Pokemon Colosseum - Strategy Guide (Page 02)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Pokemon Colosseum - Strategy Guide (Page 02).

As with the last three, you have infinite tries. 
This is very easy. Take out the Oddish and Dustox with ease. Now carefully
whittle down its HP with Shadow Rush. Don't use any moves your Shadow
Pokémon may have learned. Get its HP into the red. You should succeed
with your first Ball.
---------------------------

Bandana Guy Divel
SHADOW Pokémon #07/48: Quagsire
P$ = 480
Opponents: Psyduck     Lv29  Exp:  247
           Quagsire    Lv30  SHADOW Pokémon #07/48

Again, you have infinite tries.
This is about as hard as Flaaffy, but not too bad. If you have
Croconaw's Water attack, do NOT use it here unless you want
Quagsire's HP to operate in reverse. You have to get past
a Psyduck, but it's no trouble. Use Umbreon's Bite to weaken
it, then throw Great Balls until you Snag. If it resists,
very carefully get its HP lower, then try again. This is a good
Pokémon for Snagging Electric-types with, because it absorbs water
and nullifies electricity.
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
Roller Boy Lon
SHADOW Pokémon #08/48: Slugma
P$ = 168
Opponents: Swablu      Lv27  Exp:  213
           Azurill     Lv27  Exp:   63
           Igglybuff   Lv26  Exp:   78
           Slugma      Lv30  SHADOW Pokémon #08/48

Guess what? You have infinite tries!
Slugma is probably the easiest of the six Pyrite Pokémon. As with
Flaaffy, watch for contact attacks, or your Pokémon may get Burned.
You can actually turn this to your advantage if you use physical
attacks or Shadow Rush. As with all Shadow Pokémon, make sure its HP
is low before Snagging. If you Snagged Bayleef, don't use it here.
Slugma has Flamethrower, a Fire attack with 95 Power, over 140 with
STAB. Such an attack seriously pwns it. We're talking OHKO. Skiploom,
too.
---------------------------

At this point, Makuhita, and maybe Croconaw, should have nothing left
in their shadow gauges. Does this mean they're purified? About 99% of
the way. There's nothing you can do with them now, so use your other
Shadow Pokémon in battle, so they can start rehab. After six Snags,
you are likely running out of Great Balls. Save and exit town, then go
back to the Outskirt Stand and buy about 7 to 10 more Great Balls.
If you talk to Willie outside, he'll battle you again.

------Trainer Battle!------
Rider Willie
P$ = 300
Opponents: Zigzagoon   Lv29  Exp:  186
           Linoone     Lv30  Exp:  411

With the number of Pokémon you have, this is an easy fight. Linoone is
very fast and has a couple of strong attacks, so switch out or use
Super Potions as necessary. It's good experience for your Pokémon!
---------------------------
Now would also be a convenient time to visit the Pre Gym and update your
P*DA. Though you've got six Pokémon, don't battle Justy yet, he'll still
slaughter you. Now go back to Pyrite Town and save.

Head for Pyrite Colosseum in back. There is already a tournament going on
there as well, so you can't enter yet :-(  Anyway, talk to the rogue on
the left and he tells you that another rogue, Cail, has been seen with
a weird Pokémon. He is the guy in green by the entrance to the town.
Guess what? You're going to see his "weird" Pokémon in a battle!

------Trainer Battle!------
Rogue Cail
SHADOW Pokémon #09/48: Furret
P$ = 168
Opponents: Ralts       Lv29  Exp:  217
           Seedot      Lv29  Exp:  229
           Machop      Lv29  Exp:  273
           Furret      Lv33  SHADOW Pokémon #09/48

Oooo... Level 33 Pokémon... I'm quaking in my boots...
The rest of his team is tough, expecially Machop. He's fond of using
Karate Chop, which is a powerful move that Critical Hits often.

