1. Introduction
###############################################################################
Thank you for choosing to read my FAQ/Walkthrough for Pokemon XD: Gale of
Darkness. This FAQ may be in its early stages, but eventually it will contain
everything you need (and more!) to fully complete the game. After seeing on
the GameFAQs message boards that people were asking a lot of questions about
this game, I decided to write this FAQ to answer them.
Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness takes place five years after the first GameCube
Pokemon game, Pokemon Colosseum. An ex-member of Team Snagem and a girl who
had a special ability to see Shadow Pokemon both managed to thwart the evil
Cipher organisation's plans to take over the world. Cipher supposedly
disbanded shortly afterwards, but now it seems they're back. It's now up to
you to defeat Cipher once again and restore peace to the Orre Region.

4. Story Mode Walkthrough
###############################################################################
After selecting "New Game", the Name Screen will appear. After you've named
the Main Character, you'll start the game inside the Pokemon HQ. However, just
before that, the S.S. Libra is seen sailing across the ocean. Suddenly,
members of the notorious Cipher organisation arrive on the scene in their
helicopters. Shadow Lugia, a mysterious Shadow Pokemon, lifts the S.S. Libra
into the sky and makes its escape, with the Cipher members following behind.
The confused Captain and his crew are left stranded in the ocean.
===============================================================================
A. Pokemon HQ
===============================================================================
When you gain control of the Main Character, you will be in a battle with Sim
Trainer Jadlet. Although the Metagross has a high ATK, a couple of Earthquakes
from your Salamence should be able to defeat it, since Metagross is weak to
Ground-Type attacks. In addition, Salamence has faster Speed than Metagross,
so you'll probably end this battle after 2 turns.
After the Battle Sim finishes, you'll appear in the Pokemon HQ building. While
you may have thought you had a Lvl 50 Salamence in your Party, you actually
have a Lvl 10 Eevee. If you want to practice battling, Battle Sims can help to
master the basics.
You can make your way around the Pokemon Lab and talk with the scientists.
They will tell you information, which may be helpful to you. Outside the
building, you'll notice that there are two entrances to the left and right.
The former leads to your room, while the latter takes you to the Purify
Chamber, which will be important for Purifying your Shadow Pokemon later on in
the game.
If you take the elevator to the second floor and enter Professor Krane's
office, Lily (your mother) will ask you to find Jovi (your sister), as she has
been gone for a while. Professor Krane asks you to take the P*DA he left in
your room. Go down the elevator and head through the entrance to the left.
Enter your room and grab the P*DA on the desk. While you're there, you can
also take the 3 Potions in the chest nearby.
If you try to leave the room, you'll recieve an e-mail from Professor Krane.
He informs you that he last saw Jovi playing hide-and-seek with Adan, so it
probably would be a good idea to speak with him. Go to the second floor and
enter the room south of the Lounge. (The Lounge is the room where the
television, Psyduck and Quagsire are.) Adan is hiding under the table.
Have a look at Professor Krane's e-mail. Adan emerges from his hiding place
and suggests that you travel to Dr. Kaminko's House. Jovi's friend, Chobin,
lives there, so she might have gone there to visit him. Adan says that it's
a big, weird house southeast of the Pokemon HQ. Since the location is now
marked on the World Map, you can make your way there and collect Jovi.
===============================================================================
B. Dr. Kaminko's House
===============================================================================
As you head for Dr. Kaminko's House, Kaminko Aide Chobin will battle you.
He thinks that you're a burglar, so you must defeat him to prove otherwise.
Since Chobin's Sunkern is at Lvl 5, you will have an advantage. Use your
Eevee's Tackle attack to defeat it after a few turns.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
KAMINKO AIDE CHOBIN
Sunkern, Lvl 5

