==Summary==
{{spoilers}}
The world of Pokémon is truly a wonder, the planet is filled with these magnificent creatures. Some live in the sky, some live beneath the ocean, some travel the world and some exist only in dreams. Many of these Pokémon live peacefully among humans, however some humans seek to exploit Pokémon for their own means. One of the Pokémon so desired is the legendary {{p|Groudon}}, coveted by the villainous [[Team Magma]]. This story is about one man who went looking for Groudon, yet found something far more powerful that would make his wish come true...

Once every thousand years, the [[Millennium Comet]] is visible from earth for only seven nights... and now the time for it to appear among the stars has arrived again. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} arrive at the location where a carnival is due to be held to celebrate the comet's arrival... but despite [[Brock]]'s guidebook guiding them to the correct spot, there's no sign of a park, or even anything but open plains. As it's late at night, everyone decides to get some sleep and resume the search the next morning.

During the night Pikachu wakes up when he hears trucks from a distance. It then wakes everyone up, as the workers are starting to erect the carnival. A yellow pickup then parks on the side and a purple-haired man then come out with a briefcase. He then takes a magician stick and opens the briefcase. Pink balloons then magically come out of his briefcase, as he hit them with his stick. A woman then comes out with two fans and hit the balloons with them. Once all balloons are forming a circle, they pop up, and a huge tent is slowly created by the magician. Everyone stares in wonder at the magician, while Brock (of course) has his eyes on the woman. Soon the carnival is erected, and it sure looks like a lot of fun.

====Day One of the Millennium Comet====

The day is spent by the gang enjoying the various rides and attractions of the carnival. Team Rocket are naturally nearby, but don't have time to enjoy themselves as they've been put to work handing out flyers to everyone to announce 'The Great Butler's Magic Show' while disguised as clowns. Ash pick up one of the flyers, and [[Max]] notices that the flyer features the magician they saw last night, creating the tent. The gang decide to check the show out, thinking that if he can do a magic show as well as he can create a tent then they're in for a treat.

Soon, the gang are watching the show and it's turning out to be even better than expected. [[Butler]], the purple-haired magician, putting his white hat on an empty table. After creating a flock of {{p|Swablu}} out of thin air he then slaps the hat with his stick, and when he takes off the hat, a {{p|Kirlia}} suddenly appears! Butler then calls on his {{p|Mightyena}} for another trick. Butler seals back Kirlia, puts a red cloth over it, then burns it off. Out of the smoke comes [[Diane]], Butler's assistant, carrying a crystal. Brock applauds, declaring that Butler is amazing. Glowing rays come out of the crystal, and Max suddenly hears a voice. The voice tells him that 'it' is sealed inside the crystal. Max rushes to the scene, followed by Ash. Max tells Butler that he heard a voice from the crystal. Naturally Butler is surprised... but not too surprised. Butler then claims their arrival was in an imprecable timing for his next trick, the 'Burning Box'. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] (still disguised as clowns) then carry the box and put Ash and Max in it. Diane encourages them, and Butler tells the audience that Ash, Max and Pikachu are fellow magicians, and will escape the box before his {{p|Dusclops}} destroys it with {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Butler summons Dusclops, which slowly approaches the box. The entire audience are on tentahooks, especially {{an|May}} and Brock. Dusclops then fires on the box but before it does so, Ash and Max are transported away by a machine under the stadium. Butler says not only did they vanish from the box, but also teleported to the entrance of the dome! The flashlights then show Ash and Max, and while Ash laps up the applause Max isn't sure what to do. May wonders if Ash and Max will tell her how they did the trick, while all Brock is hoping for is that he gets introduced to Diane.

Ash is still waving to the crowd... when suddenly Team Rocket (suspended from a balloon) grab Pikachu off his back and put him in an electricity-proof container and take off their disguises. Ash demands Pikachu back, but Team Rocket prepare a trick of their own... they're going to make Pikachu disappear along with Kirlia and Mightyena which they've also nabbed. {{MTR}} has been waiting at the side and opens the roof and joins his teammates as they make their getaway. Ash goes to send out one of his Pokémon however Butler stops him as he has one more trick up his sleeve. He orders Dusclops to use {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} which sends Pikachu flying back to Ash who decides to do an encore and has Pikachu fire a trusty {{m|Thunderbolt}} which certainly charges up Team Rocket and releases Butler's Pokémon. Butler has Dusclops finish things off with {{m|Night Shade}} which sends Team Rocket blasting off again. The audience applauds loudly, and May notes that the audience think Team Rocket were part of the act... hopefully they won't come back for a final bow. Max is relieved everything worked out, but is still curious about Butler's crystal.

After the show, Max asks Butler and Diane about the crystal, and they respond by saying the crystal contains a Pokémon named {{p|Jirachi}}. Butler tells everyone that Jirachi only awakens once every 1000 years, and is sleeping inside the crystal, which acts like a cocoon. To wake up Jirachi, the crystal needs two things; the Millennium Comet to be visible in the night sky and a best friend chosen by destiny. Max happens to be the chosen one, so Diane gives him the crystal and as the crystal is due to appear in the sky that night it seems Max's new friend will awaken soon.

At twilight, May buys a Wish Maker, a sacred item that can grant one wish when its panels are closed while facing the comet. The stallholder tells May that she has to close a flap on the Wish Maker every night the comet is in the sky to make her wish come true. Soon fireworks are going off to celebrate the arrival of the comet, with many of the fireworks taking the forms of Pokémon. Afterwards the fair closes down for the night.

Ash, May and Brock talks how about the world can change in a thousand years. The clouds then go off, revealing the comet glowing magnificently in the night sky. Soon Max is asleep with the crystal in his arms. May then starts singing her mother's lullaby. As Max sleeps, the crystal glows, goes off Max's hands then float in the air. Then, a mysterious light surrounds it, and Jirachi appears! Max introduces everyone to Jirachi. Diane then comes and Ash tells him that the prophecy was true. Diane tells them to pass the night in her bus. Inside, Max asks about wishes, then want snacks. At first, everyone said Jirachi can't grant wishes until Ash saw a bag of potato chips on Max's legs. Then, more and more snacks appears, filling the whole bus! The doors then open, with Diane with Butler coming and asking what happened. Max tells them he wished for candy, and hid wish came true! Diane picks up some cheese puffs, look at them then says those are the same from the snack-bar which suddenly lost all of its merchandise. Jirachi didn't create the treats, it teleported them away. May then gets irate and blames Max for this. Ashamed, he asks what should he and Jirachi should do. Brock suggests teleporting the food back to the store. If Jirachi was able to get the candies from the store, it could also teleport them back there. May yells at Jirachi to 'get rid of the problem'. Jirachi agrees, but from its point of view, 'the problem' to get rid of was May, not the snacks! It teleports May in the load of snacks, and falls asleep. Ash, Brock and May are then forced to take the candies back to the store by themselves.

Close by, another creature has sensed Jirachi's reawakening. It is {{p|Absol}}, the disaster Pokémon. It takes off towards the fair, heading for Jirachi... and Max.

====Day Two of the Millennium Comet====

The sun rises on a brand new day, and Max eagerly waits for Jirachi to wake up which it soon does and in no time is happily flying around Butler's van. With Team Rocket having left Butler's employment, Ash and Brock are now his new clowns. Max goes to the amusement park with Jirachi and have fun the whole day. At twilight, Absol can be seen rushing to the park. May folds the 'Day 2 of the Wishing Star' while she's carrying a lighting rig, but hits a leg of wood and it starts to fall. She asks for Max's help, however Jirachi is far more interesting in playing than helping and steals Max's glasses. But Max hears an eerie sound coming from the mirror. The mirror breaks, revealing Absol! Butler recognises Absol, a Pokémon which is known to appear just before a disaster. Absol runs after Max and Jirachi. May, seeing her brother in danger, summons {{TP|May|Torchic}} and orders an {{m|Ember}} but the attack is far too weak and Absol continues to approach Max dangerously. Ash sends in Pikachu telling him to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} which succeeds in hurting Absol and sending it flying back... but also makes it even angrier. Jirachi tells Max that Absol is here for it and then teleports Pikachu and Torchic away. The two reappear far above the tent, and fall although the tent cushions their fall. Now there is nothing protecting Max and Jirachi, however Absol then changes its target and rushes towards the gang when Butler opens a booby-trap and Absol falls into it. The trap then release a cage with Absol in it. Kirlia then uses {{m|Hypnosis}} to send it to sleep. During night, May sits on a rock and folds the second panel of her Wish Maker and then notices Butler going back to the tent with something. That's right, it's Jirachi! Butler puts it on some machine that would create a Groudon, to get revenge on Team Magma, who fired him and made a mockery of his Magical tricks. He then asks Jirachi to open its true eye 'Millennium Eye' but Jirachi refuses. Dusclops then starts torturing Jirachi until its Millennium Eye is opened. Absol was actually there to protect Jirachi from Butler...but it can't do a thing since it's in a cage. The gang then sees a beam coming out of the tent. Butler's machines explodes, and Max rushes to a severely injured Jirachi. He then flees but Dusclops blocks him. Absol then breaks free of the cage and KOs Dusclops. Butler then send his Mightyena to run after Diane's bus. Mightyena then sticks some sort of GPS under the bus, which allow Butler to keep track of all their movements.

====Day Three of the Millennium Comet====

Diane is driving everyone out across some very bumpy terrain, when Ash falls down, with May, Max and Jirachi laughs. When night comes, Brock starts cooking and May closes the Wish Maker's third panel and then joins Diane in the bus. She tells her that she and Butler were childhood friends, and the last time she saw a delighted Butler was long ago, before the Groudon Project. She just wanted him as a magician, not someone with all-powerful mythology Pokémon.

====Day Four of the Millennium Comet====

Ash and Max have fun at skipping stones on the lake, and Max wins. That same night, May takes her Wish Maker then fold the panel of 'Day 4 of the Wishing Star'. Max is getting nervous so he went to see Ash near the Lake. Ash tells him that he, too, once had a friend but they had to separate each other and they never met each other since then. But he claim his pal will be in his heart, so does will Jirachi be in Max's heart.

====Day Five of the Millennium Comet====

The bus manages to get stuck in the mud, so everyone helps out. Afterwards, everyone is covered in mud, and all laughs. May then takes her Wish Maker then fold the panel of 'Day 5 of the Wishing Star'. Each time she does so, Max become sad as this only tells him that he and Jirachi will part ways soon.

====Day Six of the Millennium Comet====

The gang arrives at Forina, Jirachi's home place. Many other Pokémon lives there, such as Nuzleaf, Breloom, Tropius, Linoone, Flygon, Altaria etc... The gang is then greeted by Absol, showing them Forina. May clears 'Day 6 of the Wishing Star'. Only 24 hours left... Max can't get to sleep as he worries about the little thing.