No more infinite tries, but if you come back after you beat Miror B.,
he'll fight you as often as you'd like, so you don't have to Snag
Furret this time, but it helps. You've got to get through a fairly
tough team, including a Machop at Lv29. It's tough to encourage
Furret to use anything but Shadow Rush, so be very careful in
taking down its HP. Put it to sleep with Noctowl's Hypnosis.
---------------------------

After this battle, you will see a short FMV involving Nascour and
Miror B. Now, make sure you have lots of Great Balls and Super Potions.
Save, and head for the Mayor's house. It has a white "C" on it, and it's
on the left.

Look for a bookshelf on the left side. Stand on the right side of the
bookshelf, next to the wall, then press the A button. You will flip
a hidden switch and the bookcase will move to the left, revealing a
hidden door. Head inside and talk to everyone. After you exit, there
will be an FMV involving Duking.

Exit and head for the windmill, to the left of the bridge to the
Colosseum. Talk to everyone inside there, and another FMV begins.
The windmill's Gear has been stolen, and you have to retreive it.
Head for the Realgam Construction Lot, and look in the upper-right
corner for the Gear. Take it back to the windmill and the Colosseum
opens up for business. But first, check the deck at the jail for a
Jail Key, and open all the cells. One of the cells has a TM46 inside.
TM46 teaches the following move to a Pokémon.
Thief          POWER/ 40  HIT %/100  TYPE/Dark     SPCL/Steals enemy's item
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Explanation of TMs

A TM, short for Technical Machine, is a device that teaches a move to
a Pokémon. It can only be used one time, so make your decision carefully.
Not all Pokémon are compatible with all TMs. For instance, Croconaw can't
use Hyper Beam until it evolves, so you can't use TM15 on it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Save and head to the Colosseum, and enter the tournament. Use this
opportunity to purify your Shadow Pokémon, for Espeon and Umbreon
can run through this tournament with little trouble.

---------Round One--------
Hunter Hoks
Opponents: Barboach    Lv30  Exp:  298
           Sandshrew   Lv31  Exp:  307

Quagsire and Flaaffy pwn here.

Chaser Tisler
Opponents: Natu        Lv30  Exp:  234
           Meditite    Lv30  Exp:  292

Use Misdreavus here, especially if it knows Shadow Ball.

           Cacnea      Lv31  Exp:  321
           Vulpix      Lv32  Exp:  216

Vilch's Electrike is a little tricky. If you have non-contact attacks,
like Quagsire's Surf, use it here. If not, be wary of paralyzation from
Static.
---------------------------

-----------Final-----------
Bodybuilder Mirez
Opponents: Bagon       Lv32  Exp:  304
           Goldeen     Lv32  Exp:  379
           Magnemite   Lv31  Exp:  295
           Delibird    Lv34  Exp:  666

You get serious experience points from this battle. Bagon is a
Dragon-type, meaning it resists most Special attacks; hence, use
physical attacks. Magnemite and Delibird go down to Fire attacks,
and Goldeen to electricity, but when facing Delibird, be careful.
It has Present, which is a hit-or-miss attack that can have a
Power of 40, 80, or 120, or it will heal you by 80 HP.
---------------------------

You win a cash prize of P$ 4,848 for winning this tournament. Now
save your game and exit the Colosseum. A long FMV sequence begins.

Spoiler Alert! Spoiler Alert! Spoiler Alert! Spoiler Alert! 
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
======================================================================
The FMV sequence shows several Cipher Peons escorting Josh and
Terra to Pyrite Building. They are congratulating you on your win
and are about to present you with a Shadow Pokémon, when one of them
realizes it's the same Josh that is on Cipher's blacklist.
======================================================================
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

After the FMV you end up in Pyrite Building, and you face a Trainer.
------Trainer Battle!------
Cipher Peon Nore
SHADOW Pokémon #10/48: Yanma
P$ = 1,280
Opponents: Pineco      Lv32  Exp:  205
           Surskit     Lv32  Exp:  216
           Nincada     Lv31  Exp:  214
           Yanma       Lv33  SHADOW Pokémon #10/48

You'll run through Nore's bugs with fire attacks. Now to Yanma...

