Pokémon Colosseum

Introduction

Pok�mon Colosseum was released on November 21, 2003 in Japan, March 22, 2004 in North America and May 14, 2004 in Europe on the Nintendo GameCube. The game followed the basic stadium style battling found in the [[Pok�mon Stadium]] games but an extra was included in the form of an RPG which allowed trainers to catch Generation II and Generation III Pok�mon in the desolate region of Orre.

In the game, your character was part of an organization called Team Snagem and they obtained a machine which allowed someone to snag another's Pok�mon as if it were wild. Another team, Cipher was responsible for corrupting the hearts of Pok�mon giving them to trainers. With the help of a young girl named Rui, your character would be able to find the Pok�mon whose hearts were sealed and surrounded by a purple aura and use the Snag machine to rescue Shadow Pok�mon and restore them to normal.

About Ho-oh

Ho-oh is catchable in Pok�mon Colosseum when trainers have purified all the Shadow Pok�mon. Players would then have to use a team of Pok�mon from the RPG in the main game's 100 trainer knockout challenge.

Purifying Techiques

Pok�mon in the game can be purified in a variety of ways.

• Walking around with [[Shadow Pok�mon]] in your party.
• Rubbing scents on the Pok�mon (these can be bought at Agate Village).
• Battling with them and calling out when the Pok�mon reaches its hyper state.

Once the bar which indicates how open or how closed the heart is reaches the point where it says "The Pok�mon's heart is open! Unlock the final lock!", trainers would go to the Agate Village shrine and use its power to restore the Pok�mon's heart and remove the move known as Shadow Rush.

After trainers have beaten the game, Pok�mon can be traded to all Generation III games provided that their hearts are open.

Extra Pok�mon

Jirachi was available on the Pok�mon Colosseum Bonus Disk in North America. Celebi was also on a Bonus Disk. However, that Pok�mon was only available to the people in Japan.

Colosseums

The other half of the game consists of several colosseum venues that trainers could send Pok�mon from the RPG to battle or from the Gameboy Advance games.

• Phenac Colosseum
• Pyrite Colosseum
• Under Colosseum
• Orre Colosseum(Level 50 and Level 100)
• Tower Colosseum