====Day Seven of the Millennium Comet====

Absol leads the gang to a cave, the same cave Jirachi absorbs the comet's power and falls asleep for another 1000 years. As Jirachi was going to open his Millenium Eye, spikes comes out of the walls and purple energy beams capture Jirachi! Butler is finally gonna bring Groudon back to life. Then he sets all the machines A-OK, while Absol and Flygon breaks the spikes. Flygon takes Ash and Max to a ride, and they managed to get Jirachi back, while Butler sends his Salamence to fight against them. Groudon is slowly rising as Butler watches. Groudon is then completely formed as the gang stand behind it. Groudon then starts sucking energy from the earth as Absol attacks it. Groudon's left claws then becomes slimy blue-green tentacles and engulfs Absol away! Groudon rear spikes becomes tentacles, too, chasing every Pokémon. Team Rocket then arrives, but gets engulfed as Groudon was trying to get the Altaria. A scene is then shown in Groudon's stomach ; Absol, many Pokémon and Team Rocket! Other Pokémon are getting 'eaten' while Butler claims this isn't the Groudon he wanted, as if Groudon was an evil beast! Having the taste not only for Pokémon energy, but also human energy, Groudon was going to eat Butler, but Diane blocks the tentacle and get sucked in instead! Butler realizes how to stop Groudon ; put Jirachi back on the machine and reverse the polarity. With the help of Ash, he gets to the machine, while May and Brock gets eaten! Butler makes an ill movement and drops the shard with Groudon's data but Ash manages to catch it and bringing it back to Butler. As soon as the machine is started, Groudon approaches and launches its tentacles on Jirachi, but Butler shields Jirachi and get sucked instead. Groudon, angry, pour its gooey substance over the machine, but Jirachi starts glowing. Groudon is slowly dragged by a white meteor made by Jirachi to the Millennium Comet, and then explodes, releasing all Pokémon and human alike it ate. Jirachi then descends the sky and asks Max one final wish ; the lullaby. Everyone starts singing while Jirachi returns inside the crystal who sink in the earth. Max cries for a short time, and wishes Jirachi a good night and sweet dreams.

====The End of the Millennium Comet====

Butler and Diane stays in Forina's untamed nature, as they leave the group. Brock reminds May of last night, and she takes her Wish Maker, only to see that she didn't fold the 'Day 7 of the Wishing Star' but says it doesn't matter after all. As the group leaves, Jirachi talks to Max using telepathy and say that they will always stay best friends forever.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Fake Groudon.png|300px|thumb|right|The fake Groudon (actually a manifestation of pure evil)]]
* The prologue for this movie shows the main [[legendary Pokémon]] from the first five movies. It shows {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Latios}}, and {{p|Latias}}. However {{p|Mew}}, the [[legendary birds]], and {{p|Suicune}} were absent.
* This is the first Pokémon movie to go directly to video for its American release.
* The events of this movie happen between the episodes ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]'' and ''[[AG035|Win, Lose or Drew!]]'', and premiered in Japan between those episodes.
* The ending song, ''[[Make a Wish]]'', is the first time that the U.S. dub left the original Japanese lyrics performed by ''Asuca Hayashi''. It was also combined with English lyrics performed by ''Cindy Mizelle''.
* This movie manifests itself in the form of a cameo in Pokémon Colosseum. The trainer is named Rider Zalla, and owns a Jirachi (the star), Flygon, Absol ([[wild Pokémon]] befriended during the movie), Kirlia, Mightyena, and a Dusclops (Pokémon belonging to [[Butler]]). Interestingly enough, she (possibly a reference to Max's motherly role for Jirachi, or Diane, as the trainer also has blonde hair) can be found as the 77th trainer on Battle Mode's Single Battle Mount Battle.
* Also, in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the two [[Ace Trainer]]s that appear on the southernmost part of {{rt|229}} have their [[party|teams]] based on those of Butler and Diane. In fact, in the Japanese version, they are have the same names as them, but the English translation team did not notice the relation to the movie characters.
* Two of the main non-legendary Pokémon of the movie, {{p|Absol}} and {{p|Flygon}}, are eventually both obtained by [[Drew]] and then used to battle {{an|May}} in the [[Kanto]] [[Grand Festival]].
* Even though {{AP|Treecko}} and {{tp|Brock|Mudkip}} appear on the box cover, they never even appear in the main story of the movie. In fact, out of all the main characters' Pokémon, {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|May|Torchic}} were the only two to appear, with two exceptions outside of the main plot, the opening sequence when Treecko, Mudkip, and the main characters' other Pokémon do appear while eating and the ending beach scene.
* When traveling to Forina, an instrumental version of [[Advance Adventure]] is played in the background and on the DVD main menu.
* This is the last Pokémon movie released to UK DVD until ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]'' years later.
* This is the only {{series|Advanced Generation}} movie in which {{p|Munchlax}} does not appear, as well as the only AG movie in which a Generation IV Pokémon does not appear, for that matter.
* This was the last movie that Tomiko Suzuki lent her voice. Tomiko died of a heart attack a week and a half before the cinema release.
* While the previous two movies kept the original Japanese background music for the main feature, this is the first movie to also keep the title sequence music.

==Errors==
* During the magic show in the dub, [[Butler]] calls for his {{p|Dusclops}} to use an attack called "Capitata", while in the Japanese version, Butler says 'Onibi!' which is {{m|Will-O-Wisp}}'s official Japanese name. It's unknown how the name "Capitata" got into the script or final product, but it seems than every dub used 'Capitata!' rather than {{m|Will-O-Wisp}}.

==Dub edits==
*In the beginning, Ash says the person who last comes up the hill is a {{p|Slowpoke}} (May calls Max a {{p|Slowbro}}). However, in most translations from English, the joke was eliminated, replacing "slow" to each language's response.
* In the dub when Ash is talking with Max, he makes a reference to [[Misty]], though not by name.

'''Lance''' (Japanese: '''ワタル''' ''Wataru'') is a {{pkmn|master}} {{type2|Dragon}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a member of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]] and the League [[Champion]] in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]].

==In the games==
In [[Generation I]] and the [[Generation III]] remakes, Lance is the fourth and final member of the [[Elite Four]]. He must be defeated before facing [[Blue (game)|Blue]], the [[League Champion]]. By the [[Generation II]] games, he has proceeded to become League Champion.

He raises {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon, which are both hard to catch and raise, but he prefers the superiority of Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be virtually indestructible.

Known as a cool and heroic Trainer, Lance has a large fan-following. Lance also seems to have a liking for capes, as he is often seen buying identical capes at the [[Celadon Department Store]].

Lance's grandfather was the elder of a famous clan of Dragon masters. [[Clair]] is his cousin, and his hometown is [[Blackthorn City]].

Lance appeared at [[Mahogany Town]] to help the player fight Team Rocket in [[Johto]]. Lance rewards the player with the {{m|Whirlpool}} HM for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans.

===Pokémon===
This listing is for Lance's Pokémon in the video games in which he has appeared.

===={{g|Stadium 2}}====

In Pokémon Stadium 2, Lance is the champion, who is fought at the end of the Elite Four. As the player must use the same Pokémon that it used against the Elite Four, Lance is extremely difficult to defeat with Rental Pokémon, but not impossible (due to the element of chance). Once Lance is defeated, the player can battle any gym leaders in the Kanto region at any time.

==In the anime==
[[File:Lance LoT.png|left|240px|thumb|Lance in the anime]]
[[Image:Lance Disguised TR.jpg|right|240px|thumb|Lance disguised as a Team Rocket member]]
Lance is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] famous in the [[Pokémon League]]. He is a member of an organization called the [[Pokémon G-Men]].

Lance's first appeared in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] started up an evil scheme at the [[Lake of Rage]], Lance showed up to investigate. He met {{Ash}}, [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] there, saving the children from some formidable [[Rocket Grunts]]. Ash wanted to help Lance in his mission, but Lance said it was too dangerous.

Team Rocket was trying to investigate the properties of a {{shiny2|Red}} {{p|Gyarados}} so that they could learn how to force Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Lance was able to destroy Team Rocket's machine and blow up their laboratory. Ash was able to calm the [[Red Gyarados]] at first, but it continued to go berserk. Finally, Lance caught it to keep it from destroying [[Mahogany Town]].

Lance later appeared again in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', where he helped stop the rampage of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Lance Special.png|300px|right|thumb|Lance on his {{p|Aerodactyl}}]]
Lance is primarily a villain in [[Pokémon Special]]. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people who he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon.

Apparently also from [[Viridian City]], Lance was blessed with the powers of the [[Viridian Forest]] as {{Special|Yellow}} was. He has the power to telepathically communicate with Pokémon, as well as heal their wounds.

Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).

Lance tried to summon {{p|Lugia}} on [[Cerise Island]] to help accomplish his goals, but Yellow's Pokémon were able to drive Lugia away. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. He gave {{Special|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a Tyranitar. Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Mask of Ice]].

==Trivia==
* Every Pokémon Lance battles with, save in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, knows {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
* Lance has battles with two illegal Pokémon: the Aerodactyl that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and the Dragonite that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in Red and Blue. Furthermore, all his Dragonite from [[Generation II]], as well as in the first battle in [[Generation IV]], are underleveled.
* It is interesting to note that as of {{game|Yellow}} Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}} shows artwork of him with purple hair. This is probably due to the fact that the board game was made before Yellow was released and his sprite in Red and Blue is grayish-blue in color.
* Though his type theme is Dragon Pokémon, in Generation II, only three of his Pokémon are actually of the Dragon type; all of them Dragonite. Interestingly, all six of his Pokémon have {{t|Flying}} as their secondary type.
* Lance, [[Bruno]], and [[Koga]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations.
* In the rematch battles in HeartGold/SoulSilver, Lance uses every {{type2|Dragon}} Pseudo-legendary.

==Hi==
I noticed you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot recently. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a {{bp|Userspace policy}} that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Instead of making multiple edits, why not use the Preview button (Alt + Shift + P) located right next to the edit button to look at your page and see how it is coming? That way, your page can look great while staying within the required amount of edits. Instead of editing the userspace, as a wiki, we encourage users to edit the mainspace. So, if you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit the userspace more. Thanks! --[[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 01:04, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Hmmmm in the last line "Help out" maybe i should just leave my userpage alone and edit pokemon location or trainer pokemon.... [[User:DialgaPrimeX|DialgaPrimeX]] 01:15, 15 September 2009 (UTC)DialgaPrimeX
:You're welcome to edit the userspace once in a while, just maybe no more than three times a day. (we're also more forgiving the more you help out) [[:Category:Stubs|These]] articles could all use some help if you're stuck on where to get started. :) [[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 01:59, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Special===
In {{PSV|8}}, a conman uses a swarm of Wooper as a part of his game stall.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Wooper (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Out of all the Pokéfloats, Wooper spends the most time on-screen. It first appears when play is on {{p|Slowpoke}}'s tail and it then floats past {{p|Sudowoodo}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, and {{p|Seel}} before finally floating away from play. While its head is small, players can also stand on the gills.

