Which means this info is the same for every Pokemon game in the GBA and gamecube series including Pokemon XD. 5.1 - Pokemon Battle - The main concept of each Pokemon game is to collect Pokemon and to Battle other trainers. As you progress through the game you'll face many trainer battles. In Pokemon XD you'll face mostly double battles. To win a battle you pretty much has to make all of your opponent's Pokemon faint. This could be a lot easier if you understand the basics to Pokemon battle. You'll need to know the type advantages, their strong stats, and their movesets. Knowing all this is a key role into being a sucessful Pokemon Trainer. Since Pokemon XD is mostly double battles be sure to take into account of moves that attacks both opponents, everyone including your allies, or benefits your partner Pokemon. The more you fight the more experience your Pokemon will gain and soon they'll grow even stronger and maybe even evolve. Be sure to build a team with a variety of Pokemon types. Be sure to pay attention to your Pokemon stats as well and build your Pokemon well to ensure the best use of your stats ATTACK - Physical Attack Power. The higher it is the more damage you'll do with Physical Attacks. DEFENSE - Physical Attack Defense Power. The higher it is the less damage you'll take from Physical Attacks. SP. ATTACK - Special Attack Power. The higher it is the more damage you'll do with Special Attacks. SP. DEFENSE- Special Defense Power. The higher it is the less damage you'll take from Special Attacks. SPEED - Determines the turn order in battle. If your speed is higher than the opponent you'll have a good chance of attacking before them. 5.2 - Pokemon Combat Chart - Here is the basics on which type is effective on which and how basic damage is calculated. Defending Pokemon Type ___________________________________________________________________________ | | N | F | W | E | G | I | F | P | G | F | P | B | R | G | D | D | S | | | o | i | a | l | r | c | i | o | r | l | s | u | o | h | r | a | t | | | r | r | t | e | a | e | g | i | o | y | y | g | c | o | a | r | e | | | m | e | e | C | s | * | h | s | u | i | c | | k | s | g | k | e | | | a | * | r | t | s | | t | o | n | n | h | | | t | o | * | l | | | l | | * | r | * | | | n | d | g | c | | | | n | | | | | | | | * | | | | | | | * | | | | * | | | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Normal | | | | | | | | | | | | | - | = | | | - | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Fire* | | - | - | | + | + | | | | | | + | - | | - | | + | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Water* | | + | - | | - | | | | | | | | + | | - | | | Y|-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| o|Electr*| | | + | - | - | | | | = | + | | | | | - | | | u|-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| r|Grass* | | - | + | | - | | | - | + | - | | - | + | | - | | - | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| A|Ice* | | - | - | | + | - | | | + | + | | | | | + | | - | t|-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| t|Fight | + | | | | | + | | - | | - | - | - | + | = | | + | + | a|-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| c|Poison | | | | | + | | | - | - | | | | - | - | | | = | k|-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Ground | | + | | + | - | | | + | | = | | - | + | | | | + | T|-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| y|Flying | | | | - | + | | + | | | | | + | - | | | | - | p|-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| e|Psychc*| | | | | | | + | + | | | - | | | | | = | - | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Bug | | - | | | + | | - | - | | - | + | | | - | | + | - | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Rock | | + | | | | + | - | | - | + | | + | | | | | - | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Ghost | = | | | | | | | | | | + | | | + | | - | - | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Dragon*| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | + | | - | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Dark* | | | | | | | - | | | | + | | | | + | | - | |-------|-------------------------------------------------------------------| |Steel | | - | - | - | | + | | | | | | | + | | | | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * means the type is a special attack Looking at the chart above you can see that - You'll get x2 damage for a + attack - You'll get regular damage if nothing is stated - You'll get 1/2 damage for a - attack - You'll get x0 damage for a = attack Other things to conclude - You'll get x2 damage for a critial hit Also it will ignore all your pokemon's ATTACK and SPECIAL ATTACK drop and ignores the defending Pokemon's DEFENSE and SPECIAL DEFENSE increase - You'll get a 1.5 damage if the attack type is the same type as that of the Pokemon using it.

