==Synopsis==
As {{Ash}} and friends continue to [[Blackthorn City]], we see them still in the forest looking for a way out. Ash is still under {{jo|Lily}}'s [[Ashachu]] spell, but soon the spell wears off, Ash becomes human again, and everyone is relieved. Now, however, they still have a small problem; they are completely lost in the woods. Of course, {{an|Misty}} blames it on Ash as usual and insults him by saying she liked him a whole lot better when he was still a {{p|Pikachu}}.

While walking through the woods, Ash and friends meet up with [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in disguise. They proceed to tell Ash that his {{AP|Pikachu}} loses energy because it's lost and they can recharge it with their new invention, the ''PikaPower Mach III''. Jessie then rips Pikachu off Ash's shoulder and straps it in and radios to Meowth who swoops down in their balloon and takes Pikachu, Jessie, and James into the sky. Jessie then tells Ash to command Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}. But what Ash and friends don't know is that, as opposed to recharging Pikachu, the chair actually saps Pikachu of its energy. Ash tells Pikachu to give it all he's got and eventually the chair releases Pikachu and {{TRT}} goes blasting off again.

Just then a girl named [[Krystal]] meets up with Ash and friends. {{an|Brock}}, of course, falls in love with her at first sight. However, Ash goes on telling her that Pikachu is badly hurt and that there isn't a [[Pokémon Center]] for miles around. She asks them to keep a very big secret for her if she helps them out.

Krystal takes our heroes up a large hill where they soon notice that {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon are also climbing up the hill. Krystal tells them that they're all going there for a special reason. When they get to the top of the hill they come to a big lake, and Krystal tells them that Electric-type Pokémon come to rest in there if they're worn out and tells them that the water has magical healing powers. She then orders Ash to put Pikachu into the water.

After Pikachu is healed, Krystal takes Ash and friends out to the middle of the lake in a speedboat to show them the secret to the lake's power. When they look down from the bottom of the boat they see what looks like an underwater temple with a crystal at the bottom. Krystal tells them how the electric Pokémon have been coming to the lake for years and how they are healed by the lake's power. Jessie and James are eavesdropping in on the conversation and plot to steal the crystal.

Meanwhile, Ash and friends are talking about how the lake needs to be kept secret and how bad it would be if the wrong people got a hold of the crystal.

Then Team Rocket goes underwater in a giant mechanical {{p|Tentacruel}} and gets a hold of the crystal. At first they're happy, but then unbeknownst to them the crystal stops glowing. Ash and friends notice that the glowing where the crystal once stood is gone and they panic. Team Rocket reveals themselves, recite their motto, and then float away in their balloon. Our heroes are furious about this occurrence. However the Electric Pokémon start to follow Team Rocket in attempt to get the crystal back. Ash orders Pikachu to {{m|Thunderbolt}} them, and the other Electric Pokémon join in the attack. However, Team Rocket sucks in their energy with the PikaPower Mach III. They then make the machine forcibly draw energy from the Electric Pokémon to drain their power. Just then a scream and black clouds appears in the sky and a huge bolt of lightning breaks the circuit between the electric Pokémon and the machine.

Everyone wonders what this was. The sky suddenly gets dark and the clouds part to reveal the [[legendary birds|legendary bird]] {{p|Zapdos}}! Zapdos is extremely angry and flies toward Team Rocket and zaps their PikaPower Mach III. However, even Zapdos loses energy and the heroes start to wonder why it doesn't seem to have much power in the first place. Zapdos turns it up to full power and overloads the PikaPower Mach III, sending Team Rocket blasting off again. But then Zapdos falls out of the sky to the ground. Still angry and flailing about it finally faints because of its weakness and the process of healing.

Krystal tells them this is the real secret. But without the crystal in the water Zapdos can't get healed so our heroes set off to find Team Rocket and the crystal. Pikachu senses the crystal is nearby so they follow Pikachu to where Team Rocket had crashed. Jessie sends out her {{tp|Jessie|Arbok}} to stop Ash and friends as soon as they arrive in attempt to keep the crystal in Team Rocket's possession; James sends out his {{TP|James|Victreebel}} at this time, too, but of course Victreebel is more interested in eating James rather than attacking Ash. Jessie orders Arbok to use {{m|Poison Sting}} and Ash orders Pikachu to dodge and use {{m|Quick Attack}}. Arbok is then thrown into Jessie and James orders Victreebel to use {{m|Razor Leaf}} and Ash tells Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}} again. Pikachu hits Victreebel and it lands on James. Ash tells Team Rocket to hand over the crystal and Jessie throws Ash a {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} balloon which inflates and bursts causing a lot of dust to fly in the air. Team Rocket now gets away in a new Wobbuffet balloon. Ash throws {{AP|Bayleef}}'s [[Poké Ball]] and orders it to use its {{m|Vine Whip}} to get back the crystal. It gets it back. However, James orders Victreebel to use Vine Whip, too, to get the crystal back and they both struggle to get it and Jessie orders Arbok to use {{m|Poison Sting}} but Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} and makes Team Rocket blast off again. The crystal falls from their grasp, so Ash runs off after it to catch it. He dives off a cliff to keep it safe, and Bayleef uses her Vine Whip to catch Ash just in time, saving him from a crash into the trees below.

Ash and friends now go back to the lake with the crystal. Ash dives underwater with it and puts it back in its rightful place. He rises to the surface but the crystal still doesn't glow. The electric Pokémon swim over to the crystal and they all use their {{m|ThunderShock}} attacks on the crystal which causes it to glow. They then put the injured Zapdos into the lake where it sinks to the bottom but in the midst of it the crystal stops glowing again. The electric Pokémon use ThunderShock on the crystal again which helps power up Zapdos as well. Zapdos recharges and flies out of the water, then gives the crystal full power with its Thunderbolt attack, causing the crystal to glow again. The lake is now back to normal like before, and Zapdos flies off into the clearing as everyone waves goodbye.

Ash and co. are then shown ready to leave, promising Krystal that they won't tell anyone about the lake or Zapdos. Once again Brock tries to score with her but Misty pulls him away by the ear and the episode ends with everyone waving goodbye to each other.

'''Dueling Heroes''' (Japanese: '''うずまきカップ！みずのコロシアムでだいバトル！！''' ''Whirlpool Cup! A Big Battle in the Water Colosseum!!''), is the 216th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on September 20, 2001 and in the United States on October 26, 2002.
{{spoilers}}

==Synopsis==
The day begins with everyone waiting for the [[Whirl Cup]] Colosseum as the water drains out somewhat. Soon all the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and audience watch {{jo|Maya}}, the "[[Lance]]" (if you will) of the Whirl Cup. She congratulates them as well as wishing them a little luck. She then puts her staff that has a sapphire at the end towards the sun which makes the area glow bluish for a while. The prize given to the winning trainer is [[Type-enhancing item#Mystic Water|a pendant]] that helps the {{t|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} who wears it. {{TRT}}, acting like vendors, gazes upon the staff more than the pendant. They find a scheme to try to snatch it.

The way the Whirl Cup tournament goes is a two "block" division, {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} are in block "A". Ash notices he only has {{AP|one Water Pokémon|Totodile}}, so he calls {{an|Professor Oak}} to swap a Pokémon for {{AP|Kingler}}. He puts in {{AP|Bayleef}} and he gets Kingler. Back at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]], Oak releases Bayleef, but Bayleef gets a little scared of Oak and runs around eventually ramming into Oak. The first day all contestants in block A fight off. Ash and Misty sort of get into a fight before the first match begins but {{an|Brock}} helps settle things out.

The second round of Block A pits Ash against {{jo|Christopher}}. Ash uses Totodile for this round and his opponent calls out {{p|Kingdra}}. Ash takes a quick scan on it and Brock in the bleachers comments to Misty that Ash might not have a good time with this one. Being {{2t|Water|Dragon}}, Totodile's Water [[Move|attacks]] are practically useless. Ash takes the lead and commands Totodile to dive under the water but Kingdra counters with a {{m|Twister}}. Totodile snaps out of it and lands on one of the platforms. After that Kingdra shoots a {{m|Hydro Pump}} at Totodile, but Totodile simply walks along the water and gets close enough to do {{m|Bite}}, but Kingdra dives, Totodile doing the same. Kingdra releases a {{m|SmokeScreen}} that covers up the water. With no other option, Ash tells Totodile to jump out of the water. The battle comes to a standstill because it was expected that Ash would have Totodile risk it and jump back in. Fed up, the trainer tells Kingdra to jump up and try another Hydro Pump. Ash however tells Totodile to use Bite on Kingdra, aiming for the snout. Totodile is successful and plugs up Kingdra's snout causing all the water to hold back. After a while Totodile releases and Kingdra goes flying across and eventually getting [[fainting|knocked out]]. Ash wins the match! After the match, Team Rocket is still devising a plan to get Maya's staff. Except a supervisor comes by and they seem to have a strong patriotism to the sales pitch. Later that night Misty stares at the coliseum from the [[Pokémon Center]] window thinking. Ash notices and they have the talk about what will happen if they end up battling each other.

The third round of Block A has Misty battling {{OBP|Harrison|Whirl Cup}}. Harrison is one of the older trainers, so he has a snobbish attitude when he steps up to the arena. The match is on, {{TP|Misty|Corsola}} against {{p|Qwilfish}}. Qwilfish begins the match by shooting a {{m|Water Gun}} but Corsola reflects it back with a {{m|Mirror Coat}}. Seeing that this tactic won't work Harrison tells it to start swallowing water. As the announcer says that this is used for preparing a volley of spikes, Misty thinks fast. Qwilfish soon releases {{m|Pin Missile}} and so Corsola counters with {{m|Spike Cannon}}. The two attacks explode in mid air knocking Corsola back but Qwilfish took refuge in the waters. Taking advantage of this Qwilfish makes a {{m|Tackle}} attack to Corsola. Worried that Corsola is going to burn out anytime, Misty tells it to use {{m|Recover}}, however Qwilfish has already started up another Tackle. By the time Corsola recovered, Qwilfish already zeroed in. Corsola and Qwilfish dive down and Qwilfish reappears, but so does Corsola, below Qwilfish. Qwilfish is stuck on Corsola's head and can't do much about this so it just swims around. Misty finally gets an idea and tells Corsola to use Spike Cannon. Corsola fires the Spike Cannon sending Qwilfish sky-high, Misty winning the match! During the battle, Team Rocket make their move towards Maya's staff but they failed. [[Officer Jenny]] is there and notices them, so they quickly get out their snacks-for-sale and pretend they were going to sell them.

Back at the Pokémon Center, Ash and Misty wait for the results of the tournament, which inevitably turns out that Ash is up against Misty for the next round!

==Major events==
* {{Ash}} recalls {{AP|Kingler}} to his [[party|team]] for the [[Whirl Cup]] and sends {{AP|Bayleef}} to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]].
* {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} get through the first round of the [[Whirl Cup]], and learn they have to battle each other in the second round.

