Learn how to clear Battle CDs 47 & 48 at the Cipher Key Lair in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness. Get tips and strategies to defeat Greevil's powerful team.
Alright, so you've made it to Citadark Isle and are ready to take on the Cipher Key Lair. This is where things get serious, especially if you're aiming to clear Battle CDs 47 and 48. These are your final challenges before facing Grandmaster Greevil himself, so you'll want to be prepared.
Walkthrough
- 1First things first, you need to have completed the main story and defeated Greevil on Citadark Isle.
- 2After that, head to the Orre Colosseum and participate in the first round. You'll need to defeat Lovrina.
- 3Once Lovrina is down, keep an eye on your e-mail. Eagun's wife, Beluh, will send you a message about a strange Pokémon affliction in Agate Village.
- 4Head over to Agate Village and speak with Beluh. She'll explain that the wild Pokémon have gone mute.
- 5Investigate further by talking to Senilor and then the old man at the Pokémon Center. He'll mention Dr. Kaminko's voice-translating machines.
- 6Go to Dr. Kaminko's House. He'll give you Voice Case 1 to help cure the mute Pokémon.
- 7Return to Agate Village and use Voice Case 1 on the woman's Combusken.
- 8Head back to Kaminko's for Voice Case 2, then cure the Matron's Poochyena.
- 9Repeat this process: get Voice Case 3 from Kaminko, cure the Berry Master's Taillow, get Voice Case 4.
- 10When you try to use Voice Case 4 on Senilor's Wobbuffet, it won't work. You'll need to go back to Kaminko's House.
- 11There, Megg from ONBS will email you about her Shroomish losing its voice. Kaminko will then give you Voice Case 5.
- 12Take Voice Case 5 to the ONBS station in Pyrite Town and use it on Megg's Shroomish.
- 13Megg will then inform you about mute Pokémon in Gateon Port and Phenac City. Return to Kaminko's House.
- 14Dr. Kaminko will give you a Cry Analyzer. Use this to answer a quiz correctly about the muted Pokémon to restore their voices.
- 15Head to Gateon Port to use the Cry Analyzer.
Tips
- Grandmaster Greevil's team is tough, so make sure your Pokémon are well-leveled and have good type coverage. Aerodactyl and Altaria are particularly dangerous due to their Flying type, so bring Pokémon that can resist or counter them.
- Manectric is fast and hits hard with Electric-type moves. Ground-type Pokémon are your best bet here.
- Starmie is a versatile special attacker, so having a Pokémon that can take its hits and dish out super-effective damage (like a Grass or Electric type) is crucial.
- Don't forget about the Lucky Egg quest! It's a great reward for your efforts and will help immensely with training future Pokémon.
