Main Mission 40 Walkthrough
| The One That Gives Guide | |
|---|---|
| 1 |  Fast travel to the Pokemon Research Lab and take the elevator up to Mable's office for a cutscene. |
| 2 |  Mable will give you three "special research tasks" where you need to defeat or capture Alpha Pokemon that are likely related to "The One That Gives". The first one is an Alpha Steelix in Wild Zone 3. Upon arriving in front of the Wild Zone, you'll immediately spot the target at the very center. It's best to use Fighting or Water-type Pokemon here as it can use Ground-type Moves, which puts Fire Type Pokemon at a disadvantage. |
| 3 |  Rest up at a Pokemon Center and head next to Wild Zone 5. Go to the west side of the zone to find a small grassy area with an Alpha Gallade standing in the middle. Take it down with a Fairy-type like Gardevoir for an easier battle. |
| 4 |  Heal your injured Pokemon again at the Pokemon Center then head to Wild Zone 9 next. From the southeast entrance, go left past the battle court and smash the rocks blocking the path below the scaffolding.  Right where the path splits into two, look on your left to find a tall ladder. Climb it to the top to find an Alpha Pangoro.  You can still use Gardevoir here as Pangoro is weak to Fairy-type Moves. But, be careful as this Alpha Pangoro can use Poison Jab. |
| 5 |  Return to Mable in the Pokemon Research Lab to have her analyze the data. With it, she'll actually be able to pinpoint the location where Xerneas might appear. Neat! |
| 6 |  Fast travel to Wild Zone 11 and enter it through one of the northern gates. Investigate the marked spot by the stream and Xerneas will appear. Interact with it to start the fight.  Xerneas is a pure Fairy-type and is weak to Poison and Steel Moves. Wear it down and capture it to complete the mission. If you fail to capture it, you can retry as many times as needed until it is caught. |
