'''Starmie''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''スターミー''' ''Starmie'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Staryu}} when exposed to a [[Water Stone]].

==Biology==
Starmie is an {{wp|echinoderm}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles two violet {{wp|starfish}} with five appendages each. The front starfish has a golden formation in the center. In the center of the golden casing is its red jewel core, which can glow in seven colors and has developed to resemble a cut precious stone. The second starfish is semi-attached to the back of the first and can spin 360 degrees. This rotational action is how Starmie swims through the ocean. It can also launch itself out of the water and fly through the air for short periods, as seen in [[Pokémon Snap]].

From its core, Starmie can emit electrical waves that are powerful enough to reach the furthest parts of the universe. The multi-color glowing of its core is also believed to be a method of communication with other members of its species. As seen in [[EP007|the anime]], the core will go dark if Starmie is knocked unconscious and will sometimes flicker if Starmie is low on health. Because of its body shape and habit of sending transmissions skyward, some people believe this Pokémon to be {{pkmn2|extraterrestrial}}. It has been known to cause headaches on people when approached. It is rarely seen in the wild since it requires a rare [[evolution stone]] to evolve, but it can be found in the deepest parts of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean}}. It feeds by absorbing tiny plankton into its body while swimming, and it is preyed on by {{p|Lumineon}}.

{{main|Starmie (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Starmie floats to the closest opponent and barrages them with {{m|Swift}}. Each hit does 3% damage, and touching Starmie itself does 12% damage. It has been replaced by its pre-evolved form Staryu in all future releases, in which it performs the same function.

Unlike Treasure Boxes obtained from dungeons, they are opened upon obtaining. Starmie's mini-game can be played once every in-game day.

==Trivia==
* Staryu was programmed to learn Egg moves in {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, but these moves were unobtainable because both Staryu and Starmie are [[gender unknown]] and so could only breed with {{p|Ditto}}. These moves were removed in {{v2|Crystal}}.
* Staryu, Starmie, and {{p|Mew}} are the only Pokémon species that are [[gender unknown]] but can legitimately learn {{m|Attract}} in [[Generation II]]. This move has no effect when used by these Pokémon.
* In the Japanese-exclusive {{jap|Pokémon Stadium}}, Starmie seems to have originally been a lot more rubbery than it is now, as its limbs stretch whenever it is hit.
* Starmie is the only {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Water 3}}.

===Origin===
Starmie seems to be based on a stylized {{wp|starfish}} such as the {{wp|purple sea star}} (due to its color), the {{wp|sunflower sea star}} (due to its many arms) or the {{wp|Celerina heffernani|Hefferman's starfish}} (due to its color and central pattern, especially in the shiny form). Like Starmie, many real starfish have the ability to {{wp|Regeneration (biology)|regenerate}} lost body parts. Given its ties to outer space and ability to emit light, it may also be based on literal {{wp|star}}s and {{wp|meteor}}s. It is also reminiscent of ornate {{wp|jewelry}}, with its central core resembling a {{wp|facet}}ed gem mounted inside a golden {{wp|prong setting}}. The standard color of its gem resembles a {{wp|ruby}}, while its {{Shiny}} color resembles a {{wp|sapphire}}. Its tendency to rapidly spin its body is reminiscent of {{wp|shuriken}} and {{wp|propeller}}s.

Its ability to learn various beam attacks and the gem in the middle acting like a heart might also be a reference to the {{wp|Ultraman}} series, where Ultra Warriors have similar gems on their chests, which will start flashing when they're weak, just like Starmie's gem as displayed in the anime.

====Name origin====
Starmie may be a combinaton of ''star'' and ''mystery''. Its name in English may involve ''me'' (in opposition to the ''you'' in {{p|Staryu}}).

'''Malamar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カラマネロ''' ''Calamanero'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Inkay}} starting at [[level]] 30 when leveled up while the game system is held upside-down.

==Biology==
Malamar is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles an upside-down squid. Several purple tentacles with bright blue undersides sprout from the top of its head. It has yellow eyes with black sclerae, a dark pink {{wp|cephalopod beak|beak-like mouth}}, and lighter purple eyelids. Its main body is dark purple and has six circular yellow lights on the front and back. There is also a yellow stripe nearly encircling its upper body. Covering its main body is a transparent {{wp|Mantle (mollusc)|mantle}} with two white fins on the bottom that function as legs. On each side of the mantle is a long tentacle with dark pink at the top and white, scythe-like fins at the ends. The edge of Malamar's fins are said to be supremely sharp.

Malamar possesses strong hypnotic powers, which is said to be the most powerful of any Pokémon. Malamar uses its hypnotic power to force others to do its bidding. People often utilize this ability for nefarious deeds. Malamar's hypnotic powers are said to have played a role in several history-changing events. It lures prey with the flashing pattern on its luminescent body and hypnotic motions, then ensnares them in its tentacles. The prey is then finished off with digestive fluids. Prior to [[Generation VIII]], {{m|Topsy-Turvy}} was its [[signature move]].

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Malamar (anime)]]====
An evil, psychopathic Malamar appeared in ''[[XY019|A Conspiracy to Conquer!]]''. It had hypnotized an [[Officer Jenny]] to pose as "Madame X". While it was defeated in the end, it escaped. Malamar reappeared in ''[[XY054|Facing the Grand Design!]]'' along with two other evil Malamar, where they attempted to initiate their plan of world conquest.

====Other====
Six Malamar appeared in ''[[XY054|Facing the Grand Design!]]'' along with the three evil Malamar. Unlike the three evil Malamar, these Malamar were peaceful and lived with Pokémon living in the forest. They later helped James and Clemont stop the three evil Malamar from completing their plans and rescue their friends.

A Malamar appeared in ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', under the ownership of [[Xerosic]]. Xerosic used his Malamar to battle several of {{an|Clemont}}'s Pokémon, but it was soon defeated. It reappeared in ''[[XY139|Facing the Needs of the Many!]]'', where it attempted to {{m|Hypnosis|hypnotize}} Clemont, but failed.

A Malamar appeared in [[JN115]], under the ownership of [[Alain]]. It fought {{an|Leon}}'s {{p|Charizard}} in the [[Masters Tournament]] and lost.

===Minor appearances===
Malamar debuted in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''.

==Trivia==
* In addition to {{p|Inkay}}'s method of [[evolution]] into Malamar being unique, it would have been impossible in any of the previous [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]] because the [[Nintendo 3DS]] is Nintendo's first handheld system with an internal {{wp|gyroscope}}.
* Malamar and its pre-evolution were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].<ref>[http://hitoshiariga.deviantart.com/art/Pocket-Monsters-XY-413536751 Pocket Monsters XY by HitoshiAriga on deviantART]</ref>
* Malamar was the only Pokémon with a [[catch rate]] of 80 until {{p|Bruxish}}'s introduction in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]].

===Origin===
Malamar is based on an upside-down {{wp|squid}}. According to Hitoshi Ariga, Malamar's upside-down design was inspired by the fact that squids are commonly illustrated upside-down in pictorial books.<ref>[https://twitter.com/ariga_megamix/status/921753659381202944 Tweet by ありがひとし/HitoshiAriga (@ariga_megamix).] Posted on Oct 21, 2017.</ref> Its body orientation and hypnosis ability may also have been inspired by the {{wp|vampire squid}}'s abilities to invert its tentacles and produce light. The fact that Malamar turns upside-down when it evolves from Inkay may also be a reference to {{wp|Torsion (Gastropoda)|torsion}}, a process in the embryonic development of gastropods where the body rotates 180 degrees with respect to the head. Malamar and Inkay are based on cephalopods, not gastropods; but both are mollusks. Malamar also somewhat resembles a {{wp|Owl|standard owl}}, which would symbolically relate to its distinctive wisdom/intelligence.

