Cipher Lab

Immediately upon entry to the Cipher Lab, you'll find the car that the gang took Professor Krane in. That probably means Professor Krane is here. Also immediately, six Cipher Peons in different colors appear. You only have to face one of them, but I'd recommend facing all six to raise your levels and catch all their Shadow Pokémon.
