[[File:Jubelstadt tv.png|frame|right|Jubilife TV]]
'''Jubilife TV''' (Japanese: '''テレビコトブキ''' ''TV Kotobuki'') is a {{wp|television station}} headquartered in [[Jubilife City]], [[Sinnoh]]. Its broadcasts reach residents across the region, spreading information far and wide. The building itself is not accessible until after the {{player}} has obtained the {{badge|Coal}} and defeated the [[Galactic Grunt]]s to the north of the city; until this point a [[clown]] will block the entrance.

The headquarters is also home to a [[time|daily]] lottery, where, depending on how much the drawn number matches the [[Trainer ID number]] of [[Pokémon]] owned by the drawing {{pkmn|Trainer}}, he or she may win a new backdrop for {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s (an {{DL|Poké Ball#List of Generation I Poké Balls|Ultra Ball}} in Platinum), a [[PP Up]], an [[Exp. Share]], a [[Max Revive]], or even, if the numbers match exactly, a {{DL|Poké Ball#List of Generation I Poké Balls|Master Ball}}.

On the second floor, Trainers can dress up their Pokémon using their [[Accessory|Accessories]]. On the third floor, players can see various records set by those they have mixed records with. Additionally, a man on the third floor allows the player to activate [[Mystery Gift]].

=={{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}==
===Trainers===
A Trainer appears in the lobby and can be fought once a day in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. The Trainer that appears depends on the current [[Days of the week|day]]. If the game is saved in the lobby, the previous Trainer will still be there and can be battled on the other days until the player leaves.

Talk:Dr. Footstep

2009-08-11T04:40:17Z

Clockspider:

Several Pokémon, such as [[Unown]] and the [[Magnemite]] evolutionary line, do not say anything at any level, other than "Shhnnn... shhnnn..." This should probably be noted but I don't know the best way to word it, nor do I know all of the Pokémon who are like this. They seem to mostly be the "non-biological" ones... [[User:DocSigma|DocSigma]] 13:03, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
:Adding onto that, both my {{p|Drifblim}} and my {{p|Golbat}} said something about being shunned... but they said it at LV. 4 happiness and LV. 1 happiness, respectively. We should probably put something on there that tells the reader that some Pokémon say different things, but I'm not sure how to word it...--The [[Blastoise (Pokémon)|Kk]][[Gary's Blastoise|ll]][[Blastoise (TCG)|nn]][[User:Kkllnn|ator]] [[User Talk:Kkllnn| blastoise]] 22:08, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Okay, based on my Lileep, Haunter, Vulpix and Lickilicky, I added a couple of others. I remember a full L4 Ghost would say something about chomping on the trainer's neck, but I forgot some of it.
- ''unsigned comment from [[User:Draikonor|Draikonor]] ([[User talk:Draikonor|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Draikonor|contribs]]){{ #if: | {{{2}}} |}}''

Clefairy's quote on level 4 (I got the ribbon on this level): "If I said there can be friendship between Pokémon and people, will <sc>Pokémon</sc>'s friends understand? But if you see <sc>Trainer</sc> and <sc>Pokémon</sc>, you will understand. Because <sc>Trainer</sc> and <sc>Pokémon</sc> are friends!" - Maybe different Pokémon sometimes have different level 4 quotes as well? [[User:RegalStar|RegalStar]] 22:58, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps we should come up with some sort of classification system of sorts. The responses seem to depend on biology and "intelligence" of the Pokémon in question. [[User:PDL|PDL]] 01:30, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

== Classification ==

From my observations, I have figured that there are TWO sets of classification determining which set of lines a Pokémon would say when it is presented to Dr. Footstep. Well, actually, three to be more exact:

1. Whether the game characterizes the Pokémon's species as either "Powerful," "Cute," "Creepy," or "Ditzy." (Note that these are merely the terms that I am using to describe the tone of each set of lines assigned to the species, not taken directly from within the game.)