After the battle, Chobin realises that you're Jovi's brother, and admits that
Jovi is inside the house. Once Chobin shows you a few of Dr. Kaminko's weird
inventions, you can go through the door to your left to find Jovi. Your sister
temporaily joins your party, so you can now go back to the Pokemon HQ.
Outside the Pokemon HQ, you can challenge Super Trainer Aferd to practice your
battling skills. After defeating him, go inside the building and head
upstairs. You'll notice that Professor Krane isn't in his office. Speak with
the old man, and he'll mention that the Professor went downstairs a while ago.
Take the elevator downstairs, and you'll find him in the room opposite the
Purify Chamber.
It seems the scientists have finished completing their latest invention, the
Snag Machine. Shadow Pokemon are victims of criminals who use them for
misdeeds. The most effective means of taking such Pokemon from criminals is
to use the Snag Machine developed by Cipher five years ago. It is an
unforgiveable act among Trainers to steal another Trainer's Pokemon, but there
is no other way to save the Shadow Pokemon. The Aura Reader's development made
it possible to create a workable new Snag Machine. The Aura Reader can be made
to sound a warning and prevent the Snag Machine from working if a regular,
non-Shadow Pokemon is targeted.
Unfortunately, just as you put the Snag Machine on your arm, Professor Krane is
kidnapped by a group of Cipher Peons. Exit the Pokemon HQ, and you'll see the
group preparing to make their getaway. As you attempt to stop them, Spy Naps
battles you. When he sends out his Shadow Teddiursa, simply throw a Poke Ball
to Snag it. However, in later battles, you'll have to weaken a Shadow Pokemon
if you want to Snag it.

After the battle, the Cipher Peons escape with Professor Krane. Even without
the Professor's assistance, Lily makes the decision to continue working on
completing the Purify Chamber. She has ordered a Machine Part for the Purify
Chamber from the Parts Shop in Gateon Port.
===============================================================================
C. Gateon Port
===============================================================================
As you enter Gateon Port, Jovi runs past you and accidentally bumps into Thug
Zook. Zook complains that Jovi has messed up his hair, and threatens to set
his Shadow Zangoose on her. Fortunately, Zook is interupted by Mr. Verich and
his bodyguards. One of the bodyguards, Mystery Man Ardos, orders his
Alakazam to attack Zook's Zangoose, defeating it instantly.
When Mr. Verich and his bodyguards leave the scene, head left to reach the
Parts Shop. On your way there, you'll meet Emili (Jovi's friend) and her
mother Acri. Inside the Parts Shop, you'll notice that the shopkeeper isn't
there.
If you talk to the person nearby, he'll offer to give you one of five
Evolution Items, because you have a rare Eevee, which can evolve into four
different forms. A Water Stone evolves Eevee into a Vaporeon, Thunderstone
Jolteon, Fire Stone Flareon, Moon Shard Umbreon, and Sun Shard Espeon. While
the Stones can evolve Eevee right away, you must wait until your Eevee levels
up before it can evolve into either Umbreon or Espeon.
In my opinion, Espeon is the best Eevee evolution, as it can learn powerful
Psychic-Type and Dark-Type attacks. Vaporeon, Jolteon and Flareon can learn
good attacks. Umbreon, however, isn't as good as the latter four, since its
Attack is low, but it does have excellent Defence. If you want to breeze
through the game, I suggest choosing Espeon, as most Pokemon aren't resistant
to its attacks.

===============================================================================
The Hexagon Brothers are guarding the entrance to the Cipher Lab, so you must
defeat one of them before you can enter the building. Although you can just
defeat one Hexagon Brother, I advice battling all six of them to help level up
your Pokemon. Also, you can Snag some good Shadow Pokemon, such as Houndour
and Mareep, that will be a good addition to your party.

Once you've defeated the Hexagon Brothers, go through the western entrance.
Use the Restore Machine to heal your Pokemon before heading for the elevator.
Whenever your Pokemon are low on health, you can return here to heal them, so
you don't have to spend money on Super Potions if you don't have enough cash.
Head for the elevator, and you'll be ambushed by Cipher Peon Corla. She
challenges you to a battle, so defeat her to continue onward.

After coming out of the elevator, take the eastern route. Another Cipher Peon
named Javion ambushes you. Since his Pokemon are both Flying-Types, you can
use Mareep's Thundershock attack to inflict Super Effective hits against them.
Don't use Thunder Wave though, as Taillow's Guts Ability increases its ATK if
its paralyzed, poisoned or burned.

Continue going right to find an elevator. Use it to be dropped off on the
third floor. Just as you're exiting the elevator, Cipher R&D Mesak battles
you. Although Mesak has Bug and Grass-Type Pokemon in his party, they are also
Rock-Types, so Fire-Type attacks won't do much damage to them. Stick to using
Psychic-Type moves to have an advantage.