Additionally, as alluded to by Ariga,<ref>[https://twitter.com/ariga_megamix/status/1115591492926468096 Tweet by ありがひとし/HitoshiAriga (@ariga_megamix).] Posted on April 9, 2019.</ref> Malamar's physical appearance and its use of hypnosis to forcefully control others may be inspired by a stereotypical extraterrestrial supervillain, especially ones that are common in {{wp|tokusatsu}} shows.

====Name origin====
Malamar may be a combination of ''mal-'' (Latin-derived prefix for bad), μαλάκιο ''malákio'' (Greek for {{wp|mollusk}}), ''{{wp|calamari}}'', and ''mare'' (Latin for sea).

Calamanero may be a combination of 絡ます ''karamasu'' (to entangle), ''calamari'', 魔 ''ma'' (demon), ''nero'' (Italian for black), and possibly ''nero di seppia'' (Italian for {{wp|Cephalopod ink|cuttlefish ink}}).

Burger King PokéTrivia Cards

2022-08-20T15:13:08Z

LHakaLH:

{{incomplete|needs=How many cards were given with each toy? Missing and/or better quality are also needed}}
{{unknown name}}
The '''Burger King trading cards''' are a set of collectible cards which were distributed with the [[1999 Burger King promotional Pokémon toys]]. The cards came in an assortment to be separated along perforated edges. Each card features one of the 151 Pokémon that were known at the time (including {{p|Mew}}) on the front and a Collectible Movie Scene from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' on the reverse. There are ten Collectible Movie Scenes in total, appearing in sequence over the course of the set.

==Regional differences==
There are a few regional differences between the {{pmin|the United States|American}} and {{pmin|Canada|Canadian}} versions of the cards. The American versions of the cards have a trivia question about each Pokémon on the front and a description of the movie scene on the reverse. This was omitted from the Canadian version, likely due to the difficulty of fitting both English and French descriptions on the cards. Additionally, while the American cards have the Pokémon height and weight statistics listed in {{wp|United States customary units}}, the Canadian cards use the {{wp|metric system}}.

{{unknown name}}
The '''Burger King trading cards''' are a set of collectible cards which were distributed with the [[1999 Burger King promotional Pokémon toys]]. The cards came in an assortment to be separated along perforated edges. Each card features one of the 151 Pokémon that were known at the time (including {{p|Mew}}) on the front and a Collectible Movie Scene from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' on the reverse. There are ten Collectible Movie Scenes in total, appearing in sequence over the course of the set.

==Regional differences==
There are a few regional differences between the {{pmin|the United States|American}} and {{pmin|Canada|Canadian}} versions of the cards. The American versions of the cards have a trivia question about each Pokémon on the front and a description of the movie scene on the reverse. This was omitted from the Canadian version, likely due to the difficulty of fitting both English and French descriptions on the cards. Additionally, while the American cards have the Pokémon height and weight statistics listed in {{wp|United States customary units}}, the Canadian cards use the {{wp|metric system}}.

Burger King PokéTrivia Cards

{{incomplete|needs=How many cards were given with each toy? Missing and/or better quality are also needed}}
{{unknown name}}
The '''Burger King trading cards''' are a set of collectible cards which were distributed with the [[1999 Burger King promotional Pokémon toys]]. The cards came in an assortment to be separated along perforated edges. Each card features one of the 151 Pokémon that were known at the time (including {{p|Mew}}) on the front and a Collectible Movie Scene from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' on the reverse. There are ten Collectible Movie Scenes in total, appearing in sequence over the course of the set.

==Regional differences==
There are a few regional differences between the {{pmin|the United States|American}} and {{pmin|Canada|Canadian}} versions of the cards. The American versions of the cards have a trivia question about each Pokémon on the front and a description of the movie scene on the reverse. This was omitted from the Canadian version, likely due to the difficulty of fitting both English and French descriptions on the cards. Additionally, while the American cards have the Pokémon height and weight statistics listed in {{wp|United States customary units}}, the Canadian cards use the {{wp|metric system}}.

'''Ditto''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メタモン''' ''Metamon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

It can [[Pokémon breeding|breed]] with any Pokémon other than the Pokémon in the {{egg|No Eggs Discovered}} group and other Ditto, including some [[Gender unknown|gender-unknown]] Pokémon, to produce Eggs of the other's species.

==Biology==
[[File:Duplica Ditto Pikachu.png|250px|thumb|left|[[Duplica]]'s Ditto {{m|transform}}ed as a {{p|Pikachu}}]]
In its natural state, Ditto is a light-purple or pink blob-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with {{wp|vestigiality|vestigial}} facial features. It is often referred to as amorphous, but has a relatively consistent appearance in official artwork, including two small nubs on its "head", a few soft lumps at its base, and two {{wp|pseudopodia|pseudopod}}-like protrusions in place of arms. The face consists of beady eyes and a simple mouth; almost always pulled into a smile.

It is capable of transforming into an exact replica of any physical object or living creature, including its form and abilities. Each Ditto has its own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to transforming; being unable to remain transformed while laughing and getting details of its transformation wrong if based on memory being apparently universal. [[EP037|The anime]], [[Ditto (TCG)|TCG]], and some [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off games]] have shown that occasionally Ditto cannot change its face during transfomation; a trait that has become synonymous with the species despite being incongruous with their depiction in core series games. While its transformation ability allows it to get along with almost anything, it does not get along with its own kind, which it will quickly (and generally fruitlessly) attempt to transform into. It transforms into a rock when sleeping to avoid attack.

Ditto is never far from {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|civilization or people}}, and is the only Pokémon capable of using the [[Metal Powder]] and [[Quick Powder]] items. Its variety of unusual and often entirely unique traits set it apart from every other Pokémon.

==In the anime==
[[File:Narissa Ditto.png|250px|thumb|{{Shiny}} and normal-colored Ditto in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Duplica's Ditto]]====
[[Duplica]] has a Ditto that debuted in ''[[EP037|Ditto's Mysterious Mansion]]'', where they used to perform for people, only to lack an audience since people saw that Ditto could not change its face. Ditto fixed that problem near the end of the episode, when it was captured by {{TRT}}.

====Other====
In ''[[EP111|Hello Pummelo]]'', {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}} used a Ditto in a [[Full Battle]] against {{Ash}} at the [[Pummelo Stadium]]. It faced [[Ash's Pikachu]], but ended up losing after Pikachu used {{m|Agility}} and then slammed its tail down on Ditto.

Sometime before ''[[EP174|Imitation Confrontation]]'', Duplica found another Ditto, which she [[nickname]]d Mini-Dit. This second Ditto could transform into an exact mirror image of anything, but it could not change its size.

In ''[[AG083|Unfair Weather Friends]]'', a Ditto was [[Brodie]]'s partner-in-crime. It reappeared in the same role in ''[[AG119|The Ribbon Cup Caper]]''.