I find it very difficult to make this Snag right now. It was the first
Snag I missed. Don't worry, you can find Nore in the Snagem Hideout
after you beat the game, and he'll fight you until you Snag his Yanma.
Yanma is hard to Snag because of its Speed Boost ability and its tendency
to use Shadow Rush every turn. Use the same strategy as usual, but if you
miss it, come to Snagem Hideout with Ultra Balls and you'll be able to
Snag it much more easily.
---------------------------

After the battle, Duking races in and an FMV begins involving the Shadow
Pokémon scandal.

e. The Miror Man                                               [S05-05MIR]

The Pyrite Building is full of trainers waiting for fights. First, grab
the Ein File "H" off the desk. The file is a report on Hyper Mode.

Before you can reach the revitalizing device and the PC, you have to go
through two Trainers.
------Trainer Battle!------
Chaser Kai
P$ = 640
Opponents: Phanpy      Lv31  Exp:  411
           Trapinch    Lv32  Exp:  249

They're both Ground-types, so Surf pwns. Easy money.
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
Roller Boy Pike
P$ = 204
Opponents: Taillow     Lv33  Exp:  208
           Hoothoot    Lv34  Exp:  211

They're both very weak, so you can use just about any attack you want.
---------------------------

Now you reach the revitalizing device (fully heals your party) and the
save point, so SAVE!

Head up to the 2F of the building. More Trainers!
------Trainer Battle!------
Bandana Guy Geats
P$ = 512
Opponents: Larvitar    Lv31  Exp:  208
           Hoothoot    Lv32  Exp:  315
           Carvanha    Lv32  Exp:  301

Carvanha (I have so much trouble spelling its name for some odd reason)
is the only wild card in this roster. The rest will go down with Surf,
especially Larvitar, who has a 4x weakness to it.
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
Hunter Geare
P$ = 528
Opponents: Remoraid    Lv33  Exp:  274
           Magnemite   Lv32  Exp:  304

No trouble at all. Magnemite has high Defense, so go nuts with the
Special.
---------------------------

You now reach a junction. You can head left, or through a door straight
ahead. The door has a trainer, but a chest as well. Take the door.
------Trainer Battle!------
Bandana Guy Loba
P$ = 528
Opponents: Wingull     Lv32  Exp:  210
           Wooper      Lv33  Exp:  183

Physical attacks and Shadow Rush work swell here.
---------------------------

There is a chest to his left that contains 5 Great Balls.
At this point, your team is probably fatigued from the battles.
Head back down to the 1F, heal, and save. Now resume your climb
and take the other way at the junction.

------Trainer Battle!------
Bodybuilder Akmen
P$ = 744
Opponents: Electrike   Lv31  Exp:?,???
           Voltorb     Lv31  Exp:  342

Quagsire pwns here because of Surf and immunity to electricity.
---------------------------

Head up to the 3F for...more Trainers. Think about the glass being
half full over half empty. You get experience points and cash! Anytime
your team gets weak, head down to 1F and heal. Save while you're there.

------Trainer Battle!------
Rider Raleen
P$ = 320
Opponents: Doduo       Lv32  Exp:  328
           Ledyba      Lv32  Exp:  184
           Swablu      Lv31  Exp:  244

All of Raleen's Pokémon fly, so use Flaaffy and turn up the juice!
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
Hunter Tura
P$ = 512
Opponents: Spheal      Lv31  Exp:  249
           Snorunt     Lv32  Exp:  253

You may want to attack with fire, but Spheal has a water technique
that'll pwn Slugma. If not, use conventional attacks. Spheal's HP
is kind of high, so be aware of that.
---------------------------

You will now see two doors. The left one leads to a chest containing
a Revive. You will need this item later! Anyways, back to the Trainer
battles... 

------Trainer Battle!------
Hunter Toti
P$ = 512
Opponents: Horsea      Lv31  Exp:  274
           Oddish      Lv32  Exp:  267
           Sandshrew   Lv32  Exp:  318

Conventional attacks are all you need. Your Shadow Pokémon's shadow
gauges should be close to empty, if not already there. Swap your
purified Pokémon with Shadow ones at the PC on 1F.
---------------------------

One more trainer on this floor and you should save and change Pokémon.