==Trivia==
*Although Wooper has no arms, it can still learn {{m|Ice Punch}}.
*The {{wp|blue}} [[Pokémon Mini]] was modeled after Wooper.
*Wooper is one of the first Pokémon to have its gender difference revealed in [[Generation IV]], along with {{p|Scizor}}.
*Wooper is one of the Pokémon in the anime that does not have a dubbed voice, as Wooper's name is similar to its Japanese name. In other language dubs, Wooper does receive a dubbed voice.
===Origin===
Wooper seems to be based on a larval {{wp|axolotl}}, which have flat tails and feathery, external gills.
====Name origin====
Wooper's English name appears to be based directly on its Japanese name, ''Upah''/"Wooper". ''Upa'' is drived from "Wooper Looper", a marketing term created in Japan that started a pet salamander raising fad in Japan. Wooper Loopers (or "Upa") are the Japanese term for the larval stages of the {{wp|axolotl}}, a species of {{wp|salamander}}.

==In other languages==

'''Onix''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イワーク''' ''Iwark'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Steelix}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Metal Coat}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Onix basically resembles a giant chain of gray boulders. The Pokémon has a magnet in its brain that serves as an internal compass. Onix's body becomes more rounded and smoother as it grows with age. A fully grown Onix measures at an enormous 28 feet 10 inches, or 8.8 metres.

====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
It tunnels under the ground at over fifty miles per hour. Its {{a|Rock Head|hard head}} and {{a|Sturdy|sturdy body}} are the only thing that protects Onix from the tremors it causes. If Onix takes a hard enough blow and it's body falls apart, it can regrow the rest in a matter of a few weeks. It shares this trait with Arbok.

===Behavior===
They are very hot headed Pokémon and will constantly attack humans and Pokémon when various objects are caught in its cragged body in the wild, but under the care of trainers they will show signs of distress instead of attacking others.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|thumb|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Cave Pokémon|Cave Pokémon]]]]
Onix can be found in mountains and caves, though they prefer underground tunnels with little light. It can also be found scragged mountains and abandoned mines.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:EP005_013.jpg|right|thumb|220px|{{TP|Brock|Onix}} in the anime]]
{{TP|Brock|Onix}} first appeared in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' under the ownership of [[Brock]]. He used it in his journeys in Kanto and Johto before giving it to his little brother, [[Forrest]], in ''[[H001|A Family That Battles Together, Stays Together]]''. At some time before ''[[AG177|Grating Spaces]]'', it evolved into a {{p|Steelix}}.

{{Ash}} and co. encountered a {{pkmn2|giant}} {{TP|Bruno|Onix}} in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected]]''. It was on a rampage until [[Bruno]] managed to get a {{p|Sandslash}} from under the Rock Snake Pokémon's "skin." Bruno captured the Onix afterward.

''[[EP087|The Crystal Onix]]'' featured a [[Crystal Onix]]. Ash and co. helped a glass sculptor named [[Mateo]] search for it because Mateo believed it would help inspire him to be better at his craft.

In ''[[EP111|Hello Pummelo]]'', [[Drake (Orange League)|Drake]] of the Orange Crew owns an Onix and he used it to fight [[Ash's Squirtle]] in the second round in the Orange League Champion match. During the battle with Squirtle, Drake's Onix dug underground and emerged to use {{m|Bind}} on Squirtle, but Squirtle used {{m|Withdraw}} followed by a {{m|Hydro Pump}}, soaking Drake's Onix into submission. After drenching Drake's Onix, Squirtle defeated the Onix with a {{m|Skull Bash}}.

[[Janina]], [[Jasmine]]'s apprentice, has an Onix in the episode ''[[EP208|Fight for the Light]]''. Her Onix was heavily coated in wax for protection against {{t|Water}} attacks.

A "King Onix" was featured in ''[[AG137|Hooked on Onix]]''. [[Team Rocket]] tricked King Onix into thinking Ash and co. were going to destroy his kingdom. When Ash managed to convince King Onix that he and his friends weren't bad by defeating it in a battle, Team Rocket tried to steal the royal Rock Snake Pokémon, but their plan was foiled, as usual.

[[Roark]]'s Onix was first seen in ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come]]'' where it was used against [[Paul]]'s {{TP|Paul|Elekid}} and {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}. In ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow]]'', it defeated [[Ash's Pikachu]] but Pikachu managed to defeat it in a rematch in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched]]''.

A rampaging Onix appeared in ''[[DP046|A Maze-ing Race!]]''.

Brock used an Onix in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]'' as part of the Pokémon Triathlon.

An Onix appeared in ''[[DP110|Steeling Peace of Mind!]]'', and again in [[DP134]].

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Sinnoh}}
{{Animedexbody|DP015|Onix|Dawn's Pokédex|Onix, the {{t|Rock}} Snake Pokémon. It {{m|Dig|tunnels through the ground}} which shakes when it raises its {{m|Screech|thunderous roar}}. It can move the ground at fifty miles per hour.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Diamond & Pearl''|Sinnoh}}

==In the manga==
[[Brock]] has an Onix in [[Pokémon Zensho]], the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]], and [[Pocket Monsters (manga)|Pocket Monsters]].

===In the Pokémon Special manga===
Onix debuts in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'' of the Red, Green & Blue chapter as [[Brock]]'s main Pokémon, however a picture of it is showed on a leaflet in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]''. Onix later continues to make appearances with Brock in various volumes onwards.

[[Bruno]] owns an Onix, on which he battles [[Bill]], [[Lt. Surge]] and {{Special|Red}} on [[Cerise Island]]. The Onix later manages to carry Bruno and [[Koga]] off the collapsing island. Another [[Wild Pokémon|wild]] Onix was also seen on Cerise Island.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Onix (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
Onix is obtainable in a Poké Ball. Once thrown, it flies up into the sky and uses {{m|Rock Throw}} on the player's opponents. This will hit everyone on the field except Kirby if he uses his down special move.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Onix is the second Poké Float to appear. It provides a horizontally flat area all the time it is on-screen, though it becomes diagonal as it leaves the screen.

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], Onix was the longest Pokémon, but in [[Generation II]], it was dropped to second place by its evolution {{p|Steelix}}. When {{p|Wailord}} was introduced in [[Generation III]], it became the third longest.
* Onix is the largest Pokémon that evolves once.
* Onix and {{p|Swablu}} are the only dual-typed Pokémon that have their primary type change during evolution.
* By being under the ownership of [[Bruno]] in [[Generation II]], Onix is one of the few unevolved Pokémon that can evolve in the same generation as that of the [[Elite Four]] member to whom it belongs, the others being {{p|Dragonair}}, {{p|Shelgon}}, {{p|Haunter}} and {{p|Sealeo}}. However, it's the only one where the Elite Four member doesn't own its evolved form.
* Onix, along with its {{p|Steelix|evolved form}}, are the only non-{{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon to learn {{m|DragonBreath}} by leveling up.
* Of all the Pokémon that can [[Evolution|evolve]], Onix has the highest base Defense.
* Onix is the largest Pokémon that can legally hatch from an egg.

===Origin===
Onix is most likely based on a snake.
====Name origin====
Onix's name is a corruption of ''{{wp|onyx}}'', a mineral. Its Japanese name may be a combination of 岩 ''iwa'', rock, and スネ−ク ''snake''.

It has been suggested that Onix is based on a {{wp|European dragon|wyrm}}, a type of dragon that has been presented as limbless and burrowing.
However, Onix was unable to learn DragonBreath until [[Generation III]].

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Onix
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Onix
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 롱스톤 ''Rongseuton''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 大岩蛇 ''Da Yén Sé'' - "Big rock snake".

'''Lance''' (Japanese: '''ワタル''' ''Wataru'') is a {{pkmn|master}} {{type2|Dragon}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a member of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation I]] and the League [[Champion]] in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]].

==In the games==
In [[Generation I]] and the [[Generation III]] remakes, Lance is the fourth and final member of the [[Elite Four]]. He must be defeated before facing [[Blue (game)|Blue]], the [[League Champion]]. By the [[Generation II]] games, he has proceeded to become League Champion.

He raises {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon, which are both hard to catch and raise, but he prefers the superiority of Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be virtually indestructible.

Known as a cool and heroic Trainer, Lance has a large fan-following. Lance also seems to have a liking for capes, as he is often seen buying identical capes at the [[Celadon Department Store]].

Lance's grandfather was the elder of a famous clan of Dragon masters. [[Clair]] is his cousin, and his hometown is [[Blackthorn City]].

Lance appeared at [[Mahogany Town]] to help the player fight Team Rocket in [[Johto]]. Lance rewards the player with the {{m|Whirlpool}} HM for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans.

===Pokémon===
This listing is for Lance's Pokémon in the video games in which he has appeared.

===={{g|Stadium 2}}====

In Pokémon Stadium 2, Lance is the champion, who is fought at the end of the Elite Four. As the player must use the same Pokémon that it used against the Elite Four, Lance is extremely difficult to defeat with Rental Pokémon, but not impossible (due to the element of chance). Once Lance is defeated, the player can battle any gym leaders in the Kanto region at any time.

==In the anime==
[[File:Lance LoT.png|left|240px|thumb|Lance in the anime]]
[[Image:Lance Disguised TR.jpg|right|240px|thumb|Lance disguised as a Team Rocket member]]
Lance is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] famous in the [[Pokémon League]]. He is a member of an organization called the [[Pokémon G-Men]].

Lance's first appeared in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] started up an evil scheme at the [[Lake of Rage]], Lance showed up to investigate. He met {{Ash}}, [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] there, saving the children from some formidable [[Rocket Grunts]]. Ash wanted to help Lance in his mission, but Lance said it was too dangerous.

Team Rocket was trying to investigate the properties of a {{shiny2|Red}} {{p|Gyarados}} so that they could learn how to force Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Lance was able to destroy Team Rocket's machine and blow up their laboratory. Ash was able to calm the [[Red Gyarados]] at first, but it continued to go berserk. Finally, Lance caught it to keep it from destroying [[Mahogany Town]].