A Ditto appeared in [[PK15]].

In ''[[DP173|Dealing With A Fierce Double Ditto Drama!]]'', [[Narissa]] used two Ditto nicknamed Ditto 1 and Ditto 2. Ditto 2 is {{DL|List of alternately colored Pokémon in the anime|Ditto 2|Shiny}}.

In ''[[SM046|Deceiving Appearances!]]'', five Ditto were getting vaccinated at [[Aether Paradise]]. One of them escaped but was soon rescued. One of them reappeared in a flashback in ''[[SM047|A Masked Warning!]]''. All of them reappeared in ''[[SM096|Don't Ignore the Small Stufful!]]''.

In ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]'', [[Margo]] befriended a Ditto. It and a {{p|Teddiursa}} were targeted by [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon hunters]] looking for {{OBP|Zeraora|M21}}, but they were saved by Zeraora, {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}}, and his friends.

In ''[[JN019|A Talent for Imitation!]]'', a Ditto works as a film actor because {{m|Transform}} is unusually efficient for impersonations. Its latest role was in a movie directed by [[Kublock]], about {{p|Gardevoir}} twins, but it ran away due to Kublock's overly strict attitude and its increasing inability to use Transform as effectively. Ditto eventually ran into and befriended Team Rocket, who taught it how to overcome its nerves and regain its confidence. As a result, it returned to the set and production resumed without any further problems.

===Minor appearances===
In ''[[EP122|Flower Power]]'', a Ditto was part of [[Florando]]'s annual [[Pokémon Exhibition]].

In a flashback in ''[[EP129|Ignorance is Blissey]]'', a Ditto was at the [[Pokémon Nurse School]].

In ''[[SM131|The Battlefield of Truth and Love!]]'', a Trainer's Ditto watched the {{pkmn|battle}}s of the [[Manalo Conference]]. It reappeared in ''[[SM133|Battling on the Wing!]]''.

In ''[[JN001|Enter Pikachu!]]'', {{an|Mew}} transformed into a Ditto during a fantasy while {{an|Professor Oak}} was teaching [[Goh]] and [[Chloe]].

In ''[[JN050|A Pinch of This, a Pinch of That!]]'', two Ditto were in the [[Wild Area]].

{{main|Ditto (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
[[File:Ditto Melee.png|right|thumb|A screenshot of Ditto in Melee]]
Ditto was originally intended to be one of the Pokémon randomly released from a {{i|Poké Ball}}. It would have transformed into a copy of the user's character and aided them in battle. However, processing problems forced its removal before the game's release. Ditto can be still be unlocked through the debug menu (which is only accessible through the use of Action Replay), though it does not do anything other than give 7-8% damage to those who touch it.

As for its official status, Ditto only appears as a random trophy and as a cameo in the Tournament Mode menu. In Winner Out or Loser Out tournaments, holding down L and R and pressing A will give the player a random character and color. The usual character image will instead be taken by a picture of Ditto.

====Trophy information====
''Every Ditto has the ability to copy a Pokémon's entire cell structure in an instant and become its exact replica. They're terrible at remembering techniques, but when they use {{m|Transform}}, they temporarily learn all of their foe's moves. If a Ditto starts to laugh, it weakens and can't hold its transformation.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
[[File:SSB Ditto.png|thumb|250px|Ditto in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]]]
Ditto appears as a Pokémon summoned from the {{i|Poké Ball}}, where it uses {{m|Transform}} to duplicate the shape of the summoning character while still maintaining its own color. It then attacks opposing fighters. Ditto also appears as a {{sbw|Spirit}}.

Ditto first became available in {{g|GO}} on November 23, 2016, disguised as other {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the {{pkmn2|wild}}. Players will only find out whether a Pokémon is a Ditto if successfully [[caught Pokémon|captured]], upon which a cutscene will show the Pokémon transforming back into Ditto.<ref>[https://pokemongolive.com/en/post/ditto/ Ditto has been discovered... - Pokémon GO]</ref> Ditto can be used in {{OBP|Gym|GO}} and [[Raid Battle|Raid]] Battles, in which it will Transform into the first Pokémon it sees; however Ditto cannot be used in {{OBP|Trainer Battle|GO}}s.

As of September 1, 2021, wild Ditto may be Shiny, and some Pokémon whose [[Shiny Pokémon (GO)|Shiny forms]] are available may transform into Ditto. If a player encounters a Shiny Pokémon in the wild, it cannot be a disguised Ditto, but non-Shiny Pokémon have a small chance of being a Shiny Ditto.<ref>[https://pokemongohub.net/post/guide/how-does-shiny-ditto-work-in-pokemon-go/ How Does Shiny Ditto Work in Pokémon GO? | Pokémon GO Hub]</ref>

As of April 1, 2022, wild Ditto may be disguised as any of the following species:<ref>[https://pokemongolive.com/en/post/april-fools-2022/ April Fools’ 2-Oh?-22: Nothing normal this way comes - Pokémon GO]</ref><ref>[https://www.dualshockers.com/all-pokemon-go-ditto-disguises-transforms-april-2022/ All Pokemon Go Ditto Disguises & Transforms April 2022 - DualShockers]</ref>

==Trivia==
* Ditto is the only Pokémon to date with a [[catch rate]] of 35. However, in Generations [[Generation III|III]] and [[Generation IV|IV]], if Ditto transforms into another Pokémon, its catch rate will become that of the new Pokémon.
* Ditto and {{p|Manaphy}} are the only Pokémon that are both able to breed yet unobtainable through breeding.
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], Ditto takes the form of {{p|Bulbasaur}} in the [[Pokémon Island Cave|Cave stage]]. The {{player}} can cause them to return to their Ditto form by hitting them with an object. When the player takes their picture, Ditto has the same eyes when it is transformed as when it is not. This trait is shared by [[Duplica]]'s Ditto in the [[EP037|anime]], although it was understood that this was not natural. {{TCG|Ditto|Ditto cards}} from the {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} {{Trading Card Game}} expansion, the Clefairy Ditto that may appear in the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]'s slot machines, and [[Howard Clifford]]'s Ditto in ''{{mov|Detective Pikachu}}'' also have this trait.
* Ditto is one of two Pokémon to have two different species-specific [[Stat-enhancing item]]s associated with it, the other being {{p|Clamperl}}. Ditto's two associated items, the Metal Powder and Quick Powder, seem to be the same colors as Ditto's normal and {{Shiny}} forms, respectively.
* In [[Pokémon Rumble]], since {{m|Transform}} was not programmed into the game, Ditto can only know {{m|Struggle}}. Since PP does not exist in Rumble, this makes Ditto the only Pokémon in Rumble that can use Struggle. However, Transform does exist in [[Pokémon Rumble Blast]], so Ditto has a move from that game onward.
* Ditto is the most common Pokémon in [[Pokémon Trozei!]], appearing in every area. This is due to its ability to transform, enabling the player a way to advance further if no links are available before Ditto appears.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Ditto and {{p|Poliwag}} had the same [[cry]].
* Since Transform copies its target's stats (except HP), Ditto cannot utilize its Special Attack stat before Transforming, though it can use its Attack stat for {{m|Struggle}} and {{status|confusion}} damage.
* In [[Generation II]], a transformed Ditto keeps its original purple color palette (blue if Shiny).
* Since Ditto's only move, Transform, cannot copy moves in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series and has only one PP, its only move after transforming is Struggle.
** However, in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Red/Blue Rescue Team]] and in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time/Darkness]][[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|/Sky]], a player-controlled Ditto can learn the TM moves [[Vacuum-Cut]] and [[Wide Slash]].
** Since [[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]], Ditto is able to get the moveset of the target Pokémon when it transforms.
* In Generation VI, Ditto is only given one move animation (despite the two animations minimum most Pokémon have for contact and non-contact moves).
* On October 4, 2017, [[The Pokémon Company]] posted a Ditto-themed music video onto their YouTube channel titled [[Dit-to Ditto]].
* In [[Pokémon GO]], Ditto appears in the wild disguised as other Pokémon. After being caught, it will reveal its true form. At one point, a large amount of Ditto were seen disguised as the then-unrevealed [[Mythical Pokémon]], {{p|Meltan}}.
* Ditto is the only non-playable Pokémon that can be defeated in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].
* In [[Pokémon GO]], Ditto and {{p|Shedinja}} are the only Pokémon that cannot be used in [[Trainer Battle (GO)|Trainer Battles]], unless the battle is against [[Team GO Rocket]].

