Extra Missions - The Palkia Mission




Available From: June 16th 2008 to July 18th 2008 (Japan), ??? (America)
Locations: Habura City, Hippowdon Temple, Ranger Union, Asoheru Tower, Vein Town, Chikore Village, Volcano Cave, Nurie Ruins

Walkthrough:
When the mission starts, you will be told that everything in Almia is going wrong, buildings are being warped, people moved to other places, doors going to where they shouldn't go. The explanation is that a portal has opened and Palkia has come through. You have to go and investigate this and prevent Palkia from causing any more damage. Exit the Ranger HQ and you'll find yourself in the Habura Desert. Go into the top-right building in the town and you'll end up entering the Hippowdon Temple. Follow it through as normal, however the Pokémon there are totally abnormal, you will find Pokémon such as Arcanine and Fearow here, as well as other people such as a fisherman fishing in the quicksand. Once you exit that room, you end up by the Ranger Union...There's a Piloswine and Swinub here that will inevitably be useful later so capture them. Continue through the rooms, dotting around Almia as you go, capturing Pokémon where you see fit as there are many powerful Pokémon enroute. Eventually you'll end up back at the heart of Hippowdon Temple and you'll see Palkia and the portal

In Palkia's battle, also a boss fight, you will have to move your styler off a lot of the time due to the place that the fight is taking place constantly changes. Its first attack, like Dialga's is a hyper beam that makes it pause slightly afterwards leaving it wide open. Its second attack shoots several energy balls out in three waves. With his third attack being the place change, you will discover further obstacles, such as fire coming up in the Volcano Cave and ice shards appearing on the Ice Field. Once you return to Hippowdon Temple, his third attack is a powerful shockwave, while energy balls circle the stage. Once captured, it will leave and the mission is over, with the world returning to normal.
