After recovering a Partner Pokémon, [[Pachirisu]], at the beach, the player begins his/her first major mission by patrolling a nearby cave. The Pokémon inside the cave are unusually aggressive and resistant to capture by the Ranger's styler. At the back of the cave, the player finds a strange machine (later called a [[Gigaremo]]) that appears to be controlling the Pokémon. The rangers promptly destroy the device, freeing the Pokémon, and begin researching its abilities. Subsequently, the rangers discover that the Gigaremos are being set up by Team Dim Sun, suggesting wider criminal activities. The player travels to the Ranger Union, the headquarters of all Ranger operations in Almia, to warn the Rangers about the Gigaremo. On the way, the player sees [[Altru Inc.]], a powerful oil company that is building a massive tower in the center of the Almia region. | After recovering a Partner Pokémon, [[Pachirisu]], at the beach, the player begins his/her first major mission by patrolling a nearby cave.

After going into the forest, the player will have to capture a {{p|Blastoise}} and use its {{m|Rain Dance}} move to douse the fire. Afterwards, the player is congratulated on how well he or she has done, and can progress onto the city on the other end of the Vien Forest-[[Pueltown]]. | ||
A few days later, the player is sent on a mission to retrieve his/her missing team leader, [[Barlow]]. Barlow was last seen in [[Boyleland]] investigating a volcanic cave. The player will have to go to Pueltown and take a boat to Boyleland. Deep inside the cave, the player finds members of Team Dim Sun deploying new Miniremo devices to control all of the Pokémon on the island. The player dodges the guards and learns that Barlow has been captured and is being placed on a ship along with the Pokémon. The player sneaks on board, locates Barlow, and the two launch an assault on the ship's bridge. Although Barlow's Styler is destroyed in the ensuing attack, the player forces Team Dim Sun, including its leader, Mr. Kincaid, to abandon the ship, saving all of Boyleland's Pokémon. The ship crashes into the yard of the Ranger School, never to sail again. | A few days later, the player is sent on a mission to retrieve his/her missing team leader, [[Barlow]].

Recognizing the threat posed by Team Dim Sun, the Ranger Union promptly promotes the player to the rank of [[Top Ranger]]. At the Union, the player discovers that Keith has also been promoted to Top Ranger, and that Rhythmi has achieved her dream of becoming a Top Operator, where she serves as the player's guide.

At the Union, the player discovers that Keith has also been promoted to Top Ranger, and that Rhythmi has achieved her dream of becoming a Top Operator, where she serves as the player's guide. During the player's first mission as a Top Ranger, he or she helps another Top Ranger, named [[Sven]], to investigate a Dim Sun mining operation in the Chroma Ruins, east of the Ranger Union. They discover that Dim Sun is searching for dark crystals for powering the Gigaremo devices. | ||
After defeating a {{p|Spiritomb}}, they also discover a massive hole, apparently left from removing the legendary "Shadow Crystal" whose current location is unknown. While studying the dark crystal retrieved from a captured Gigaremo, several Union workers accidentally discover that the crystals can be neutralized by a set of red, blue, and yellow [[shard]]s. The player and Keith go on to separately collect the sources of these shards; the blue gem from Almia Castle, the red gem from Boyle Volcano, and the yellow gem from the [[Hippowdon Temple]]. Although the player takes both the blue and red gems, Keith is captured by a member of Team Dim Sun's [[Sinis Trio]], who uses him to blackmail the player into surrendering the yellow gem. | After defeating a {{p|Spiritomb}}, they also discover a massive hole, apparently left from removing the legendary "Shadow Crystal" whose current location is unknown.