===Glitches===
====Index 000 post-capture====
In [[Generation I]], if the player manages to capture an [['M (00)]], it will still be in battle with the player, and the battle will not end. Catching 'M (00) again results in the second one becoming a Ditto of the same level.

====Transform glitches====
{{main|Transform glitches}}

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|Unused Pokémon design revealed in magazine interview}}
In the sixth issue of {{wp|Best Buy}}'s @Gamer magazine, Game Freak developers [[Junichi Masuda]] and [[Ken Sugimori]] revealed that Ditto was originally based on the iconic {{wp|smiley}} face. Its eyes and mouth are exactly like ":)", which is an emoticon representing the smiley.

Additionally, Ditto strongly resembles an ''{{wp|amoeba}}'', a single-celled organism with no definite shape. This may emphasize its ability to alter its cellular composition. This could also explain why Ditto is unavailable through breeding, since single-celled organisms reproduce differently from multi-cellular plants and animals. It also could partially be based on an {{wp|Cellular differentiation|undifferentiated cell}}, a cell in the body that can change into any other cell by sampling it. In addition, it could have been based on a {{wp|blob}} or {{wp|modeling clay}}.

====Name origin====
Ditto may be derived from ''ditto'' (that which was stated before; copy of a document; imitation).

Metamon may be a combination of ''metamorphose'' (to undergo a physical transformation) or ''meta-'' (prefix meaning "encompassing" or "transcending", which may refer to {{m|Transform}} allowing Ditto to take on the shape of every other Pokémon) and ''monster''.

{{spoilers}}

==Blurb==

After leaving Acapulco in search of Saffron City, our heroes finally arrive at a small port town in the middle of celebrating a summer festival. In order to recover from their hard journey, Ash and his party decide to participate in the festival. Team Rocket's interest in the festivities, on the other hand, is purely monetary. Brock and James are both bewitched by a picture scroll shown in a shrine open only on the day of the summer festival. The picture depicts a beautiful young maiden in a scene from the legend of Maiden Rock—a point on a cape near the town. According to the priest's explanation, the girl in the picture lived 2,000 years ago, and awaited the return of a lover captured in battle, until she finally turned into stone. Every year at this season, the ghost of this girl steals the spirit of a young man and this year it is James' and Brock's turn. What could the ghost possibly be after? And what is its true identity?

==Plot==
Traveling by ferry from the holiday resort of [[Porta Vista]] to [[Maiden's Peak]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} find out that they have arrived in time for the annual [[Summer Festival]]. After the group decides to go and enjoy the festival, {{an|Brock}} sees a beautiful girl with flowing purple hair and a red flower standing on a nearby pier. He immediately falls in love with her, but after being run over by a group of tourists, he notices that the girl has disappeared. {{AP|Pikachu}} is the only one that seems to notice that the girl is actually a {{p|Gastly}}, whereas Ash and {{an|Misty}} don't seem to notice her at all.

Meanwhile, {{TRT}} follows Ash and his friends to Maiden's Peak and they come up with the idea to look around for dropped coins; [[James]] gets distracted by the same girl that Brock saw before. As they leave to look for the coins, James takes a final look at the dock and notices that the girl is gone. During the festival, Ash and his friends meet an old woman, who warns Brock of a young girl who will "lead him to a cruel fate". After the old lady insults Misty, she decides that they should go somewhere else where they won't be insulted, and drags Ash and Brock with her. Meanwhile, while still looking for money, James is also warned by the old woman of the young girl.

Both Ash's group and Team Rocket head for the Shrine of the Maiden, where they are shown its greatest treasure: a 2,000-year-old painting of the maiden. Brock and James both realize that the girl in the painting is the same girl they saw before. A man then tells the story of the maiden, who waited on the cliff for her lover to return from the war, and eventually turned into stone; {{MTR}} formulates a plan to steal the painting. As night falls, Brock decides to stay at the cliff while Misty and Ash leave to enjoy the festival. Later on, Brock doesn't return to the [[Pokémon Center]], which worries Ash.

In the middle of the night, {{MTR}} tries to wake up Jessie and James so they can try to steal the painting. He's then confronted by the ghost of the maiden, who causes him to fall asleep, and then wakes up James. She also appears to Brock, telling him that she's been waiting for him. The next morning, both Brock and James are missing, with Ash, Misty, Jessie and Meowth looking for them. After finding them, the old lady appears again, reminding them of her warning about the ghost of the maiden; Pikachu shocks James and Brock, restoring them to their normal selves. They all head inside, and the old lady explains how all young men passing through Maiden's Peak fall into the ghost's curse; they ddecide to protect themselves from the ghost by buying a large quantity of {{wp|ofuda}} or anti-ghost stickers, and placing them around the shrine. However, when night comes, they note that the stickers prove useless, and the ghost of the maiden returns. Ash and the others try to prevent Brock and James from being pulled out by the maiden.

After being shot with a bazooka by Jessie, the ghost of the maiden summons several skull-like ghostly apparitions. Ash tries to identify them with his [[Pokédex]], but with no results; when Ash accidentally points the Pokédex at the ghost of the maiden, it identifies her as a {{p|Gastly}}, who's impersonating the old lady as well. Since Gastly's disguise has been revealed, it transforms back to its normal form. Ash challenges it to a {{pkmn|battle}}, sending in Pikachu, to which Gastly summons a living mouse trap to scare him off. Meowth states that mouse traps do not work on him, so Gastly summons a ball for him to play with, distracting him. Jessie and James send out {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}} and {{TP|James|Koffing}}, which are scared off by Gastly's newly summoned mongoose.

Ash decides that it is his turn again and calls out {{AP|Charmander}}, but Gastly summons a fire extinguisher. When he summons out {{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, Gastly summons a {{p|Venusaur}} and a {{p|Blastoise}}, which it then combines into a hybrid called "Venustoise". As a last resort, Misty tries to use a cross, garlic, a stake, and a hammer to ward off Gastly, comparing him to a vampire. As the sun starts to rise, Gastly disappears, warning that the ghost of the maiden and the old woman will return for next year's festival.

