Main Mission 35 - Reaching Rank A Walkthrough

Reaching Rank A Guide
1
After the cutscene, fast travel to the Looker Bureau to consult with Emma regarding the identity of Grisham.

Head inside and after a short cutscene, Emma will challenge you to a Pokemon battle. Exit the bureau and speak to Emma to start the fight.
2 Defeat Emma
Emma's Pokemon:
Lv. 57 Ampharos
Lv. 57 Mawile
Lv. 57 Lucario
Lv. 57 Lopunny
Lv. 58 Malamar
Emma has well-balanced team of 5 Pokemon that and starts the fight with a Lv. 57 Ampharos, followed by a Lv. 57 Mawile, Lv. 57 Lucario, and a Lv. 57 Lopunny. Her strongest Pokemon is a Lv. 58 Malamar that can mega evolve into Mega Malamar.

Camerupt is a great choice for this fight as it can deal super effective damage to Ampharos, Mawile, and Lucario with its Ground-type Moves. Meanwhile, you can send out Heracross against Lopunny and Malamar and deal super effective damage with its Fighting and Bug-type Moves respectively.
2
After the fight, Emma discusses some history regarding Lysandre and Team Flare and recommends asking Mable at the Pokemon Research Lab for clues regarding Grisham.

Fast travel to the Pokemon Research Lab and speak with Mable for a cutscene who reveals that Grisham was a particularly strong trainer in Team Flare.

You'll need to head to Nouveau Cafe to find Grisham. Before heading there, head to a Pokemon Center and heal your Pokemon and stock up on some Full Restores and Revives.

When ready, speak with the man inside the food truck who reveals himself as Grisham and the boss of Team Flare Nouveau. After a short cutscene, Griselle will send you coordinates to a spot in the city where Grisham asks you to meet up.

The meeting spot is slightly northeast of Magenta Plaza. Once there, a cutscene will play in front of the now abandoned Lysandre Cafe. Speak to Griselle after the cutscene to challenge her to a Pokemon battle.
3
Griselle's Pokemon:
Lv. 59 Talonflame
Lv. 59 Camerupt
Lv. 60 Aerodactyl
Lv. 60 Metagross
Lv. 61 Pyroar
Griselle has a team of 5 Pokemon and leads with a Lv. 59 Talonflame followed by a Lv. 59 Camerupt, and a Lv. 60 Aerodactyl. Finally, she also has a Lv. 60 Metagross and Lv. 61 Pyroar that mega evolves into Mega Pyroar.

Four of Griselle's Pokemon are weak to Water-type Moves so bringing a Pokemon like Starmie will make this fight easy, while a backup Fire-type Pokemon like Charizard or Camerupt can handle Metagross.
4
Grisham and Griselle will heal your Pokemon after winning against her. Enter the abandoned Lysandre Cafe for a cutscene where Grisham discusses the history of Team Flare as well as the events of Pokemon X and Y.

After the cutscene, head inside the hidden passage to enter Lysandre Labs. Mable will then call you and ask you to look for the Elevator Key.
5
Make your way to the eastern side of the map and interact with the console glowing red to turn on the power in the labs and allow you to use the nearby warp panels.

Take the nearest Warp Panel to the proceed to the next area, then head north.

Catch or defeat the Manectric in this room and grab the Lab Key Card A from the computer.

Head back to the entrance and use the Key Card on the northwestern door to proceed to the next area.
6
Head to the southern part of the new area and interact with the console to turn on the power in the area and activate the nearby warp panels.

Take the now active Warp Panel to teleport to a small room with another Warp Panel. Enter the other Warp Panel to proceed to the next area.

Interact with the computer in this room to get the Lab Key Card B then return to the previous area where you activated the console.

Use the Key Card on the door to proceed to the next area.
7
Follow the path north and interact with the console to power up this section of the lab and activate the nearby warp panels.

Make your way to the nearby Warp Panel to telport to a small room with another Warp Panel. Enter the other Warp Panel to proceed to the next area.

There's an Alpha Arbok accompanied by some Ekans in the nearby large room. Defeat or capture it to safely explore this section of the lab.

Grab the Lab Key Card C from the computer in the northeastern part of the large room with the Alpha Arbok.

Head to the northeastern side of this section of the lab and use the Key Card on the door, then head north.

An Alpha Aegislash accompanied by two Honedge is in the northernmost room. You'll need to defeat or capture it to freely access the room.

Camerupt can trivialize this fight as it can damage Aegislash and the two Honedge with Earthquake at the same time.

Once the Alpha Aegislash is defeated, enter the room to the north and grab the Elevator Key from the computer.
8
Return to the lab entrance and use the Elevator Key on the Elevator, then go to B3F.

Note: B2F only has an EXP Candy L and is otherwise a dead end.

Enter the room to the north in B3F and read all four files. After reading all the files, Zygarde and L will appear in a short cutscene.

After the cutscene, use the elevator to head back to B1F and return to Lysandre Cafe.

Speak to Grisham for a cutscene where he requests you take AZ's Floette, and will ask you to return to Hotel Z and speak with the other members of Team MZ.

Enter the hotel and speak to AZ for a cutscene and learn more about his past.

He reveals that, in the past, he created a device and installed it in the Prism Tower, Ange, and is ultimately the source of the Rogue Mega Evolutions occurring throughout the city.
9
Once the cutscene ends, you need to earn a total of 45,000 Ticket Points to get a Challenge Ticket to fight Grisham in a Promotion Match.

Once you have the Challenge Ticket, head back to Nouveau Cafe and speak to Grisham in his food truck to challenge him.

Note: We recommend stocking up on Full Restores and Revives, as well as increasing your Pokemon's level to at least Lv. 65 before fighting Grisham.
How to Level Up Fast

Grisham's Pokemon:
Lv. 61 Pangoro
Lv. 61 Malamar
Lv. 61 Pyroar
Lv. 62 Tyranitar
Lv. 62 Salamence
Lv. 63 Charizard
Grisham has a full team of 6 Pokemon with well balanced typing and starts the fight with a Lv. 61 Pangoro followed by a Lv. 61 Malamar and Lv. 61 Pyroar. He'll then send out a Lv. 62 Tyranitar, a Lv. 62 Salamence, and finally a Lv. 63 Charizard that can mega evolve into Mega Charizard X.

Grisham's team doesn't have one weakness, but certain Pokemon are good to have in the fight. A strong Fairy-type Pokemon such as Gardevoir can handle both Pangoro, Malamar and Salamence, while Camerupt can hit Pyroar, Tyranitar, and Mega Charizard X with super effective Ground-type Moves.
How to Beat Grisham
11
Defeat all of Grisham's Pokemon and you'll rank up to A Rank. You'll also receive the TM for Flare Blitz as a reward, which also ends the mission after a short cutscene.