Lance later appeared again in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', where he helped stop the rampage of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

[[Image:Lance Special.png|300px|right|thumb|Lance on his {{p|Aerodactyl}}]]
Lance is primarily a villain in [[Pokémon Special]]. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people who he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon.

Apparently also from [[Viridian City]], Lance was blessed with the powers of the [[Viridian Forest]] as {{Special|Yellow}} was. He has the power to telepathically communicate with Pokémon, as well as heal their wounds.

Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).

Lance tried to summon {{p|Lugia}} on [[Cerise Island]] to help accomplish his goals, but Yellow's Pokémon were able to drive Lugia away. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. He gave {{Special|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a Tyranitar. Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Mask of Ice]].

==Trivia==
* Every Pokémon Lance battles with, save in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, knows {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
* Lance has battles with two illegal Pokémon: the Aerodactyl that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and the Dragonite that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in Red and Blue. Furthermore, all his Dragonite from [[Generation II]] are underleveled.
* It is interesting to note that as of {{game|Yellow}} Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}} shows artwork of him with purple hair. This is probably due to the fact that the board game was made before Yellow was released and his sprite in Red and Blue is grayish-blue in color.
* Though his type theme is Dragon Pokémon, in Generation II, only three of his Pokémon are actually of the Dragon type; all of them Dragonite. Interestingly, all six of his Pokémon have {{t|Flying}} as their secondary type.
* Lance, [[Bruno]], and [[Koga]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations.
* When you fight Lance during the rematch in HeartGold/SoulSilver, he has possession of all three of the Dragon Pseudo Legendaries.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Karen.PNG|right|frame|Karen]]
Karen, along with [[Will]], {{Special|Blue}}, {{Special|Silver}}, [[Chermaine]], and [[Keane]], is one of the children kidnapped by the [[Mask of Ice]] and raised to be his servants. Karen was one of the leaders of the new [[Team Rocket]] formed in Johto.

After the Mask of Ice was defeated, Karen formed an alliance with [[Bruno]], Will, and [[Koga]]; the four of them all ex-members of various criminal organizations.

==Trivia==
*Due to the palette used in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, it was debated for a long time whether Karen's hair was officially silver or blonde. Much like the official artwork and {{g|Stadium 2}} artwork of her, however, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}'s sprites depict her with silver hair.
*In Generation II, her hair is depicted as being shoulder length. In Generation IV, it is depicted reaching up to her hips.

'''Bruno''' (Japanese: '''シバ''' ''Shiba'') is a {{pkmn|master}} {{type2|Fighting}} {{pkmn|Trainer}} and member of the [[Elite Four]] of [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

==In the games==
Bruno is a member of the [[Elite Four]]. He raises Fighting-type Pokémon, living with them and training with them. He joined the Elite Four out of a desire to challenge the best Trainers.

Bruno regularly visits the [[Sevii Islands]]. He and his Pokémon use the spa on [[Knot Island]], and he visits [[Boon Island]] to buy [[Ragecandybar]]s.

[[Brawly]] is a former training partner of Bruno's.

In Pokémon {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold and SoulSilver]], Bruno continues to be a member of the Elite Four, though moving up in rank one level.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Bruno.png|left|thumb|Bruno in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Bruno appeared in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected!]]''. His English voice actress is [[Maddie Blaustein]] and his Japanese voice actor is ''[[Toshiyuki Morikawa]]''.

While {{Ash}} was preparing for the [[Pokémon League]] in Kanto, he found out that Bruno was training in the mountains near [[Pallet Town]]. [[Brock]] was enthusiastic about meeting Bruno, so they took [[Misty]] and headed towards the mountains. In the local mountains, it was known that {{p|Onix}} grew much larger than usual.

After Bruno saved them from one of the giant Onix, Ash and Brock begged for Bruno to take them on as students. Bruno agreed, as long as Ash and Brock would do anything he said. Bruno had them chop wood, carry water, and carve chopsticks - amongst other chores. Misty began to suspect that Bruno was a phony.

Brock decided to prove how amazing Bruno was by surprising him with a sneak attack. He assumed that Bruno's reflexes would be so amazing, he'd stop Brock with ease. Brock nearly ended up knocking Bruno unconscious. Bruno admitted that he didn't know any secret techniques on how to train Pokémon and just wanted to have someone to do chores for him.

Later, the kids were again chased by a giant Onix. Bruno calmed the giant Pokémon, and it decided to join Bruno's team. Bruno then said that the only true secret behind Pokémon training is that Trainers and their Pokémon should care for each other.

Bruno has amazing physical power and agility in the anime, and appears capable of using them with almost superhuman expertise.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Bruno Special.png|right|thumb|Bruno]]
In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga, Bruno was primarily a villain. He challenged {{Special|Red}} to a Pokémon battle in a remote area. He then offered a position on the Elite Four to Red, but Red refused so [[Lorelei]] froze him.

Later, the Elite Four tried to wipe out most of humanity from [[Cerise Island]]. [[Bill]], [[Lt. Surge]], and Red teamed up to defeat Bruno.

It was later revealed that Bruno was an unwilling member. [[Agatha]] used the mind controlling abilities of her {{t|Ghost}}-type Pokémon to force Bruno to join.

Without any place to go, Bruno formed a new version of the Elite Four in Johto, with three other ex-members of criminal organizations: [[Will]], [[Karen]], and [[Koga]].

Bruno attaches his [[Poké Ball]]s to the ends of a set of nunchuck. The force of him using the weapon causes his Pokémon to be released at high speeds, giving him the advantage in battles.

''"I am <sc>Bruno</sc> of the <sc>Elite Four</sc>! Through rigorous training, people and Pokémon can become stronger without limit. I've lived and trained with my Fighting Pokémon! And that will never change! <name>! We will grind you down with our superior power! Hoo hah!"''

''"Why? How could I lose?"''

''"My job is done. Go face your next challenge."''

''"I am <sc>Bruno</sc> of the <sc>Elite Four</sc>. I always train to the extreme because I believe in our potential. That is how we became strong. Can you withstand our power? Hm?

''"Why? How could we lose?"''

''"Having lost, I have no right to say anything...Go face your next challenge!"''

==Trivia==
*Bruno's hair has changed from [[Generation II]] to [[Generation III]] to a longer, darker style and his skin tone got lighter as well.
*Bruno was the first member of the [[Elite Four]] who was met in the anime, not counting [[Koga]], who was not a member when he was seen.
*Bruno is the only character to be a member of two different incarnations of the [[Elite Four]]; since [[Lance]] became the [[Champion]], he technically wasn't a member of the Generation II Kanto Elite Four.
*Bruno and [[Lance]] are the only members of the Elite Four that are still members in [[Generation II]]. However, Lance has taken the title of Champion.
*After defeating Bruno in the [[Generation III]] games, he will turn to his left; he is the only character in the [[Elite Four]] that does this.
* Bruno, [[Lance]], and [[Koga]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations.

'''Koga''' (Japanese: '''キョウ''' ''Kyō'') was the [[Gym Leader|Leader]] of [[Fuchsia City]]'s {{pkmn|Gym}}. He is a student of ninjutsu who specializes in {{type2|Poison}} [[Pokémon]]. He handed out the {{Badge|Soul}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeated him.

He was promoted to the [[Elite Four]], at some time after the events of [[Generation I]], and its remakes, but before the events of [[Generation II]], and it's remakes. Thus, leaving his daughter, [[Janine]], in charge of the [[Fuchsia Gym]].

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimorikogaoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Koga from ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue''.]]
Koga is called the Poisonous Ninja Master. He likes the despair and horror that Poison-type Pokémon can inflict on others. He has many students that he trains in both {{wp|Ninjutsu}} and Pokémon. One of his students is his own daughter. He has built invisible walls in the Fuchsia City gym, constructing a confusing maze out of them. Koga awaits challengers in the center of the maze, clearly visible.

Koga has seriously studied medicine and antidotes, and makes his own potions to heal his Pokémon. Koga patrols the grounds of the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] regularly.

In addition to the Soul Badge, Koga gives out {{TM|06|Toxic}}, in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, {{game|Red and Green|s}}, {{game|Yellow}}, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.

In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, and {{game|Crystal}}, Koga has become much more powerful. He has left the Fuchsia City Gym in the hands of his daughter, [[Janine]], and joined the [[Elite Four]]. In this position, he battles with an intricate style, designed to confound and destroy his opponent in battle. His sinister technique is [[status ailment|confusion, sleep, and poison]], rather than brute force.

''"Fwahahahaha! I am Koga of the Elite Four. I live in shadows, a ninja! My intricate style will confound and destroy you! Confusion, sleep, poison... Prepare to be the victim of my sinister technique! Fwahahahaha! Pokémon is not merely about brute force--you shall see soon enough!"''

''"Ah! You've proven your worth!"''

''"I subjected you to everything I could muster. But my efforts failed. I must hone my skills. Go on to the next room, and put your abilities to test!"''

==In the anime==
[[Image:KogaAnime.jpg|thumb|left|220px|Koga in the anime.]]
Koga's only anime appearance was in the episode ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké Showdown]]''.

Koga is a ninja who trains in an old mansion, the Fuchsia City Gym, in the woods outside Fuchsia City. The Gym is filled with traps such as fake mirrors, invisible walls, pits, and many {{p|Voltorb}}. [[Aya]], Koga's younger sister, is one of his students.

{{Ash}}, [[Misty]], and [[Brock]] managed to overcome the traps in the Gym and Ash was finally able to challenge Koga. Although [[Ash's Pidgeotto]] initially lost to Koga's newly-evolved {{p|Venomoth}}, prompting Ash to call out {{AP|Charmander}}, their match was interrupted when [[Team Rocket]] tried to steal Koga's large supply of Voltorb, although they had raided the Gym with the intent of getting {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon. Team Rocket was stopped by {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, allowing Ash and Koga to have a rematch. Pitting Charmander against Koga's {{p|Golbat}}, Ash triumphed and won the Soul Badge.

===Pokémon===
This listing is of Koga's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:
{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|Koga|Venomoth|{{poison color}}|Venomoth_anime.PNG|When {{Ash}} challenged Koga, Koga sent out his {{p|Venonat}}, which then instantly evolved into a {{p|Venomoth}}, and proceeded to get the upper hand in its gym battle with {{AP|Pidgeotto}}. The battle was interrupted by [[Team Rocket]], and afterward, Koga offered to trade Venomoth to [[Misty]] for her {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, but she declined.

Venomoth can use {{m||Stun Spore}} and {{m|Sleep Powder}}.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|Koga|Golbat|{{poison color}}|Golbat Screech.PNG|During Koga and Ash's rematch, Koga used {{p|Golbat}} against [[Ash's Charmander]]. Golbat eventually lost to Charmander's strong {{type2|Fire}} moves.

