The Purify Chamber (Japanese: リライブホール Relive Hall) is a series of nine Sets located in the Pokémon HQ Lab, developed by Michael's father and Professor Krane to make purification faster just in case Cipher would ever return. The Purify Chamber can be accessed either via PC, or in the case of purification, the HQ Lab. They are different, as the PC version uses menu sprites, while the one in the HQ Lab uses overworld sprites. Also, Shadow Pokémon can only be purified in the HQ Lab.

A Set operates via the type of the Pokémon in it. That is, the effectiveness of the purification Set depends on what the types that the Pokémon inside do to the other Pokémon inside. Whether the type has no effect (Ground on Flying), a weak effect (Fire on itself), a normal effect (Normal on Grass), or a strong effect (Dark on Psychic) determines whether the flow is very weak, weak, normal, or strong, respectively. The effectiveness can be against either of the Pokémon's types, and stem from either type. For the purposes of the Purify Chamber, it is assumed that Normal is strong against itself, meaning that the Chamber has a possibility of only using Normal type Pokémon.

The Purify Chamber works by slowly opening a Pokémon's heart with time. The higher the tempo and flow in a chamber, the faster the purification proceeds. This works for all Shadow Pokémon except Shadow Lugia. The Purify Chamber is the only method to purify Shadow Lugia. Lugia must be placed into a Set where all nine slots are at the maximum tempo. Lugia will then have its Heart Gauge opened; however, its heart will fully close again if it is removed from the chamber before being purified or if the tempo of any chamber has reduced from being at the maximum.
