Here's some trivia relating this: Mijumaru is one of two starter Pokémon to have a National Pokédex number that is divisible by 100, the other being Turtwig. --[[User:Poppy Appletree|Poppy Appletree]] 17:28, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

::First, do not reply to old comments. Second, you're actually wrong. Piplup is 393, Chimchar is 390, and Turtwig is 387. 400 is Bibarel.

== Trivia ==

Mijumaru is the first Water-type starter based on a mammal. The others were reptiles, with the exception of Piplup, a bird. --[[User:MegaTroopX|MegaTroopX]]
:Mudkip wasn't a reptile though, it's amphibian-like as it was based on mudskippers or axolotl. But I guess that doesn't matter... [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 03:13, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Actually, mudskippers are fish. [[User:Poisson14|Poisson14]] 05:25, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
:Okay, my bad, but they're still amphibian. Point is, Mudkip is not reptilian. [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 16:36, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Amphibians are not fish, nor are fish amphibians, though I do see what you are trying to say. [[User:Poisson14|Poisson14]] 08:12, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

== Name ==
Where does the name come from? [[User:Eddie Blake|Eddie Blake]] 15:11PM, 13 May 2010

Mijuku means immature, and maru means round, or ball. {{unsigned|Don't Hug Lucario!}}

Should someone add that, or are we waiting? [[User:Poisson14|Poisson14]] 05:25, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

:If I may add, the 'maru' in its name could be a reference to its round head. However I think I recall that 'maru' can also mean boy, which could be a reference that most starters have a higher chance of being male, but that meaning is probably less likely. [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 21:11, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
::"丸" (まる, ''maru'') means "circle". The other two B&W starters have speculations such as this already added into the name origin section on their pages... someone should add this one in. --[[User:FrozenPandaMan|FrozenPandaMan]] 23:09, 14 May 2010 (UTC) Oh, and 未熟 (みじゅく, ''mijuku'') does indeed mean immature. --[[User:FrozenPandaMan|FrozenPandaMan]] 00:51, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
:::Name origin currently lists 'mizu'. Can an admin add the extra about 'mijuku' please? [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 06:07, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
:The ending "maru" is also a suffix of many Japanese ships {{unsigned|Snozzardi}}

Another possibility: {{wp|Ring of Bright Water}} is a novel/movie about a man who finds and adopts an otter named Mijbil, nicknamed Mij. Phonetically, Mijbil would likely be ''Mijubiru'', with Mij being ''Miju''. Add the common name suffix -maru for distinct distancing (re: Abra line Japanese name controversy). It can't be a coincidence. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 22:53, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

==Physiology for the admins to implement==
Mijumaru is a bipedal sea otter-like Pokémon, primarily light blue, dark blue, and white in coloration. Mijumaru has a rounded, spherical white head, with small, triangular dark-blue ears to the sides. Mijumaru’s eyes are large, dark, and ovular in shape; its dark-orange nose is shaped like an oval tilted to the side. Mijumaru also possesses speckles to the sides of its face, most likely meant to be a stylistic implication of short whiskers in the common manner of cartoon canines, and light blue bubble-esque features composing a “collar” around its neck. Mijumaru’s torso is light blue, and decorated with a pale yellow seashell feature in the center. Its small, digit-less and somewhat rounded arms are white in coloration, with its feet---having, unlike its forearms, discernible digits---colored dark blue. Mijumaru also possesses a slightly plank-shaped dark blue tail. (I should facilitate my efforts before other persons fill in Physiology sections before me...)

==Evolution==
Mijumaru's evolutions name is Rakonosua (ラコノスア) Originating from rakka meaning Sea Otter in japanese - ''unsigned comment from {{u|Vkickass}} ([[User talk:Vkickass|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Vkickass|contribs]]) ''
:Is this from the anime beta art? [[User:Turtwig A|Turtwig's]] [[Turtwig (Pokémon)|A-B-Cs]] ([[User talk:Turtwig A|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Turtwig A|contribs]]) 23:17, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
::What source did you get this name from? [[User:Sorou|NEOgreenSOROU]] 02:26, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
the beta art, it took a little effort to read it, and i thought that it would be terribly wrong, but it ended up making sense[[User:Vkickass|Vkickass]] 01:32, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
:::It says ラコノスケ (Rakonosuke), not ラコノスア (Rakonosua) on the chart and seeing as how ツタージャ (Tsutarja) is nicknamed アイビー (Ivy) there, there is no guarantee that Rakonosuke is it's actual name and not a nickname. It would fit with Mijumaru especially considering that -maru is a Japanese male name suffix just as -(no)suke is, but the problem is that it could just be a nickname so It's best to just wait :/ ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 01:45, 22 July 2010 (UTC))

speaking of it's evolution I came across a (fake or not who knows...) gif of it's evo..I'm willing to bet it came from that black and white demo ([[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 17:28, 18 July 2010 (UTC))