Golbat can use {{m|Wing Attack}} and {{m|Screech}}.}}

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Koga.PNG|right|frame|Koga in the Pokémon Special manga.]]
Koga is one of the three villainous heads of Team Rocket, and serves under [[Giovanni]].

He debuts in the [[Red, Green & Blue chapter (Special)|Red, Green & Blue]] chapter in ''[[PS007|Raging Rhydon]]'' searching the {{evostone|Moon Stone}} in [[Mt. Moon]], here Koga fights with {{Special|Red}} and [[Misty]] and forces his Rhyhorn to evolve with a mysterious injection, revealing what happened to Misty's Gyarados when it was kidnapped, however the mission fails. Koga later tries to bump off Red in [[Lavender Town]]'s [[Pokémon Tower]], where he uses a Gastly to reanimate the corpses of dead Pokémon buried there. He also attacks Red with his Arbok. However, {{Special|Green}} has his {{p|Charmeleon}} slice Arbok in half. Under his boss's orders, he captures {{p|Articuno}} and brings it to [[Saffron City]]. He is once again defeated by Green at [[Silph Co.]].

Later, Koga helps the [[Pallet Town]] Trainers in the fight against the [[Elite Four]] during the [[Cerise Island]] battle. Koga is paired with Green. He then disappears for a time, leaving Janine in charge of the Gym. Janine is worried for her father, but opposes his criminal ties. At the end of the [[Johto]] adventures, Koga decides to ally himself with three other Trainers who had been abandoned by evil organizations: [[Bruno]], [[Will]], and [[Karen]].

Two of Koga's Pokémon have unusual powers: his Arbok can regenerate itself as long as its head remains intact (see above); and his unusually small Golbat's mouth can be used almost like a magic mirror for {{wp|scry}}ing to see things from a distance, even if walls or land are in the way. Green takes this Golbat and keeps it for quite some time before returning it to Koga at Cerise Island.

Koga also uses custom-made [[Poké Ball]]s which can be thrown as {{wp|shuriken}} - perhaps an inspiration for [[Falkner]]’s later boomerang Poké Balls.

==Trivia==
*In the manga [[Pokémon PiPiPi Adventure]], the ninja-in-training [[Wal]] is an admirer of Koga.
*Koga makes a short cameo appearance in a chapter of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga.
*Out of the original Generation I Gym Leaders, Koga has the fewest Trainer cards in the Gym Leader sets of the TCG. Incidentally, his [[Koga's Ninja Trick (Gym Challenge 115)|only Trainer card]] besides the basic Koga card had to be edited because it featured a {{wp|manji}}, which could have caused controversy between cultures; the infamous Nazi {{wp|swastika}} is a reversed manji.
*Because he became a member of the [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation II]], he is technically the first member of the Elite Four seen in the anime, though he was not a member at the time he was shown. He is also the only one Ash defeated in battle (again, however, it was as a Gym Leader).
*In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the [[Ninja Boy]] on Route 217 mentions different kinds of ninja in the world. He says, "There are several kinds of ninjas. Are you an Iga or a Kouga ninja?" This is a reference to the two main schools of ninjutsu, Iga-ryu and Kōga-ryu, the latter of which Koga himself is named after.
* Koga's highest [[level]] [[party|team]] is in {{game|Yellow}}; this team is of a higher level than his [[Elite Four]] team in Gold, Silver, and Crystal.
* Koga, [[Bruno]], and [[Lance]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations.

''"Welcome to Pokémon League, [[Player character|<name>]]. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Will. I have trained all around the world, making my psychic Pokémon powerful. And, at last, I've been accepted into the Elite Four. I can only keep getting better! Losing is not an option!"''

''"I... I can't... believe it..."''

''"Even though I was defeated, I won't change my course. I will continue battling until I stand above all Trainers! Now, [[Player character|<name>]], move on and experience the true ferocity of the Elite Four."''

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Will.PNG|frame|Will]]
Will, along with [[Karen]], {{Special|Blue}}, {{Special|Silver}}, [[Chermaine]], and [[Keane]], is one of the children kidnapped by the [[Mask of Ice]] and raised to be his servants. Will was one of the leaders of the new [[Team Rocket]] formed in Johto. After the defeat of the Mask of Ice, he and Karen met [[Koga]] and [[Bruno]]. Together, the four formed a new Elite Four and have not been heard from since.

==Trivia==
*Will's hair falls over the left side of his face, leading to his left eye being whited out in some depictions. This has spurred debate as to whether he has one functioning eye or two. This is rectified in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, where his sprite clearly shows two eyes, both obscured by white. His mask thus acts like those of {{wp|Batman}} and {{wp|Robin (comics)|Robin}}.
*Interestingly, his Japanese name Itsuki is shared with a character from {{wp|The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya}}, {{wp|Itsuki Koizumi}}, who is an {{wp|esper}}. The {{type2|Psychic}}, Will's preference, is known as the Esper type in Japan.

'''Bruno''' (Japanese: '''シバ''' ''Shiba'') is a {{pkmn|master}} {{type2|Fighting}} {{pkmn|Trainer}} and member of the [[Elite Four]] of [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

==In the games==
Bruno is a member of the [[Elite Four]]. He raises Fighting-type Pokémon, living with them and training with them. He joined the Elite Four out of a desire to challenge the best Trainers.

Bruno regularly visits the [[Sevii Islands]]. He and his Pokémon use the spa on [[Knot Island]], and he visits [[Boon Island]] to buy [[Ragecandybar]]s.

[[Brawly]] is a former training partner of Bruno's.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Bruno.png|left|thumb|Bruno in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Bruno appeared in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected!]]''. His English voice actress is [[Maddie Blaustein]] and his Japanese voice actor is ''[[Toshiyuki Morikawa]]''.

While {{Ash}} was preparing for the [[Pokémon League]] in Kanto, he found out that Bruno was training in the mountains near [[Pallet Town]]. [[Brock]] was enthusiastic about meeting Bruno, so they took [[Misty]] and headed towards the mountains. In the local mountains, it was known that {{p|Onix}} grew much larger than usual.

After Bruno saved them from one of the giant Onix, Ash and Brock begged for Bruno to take them on as students. Bruno agreed, as long as Ash and Brock would do anything he said. Bruno had them chop wood, carry water, and carve chopsticks - amongst other chores. Misty began to suspect that Bruno was a phony.

Brock decided to prove how amazing Bruno was by surprising him with a sneak attack. He assumed that Bruno's reflexes would be so amazing, he'd stop Brock with ease. Brock nearly ended up knocking Bruno unconscious. Bruno admitted that he didn't know any secret techniques on how to train Pokémon and just wanted to have someone to do chores for him.

Later, the kids were again chased by a giant Onix. Bruno calmed the giant Pokémon, and it decided to join Bruno's team. Bruno then said that the only true secret behind Pokémon training is that Trainers and their Pokémon should care for each other.

Bruno has amazing physical power and agility in the anime, and appears capable of using them with almost superhuman expertise.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Bruno Special.png|right|thumb|Bruno]]
In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga, Bruno was primarily a villain. He challenged {{Special|Red}} to a Pokémon battle in a remote area. He then offered a position on the Elite Four to Red, but Red refused so [[Lorelei]] froze him.

Later, the Elite Four tried to wipe out most of humanity from [[Cerise Island]]. [[Bill]], [[Lt. Surge]], and Red teamed up to defeat Bruno.

It was later revealed that Bruno was an unwilling member. [[Agatha]] used the mind controlling abilities of her {{t|Ghost}}-type Pokémon to force Bruno to join.

Without any place to go, Bruno formed a new version of the Elite Four in Johto, with three other ex-members of criminal organizations: [[Will]], [[Karen]], and [[Koga]].

Bruno attaches his [[Poké Ball]]s to the ends of a set of nunchuck. The force of him using the weapon causes his Pokémon to be released at high speeds, giving him the advantage in battles.

===[[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red, Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]]===

''"I am <sc>Bruno</sc> of the <sc>Elite Four</sc>! Through rigorous training, people and Pokémon can become stronger without limit. I've lived and trained with my Fighting Pokémon! And that will never change! <name>! We will grind you down with our superior power! Hoo hah!"''

''"Why? How could I lose?"''

''"My job is done. Go face your next challenge."''

===Pokémon {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}===

''"I am <sc>Bruno</sc> of the <sc>Elite Four</sc>. I always train to the extreme because I believe in our potential. That is how we became strong. Can you withstand our power? Hm? I see no fear in you. You look determined. Perfect for battle! Ready, <name>? You will bow down to our overwhelming power! Hoo hah!"''

''"Why? How could we lose?"''

''"Having lost, I have no right to say anything...Go face your next challenge!"''

==Trivia==
*Bruno's hair has changed from [[Generation II]] to [[Generation III]] to a longer, darker style and his skin tone got lighter as well.
*Bruno was the first member of the [[Elite Four]] who was met in the anime, not counting [[Koga]], who was not a member when he was seen.
*Bruno is the only character to be a member of two different incarnations of the [[Elite Four]]; since [[Lance]] became the [[Champion]], he technically wasn't a member of the Generation II Kanto Elite Four.
*Bruno and [[Lance]] are the only members of the Elite Four that are still members in [[Generation II]]. However, Lance has taken the title of Champion.
*After defeating Bruno in the [[Generation III]] games, he will turn to his left; he is the only character in the [[Elite Four]] that does this.
* Bruno, [[Lance]], and [[Koga]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations.

''"I am Karen of the Elite Four. Are you [[Player character|<name>]]? How amusing. I love Dark-type Pokémon. I find their wild, tough image to be so appealing. And they're so strong. Think you can take them? Just try to entertain me. Let's go."''

''"Well, aren't you good. I like that in a trainer."''

''"Strong Pokémon. Weak Pokémon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with their favorites. I like your style. You understand what's important. Go on--the Champion is waiting."''

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Karen.PNG|right|frame|Karen]]
Karen, along with [[Will]], {{Special|Blue}}, {{Special|Silver}}, [[Chermaine]], and [[Keane]], is one of the children kidnapped by the [[Mask of Ice]] and raised to be his servants. Karen was one of the leaders of the new [[Team Rocket]] formed in Johto.

After the Mask of Ice was defeated, Karen formed an alliance with [[Bruno]], Will, and [[Koga]]; the four of them all ex-members of various criminal organizations.

==Trivia==
*Due to the palette used in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, it was debated for a long time whether Karen's hair was officially silver or blonde. Much like the official artwork and {{g|Stadium 2}} artwork of her, however, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}'s sprites depict her with silver hair.
*In Generation II, her hair is depicted as being shoulder length. In Generation IV, it is depicted reaching up to her hips.

