Lysandre Labs Raid
After leaving Frost Cavern, a Holo Clip from Lysandre interrupts you — he announces his plans publicly. Fly back to Lumiose, head to Lysandre Café, and check the bookshelf behind the waitress. The hidden door is now open. Lysandre Labs is a 4-floor elevator dungeon with all five Team Flare Scientists + Lysandre himself.
