complete Elite Four Amarys’ Flying Time Trial
Amarys’ Elite Trial introduces players to the Flying Time Trial, one of The Indigo Disk’s new mini-games. In it, the player has to fly on Koraidon or Miraidon through a set course and make it to the finish line in a set amount of time.
This particular course is pretty simple. The game gives you 30 seconds to make it to the end, but flying through Magnemite rings gives you an extra 3 seconds.
Going through them gives you a helpful cushion if you fall behind, but given how straightforward this course is – and how many rings there are – you’ll likely complete the Trial with more time than you started with.
After defeating Amarys, you’ll be able to complete Flying Time Trials whenever you want to earn rewards and unlock more challenging Trials.

As with all of Blueberry Academy’s trainers, Crispin uses some pretty high-level Pokemon, so come prepared.
Steel-type Pokemon are weak to Fire, Ground, and Fighting-type moves, so bring Pokemon that can take advantage of those vulnerabilities. Don’t rely solely on one of those, though, as many of Amarys’ Pokemon have secondary typings that counter those weaknesses.
It’s also good to bring a Ghost or Dark-type in to handle Reuniclus and Metagross’ Psychic typing (Psychic’s Bug weakness is neutralized by Metagross’ Steel-typing).
Additionally, Dugtrio has a Focus Sash meaning you won’t be able to take it down in a single hit. It also has the ability Tangling Hair, which lowers your Pokemon’s Speed if you use a move on it that makes contact.
Once defeated, Amarys will give you the TM for Hard Press.