'''Lance''' (Japanese: '''ワタル''' ''Wataru'') is a {{pkmn|master}} {{type2|Dragon}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a member of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation I]] and the League [[Champion]] in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]].

==In the games==
In [[Generation I]] and the [[Generation III]] remakes, Lance is the fourth and final member of the [[Elite Four]]. He must be defeated before facing [[Blue (game)|Blue]], the [[League Champion]]. By the [[Generation II]] games, he has proceeded to become League Champion.

He raises {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon, which are both hard to catch and raise, but he prefers the superiority of Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be virtually indestructible.

Known as a cool and heroic Trainer, Lance has a large fan-following. Lance also seems to have a liking for capes, as he is often seen buying identical capes at the [[Celadon Department Store]].

Lance's grandfather was the elder of a famous clan of Dragon masters. [[Clair]] is his cousin, and his hometown is [[Blackthorn City]].

Lance appeared at [[Mahogany Town]] to help the player fight Team Rocket in [[Johto]]. Lance rewards the player with the {{m|Whirlpool}} HM for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans.

===={{g|Stadium 2}}====

In Pokémon Stadium 2, Lance is the champion, who is fought at the end of the Elite Four. As the player must use the same Pokémon that it used against the Elite Four, Lance is extremely difficult to defeat with Rental Pokémon, but not impossible (due to the element of chance). Once Lance is defeated, the player can battle any gym leaders in the Kanto region at any time.

Lance's first appeared in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] started up an evil scheme at the [[Lake of Rage]], Lance showed up to investigate. He met {{Ash}}, [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] there, saving the children from some formidable [[Rocket Grunts]]. Ash wanted to help Lance in his mission, but Lance said it was too dangerous.

Team Rocket was trying to investigate the properties of a {{shiny2|Red}} {{p|Gyarados}} so that they could learn how to force Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Lance was able to destroy Team Rocket's machine and blow up their laboratory. Ash was able to calm the [[Red Gyarados]] at first, but it continued to go berserk. Finally, Lance caught it to keep it from destroying [[Mahogany Town]].

Lance later appeared again in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', where he helped stop the rampage of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Lance Special.png|300px|right|thumb|Lance on his {{p|Aerodactyl}}]]
Lance is primarily a villain in [[Pokémon Special]]. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people who he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon.

Apparently also from [[Viridian City]], Lance was blessed with the powers of the [[Viridian Forest]] as {{Special|Yellow}} was. He has the power to telepathically communicate with Pokémon, as well as heal their wounds.

Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).

Lance tried to summon {{p|Lugia}} on [[Cerise Island]] to help accomplish his goals, but Yellow's Pokémon were able to drive Lugia away. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. He gave {{Special|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a Tyranitar. Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Mask of Ice]].

==Trivia==
* Every Pokémon Lance battles with, save in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, knows {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
* Lance has battles with two illegal Pokémon: the Aerodactyl that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and the Dragonite that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in Red and Blue. Furthermore, all his Dragonite from [[Generation II]] are underleveled.
* It is interesting to note that as of {{game|Yellow}} Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}} shows artwork of him with purple hair. This is probably due to the fact that the board game was made before Yellow was released and his sprite in Red and Blue is grayish-blue in color.
* Though his type theme is Dragon Pokémon, in Generation II, only three of his Pokémon are actually of the Dragon type; all of them Dragonite. Interestingly, all six of his Pokémon have {{t|Flying}} as their secondary type.
* Lance, [[Bruno]], and [[Koga]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations.
* When you fight Lance during the rematch in HeartGold/SoulSilver, he has possession of all three of the Dragon Pseudo Legendaries.

'''Lance''' (Japanese: '''ワタル''' ''Wataru'') is a {{pkmn|master}} {{type2|Dragon}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a member of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation I]] and the League [[Champion]] in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]].

==In the games==
In [[Generation I]] and the [[Generation III]] remakes, Lance is the fourth and final member of the [[Elite Four]]. He must be defeated before facing [[Blue (game)|Blue]], the [[League Champion]]. By the [[Generation II]] games, he has proceeded to become League Champion.

He raises {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon, which are both hard to catch and raise, but he prefers the superiority of Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be virtually indestructible.

Known as a cool and heroic Trainer, Lance has a large fan-following. Lance also seems to have a liking for capes, as he is often seen buying identical capes at the [[Celadon Department Store]].

Lance's grandfather was the elder of a famous clan of Dragon masters. [[Clair]] is his cousin, and his hometown is [[Blackthorn City]].

Lance appeared at [[Mahogany Town]] to help the player fight Team Rocket in [[Johto]]. Lance rewards the player with the {{m|Whirlpool}} HM for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans.

===={{g|Stadium 2}}====

In Pokémon Stadium 2, Lance is the champion, who is fought at the end of the Elite Four. As the player must use the same Pokémon that it used against the Elite Four, Lance is extremely difficult to defeat with Rental Pokémon, but not impossible (due to the element of chance). Once Lance is defeated, the player can battle any gym leaders in the Kanto region at any time.

==In the anime==
[[File:Lance LoT.png|left|240px|thumb|Lance in the anime]]
[[Image:Lance Disguised TR.jpg|right|240px|thumb|Lance disguised as a Team Rocket member]]
Lance is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] famous in the [[Pokémon League]]. He is a member of an organization called the [[Pokémon G-Men]].

Lance's first appeared in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] started up an evil scheme at the [[Lake of Rage]], Lance showed up to investigate. He met {{Ash}}, [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] there, saving the children from some formidable [[Rocket Grunts]]. Ash wanted to help Lance in his mission, but Lance said it was too dangerous.

Team Rocket was trying to investigate the properties of a {{shiny2|Red}} {{p|Gyarados}} so that they could learn how to force Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Lance was able to destroy Team Rocket's machine and blow up their laboratory. Ash was able to calm the [[Red Gyarados]] at first, but it continued to go berserk. Finally, Lance caught it to keep it from destroying [[Mahogany Town]].

Lance later appeared again in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', where he helped stop the rampage of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Lance Special.png|300px|right|thumb|Lance on his {{p|Aerodactyl}}]]
Lance is primarily a villain in [[Pokémon Special]]. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people who he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon.

Apparently also from [[Viridian City]], Lance was blessed with the powers of the [[Viridian Forest]] as {{Special|Yellow}} was. He has the power to telepathically communicate with Pokémon, as well as heal their wounds.

Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).

Lance tried to summon {{p|Lugia}} on [[Cerise Island]] to help accomplish his goals, but Yellow's Pokémon were able to drive Lugia away. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. He gave {{Special|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a Tyranitar. Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Mask of Ice]].

==Trivia==
* Every Pokémon Lance battles with, save in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, knows {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
* Lance has battles with two illegal Pokémon: the Aerodactyl that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and the Dragonite that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in Red and Blue. Furthermore, all his Dragonite from [[Generation II]] are underleveled.
* It is interesting to note that as of {{game|Yellow}} Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}} shows artwork of him with purple hair. This is probably due to the fact that the board game was made before Yellow was released and his sprite in Red and Blue is grayish-blue in color.
* Though his type theme is Dragon Pokémon, in Generation II, only three of his Pokémon are actually of the Dragon type; all of them Dragonite. Interestingly, all six of his Pokémon have {{t|Flying}} as their secondary type.
* Lance, [[Bruno]], and [[Koga]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations.
* When you fight Lance during the rematch in HeartGold/SoulSilver, he has possession of all three of the Dragon Pseudo Legendaries.

'''Lt. Surge''' (Japanese: '''マチス''' ''Matis'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Vermilion City]]'s {{pkmn|Gym}}, known officially as the [[Vermilion Gym]]. He hands out the {{Badge|Thunder}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in {{type2|Electric}} [[Pokémon]].

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimorisurgeoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Lt. Surge from Pokémon Red and Blue]]
Lt. Surge is known as ''The Lightning American''. Apparently, he is or was an [[wp:Soldier|American soldier]] who fought in at least one war, during which Electric-type Pokémon saved his life. As a member of the [[wp:United States Army|army]], Surge was a strict [[wp:Commanding officer|CO]], and was rather cautious. He was a pilot as well, and used Electric-type Pokémon to power his planes. Also, Surge saved the life of one of the trainers in his gym who was in the army at the same time.

A little paranoid (a result of possible war trauma), Lt. Surge installed a series of traps in the gym. He takes a liking to trainers with a lot of guts.

In addition to the Thunder Badge, Lt. Surge gives out {{TM|24|Thunderbolt}}, in [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red, Blue]], [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Green]], and {{v2|Yellow}}. In {{v2|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, he gives out {{TM|34|Shock Wave}}. In {{2v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, he doesn't give out a [[TM]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:surgeface.jpg|left|thumb|220px|Lt. Surge in the anime]]
Lt. Surge made his only anime appearance in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]''. He has also appeared in a flashback in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]''.

Lt. Surge is an extremely large and muscular man, and seems to be the show's tallest human character. He is arrogant, loud, and crude, and refers to all trainers as "babies" until they manage to defeat him. Lt. Surge generally looks down on unevolved Pokémon, preferring to evolve them as soon as possible.

His {{p|Raichu}} shares many of his personality traits, also appearing to be rather tough.
Lt. Surge's main weakness was that he evolved his Pokémon too quickly without taking the time to teach them the proper attacks. Even though he managed to defeat {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}} once with pure power, Pikachu was able to use speed-altering moves like {{m|Agility}} to get the best of Raichu.

{{trainerpkmn|note=b|main=yes|Lt. Surge|Raichu|{{electric color}}|Surge'sRaichu.png|After evolving it from Pikachu as soon as he capture it, Raichu became Lt. Surge's main Pokémon and his powerhouse. Able to take out many trainers' Pokémon easily, Raichu had an arrogant demeanor. However, due to Lt. Surge's evolving of Raichu as quickly as possible, Raichu lacked the speed attacks that Pikachu learns and this ended up losing to {{AP|Pikachu}}.}}

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[File:Lt. Surge and Sabrina.png|right|thumb|Lt. Surge and his Raichu (left) with Sabrina and her Mr. Mime (right)]]

Lt. Surge is one of the evil leaders of [[Team Rocket]]. In his debut round, ''[[PS010|Danger: High Voltorb]]'', he used the [[S.S. Anne]] in Vermilion City to transport captured Pokémon illegally. He tried to kill {{Special|Red}}, but was bested after Red's {{p|Poliwhirl}} evolved into [[Poli|Poliwrath]].

