|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Travel to Coronet Highlands and head straight to the Moonview Arena fast travel point. |
| 2 | Talk to Melli and Calaba then enter the arena and capture the Lv70 Cresselia. Your directional controls will be reversed while the aura is active so hold the analog stick down to get near Cresselia. Once you're close enough, throw a Poke Ball or a Pokemon at it to break the barrier then throw a Pokemon to start the battle where you can finally catch it. |
| 3 | After capturing Cresselia, you will obtain the Dread Plate and complete the mission. |

The directional controls are reversed during your fight with Cresselia. We recommend closing in on her as quick as possible to stun her and get the controls back to normal again.

Before heading to Moonview Arena to capture Cresselia, we recommend preparing plenty Sticky Globs, Balls of Mud, or Spoiled Apricorns first.
Throw the items at Cresselia to stun it. Once it's stunned, perform a Back Strike and throw a Gigaton Ball at the Legendary Pokemon to catch it. Repeat the process until you catch Cresselia.

While engaging the Legendary Pokemon in a battle to lower its health seems like a good idea, it is not recommended because these Legendary Pokemon are strong and the battles can become very tough.
Save yourself the trouble of having to build a team just to catch the legendary Pokemon. It is much easier to catch it straight with Gigaton Balls or Ultra Balls once you have stunned them.