== Questions ==

First question, why does Mijumaru's evolutions show up as the hack L? Shouldn't it show up as question marks? Putting it up as L might just confuse some people. Second question, how do you edit pages again? I noticed that there was no little "edit" at the end of each section so i was wondering. I was going to say that the feet resembled an otter's flippers. Thanks. [[User:Sorou|NEOgreenSOROU]] 22:41, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
:To answer your questions, we don't have sprites for it's evolutions, that's why it shows up as a glitch. I don't know why it would confuse people, unless you really believe it evolves into a glitch Pokémon. Secondly, you can't edit this page because it's protected, like all new Pokémon pages. If you want something added then discuss it on it's talk page. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jel]][[User Talk:Jello|lo]] 22:44, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
::Oh ok thanks. Yeah the L doesn't confuse me but it might confuse another random person who knows ziltch about pokemon. So, lets discuss it now, I was thinking of adding in the info that its feet resemble an otter's flippers, who's for it? [[User:Sorou|NEOgreenSOROU]] 22:48, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

== About its National number ==

Yes. We know. {{p|Victini}} is #000 in the Isshu dex. This means nothing right now about its National number. Think of it this way: they put Victini at #000 so that you'd not know right off the bat getting it how many other Pokémon there are to find, especially given that it's gonna be an early event, like Manaphy. If you got Mew just after you got your starter in RBY, you'd know there's 151 Pokémon in Kanto. Same with Celebi in GSC, Deoxys in RSE, and so on. This is a failsafe to make Pokémon feel less like "let's see how many they added" and more like "oh, there's so many of these things, I wonder what they all are...". Sure, futile anyway, given that we'll likely have access to the games and have figured out everything by the day after it comes out... but still. An admirable solution to that huge-empty-Pokédex problem we've had since Gen I.

Mijumaru, until further notice, is staying at #500. We cannot assume anything different than it being seventh after Arceus, just as Totodile is seventh after Mew, Mudkip is seventh after Celebi, and Piplup is seventh after Deoxys.

Where does the name come from? [[User:Eddie Blake|Eddie Blake]] 15:11PM, 13 May 2010

Mijuku means immature, and maru means round, or ball. {{unsigned|Don't Hug Lucario!}}

Should someone add that, or are we waiting? [[User:Poisson14|Poisson14]] 05:25, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

:If I may add, the 'maru' in its name could be a reference to its round head. However I think I recall that 'maru' can also mean boy, which could be a reference that most starters have a higher chance of being male, but that meaning is probably less likely. [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 21:11, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
::"丸" (まる, ''maru'') means "circle".

:The ending "maru" is also a suffix of many Japanese ships {{unsigned|Snozzardi}}

Another possibility: {{wp|Ring of Bright Water}} is a novel/movie about a man who finds and adopts an otter named Mijbil, nicknamed Mij. Phonetically, Mijbil would likely be ''Mijubiru'', with Mij being ''Miju''. Add the common name suffix -maru for distinct distancing (re: Abra line Japanese name controversy).

==Physiology for the admins to implement==
Mijumaru is a bipedal sea otter-like Pokémon, primarily light blue, dark blue, and white in coloration. Mijumaru has a rounded, spherical white head, with small, triangular dark-blue ears to the sides. Mijumaru’s eyes are large, dark, and ovular in shape; its dark-orange nose is shaped like an oval tilted to the side. Mijumaru also possesses speckles to the sides of its face, most likely meant to be a stylistic implication of short whiskers in the common manner of cartoon canines, and light blue bubble-esque features composing a “collar” around its neck. Mijumaru’s torso is light blue, and decorated with a pale yellow seashell feature in the center. Its small, digit-less and somewhat rounded arms are white in coloration, with its feet---having, unlike its forearms, discernible digits---colored dark blue. Mijumaru also possesses a slightly plank-shaped dark blue tail. (I should facilitate my efforts before other persons fill in Physiology sections before me...)

