This part, I enter Team Galactic's Warehouse and take on a bunch of Grunts, because my next task is to rescue the Lake Trio, who have been captured by Team Galactic to create the Red Chain, as their next task involves a mythical Pokémon, and I will have to take on Cyrus, the leader of Team Galactic.

As for the rest of the description, I recommend watching the full video before reading past this point of the description

I do like how they have that one Galactic Grunt that wants a Clefairy, I don't know if that is the same Grunt from back in Eterna City, because one of the stolen Pokémon from back then was a Clefairy. That Grunt will drop a Storage Key, which can be used to access the Galactic Warehouse, and that place has some really cool music, and there are a bunch of Galactic Grunts to fight, I find it very difficult to get over the fact they use the Wurmple line, specially this late in the game, this was also the case in the original games, in Platinum, they don't use the Wurmple line, they use a bunch of Dark-type Pokémon like Murkrow and Houndour.
There is a Dusk Stone you can pick up, which you can use to evolve Murkrow into Honchkrow, or Misdreavus into Mismagius. This place does have warp panels, and you do have to pick up the Galactic Key, allowing you to explore the base, there is the TM for Sludge Bomb, which is a good move if you are using Roserade or Gengar on your team, and there is the TM for Dazzling Gleam, which you can also buy at the Department Store, that did use to be Frustration in the original games, and there is the TM for Scald, which used to be Snatch, this is because those moves are not in these games. Scald is a nice move to have if you want a single target Water-type move, and it has a chance of burning the target, so that can be nice on some Water-type Pokémon you are using.
In Team Galactic HQ, there is one room with the beds, which you can use to heal up, and in Platinum, there would be a room where Cyrus would give a speech to a group of Galactic Grunts.
After getting through the warp panels and the Galactic Grunts, Cyrus is waiting at the 4th floor, and for some reason, his text box says "Boss" instead of "Cyrus", and in Platinum, you would have fought Cyrus at Celestic Town, but anyway, here is his team, and I like his battle theme.
Murkrow: Wing Attack, Night Shade, Assurance, Taunt
Golbat: Screech, Poison Fang, Air Cutter, Bite
Sneasel: Metal Claw, Icy Wind, Hone Claws, Beat Up (Sitrus Berry)

For being the leader of Team Galactic, Cyrus's team isn't anything special, they just have their basic level up moves, and all of his Pokémon have a weakness to Rock, so if you have a Rock-type Pokémon on your team, this is a very easy fight. Cyrus was a bit more tougher in Platinum, because he would have Crobat and Honchkrow in that fight.
After beating Cyrus, he gives you the Master Ball, and if you look up on his computer, it goes over the Red Chain, which is why Team Galactic wanted to capture the Lake Trio so they can create the Red Chain, and it can be used to shackle the mythical Pokémon, and by the way, the "M" is not capitalized, and this is not to be confused with the term Mythical Pokémon, and the Pokémon they are referencing is not Arceus, it is the Legendary Pokémon on the box for this game.
When you take the warp panel, we get some very unsettling music, and the scientists wonder if that was the right decision, and when you enter the room, you will find Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf sealed inside the containers, and Saturn explains about why the Lake Trio are captured, and if we want to save them, we have to battle him, here is his team.
Kadabra: Kinesis, Reflect, Psychic, Rain Dance (Damp Rock)
Bronzor: Confuse Ray, Payback, Gyro Ball, Extrasensory
Toxicroak: Mud-Slap, Toxic, Thief, Revenge

Saturn's team is the same as back at Lake Valor, the difference is his team has gained some levels since the last fight, and I don't know what happened to his Toxicroak in this game compared to the originals, because in the original games, Toxicroak had some excellent coverage moves like Feint Attack and X-Scissor, but this game it has Toxic and Mud-Slap, so that seems like a downgrade. Saturn is not too difficult, as we have fought him before, and this is the same team he had back then. After beating Saturn, press the button to free the Lake Trio, and Saturn will then tell you that Cyrus is planning something at Mount Coronet with the Red Chain, so our next destination is Mount Coronet.
