·Multi-source verified (98/98)

Now that you've progressed the story, Fantina, the Hearthome City Gym Leader, will be available to battle. This Gym specializes in Ghost-type Pokémon. The Gym puzzle involves answering math questions to find the correct door. If you answer incorrectly, you'll battle a trainer. Fantina uses the following Pokémon:

Hearthome City Gym: Fantina - Pokémon Diamond and Pearl screenshot
Hearthome City Gym: Fantina
  • Drifblim (Lv. 32): Ghost/Flying type. Weak to Rock, Ghost, Electric, Ice, Dark.
  • Gengar (Lv. 34): Ghost/Poison type. Weak to Ghost, Psychic, Ground, Dark.
  • Mismagius (Lv. 36): Ghost type. Weak to Ghost, Dark. This is her ace Pokémon.

Strategy: Dark-type Pokémon are excellent here, as are other Ghost-types. Psychic-type moves are also effective against Gengar. Be careful with Normal and Fighting-type moves, as they have no effect on Ghost-types. Mismagius is fast and can hit hard. After defeating Fantina, you'll receive the Relic Badge, allowing you to use Surf outside of battle, and TM65 (Shadow Claw).