Shadow Pokemon are normal Pokemon that had been used for wrongful acts because Cipher found a way to shut the door to their hearts. Shadow Pokemon are different from normal pokemon with their own advantages and disadvantages. How do you know if a Pokemon is a Shadow Pokemon? Most of the time Shadow Pokemon are found while battle the people of Cipher but sometimes they appear elsewhere. When entering a battle you will be told if any of the Pokemon they're using is a Shadow Pokemon or not. If they are you are allowed to snag it during battle. Snagging is known as capturing a trainer's Pokemon but it's all good since you can only capture shadow ones. However you can only snag a shadow pokemon when you have the snag machine. So how do you snag it? If you have the snag machine you can throw a Pokeball (or other related items) to snag it. Most of the time you have to weaken the Pokemon first before you can securely Snag it. Have it to red health for the highest chance. Also affecting it with a status condition like Sleep or Poison increases your chance even further. If you accidently defeat the shadow pokemon don't worry, you'll get another chance later. Okay so I snagged it. What now? Once you snagged it you can pretty much train the pokemon as it were your own. Each Shadow Pokemon will start with two shadow attacks or more and will learn more as you open its heart more. However Shadow Pokemon has their advantages and disadvantages. What is the difference of Shadow Pokemon to a normal one? - They have shadow attacks which is Super Effective to all types of Pokemon. However it's not very effective on other Shadow types Shadow attacks tends to be faster than normal attacks. - You cannot use an item that would evolve or level up the Pokemon (Rare Candy/Elemental Stones) - You cannot change the order of their moves - You cannot delete any of their moves - You cannot change their nickname - They cannot particapate in VS. mode - You cannot trade it to any of the GBA Pokemon game. - They do don't gain EXP and can't level up - You cannot use a TMs on a shadow Pokemon - You cannot teach them moves using the move tutor - During battle they randomly go into reverse mode What is reverse mode? When a Pokemon uses a move during battle it might go into Reverse Mode. When it's in reverse mode the panel that indicates the Pokemon name and HP will turn Red. Reverse Mode continues even after battle. When a pokemon is in reverse mode.. - They cannot be healed by using and HP recovery items or abnormality items (Pokemon Center is still ok) - They will damage itself at the end of each turn in battle - They will obey all shadow attacks but might not obey non-shadow attacks To cure a Shadow Pokemon in reverse mode you need to call them during battle or use any scent on it. 6.4 - Purification - Shadow Pokemon can be purified and become a normal pokemon again but it will take some work. If you look at the Pokemon Status you will see that that a shadow pokemon EXP bar will be replaced with Heart Gauge. A Shadow Pokemon can only be purified if that gauge is empty. So that means purple is bad :D When the gauge is 100% full it will say "The door to its heart is tightly shut" and when it's 99% - 81% full it will say "The door to its heart is starting to open" During this time is probably when you first catch it. The nature of the Pokemon will be hidden during this time. When the gauge is 80%-61% full During this time if the Pokemon has a free space in it's moveset then it will learn a non-shadow move. When the gauge is 60%-41% full During this time you can see the nature of the Pokemon. When the gauge is 40%-21% full During this time you will learn your second non-shadow attack if you pokemon has room for it. When the gauge is 20%-1% full During this time the pokemon will have a higher chance of entering reverse mode. When the guage is empty it will say "The door to its heart is about to open" Finally you can purify the Shadow Pokemon into a normal one. How do you purify a Pokemon? First you need to lower the gauge so you can do that. There are many ways you can accomplish this. 1. Make it battle. By allowing it to battle the heart gauge will slightly decrease everytime you allow it to battle. 2. Call in during reverse mode. When a Pokemon goes into reverse mode call it. This will lower the gauge everytime you do this. 3. Use Scent items on it. After obtaining the Colonge Case you can purchase Scents at Agate Village. Use it on your pokemon to lower their heart gauge. 4. Have it in your party. If the Shadow Pokemon is in your party, the heart gauge will lower as you walk around. 5. Leave it in the Purification Chamber. Once Krane finishes the Purication Chamber allow your Shadow Pokemon to be in it. Note: Remember the higher level the pokemon the longer it takes to Purify it. Once it's it 0% you can purify it completely at Agate Village or the Purification Chamber. Once purified it will obtained all the EXP it gained while in battle as have their shadow moves replaced by other attacks. Some special that the Pokemon can't learn themselves. 6.5 - Purification Chamber - As you progess on your adventure Krane will evenually finish the Purification Chamber.Once it's completed Purifying a Pokemon will be a whole lot easier. This chamber allows you to slowly purify 9 pokemon at once without having them in your party. To do this you need to put a Shadow Pokemon in a set and up to 4 non-shadow pokemon to help purify it. The more pokemon the faster the process. The speed of the purifying process will depend on two factors. Tempo and Flow. Tempo bar is affected by how many pokemon are placed in the set and what types they are. To maximize the Tempo Bar you need to have four pokemon as well as their type being super effective to the other pokemon in a clockwise direction. For example if the pokemon on the top in a water type then the pokemon to it's clockwise direction should be fire. Then next could be ice, then next could be grass. By having this each pokemon type is super effective to the pokemon in its clockwise direction. If the pokemon has two types any of them would work regardess as long as one of them is super effective towards the next pokemon. The point of having high tempo is to have a high flow on purifying. *Note: within the chamber normal types are consider super effective on other normal types, so if you put 4 normal type pokemon you'll get max tempo* The speed at which a Shadow Pokemon is purified is referred to as the "Flow" Flow is affected by the tempo so if the tempo is high so will the flow. Once the heart gauge is empty for a pokemon in the Purification Chamber, go to the Purify Chamber at the Pokemon HQ lab and stop on the circle in the center of the room. Press A to start the Purification Ceremony. Once it's over your Pokemon is purified completely. 6.6 - Shadow Pokemon Location - Pokemon Lv.
