Introduction to the Guide
Hi I'm AC Fanatic this is my first GameFAQ so I don't
expect it to ever get accepted, but I'm going to try at least.
I have written this guide mainly for the younger kiddies
that need help with knowing what to do when you have to face and
defeat a boss not how to capture their shadow pokemon, mainly to
keep them from asking stupid questions on the Message Boards like
Me.
This GameFAQ should provide the reader with enough
informationto be able to kick their way through the somewhat
challenging Bosses, and help them restore Peace and Tranquility
to the Region of Orre.
------------------------------
In Depth Strategy on Bosses
Boss #1: Miror B.
Pokemon: *Sudowoodo* Lv. 35
Ludicolo Lv. 29
Ludicolo Lv. 30
Ludicolo Lv. 28
Ludicolo Lv. 31
Strategy: As the first boss Miror B. has a well put together team,
except for the major flaw of having four of the same Pokemon!
Ludicolo is an Water-Grass type Pokemon, but neither Fire or
Electric type attacks will do much damage to them. So I would
recommend that you should use the Flying attack Fly which will
be a super effective hit against Miror B.'s Ludicolo's. Also at
the beginning of the battle you Should use the an attack that
will put the Ludicolo's th sleep such as Sleep Powder or
Hypnosis on his Ludicolo's to stop the possible threat
of the Ludicolo's using Rain Dance which will restore HP to the
Ludicolo's due to their ability Rain Dish which restores some
HP to the Pokemon every turn. To take care of Sudowoodo
take him out with Fighting, Water, Ground, or Grass type attacks.
***
Boss #2: Dakim
Pokemon: *Entei* Lv. 40
Metang Lv. 37
Marshtomp Lv. 36
Golem Lv. 38
Camerupt Lv. 38
Strategy: Dakim has a bright idea that he can use protect
on one of his Pokemon then use Earthquake with his other
Pokemon, which isn't a bad idea at all, also Dakim will
always start out with Metang and Golem/Camerupt. Firstly
I highly recommend the use of a Water Pokemon since the
majority of his Pokemon are weak against Water attacks,
and you may want to use a flying type again since Earthquake
can't hit flying type Pokemon. On the very first turn you
may want to use only status affecting attacks so you can
find out who is using Protect and Earthquake. On the second
turn whoever used Protect last turn will use Earthquake this
turn and visa versa for the other Pokemon, so attack with
both of your Pokemon the one that used protect last turn
and do the same thing till all of his Pokemon are defeated.
***
Boss #3: Venus
Pokemon: *Suicune* Lv. 40
Delcatty Lv. 45
Vileplume Lv. 44
Banette Lv. 45
Steelix Lv. 45
Strategy: Venus is one of the harder trainers to
defeat due to her Steelix. Venus has a wide variety
of Pokemon so there is no real strategy to defeating
her easily. Three types of Pokemon that I would
recommend would be Psychic, Fire, and Electric. You
would want a Pschic type Pokemon to KO Vileplume
easily.Then try to damage Delcatty badly before
Delcatty can use attract which will make one of
your Pokemon unable to use its moves most of the
time against both of Venus's Pokemon. The Fire type
Pokemon would be used for Steelix so you may
quickly knock it out of the ring. And the Electric
type would be for Suicune mainly but possibly for
Banette also, use any type of electric attack for
Suicune, and in a few turns Suicune should be
down on the ground.
***
Boss #4: Ein
Pokemon: *Raikou* Lv. 40
Lanturn Lv. 47
Altaria Lv. 46
Huntail Lv. 47
Golbat Lv. 48
Strategy: Ein mainly uses Water and Electric
type Pokemon, so it's not very hard picking
the types of Pokemon that you need, except for
the fact that the types you need are fairly
rare in Orre. You obviously need Electric and
Ground type Pokemon, but the only 2 Electric
type you have come across so far are Flaaffy
(Hopefully it is now an Ampharos) and Pluse
which is for the most part extremely useless,
and as for the Ground type the only one is
Piloswine and you may have missed catching it
so forget the ground type unless you want to
start purifying it until it learns dig which
is really only useful against Raikou. There
isn't really much I can do to help you here
except provide you with tips and battle
information, so you just need to go with
your instincts and hope for the best.

