Chapter 10: Final Showdown
N's Castle
Walk forward to the statue at the center of the room. A moving platform here has now been activated that will take you down to the champion. Walk up the long set of stairs and you will eventually reach Champion Alder who already has his hands full with N. All hell will break loose and N will summon his castle which will emerge from the ground. Cheren will then show up, having also defeated the elite four, to give you and Alder some encouragement. Head up the long black stairs to enter N's Castle.
When you reach the top of the stairs in the castle, six of Team Plasma's sages will be waiting for you. Just when it appears they will stop you, Unova's gym leaders show up to save the day. With the sages taken care of, you can continue ahead and up the stairs to the right in the castle. In this next hall, you can enter the room on the left and speak to the lady with pink hair to heal your team. In the room on the right, you can find a Max Potion. Head up the stairs to the next hallway.
On this floor, the first room on the right has a PC you can use to switch out your team if you'd like. In the middle room you can find a Max Revive. In the room on the left you can speak to the left grunt for an Ultra Ball and the right grunt will teleport you back to the Pokémon Center at the Pokémon League. Continue up the next set of stairs.
On the next floor you can enter the room on the left, which appears to be N's childhood room, and find a Rare Candy. In the middle room you can find a Full Restore. There is nothing of interest in the right room. Head up the next set of stairs. When you try to enter the main room, you will be stopped by Ghetsis. He will give one final speech shedding more light on the details of his plans before allowing you through.
Zekrom and Reshiram
The next room is N's throne room. Walk ahead to initiate the final showdown. N will summon Zekrom/Reshiram and it appears that this is just what your light/dark stone needed to activate. Reshiram (Black) or Zekrom (White) will then appear and you'll have an opportunity to catch it. You can use your master ball if you'd like, but they aren't too difficult to catch with the normal process of applying a status condition, lowering their health, and using ultra balls.
Final Showdown
After you have caught the titular legendary it's time for your battle with N. He will start things off hot with his Lv. 52 Zekrom/Reshiram. He also uses a Lv. 50 Carracosta, a Lv. 50 Vanilluxe, a Lv. 50 Klinklang, a Lv. 50 Zoroark, and a Lv. 50 Archeops. He has a couple Full Restores at his disposal as well. You'll automatically start with your new legendary at the front of your party, so the most important thing is to quickly take out his using your Dragon-type moves. After that it's a straightforward battle, although he probably is overleveled compared to you. You'll have to use type advantages to make up for that.
After you defeat N, a very dissapointed Ghetsis will emerge. He will reveal himself as the true leader of Team Plasma with the goal of ruling the world. You'll need to defeat him in battle now, luckily your team will be fully healed before you do. Ghetsis uses a Lv. 52 Cofagrigus, a Lv. 52 Bouffalant, a Lv. 52 Bisharp, a Lv. 52 Seismitoad, a Lv. 52 Eelektross, and a Lv. 54 Hydreigon. The Bouffalant may prove to be the biggest challenge of this fight, as it knows a few very powerful moves that are likely to OHKO your team. But his entire team is no joke, he will likely be overleved and present a tough battle. You'll probably need to make use of some of the items we've been gathering to make it through.
After the battle Alder and Cheren will remove Ghetsis and you will have a heart-to-heart with N who is realizing he has been manipulated by a very unhinged Ghestsis. He accepts that he was misguided and wishes you good luck and names you as the true hero! This is the end of the main story of Pokémon Black/White so sit back and let the credits roll. However, the adventure is far from over...