------Trainer Battle!------
Bodybuilder Elidi
P$ = 792
Opponents: Cacnea      Lv32  Exp:  331
           Tentacool   Lv33  Exp:  370

This is a fairly easy battle. If you still have Espeon, good for you.
Confusion your way to victory. Return works well on Cacnea.
---------------------------

After healing and saving, you take the stairs to the 4F, which puts
you outside the building. A trainer is blocking the entrance to
Pyrite Cave, but he won't battle you yet. Enter the door and an FMV
sequence begins involving Miror B.'s goons. You will have to
fight both trainers inside, and they each carry a Shadow Pokémon that
is tough to Snag.

------Trainer Battle!------
Miror B. Peon Reath
SHADOW Pokémon #11/48: Remoraid
P$ = 660
Opponents: Spinarak    Lv33  Exp:  126
           Luvdisc     Lv32  Exp:  376
           Remoraid    Lv20  SHADOW Pokémon #11/48

Spinarak and Luvdisc aren't too tough to take down. Take them out
fast. Now for the Shadow Pokémon...

This is a very tough Snag because it is terribly easy to KO Remoraid
by accident. One of your Pokémon should know Quick Attack, perhaps
Furret. One Quick Attack should take Remoraid down to the red. You
should be able to Snag it with one Ball because of its low level.
Unfortunately, it'll KO itself if it Shadow Rushes after a Quick Attack.
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
Miror B. Peon Ferma
SHADOW Pokémon #12/48: Mantine
P$ = 660
Opponents: Furret      Lv31  Exp:  384
           Aipom       Lv32  Exp:  321
           Yanma       Lv33  Exp:  519
           Mantine     Lv33  SHADOW Pokémon #12/48

Furret's physical power can take weaker Pokémon out in a hurry. Be very
careful. For fun, fight back with your own Furret. Now, for Mantine...

Mantine is a very tough Pokémon to Snag simply because they are hard
to capture, perhaps due to size/weight. Like Quagsire, Mantine has the
Water Absorb ability, so no Surfing allowed. I don't know if you have
any second chances with it, so make it count. I got lucky because it
was about to Shadow Rush itself to death. It had a sliver of HP left
and I Snagged it at the last possible moment. Use Bite carefully to
whittle down its HP. Putting it to sleep can't hurt, either.
---------------------------

The trainers run away and leave an Ein File "S" for you. This one's about
Shadow Pokémon. Now go talk to Silva and an FMV begins involving Josh,
Terra, Silva, and Miror B. Take the stairs down to the 1F, picking up
three Hyper Potions in a chest along the way. Go through the one-way
door, and head back to the save point. Heal and save, especially if you
Snagged Remoraid and/or Mantine. Leave Remoraid in the PC for now, because
it's far too weak to battle.

Head back up to the 4F and talk to the trainer in front of the cave. He
will battle.

------Trainer Battle!------
Hunter Doken
SHADOW Pokémon #13/48: Qwilfish
P$ = 660
Opponents: Goldeen     Lv33  Exp:  391
           Linoone     Lv33  Exp:  451
           Qwilfish    Lv33  SHADOW Pokémon #13/48

As you know from your second battle with Willie, Linoone's speed
can give you problems. Shock Goldeen.

This is a tough Snag despite its size. I saved this one for after
I finished the game, when I had Ultra Balls and Net Balls, and it
still wasn't easy. Getting its HP down is no problem, but it has a
tendency to Shadow Rush often, and there's little you can do to
convince it otherwise. Come back later with Net Balls. If you want
to try to Snag it now, I wish you plenty of good luck. Even if
you put it to sleep, it still puts up a lot of resistance.
---------------------------