Boss #5: Miror B. REMATCH
Pokemon: *Sudowoodo* Lv. 35
Armaldo Lv. 43
Ludicolo Lv. 44
Ludicolo Lv. 45
Golduck Lv. 45
Loudred Lv. 46
Strategy: Miror B. has decided since your last
battle with him ended in your favor to add a
few new friends to his/her team, which include
Golduck, Loudred, and Armaldo. Loudred is most
likely going to be the biggest threat to you
because of his attack Shadow Ball, you may want
to target your attacks on him. As for Golduck
and Armaldo take them out with Electric and Fire
type attacks. Use the same strategy as before
for the rest of his Pokemon. You should then
have a quick and easy win.
***
Boss #6: Dakim REMATCH
Pokemon: *Entei* Lv. 40
Houndoom Lv. 47
Flygon Lv. 46
Forretress Lv. 45
Whiscash Lv. 46
Claydol Lv. 46
Strategy: Dakim was the hardest for me to defeat
out of the 4 in a row boss rematches, because
all of his Pokemon are different except for
Entei. About half of Dakims Pokemon are of the
Ground type so I recommend the use of water Pokemon
and Pokemon of the Flying type also, because he still
uses the Earth Quake/Protect technique again. Also be
on alert he also uses the Sunny Day Solarbeam technique,
so you may want to have one of your water Pokemon know
Rain Dance so you can stop the threat of 5 Solarbeams
in a row.
***
Boss #7: Venus REMATCH
Pokemon: *Suicune* Lv. 40
Milotic Lv. 48
Bellossom Lv. 47
Raichu Lv. 48
Wigglytuff Lv. 48
Misdreavus Lv. 47
Strategy: Venus has a whole new team like Dakim accept for
Suicune, so she is also a bit hard. She has only
Pokemon of only one type so that makes it even more
dificult. I would strongly advise the use of Electric,
Psychic, and Fire(after the water Pokemon are taken out)
Pokemon to get the job done. Milotic is probably the Hardest to
take down because of its Ice attacks that can be very
threatening.
***
Boss #8: Ein REMATCH
Pokemon: *Raikou* Lv. 40
Manectric Lv. 50
Starmie Lv. 49
Rhydon Lv. 50
Pelipper Lv. 49
Crobat Lv. 48
Strategy: Finally the last out of the Realgam Tower
Rematches Ein. Ein right from the start will try to
poison both of your Pokemon so you may want to use attacks
that make you impossible to hit for the first turn such as
Fly, Dig, and Dive, but just in case you may want to carry some
Full Heals or Lum and Pecha Berries. First of all you may want
to use many Electric type atacks because three of his pokemon
are weak against Electric type attacks they are, Starmie, Pelipper,
and Crobat. And as for Raikou and Manectric use a solid hitting
Ground attack and you should knock'em out fast. For Rydon just get
him with a water attack and you should have a fun and successful
battle.
***
Boss #9: Gonzap
Pokemon: *Skarmory* Lv. 47
Crawdaunt Lv. 52
Pinsir Lv. 52
Hariyama Lv. 53
Shiftry Lv. 53
Strategy: Gonzap is now your new Arch Enemy, he weilds the
power of 1 Hit Wonder(Pokemon Stadium Pun:) Attacks, so you will
want to afflict his Pokemon immediately with Staus afflicting
attacks, such as Hypnosis, Poison Powder, and Thunder Wave to
lessen the chance of being hit with one of Ein's devastating
attacks such as Crabhammer and Earthquake. After that you should
hit his team with mainly Fire type attacks to steal the win, but
its not the last time you will meet up with Gonzap...
***
Boss #10: Nascour
Pokemon: *Metagross* Lv. 50
Gardevoir Lv. 55
Xatu Lv. 54
Dusclops Lv. 55
Walrein Lv. 56
Blaziken Lv. 54
Strategy: Let me be the first to congratulate you on making it
this far, but also let me be the first to tell you that the next
battle isnt a walk in the park. The majority of Nascours Pokemon
are weak to dark type attacks so make sure you have some Pokemon
with dark type attacks, you may also want to hit his Metagross
with ground type attacks to take it out easily. For the rest
of his Pokemon, just hit Walrein with acouple of fighting type
attacks, then just hit Blaziken with a couple of water type
attacks and the victory should be yours. Congratulations you
have beaten Realgam tower, but wait who could that be?