* This is one of the few episodes in which Team Rocket does not blast off.
* Bayleef's behavior after been stored and seeing Oak is similar to {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}}'s in ''[[AG186|Overjoyed!]]''.
**Coincidentally, the Pokémon for [[Who's That Pokémon?]] is Aipom.

===Errors===
* Dragonair, ineligible for the Whirl Cup due to being only {{type2|Dragon}}, is depicted while Maya gives her opening speech.
* Brock says that Corsola, as part Rock type, would have been in serious trouble if Qwilfish's Water Gun hit. This is incorrect, Corsola is affected normally by Water-type moves.
* In "Whose That Pokemon?" is says Aipom uses "its hand like a tail to grab things" when it should say "it uses its ''tail'' like a ''hand'' to grab things."

'''The Wayward Wobbuffet''' (Japanese: '''ソーナンス！そうなんす？''' ''{{tt|Sonans|Wobbuffet}}! Is That So?'') is the 192nd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 5, 2001 and in the United States on March 2, 2002.

==Synopsis==
{{Incomplete synopsis}}

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are still en-route to [[Olivine City]], {{TRT}} lies in wait. Dressed as scientists, they explain they’ve just repaired the amazing “Poké Pod.” To test it out, {{AP|Pikachu}} is placed in the pod and locked in tight. When Team Rocket reveals their true identity and runs, Ash and friends are in hot pursuit. When they catch up to Team Rocket, there isn’t a Poké Pod or Pikachu in sight! Realizing {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} was hiding for the handoff, Ash chases after it. In Wobbuffet’s rash retreat, it trips dropping the Poké Pod containing Pikachu and falls into the rapids of a nearby river. Since the only way to release Pikachu from the Poké Pod is to possess the key around Wobbuffet’s neck, it’s an all-out race to reach Team Rocket’s blue bad-boy first. This proves problematic as Wobbuffet plummets over waterfalls, wanders through forests, gets taken for a ride on the roof of a run-away truck, blows for miles in a hot-air balloon and falls helpless to the helm of a speedboat! Who will reach Wobbuffet and the key first?...

Would be ok to note that this is the first episode not to have an actual battle between two different trainers. At least i think it is.

{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
En route to [[Goldenrod City]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|company}} pass by a lake. {{an|Misty}} lets out all {{cat|Misty's Pokémon|her Pokémon}} so they can swim, but {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} can't remember how to swim and has to be lifted out of the water. Ash releases {{AP|Totodile}} too; it spots some {{p|Magikarp}} and uses its {{m|Water Gun}} to toss them into the air. Misty comments that Totodile is talented.

As everyone is having lunch, Totodile sees a [[Gender|female]] {{p|Azumarill}} sitting on the shore, {{m|sing}}ing. At once Totodile falls in love and runs over to dance in front of the Azumarill. She isn't impressed and blasts him with a Water Gun before walking away. Totodile follows her. At the table, the kids see a {{p|Golduck}} in the bushes. Misty wants to catch it but {{an|Brock}} says to wait, it seems to be looking for something. Shortly later a [[Trixie|girl]] with a {{p|Pidgey}} on her shoulder comes along, looking upset. Brock gives her a long-winded introduction of himself, and she tells him her name is Trixie. Brock flirts with her and Misty drags him away.

Ash asks Trixie what she's looking for, and she says she has lost her Azumarill. As if on cue, the Azumarill appears and hides behind Trixie's legs. Ash consults [[Pokédex|Dexter]]: Azumarill is the [[Evolution|evolved]] form of {{p|Marill}} and can hear for great distances, even underwater. Now Totodile comes out of the bushes and blows kisses at Azumarill but she turns up her nose at him.

Later, they all gather at a circus tent. Trixie has always enjoyed the circus and taught her Pokémon to do tricks. Lately she's had trouble with Azumarill, who has been acting strangely since the Golduck joined the troupe.

Brock is helping set up for the show. Totodile helps too by filling a wading pool with water. He picks up Azumarill and puts her in the pool, only to be blasted with her Water Gun again. Ash doesn't understand why Totodile is acting this way, and Misty tells him that he'll understand when he's older and more mature.

The show starts. Trixie does a magic act first, then Azumarill comes on and juggles colored balls with her Water Gun. Totodile gets away from Ash and jumps up on the stage, showing off his own water tricks with fruit tossed to him by the audience. Annoyed, Azumarill walks away. Ash climbs up on the stage to try to catch Totodile and ends up having to catch the fruit when Totodile runs after Azumarill. Fortunately the audience think it's all part of the show. Brock decides to do something about the problem - he'll teach Totodile how to be successful in love!

{{TRT}} has been watching the show, they plan to steal Azumarill and {{AP|Pikachu}} so they can start their own traveling circus and get rich. {{MTR}} isn't too happy with the idea, he doesn't want his tail to be Totodile's chew toy.

Ash apologizes to Trixie for Totodile's behavior. Misty wonders where Brock is, it turns out he's outside with Totodile. He gives Totodile a jar of his homemade [[Pokémon food|Pokémon treats]] and suggests that Totodile give them to Azumarill. Totodile does so, but is rejected again.

Suddenly a net comes down, captures Azumarill and drags her away! Totodile chases after Azumarill as Brock watches from the bushes. Ash and Misty hear Brock's yell and come to investigate. Totodile chases the captive Azumarill and tries to grab the net but misses. Team Rocket appear in their balloon, with the net dangling below it. Ash orders Pikachu to attack but Meowth uses a device to catch Pikachu in an electric-proof cage! A {{m|SmokeScreen}} attack from {{TP|James|Weezing}} allows TR to escape, but Totodile runs after the departing balloon. Azumarill struggles and loses the ribbon that was tied to her tail. Totodile catches it, and as TR floats away, Totodile jumps into the lake and resumes the chase by water, ignoring Ash and Brock's yells to come back.

The three of them tell Trixie that Azumarill and Pikachu are gone. Misty isn't about to give up and suggests they search the forest on the other side of the lake.

Team Rocket is hiding out in a log cabin. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] try to persuade Azumarill to do tricks for them but she refuses. They even make her a meal fit for a king but she still won't do as they ask. Eventually they resort to using force, but they are stopped by a Water Gun attack from Totodile, who has found them. Meowth muzzles Totodile and ties him up.

Meanwhile, Ash and company are searching through the forest with Trixie and Golduck. It'll be dark soon, so they decide to continue in the morning. Ash is upset but there's nothing much he can do.

Later that night, TR is sleeping in their cabin. The three Pokémon are all in cages now. Azumarill looks out the window at the moon and starts to cry, but Totodile gives her ribbon back and cheers her up by dancing.

In the morning, Team Rocket prepares to leave. Instead of their circus plan they'll take the Pokémon to the {{an|Giovanni|Boss}} for a reward. As they lift off in the balloon, they are spotted by Trixie's Pidgey, which pokes a hole in the balloon and they crash. The cages fall out, Ash gets Pikachu and Totodile back but TR is holding onto Azumarill. Trixie sends Golduck to attack, and its powerful Water Gun makes short work of Weezing and {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}. {{AP|Bulbasaur}}'s {{m|Razor Leaf}} easily takes care of the cages, and Totodile uses its Water Gun to knock Team Rocket over so that Bulbasaur can grab Azumarill's cage with {{m|Vine Whip}}. Then Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}} sends them blasting off again.

Bulbasaur frees Azumarill and she's very happy. At Brock's urging, Totodile runs to her, but to everyone's surprise Azumarill runs right past Totodile and hugs the Golduck! Now Trixie understands why Azumarill has been acting strangely, she was lovesick over the Golduck. Brock tells the disappointed Totodile that although you can't win every time, love is worth fighting for.

The three friends depart. Brock flirts with Trixie one last time and has to be dragged away. Ash calls Totodile, who is sitting on the shore of the lake watching a female {{p|Quagsire}}. He runs to the Quagsire and dances for her, but gets rejected. Misty sighs, all they need is a Pokémon that behaves just like Brock! Ash is forced to chase Totodile with his [[Poké Ball#Generation II Poké Balls|Lure Ball]], as he tries to get him to return.

'''The Joy of Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''セイリングジョーイ！あらなみをこえて！''' ''Sailing Joy! Cross the Raging Waves!'') is the 92nd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 15, 1999 and in the United States on March 4, 2000.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{Tracey}} are riding on {{AP|Lapras}} through the waters of the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]]. Everyone is keeping busy; Ash is polishing the [[GS Ball]], Tracey is [[Pokémon watcher|Pokémon watching]], and Misty is playing with {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}. All of a sudden, splashes of water in the distance become ever closer to the group. As the waves rush past, we see a kayak being propelled by a very tan [[Nurse Joy]] and her {{TP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}}. Tracey recognizes the nurse, and Ash, unsure of what it was, orders Lapras to follow the boat and catch up to whatever had sped past.

The arrives at a small island, where they find a deserted kayak on the beach and two pairs of footprints in the sand. Tracey describes the prints as belonging to a {{p|Chansey}} and a woman with a size-7 sneaker. After following the footprints to a small bay, they realize there are no more tracks to follow. Misty states her uncertainty that what had passed them on a boat was a Nurse Joy. Tracey recalls the moment, saying that the woman seemed more muscular than an average Joy. Just then, a [[Giant Pokémon|giant]] {{p|Magikarp}} jumped up out of the bay and began flopping around on the rock at the group's feet. Misty, worried that the {{t|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} will run out of air, proposes that they help it get back into the water; Ash agrees. Before they can figure out how to help the Pokémon, Nurse Joy and Chansey appears to help Magikarp. Joy gives Magikarp some calcium tablets and throws it back into the water. Nurse Joy tells Ash and {{ashfr}} that she travels from island to island helping sick and injured Pokémon, because a lot of the Orange islands are too small for [[Pokémon Center]]s. She invites the group to her local clinic for lunch.

Back at her clinic, Nurse Joy demonstrates her abilities by treating Ash's Lapras. Eager to see Nurse Joy in action, Ash and his friends ask if they can help with her work. Ash, Misty, Tracey, and Nurse Joy all set off in kayaks. We see the group in a variety of situations where Nurse Joy's assistance is needed. Many {{pkmn|trainers}}' Pokémon are helped: a {{p|Kingler}}, an {{p|Onix}}, and a {{p|Mankey}}, among others.

A little while later, the group falls behind in their kayaks, and loses sight of Nurse Joy. When they finally catch up to her kayak, it is empty; both Chansey and Joy are missing. Tracey believes that a {{p|Gyarados}} could have tipped her boat over. Suddenly, they see a pink figure appear from the water, thinking it might be Chansey; the figure turns over and reveals itself to be {{an|Jigglypuff}}. Before the Pokémon can begin to {{m|sing}}, they race away in their kayaks. When they finally stop, they see Nurse Joy and Chansey, with its first-aid kit, pop up out of the water. She states that she went underwater to treat a sick {{p|Cloyster}}, and sends Chansey to retrieve their kayak. Ash and Tracey become curious as to how Joy can treat Pokémon underwater, so she offers to show them. The boys in their swimming attire jump in to the water and follow the nurse to the ocean floor. There, we see a sick {{p|Shellder}} that Nurse Joy begins to examine. Unable to hold his breathe any longer, Ash begins to struggle. Just then, a [[Wild Pokémon|wild]] {{p|Dewgong}} grabs onto him with its fins. The Pokémon seems to be playing with Ash. Nurse Joy rescues him from Dewgong and they all head back to shore.