Now enter Pyrite Cave. Because we have entered a new dungeon, the floor
count resets. This means you enter on the 1F. Early on, you will see
a trainer near a staircase. You do not have to fight her if you don't
want to, and she has no Shadow Pokémon.
------Trainer Battle!------
**OPTIONAL**
Street Performer Simes
P$ = 512
Opponents: Anorith     Lv32  Exp:  408
           Lotad       Lv32  Exp:  253

Yes, it's Lotad. Get used to seeing them, because you'll see him and
Lombre, his evolved form, quite a bit in this cave. It's only weak to
Flying and Poison attacks. Noctowl's Attack sucks, and Qwilfish is the
only Pokémon you could have at this point with a Poison-type attack.
Anorith falls to fire.
---------------------------

Search the far right end of the area for a chest containing three Ethers,
and the top of the area north of the stairs for a chest containing two
valuable Hyper Potions. Save them for later.

Take the stairs down to the B1, where you find another trainer you can
sneak by if you're looking to avoid fights.
------Trainer Battle!------
**OPTIONAL**
Chaser Maiz
P$ = 640
Opponents: Koffing     Lv32  Exp:  390
           Ralts       Lv31  Exp:  232
           Shroomish   Lv32  Exp:  222

Nothing special here. Just thrash them for the experience, cash, and the
chance to bring your Pokémon's shadow gauges down.
---------------------------

I'd head back and save/heal about now. The trip back isn't that far.
And this next fight you can't avoid. You have a choice between stairs to
the 1F and a battle. Take the battle and head north. This guy has a Shadow
Pokémon. Before pressing on, make sure you have plenty of Great Balls, at
least a dozen.

------Trainer Battle!------
Rider Twan
SHADOW Pokémon #14/48: Meditite
P$ = 330
Opponents: Numel       Lv32  Exp:  301
           Bagon       Lv33  Exp:  313
           Meditite    Lv33  SHADOW Pokémon #14/48

Again, Bagon has resistance to most Special attacks. Attack it
physically (Shadow Rush...), and water pwns Numel. Now for the
Shadow Meditite...

This is a lot easier than the last two, and there's no real excuse
for not Snagging it right now. Umbreon's Bite is a good idea, as is
putting it to sleep so it can't KO itself from Shadow Rush. This is
quite easy.
---------------------------

To the right is a trainer guarding an item. You will be able to bypass
the trainer. The item is a single Full Heal.

------Trainer Battle!------
**OPTIONAL**
Hunter Valen
P$ = 528
Opponents: Whismur     Lv33  Exp:  240
           Lotad       Lv32  Exp:  253
           Slakoth     Lv32  Exp:  283

This is standard. You can take them down easily. Slakoth is powerful, but
can only act every other turn. Purify those Shadow Pokémon!
---------------------------

Now take the north stairs down to the B2, and head left. There'a another
trainer there.

------Trainer Battle!------
Rider Sosh
SHADOW Pokémon #15/48: Dunsparce
P$ = 340
Opponents: Mareep      Lv34  Exp:  214
           Cacnea      Lv34  Exp:  352
           Dunsparce   Lv33  SHADOW Pokémon #15/48

Flaaffy evolves from Mareep, so you know what that means? No contact
attacks on it or Zzzzt! Static!

First, put it to sleep with Noctowl, then have Umbreon Bite or Noctowl
Shadow Rush. This is also very easy.
---------------------------

After the battle, head left and there is a revitalizing device and a
PC. Praise God, it's a save and recovery point. You know what? Save
and heal. You've got to be insane if you don't save and heal here.
You will be using this area as a base for the rest of the dungeon.

Now head back to the staircase you came from, the one on the right. Take
the staircase you skipped up to 1F. Two Trainers up there guard a good
item, but you have to fight first!
------Trainer Battle!------
Chaser Rehan
P$ = 640
Opponents: Geodude     Lv32  Exp:  294
           Lotad       Lv31  Exp:  244
           Slakoth     Lv31  Exp:  274?
           Snorunt     Lv32  Exp:  253

Four Pokémon to take down, so it will be a longer-than-usual fight.
It's not hard, just use Quagsire, but don't use Surf on Lotad as it has a
4x resistance to water.
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
**OPTIONAL**
Bandana Guy Noxy
P$ = 528
Opponents: Lotad       Lv32  Exp:  253
           Lotad       Lv33  Exp:  261
           Lotad       Lv33  Exp:  261
           Lotad       Lv33  Exp:  261

I told you you'd see lots of them in here! Just attack them with physical
attacks and it's no trouble.
---------------------------

Grab the three ULTRA BALLS(!!) from the chest, then head back to the save
point. Save and take the stairs by the save point. We're almost through!
Save the Ultra Balls for later.

