'''Shadow Lugia''' (Japanese: '''ダークルギア''' ''Dark Lugia''), codenamed '''XD001''', is a [[Pokémon]] exclusive to [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]].
'''Shadow Lugia''' (Japanese: '''ダークルギア''' ''Dark Lugia''), codenamed '''XD001''', is a {{p|Lugia}} that has had the door to its heart shut by the criminal syndicate [[Cipher]], believed to be the ultimate [[Shadow Pokémon]] and completely immune to purification. Its [[form]] is different from that of a normal Lugia. Unlike other Shadow Pokémon who appear normal but possess a shadowy aura, Shadow Lugia has jagged silver eye-spikes, a dark-purple body with white undersides, and glowing red eyes. It also has sharper toes that resemble claws, as well as a longer, more pointed tongue.

After snagging the Lugia and defeating Greevil, Michael will find that Lovrina was apparently correct — Shadow Lugia cannot be purified through using it in battle, massaging it with [[Scent]]s, keeping it in the active party, or by any other normal means. However, the [[Purify Chamber]], the ultimate creation of Michael's father and [[Professor Krane]], will be able to purify Shadow Lugia if all nine of the Sets within it are at maximum tempo.

Shadow Lugia was featured in the TCG as a promotional card. The English version was given out to attendants of the Nintendo Pre Electronic Entertainment Expo conference. This card was also distributed at the {{wp|Nintendo World Store}} in {{wp|New York}} in October 2005. This card was released as a Jumbo card and was therefore not legal to use in tournaments or official events. It has an unusual 300 HP and its only attack, {{m|Shadow Storm}}, has an incredible 1000 damage (tied with [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Category:Pok%C3%A9mon_cards_with_attack_damage_1000|various other promotional cards] for the highest amount of damage on any printed card without counting damage modifiers). It uses the same artwork as it does on the box art of Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.

Battle]] in {{OBP|Battle Mode|Colosseum}} without changing the [[party]] for the entire challenge.
