{{type|Normal}} Pokémon will be completely immune to any of the Ghost-type attacks. {{type|Dark}} moves like {{m|Bite}} or {{m|Crunch}}, as well as your own Ghost-type moves like {{m|Shadow Ball}} (you should have picked up the [[TM]] for this move on Rt.210), are your best bet. Do not try launching any Normal-type (you should have known this already) or {{type|Ground}} attacks on Fantina's Pokémon, because their type or ability make those moves useless. Be careful that Leader Fantina's Pokémon have not only Ghost-type moves, that may catch your Pokémon off guard. Her {{p|Drifblim}} has {{m|Ominous Wind}} that may boost all of its stats after attacking. Her {{p|Gengar}} has {{m|Poison Jab}} that may poison your Pokémon after attacking and {{m|Spite}} to reduce PP of your Pokémon's last used move by 4. Fantina's strongest Pokémon {{p|Mismagius}} is at Level 36, and has {{m|Psybeam}} and {{m|Magical Leaf}}, which are {{type|Psychic}} and {{type|Grass}} moves respectively, so watch out. Note that Psybeam can cause confusion, while Magical Leaf never misses.

After that, leave the Gym. Cynthia will be waiting for you. She tells you that she has known what happened in Celestic Town, then talks about [[Team Galactic]], and suggests you going to [[Canalave City]] and visit [[Canalave Library]]. Afterwards, she will leave.