At the clinic, Ash is warming up under a blanket with a hot beverage. The group collectively states that Nurse Joy's job is not easy, and that it would be easier to just run a Pokémon Center like all of the other Joys. She begins to tell a story from her childhood. She says when she was a little girl, she found a tiny injured Magikarp on the beach. She decided to take it it home and nurse it back to health. When the Pokémon was healthy once again, she released it back into the ocean. A little while after that, while on a boat with her family, she fell into the water; she was then promptly saved by Magikarp, the same Magikarp that she had helped on its way to full health, who had grown considerably. Joy says that moment was when she decided to dedicate her life to Pokémon, especially those without trainers to care for them. Misty asks her whether the Magikarp they had seen earlier that day was the same Magikarp she had helped. Nurse Joy says that it was, and that her and the Water Pokémon have been friends ever since that day.

Outside, the group sees the warning signs of an upcoming storm. Nurse Joy explains to them that she has one more stop for the day; Ash apologizes for throwing her off schedule. She says that when dealing with Pokémon, one should always expect the unexpected. Tracey expresses his worry over the surely upcoming hurricane, and states that it is too dangerous for Joy to go out on the water again. She says that there is a group of sick baby {{p|Seel}} waiting for her help. Despite Tracey's begging for her to wait until the storm passes, Nurse Joy leaves on her kayak with Chansey anyway. Worried for her safety, the group follows the nurse in kayaks without her knowing.

Out in the middle of the ocean, the choppy waves are making it difficult for everyone to control their boats. Ash shouts for Nurse Joy from behind, and she looks back in surprise. Just then, a huge wave sends Ash, Mist, and Tracey flying into the air and out of their kayaks. Nurse Joy yells to them to send out their Water Pokémon to help keep them afloat; Ash sends out {{AP|Squirtle}}, Tracey sends out {{TP|Tracey|Marill}}, and Misty her {{TP|Misty|Staryu}} (along with {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, who is unable to swim). The nurse tells them to follow her to a nearby island.

On the very small island's beach, the sun is shining once again. With everyone safe from the ocean's wrath, Tracey apologizes to Nurse Joy for intervening in her efforts to help the baby Seel. Joy says that it was alright, and that they were just trying to help. Before continuing on their way to help the group of Seel, they decide to take a short rest. Suddenly, we see {{TRT}} spying on the group from their [[Team Rocket's mechas|Magikarp Submarine]]. Intent on capturing {{AP|Pikachu}}, as well as Chansey, {{MTR}} seems very confident that they will succeed this time. He tells [[James]] that there is no way they can "lose" with his new secret weapon. Meowth then hits a button, which sends a torpedo-like object flying from the submarine, up and out of the water. The object releases a net that entraps Ash, Misty, Tracey, Nurse Joy, Pikachu, and Chansey on the beach. Appearing from the water in the mechanical Magikarp, Team Rocket recites their [[Team Rocket mottos|motto]]. Nurse Joy is intent on escaping, so she can help the baby Seel. Just as tears begin to form in her eyes, an ominous figure rams into Team Rocket's submarine from below the water. The giant Magikarp befriended by Nurse Joy jumps up out of the water with menacing glare. With numerous {{m|Tackle}} attacks, Magikarp tries to rid the ocean of the trio of thieves. As Joy calls out to the Pokémon for help, it begins to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Using it's newly formed tail, {{p|Gyarados}} whips Team Rocket off into the distance. Gyarados turns around to look at the group stuck in the net, and they begin to worry that its evolution caused a change in its demeanor. The Pokémon lunges towards shore, but, instead of attacking, Gyarados gets close to Nurse Joy so she can pet it. Gyarados removes the net with its mouth and flings it into the ocean. Misty exclaims that the Pokémon evolved into Gyarados, but kept Magikarp's personality. Joy thanks her friend for its help. Nurse Joy is finally able to reach the island that is home to the group of sick baby Seel, and treat them.

Ash, Misty, and Tracey admire the relationship between Nurse Joy and Gyarados. Tracey sketches the two of them together and says that if everyone would treat their Pokémon, and each other, with the care, love and respect they deserve, the world would be picture-perfect. Joy then remembers Ash telling her of his plans to become a [[Pokémon Master]]; she tells him of [[Navel Island]]. She says Navel Island is home to an [[Orange League]] [[gym]], and that he might be able to win a [[badge]] there. The group head on their way atop Lapras.

Talk:Ash's Gliscor

2011-06-29T19:14:24Z

Angel10698: /* Training */

==If Ash caught a Johto Pokémon...==

Since Ash caught a [[Ash's Gligar|Gligar]], it is likely it will evolve into Gliscor during the Sinnoh Journey. All Ash needs to do is find or receive a [[Razor Fang]], train Gligar at night, then it'll evolve!

Just because Ash captured a Pokémon doesn't mean it has to stay on his team forever. Imagine this....Ash meets a trainer with a powerful Gliscor. Ash challenges her to a battle with his Gligar. Instead of winning it gets beaten up badly. Ash then realizes Gligar could become much stronger if it stays with that trainer. So he gives Gligar to her saying he would return for it later, like {{TP|Ash|Pidgeot}} and {{TP|Ash|Primeape}}.

Oh well, there is just a selfish, accursed guy called Paul near Ash that has a powerful Torterra and a powerful Gliscor while Ash has a Turtwig and a Gligar......or you mean [[Gligirl]]?(:P)

Ash wouldn't release Turtwig, if he do so, it would be meaningless for it to learn Energy Ball.And for Gligar, I think it would evolve into Gliscor and Oak would soon ask Ash to Oak it for the prof. to observe it.He would later call for its power in the Sinnoh League like Heracross.And he would catch a Dusclops or Piloswine or Rhydon(still haven't lost hope for Rhyperior yet and I prefer Ash to have a fully-evolve that is belongs to the Two-Evolution Families:P) etc. later and evolve it.-[[User:Billy4b2004|Billy4b2004]] 13:30, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

The electric Gym battles of Ash didn't focus much on the electricity.But I think Volkner's electricity would be really strong as it is the last Gym and because of the Anime Psychic, Gliscor would probably be hurt by it easily and Rhyperior or Mamoswine is strong and at least they does not have weakness against electricity.-[[User:Billy4b2004|Billy4b2004]] 13:38, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh, thanks for reminding me, I almost forget about how Ash got Turtwig and Chimchar are similar to the way how he got Charmander and Bulbasaur.Chimchar and Turtwig's types are corresponding to that of Charmander and Bulbasaur and they are both starters while Gligar's type isn't corresponding to that of Squirtle and it is not a starter like Squirtle, we can still say it is unpredictable in this way.Well, I think Chimchar would be fully evolved like Charmander but it woundn't disobey Ash as he treats it really well and I think Turtwig will go to an evolution ceremony presided over by a Torterra but it wouldn't refuse to evolve because it wanted to help Ash beat the abusive rival's Torterra.It would be very different from the past due to the difference between Paul and Gary.-[[User:Billy4b2004|Billy4b2004]] 07:06, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

:::The Problem with the very first picture provided (the one Kenji-girl provided) and why I think it's small is because it's not just the stinger that indicates gender differences.

well I believe that a Gligars stinger in the anime is changing size with every shot sort of an animation error so this would make it impossible to tell what it is. [[User:ShinyMedicham]]

: I disagree, because not only was the attack not called out, it's more likely it was sand attack and it was Staravia's "whirlwind" attack that gave it the appearance of such. And since when have we seen Gliscor use sand attack? Never, so this could be Gliscor's way of using sand attack. And yes attacks have been portrayed differently (Hell May's Skitty changed double slap from its paws to its tail. Because Gliscor is more powerful than Glgar, it is reasonable to assume that sand attack would look more powerful then Gligar's. Besides, I would think it it's not confirmed, it's not added. Just because it looks like Sandstorm isn't enough to add it. I think it has to be called out in order for it be added. --[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 00:52, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Well, I don't know if it is accurate to say that Ash released Gliscor, it just was left for training, much like Charizard. Even Squirtle looks like being released more than gliscor, but we all know squirtle is still Ash's.
So I think Gliscor is still Ash's, as there is no proof that Ash can't use it in a future episode, and the statements of it being released should be edited. [[User:Luord|Luord]] 07:16, 17 April 2010 (UTC)Luord

::In that case there are still some writing mistakes in the whole page, as in the text says relased, but in the template it isn't with the other released pokemon, it is in the "training" section; and finally the most accurate thing to say (and this apply to ambipom too, if you don't want to consider them as in training) is that it was given away, because it was given to another trainer, not left in the wild (like Lapras or Paul's stantler, for example).

== Smaller than normal Gliscor? ==

Would it be worth noting Gliscor being smaller than normal especially when compared to another Pokémon? (Paul's Drapion is a perfect example) I mean, Drapion at average is 4 feet 3 inches and Gliscor is normally 6 feet and 7 inches. So Gliscor should have been taller than Drapion. And yet when Gliscor battles Drapion, the Drapion appears alot larger than Gliscor. And in some scenes with Ash, Gliscor seems to appear different size sometimes. Sometimes it looked smaller than Ash and other times it towered above him, like when Gliscor caught Ash after it evolved from Gligar and when it returned and hugged Ash before match with Paul. --[[User:Brats817|Brats817]] 23:36, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
:nah, I always say this Why should a Species of Pokemon ALWAYS be the same size as listed in the Pokedex. it's just not natural really. besides we've seen other size Pokemon of different species. also Gliscor is NOT 6 feet, it's the tail [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 23:44, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
::Well yeah they don't have to be the same exact size the Pokédex says actually but some Pokémon are at least around that height. The Pokédex height is just the average some Pokémon of that species are. As for Gliscor being 6 feet because standing on tail, I think it's off for the Pokédex to say. If Gliscor truly IS 6 feet, then it should've been as the height when standing on the feet. Makes more sense for Gliscor to be listed around 4 or 5 feet tall when standing on the feet. Still I found it kinda weird that Drapion seemed massive compared to Gliscor when they should've been about the same size at full height, unless it was just a bigger than normal Drapion or smaller than normal Gliscor.

