Challenge Battle

Challenge Battle (Japanese: チャレンジバトル Challenge Battle) is an area that is only available after defeating the game in Pokémon Rumble U. There are four stages in this area, each with different unlock conditions that must be met before the stage can be played.

Lord of the Bugs

Challenges

• • Defeat the Boss.
  • Use Darkrai.
  • Clear the battle within 25 seconds.
  • Achieve a combo of 25 or more.
  • Use Fusion Bolt and Fusion Flare together.

Clearing the challenges allows the player to obtain a blue capsule containing a Genesect.

Pokémon

This area has a unique battle structure. When the player enters, there is an immediate warning followed by the arrival of one of the fully evolved Bug Pokémon. These include Beautifly, Dustox, Wormadam (all three cloaks), Mothim, Yanmega, Escavalier, Accelgor, and Galvantula. Only one boss appears; that boss is always supported both by its lower evolutions and by Shedinja. The ultimate Bug Pokémon, Genesect, is the challenge reward.