==Evolution==
Mijumaru's evolutions name is Rakonosua (ラコノスア) Originating from rakka meaning Sea Otter in japanese - ''unsigned comment from {{u|Vkickass}} ([[User talk:Vkickass|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Vkickass|contribs]]) ''

:::It says ラコノスケ (Rakonosuke), not ラコノスア (Rakonosua) on the chart and seeing as how ツタージャ (Tsutarja) is nicknamed アイビー (Ivy) there, there is no guarantee that Rakonosuke is it's actual name and not a nickname. It would fit with Mijumaru especially considering that -maru is a Japanese male name suffix just as -(no)suke is, but the problem is that it could just be a nickname so It's best to just wait :/ ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 01:45, 22 July 2010 (UTC))

== Questions ==

First question, why does Mijumaru's evolutions show up as the hack L? Shouldn't it show up as question marks? Putting it up as L might just confuse some people. Second question, how do you edit pages again? I noticed that there was no little "edit" at the end of each section so i was wondering. I was going to say that the feet resembled an otter's flippers. Thanks. [[User:Sorou|NEOgreenSOROU]] 22:41, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
:To answer your questions, we don't have sprites for it's evolutions, that's why it shows up as a glitch. I don't know why it would confuse people, unless you really believe it evolves into a glitch Pokémon. Secondly, you can't edit this page because it's protected, like all new Pokémon pages.

== About its National number ==

Yes. We know. {{p|Victini}} is #000 in the Isshu dex. This means nothing right now about its National number. Think of it this way: they put Victini at #000 so that you'd not know right off the bat getting it how many other Pokémon there are to find, especially given that it's gonna be an early event, like Manaphy. If you got Mew just after you got your starter in RBY, you'd know there's 151 Pokémon in Kanto. Same with Celebi in GSC, Deoxys in RSE, and so on. This is a failsafe to make Pokémon feel less like "let's see how many they added" and more like "oh, there's so many of these things, I wonder what they all are...". Sure, futile anyway, given that we'll likely have access to the games and have figured out everything by the day after it comes out... but still. An admirable solution to that huge-empty-Pokédex problem we've had since Gen I.

Mijumaru, until further notice, is staying at #500. We cannot assume anything different than it being seventh after Arceus, just as Totodile is seventh after Mew, Mudkip is seventh after Celebi, and Piplup is seventh after Deoxys.

The English name for it is Oshawott, as said on the official site. It's [[User:Turtwig A|Turtwig A]]! [[User talk:Turtwig A|My talk]] or [[Special:Contributions/Turtwig A|wiki edits]] 23:07, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Originwise... surely it's a sort of spoonerism of "Ottawosh?" "Otter" and "Wash," but with the syllables mixed up. [[User:Constantmotion|Constantmotion]] 23:13, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

:Really? I could have thought it was a mix of "ocean" (or at least the way it sounds), and "water"+"otter", shortened, obviously. [[User:Omnis|Omnis]] 00:03, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
:: I'm pretty sure Oshawott is a combination of ''{{wp|Oshawa}}'', a city in Ontario Canada, and ''Otter''. It's also possibly a pun of ''"Ocean water"''. [[User:Ninterror|Ninterror]] 01:14, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

*should it be a trivia that Oshawatt is the only obtainable starter that starts with a vowel.[[User:Ashanddawn4evr|Ashanddawn4evr]] 00:55, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

*Somehow I don't think this should go under "Pokemon with unknown English names" anymore. >_> -[[User:57|[[User:57|5]][User talk:57|7]]]] 01:27, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

'''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team''' and '''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Blue Rescue Team''' are a matched pair of [[Pokémon games]] for the [[Game Boy Advance]] and [[Nintendo DS]], respectively. These two games were developed by Chunsoft and were published by [[Nintendo]]. They were released in Japan on November 17, 2005, and were released in the U.S. on September 18, 2006.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon starts with the player as a human who is turned into a [[Pokémon]]. A series of questions at the start of the game determines what Pokémon the player becomes.

When the player first discovers that they are a Pokémon, they will first meet their partner who also happens to be a Pokémon. The journey begins with the player going out to find a lost {{p|Caterpie}}. Once this first quest is done, the journey begins in earnest.

All Pokémon from [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}}, {{gen|II}}, and {{gen|III}} are available in this game; all may be battled and befriended as the player ventures across the land and into various dungeons.

The games have received adaptations in other formats through the anime episode ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]'' and the manga series ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Ginji's Rescue Team]]''.

The game has been successful enough to have three sequels. [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] were released on the Nintendo DS in 2007/2008, [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|a third game to the pair]] was released in 2009, and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)|a trio of games]] for the WiiWare was released on August 4th, 2009 in Japan.

==Gameplay==
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon is an adaptation of the {{wp|Fushigi no Dungeon}} games for Pokémon. Like the main Pokémon RPGs, it has two gameplay modes; unlike the main RPGs, battle mode and dungeon mode are not distinct. It is a semi-turn-based game, with each step, attack, or item use being counted as a single turn.