***
Boss #11: Evice
Pokemon: *Tyranitar* Lv. 55
Salamence Lv. 60
Machamp Lv. 61
Scizor Lv. 60
Slaking Lv. 60
Slowking Lv. 61
Strategy: Yes, The person who has been behind the evil plot
to take over the world is the Ever Evil Evice(aka The Mayor).
Evice has a wide variety of Pokemon so it will not be an
easy task to defeat Evice. To defeat Tyranitar take him down
with a few water type attacks, but to make the battle easier
just throw the Master Ball that you got earlier in the game.
For the rest of his Pokemon, take down Salamence with ice
attacks, Machamp will go down easily with one good Psychic
attack, Scizor will go down with a fire type attack, Slacking
will go down with some fighting type attacks, and finally hit
Slowking with a nice Electric type attack and if you can pull
this off, CONGRATULATIONS THE REALGAM TOWER ADVENTURE IS OVER!
But, the Boss Battles still rage on...
***
Boss #12: Gonzap REMATCH
Pokemon: *Skarmory* Lv. 47
Crawdaunt Lv. 64
Armaldo Lv. 64
Machamp Lv. 64
Breloom Lv. 64
Granbull Lv. 64
Strategy: Your Arch Enemy is back for a second beating. This
he has almost all new Pokemon and all of them are fairly high
leveled. Gonzaps Pokemon almost imeadiately use Hyper Beam as
soon as they can so be prepared for a few harsh blows, but
his Pokemon must then rest for a turn to regain some lost
energy, so now is your turn to hit them with some powerful
attacks. To defeat crawdaunt hit him with a Thunder or
Thunderbolt attack to deal some serious damage, As for
Armaldo take him out with surf, Machamp is another easy
KO take Machamp down with a couple of Psychic attacks,
take Breloom down with a fire attack, the last and certainly
least Granbull will go down with a good fighting attack such
as Brick Break.
***
Boss #13: Angol
Pokemon: *Shuckle* Lv. 45
Girafarig Lv. 68
Sableye Lv. 69
Skarmory Lv. 66
Shedinja Lv. 68
Kingdra Lv. 70
Strategy: Who the heck are you? Yeah Angol is a little
strange looking if you ask me. But now to get on to the strategy.
Angol is probably has the strongest team in the game other than
yourself but he isn't all that hard to defeat. The only real
hard thing to defeat is Shedinja, because of its ability wonder
guard it can only be hit by super effective hits, so the only
type of attacks that can touch are Flying, Fire, Ghost, Dark,
and Dark, so make sure you bring at least one Pokemon with
one of those type of attacks and take down the rest with your
own skills by just pelting them with strong attacks, but make
sure your Pokemon are about the same levels as Angol's or you may
have some trouble defeating him.

Boss #14: Shady Guy
Pokemon: *Togetic* Lv. 20
Armaldo Lv. 68
Milotic Lv. 68
Manectric Lv. 68
Houndoom Lv. 68
Gyrados Lv. 68
Strategy: Good Job you have made to final battle, Vs. Yourself?
Yes Shady Guy has taken the form of YOU! He has quite the easy
team to defeat as long as your Pokemon are Lv. 65 and above,
if they arent then go do some training. Togetic can be taken
down with almost any attack, Alrmaldo can be taken down with a
high leveled Surf attack, Milotic should be taken down with some
electric attacks the same goes for Gyarados, take down Magnetric
with a good rock type attack, as for Houndoom get rid of him with
a good Water type attack and take the Victory for the last time!
Good Job!

Techniques on Capturing Shadow Pokemon
There are three major steps in Snaging Pokemon they are as
follows:
1 weaken the Pokemon- When a Pokemon HP meter begins to get in
the yellow you may want to read step 2.
2 Inflict the Pokemon with a Status Condition- Use attacks such
as Hypnosis, Poison Powder, and Thunder Wave.
3 Throw a Snag Ball- When you think you can catch the Pokemon,
use the Poke, Great, Ultra, Premier, Net, Nest, Timer, or the
almighty never failing Master Ball.
