They are poor creatures captured by the criminal organization Team Cipher to brainwash and darken their hearts.

Colosseum and Completing Game Quests

The turn-based battles have made the brand of the Pokemon franchise. The matches in the desert will take place in the Colosseum. The screen will switch to a turn-based view as battles begin, and you'll control your Pokemon to attack your opponents by activating their special moves. Each trainer can carry up to 6 Pokemon at a time, and the trainer can choose another creature to fight when the previous Pokemon is destroyed. You will win if you destroy all of your opponent's Pokemon. 

The most special feature of Pokemon Colosseum, as mentioned, is that players can snag Pokemon from other trainers using special Pokeballs. Only "Dark Pokémon" can be stolen by trainers, as their hearts are already dead when tamed by Team Cipher, and they only react to the power of the Pokeballs. 

More specifically, the energy bar of shadow Pokemon will be depleted when fighting, and the lower this energy bar, the more they will obey the player. Once the purple energy bar is depleted, you can "Purify" shadow Pokémon and return them to normal by taking them to Celebi's shrine in Agate Village and using the rare "Time Flute" item. If you use Shadow Pokemon in battle without purging them first, they will occasionally enter "Hyper Mode," which causes them to disobey the player's character or attack the opponent in an uncontrolled way.

Finally, the game also introduces attractive game modes in addition to the classic Colosseum mode. The "Quick Battle" mode allows players to battle their CPU trainer or friends with randomly assigned Pokemon. In addition, the "Gang Battle" mode allows up to four players to compete in a tournament, and the winners are Poke Coupons or new Pokemon.