The size of a party is limited to four in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, compared to six in the main RPGs; furthermore, players are only able to directly control one Pokémon: their own character (or, later in the game, any other befriended Pokémon). The player's teammates are essentially autonomous, with player control being limited to general strategy such as avoiding Pokémon battles or not moving and staying in one place.

==Plot==
{{spoilers}}
===Main story===
* The player wakes up one day in the Pokémon world, as a human turned into a Pokémon.
* This world is suffering an imbalance in nature, with natural disasters occurring everywhere.
* The player and their partner form a rescue team after successfully rescuing {{p|Caterpie}} from [[Tiny Woods]].
* Soon after, they rescue two {{p|Magnemite}} from [[Thunderwave Cave]], one of which joins the team.
* [[Team Meanies]] steal the requests for help from the player's mailbox. The team rescues a {{p|Metapod}} who is stuck at [[Sinister Woods]].
* A {{p|Jumpluff}} is stuck at [[Silent Chasm]]. {{p|Shiftry}} is asked to go. When he doesn't return the team goes down to rescue {{p|Shiftry}}.
* After {{p|Zapdos}} kidnaps {{p|Shiftry}}, the player must fight it at the top of Mt. Thunder.
* The player consults {{p|Xatu}} for an explanation of their presence in this world as a Pokémon at Great Canyon.
* The player learns of the legend of {{p|Ninetales}}: one day, a human angered a {{p|Ninetales}} and was cursed, however, his/her {{p|Gardevoir}} took the curse upon herself to save her master. However, the human selfishly deserts the cursed {{p|Gardevoir}}. {{p|Ninetales}} prophesises that the selfish human would be reborn as a Pokémon, and when that happens, the balance of nature in the world would collapse.
* {{p|Gengar}} convinces the Pokémon that the player is the selfish human in the legend of {{p|Ninetales}}, and they decide to run them out of town.
* To escape their pursuers the team pass through [[Lapis Cave]] and then [[Mt. Blaze]], where they encounter {{p|Moltres}}.
* The team enters Frosty Forest and is attacked by {{p|Articuno}}, who blames the player for bringing natural disasters to its forest. An {{p|Absol}} steps in and stops the fighting, then joins the rescue team.
* The player reaches [[Mt. Freeze]] and meets the {{p|Ninetales}} of the legend. The player discovers that while part of the legend is true, and the selfish human from the legend is alive. It is not the player.
* The player returns to the town, and {{p|Gengar}} is discredited. Meanwhile [[Team A.C.T.]] goes to the Magma Caverns to defeat {{p|Groudon}}.
* {{p|Wynaut}} and {{p|Wobbuffet}} ask the player to go defeat the {{p|Mankey}} gang in the [[Uproar Forest]]. In return, they offer a peeled Chestnut, which is in turn used to convince the {{p|Mankey}} gang to help renovate the Rescue Team Base.
* Team A.C.T. is defeated, and a new team, comprised of {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Octillery}} and {{p|Golem}}, is formed to go rescue them.
* The new team is also defeated. The player goes to [[Magma Cavern]] themselves to rescue Team A.C.T.
* After defeating {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Xatu}} announces that a falling star is headed towards the planet, and that it is the meteor that is causing the imbalance in nature.
* {{p|Gardevoir}} reveals to the player, in a dream, the true reason for his/her transformation: the player was destined to be the savior of the [[Pokémon world]]; the player decided to erase the memories of being a human in order to cleanse the heart and mind.
* The player goes to find {{p|Rayquaza}} at [[Sky Tower]] in order to convince it to destroy the falling star.
* {{p|Rayquaza}}'s {{m|Hyper Beam}} destroys the meteorite. However, the player ends up in the netherworld in the aftermath of the explosion; {{p|Gengar}} helps them return to the Pokémon world.
* As the Pokémon celebrate the end of the calamities, the player says farewell and leaves to return to the human world.
* After the credits roll, the player decides to remain in the Pokémon world, and reappears at the rescue base.