== In Training or Professor Oak's Lab? ==

In the article about Ash's Gliscor, it states that its current whereabouts are unknown, if he is still training with McCann or at Prof. Oak's lab. However in McCann's article in the Pokémon section, it lists Gliscor as "Formerly Trained." I'm confused by this, and there isn't even any proof. [[User:Satoshi101|Satoshi101]] 22:18, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
:You are exactly right, there is no proof whatsoever as to what happened to Gliscor after the battle with Paul. The reason is, the anime never specified what happened to Gliscor ''after'' the battle with Paul, if he went with the rest of Ash's Sinnoh team to Professor Oak's Lab, or if he went back to training with McCann. We probably will not know what happened to him at least until the Unova League Tournament in Black and White, and that is ''if'' Ash uses his Pokémon that he caught from previous regions, I personally have a sneaking suspicion that if he continues to catch Pokémon at the rate that he currently is, he will limit himself to just the Pokémon that he caught in the Unova region, as that will provide him with more than enough choices. If that is the case, we might not know what happened to Gliscor for a ''very'' long time. --[[User:Jediknightdtv|ジェダイの騎士]][[User talk:Jediknightdtv|デジタルテレビ]] 23:45, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

Is it important enough to add that Jessie was the first female Team Rocket member to appear in the games? (From what I can remember, she was.) [[User:Hooray4Homestar|Hooray4Homestar]] 03:31, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

== Age ==

In episode IL episode 56, (55 in US) while signing up for the Pokēmon admissions exam, she says her age is 17. That would mean that if the age listed here is correct, 8 years would have passed since the first season. This means that either this page should be edited or else the age of almost every other main character should be edited (and making Ash 18). Please think about this. {{unsigned|Platinumcyndaquil}}
:I haven't watched it in a long time... got a YouTube link or something? And besides, this is Pokémon. There's inconsistencies everywhere, and Team Rocket are known to ''bend'' the truth sometimes... And that reference wasn't in the original, so we don't know how accurate it is.
:Anyway, it's not Pokēmon, it's Pokémon. There's a huge difference between macron'd e (sounds like ee) and accented e (sounds like ey). And we don't go by IL/OI/JJ/JLC/MQ/A/AC/AB/BF/DP/BD, we go by EP/AG/DP. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 03:33, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Also, if that age is supposedly real time, then it would also be wrong because she would be about 27 or so.

==Team Rocket's Pokemon==

In the box titled "Team Rocket's Pokémon", Smoochum is under both temporary Pokémon and rented Pokémon. Was there more than one Smoochum, or has the status of the Smoochum remain undecided? ~PazuSalmon

No from the episodes I saw there has only been 1 Smoochum that jessie has used, but I think it would be better put under borrowed since it was given to her by professor Rowan to use at the camp.

:Yeah! what the heck! I know she did kinda used them, like in AG165 she used {{m|Headbutt}} against the director of the TV show... or something, but it look a lot like "a attack", anyways, she's a human so '''Moves Used''' mmmm I'm not sure...

==More trivia==
Well, there are a few extra things that would also fit in well into trivia, like the fact that she is the only human to catch a Pokemon without the aid of another Pokemon (She fought it herself)... Also, all of her main battle Pokemon have been snakes. (Arbok and Seviper currently)

Thoughts? Maybe you've noticed other trends or unique aspects of Jessie?

Not the first to catch a pokémon without another. Ash and krabby off the top of my head for one thing. [[User:TheAlmightyChris|TheAlmightyChris]] 09:32, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Considering she now has just as many as Dawn, shouldn't 'Episodes in which Jessie gets a ribbon' be made a category?

== Secret Identaty ==

Am I the only one who thinks Jeeselina should have her own page, or at least a section on this one, sne is known to almost everyone in sinnoh as a skilled coordinator that made it to the semifinals of the grand festival and no one in the anime other than james, meowth and there pokemon no different. To them she is a completely new character- owner of many pokemon, unique coordiantor with strange and entitaining combinations and a riaval to Dawn, Kenny, Zoey and Ursala. I'd do it myself is I got the "OK" from an admin [[User:05308|Lanturn....05308]] 11:10, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
:Gosh! not again. The thing is, we already had a dispute over this same issue few months ago upon which Kenji decided that we'll use Jessilna for the episode contest articles. Creating an entire article on Jessilina won't be a good idea, however a ''separate'' Jessilina section in this article would be a good choice. I know that the info about Jessilina is already mentioned in this article but it's not separated with a boldly highlighted section named '''Jessilina'''. ♫♪[[User:Adyniz|'''Ady''']][[User talk:Adyniz|'''Niz''']]♪♫ 13:09, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

== Jessie and James on unfriendly terms? ==

It says "they joined Team Rocket separately and were on initially unfriendly terms after being grouped with Meowth but they quickly made up and became good friends" but they acted like they didn't know each other. They didn't seem to be mad at each other an anyway. so then why does it say that?[[User:Angel10698|Angel10698]] 00:14, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Jessie used the name Jessica in her first competition and she had an outfit and everything should that me mentioned in the list of her disguises?[[User:Angel10698|Angel10698]] 03:22, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

== Jessie being more important ==

I noticed that Jessie has been way more recognized than James in many types of media. Her having more Pokémon than James, Jessie having at least one Pokémon in Unova while James has none, most of the serebii links of Japanese titles of episodes being changed to English titles of episodes, etc. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 01:30, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==

Ash and company are on the way to [[Fortree City]] in pursuit of Ash's next gym battle and badge. As the city comes into sight, Max notes that Fortree City has an abundance of treehouses, and Brock courteously explains that it's an old tradition in the city. Ash, on the other hand, isn't particularly interested in the trees and speeds off towards the gym. Upon arrival, Ash calls out that he's here for a battle, and he's greeted by the Fortree City Gym assistant, Zachary. Zachary informs Ash that the Gym Leader is in the village, and unfortunately she's busy with the Feather Carnival, a once-a-year celebration of the sky in the city. Of course, Ash races down to the square to find the Gym Leader. While looking around the square, Max spots a {{p|Skarmory}} flying with two people, a woman and young child, on its back.

While Ash and the gang move to track down the landing Skarmory, Team Rocket also arrives in Fortree City. [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} are perfectly happy to to be at a carnival, but James seems rather unhappy. When pushed, James regales them with a story from his youth -- when he was just a young boy he saw a rare {{t|Psychic}}-type {{p|Chimecho}}, which he wanted very dearly. Unfortunately, his parents wouldn't let him have one, and by the time he escaped his home to find Chimecho himself, the carnival had packed up and left. James says that this incident left him a "hollow shell of a man", and bursts into tears. However, it turns out that Jessie and Meowth got bored and walked off while he was talking, despite his emotional display.

Back with Ash and company, the Skarmory has landed and its trainer is looking for another child to take on a Pokémon ride. As usual, Brock gets to her first, but Ash fights his way through the crowd and introduces himself to the pilot, [[Winona]]. They discover quickly that [[Winona]] is the Fortree Gym Leader, so Ash immediately challenges her. Winona accepts the challenge, but delays the match until after the festival. That leaves Ash and gang fairly idle for some time, so the company calls out their Pokémon to enjoy the carnival. May and Max even get a ride on Skarmory like the other children, their first experiences on a flying Pokémon. Brock and Ash watch from the ground, discussing a combination of local history and strategy for the upcoming match.

Meanwhile, Meowth and Jessie discuss James' story. Meowth remarks that while Chimecho isn't exactly a [[Legendary Pokémon]], it's a safe bet that they won't see one around. Ironically, at that very moment, a Chimecho floats by. Elsewhere, James walks off in a huff because Jessie and Meowth ditched him. However, he passes a stand selling Chimecho-shaped bells and his anger is forgotten... and who would happen to be running this stand but our favorite swindler, the [[Magikarp salesman]]. Still stinging from his run-in with this con-man in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]'', James notices that the Salesman's "Chimecho" don't seem much like Chimecho, which is fairly obvious (the tape holding them together is showing). However, as usual, the Magikarp salesman tells James that he's turned over a new leaf and begs his forgiveness, all the while trying to pawn off his fake Chimecho (which he gives to James for free, so it couldn't be that bad of a deal). James walks away happy, thinking that his new "Chimecho" will bring him success and happiness. Jessie and Meowth soon find James, and are quick to point out that it's not a Chimecho -- it's in fact a {{p|Hoppip}} painted like a Chimecho with a bell for a tail. However, just as Jessie and James begin to fight over the error (and Hoppip happily floats away), a real Chimecho floats by. James asks Chimecho if it would like come along with them, and Chimecho happily agrees.

Elsewhere, Zachary and Winona lead Ash to the Fortree City Gym, an open arena on top of the gym itself, on level with the surrounding trees. Before Ash and Winona can start their battle, an explosion breaks out in the square below -- and explosion caused by Team Rocket and their new robot, a "Double Trouble Sparky Shocker" that uses electricity to disable and capture all of Fortree City's famous flying Pokémon. Winona and Skarmory immediately hit the robot with a {{m|Wing Attack}}. Team Rocket launches into their motto (joined by Chimecho), then the battle commences. Pikachu uses the usual {{m|Thunderbolt}} on Team Rocket, but Chimecho uses {{m|Heal Bell}}, which restores Team Rocket. In mean time, Swellow flies in on attack run with Pikachu on its back, taking several electric attacks but persevering nonetheless. Swellow finally closes with a Wing Attack, but Team Rocket counters with another electric attack and capture Swellow and Pikachu. Skarmory, however, uses a {{m|Drill Peck}} attack to break the robot's cage and free the captured Pokémon. Skarmory Drill Pecks until again (with James refusing to force Chimecho to battle) and destroys the robot. Team Rocket blasts off, and the day is saved -- though the sun is going down. Ash and Winona agree to delay the battle until the following day. The day and the Festival end with a fireworks display and some formation flying, with Winona at the head.

'''Lessons in Lilycove''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンコンテスト！ミナモ大会！！''' ''Pokémon Contest! {{tt|Minamo|Lilycove}} Tournament!'') is the 91st episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 365th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on August 26, 2004 and in the United States on September 10, 2005.
{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==

This episode is the second half of the {{ci|Lilycove}} [[Pokémon Contest]]. It appears as though {{TP|May|Combusken}} was only showing off during its appeal, as it jumps in front of {{an|May}}, knocks its wheel of flame into a rain of fire, and then jumps up holding a huge ball of fire, which it then smacks with a {{m|Sky Uppercut}}, bringing another rain of fire down. The crowd goes wild, and the judges give May scores of 8.5, 8.0, and 7.1, for a cumulative score of 23.6. The judges seem to love the look, but at least one of them realized that it was more luck than planning. {{AP|Swellow}}, meanwhile, continues to train. It seems to be having trouble concentrating, though, between the {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s and the huge screen showing them compete.

[[Kelly]]'s {{p|Grumpig}} apparently likes to wag its tail as it shows off with some {{m|Psychic}} juggling of [[Pokéblock]]s. The audience is really involved with Grumpig's performance and it finishes by eating all of the Pokéblocks. The judges award Grumpig a cumulative 27.7 score, which will be hard to beat. Swellow has finally mastered the limbo bar outside but then smacks into a tree because it wasn't paying attention to its direction.

