Go west and open the Gate with an Electrify 1 from Voltorb. Go south and 3 pinchers are waiting for you with a Lairon and two Aron. The Lairon is agitated. They run off after the capture. Continue up the stairs.

On this floor, there will be strong winds which continously push you in one direction. If you fall off the platform you will end up here. Go south then east through the yellow path. Then go north, east and south to reach the stairs.

Go west and you see Raikou chasing the pinchers. Go north and get a Hitmonchan and go south then west and catch this one too. Use them to destroy the Huge Block to the east. Now one thing to remember is that you should catch as many Gligar as you can because you are going to need them.

Proceed and you see a conversation between some pinchers. Then Raikou appears and destroys the antenna. Then you get to catch Raikou. Use Ground type Poké Assists to make it easy. It's your second boss capture and it has its rage gauge full, so use Poké Assists as much as possible. The Gligar you caught may be useful here.

After the capture you will be prompted to register the symbol you see. Its Mission Clear. After you get down, you see that Burkhart has caught 2 pinchers, after a while they run away. So chase them.
