I'm still at six badges, but I completed a lot of the side areas that require Surf, Strength, and such. I still don't know how to get to the other side of the damaged building near the beginning of the game (where the Plasma grunts were attacking a Munna), but I'm sure that's for later. I also don't know how to descend the desert tower (not the Tower of Heaven), but because I looked at spoilers by accident (only a little one), I know it's after the seventh gym. Also, it seems like a lot of people get stuck at that point, because many of the results (and a few fans' questions) were about getting past *something* after the tower. I'm currently saved in front of a legendary Pokémon within a cave whose name I'm too lazy to look at right now. I'm probably going to record a video of it.
As for the Global Link, I believe I was able to connect to it very early on, before they had to do maintenance.
