How to Find Shadow Pikachu

Shadow Pokemon are only found in two Pokemon games: "Pokemon Colosseum" and "Pokemon XD: Gales of Darkness," both released for the Nintendo Gamecube. Shadow Pokemon are different from regular Pokemon in the sense that they have a purple glow and do not always obey their trainers. Once you have caught a Shadow Pokemon, you can take it to the purification chamber to cleanse it and have it obey you. You can find a Pikachu in "Pokemon Colosseum" by using the bonus disc that came with the game. Unfortunately, it is only available on the Japanese bonus disc.

Things You'll Need

• "Pokemon Colosseum" Japanese bonus disc
• Game Boy Advance