After the battle, grab the Revive and go downstairs to the second floor. When
you go south, you'll hear Cipher Admin Lovrina trying to convince Professor
Krane to help Cipher with their Shadow Pokemon plan. The Professor refuses
to co-operate, but Lovrina believes that he will in time and orders her
brother, Cipher Peon Naps, to keep an eye on him, while she puts the finishing
touches to XD001.
When you regain control of the Main Character, continue going south to be
ambushed by Cipher Peon Solox. Ralts' Synchronize Ability copies its status
onto your Pokemon, and Voltorb's Static Ability can paralyze them if you direct
attack it.

Before you can use it, you must defeat Cipher Peon Digor first. Take the
elevator back down and go left to find Cipher Peon Crink.

Now take the western pathway to evesdrop on a conversation between two
scientists about the mysterious Shadow Pokemon known as XD001. This is the
same Pokemon that Cipher Admin Lovrina was referring to earlier. Before you
can learn any more information, the scientists notice you. Battle them. You
should have no problems defeating them. Just watch out for Wynaut's Counter
and Mirror Coat attacks, as they can reflect an attack back at your Pokemon.
You get around them by using Ghost-Type and Dark-Type attacks respectively.

appears and insists that Professor Krane gets back to work. It's time you put
Lovrina in her place.

Strategy:
---------
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Once you defeat Lovrina, she takes the elevator and escapes. However, while
she was hurrying, she dropped a Data ROM. Pick it up. It contains information
about Cipher's Shadow Pokemon plan.
As you leave the Cipher Lab, you'll see the Hexagon Brothers outside. You can
battle them again to gain EXP. Points and Snag any Shadow Pokemon you failed
to capture from them.
When you return to the Pokemon HQ, you'll learn that the Purify Chamber has
finally been completed. Professor Krane asks you to test out the machine,
so walk onto it to be sent to the Purify Chamber screen. Now exit the screen.
From this point in the game, you can access the Purify Chamber in the Pokemon
HQ and at any PC Station. However, in order to Purify a Shadow Pokemon, you
must go to the Pokemon HQ.
Once captured, Shadow Pokemon must have their hearts reopened in a process
called Purification so that they may return to their normal state. The
best-known method of Purification is to have the Shadow Pokemon spend time with
a Trainer and allow their hearts to gradually reopen. The Purify Chamber is a
radical new concept that differs from the usual Purification method of having a
Pokemon with a Trainer constantly. It represents a new approach that places
Shadow Pokemon among regular Pokemon so that they become Purified naturally.
Lily asks you to check how Datan is doing in his office upstairs. He's
currently investigating the Data ROM, but he isn't in his office. He's
actually outside the Pokemon HQ. If you talk to him, he'll admit that the
contents of the Data ROM are heavily protected, so Professor Krane asks you to
deliver it to OBNS in Pyrite Town.

you arrive on the scene, so he battles you to get past.

With OBNS Headquarters liberated from Cipher, Nett reveals that he was able to

was behind the disappearance of the S.S. Libra. Also, it seems the
organisation is planning an attack on Phenac City. Marcia, an OBNS reporter,
has gone there to investigate why the town's communication systems are down.
Nett asks you to inform the Mayor of Phenac City about Cipher's coming attack.

O. Cipher Key Lair
===============================================================================
When you return to the Cipher Key Lair, Thug Zook will challenge you to a
rematch. He should be easier to defeat than before, since you'll have leveled
up your Pokemon in the Snagem Hideout.

After the battle, speak with the guards and admit that you were on TV. They
realise that you're the person causing all the trouble for Cipher.
Fortunately, Team Snagem arrives on the scene. Snagem Member Wakin uses his
Gloom's Sleep Powder attack to knock out the guards. Snagem Head Gonzap urges
you to continue onward, saying Team Snagem will step in when Cipher is
finally defeated. Now's your chance to enter the Cipher Key Lair.
As you enter the Cipher Key Lair, you'll notice some workers inside. They
won't battle you, so grab the 3 Super Potions and take the eastern route to
find Cipher Peon Grezle.
