Reaching Rank B Walkthrough
Main Mission 30 Walkthrough
| Reaching Rank B Guide | |
|---|---|
| 1 |  After the cutscene, Lebanne encourages you to get a Challenge Ticket. You need to earn 41,000 Ticket Points to get the Challenger's Ticket to join Jacinthe's Tournament and fight her in a Promotion Match. The following Side Missions will be unlocked after this conversation: ∙ 86 - Who Messed Up the Garden? ∙ 87 - Becoming a Peerless Furfrou Trimmer ∙ 88 - The Nervous Novice Cabbie ∙ 89 - Up, Up, and Away After Emolga! ∙ 90 - Froslass's Unfinished Business |
| 2 |  Wait for night and battle trainers in Battle Zones to earn Ticket Points. Try to get Bonus Cards with increased points to maximize the amount of ticket points you earn when completing them. Note: You can sit on a bench during the day to pass the time so you can head into a Battle Zone again. ►How to Change Time to Night or Day |
| 3 |  Once you have the Challenge Ticket, fast travel to the Hotel Richissime on the northeastern side of the map. Note: We recommend getting your Pokemon to at least Lv. 60 to make the succeeding battles easier. ►How to Level Up Fast  Head inside and speak to Lebanne to get your photo taken so you can start Jacinthe's Tournament.  You'll need to defeat opponents each round to advance through the tournament and eventually challenge Jacinthe. Speak to Lebanne to start the tournament. |
| 4 |  Canari's Pokemon: Lv. 53 Heliolisk Lv. 54 Stunfisk Lv. 54 Ampharos Lv. 55 Eelektross Your first fight is against Canari and she'll start the fight with a Lv. 53 Heliolisk followed by a Lv. 54 Stunfisk, then a Lv. 54 Ampharos, and finally a Lv. 55 Eelektross that can mega evolve into Mega Eelektross. Sending out a strong Ground-type Pokemon can trivialize the fight with Canari thanks to their immunity to Electric-type Moves. Camerupt is a good choice since it has enough bulk to shrug off coverage moves, and can also mega evolve into Mega Camerupt. |
| 5 |  Ivor's Pokemon: Lv. 53 Heracross Lv. 54 Machamp Lv. 54 Medicham Lv. 55 Falinks Ivor is your next opponent and starts the fight with a Lv. 53 Heracross followed by a Lv. 54 Machamp, then a Lv. 54 Medicham, and finally a Lv. 55 Falinks that can mega evolve into Mega Falinks. We recommend using a strong Fairy-type Pokemon during this fight as Ivor's Pokemon has coverage moves against Flying-types. Gardevoir is a good choice since it has 4x resistance to Fighting-type moves thank to its dual typing and can also mega evolve into Mega Gardevoir. |
| 6 |  Corbeau's Pokemon: Lv. 54 Arbok Lv. 54 Roserade Lv. 55 Gyarados Lv. 56 Scolipede Corbeau is your next opponnent and starts the fight with a Lv. 54 Arbok and then a Lv. 54 Roserade, followed by a Lv. 55 Gyarados, and finally a Lv. 56 Scolipede that can mega evolve into Mega Scolipede. A powerful Psychic-type Pokemon with an Electric-type coverage move to deal with Gyarados can make this fight easier. Starmie is a good choice thanks to its high speed, access to Psychic-type Moves, and its ability to mega evolve into Mega Starmie. |
| 7 |  Speak to Jacinthe after the fight and a cutscene will play where your match is interrupted by Zygarde. You'll then need to battle Zygarde in its 50% Forme. Zygarde is weak against Dragon and Fairy-type Moves, and has 4x weakness against Ice-type Moves so send out a Pokemon that can use these moves to quickly defeat Zygarde. Note: You can't catch Zygarde during this fight!  Once defeated, Zygarde will revert to its 10% Forme and run off, and a L will explain that he'll help collect the remaining Zygarde cells so that Legendary Pokemon can achieve its Complete Forme. |
Rank C Promotion Match
| Jacinthe of the SBC | |
|---|---|
| 8 |  Jacinthe's Pokemon: Lv. 57 Carbink Lv. 58 Aurorus Lv. 58 Mawile Lv. 58 Gardevoir Lv. 59 Clefable After the cutscene, speak to Jacinthe to challenge her. She'll first send out a Lv. 57 Carbink followed by a Lv. 58 Aurorus, and then a Lv. 58 Mawile and Lv. 58 Gardevoir, and finally a Lv. 59 Clefable that can mega evolve into Mega Clefable. Pokemon that can use Steel-type Moves are great for this fight since almost all her Pokemon are weak to it. Excadrill is one of the best Pokemon to use against this fight since it can also use Ground-type Moves against Mawile and can mega evolve into Mega Excadrill, though take care as her Gardevoir and Clefable have Mystical Fire as a coverage move. ►How to Beat Jacinthe |
| 9 |  Defeat all of Jacinthe's Pokemon and you'll rank up to B Rank, and the mission will complete after getting the TM for Play Rough as a reward. |

Suggesting Mega Starmie for fighting Corbeau doesn't make sense, as the Rogue Mega Starmie fight (the only way you can get the mega stone) isn't until Main Mission 34.
