Walkthrough:Pokémon Colosseum/Part 8

Realgam Tower: Part 1

Realgam Tower is on the map. This is the final area of the main game. Go to it, and enter it, go upwards, and you'll find an old man. Speak to him and answer "NO". As you prepare to leave, it transforms and reveals it was a Cipher Peon in disguise.

Reward:
$1,600


Easy compared to what you're going to experience in the Realgam Tower. You should now heal+save. Head left, then up, then up. The Cipher Peon you chose now battles you.


Sunflora is easy to catch, really. Gloom and Jumpluff shouldn't be hard. Remember, you can go back and heal+save like always. You should fight the other Peon now, because you'll have to go both ways eventually.


Easy to catch and beat. Head right, you'll find a door with four keys. What four people could be holding these keys? Head left and then up. You'll find Venus.


Hard, hard battle. Suicune appears instead of Milotic if you didn't snag it. BLUE KEY GET! Head down, right, right, and up. Here you'll find Ein.


Hard, hard battle. Raikou appears instead of Manectric if you didn't snag it. YELLOW KEY GET! Go down, left, left, down, right, down, and left. Here you'll find Miror B. and his funky hair. Unforunately there is no good music playing.


Hard, hard battle. Sudowoodo appears instead of Armaldo if you didn't snag it. RED KEY GET! Go right, right, and up. Here you'll find Dakim.


Hard, hard battle. Entei appears instead of Houndoom if you didn't snag it. GREEN KEY GET! You can now open the door. Head down, left, up (save+heal), left, up, and right. You're at the giant door. Insert the four keys and BAM! another Cipher Peon. He's trying to do this yet you just defeated all four Cipher Admins.


Easy pickins. Enter the giant door.

Realgam Tower: Part 2

Immediately you'll get an e-mail. Open your P☆DA to see the list of Shadow Pokémon. It's not all of them. Head upwards.

Head to the top-right to find one of the Trainers with a Shadow Pokémon. This was the Cipher Peon that you snagged the Johto starter from. Fight!


Piece of cake. He'll have your Bayleef/Croconaw/Quilava if you didn't catch it earlier. Don't go upstairs but go back and across the hall. Halfway there, you'll run into Silva who is disguised. Enter the right wing... but before you can a Bodybuilder gets in your way and nearly scares my sister to death.

After the battle, leave and go up the elevator near Silva. Before you do, you might want to save+heal. After a cutscene, you can take a left into a door. You can save, but if you want to heal, you'll have to face the following Trainer.

Now, Two elevators won't work, but the third one releases a little surprise... it's Gonzap, an old face! Prepare for a battle between you and your old boss!


Very hard battle. Prepare yourself. After beating Gonzap, head to the roof.

Realgam Tower: Part 3

So here's the rundown. You have four matches against random Trainers, and two more matches.


Miltank Snagging is semi-hard. Beating Jomas is so-so difficulty.


Absol Snagging is hard. Beating Delan is so-so difficulty.


Houndoom Snagging is semi-hard. Beating Nella is so-so difficulty.


Tropius Snagging is hard. Beating Ston is semi-hard.

Alright, it's the moment we've all been waiting for. Nascour walks on-stage with dramatic music. This battle has good music because there is none at all which just adds to the epic-ness.


Metagross Snagging is very hard. Beating Nascour is hard.

Upon defeat, Nascour is saddened. He apologizes... but to who? Suddenly, the mayor Es Cade pops out of the ground. It turns out he's really the head of Cipher, and on top of that, Es Cade is really a disguise! He's really Evice, super clown!


Tyranitar Snagging is very hard. Beating Evice is very hard.

Upon defeat, I won't spoil the ending cinematics. The guide's not finished: It's going to catch every Shadow Pokémon there is. A number of trainers in Pyrite Town and Pyrite Cave are available to rematch, though.