Lt. Surge captured {{p|Zapdos}} at the [[Power Plant]] under [[Giovanni]]'s orders. However, he, along with the rest of Team Rocket, was dispersed when the [[Zapmolcuno|chimera]] made from the [[Legendary Pokémon]] was defeated by Red, {{Special|Blue}}, and {{Special|Green}} in [[Saffron City]].

Some time later, the [[Elite Four]] tried to destroy humanity. Team Rocket joined up with the trainers from [[Pallet Town]] to stop them. During the battle against the [[Elite Four]] on [[Cerise Island]], Lt. Surge was paired with {{Special|Red}} according to [[Sabrina]]'s [[Spoons of Destiny]]. However, with Red absent due to injuries, Lt. Surge picked [[Bill]] as his partner instead.

In [[Johto]], Lt. Surge went to [[Mahogany Town]] to investigate the rise of Team Rocket under a different leader. He confronted the [[Mask of Ice]], but lost and barely managed to escape with his life.

The manga version of Lt. Surge prefers to travel by sea, as he is a sailor. He can also fly through the air by having three of his {{p|Magneton}} create an energy platform for him to ride on.

In battle, Lt. Surge generally prefers to use his {{p|Electabuzz}} to zap anything that gets in his way. He also uses other Electric-type Pokémon to provide distractions with {{m|Selfdestruct}}.

==Trivia==
[[Image:surgegym.jpg|right|thumb|180px|Lt. Surge's incredible height]]
* His Japanese Leader title is {{tt|イナズマ　アメリカン！|Lightning American!}}.
* He uses several English phrases such as "Goddamn" in the Japanese anime.
* His image in the anime is vastly different than in his Sugimori artwork. For example, in his artwork, he looks like an average, clean-cut soldier. In the anime, he is extremely muscular and very rough-looking, unlike a soldier. He is also incredibly tall in the anime, as opposed to everywhere else where he is of average height.
* Due to his team in {{game|Yellow}} consisting solely of a {{p|Raichu}} (to mimic the anime), he is the only Gym Leader to have only one Pokémon when fought in the games (Unless [[Tate and Liza]]'s Solrock and Lunatone are counted separately in Ruby and Sapphire).
* As a member of the United States Army, Lt. Surge is one of two Gym Leaders known to have taken residence outside the [[Pokémon nation]], the other is [[Fantina]].

{{spoilers}}
I added some spoiler warnings to the pages about movie characters, as they contained major spoilers for the movies in which they appeared, but then someone deleted them all! Surely it's really important to have warnings on these pages?! [[User:Taromon777|Taromon777]] 14:13, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

::But visitors need to be warned that there are spoilers on the page! What's the point in having any spoiler warnings at all if only some of the articles with spoilers have them? Some people might read the Latios (anime) article example, thinking it doesn't contain spoilers because it has no spoiler warning, and then find out the entire plot of Heroes before they watch it! I know this is an encyclopedia, but it is still really important to include spoiler warnings on all the pages which contain them. Why don't the articles about movie characters need spoiler warnings even though they contain the exact same spoilers that the articles about the movies do? Why did my spoiler warnings get deleted?

I saw that you deleted the error that I put under [[EP240]] that goes like this "Egan commands his Flareon to use a "Flaming Tackle" which is not an actual move. This move is much like the move [[Flare Blitz]] which was introduced in [[Generation IV]]."

::::::::I mean, if even a scan basically shows her naked (yeah, I know, she has foam bubbles covering her, but since it's not a towel or any clothing, it still counts), that pretty much means that she's naked. Besides, if the title means anything, the contest she wins the ribbon in is quite literally in a hot bathing spring. Common sense dictates that people who are bathing in the Hot Spring would not wear a towel when they are actually IN the spring [unless they are extremely modest], and since the title of the episode implies that she wins a contest that's held within a Hot Spring (meaning the contest stage is the spring itself), put two-and-two together, and it's evident that this is the case. It's not Fanwank, BTW, it's common sense and logic. In order for it to be fanwank, it needs to be something that people are speculating that defies even common sense and logic (EG, having Dawn participate a contest in a regular contest hall in the nude for no reason whatsoever).

::::::::::Fine, I will. But before I drop the subject from the talk page, I just want to point out that, while it is true that it could just as easily be her bathing with Piplup, it's placement directly under the scan (which some people assumed was fake, BTW, and that's NOT an opinion) would imply that it's more than that (If they weren't going to imply that the contest would require the contestants not wear clothes, they would have placed a scan with Dawn wearing a bathing suit in a battle/appeal position instead.).

:::::::They're not showing nude girls. That's the dumbest fanwanked crap I've ever heard. The forums over-exaggerate things... --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 10:31, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Please explain why Dawn isn't wearing a towel in this?
::::::::http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/8753/147up.jpg
::::::::I mean, if even a scan basically shows her naked (yeah, I know, she has foam bubbles covering her, but since it's not a towel or any clothing, it still counts), that pretty much means that she's naked. Besides, if the title means anything, the contest she wins the ribbon in is quite literally in a hot bathing spring. Common sense dictates that people who are bathing in the Hot Spring would not wear a towel when they are actually IN the spring [unless they are extremely modest], and since the title of the episode implies that she wins a contest that's held within a Hot Spring (meaning the contest stage is the spring itself), put two-and-two together, and it's evident that this is the case. It's not Fanwank, BTW, it's common sense and logic. In order for it to be fanwank, it needs to be something that people are speculating that defies even common sense and logic (EG, having Dawn participate a contest in a regular contest hall in the nude for no reason whatsoever). [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 10:43, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::How do you know exactly what's going on in that picture? Who's to say she's not taking a bath with Piplup. That doesn't mean she's doing a Contest with no clothes on. Do you really think they'd do that? You are jumping to conclusions way too fast. Keep this on the forums. The last time they got involved, Dawn's Pachirisu was going to die in [[DP094]]. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 10:48, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Fine, I will. But before I drop the subject from the talk page, I just want to point out that, while it is true that it could just as easily be her bathing with Piplup, it's placement directly under the scan (which some people assumed was fake, BTW, and that's NOT an opinion) would imply that it's more than that (If they weren't going to imply that the contest would require the contestants not wear clothes, they would have placed a scan with Dawn wearing a bathing suit in a battle/appeal position instead.). Now with that point taken care of, I'm leaving, and I don't plan on coming back to this topic to respond. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 11:07, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::EDIT: sorry, but I briefly forgot. You asked me if I really think they'd do that. Well, to answer your question, yes. While I definitely don't want it to happen, I have had suspicions that this would indeed happen (especially given the gradual risque factor of Pokemon, most notably when Jessie and Giovanni were heavily implied to be nude (and in the latters case (cringes) nearly saw his butt) in Hot springing a leak.

== Kotone talk page ==

Excuse me, that was something about the article. I don't see how it's not worth having on the talk page. It is something of interest that could be put on the character's page and is worth discussing. You know, talking about. What the page is for. ~ [[User:BlueJoshi|BlueJoshi]] 05:51, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
:Uh no it wasn't. You were just expressing YOUR OPINION that Kotone looks like Mario. The talk pages are for HELPING the article. Saying she looks like Mario DOES NOT help.

== Anime episodes with similar stories ==

Since you are leader of [[Bulbapedia:Project Anime|Project Anime]], I though it was ok to ask you. What do you think about the idea of creating an article to list similarities between anime episodes, since the number of look-a-like episodes is increasing? We have, for example, [[EP21]] and [[DP073]], [[EP023]] and [[DP105]], [[AG080]] and [[DP118]], and now [[EP186]] and [[DP142]], episodes which the theme is almost (or in fact is) the same. It could be a considerable idea? -- [[User:RikkiKitsune|R<s>ikki</s>]][[User talk:RikkiKitsune|Kitsune]] 19:43, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
:Ehh... I don't think it's really necessary. For a show that's been on as long as Pokémon, there are bound to be similar episode. The trivia section is good enough to mention the similarities. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 19:56, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

I found a paras in Ilex Forest from a video on youtube (no emulater). Is this true? Can you find a paras in Ilex Forest if you don't believe me and really i did found a paras on a youtube video (JP and no emulater). [[User:DialgaPrimeX|DialgaPrimeX]] 17:47, 13 September 2009 (UTC)DialgaPrimeX
:Why wouldn't it be true? Paras was there in GSC as well. If you based your doubt on the fact that {{p|Paras}}'s page says it must be traded, that's simply because no one has entered the correct information yet.

== DP124 Synopsis ==

I was wondering how well I did on the Synopsis.

I tried to make a detailed adaptation from the show to the Synopsis as best I could.

I have my concerns about the areas relating to scenes where it just cuts to something else with out much transition. Like when it goes from Dawn's match with O to the Pokémon Center.

Sorry if this isn't the right place for this kind of thing, i just thought i should ask you. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 18:03, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

''"Welcome to Pokémon League, [[Player character|<name>]]. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Will. I have trained all around the world, making my psychic Pokémon powerful. And, at last, I've been accepted into the Elite Four. I can only keep getting better! Losing is not an option!"''

''"Even though I was defeated, I won't change my course. I will continue battling until I stand above all Trainers! Now, [[Player character|<name>]], move on and experience the true ferocity of the Elite Four."''

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Will.PNG|frame|Will]]
Will, along with [[Karen]], {{Special|Blue}}, {{Special|Silver}}, [[Chermaine]], and [[Keane]], is one of the children kidnapped by the [[Mask of Ice]] and raised to be his servants. Will was one of the leaders of the new [[Team Rocket]] formed in Johto. After the defeat of the Mask of Ice, he and Karen met [[Koga]] and [[Bruno]]. Together, the four formed a new Elite Four and have not been heard from since.

==Trivia==
*Will's hair falls over the left side of his face, leading to his left eye being whited out in some depictions. This has spurred debate as to whether he has one functioning eye or two. This is rectified in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, where his sprite clearly shows two eyes, both obscured by white. His mask thus acts like those of {{wp|Batman}} and {{wp|Robin (comics)|Robin}}.
*Interestingly, his Japanese name Itsuki is shared with a character from {{wp|The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya}}, {{wp|Itsuki Koizumi}}, who is an {{wp|esper}}. The {{type2|Psychic}}, Will's preference, is known as the Esper type in Japan.

'''Lance''' (Japanese: '''ワタル''' ''Wataru'') is a {{pkmn|master}} {{type2|Dragon}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a member of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation I]] and the League [[Champion]] in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]].

==In the games==
In [[Generation I]] and the [[Generation III]] remakes, Lance is the fourth and final member of the [[Elite Four]]. He must be defeated before facing [[Blue (game)|Blue]], the [[League Champion]]. By the [[Generation II]] games, he has proceeded to become League Champion.

