E. The Last Shadow Pokémon
NOTE: The initial version of this section was written completely
from memory, so there may be inaccuracies. I will fix them
when I play through this portion of the game again.
To proceed at this point in the game, you must have Snagged each
of the other 47 Shadow Pokémon in the game. After you have done
so, go to various cities, like Pyrite Town and The Under. You
will receive a couple of e-mails telling you that someone who
looks just like you is attacking people with a Shadow Togetic.
Eventually, after a lot of wandering from place to place, Nett
will give you an e-mail telling you to watch TV. Do it. You
will see the culprit at the Outskirt Stand. Save your game
and head there.
Once you get there, ignore the news crews, go inside the train,
and stock up on Ultra Balls.

SHADOW Pokémon #48/48: Togetic
P$ = 6,800
Opponents: Houndoom Lv68 Exp:?,
Manectric Lv68 Exp:?,
Gyarados Lv68 Exp:?,
Armaldo Lv68 Exp:?,
Milotic Lv68 Exp:?,
Togetic Lv20 SHADOW Pokémon #48/48
This is the final optional boss battle in the game, even though
the boss music is not playing. It should be, because this team
is pretty tough to beat. The fake Josh uses a strategy that's
like a hybrid of Dakim's and Ein's. He will protect his
Water-types with Manectric. This team is physically tough,
and has lots of Pokémon with Earthquake, making it hard to
Thunderdance, which is both this team's asset and flaw.
Still, I'd use Raikou and Suicune to take down this team.
If you're not a veteran at catching wild Pokémon, Snagging Togetic
will be pure hell. There are three approaches to this, and two
of them require imported Pokémon from Ruby/Sapphire.
APPROACH I
----------
This is the easiest way to Snag Togetic with only Colosseum's
Pokémon, but takes a lot of patience. First, isolate Togetic as
before, then swap in Tyranitar. This should cause Sand Stream to
kick in. Now put Togetic to sleep if you want. Shadow Rush won't
really matter because your Pokémon are much higher level. Once
Togetic's HP gets down to the low-to-mid yellow (red is pushing
it a little), use Sunny Day or Rain Dance to get rid of the
sandstorm. Now start throwing Balls. You should have little trouble
from here. If you have 30+ Balls and Tyranitar doesn't have a
stat-up move it can use to waste its turn, you can throw an
Ultra Ball every turn while the sandstorm lowers Togetic's HP.
This method is slow, but it works.
APPROACH II
-----------
This is a very risky method, but is the quickest way to Snag
Togetic. You will need a high-level Pokémon with the move
False Swipe, and a Pokémon with a move that can put Togetic
to sleep. Once you take out fake Josh's other five Pokémon,
swap in the False Swiper and the Hypnotizer. Put Togetic
to sleep, then use False Swipe one time. Togetic's HP should now
be exactly one. Then throw Ultra Balls and hope Togetic doesn't
wake up and KO itself.
APPROACH III
------------
This is the easiest and most sure-fire way to Snag Togetic using
imported Pokémon. Bring with you a Pokémon or two that are about
Lv15, and know weak moves like Tackle or Gust. Once you isolate
Togetic, swap in your weaker Pokémon and lower its HP for the
Snag, like you would catch any ordinary Pokémon.

The Trainer you just defeated will reveal himself as Fake Hero Fein,
a Cipher Peon. The news crew goes absolutely bonkers. Despite this
scene being shown on national television, Josh's reputation hits
rock bottom.

That's all, folks. You now have all 48 Shadow Pokémon. At this point
in the game, you should have lots of money (somewhere around
P$ 250,000.) Go to Agate Village and spend all of your money on
Scents to help speed the process of purification. Once you have
purified all 48 Pokémon, you can perform a special event at
Mt. Battle in Battle Mode (NOT Story Mode). Refer to the Mt. Battle
section of the Battle Mode part of this guide for details on the
event. If you have a GBA game, it would be wise to have your Pokémon
hold TMs before you transfer them to the GBA.