In this section of the B1, there are three Trainers. You can sneak by
all of them, but one has a Shadow Pokémon you should Snag.
------Trainer Battle!------
**OPTIONAL**
Roller Boy Evat
P$ = 198
Opponents: Lotad       Lv32  Exp:  253
           Lombre      Lv33  Exp:  498

See? Told you you'd see Lombre eventually. Just physically attack them both.
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
**OPTIONAL**
Rider Derid
P$ = 330
Opponents: Pineco      Lv30  Exp:  192
           Shuppet     Lv33  Exp:  342
           Koffing     Lv30  Exp:  366

Shuppet falls to Umbreon's Bite, Pineco to fire, and Koffing to Confusion or
physical attacks.
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
Hunter Zalo
SHADOW Pokémon #16/48: Swablu
P$ = 512
Opponents: Lotad       Lv31  Exp:  244
           Beldum      Lv32  Exp:  352
           Lombre      Lv32  Exp:  483
           Swablu      Lv33  SHADOW Pokémon #16/48

Beldum falls to fire. Lotad and Lombre you've seen enough to know what to
do.

If you have Espeon about Lv32, two Confusions should take it into the red.
If not, two or three of Umbreon's Bites should do the trick. Either way,
put it to sleep and Snag it. Not too hard.
---------------------------

There are two sets of stairs that lead to the B2, one on each side of the
trainer you just beat. Take the stairs on the right. There are three
of trainers down here. One you have to fight, the others you don't.
------Trainer Battle!------
**OPTIONAL**
Chaser Mela
P$ = 660
Opponents: Natu        Lv33  Exp:  258
           Tentacool   Lv32  Exp:  310
           Teddiursa   Lv32  Exp:  424

This will be a piece of cake. Natu falls to Bite. Take the other two out
as normal.
---------------------------
------Trainer Battle!------
**OPTIONAL**
Cipher Peon Sema

As a whole, the Cipher Peons aren't very hard trainers to beat, but
they give out tremendous amounts of cash. Battle them for their wealth!

This will be a piece of cake. Natu falls to Bite. Take the other two out
as normal.
---------------------------

Walk all the way to the left and you find four chests. They contain a
Protein, an Iron, a Carbos, and a Zinc. You can sell these for some
serious cash. Do so when you leave this dungeon. Now go back to the
save point, heal, and SAVE. Head back to the section where you (hopefully)
Snagged Swablu. This time, take the stairs on the left. Take a deep
breath, and prepare for a big battle.

Take the stairs down and head north, through the passage. You emerge
in a room with four Ludicolo and Miror B. dancing. Walk up to Miror B.
and an FMV begins. You will end up in the game's first real boss battle.

Cipher Admin Miror B.
SHADOW Pokémon #17/48: Sudowoodo
P$ = 3,500
Opponents: Ludicolo    Lv28  Exp:  543
           Ludicolo    Lv29  Exp:  561
           Ludicolo    Lv30  Exp:  580
           Ludicolo    Lv31  Exp:  600
           Sudowoodo   Lv35  SHADOW Pokémon #17/48

I don't know why this guy has to be so weird and annoying and irritating
and obnoxious and...OK, I'll shut up about that. With the exception of
Sudowoodo, all of his Pokémon are annoyers. Basically, all four of his
Ludicolo have the same moveset. That moveset is Rain Dance, Leech Seed,
Mega Drain/Absorb, and an attack filler. Miror B.'s entire strategy
revolves around Rain Dance. Because of Rain Dish, his Ludicolo will gain
HP every turn. Combined with Leech Seed, they can recover HP faster than
you can take it away. Use your Hyper Potions here. Once you take down
three of his Ludicolo (a lot easier typed than done), his Shadow
Sudowoodo appears.

