Walkthrough:Pokémon Colosseum/Part 9

Finding Johto First Partner Evolution 2

You start in the Outskirt Sands. You'll get an e-mail. Head to the Under and talk to Nett. Go to Pyrite Town and talk to a kid behind the bookcase. It says that Cail fought a Pokémon Trainer with a Shadow Pokémon. Talk to Cail who will battle you. If you didn't snag his Furret he'll have it. After you battle him, he says it's in the Snagem Hideout, which is now on the map. Head there.

Up to six Pokémon Trainers with Shadow Pokémon that you failed to capture will appear. They won't let you by until you've snagged all their Pokémon. This includes Skrub with Hitmontop and many other minor Peons.

Why are you here? You're looking for one of the other second-stage Shadow first partner Pokémon Evolutions.

All Trainers here don't have Shadow Pokémon and are optional. Search the base until you find him. He's below a Snag Machine.

Bayleef
If Verde appears here:


Snag the first partner Evolution he has and leave the base. Next up is the last one.

Finding Johto First Partner Evolution 3

You'll get an e-mail from Nett, so go to The Under and talk to him. Nett will tell you that a guy named Gurks has more information about shadow Pokémon. Gurks is located on the second floor of the junk shop, on the outside balcony. Gurks tells you he battled a colored peon in The Under, but don't bother looking for him there. Instead just go to the Shadow Pokemon Lab. You'll get an e-mail telling you that the colored peon is inside.

This one is simple. The third Johto first partner Evolution is where Ein was. Just look through the Shadow Pokémon Lab part of the walkthrough. It's the same guy essentially, just a different Shadow Pokémon.

Finding Smeargle and Ursaring

Back in Snagem Hideout are two Trainers with Shadow Pokémon that weren't anywhere before. You'll find them.

Gonzap and Deep Colosseum

Throughout the Snagem Hideout with Smeargle and Ursaring now are a bunch of Trainers who have Shadow Pokémon you missed. And deep inside is Gonzap with his Skarmory, provided you didn't catch it.


You get a D-Disk for beating him. If you enter it into the UFO in The Under, you can go down. This will take you to Deep Colosseum, where 20 opponents are: 15 miscellaneous, 4 Cipher Admins, and the fabled Deep King.

Rematching Realgam Tower Trainers

Simply head back to where they were in Realgam Tower. You can reface all six Trainers atop it as well, including Nascour and Evice. You can't rematch the three Cipher Peons who had Shadow Pokémon in the first part of the Tower with the rails.

The Final Shadow Pokémon

Once you have seemingly every Pokémon you'll start getting tons of e-mails. It'll lead you to the Outskirt Sands, where one last Trainer is...


Upon defeating him, he'll reveal he's the Cipher Peon Fein, master of disguises. Your next goal should be to purify all remaining Shadow Pokémon in the game. After doing so, one final challenge remains.

Ho-Oh

Ho-Oh can be acquired by obtaining a 100-win streak in Battle Mode (either Single or Double Battle) with your Story Mode party after purifying all 48 Shadow Pokémon in Story Mode. Ho-Oh will then be placed in an open spot in the PC's Pokémon Storage.