The following night, the festival continues, with lantern boats sent out to sea to help guide any wandering spirits. The [[Ghost of Maiden's Peak|true ghost of the maiden]] emerges from her stone self, thanking Gastly for keeping her legend alive and hoping her true love will return. Brock looks on at the statue, longing for another chance to meet the maiden. As the festival draws to a close, Team Rocket beat on some {{wp|Taiko|Taiko drums}} while Ash and Misty dance to the music.

==Trivia==
[[File:Mongoose anime.png|thumb|200px|The mongoose]]
* The priest says the great war the maiden's lover went off to happened 2,000 years before the episode's events.
* One of the creatures {{p|Gastly}} transforms into is a [[Animals in the Pokémon world|real-world animal]]: {{wp|mongoose}}.
* While the {{p|Venusaur}} and {{p|Blastoise}} that Gastly summoned transform into "Venustoise," they appear to be performing the [http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Fusion_Dance Fusion Dance].
* The outfits that {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} wear during the festival reappear in the fourth [[List of Japanese ending themes|Japanese ending song]], [[Pokémon Ondo]].
* The similarly named Maiden Peak is a real mountain in {{wp|Oregon}}.
* The [[Maiden's Peak]] statue is almost identical to the Orichalcum statue that was a plot device in early episodes of the ''{{wp|Slayers}}'' anime series.
* There are many Japanese cultural references in this episode, especially during the festival at the end.
* The festival is the first time Misty is seen with her hair down.
* The {{p|Gastly}} in this episode is the only known one to date that is able to speak and shape-shift.
* This is the first episode to feature another Pokémon, other than {{MTR}}, that is able to [[Talking Pokémon|talk]] without telepathy. The second is ''[[EP095|A Shipful of Shivers]]''.
* The kanji on the fire extinguisher Gastly uses to extinguish Ash's Charmander's tail flame was left unedited in the dub.
* In the {{pmin|the Arab world|Arabic}} [[dub]], this episode was removed for unknown reasons, likely because of the extensive representation of Shinto religious elements in ways that are against Islamic culture. It was also removed from the {{pmin|South Korea|Korean dub}}.
* The festival in this episode bears a striking resemblance to the one from the 1993 OVA ''{{wp|Mega Man: Upon a Star}}''. However, in this festival, there is no Whack-a-Mole.
* This is the first episode to show a real {{OBP|ghost|literal}}, as the true spirit of the Maiden speaks with Gastly near the end.

===Errors===
[[File:EP020 Error.png|thumb|200px|Ash's miscolored hat]]
* James commands his {{TP|James|Koffing}} to use {{m|Poison Gas}}, which Koffing could [[Anime move errors|not legally learn]] in a [[Generation I]] game unless it was [[trade]]d back from [[Generation II]]. At the time of the episode's original airing, no Generation II game had been released yet, meaning that at the time of this episode airing, Koffing was completely unable to learn Poison Gas by any means.
* When Ash says "We lose. It's just too strong", the red part that adjusts the size of [[Ash's hat|his hat]] is white.

===Dub edits===
* [[Kanto Pokérap]]: Day 5 (Version 2)
* The fan that Misty held had its kanji erased.
* Misty (or, at least, someone who sounded suspiciously like her) shouted "Let's go to the ferris wheel!" twice in the scene; specifically, right up to the part where Brock says "She was the most beautiful girl I've ever seen...".
* James finds a United States penny on the ground which was originally a ¥5 coin in the Japanese version. However, the ¥1000 and ¥5000 bills in the old woman's cash register were left unchanged.
* James mentions the F.B.I when he encounters [[Officer Jenny]].
* The Japanese version features the background music track ''[[Pocket Monsters Sound Anime Collection|Dazzlingly Beautiful Girl]]'', which is a rearrangement of the [[Pokémon Tower]] theme from the [[Generation I]] games. This track is not present in the dub.
* The {{wp|o-fuda}} they wear are referred to as "anti-ghost stickers" in the dub.
* Brock's "Hey! Let me go!" line in the dub was actually "You guys...!" in the Japanese version. The original version implied that Brock was in a trance and his friends broke the trance.
* Ash says that, since Gastly is a Pokémon, he can battle it with his Pokémon in the Japanese version.
* The ball that {{MTR}} was playing with had the word "Matatabi", meaning "catnip", which is erased from it in the dub.
* The mongoose says "mongoose" in the vein of a Pokémon in the original version instead of "Dinner time!".
* The final scene of the festival has a version of [[Pokémon Ondo]] being sung in the background, which is removed from the dub.

* ''Electric Soldier Porygon'' is the most commonly used translation: no known official English title exists for this episode.}}
(Japanese: '''でんのうせんしポリゴン''' ''Computer Warrior Porygon'', commonly ''Electric Soldier Porygon'') is the 38th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on December 16, 1997. The episode is infamous for resulting in over seven hundred Japanese people (ranging from 3-58 years old<ref>[http://cnn.com/WORLD/9712/17/japan.cartoon/ Cartoon-based illness mystifies Japan]</ref>) suffering adverse health effects, including {{wp|Photosensitive epilepsy|epileptic seizures}}, vomiting, irritated eyes and other related symptoms, due to use of a flashing strobe effect upon its first and only airing. Because of that, this episode was [[Banned episodes|never commercially released or re-broadcast]] anywhere in the world, and the show went on hiatus for four months.

The frames which caused the seizures are a four-second section in which {{AP|Pikachu}} uses an {{t|Electric}} attack on a group of vaccine missiles. The explosion—which occupies a significant portion of the frame—flashes brightly and alternates rapidly between red and blue. The seizures caused by this episode resulted in [[OLM Incorporated|OLM]] dropping strobe effects from Pikachu's electric attacks. For years following the incident, a disclaimer was broadcast at the beginning of all Japanese television shows, cautioning viewers not to sit too close to the television screen and to watch only in a brightly-lit room. (「テレビアニメを見るときには、部屋をあかるくして近づきすぎないようにしてみてくださいね。」)

{{spoilers}}

==Plot==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} make their way to the nearest [[Pokémon Center]] in [[Matcha City]] in order to revive Ash's tired {{AP|Pikachu}}. There, they meet a distressed [[Nurse Joy]], who reveals that the [[Poké Ball]] {{pkmn|Storage System|transporter}} has been problematic — the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} she sends never arrives at another Pokémon Center, and it was replaced by a different Pokémon. [[Dr. Akihabara]], the inventor of the Pokémon Transport System, is at the Center trying to figure out what went wrong with the system. {{an|Brock}} suggests that a {{wp|computer virus}} could be the source of the problem. Akihabara explains that the system couldn't have been infected with a virus because he designed the circuits so well. Ash confuses his explanation of a computer virus with a biological one and thinks the transport system is actually sick. Joy is told by Brock about an antivirus, which is a powerful software made to fix the problem. However, upon further investigation into the system, Akihabara unexpectedly gasps and suddenly bolts out of the Center, leaving Joy and the others confused.

Ash and his friends break into Akihabara's huge laboratory mansion to figure out what happened to him. Inside, they are startled by a giant holographic image of Akihabara's head. Ash and {{ashfr}} are led into a room with a giant machine. The doctor orders them to enter the machine, only telling them that they have entered a giant Human Transporter after he has sealed and locked the door. Akihabara then introduces the group to a {{p|Porygon}} and explains that {{TRT}} has stolen his other prototype Porygon, and are causing havoc. Team Rocket is literally inside the system and have set up a virus blocking the Poké Balls from reaching the Pokémon Centers and keeping them for themselves. Akihabara can't send the antivirus in there because it would kill them, so he decided to send Ash and his friends into the machine with Porygon to defeat Team Rocket. They refuse, but Akihabara starts the Human Transporter and the kids are eventually sucked into cyberspace.

