Ranger Net (Japanese: レンジャーネット Ranger Net) is a feature in the games Pokémon Ranger, Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia and Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs. It allows players to play and replay special missions that are normally not found in the game. The Ranger Net missions are still available if the save file is deleted.

Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:

In the first Ranger game, it unlocks after finishing the game. Special missions could be downloaded locally via GBA cartridge (SLOT-2) or wireless distribution in the Japanese version. The game boots within the Ranger Net and unlocks it automatically (even if there is no save data), but the downloaded missions can't be played before finishing the game.

A Manaphy Egg can be transferred to any Generation IV game using Mystery Gift, which must have been unlocked already after finishing the specific missions. In the Wii U Virtual Console version of the first Ranger game, the Mystery Gift cannot be transferred.

Dialga in Hia Valley!?

Dialga in Almia Castle

Dialga has disrupted the flow of time, sending the player and Wendy back in time to before the player's family has moved to Chicole Village. Apparently, the injured Dialga used Roar of Time on the player and Wendy to protect itself. Dialga is found in the Almia Castle, right by the Riolu statues. This is where Wendy and the player must go in order to capture it so that they could treat it and go back to their own time. However, Dialga will use Roar of Time once again if the capture takes too long (about 60 seconds), sending the player back to Chicole Village. After the capture, Professor Hastings would claim that the player took 10 seconds to capture Dialga.

Palkia in Haruba Desert!?

Palkia in Hippowdon Temple

Palkia's presence starts to distort the fabric of space in Almia. This causes the Pokémon to appear in places they usually don't and other odd things, such as fishermen fishing by sand and lava. This also causes people to go to a different place when they enter things such as doors. The player will have to capture Palkia in the basement of Hippowdon Temple so that it could be treated and the distortions could be fixed. Sven and Henry join the player during this mission.

For the Bride and Shaymin!

Shaymin hidden in the flowers

Erma and Professor Hastings receive an invitation on behalf of the player. It turns out that Ollie and Elaine are getting married! The player, Hastings, and the other rangers come and celebrate, but Team Dim Sun Remnants show up, trying to steal the bride's bouquet. It turns out the bouquet is none other than a Shaymin! Team Dim Sun wants to get it in order to sell the rare Pokémon for a huge amount of money to buy new weapons for the team.

Shaymin flees, and the player is assigned to return Shaymin, whose tendency is to hide with flowers. To make things more difficult, there are flowers all over the town shaped like Shaymin! The player, Hastings, and the other rangers leave the couple behind. They are not the only ones looking, though, as Team Dim Sun also wants to find it. During the first encounter of the scared Shaymin, the player will have to capture an Absol and Umbreon. On the second encounter, the player will have to capture a Roserade and two Bellossom. After that, Team Dim Sun manages to corner Shaymin on the bridge, who, out of anger, attacks them. The player then has to capture it to calm it down. After that everyone returns to the wedding, Shaymin will shower the place with flowers as a sign of gratitude and disappear.

Deoxys and the Odd Temple

Mission artwork.

(Japanese: デオキシスとナゾのしんでん)

The mission ends with the player having to capture Deoxys, who challenges them in all four of its forms. Once the player has defeated it, they will have the ability to transfer it to any of the Generation IV core series Pokémon games. This mission can only be completed in multiplayer mode, since there are two buttons that require each player to push at the same time. Each mission has a group leader, and the group leader is the only one who may download the Deoxys.

The forme of the Deoxys received depends entirely upon how much time remains when the mission is cleared. All forms know the move Psycho Boost, which Deoxys normally learns at level 89.

  • S rank (5:00 or more remaining): Attack Forme with Meteor Mash, which Deoxys cannot normally learn.
  • A rank (3:00 - 4:59 remaining): Defense Forme with Detect, which Deoxys cannot normally learn.
  • B rank (1:00 - 2:59 remaining): Speed Forme.
  • C rank (0:59 or less remaining): Normal Forme.

The Deoxys can be encountered and transferred an infinite amount of times, but each core game can only receive one Deoxys, regardless of its form.

Protect the Blue Sphere!

The Manaphy Egg.

(Japanese: でんせつのあおいたまをまもれ!)

The second mission features the Pokémon Ranger staple, the Manaphy Egg. In this mission, the Manaphy Egg appears in the Oblivia Region. However, the Pokémon Pinchers want to get their hands on it so the player has to prevent them from doing so, even going Underwater to do it. Once the player has retrieved the Egg, it can be sent to any handheld Generation IV game.

The third mission features the Pokémon Heatran. In this mission, players will get notified of massive eruptions in a volcano in Oblivia which has been disturbing the nearby tourists. The player's task is to investigate the cause, which turns out to be Heatran. By capturing it and completing the mission, players will be able to transfer Heatran over to any core series Generation IV Pokémon game.

Notably, this Heatran knows the move Eruption, which it cannot normally learn; Magma Storm, which it normally learns at level 96; and Earth Power, which it normally learns at level 73.

The fourth mission features the Pokémon Shaymin. In the mission, players will be notified that a Shaymin has arrived in Oblivia. Naturally, the Pokémon Pinchers are eager to capture Shaymin. This mission requires players to protect it, and even take to the skies, when Shaymin transforms into its Sky Forme. Capture the Shaymin and the player will be able to transfer it to their Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold or SoulSilver games. This Shaymin can also activate the Gracidea event in Platinum, HeartGold and SoulSilver.

Find Giratina's Griseous Orb!

(Japanese: ギラティナにはっきんだまを!!)

This extra mission features Giratina in both of its formes, and takes place in the Oblivia Ruins. The mission requires the player to capture Giratina, in its Altered Forme. Then, the player must search the ruins for its Griseous Orb. Upon finding the Orb, the player must take it back to Giratina and capture it again, now in its Origin Forme.

Pledge to Arceus

(Japanese: アルセウスへのちかい)

This extra mission features the Pokémon of Myth and their creator. The mission requires the player to venture around the Sky Fortress and capture Dialga, Palkia and Giratina in order to stop spacial distortions around the area. Once the player has done so, they must capture Arceus as well to calm its rage. No mystery gift is given with this mission.

Trivia

  • When the player plays through two extra missions in Shadows of Almia, Dialga in Hia Valley!? and Palkia in Haruba Desert!?, many new areas open up inside Almia Castle and Hippowdon Temple. These areas are not found in normal gameplay.
  • Also, as stated by the designers, the player cannot save inside the extra missions in Shadows of Almia. Therefore, all exits capable of getting out of Haruba Desert or Almia Castle are blocked. The Save Machines read: "It says 'Undergoing Adjustments' on the screen".
  • In the special mission, Rescue the Lost Shaymin!, Shaymin uses its Land Forme's cry, even when it's in its Sky Forme.
