Battles
| Pokémon Trainer | Remastered | Original Version |
|---|---|---|
| Diva Jessie | Pachirisu Lv. 28, Emolga Lv. 28 | not there |
| Diva Kloe | Oricorio Lv. 27, Plusle Lv. 27, Minun Lv. 27 | not there |

Strategy - Obviously a ground type Pokémon would be a great choice for this arena. A poison or steel type Pokémon avoids being poisoned by Galvantula, which is weak to Fire and Rock attacks. For the other Pokémon stick with ground attacks. Avoid a weakness to a fight attack with Zebstrika as it knows doublekick.
Remastered: A useful ground type pokemon for this battle is Sandygast, which you can catch in the grass on Route 7. Keep in mind that Emolga and Aloan Raichu will not take damage from Ground-Type attacks. Aloan Raichu is a dual Electric/Psychic type and is weak to bug, dark, and ghost attacks. Luxio also knows Ice Fang.
Reward - You win the Amp badge which enables you to use HM 03 Surf and the TM 24 Thunderbolt. In Remastered version, Nicole gives you TM 72 Volt Switch. (You can find TM 24 Thunderbolt in Omoth Powerplant.)
