The last two battles of the story follow one another with no return to a Pokémon Center: N and his legendary dragon, then Ghetsis and his Hydreigon. Well prepared, they are far from insurmountable. Here is how to approach them, Pokémon by Pokémon.

A reminder of the context: in N’s Castle, you have just caught your version’s dragon at level 50. N heals your team before the battle, but nothing will heal you between N and Ghetsis. This guide tells you what to prepare before pushing open the door of the throne room.

The recommended level is 52 to 55 for your six Pokémon. Below that, Ghetsis becomes truly dangerous.