Once you get to Sudowoodo, put it to sleep using Noctowl, but don't switch
it back out; you'll encourage Sudowoodo to use Rock Slide instead of Shadow
Rush. If you KO it, you will have a second chance to face him in Realgam
Tower, and infinitely many more chances in Deep Colosseum. Make sure
Sudowoodo's HP is in the red, then start throwing Great Balls. Not Ultra
Balls yet. You might catch it with the Great Balls. If it's close but not
caught, try one of your three Ultra Balls. If it isn't caught, try another
Ultra Ball. You should catch it before your three Ultra Balls are used up.

After you win the battle, Miror B. and his four Ludicolo will run away,
leaving an Ein File "P" behind. It is a report on purifying Pokémon.
Take the TM49 from the chest that's now there. TM49 contains this move:

Snatch         POWER/---  HIT %/100  TYPE/Dark     SPCL/Steals stat&HP ups

Go into the back room and take the Macho Brace from the chest. It's a
useful tool for EV training if you battle competitively. Now press the
A button in front of Plusle and an FMV begins. You know what that means?

Spoiler Alert! Spoiler Alert! Spoiler Alert! Spoiler Alert! 
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
======================================================================
The FMV sequence involves Duking, Silva, Terra, Josh, Plusle, and
much of the family of the mayor. They congratulate you on chasing
Miror B. out of town, but they also tell you that this is not the
end of the road. Miror B. is only one of the Admins behind the
creation of Shadow Pokémon. He also refers you to Agate Village,
where it is said that Celebi lives. Unfortunately, you will not
be able to catch it. This is also where Terra's grandparents live.
Before you leave, Duking will ask for your P*DA number. You will
give it to him at this time.
======================================================================
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

At the end of the FMV, Plusle joins your party. Since it's only Lv13,
it would be a splendid idea to put it in the computer and keep it
there. Now head for Fateen, the fortune-teller, in front of her
shop, which is to the left as you enter town. A short FMV begins,
and she gives you information about Agate Village and Shadow Pokémon.
Guess where we're headed?

f. Agate Village                                                 [S05-06AGV]

The lush greenery you see is a rarity in the Orre region. Head for
the Pokémon Center first of all. Heal and save. Now head for the
house in the center of the village on the highest floor. Once you
enter the house, an FMV begins. It is interrupted by a civilian
rushing in the house, screaming Emergency! Apparently, there's trouble
in the Relic Forest. That's where you're going, after you do a little
business.

First, on the level under the Pokémon Mart, there is an opening
on the right wall on the far left side, directly under the Pokémon Mart.
You find two Ultra Balls and a Silk Scarf there. Behind Eagun's house,
there is a secret passage leading to the Exp. Share. Have Noctowl hold
that for now, so its levels continue to increase, since it is a weak
battler. Save the game again, then head for the Relic Forest, which is
down the path just to the left of the Pokémon Center. In the cave leading
to the forest, you will have to face three trainers.

------Trainer Battle!------
Cipher Peon Doven
P$ = 1,360
Opponents: Spheal      Lv33  Exp:  264
           Carvanha    Lv34  Exp:  319

Use electrical moves on them both. This isn't tough.

Opponents: Shroomish   Lv34  Exp:  235
           Cacnea      Lv34  Exp:  332

Use fire moves to take them out. Not hard.

Opponents: Baltoy      Lv35  Exp:  217
           Ralts       Lv35  Exp:  262
           Kirlia      Lv35  Exp:  525

They're all weak to Shadow Ball or Bite, but Kirlia is strong.
Its attacks can do a lot of damage, probably more than you're
used to.
---------------------------

Head out, SAVE, then enter the forest. Approach the Relic Stone and
an FMV involving Eagun and a Cipher Peon named Skrub begins. They
have a battle.
