Description from IGDB IGDB

Pokemon XD is a sequel to the role-playing game Pokémon Colosseum. You'll play as Michael, a Pokémon trainer who is trying to thwart the evil Cipher. Cipher plans to control the world by using the powerful, but unpredictable, shadow Pokémon. Now you must fight back by collecting your own shadow Pokémon and beating Cipher's goons in battle. Pokémon XD also lets you import Pokémon from Game Boy Advance Pokémon games and participate in head-to-head battles with other players.

Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA

The main focus of the game, like its predecessor, is to fight and capture Shadow Pokémon. Shadow Pokémon are captured using the Snag Machine, identically to Pokémon Colosseum. There are 83 different Shadow Pokémon to collect. Shadow Pokémon come with Shadow-type moves, which, unlike moves of other types before the physical-special split in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, can be physical or special. These moves are strong against non-Shadow Pokémon, but weak against other Shadows. If the player fails to catch a Shadow Pokémon, there is a second chance available: at random points throughout the game, Miror B., an antagonist from the previous game, will appear with Shadow Pokémon that the player was not able to catch. Once a Shadow Pokémon is captured, the player needs to purify it. There are two different ways of purifying Pokémon: using the Purification Chamber, and carrying the Pokémon in the party until it can be purified. Pokémon XD also introduces "Poké Spots", where wild Pokémon may be captured after luring them there with bait, as well as two battle-style attractions at hosted at Realgam Tower: Battle SIMs, in which the player uses a pre-set Pokémon team in a puzzle-like battle challenge; and Battle Bingo, in which the player battles and captures Pokémon to strategically fill out a bingo card. Also featured is a multiplayer "Battle Mode" in which multiple players can battle with one another using Pokémon from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, Pokémon Emerald, and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