The group falls into the Transporter system, but Porygon flies beneath them, grows in size, and catches them. Riding on Porygon's back, Ash and his friends go over to confront Team Rocket, who are celebrating the success of their virus, which looks like a roadblock sign. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] send out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}}; Weezing uses {{m|Poison Gas}} on them, making Ash and his friends cough. Then, Porygon regains composure and uses {{m|Conversion}}; its skin color becomes purple, like Weezing's. Porygon then charges, with the group still riding it, right into Weezing and Arbok, effectively [[fainting|knocking them out]].

Jessie decides to send their prototype Porygon out next, which looks similar to Akihabara's Porygon, except that it bears a "[[Team Rocket|R]]" flag on its tail and a zero on its forehead. Jessie's Porygon changes the shape of its head to give itself a sword-like beak and tries to attack the other Porygon, who has also changed shape to counter it. Ash and his friends decide to capitalize on the distraction to move the barrier Team Rocket built to hold back all of the Poké Balls that were intended to be delivered to the Pokémon Centers. Team's Rocket's attempt to stop them is stopped by Pikachu's {{m|Thunder Shock}}, and Akihabara's Porygon sends them and the prototype Porygon blasting off.

Despite this, Akihabara, represented by a floating TV screen, warns them that Nurse Joy has followed Brock's instructions and hired another technician to put the antivirus program into the computer; and it indiscriminately targets everything and anything, including Team Rocket, Ash, and his friends. Trying to fix the problem himself, the doctor did not tell Joy about Team Rocket. As the antivirus targets the group, Porygon gathers Ash and his friends to attempt an escape. From the ground, Team Rocket calls Ash out for running away, but are corrected by Ash when he tells them to run from the antivirus. The antivirus then launches a few rockets that destroy the remainder of the Poké Ball barrier, thus destroying the virus. However, the vaccine keeps going! {{MTR}} and the prototype Porygon rescue a panicking Jessie and James from the moving sea of Poké Balls and join Akihabara's Porygon in an attempt to escape.
[[File:EP038SeizureScenes.png|thumb|250px|Scene after Pikachu blew up the missile. For health and safety reasons, please click on the image to view the animation.]]
The vaccine transforms into an object that resembles a flying spaceship and takes pursuit. It launches more missiles that both of the Porygon dodge with difficulty. Inside the Center, Nurse Joy and the technician command the antivirus to unleash a powerful attack. Revealing a gigantic particle gun, it locks onto the prototype Porygon and fires a huge beam, sending Team Rocket downward into a cyberspace bug hole created by the powerful attack. The bug holes created by the antivirus's beam cause a system error, and Joy orders the technician not to use the attack again.

Team Rocket awakens at the bottom of one of the bug pits, and they realize that their Porygon is knocked out and that they cannot escape. The flying antivirus locks onto them again, but {{AP|Bulbasaur}}'s {{m|Vine Whip}} intervenes. Held onto Akihabara's Porygon by Bulbasaur, Team Rocket weighs Porygon down and slows its progress toward the exit portal. The antivirus locks onto Akihabara's Porygon and fires four more missiles, which it is unable to dodge. Pikachu steps in and launches a destructive {{t|Electric}} attack, detonating two of the missiles and giving Porygon just enough time to escape through the exit portal. The next two missiles hit the portal itself, destroying Akihabara's entire house, much to Akihabara's dismay, as his Human Transporter is now in pieces.

In the remains of the mansion, Ash and his friends are relieved to be back in the real world. Team Rocket spitefully thanks Ash for saving them and then quickly leaves, forgetting their prototype Porygon. Ash and his friends then decide to check in on the Pokémon Center. Nurse Joy is relieved to see the Transport system working again, oblivious to the fact that Ash and his friends risked their lives to fix the system. Ultimately, Ash and his friends decide not to tell Joy of the whole ordeal.

==Scheduling changes==
After the hiatus, the show moved from Tuesday to Thursday, where it remained until 2018. The original schedule was as follows:
{{Rescheduled episodes‎}}

In the wake of the incident, all references to Pokémon, including a [[It's New Year's Eve! Pocket Monsters Encore|new-year's-eve show celebrating Pokémon]] were removed from TV Tokyo's programming.

==Legacy==
The incident caused by the episode was coined by the Japanese press as the [[Pokémon Shock]]. Before the series restarted, a special report was aired on April 11, 1998, titled ''[[Anime: Pocket Monsters Problem Inspection Report]]''. In addition, an explanation aimed for children {{DL|EP039|Explanation of EP038 incident|was shown on the first episode after the incident}}. However, it has been known some children faked seizures to skip school the next day. Every Pokémon episode that aired up until this episode, including [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master|the opening]], was edited by lighting certain scenes, removing or changing fast-flashing scenes and more. The original version of the episodes have never been shown again, except by mistake on [[Hulu|Hulu Japan]]. The resulting hiatus also impacted the production of ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', leading to the creation of a prologue explaining {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}}'s backstory, as the episodes foreshadowing its appearance were delayed to beyond the movie's airdate.

To avoid further controversy involving the episode's central plot, {{p|Porygon}} has never had an important role in another episode since, despite {{AP|Pikachu}} being the one to cause the seizure-inducing explosion. Porygon's evolved forms, {{p|Porygon2}} and {{p|Porygon-Z}}, also remained absent from the anime until [[M15|the fifteenth movie]], and even then only appeared in cameo roles. Porygon itself has also made cameo appearances in the first four films and ''[[EP047|A Chansey Operation]]''. As an indirect result, its [[signature move]] {{m|Conversion}} has never been used in the anime since.

The seizures caused from this episode have infamously made the Pokémon anime a frequent reference when discussing Japanese anime and its quick action and flashy effects. Numerous television shows and movies have made parodies with [[List of Pokémon parodies|notable references]] by ''[https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/The_Simpsons The Simpsons]'' in the episode "[https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/Thirty_Minutes_Over_Tokyo Thirty Minutes over Tokyo]" (as "Battling Seizure Robots" which gives the entire family seizures) and ''{{wp|South Park}}'' in the episode "{{wp|Chinpokomon}}".

This episode also gave the Pokémon anime the infamous title of "Most Photosensitive Epileptic Seizures Caused by a Television Show" from {{wp|Guinness World Records|The Guinness Book of World Records}}.

