SNAGGING AND PURIFYING
SNAGGING AND PURIFYING
There are Pokémon who have been changed by an evil organization, and their hearts are shut. One of the main objectives of this game is to rescue these "Shadow Pokémon" by Snagging them.
WHAT IS SNAGGING?
WHAT IS SNAGGING?
Usually, you can't catch opponent's Pokémon. However, only you can Snag a Pokémon during battle. Once the battle has started, identify the Shadow Pokémon and throw a Poké Ball to Snag it. To make Snagging easier, weaken the Pokémon by attacking it until its HP is low. It will also be easier to catch the Pokémon if you put it to Sleep, Poison it, and so on.
If you were unable to Snag a Shadow Pokémon during a battle, don't worry, the Shadow Pokémon can be encountered again during your adventures.
DISTINGUISHING SHADOW POKéMON
DISTINGUISHING SHADOW POKéMON
You (the hero) can't tell whether a Pokémon is a Shadow Pokémon or not. However, during your adventure, you'll meet a partner who has a special ability to distinguish Shadow Pokémon from normal Pokémon.
SNAG AND PURIFY
SNAG AND PURIFY
PURIFY AND PURIFY COMPLETED
PURIFY AND PURIFY COMPLETED
When a Shadow Pokémon is Snagged, it is still a Shadow Pokémon. To open the closed door to its heart little by little is called "Purifying," and once the heart is fully opened, the "Purification" is complete.
TO PURIFY A POKéMON
Put it in your party and walk around with it.
• Make it battle.
• "CALL" the Pokémon during a battle when it is in
• HYPER MODE and make it "come to." Leave it in the Day Care.
• Use the "SCENT" items in the "COLOGNE CASE."
• By repeating the above methods the Pokémon will begin to become Purified. The Purifying process differs based on each Pokémon's nature.
TO COMPLETE PURIFYING
As the Purifying process progresses and the "Heart Gauge" becomes completely white, you will need to go to the "RELIC STONE" in Agate Village.
It seems as if there are other ways to purify Pokémon instantly...!?

SHADOW POKéMON
SHADOW POKéMON
SHADOW POKéMON
Shadow Pokémon are being used for wrongful acts because an evil organization has found a way to shut the door to their hearts. There are a few characteristics that differ from normal Pokémon to Snagged Shadow Pokémon.
SUMMARY OF SHADOW POKéMON
Heart Gauge
Shows the progress of Purifying.
Heart Condition
As the Purifying progresses, the condition of the heart changes.
Nature
When Purifying has progressed to a certain stage, you can find out the Pokémon's nature.
Move Names
When Purifying has progressed, moves other than "SHADOW RUSH" will be revealed and can be used.
SHADOW POKéMON MOVES
SHADOW POKéMON MOVES
At first, Shadow Pokémon can only use a move called "SHADOW RUSH." This move will not only damage opponents, but the attacking Pokémon as well. When Purifying has progressed, the Pokémon will be able to learn other moves. Also, when Purifying has been completed, "SHADOW RUSH" will be forgotten.
EXP. POINTS OF SHADOW POKéMON
EXP. POINTS OF SHADOW POKéMON
Shadow Pokémon that have just been Snagged can't gain any EXP. Points. Once a Shadow Pokémon's Purification has progressed to a certain stage, then that Shadow Pokémon can earn EXP. Points. When the Shadow Pokémon is Purified completely, all of the EXP. Points that it earned previously will be gained all at once.
THINGS SHADOW POKéMON CAN'T DO
THINGS SHADOW POKéMON CAN'T DO
The following things can't be done until a Shadow Pokémon's Purification is complete.
• Use an item that would make the Pokémon evolve or level up.
• Change the order of the Pokémon's moves.
• Delete the Pokémon's moves.
• Change the Pokémon's nickname.
• Exchange the Pokémon with Pokémon Ruby or Sapphire (see page 23).
• Participate in Battle Mode (see page 24).
• Enter in battles at PHENAC STADIUM.

LINKING UP TO TRADE POKéMON
LINKING UP TO TRADE POKéMON
When "SHADOW RUSH" is selected during a Shadow Pokémon's battle, the Shadow Pokémon may go into "HYPER MODE," which cloaks its body with a red aura. HYPER MODE will continue even after the battle is over. Also, the panel that indicates the Pokémon's name will change.
SHADOW POKéMON IN HYPER MODE...
• Have a higher critical-hit ratio when using "SHADOW RUSH" on their opponent.
• May not listen if a move other than "SHADOW RUSH" is selected.
• Can't use "items." The Shadow Pokémon will not be healed by using HP recovery and status abnormality items such as Potions and Antidotes. A Pokémon Center, Hotel, or Pokémon Recovery Machine can restore the HP and status abnormalities, but HYPER MODE can't be recovered.
HOW TO RECOVER FROM HYPER MODE
• "CALL" during a battle.
• Use a "SCENT" item from the "COLOGNE CASE."
• Leave it in the Day Care. *On rare occasions, the Pokémon will recover on its own.
Once you clear the Story Mode, you can trade Pokémon with Game Boy Advance Pokémon Ruby or Sapphire. It can be done in the basement of the PHENAC CITY Pokémon Center.
