Your next opponent, [[Phoebe]], is a specialist in the {{t|Ghost}} type. {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon are completely immune to Ghost-types moves, while Dark- and {{t|Steel}}-type Pokémon resist Ghost attacks. Ghost-types are weak to Ghost- and Dark-type attacks. Don't use {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon, as they are weak to Ghost (unless their second Type is Steel, as in the case of the {{p|Metagross}} family).

Phoebe sends out her Level 48 {{p|Dusclops}} first. It knows {{m|Curse}}, which will lower its health by half, and causes a Pokémon hit by it to lose 25% of its health every turn until it faints or the battle ends. Dusclops also knows {{m|Confuse Ray}} to Confuse your Pokémon, {{m|Protect}} to block your attacks, and {{m|Shadow Punch}} to attack. Hit Dusclops with a Dark- or Ghost-type move to get it out of your way. it has massive defensive stats, so it might be harder than you expect. Next, Phoebe has two Level 49 Bannette, both of which know the powerful Ghost attack {{m|Shadow Ball}}. One has {{m|Grudge}}, {{m|Will-O-Wisp}}, and {{m|Faint Attack}} as its other three moves, and the other knows {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Psychic}}, and {{m|Facade}}. These two aren't especially hard to defeat, although Will-O-Wisp causes a burn if it hits, Grudge can be annoying, and Facade can hit hard due to Bannette's high Attack stat. Don't paralyze, poison, or burn either Bannette because it's hard to tell which one you're after. Facade doubles in power if the user is affected by a major status condition. An interesting Pokémon you'll have to deal with is {{p|Sableye}}, which has ''no weakness''. It has {{m|Double Team}} to boost its evasiveness, so knock it out as quickly as you can before things get annoying. Any move that isn't Normal, Fighting, Psychic, or Poison will deal normal damage to Sableye, which has stats that aren't the greatest. The most dangerous Pokémon on Phoebe's team is her quite dangerous Level 51 Dusclops. It's hard to knock out due to its massive defensive stats, and it knows very powerful attacks: {{m|Ice Beam}}, {{m|Shadow Ball}}, {{m|Rock Slide}}, and {{m|Earthquake}}. With this one, go all-out with your best Ghost and Dark attacks until you've knocked it out.
Once you've defeated Phoebe, heal up your team and continue on to the next room.
