help Pokémon Colosseum FAQ

How do you catch Pokémon in Pokémon Colosseum?

Unlike traditional games where you find wild Pokémon in tall grass, Colosseum requires you to snag Pokémon from other trainers. You play as Wes, a former criminal who uses a Snag Machine on his arm to steal corrupted Shadow Pokémon from villains to later purify.

What is the main story of Pokémon Colosseum?

The game takes place in the arid Orre region, where an evil organization called Cipher is capturing Pokémon and turning them into ruthless Shadow Pokémon. Wes, along with his partner Rui, sets out to dismantle Cipher's operations and rescue the Shadow Pokémon.

Can you transfer Pokémon from Pokémon Colosseum to Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire?

Yes, once you have purified a Shadow Pokémon in Colosseum, it becomes a normal Pokémon that can be traded to Generation III Game Boy Advance games like Ruby and Sapphire. This requires a GameCube to Game Boy Advance link cable.

Does Pokémon Colosseum have multiplayer battles?

Yes, the game features a robust multiplayer mode accessible via the Phenac City Colosseum or Battle Mode from the main menu. Players can rent Pokémon or use their own custom teams from the story mode to battle locally with up to four players on a single GameCube.
