Walkthrough:Pokémon Legends: Z-A/Part 8
Bring the things
When you wake up and head down to the lobby only Lida is there. You have a quick chat before she heads out and AZ informs you that she left her bag. He encourages you to deliver it to her, and have a battle while you're there.
We meet up with Lida and see her training with Staryu. She asks you if you want to battle and she has a level 22 Clauncher, level 22 Vanillite and level 23 Staryu. Once she's defeated, you'll receive an update to your Z-A Royale app. Your next promotional match will be against the Rank W trainer Rintaro, and you'll need 5000 points before you're about to face him.
Extra Pokémon
While not mandatory, this is the point where you can grab a guaranteed Shiny Pokémon. You can find the requester for Side Mission 017 giver near the court behind Wild Zone 1. Once you've started the mission, go to the highest point Wild Zone 1, past the boulders and up the two ladders. Once you get there, you'll automatically call the woman who gave you the quest. This completes the quest where you'll receive $500 and 3 Pretty Feather. You can of course catch the Shiny Pokémon afterwards.
Another mission that will be of interest is Side Mission 022. At some point after you visit a Pokémon Center Mable will call you and ask you to come to the Pokémon Research Lab for a mission. Once you go to the Lab you will find Squirtle, Bulbasaur and Charmander talking in the Director's Office. Simply choose the one you want and that will complete the mission. You will receive that Pokémon, $1000, 3 Exp Candy XS, and 2 Exp Candy S. While you can only choose one of the three Pokémon here, you'll be able to obtain all of these Pokémon through other means later in the game, so you can pick whichever one you prefer without any hesitation.
Wild side
Wild Zone 7 is now open with some new Pokémon you can catch. This is the perfect opportunity to add some fresh faces to the team. You can find the Wild Zone to the west of Prism Tower.

Battle time
Once you have collected any Pokémon that you would like, then it's time to earn your next Challenger's Ticket. For this one you will need 5000 points, and as usual you need to wait for night, or pass time on a bench until the sky is dark. Then you can fast travel to the battle zone, and you're ready to take on some fights.
The easiest way to make sure you collect your ticket in one night is to grab bonus cards and make sure you complete the tasks. If you think you've run out of trainers to battle, don't forget that you can go up onto the roofs of the buildings to find more trainers.
Cooking up a battle
With our ticket secured we're ready to take on Rintaro. He has a level 26 Simisage, Simipour, and Simisear. One of the most dangerous parts of this fight is that all of the monkeys have Protect and they know how to use it, often Protecting on your high damage moves.
Despite this you should have the advantage in the number of Pokémon. Once you've taken Rintaro down you'll see that you've now completed Main Mission 08. However, as soon as you leave the restaurant, your next mission will begin.