On September 19, 2020, the official Pokémon Twitter account posted a tweet that read "Porygon did nothing wrong", likely as a reference to this episode, and modern consensus that Porygon was a scapegoat due to Pikachu being the franchise's mascot. The tweet has since been deleted.<ref>[https://forums.bulbagarden.net/index.php?threads/pokemon-twitter-deletes-porygon-tweet-controversy-and-history.282646/ Pokemon Twitter deletes Porygon Tweet: Controversy and History]</ref>

** Contrary to rumors, neither Blaustein nor Stuart said 4Kids reduced the speed and intensity of the flashing explosion to make it safe for viewing.
** The rumor about the existence of an English dub of this episode actually predates Blaustein's word. For example, the first answer Blaustein gave about this episode was a direct response to a user who mentioned reading on Wikipedia about the episode being dubbed: the line "4Kids Entertainment has actually dubbed Computer Soldier Porygon even though it didn't air" was added to the Wikipedia article currently titled {{wp|Pokémon episodes removed from rotation}} on March 15, 2006, and Bulbapedia was used as the source.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pok%C3%A9mon_episodes_removed_from_rotation&diff=next&oldid=43907788</ref>
*** In fact, when this Bulbapedia article was created on February 27, 2005, it had the line "4 Kids Entertainment have dubbed this episode and reduced the speed and intensity of the flashing explosion to make it safe, but the episode has still never been shown".<ref>http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=EP038&oldid=5596</ref> The line has been without a source until October 28, 2007, when "According to Maddie Blaustein" was added at the beginning of the line.<ref>http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=EP038&diff=prev&oldid=160862</ref>

* ''Electric Soldier Porygon'' is the most commonly used translation: no known official English title exists for this episode.}}
(Japanese: '''でんのうせんしポリゴン''' ''Computer Warrior Porygon'', commonly ''Electric Soldier Porygon'') is the 38th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on December 16, 1997. The episode is infamous for resulting in over seven hundred Japanese people (ranging from 3-58 years old<ref>[http://cnn.com/WORLD/9712/17/japan.cartoon/ Cartoon-based illness mystifies Japan]</ref>) suffering adverse health effects, including {{wp|Photosensitive epilepsy|epileptic seizures}}, vomiting, irritated eyes and other related symptoms, due to use of a flashing strobe effect upon its first and only airing. Because of that, this episode was [[Banned episodes|never commercially released or re-broadcast]] anywhere in the world, and the show went on hiatus for four months.

The frames which caused the seizures are a four-second section in which {{AP|Pikachu}} uses an {{t|Electric}} attack on a group of vaccine missiles. The explosion—which occupies a significant portion of the frame—flashes brightly and alternates rapidly between red and blue. The seizures caused by this episode resulted in [[OLM Incorporated|OLM]] dropping strobe effects from Pikachu's electric attacks. For years following the incident, a disclaimer was broadcast at the beginning of all Japanese television shows, cautioning viewers not to sit too close to the television screen and to watch only in a brightly-lit room. (「テレビアニメを見るときには、部屋をあかるくして近づきすぎないようにしてみてくださいね。」)

==Plot==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} make their way to the nearest [[Pokémon Center]] in [[Matcha City]] in order to revive Ash's tired {{AP|Pikachu}}. There, they meet a distressed [[Nurse Joy]], who reveals that the [[Poké Ball]] {{pkmn|Storage System|transporter}} has been problematic — the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} she sends never arrives at another Pokémon Center, and it was replaced by a different Pokémon. [[Dr. Akihabara]], the inventor of the Pokémon Transport System, is at the Center trying to figure out what went wrong with the system. {{an|Brock}} suggests that a {{wp|computer virus}} could be the source of the problem. Akihabara explains that the system couldn't have been infected with a virus because he designed the circuits so well. Ash confuses his explanation of a computer virus with a biological one and thinks the transport system is actually sick. Joy is told by Brock about an antivirus, which is a powerful software made to fix the problem. However, upon further investigation into the system, Akihabara unexpectedly gasps and suddenly bolts out of the Center, leaving Joy and the others confused.

Ash and his friends break into Akihabara's huge laboratory mansion to figure out what happened to him. Inside, they are startled by a giant holographic image of Akihabara's head. Ash and {{ashfr}} are led into a room with a giant machine. The doctor orders them to enter the machine, only telling them that they have entered a giant Human Transporter after he has sealed and locked the door. Akihabara then introduces the group to a {{p|Porygon}} and explains that {{TRT}} has stolen his other prototype Porygon, and are causing havoc. Team Rocket is literally inside the system and have set up a virus blocking the Poké Balls from reaching the Pokémon Centers and keeping them for themselves. Akihabara can't send the antivirus in there because it would kill them, so he decided to send Ash and his friends into the machine with Porygon to defeat Team Rocket. They refuse, but Akihabara starts the Human Transporter and the kids are eventually sucked into cyberspace.

The group falls into the Transporter system, but Porygon flies beneath them, grows in size, and catches them. Riding on Porygon's back, Ash and his friends go over to confront Team Rocket, who are celebrating the success of their virus, which looks like a roadblock sign. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] send out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}}; Weezing uses {{m|Poison Gas}} on them, making Ash and his friends cough. Then, Porygon regains composure and uses {{m|Conversion}}; its skin color becomes purple, like Weezing's. Porygon then charges, with the group still riding it, right into Weezing and Arbok, effectively [[fainting|knocking them out]].

Jessie decides to send their prototype Porygon out next, which looks similar to Akihabara's Porygon, except that it bears a "[[Team Rocket|R]]" flag on its tail and a zero on its forehead. Jessie's Porygon changes the shape of its head to give itself a sword-like beak and tries to attack the other Porygon, who has also changed shape to counter it. Ash and his friends decide to capitalize on the distraction to move the barrier Team Rocket built to hold back all of the Poké Balls that were intended to be delivered to the Pokémon Centers. Team's Rocket's attempt to stop them is stopped by Pikachu's {{m|Thunder Shock}}, and Akihabara's Porygon sends them and the prototype Porygon blasting off.

Despite this, Akihabara, represented by a floating TV screen, warns them that Nurse Joy has followed Brock's instructions and hired another technician to put the antivirus program into the computer; and it indiscriminately targets everything and anything, including Team Rocket, Ash, and his friends. Trying to fix the problem himself, the doctor did not tell Joy about Team Rocket. As the antivirus targets the group, Porygon gathers Ash and his friends to attempt an escape. From the ground, Team Rocket calls Ash out for running away, but are corrected by Ash when he tells them to run from the antivirus. The antivirus then launches a few rockets that destroy the remainder of the Poké Ball barrier, thus destroying the virus. However, the vaccine keeps going! {{MTR}} and the prototype Porygon rescue a panicking Jessie and James from the moving sea of Poké Balls and join Akihabara's Porygon in an attempt to escape.

'''Madeleine Joan Blaustein''' (October 9, 1960 — December 11, 2008), most commonly credited as '''Maddie Blaustein''', was an American voice actress for the English-language [[dub]] of the [[Pokémon anime]]. Her most famous role is that of {{MTR}}. In [[S01|season 1]], she was credited as '''Adam Blaustein''', while in [[S02|seasons 2]] and [[S03|3]], as well as the [[M01|first]] [[M02|three]] [[M03|movies]], she was credited as '''Addie Blaustein'''.

==Biography==
Blaustein was born in {{wp|Long Island|Long Island, New York}}.

In addition to being a voice actress, Blaustein was also an artist and writer. She had written and edited for {{wp|Marvel Comics}} and, at the time of her death, was the senior digital artist at {{wp|DC Comics}}.

She had also collaborated with Gina Kamentsky on the cartoon ''Platform 6''. Additionally, she coached [[Kayzie Rogers]] for anime voice acting.

As a voice actor, Blaustein was one of the original voice actors on Pokémon. Rogers helped her get her first role on the show, where she initially only played [[Character of the day|characters of the day]], but after [[EP032]], she took over [[Nathan Price]]'s role as {{MTR}}.