He raises {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon, which are both hard to catch and raise, but he prefers the superiority of Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be virtually indestructible.

Known as a cool and heroic Trainer, Lance has a large fan-following. Lance also seems to have a liking for capes, as he is often seen buying identical capes at the [[Celadon Department Store]].

Lance's grandfather was the elder of a famous clan of Dragon masters. [[Clair]] is his cousin, and his hometown is [[Blackthorn City]].

Lance appeared at [[Mahogany Town]] to help the player fight Team Rocket in [[Johto]]. Lance rewards the player with the {{m|Whirlpool}} HM for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans.

===Pokémon===
This listing is for Lance's Pokémon in the video games in which he has appeared.

===={{g|Stadium 2}}====

In Pokémon Stadium 2, Lance is the champion, who is fought at the end of the Elite Four. As the player must use the same Pokémon that it used against the Elite Four, Lance is extremely difficult to defeat with Rental Pokémon, but not impossible (due to the element of chance). Once Lance is defeated, the player can battle any gym leaders in the Kanto region at any time.

==In the anime==
[[File:Lance LoT.png|left|240px|thumb|Lance in the anime]]
[[Image:Lance Disguised TR.jpg|right|240px|thumb|Lance disguised as a Team Rocket member]]
Lance is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] famous in the [[Pokémon League]]. He is a member of an organization called the [[Pokémon G-Men]].

Lance's first appeared in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] started up an evil scheme at the [[Lake of Rage]], Lance showed up to investigate. He met {{Ash}}, [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] there, saving the children from some formidable [[Rocket Grunts]]. Ash wanted to help Lance in his mission, but Lance said it was too dangerous.

Team Rocket was trying to investigate the properties of a {{shiny2|Red}} {{p|Gyarados}} so that they could learn how to force Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Lance was able to destroy Team Rocket's machine and blow up their laboratory. Ash was able to calm the [[Red Gyarados]] at first, but it continued to go berserk. Finally, Lance caught it to keep it from destroying [[Mahogany Town]].

Lance later appeared again in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', where he helped stop the rampage of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Lance Special.png|300px|right|thumb|Lance on his {{p|Aerodactyl}}]]
Lance is primarily a villain in [[Pokémon Special]]. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people who he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon.

Apparently also from [[Viridian City]], Lance was blessed with the powers of the [[Viridian Forest]] as {{Special|Yellow}} was. He has the power to telepathically communicate with Pokémon, as well as heal their wounds.

Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).

Lance tried to summon {{p|Lugia}} on [[Cerise Island]] to help accomplish his goals, but Yellow's Pokémon were able to drive Lugia away. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. He gave {{Special|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a Tyranitar. Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Mask of Ice]].

==Trivia==
* Every Pokémon Lance battles with, save in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, knows {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
* Lance has battles with two illegal Pokémon: the Aerodactyl that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and the Dragonite that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in Red and Blue. Furthermore, all his Dragonite from [[Generation II]] are underleveled.
* It is interesting to note that as of {{game|Yellow}} Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}} shows artwork of him with purple hair. This is probably due to the fact that the board game was made before Yellow was released and his sprite in Red and Blue is grayish-blue in color.
* Though his type theme is Dragon Pokémon, in Generation II, only three of his Pokémon are actually of the Dragon type; all of them Dragonite. Interestingly, all six of his Pokémon have {{t|Flying}} as their secondary type.
* Lance, [[Bruno]], and [[Koga]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations.
* When you fight Lance during the rematch in HeartGold/SoulSilver, he has possession of all three of the Dragon Pseudo Legendaries.

'''Erika''' (Japanese: '''エリカ''' ''Erika'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Celadon City]]'s {{pkmn|Gym}}, known officially as the [[Celadon Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Rainbow}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She is a serene young woman who specializes in {{type2|Grass}} [[Pokémon]]. She sometimes dresses in elegant {{wp|Furisode|kimonos}} and seems to represent traditional Japanese beauty, and perhaps {{wp|geisha}} culture.

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimorierikaoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Erika from ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'']]
Erika's title is ''The Nature-Loving Princess''.

Erika is ladylike, and a teacher of flower-arranging. She is a quiet girl, but she's well-known in Celadon City.

Erika only collects Pokémon if she considers them attractive, though her definition of attractive seems to include varieties only a botanist could love. She also tends to doze off quite a bit, but will become inspired after a good match.

In addition to the Rainbow Badge, Erika gives out {{TM|21|Mega Drain}}, in {{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Red, Blue|s}}, {{game3|Red and Green|Green|s}}, and {{v2|Yellow}}. In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, as well as {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, she gives out {{TM|19|Giga Drain}}.

''"Hello... Lovely weather, isn't it? It's so pleasant... ...I'm afraid I may doze off... My name is Erika. I am the Leader of Celadon Gym. ...Oh? All the way from Johto, you say? How nice... Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't realize that you wished to challenge me. Very well, but I shall not lose."''

''"Oh! I concede defeat... You are remarkably strong... I shall give you Rainbow Badge..."''

''"Losing leaves a bitter aftertaste... But knowing that there are strong Trainers spurs me to do better..."''

==In the anime==
[[Image:Erika6.PNG|thumb|left|180px|Erika in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Erika appeared in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', running a perfumery in Celadon City where she sold a special brand of perfume made from the essence of her favorite Pokémon, {{p|Gloom}}. [[Misty]], [[Brock]], and {{AP|Pikachu}} were enamored with the scents, but {{Ash}} insulted the perfume. In protest, the manager, who was later revealed to be the Gym Leader Erika, had him banned from her store and by extension the greenhouse/[[Celadon Gym]].

[[Jessie]] and [[James]] were sneaking into the gym trying to steal the perfume scents to sell them, but they were stamped with a red X and banned from the gym, too. Ash found them and untied them in exchange for help entering the gym.

Disguised a girl named [[Ashley]], Ash signed up as a student at the Gym. Erika was reading a fairy tale to some Grass-type Pokémon when he found and recognized her. Pikachu instantly recognized Ash and exposed him. Erika finally agreed to a battle for the Gym Badge. She turned out to be very confident in her abilities, but became too confident when Ash used his Charmander - as Fire was Grass Pokémon's greatest weakness - when she tried to use her Weepinbell. However, their match was interrupted when [[Team Rocket]] started a fire in the Gym as revenge for being thrown out of the gym.

Ash risked his life to run in and rescue Erika's beloved {{TP|Erika|Gloom}}, who had once saved her from a wild {{p|Grimer}} when she was a little girl. Out of thanks, Erika awarded Ash with the Rainbow Badge.

===Pokémon===
This listing is of Erika's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:
{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|Erika|Tangela|{{grass color}}|noimage.png|One of Erika's battling Pokémon, Tangela is a strong Pokémon that manages to use it's vines and Stun Spore in order to incapacitate the enemy. However in it's battle against Ash, it managed to take out {{AP|Bulbasaur}} before eventually surcomeing.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|Erika|Weepinbell|{{grass color}}|noimage.png|Weepinbell was only seen briefly in battle with Ash. Against Ash's {{AP|Charmander}}, Weepinbell did not stand much of a chance and had it's attacks destroyed by fire. It was eventually skull bashed out of the match.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=yes|Erika|Gloom|{{grass color}}|EP026.png|Meeting Erika when Erika was under attack from a Grimer, Gloom quickly joined Erika's team. While it emits a horrible scent when afraid and around people it doesn't know, it doesn't when around Erika. However this scent can be used in battle easily to incapacitate any of it's foes.}}

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Erika.PNG|right|frame|Erika]]
In the ''[[Pokémon Special]]'' manga, Erika is an elegant young princess who gives lectures at universities and practices archery. She is allied with the "good" Gym Leaders of Kanto, and often assists [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] during crises.

She sent {{Special|Red}} out on a quest to capture an unusual {{p|Eevee}} that could change at will between its three elemental forms, due to being "modified" in a [[Team Rocket]] experiment. Erika threatened to kill Eevee; however, it turned out that she was just testing Red's character, then healed the Eevee. She debuted in ''[[PS019|Blame it on Eevee]]''.

Erika is the supervisor of the Kanto Gym Leaders, much as [[Winona]] is the leader of the Hoenn Gym Leaders.

== In the Pocket Monsters manga ==
Erika makes her first appears in [[Pocket Monsters volume 2|volume two]] of the manga. She appears with her {{p|Venusaur}}, preparing to help [[Isamu Akai]] defeat [[Team Rocket]]. Isamu and Erika attempt to steal the Silph Scope from Team Rocket as the guard the gym searching for Erika and Red. They hide in The bulb of Erika's {{p|Bulbasaur}}, however, they are eventually exposed due to Red's Clefairy "passing gas" inside the bulb. Team Rocket captures them, however, they eventually escape.

==In the TCG==
In the {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}}, the card {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika|16}} allows each player to draw up to three cards. Another card, {{TCG ID|Gym Challenge|Erika's Kindness|103}}, demonstrates her kindness, depicting her as helping a {{p|Growlithe}} out of the rain. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika's Maids|109}} enables the player to trade two cards in a hand for two Pokémon in the deck, both with Erika in their names. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Charity|99}} is attached to the player's Active Pokémon, and if that Pokémon is not knocked out, the card returns to the owner's hand; it allows the player to reduce the damage their attacks inflict on the Defending Pokémon. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika's Perfume|110}} allows the player to peek at the hand of the opponent and force them to summon any number of basic Pokémon from the hand to the bench.

As in the anime, she also appears to make fragrances, such as LeAF, depicted on Erika's perfume.

There is a [[Theme Deck]] named for Erika in the {{TCG|Gym Heroes}} expansion. It has two versions, [[Erika (TCG)|English]] and [[Tamamushi City Gym (TCG)|Japanese]].

==Trivia==
* Erika's Japanese Leader title is {{tt|自然を愛するお嬢様|Nature-loving Lady}}.
* In the ''[[How I Became a Pokémon Card]]'' manga, Erika was childhood friends with [[Kaede]], who had an unfortunate reaction to a flower wreath Erika gave her at a party and ran off in shame. They met again later when Kaede, now a [[Team Rocket]] agent, invaded Erika's Gym. Erika was overjoyed to see her old friend and seemed to disregard any and all ill plots.
* Erika is the only in-game Gym Leader that has the same name in Japanese and English.
*She, alongside [[Sabrina]], is also the only Gym Leader to have been defeated in the anime by Ash out of sequence with the games, if one discounts the change in order between {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} and {{v2|Platinum}}.
* Tangela is the only Pokémon Erika owns who has appeared in all Pokémon media that Erika herself has: the {{pkmn|anime}}, the [[Pokémon Special]] manga, the video {{pkmn|games}}, and the {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}}.