===Epilogue===
* The players gains entrance to [[Luminous Cave]],.
* After talking to {{p|Medicham}}, {{p|Lombre}} and {{p|Whiscash}} in order, the player goes to [[Stormy Sea]] and defeats {{p|Kyogre}}.
* After getting mail about a [[Buried Relic|new dungeon]], the player talks to Lombre. Then Shiftry will let the player go to Buried Relic.
* Southern Cave, [[Wyvern Hill]], and Howling forest open up after receiving specific friend areas from missions.
* After getting HM Surf in the [[Solar Cave]], {{p|Spinda}} walks into Pokémon Square and collapses. The player and their partner take him back to their rescue base.
* Spinda reveals he was looking for the mirage Pokémon, but doesn't know what it is. He gives the player the Clear Wing, then leaves and stays in Pokémon Square for a while.
* The player's partner suggests that they go and speak to Xatu.
* Upon reaching the top of the Great Canyon, Xatu reveals that the player must first go to the three fields and face the Lords of those areas (the [[Legendary beasts]]).
* After clearing the [[Fiery Field]] and defeating Entei, {{p|Entei}} turns the Clear Wing into the Red Wing.
* After clearing the [[Lightning Field]] and defeating Raikou, {{p|Raikou}} turns the Red Wing into the Sunset Wing.
* After clearing the [[Northwind Field]] and defeating Suicune, {{p|Suicune}} turns the Sunset Wing into the Rainbow Wing, and [[Mt. Faraway]] is unlocked.
* Once the player clears Mt. Faraway and defeat the {{p|Ho-oh|Mirage Pokémon}}, the player can go back to the Fields and Mt. Faraway to recruit the legendary beasts and Ho-Oh (if their friend areas have been opened).
* If the player goes back to Pokémon Square and talk to Spinda, it will leave, encouraged to go exploring again.
* Medicham and Ekans go to the [[Wish Cave]] to try to grant wishes for themselves.
* Ekans is defeated and places a rescue request for Medicham, who is still stuck in the cave.
* After rescuing Medicham, the player is rewarded with the Wish Stone.
* Medicham and Ekans reveal that Gengar is trying to climb [[Mt. Freeze]].
* Gengar asks the player to escort him up Mt. Freeze.
* Gengar reveals himself to be the selfish human in the legend of Ninetales, and is the master of Gardevoir.
* Ninetales gives Gengar the Nine Tail Crest, and sends him to [[Murky Cave]].
* The player and Gengar go rescue {{p|Gardevoir}}. Gardevoir then offers to join the player's rescue team, but it has lost all its memory relating to Gengar.
* Once the player goes back and recruits Ho-Oh, a cutscene will be shown showing Blastoise and Charizard being KO'd by an incredibly strong Pokémon in [[Western Cave|an extremely tough dungeon.]]
* When the player goes through the dungeon, the Pokémon is revealed as {{p|Mewtwo}}.
* If the player has the friend area Cryptic Cave, Mewtwo will ask to join the player's rescue team second time through the dungeon if the player defeats Mewtwo.
* After recruiting all of the [[legendary birds]], the player talks to {{p|Alakazam}}. The player then goes to [[friend area|Legendary Island]] and [[legendary birds|Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres]] will grant access to [[Silver Trench]].
*After recruiting {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Xatu}} will appear outside the Team base. After that, Blastoise will come and say that he saw a cave and saw "{{p|Deoxys|weird things}}". Xatu will then name the place [[Meteor Cave]]. Then, the player will gain access to it. The player may recruit {{p|Deoxys}} in the Meteor Cave.

==Dungeon tips==
*If the player remains on one floor of a dungeon for too long, this will happen:
**It will say "Something is stirring".
**It will say "Something is approaching".
**It will say "It's coming closer."
**It will say "It's right near! It's gusting hard!" Then the player's character will faint.
*Pokémon with the Float terrain ability who try to cross magma will get burned (unless they are {{type2|Fire}}).
*Not all Pokémon are able to be directly recruited. Pokémon that cannot be are mostly final form Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* This is the first game that allows the player to understand what some Pokémon are saying.
* This is the first game in the franchise to offer [[move duplication|the same move to be learned more than once at one time]] without a glitch.
* The [[Generation IV]] [[Pokémon]] {{p|Munchlax}} is obtainable in this game through hacking, despite the fact that the game only contains Pokémon from the first three generations.
* This is the game that features the most [[Pokémon]] in a [[Generation IV|generation that has not been released at the time]] with 5. There are statues of {{p|Weavile}}, {{p|Bonsly}}, {{p|Mime Jr.}} and {{p|Lucario}}, on top of {{p|Munchlax}} who is obtainable through hacking.
* If released, a legendary Pokémon may be fought and recruited again, with the exception of Latios and Latias, who instead ask the player if they can join.
* These are the only paired games to be released on separate [[:Category:Game systems|handheld consoles]] to date. Despite this, they are still virtually identical.
* The original Japanese release of Blue Rescue Team would wipe data from all [[Game Boy Advance]] games in the [[Nintendo DS]]'s second slot unless it was Red Rescue Team. This was fixed in all subsequent releases.
* The box art of Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team is a sequel of that of the box art of Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team, showing the same hole and a friend rescue.