Next in the contest are [[Jessie]] and {{TP|James|Chimecho}}. The two basically hypnotize the audience with {{m|Heal Bell}}, but their finish is clouded by Jessie trying to make Chimecho's voice more dynamic but making it sound awful. {{AP|Pikachu}} and Swellow hear this outside. However, the judges award Jessie and Chimecho a perfect score of 30. After a random shuffling of contestants, May and Jessie are facing each other in the semifinals, with Combusken versus Chimecho. Chimecho puts up a good fight, but May isn't going to lose easily. One {{m|Peck}} attack later, Chimecho backs off, and a {{m|Fire Spin}} attack is ordered. This is followed by Jessie ordering a {{m|Double-Edge}} attack, which Combusken counters with a Sky Uppercut, and this completely knocks out Jessie and Chimecho. Outside, Ash and Swellow are training very hard, and Swellow finally learns {{m|Aerial Ace}}. However, on one attempt Swellow misses the target but hits [[Team Rocket]], who are heading home after Jessie's defeat in the Contest.

It comes down to May versus Kelly in the finals. An {{m|Iron Tail}} attack is used by Grumpig,, but Combusken catches it in its claws. The {{type2|Fire}} issues a counterattack, but is foiled by a {{m|Psychic}}, and Grumpig sends it back as a fire dragon. Combusken smashes it with Sky Uppercut, but then gets caught in a psychokinesis trap and is rendered helpless. Grumpig appears to be the default winner, as Combusken can't move, but with quick thinking on May's part, Combusken fires off a Fire Spin at the ceiling, causing it to rain fire and damage Grumpig. They fall together as the Psychic attack fails, but Combusken saves them both by using Fire Spin to halt their descent. May is the winner! Kelly promises that she'll be even stronger the next time they meet.

== Trivia ==
* The Japanese character names Haruka and Kanata are a pun based on はるか彼方 — that faraway place — a line from Advance Adventure.
* This episode marks the second time a Pokémon's attack was sent back by a {{m|Psychic}} attack in the form of a dragon. The first time it was done was by {{TP|Sabrina|Kadabra}} in ''[[EP022|Abra and the Psychic Showdown]]'' to deflect {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|ThunderShock}}.
* This is one of the rare instances where Mr. Sukizo says something that doesn't incorporate "remarkable". When James's Chimecho is using Heal Bell, he says, "I love you guys."
* Team Rocket do not sing their motto in this episode.

=== Errors ===
* Chimecho received recoil damage from Double-Edge after {{TP|May|Combusken|Blaziken}} dodged the attack. However, Chimecho should have received the damage only if it was able to hit Combusken.

{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==

The gang enter [[Rubello Town]], on their way to Ash's next gym battle -- but Max spots a poster for a Pokémon Contest is due to begin the next day. {{an|May}} is delighted, and Ash's ambitions for his next badge will have to be put on hold as May quickly decides to enter. Brock, however, notices a mysterious symbol on the contest poster -- "R1", which the group is at a loss to identify. Fortunately, Nurse Joy quickly explains that any entrant to this contest must have one ribbon already. In the Pokémon center, May also encounters Drew, who is also entering the Pokémon Contest (and insults May, as usual). However, as May's temper rises, Drew is engulfed by a swarm of rabid female fans (vaguely reminiscent of our old pal, [[Gary Oak|Gary Oak]]). Drew isn't exactly happy to see these fans, as they lean towards the obsessive side, but May becomes miffed and jealous nonetheless. However, the jealously is forgotten when one of the girls recognizes May and the group crowds around her, instead. However, the fans seem more interested in [[Norman]] than either May or Max. During the discussion, Savannah, the head of the group, explains that they saw May in the Verdanturf Contest and that she will be entering this contest, making May realize she’s got a new, albeit friendly, rival. The group also introduces themselves with a cheer as the MFP ("Mothers for Pokémon"), and that they are a group of wives and mothers who love Pokémon. They decide to throw a party for May and Max, and one of the MFP tells Ash that he isn't on the list of "Promising and Handsome Young Trainers". Meanwhile, Team Rocket enters the town verily fatigued, but Jessie, upon seeing the contest poster, decides to enter. James and Meowth groan. Since she has yet to win a contest, Jessie has no ribbons -- so after a shouting match with an official, she resolves to steal one and enter the R1 exclusive contest anyway.

Back at the reception, Savannah and the MFP complement May and her father, Norman. Meanwhile, Ash mutters angrily (as he has now become the jealous one) that he does all the hard work, training, and gym battles. Nonetheless, Ash vehemently denies his jealousy when Max asks him about his complaining. At the other table, Savannah and May realize that neither of them have picked Pokémon for the contest! Savannah shows May her {{p|Lairon}} and {{p|Flareon}} (whilst complementing Brock on his knowledge of homemaking skills, which sends Brock to fantasy land). While showing May her Pokémon, Savannah reveals that this R1 competition requires the use of two Pokémon -- different ones for primary and secondary rounds. While Savannah merely has to decide the order, May faces a more difficult decision -- picking two candidates from her four Pokémon lineup. While Brock and Savannah go grocery shopping and meet Savannah's daughter Sandra, May, Ash, and Max talk the Pokémon choice over. Ironically, Sandra presents a seemingly substantial level of maturity, apologizing for her mother's sophomoric behavior and excitement over the contest and the MFP. Savannah and Sandra invite the company to dinner in the end.

May trains late into the night, testing all four of her Pokémon to see which is the best choice for the upcoming contest. Bulbasaur stumbles and trips in its attempted combination, but May remains confident and happily remembers the complements she got from the MFP earlier that day. Her reminiscence is interrupted by Drew's voice, calling out orders to his new {{p|Masquerain}}. Drew notices May watching her, and brags that "winning this contest will be a cinch." Drew also notices May's Pokémon, and inquires about her new [[May's Bulbasaur|Bulbasaur]] -- a rare find in the [[Hoenn|Hoenn Region]]. Drew insults May's Bulbasaur as undisciplined, which is probably an accurate assessment. Nonetheless, Drew's comments provoke May and she decides to use Bulbasaur in the contest -- a decision which startles the rest of the group.

Meanwhile, Savannah nears the breaking point from stage fright, but completely forgets her fear at the sight of Bulbasaur, which she says was her first Pokémon long ago. May and Savannah decide to start a practice battle to train -- Bulbasaur having the disadvantage against Savannah's Flareon. However, the battle is cut short by Team Rocket's interruption, which Jessie and James sporting a new ribbon-theft based motto, "To Protect My Entry Status From Devastation! To Allow a Certain Contestant to Complete Her Registration! To Denounce the Evils of Losing, that's True! To Extend Her Winning Streak From Zero to Two!" James and Meowth are less than enthusiastic about the theft operation, but Jessie certainly is and sends out her [[Jessie's Dustox|Dustox]] to combat the Pokémon Savannah and May already have out. However, Ash, Brock, and Max quickly arrive on the scene. Flareon's {{m|Flamethrower}} is deflected by {{p|Wobbuffet}}, but Ash's [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] and Brock's [[Brock's Lotad|Lotad]] and [[Brock's Mudkip|Mudkip]] are quickly called out to join the battle. {{p|Wobbuffet}} again deflects Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}} and a pair of {{m|Water Gun}} attacks. Jessie orders her Dustox to attack Sandra, though, and that's the breaking point for Savannah -- she becomes angry that Jessie would dare attack her daughter and orders Flareon to launch another attack. The blue punching bag, Wobbuffet, steps forward -- but the attack was aimed at the balloon, not Wobbuffet. Team Rocket goes down in flames. Jessie declares that she would rather give up James and Meowth than the ribbons (which angers James and Meowth) and they convince Jessie to surrender the ribbons to the group. Sandra and Savannah launch a Water Pulse which sends Team Rocket blasting off... and the day is done, for tomorrow is the start of the Contest.

Angel10698: /* Veggie error */ new section

== Trainer's Choice ==

Trainer's Choice's question should be which Pokémon did [[Jessie]] replace with Seviper ?

:And where's the proof? Face it, Trainers' Choice had some pretty bull**** writers during the Advanced Challenge arc, with more than their fair share of errors. This whole "Arbok evolving into Seviper" thing was pretty much the icing on the cake that resulted in changes in Trainers' Choice writing for the Advanced Battle arc. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 02:46, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

== Another error ==

I added in that May erroneously mentioned that she used Skitty in the Fallabor contest when she actually used her Beautifly. I also added in a footnote that this error was ALSO present in the original version.

== Veggie error ==

(its funny cuz we were talking about this the other day) about all fruits are vegetables but not all vegetables are fruit. it is a technicality type thing. so it isn't really an error. I'm sure if you look it up you can find something about it. or ask my brother, he can give you a long technical explanation about it. [[User:Angel10698|Angel10698]] 03:56, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

''Flannery said that the "last trainer had used Dig a lot" but then said that Ash's battle was the first one she had fought.''

But wasn't she just referring to the last battle Mr. Moore fought before he left?

-She referred to it has HER battle though...

== Trainers Choice error? ==

On the Trainer's Choice it said that the best choice to battle Forretress is Seviper. But isn't it true that Seviper (poison) is weak against Forretress (Bug and '''''Steel''''')?--[[User:Teamrocketfan45|Teamrocketfan45]] 01:53, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

* It may be because Seviper can learn Flamethrower, Dig, and Earthquake, the only attacks that any of these Pokemon have which is effective on Steel. [[User:Disinfect|Disinfect]] 20:46, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
::Does anyone know what the other choices are? Seviper isn't weak to Steel, but Foretress is immune to its STAB attacks. If either of the other two choices isn't weak to Bug or Steel moves then that should really have been the correct answer. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 21:03, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Excalibur isn't the Sword-in-the-Stone. This is a common misconception. We may be an encyclopedia about Pokémon specifically, but that doesn't mean we should be making gratuitous errors like this one. I'm changing it to the Sword in the Stone.

== Similarity to classic movie? ==

I remember seeing somewhere about a movie where a black man and a white man were handcuffed together and had to travel like that, which I believe this episode is based on. Anyone remember the title?

[[wp:The Defiant Ones|Found it!]]

==Possible Anime Goof?==

Earlier, I put down this note in the Error section:

When Ash climbs out of the trap and runs after Pikachu, the Meowth balloon can be seen taking off in the distance. However, in the next scene, Team Rocket and the balloon are still on the ground.

However, I've watched the episode a second time and think that my observation was a mistake. It could be possible that Team Rocket got away and landed at another location, as shown in the next scene. Does anybody else agree? If so, I'll take it off. [[User:Rockersk08|rockersk08]] 16:13, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

===I agree===
It might have been just a bad (or lack of) transition. Maybe we should include this as an error instead of the quirk. It makes sense since it's a post production error.

I've had it happen where my player shows an error that isn't really there ,so if someone could double check this error that would be great. In the scene where meowth and pikachu get stuck cuz they both go to opposite sides of a tree and pikachu makes meowth come to his side, after meowth comes to his side there is a second where you can see a lighting spark some from pikachu's cheek.

Some of these attack seem like Physical Attributes and are they really that notable? Like Marnie's Drifloon knowing Fly. Are we sure we can consider that its actually using the game move Fly?

