Learn how to find Jovi and progress through Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, starting at Pokémon HQ Lab and heading to Kaminko's House.

Alright, so the first thing you'll do in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness is pick a name for yourself – the default is Michael. After that, you'll get to see that intro video with Shadow Lugia snatching the S.S. Libra. Pretty dramatic start, huh?

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Pokémon HQ Lab: You'll kick things off in a Battle SIM against Sim Trainer Losten's Metagross (Level 50). Don't worry too much about the outcome; it doesn't affect the game later on. Your starting Pokémon is a Level 10 Eevee with just Tackle, Bite, Tail Whip, and Sand-Attack. After the sim, chat with the researchers, then head up to Professor Krane's office on the second floor. Your mom, Lily, will tell you Jovi's missing and ask you to find her. Professor Krane will tell you to grab a P*DA he left in your room. Head to your room (northeast corner, first floor), open the chest, and grab the P*DA. This thing's your main tool for now, with E-mail and the Strategy Memo (like a Pokédex). It'll get more functions later.
  2. 2
    E-mail from Krane: Check your P*DA for an e-mail from Krane. He mentions Adon was playing hide-and-seek with Jovi and suggests you talk to him.
  3. 3
    Find Adon: Adon is upstairs, in the room next to the lounge. He'll tell you Jovi went to Dr. Kaminko's House to see her friend Chobin and will mark it on your map.
  4. 4
    News Report: Before you leave the lab, a scientist will want you to watch the ONBS news on the lounge TV (northwest room). It's about the missing S.S. Libra cargo ship.
  5. 5
    Items and a Trainer: Head outside the lab. There's a scientist in the yard who will battle you: Supertrainer Aferd with a Level 5 Sentret. Follow the sidewalk to the left and grab two Antidotes from a chest at the end.
  6. 6
    Save and Go: Before you leave Pokémon HQ Lab, make sure to save your game! It's always a good idea to save whenever you travel to a new area. Now, select Kaminko's House from the World Map.
  7. 7
    Kaminko's House: This place looks pretty creepy and is home to the eccentric inventor Dr. Kaminko and his assistant Chobin. As you approach the door, Chobin will challenge you...
