The Lab on Poco Path is the place where you will take on the challenge from Arven, the last mission in the Path of Legends. This is a battle against Arven.

The Lab on Poco Path - Preparation:

The recommended level for this challenge is level 63. You will want to use Bug, Fairy, Fighting, Flying, Grass, or Rock type moves.

The Lab on Poco Path - Location:

For this challenge you want to head to the Lighthouse on Poco Path. After going in, there will be a cutscene that will give you more information on Area Zero and will tell you about the next mission that you need to do. You will have to go into the depths of Area Zero and deliver the book that Arven has been getting his information from during your missions with the Titans.

Arven will ask you if you will go and that he wants to come along but wants to test his skills first to see if he is strong enough to accompany you. This is where the battle will ensue.

The Lab on Poco Path - Battle Against Arven:

Arven will have a full team. He will have a level 58 Greedent (Normal type), level 61 Toedscruel (Ground/Grass type), level 62 Garganacl (Rock type), level 60 Scovillain (Grass/Fire type), level 59 Cloyster (Water/Ice type), and a level 63 Mabosstiff (Dark type). Looks like all those Herba Mystica did the trick and got Mabosstiff back to good health.

For Greedent, you should use Fighting moves. For Toedscruel, use Flying, Ice, or Bug moves. Garganacl is weak to Rock, Fighting, Grass, or Water moves. For Scovillain, use Flying or Rock type moves. Cloyster will also be weak to Fighting, Rock, and Grass moves as well as Electric moves. Then finally is Mabosstiff, Arven will use his Tera Orb on it. You will want to use Fighting, Bug, or Fairy type moves.

Now that you have defeated Arven, he will tell you that you are going to need to recruit some more people if you want to be able to go into Area Zero. This suggests that you need to take on the last 2 remaining challenges before Area Zero. Next up is the Team Star's Final Boss.