: I think the difference though is some Pokemon can't learn/know a specific move period. And TMs don't really exist in the anime, and so most of the time a Pokemon has to learn a move by watching someone else. (Ash's Turtwig with Energy Ball). And with the case of Pikachu, all it was required to do is store it's electricity and use Quick attack, which is probably how all Pichu/Pikachu/Raichu are capable of using Volt Tackle. The anime puts more realism in the show, since the games are limited. I would be surprised if the games had a system where if you used two attacks in a row and leveled up, it would learn a move that way. And I think the point of this article is for moves that a Pokemon cannot know a move for any reason. Like if a Caterpie started using Flamethrower. It cannot know it period. But Pikachu can know Volt Tackle --[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 18:57, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

How do we know that Ash's Pikachu was never a Pichu that was bred with a Light Ball? For all we know, Pikachu could have hatched under the same circumstances as an in-game Pichu that knows Volt Tackle, only for some reason it was unaware that it could use the move until that moment. [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 17:52, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

== "the games" ==

Riolu's Aura Sphere seems to have exposed an issue. What are we counting as "the games"? Just the main set (RBY,GSC,RSE,FRLG & DP) or the various side games as well? For that matter, what counts as "learned"? [[User:Cassius335|- Cassius335]] 10:34, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

I believe it counts any move that a Pokemon can learn through any method, as long as that Pokemon with that move can be brought over to a main game. I'm [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]], and I approve this [[User Talk:Missingno. Master|message.]] 11:00, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Actually, because the Riolu is transferred to D/P, Riolu does learn Aura Sphere in D/P.--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 13:23, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

That's not what "learn" means, Kuki. It can "know" Aura Sphere in D/P, but there's no way ''within D/P themselves'' for Riolu to acquire Aura Sphere; not by level-up, not by TM, not by egg-move or Heart Scale, not even by Move tutor. Even in Baatonage, the Riolu doesn't "learn" Aura Sphere as such; it shows up already knowing the move, without any indication of how it got the move. That's sort of it's whole point: it's an abberation, an anomaly; A Pokemon which knows a move it shouldn't know until it evolves. As such, Riolu's Aura Sphere belongs on the list. [[User:Cassius335|- Cassius335]] 12:01, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
:If that is the case, Ash using Aura Sphere in movie 8 should also be on the list. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] |[[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|Talk Page]]| 12:06, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

== Anime errors? ==

I couldn't find an article on this, but I remember general anime errors in the cartoon that weren't move related. Like Jenny commanding a Growlithe (by calling it Arcanine) to take down Team Rocket's balloon, and Pikachu's electric attack taking out Marowak, which is equally as bad as a move error. I know there's other examples out there too..
Would it be a good idea if there be a general Anime Errors article, with the move errors being a subset of it? Or am I just crazy? Toastypk 19:25, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

== Nosepass and Hyperbeam?==

We can't judge a Pokemon's attack solely by its appearance, just because it looked like Hyper beam doesn't mean it was hyper beam. Roxanne in the original said "denjihou" which is not hyper beam but Zap Cannon. Hyperbeam is "hakaikousen" unless someone who actually speaks Japanese would like clarify at what point did Nosepass use hyper beam. Plus it paralysing Nosepass sort of makes it final that Roxanne's Nosepass never used hyper beam. Also when has hyperbeam ever been electrical in its appearance? --[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 03:26, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Well, I can't speak for the Japanese version. But my DVD with the dub has Roxanne saying "Zap Cannon". --[[User:Sato|Sato]] 13:17, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

: Well I did see the Japanese version, and like I said I clearly keep hearing the Japanese name for "Zap Cannon" (Denjihou). I wonder, do the people who think it is hyper beam, are basing it only on its appearance or are you actually basing it on what Roxanne said. Now I suppose its possible that in the very original (the first time this episode aired) Roxanne told Nosepass to use hyper cannon, but the version I saw, she says "Denjihou" which is Zap Cannon. Now you're probably going to ignore me because I don't speak Japanese, but I'd like to point out, I'm using these move names from someone who does speak Japanese. And like I said in July, since when has Hyper Beam been electrical in appearance. I'll gladly give the link of the version I saw, if someone needs it. --[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 15:01, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

==Metagross==

Really? First off it looked nothing like lock-on used when Brandon did it. Secondly I'm pretty sure it was just in reference to Metagross's supercomputer brain. And thirdly even if somehow it was lock-on it wouldn't explain why Metagross used it, Metagross did it to come up with a strategy against Wobbuffet. Lock-on would only guarantee Wobbuffet using a counter move like Counter or Mirror Coat not surpass it. And finally it was never mentioned by Team Rocket to be Lock on. Really it was mostly a reference to it's intelligence not a move itself. I thought that was pretty obvious given those "Fakey Equations" going through Metagross's eyes. I mean what Supercomputer is incapable of figuring out the angles and what needs to be done. With Lock-on the move it may have nothing to do with intelligence but in Metagross's case it was. So I think Metagross should be removed due to lack of evidence. --[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 10:19, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

== If your going.. ==

..to have a page listing this stuff then you may as well have a page listing the fact that in the anime Pokemon can learn more then 4 moves unlike the game. When Krabby evolved into Kingler it used 5 moves after evolving. And half of these moves listed are just the Pokemon doing things they could normally do if they were real which the anime makes out they are cause in the games you can't tell a Pokemon to dodge an attack or use an attack at the same time as an opponent. Also the comments about Counter for Caterpie and such IIRC Ash merely said for Caterpie to counter the attack not meaning use the counter attack but to do something to counter it which could be understandable since he could have not known the attacks it could use. Also if your adding things to this page then why not have that Brock's Onix used Wrap on many occasions? And Ash's Larvitar didn't use the ''move'' Harden, it just Hardened up which is an expression like clamming up. The anime doesn't follow the same rules as the games. To me this page seems a bit of a waste.--[[User:Lycos Ex Mortis|Lycos Ex Mortis]] 10:50, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
:A whole page about that would be a waste. And I don't think they've ever used more than 4 moves in an episode. But aside from that, they could learn new moves. Basically, what you're saying is that we should also (if we made the page) add Ash's Pikachu to that page, since it has used more than 4 moves. Which is why the page would be a waste, because we'd be adding most of the main characters' Pokémon to the page, and only them.

== Markings for dub errors ==

I think there should be a special mark for moves in which the dub made a mistake, not the original. Like Bulbasaur's Whirlwind and Vulpix's Agility. Maybe we could also have marks for moves that were incorrectly named in the original. Like Nosepass's Hyper Beam. Clearly, it was an electrical attack.

Whether or not people consider right or wrong, it should still be allowed on the site. This is a Pokémon encyclopedia after all. If shipping in general is part of this encyclopedia, then homosexual ships should be included as well to make the site as complete as it can be. Just because some people find it offensive is no reason to remove it ({{p|Jynx|though it does happen...}}). Some people find shipping in general to be offensive, while some disagree with having spoilers of things that have only been shown in Japan at the time.

The lack of a Misty 'ship is due to her not being currently present in the group, coupled with not having an alternate, non-Ash 'ship that has the following of Contestshipping (no, Orange doesn't compare; if she did, it wouldn't matter that she's gone like May, it would have been up there). Dawn and Zoey for the lesbian side (Ikari might be thee most popular Dawn 'ship, but Appeal and Penguin at least have something to stand on), Ash and Gary for the gay side (not to mention, still darn popular), Contest because it's nigh-canon, Luck as Brock's top 'ship because Brock is still current (thus shall set an example), and Rocket because that's never going to die.

If there's a need to be at least one Brock Ship then it should be [[GymShipping]]. I'm not a fan of this ship, but GymShipping is mentioned most of the time rather than LuckShipping and there are fanworks. {{unsigned|Jczala}}
:I agree! I feel that Gymshipping is much more popular then luckshipping beacuse it was one of the original shipings so it has lots of fans. I think Luckshipping should be taken off for Gymshippinmg.[[User:Alexa9966|Alexa9966]]
::I gave my reasons above. You want more? How about, with Luckshipping's inclusion, it's not simply a list between main characters and their rivals (providing minimally accepted diversity/variety)? It stands out as the 'ship that isn't so interlaced with the heavily recurring characters. Luckshipping IS popular (I traverse enough 'shipping forums to know it's a preferred Brockship in recent times), more so than TeenCareshipping, and it doesn't matter about the lack of fanworks. Gymshipping might be the more popular Brockshipping within the overall cast, but Misty has currently fallen off the scene, thus promoting her heavily goes against the grain of getting off the Advance horse and onto the DP horse.
::Why is this such a big deal?? No one's picketing my door because I didn't include Ikarishipping or Comashipping. Or Abilityshipping, or Pikashipping (which probably SHOULD be there, now that I think of it, or Altoshipping, as a pokéship). Or Egoshipping, or Twinleafshipping, or Cavaliershipping, or a Max or Tracy 'ship. Why do you CARE? It's a LIST, of '''SOME''' popular 'ships. It is not ALL, or the ONLY popular 'ships.

:::I think it's uch more reasonable for GymShipping to be included instead of LuckShipping. I understand that you've traveled so many forums that have made this shipping with BrockxLucy very popular in the fandom. But I have also been to a lot of forums myself, both Pokemon-centric and not, and saw that Gym Shipping is a lot popular and rather preferred choice of Shipping for Brock. I especially take into consideration the fans who only find some leisure time in Pokemon. Many of them stated that GymShipping would be a good Shipping for Brock. I've also asked around online the rabid fans I know and found out that they recognize GymShipping more than LuckShipping. First of all, both Brock and Misty had so many interactions and hints that make this shipping somewhat solid. It also poses a threat to the popular and ever-so-strong PokeShipping. Misty had been a main character in the show and most fans know her more than Lucy. In addition to that, Lucy had only appeared in few episodes and she is never brought up by Brock again. Misty, at least, appeared in DP in a form of a lure and Brock is the one who explained to Dawn who she is. I have nothing against Lucy, as she is my favorite Frontier Brain. But LuckShipping does not overshadow GymShipping. It should be GymShipping in the list of popular ships and not LuckShipping. [[User:mikanlamperouge|mikanlamperouge]]
::::If Misty ever gets back as a regular cast member or with a near-canon 'ship that isn't Pokéshipping, we'll see about changing the line-up.

:::::I honestly find BrockxNurse Joy more popular--even for kids. Seriously, I've seen so many fandom works that involve more GymShipping than LuckShipping. I have no particular interest in GymShipping, but a lot of fans still like it. The hints shown in the series were rather convincing and not just a one-time love feeling in Brock's part. I also respect this shipping and don't want this dying for the sake and remembrance of the original series. Like PokeShipping, GymShipping serves as a reminder for fans, old and new, that there were great times spent in the original series. It also goes to show that many fans still would like Misty as the one for Brock, considering all they've been through. When it comes to fandom, I agree that LuckShipping is growing, but it is at the same time a shipping with a very short romance for Brock. Misty, who had been a main character before and a fellow Gym Leader, had more chances to be with Brock. Keep in mind that Misty was always the one who dragged him away from girls. Brock has also shown his good share of care and compassion towards Misty. Many fans also find the two's relationship rather entertaining. A lot of shippers agree to the fact that GymShipping had also pose a big threat to PokeShipping. Brock and Misty have also shaped Ash into the fine trainer he is today. Fan arts, fan videos etc... I've seen more of GymShipping than LuckShipping. There are hardly some LuckShipping works.Okay, I've just stated my opinions about this, and I just want to add that I don't particularly support any shippings with Brock.

