After unlocking Hyperspace Mission 3, you can find Adver located underneath the bridge leading to the eastern entrance of Wild Zone 17. Speak with him to start the side mission.
| Armor | Pokemon |
|---|---|
| Auspicious Armor |
Armarouge
|
| Malicious Armor |
Ceruledge

You’ll have two Armor options from Adver: the Auspicious Armor, which evolves Charcadet into Armarouge, and the Malicious Armor, which evolves Charcadet into Ceruledge.

We recommend getting the Malicious Armor for Ceruledge, as it will have type advantage against Armarouge in the upcoming duel. Both Pokemon are weak to Ghost-type moves, giving Ceruledge a better fighting chance.
Beyond the matchup, Ceruledge is a good evolution choice for it's high Atk. and Speed, as well as having access to Bitter Blade, which provides excellent sustain.
However, if you prefer Armarouge's more defensive capabilities, you may opt to get the Auspicious Armor instead and obtain the Malicious Armor later on.

Do note that you can only choose one Armor to keep from this side mission. Whichever Armor you opted out of can still be obtained later on, although it's a rare drop acquired from destroying floating Pokeballs in Rank 5 Hyperspace Wild Zones.

If you do not have a Charcadet already, you may take the time to capture one for yourself through a Rank 2 Hypserspace Wild Zone. If there are none on your map, you may reroll them by passing time on a bench until a Rank 2 Hyperspace Wild Zone housing a Charcadet appears.
How to Reroll Hyperspace Wild Zones

Once you obtain a Charcadet, hand it either the Auspicious Armor or Malicious Armor to evolve it into Armarouge or Ceruledge respectively. There is no need to increase its level immediately, as the side mission will be completed even if you lose against Adver.
Armarouge Armarouge Level 60 |
Ceruledge Ceruledge Level 60 |
Begin the battle against Adver with only an Armarouge or Ceruledge in your team. He will be fighting against you with a Level 60 Armarouge or Ceruledge, depending on which Armor you opted out of.
If you picked Ceruledge, you'll have better type advantage against his Armarouge. Regardless of the battle's outcome, the side mission will be completed afterwards and grant you the mission rewards!
