Welcome to the complete guide to Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, on the Nintendo GameCube.

Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness is the first true big 3D Pokémon RPG, and it is a success. It is long, gripping, rich and beautiful… so much so that you can get lost in it, and a guide seemed necessary.
So here is the Pokémon XD guide, in the hope that it can, and it would be a source of pride, help you at least a little. We have done our best to answer the game’s big questions and follow its main “lines”.