==Is this relevant?==
Sure this query will garner a largely negative response, but are Shipping articles really necessary or conducive to the goals and spirit of Bulbapedia? I figured Bulbapedia was about categorizing and listing all the facts pertaining to the Pokémon series of games and all spin-offs, anime, products, etc. Do fan-based pairings created in a sub-culture of the tie-in anime have enough to do with Pokémon to be relevant or edifying to the users of Bulbapedia? This seems like a weird place for fanfiction and, maybe it's just me, doesn't seem to sit right with the rest of the content on the wiki. I mean, what is shipping itself if not "representing rumors, misconceptions, or opinions as fact"? [[User:Podunk|Podunk]] 9:13, 3 June 2010
:All the shipping articles are kept away from the others <s>for fear of contamination</s> and tagged that they may contain speculation rather than cold, hard fact. It's not fanfiction.

Angel10698: /* Trivia */

Hey, I was wondering if we could decide of a color for Iris' infobox here? I have a few ideas in mind:

These are just a couple suggestions (the top right hand one is the one that's on the page now and the top centered one is the one I had originally had on the page.) What do you guys think? Any other suggestions? We have lots of time to decide, but we should try to get an agreement on a color design. Personally, I love the top left hand one and the top centered one. I kind of dislike the top right hand one (the colors don't match well in my opinion). The bottom two I'm kinda mutual about. Thoughts?--[[User:Skystar|Skystar]] 14:17, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
:Maybe a black and white one, considering it is based on the black and white games? [[User:Turtwig A|Turtwig's]] [[Turtwig (Pokémon)|A-B-Cs]] ([[User talk:Turtwig A|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Turtwig A|contribs]]) 14:21, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

==Trivia==
Should it be mentioned that she's the first female companion since Misty to not be based on one of the games' female player characters? --[[User:Goldenpelt|Goldenpelt]] 02:28, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

sounds true

and we might as well add that she's the only anime only female travelling companion too

unless that statement of her being a game character along with Dento is true... [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 02:41, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Dento, I'd believe, but we haven't seen any Sugimori artwork of Iris, have we? --[[User:Goldenpelt|Goldenpelt]] 02:57, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

should we add that she is the only girl character to travel with ash who didn't get her bike ruined by pikachu?[[User:Angel10698|Angel10698]] 00:15, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

== "Iris" ==

Other than the direct assumption that "アイリス" is the English word "Iris", "Airisu" is a girl's name that exists in Japanese. It may not be common but 愛麗子, 愛梨子, and 愛里酢 are all "Airisu", much like Kasumi, Haruka, and Hikari are all girls' names in Japan. Is there a source that names her as "Iris" rather than "Airisu"? -[[User:Ryulong|Ryulong]] 20:22, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
:This is still Western name "Iris" but with fail Kanji assigned to it. There are dozen of Kanji spellings for name "Maria", but it doesn't make it a traditional Japanese name. Also, I don't get what's with these "sources" lately. Really, what the hell? What kind of "source" would you expect to confirm a romanization of a character? Also, if you want to know why her name can't be derived from Japanese, then just look at her closely. She really doesn't look like a typical Japanese character. That'd be your "source". --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 11:54, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

==Move to Iris (anime)==

::Wait and see. First, there's no pattern. We've got [[Ash Ketchum]] not '''Ash Ketchum (anime)'''. The reasons for {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} being separate pages are practical - their full pages were too long. Even if Iris isn't anime-only, that's still no reason to split her. We don't have to split every character to game, anime and manga self. Also, wait and see. I've got a hunch that she is anime-only and even if she does show up in the games, it'll be just a cameo, unworthy of separate article. But I'm not an admin, my hunches don't matter. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 08:25, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

::The fact she has not used a Pokabu says that such an edit shouldn't be made.

:::::Why split them? Dento and Iris will be following Ash for the duration of the BW series. Are you going to argue that Misty's page needn't be split? She only followed Ash for one series. How about May and Dawn? Barry? The game characters will be vastly different than the anime characters, for one, and will definitely be sticking around for near 200 episodes. They will need to be split someday, so why not do it now '''''while the articles are tiny and rarely linked to''''', unless you wanna volunteer to be the one who relinks them all when we decide "yeah we should've split them" 120 episodes into BW. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 00:23, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
::::::IMO, we should base an article on what we know, not what we think will happen. Sure, Dento is a Gym Leader so he'll probably merit two pages eventually, but we don't know a thing about Iris's role in the game ("She has a dragon", which she may not even have in the games, does not automatically relate her to the main quest, which we don't even know that much about...). She may be a mere cameo for all we know, appearing as a random NPC in a city, not doing anything, or just giving away a TM or something. I mean, whatever happened to "wait before it airs" (or in this case "before it releases" too)? I'm not saying your position has no merit, but I think you're taking an extreme position ("Not ever.", as you said over at the Dento page), based on speculation (as likely as it may be; remember we didn't update Ash's Infernape and Torterra pages confirming their evolution after that opening spoiler, even though it was 100% confirmed). And if you're worried about eventual relinking, we could always make Iris (anime) redirect to Iris, link as {{an|Iris}} whenever in an animé context, and if there is an eventual move, we'll be future-proofed.
::::::And I think I'm treading dangerously into "DON'T mess with the status quo" territory, but I think game and Adventures [[Koga]] are more distinct than game and animé [[Barry]]. Just my two cents. '''[[User:Memo326|Memo]]'''[[User talk:Memo326|326]] 01:10, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
:::::::Keep in mind, I didn't create a separate page for Iris, but moved the page here ''just in case''. It can always be moved back if she has ''that small'' of a role in the games (though her presence at the Dragon Tower in the game and ownership of Kibago in the anime makes me think she will have at least a Dawn-size game role). Since I was splitting Dento, I figured I'd do Iris now rather than later, and save us from needing more edits.
:::::::As for Barry's anime/game split... yes, Barry in the anime is based ''directly'' on his game counterpart, but then again, so was Gary.

::::::::Splits should be made when there is too much information to keep in one article, not by any patterns. The difference between Misty and Iris is that Misty has a huge history in the franchise with several Pokémon under her name, appearances as a Gym Leader in every generation, a main character role in the anime for 5 years, lots of manga appearances and even trading cards.

==Obesity==
Could anyone enlighten me as to the rationale behind attributing to Pinpuku a weight number higher than Blissey's? This is hardly a matter akin to Bellossom, which might be shorter than Oddish, but at least appears to be so. Chansey, on the other hand, is very consistent with Pinpuku proportion-wise, as is Blissey with Chansey.

Unless I am missing something, this strikes me as an awkward attempt to make a point about the round stone carried by Pinpuku, which is apparently by far heavier than an egg.- ''unsigned comment from [[User:Unown Lord|Unown Lord]] ([[User talk:Unown Lord|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Unown Lord|contribs]]){{ #if: | {{{2}}} |}}''

It says on here to get a Happiny to evolve you need to use an Oval Stone. Problem with the is Pipie(that would be her nickname, Pearl Version is the game I'm using) can't have it used on her. I tried using it during the day but it didn't work at all. Is there some sort of level requirement or something else I should know about? Pipie is level 15, hatched out of an egg, if that information helps for whatever reason... I think the article should put level requirements on there if there is such.

:Is the Happiny in question '''holding''' the Oval Stone? If not, that's your problem. Happiny needs to hold the Oval Stone in order to evolve. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 17:38, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

== Trivia: Experience Yield ==
Its trivia says it would yield 13,933 experience points if it belongs to a trainer, and is level 100.
But please take a look at the formula [[Experience#Experience_gain_in_battle|here]].
It says:

[[Image:Exp.png]]

So, (1.5 x 255 x 100)7 = 5464.29.
In order to reach 13,933, we should multiply 1.7 times 1.5 times 5464 (what means ''foreign'' Pokémon holding a ''lucky egg''). I ''guess'' we have three options:
*add those information to this page (and also {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Blissey}} and {{p|Chansey}})
*erase some numbers and tell the readers just "Happiny has the highest base experience yield to date"
*change the value. Take out 13,933 and write 5464

I tried that before but someone told me to double-check my grammar (I'm not complaining), then I'm afraid of messing it up again. [[User:Diby esp|Gabriel Rocha (Diby esp)]] 14:13, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

So Meowth is either male, or a female that is hiding it even from her best friends for more than 500 episodes? Maybe in other animes but not this one. {{unsigned|Aura-Knight}}

Usually I'm on the side of openess, but this is just rediculous. The characters have referred to him as a he in the anime. And I believe he uses a Japanese pronoun for males if the dub is your issue. And I highly doubt the orignal version never mention Meowth's gender before.

I laughed at these rediculous debates on Meowth's gender, everyone knows he's male. I was just thinking before with the debate on Charizard, the way this site's going they might aswell change Meowth to unknown too. I thought that as a joke. ([[User:GT4GTR|GT4GTR]] 11:06, 22 December 2008 (UTC))

== Night Slash ==

I think that Meowth ''did'' use Night Slash on Barry's Empoleon in [[DP103]]. It looked nothing like any time it ever used Fury Swipes or Scratch. Meowth's claws glowed white when it used the attack, and if you'll remember Aiding the Enemy, Honchkrow's wings glowed white as it used the very attack Meowth is revealed to be learning. And even if it is just learning the move now, remember that James's Cacnea pulled off a successful Drain Punch while still in the process of learning the move. [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno.

:If you saw, and paid attention, to the episode at all, you'd know that the stance Meowth took was a pre-Night Slash use, which he failed to execution because he claimed to be still in the middle of perfecting it.

== Character? and Official artwork(anime)? ==

In [[Jessie]] and [[James]] articles they have their official artwork at the top of their pages, and under the 'Character' section their is a current anime screenshot of them.
Is it possible for some one to replace the current picture ontop to Meowth's official artwork, and either move the current picture up there down to the 'Character' section or add a newer picture if it's possible,--Thanks [[User:XXKojiMusaXX|XXKojiMusaXX]] 22:35, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:I think that because Jessie and James have appeared in the main series games, being a boss in {{game|Yellow}}, their Official Art takes priority. While Meowth hasn't really appeared in the games, and all appearences in other media is based on the anime, so Anime "art" (screenshots) take priority over official art.

