Defeat Lovrina's Annoyer Pokémon and navigate B1 with this Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness walkthrough, detailing Cipher Peon battles and item locations.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Lovrina's Pokémon (Gardevoir, Gorebyss, Roselia, Farfetch'd, Altaria) utilize moves like Attract, Leech Seed, and Shadow Mist to inflict status conditions and make Snagging Shadow Pokémon difficult.
  2. 2
    Consider using a Pokémon with Safeguard, such as Ninetales, to counter status effects.
  3. 3
    Leaving Roselia out of the battle can disrupt the combo between Altaria's Shadow Mist and Farfetch'd's Shadow Panic.
  4. 4
    After defeating Lovrina, take the elevator down to B1.
  5. 5
    Proceed right through a hall to encounter Cipher Peon Bastil, who uses L35 Crobat, L35 Seviper, L34 Chimecho, and L34 Masquerain.
  6. 6
    Continue to find Cipher Peon Litnar, who uses L34 Electrode, L34 Misdreavus, L36 Claydol, L35+ Kangaskhan (S), and L37+ Banette (S).
  7. 7
    Pick up 5 Ultra Balls as you pass scientists before reaching Litnar at the elevator.
  8. 8
    Before taking the elevator up, explore the northeast and west corners of the floor.
  9. 9
    In the northeast corner, you will find Cipher Peon Grason, who uses L35 Absol, L34 Ninjask, L37 Sandslash, and L35 Mawile. Two Full Restores are also located here.
  10. 10
    In the northwest corner, you can find 3 Hyper Potions.
  11. 11
    On the next floor, you will receive two emails from Eagun.
  12. 12
    Push all blocks into the lava to drain it and access the exit.
  13. 13
    As you approach the exit, you will be ambushed by Grupel.
Tips
  • Gardevoir, Gorebyss, and Roselia each have Attract, which has a 50% chance of causing your Pokémon to become infatuated with the opposite gender.
  • Gardevoir and Gorebyss know moves that may inflict status conditions: Gardevoir's Ice Punch, Thunderpunch, and Psychic; Gorebyss' Water Pulse, Ice Beam, and Confusion.
  • Be wary of Roselia's Leech Seed, as it can hinder efforts to Snag Lovrina's Shadow Pokémon.
  • Altaria's Shadow Mist can make Farfetch'd's Shadow Panic easier to hit.
  • Roselia's Magical Leaf will not do much damage.
  • If you have a Pokémon with Safeguard, the battle will be much easier.