2. Whether the Pokémon has an actual footprint or not, as indicated by their Pokédex entry. The Pokémon with footprints have lines with more casual, down-to-earth tones, while those without footprints have lines with more ambiguous, mysterious tones. I think this is what some of us have meant by saying, "ghosts appear to have different lines."

3. And there are the "voiceless" Pokémon, like Magnemite, Unown, or even Kabuto and etc. These appear to be Pokémon which the game sees as "not having human-familiar features" enough to be given a humanlike voice. These are usually the species with no distinguishable "face," or "expression".

I'm sure that many of us by now have visited this guy enough to observe these patterns, or agree with it at least (well, maybe it's just me. -_- Dr. Footstep is one of my personal favorite NPC to visit in my D/P games) It's just that I myself am unsure of whether I am in a position to make such an extensive edit to a page. (also not too confident with my own experience with HTML) I humbly suggest, maybe we could make a chart of some sort that includes each set of lines under columns and rows indicating the classifications listed above? {{unsigned|Crystallinefeathers}}

== His two Japanese names ==

I bet 100 bucks that Futomaki is his real surname, while "Footsteps Doctor" is his (probably self-proclaimed) title. The English version just refers him to as his last name (Footstep). --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 16:22, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

== New LV 2 ==

I just found a new lv 2, (1 heart) interpretation

“Hnurr… Me? Uhm… There are lots of kinds of moves. I like those Dark-type moves, oh, and those Dragon-type moves, to… How would they be for this Pokémon? Will they be for me? Or a no, no, no sort of thing? Hnurr…”

[[User:BaconBoy|Corvy]] 22:15, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

== New LV 1 ==

So I just decided to give contests a try, and I pulled out a Buneary from my Box 1. I decided to see what the good Dr had to say regarding its feelings toward me, considering I put it into the box almost after it catching it a while ago. This is what I got....

"Aw....Mike only plays with other Pokemon. Buneary feels neglected. Does Mike not like Buneary that much? Buneary will try harder for Mike. Please be nicer to me!"

Just thought I'd share that to help get the page up to date.
BTW, Buneary and I are on much better terms now :P
--[[User:Agent Zero|Agent Zero]] 02:51, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

:Added. '''[[Team Rocket|R.A.]] [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Hunter]] [[User Talk:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Blade]]''' 12:08, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

I think this rating is used for Pokémon that have a happiness value of zero. So it could be like a LVL 0. [[User:PDL|PDL]] 01:15, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

:Wouldn't matter. It's like floors in a building. You wouldn't say you're on the zeroith floor. You'd say you're on the first floor. Also like tiers/brackets in a tournament. You're in the first round/match/whatever. '''[[Team Rocket|R.A.]] [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Hunter]] [[User Talk:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Blade]]''' 03:29, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
::... Except most Pokémon don't start out at that low a happiness rating. Most start off at a happiness rating of 70 while Buneary is special in that it starts off with a happiness rating of zero. Also your building analogy doesn't make sense either since buildings often have basements to them. Either way, it doesn't constitute as a "lvl.1" rating since you have to raise the happiness to even get to the same level most pokémon start out with when they are first caught! [[User:PDL|PDL]] 05:06, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

== Another from...0? ==

Another one from an angry rapidash

Why does TRAINER always use other Pokémon? Am I not needed much? Would I have been better off if I remained in the wild? No, I should give this Trainer a little more of a chance...

If I'm right, Palkia reacted like that, too. {{unsigned|Brightfire10}}

== Possible 0/-1 rating? ==

I got this one with my freshly-caught Houndour in Platinum.

That TRAINER...What is that Trainer thinking? Why make me join the team, then call upon me for nothing? Am I considered useless? Is the Trainer regretting having me? Does the Trainer dare disrespect this HOUNDOUR so easily?

He sounds pretty mad. Did Platinum add a bunch of new analyses or something?