:This appears to be the rule for other characters as well. [[Brock]] has his official Art as the {{ci|Pewter}} [[Gym Leader]], while someone like [[Gary]] has anime art, having not really appeared in the games. If you want to know the Official policy you should check with an admin though. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 06:12, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

==Episode Count==

Pikachu has been in every episode except the special episodes (Pokemon Chronicles), but Meowth does. Since Meowth appeared in the second episode, would his inclusions to the chronicles episode make his appearances in the anime be more than Ash's Pikachu, or tie, or am I forgetting Meowth wasn't in a few episodes after EP002? --[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 23:38, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

==Meowth's Ability===

Meowth isn't picking up things--though he hasn't win any battle--expect for that cheating on Brock's Onix for the right to Togepi. I am assuming Meowth's ability is Technician--as he is usually on that made the gadgets and mecha for his care-takers, Jessie and James.- ''unsigned comment from {{u|Thinksan}} ([[User talk:Thinksan|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Thinksan|contribs]]) ''

== Tickle ==

Meowth uses a "tickle attack", which I assume is like {{m|Tickle}}, but he uses it in [[EP104]] to help Pikachu defeat a Rhydon. Tickle's not introduced until Gen III, so I doubt we can add it to his move list. Should it be put in Trivia, or is it not important enough? {{unsigned|Jazzmoth}}
:Tickling =/= Tickle the attack. That was during Generation I and the move did not exist until Generation II. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 21:41, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
*In the English dub, Meowth actually shouts 'Tickle Attack!' as he does it, so in a way he is actually using a move even if it's not (or, wasn't at the time) an in-game move (Pikachu has many moves that are not in game).

== [[Mankey]] redirect ==

The entire reason it wasn't a disambig is because Ash caught his {{TP|Ash|Primeape}} directly in that stage of evolution. The fact that it evolved onscreen doesn't change the fact that Ash caught it afterward; it never belonged to Ash in the Mankey stage. The only way that Mankey would be a Pokémon that belonged to Ash before evolving, which is what your disambig listing said, is if Ash had caught it before it evolved, which didn't happen.

For the record, an unrelated Mankey Ash caught in the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga is pretty much unnotable since Ash quickly traded it for a bogus map. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:43, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Heya, {{BASEPAGENAME}}. First, just letting you know that the Project Locations has changed quite a bit recently due to the instructions of the new Project Leader, me. The project has been updated and visually redesigned to make it easier to process. Little tasks and goals have been added to project page to make things run better and to help expand location articles.

I believe that the [[Biker]] article should have the edits that I made to it and don't see why you object to me mentioning one of their most commonly used pokemon, I appreciate that you are taking the care to try to help the wiki and stop bad people. But could I please edit the page saying their Pokémon?--[[User:Pokemonguy1|Pokemonguy1]] 23:36, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
:If you want to mention an example of the Pokémon they use, fine, go ahead. BUT, that was not the entire case of your last edit on the page. You also added in adjectives such as ''"cool", tough, cool hip'', all of which were not needed. --'''[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy]][[User Talk:Theryguy512|512]]''' 23:45, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Another example is when you edit an article the same was as someone else does at the same time, or don't change it, then click "save", nothing will change and you won't even appear in the history.

== Missingno. ==

Missingno. is a real Pokémon. It was programmed into the game. It has a cry. It can be captured within a [[Poké Ball]]. It has a specific set of level-up moves. It can be used in battle. It has TM/HM compatibility. It has base stats. Those are the traits that constitute real Pokémon- heck, even TM/HM compatibility is optional! The point is, no matter whether Missingno.'s presence in the game was an accident, an oversight, or the product of a particularly bored programmer, it is in there. Thus it is as real as any other Pokémon in the game. And don't even say that it hasn't appeared in the anime, because by that logic, Porygon2, Porygon-Z, and Abomasnow aren't real, either. My point being, Glitch Pokémon and "official" Pokémon are equal, and any attempt to pretend otherwise is a hideous insult.

I am going to re-add the information you removed from Missingno.'s page and insist that you don't revert it. I don't want an edit war going on here. If you DO revert it, I will be forced to bring the matter to the attention of someone with authority, who is not biased against Glitch Pokémon. OK? I'm [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]].

== Hey! ==

Missingno., 'M, PkMn, and A are real Pokémon. They were programmed into the game. They have cries. They can be captured within Poké Balls. They have specific sets of level-up moves. They can be used in battle. They have TM/HM compatibility. They have base stats. Those are the traits that constitute real Pokémon- heck, even TM/HM compatibility is optional! The point is, no matter whether those Glitch Pokémon's presences in the game was an accident, an oversight, or the product of a particularly bored programmer, they are in there. Thus they are as real as any other Pokémon in the game. And don't even say that it hasn't appeared in the anime, because by that logic, Porygon2, Porygon-Z, and Abomasnow aren't real, either. My point being, Glitch Pokémon and "official" Pokémon are equal, and any attempt to pretend otherwise is a hideous insult.

So please stop changing the Did you know page, OK? I'm [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]]. See my new and improved user page, and [[User talk:Missingno. Master|comment on it!]] 12:39, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
:Dude, you are SERIOUSLY gettingon my nerves. Saying that Missigno. is a real Pokémon is like saying that Pinnochio is a real boy, or that the Trojan Horse was an actual living horse. For the last time, GLITCHES '''ARE ''NOT''''' POKÉMON!!! Also, get your facts right; {{p|Abomasnow}} [[DP120|HAS been in the anime.]] --'''[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy]][[User Talk:Theryguy512|512]]''' 20:38, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
::Oh yeah, forgot Abomasnow appeared in that episode. No, glitches are not Pokémon. Glitch Pokémon, however, ARE Pokémon. Now, I notice that while I have provided a large paragraph of reasoning to back up my claim, you have nothing more than "GLITCHES '''ARE ''NOT''''' POKÉMON!!!" and the really bad analogy with Pinnochio and the Trojan Horse. I mean, did the Trojan Horse whinny, gallop, or eat? No! Do real horses whinny, gallop, and eat? Yes! Did Pinnochio urinate? No! Do real people urinate? Yes! Do Glitch Pokémon learn moves by leveling up, TMs, and/or HMs, participate in battles, evolve in some cases, have set sprites, base stats, level-up moves, TM/HM compatibility, and cries? Yes they do, and so do regular Pokémon. In short, Glitch Pokémon and regular Pokémon are perfectly equal, except for the fact that Glitch Pokémon, for no apparent reason, find themselves to be the subject of much predjudice and misunderstanding by people like you. See, this is what I intend to fix. I intend to raise awareness of this issue and change the general public attitude. That's why I started the [[User:Missingno.

== Redirects ==

Why is it that, whenever I fix a double redirect whenever you're on, you then make an edit to it for the sole purpose of adding a space, claiming that you were "fixing" it? The redirects work just fine either with or without the space (there are also a few that use colons, which also work just fine), hence there's no point to make an edit just to add a space to one. It's like making an edit for the sole purpose of switching one instance of "{{tt|defence|UK English}}" to "{{tt|defense|US English}}" (such an action is discouraged even though the latter is preferred), or switching one instance of "{{tt|Bubblebeam|correct capitalization}}" to "{{tt|BubbleBeam|incorrect capitalization}}"...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 16:46, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

::Actually, changing Bubblebeam to BubbleBeam '''''is''''' allowed. BubbleBeam is the correct spelling, and has been since the beginning of the games (except for the TCG attacks, which are quoted from the cards). Anything that isn't BubbleBeam is a spelling error and needs to be fixed: an edit by itself perfectly okay. And that goes for any other move, those aren't just redirects going to the correct pages, they are spelling errors.

::Sorry, I didn’t realize there was a discussion “ongoing”. But really, no debate has occurred since January, at which time adding “The” was favored.

:::As for my thoughts on "the The", I still think the pages should be moved to the title with the The, as VIZ's first volume uses the The, and I believe Chuang Yi's version uses the The for all four volumes.

== Wait, ''WHAT?'' Gay? ==

''"Also, it was strongly hinted that main character Ash was gay."''

Now, I haven't read this entire series (I've read the Viz translations of volumes 2 and 4, and the first 3 chapters of volume 1 in Japanese), however I have seen ''nothing'' suggesting that Satoshi is gay. In fact, quite the opposite. Unlike his anime counterpart he actually shows ''blatant attraction to women''. For specific examples, Shigeru's sister Satsuki and Kasumi's sisters Sakura, Ayame and Botan come to mind. --[[User:Sato|Sato]] 11:31, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
:It's probably because of the [[Ritchie]] part. I've read it but I think they were just buddies. Ash seemed more attracted to girls. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 20:48, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

:I agree with Sato's statement. Unlike in the majority of the TV series, Satoshi/Ash may even borderline being Takeshi/Brock's partner in crime when it comes to girl hunts. More evidence of this being when they snuck up on Kasumi/Misty in the bath scene in the original version. Either way, I am yet to find evidence regarding the main character being 'gay' as some put it (and naturally, humorous gags do not count). [[User:HechEff|HechEff]] 20:20, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

== Regarding "the The" ==

Just throwing this out there... I still think this should be moved to "The Electric Tale of Pikachu".

Can you help me with a few things? One, update [[User:ht14/Blue's Scizor|this article]] for me... second, is it ok if you also make an article for Golduck, and possibly Porygon2?

:Yeah, you did... when you welcome a new user, Ataro, all you need to do is write <nowiki>{{subst:welcome}}</nowiki> and (if you feel so inclined) a personal message such as "Welcome!" in the summary box. Copy-pasting can sometimes cause errors... not to mention it's more tedious. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 06:14, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Yo, I have a problem with editing my page. I registered my e-mail address, and I still fail to edit it. Help, please. [[User:A President Named C-Dawg|A President Named C-Dawg]].

but from what I've heard you have to do mainspace edits first... [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 07:21, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

== Temper ==

I realise that I'm bringing up something from a few days ago, and I realise that some people are idiots, but in cases like [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ABrennan1357&action=historysubmit&diff=1152186&oldid=1152185 this one] just [[BP:COC|stay calm]].

== Hey ==

I know that both articles for Yanappu were created during the same time, but that doesn't give you the right to place a delete tag on someone else's userpage, even if they're the same. The right thing to do would be to inform them on their talk page. Also, the content to be delete shouldn't be replaced. Please remember that next time. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jello]][[User Talk:Jello|talk]] 23:56, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

== Regarding Palkia's page ==

First of all, I didn't notice the information was on [[Palkia (Pokémon)|Palkia's species]] page, so sorry about bringing it up again. Second, I checked the Bulbapedia policy and didn't find that rule you mentioned listed. So where might it be located just out of curiosity and for future reference?

== Talk pages ==

Hi Ataro. I realise talk pages are pretty much a free-for-all when it comes to spelling and grammar and stuff like that, but it would be really appreciated if you could keep your comments on the same line unless you have a good reason for breaking them up into paragraphs. It makes it a lot easier to read this way - and might even help you practise writing for the mainspace. Cheers, —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 11:12, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, I'm just not into the whole paragraph thing...I find it easier to read by breaking into little parts so I don't mess up and read the same line twice...and it happens a lot [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 11:29, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