* Blaustein and [[Ikue Ohtani]] are the only actors listed as reprising their anime roles (Meowth and Pikachu, respectively) in ''[[Pokémon Live!]]''. While Ohtani is listed as the voice of Pikachu in the show, considering Ohtani's role in the dub is just a reuse of her work from the Japanese version, it's likely only archive recordings of Ikue Ohtani were used for Pikachu in the show. Given this, Maddie is very likely the only actor from the anime to actually contribute a new performance for the live show.

* Blaustein and [[Ikue Ohtani]] are the only actors listed as reprising their anime roles (Meowth and Pikachu, respectively) in ''[[Pokémon Live!]]''. While Ohtani is listed as the voice of Pikachu in the show, considering Ohtani's role in the dub is just a reuse of her work from the Japanese version, it's likely only archive recordings of Ikue Ohtani were used for Pikachu in the show. Given this, Maddie is very likely the only actor from the anime to actually contribute a new performance for the live show.

{{Featured|December 17, 2008}}

[[File:Maddie Blaustein.jpg|thumb|Maddie Blaustein]]
'''Madeleine Joan Blaustein''' (October 9, 1960 — December 11, 2008), most commonly credited as '''Maddie Blaustein''', was an American voice actress for the English-language [[dub]] of the [[Pokémon anime]]. Her most famous role is that of {{MTR}}. In [[S01|season 1]], she was credited as '''Adam Blaustein''', while in [[S02|seasons 2]] and [[S03|3]], as well as the [[M01|first]] [[M02|three]] [[M03|movies]], she was credited as '''Addie Blaustein'''.

==Biography==
Blaustein was born in {{wp|Long Island|Long Island, New York}}.

In addition to being a voice actress, Blaustein was also an artist and writer. She had written and edited for {{wp|Marvel Comics}} and, at the time of her death, was the senior digital artist at {{wp|DC Comics}}. She also worked at DC's {{wp|Milestone Media}} imprint, and created the character Karmon Stringer/Rubberband Man for the ''{{wp|Static (DC Comics)|Static}}'' comics, as well as the Adam Evans iteration of the character for the animated ''Static'' adaptation, ''{{wp|Static Shock}}''. Blaustein was an artist in [http://www.trannyroadshow.com Tranny Road Show], a performing group composed of {{wp|transgender}} artists and performers. She had also collaborated with Gina Kamentsky on the cartoon ''Platform 6''. Additionally, she coached [[Kayzie Rogers]] for anime voice acting.

As a voice actor, Blaustein was one of the original voice actors on Pokémon. Rogers helped her get her first role on the show, where she initially only played [[Character of the day|characters of the day]], but after [[EP032]], she took over [[Nathan Price]]'s role as {{MTR}}. She had commented that she tried to view the Japanese version of the series, and one of her goals was to emulate the scream that [[Inuko Inuyama]] gives Meowth. She remained with the series until the end of [[S08|the eighth season]], when {{TPCi|Pokémon USA}} and [[TAJ Productions]] [[Pokémon USA recasting controversy|took over the dubbing and distribution of the series]]. Most of her roles were taken over by [[Bill Rogers]] and [[Carter Cathcart|Billy Beach]], who took over Meowth's role.

She returned in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness|special based on]] [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] as the voice of {{OBP|Chatot|Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky}}, which is her only role in the PUSA dub, as well as her final role on Pokémon before her death.

===Death===
{{bulbanews|Fan sites report Maddie Blaustein death}}
Pokémon fan sites [[PokéBeach]] and [[Serebii.net]] both reported that anonymous sources, at least one affiliated with [[4Kids Entertainment]], told them Blaustein died in her sleep of a stomach virus on December 11, 2008, after saying she was not feeling well.<ref>[http://pokebeach.com/2008/12/maddie-blaustein-passes-away Maddie Blaustein Passes Away - PokéBeach]</ref><ref>[http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?373102-A-Sad-Loss-To-Us-All-R-I-P-Maddie-Blaustein-1960-2008&s=be112a76d93f25482cfa52e9c18023be&p=9159007#post9159007 Hello, I'm Mary, and I am the source - Serebii forums]</ref>

Several days later on December 16, a blogger for 4Kids' The Buzz news feed posted confirmation of Blaustein's death.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20081220082420/http://www.4kids.tv/buzz/view/2005 Maddie Blaustein, 4Kids Voice Actress - 4Kids The Buzz]</ref>

Ghost of Maiden's Peak

2022-08-10T13:52:03Z

LHakaLH:

:''For the episode, see [[EP020]].''
----
[[File:Ghost of Maidens Peak.png|thumb|250px|The young maiden awaiting her beloved's return]]
The '''Ghost of Maiden's Peak''' is a [[character of the day]] and a spirit that haunts [[Maiden's Peak]]. She appeared in ''[[EP020|The Ghost of Maiden's Peak]]''.

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} heard the legend about how, over 2,000 years ago, the young woman's lover was sent off to war, leaving her desperate for his return. Though the days faded to years, the maiden refused to give up hope and eventually had her body bonded to the peak upon which she stood (oblivious that he had died in battle). Nowadays, the young woman's soul is said to still yearn for her lost love. At some point, a {{p|Gastly}} decided to keep her story alive and posed as her so it could commit mischief. The only notable difference between the two is that Gastly is all white, while the real Maiden has light skin, purple hair, a pale blue dress with a red ribbon, and a red flower in her hair. However, at the beginning of the episode, Gastly did adopt the latter appearance.

According to the legend, she is notorious for stealing the hearts of young men, putting them in a trance-like state and stealing them away from this world. This seemed to be demonstrated on {{an|Brock}} and [[James]], but Ash, {{an|Misty}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, [[Jessie]], and {{MTR}} eventually realized it was Gastly's doing.

'''Misdreavus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムウマ''' ''Muma'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Mismagius}} when exposed to a [[Dusk Stone]].

==Biology==
Misdreavus is a dark bluish-green, ghost-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. While it has no visible arms or legs, its lower half has several small appendages and resembles a ruffled dress. It has several round red gems around its neck, which are used to absorb fear and use it as nourishment. When defeated, its body disappears, leaving only the gems around its neck behind. This implies that Misdreavus retreats into the gems when it has been severely weakened. It has long, flowing lilac-tipped "hair". Misdreavus's large, red eyes have yellow sclerae.

Misdreavus lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|caves}}. As a [[nocturnal]] Pokémon, it spends its days sleeping in darkness and its nights startling people with mischievous tricks. Since it loves watching frightened people, it is known to yank and bite at people's hair or sneak up on them and cry and shriek. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Misdreavus is shown to be able to use its "hair" to grasp objects and other Pokémon, as if it were hands.

Prior to [[Generation IV]], {{m|Pain Split}} was its [[signature move]]. In [[Generation II]], {{m|Psywave}} was also its signature move.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Goh Misdreavus.png|thumb|250px|Misdreavus in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====

=====Other=====
Misdreavus made its main series debut in ''[[EP259|Entei at Your Own Risk]]'', under the ownership of [[Nelson]]. He used it to battle and attempt to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} an {{p|Entei}}, only for Entei to use {{m|Roar}}, allowing it to get away.

In ''[[EP272|Johto Photo Finish]]'', four {{pkmn2|wild}} Misdreavus caused an interruption at the [[Silver Conference]] Hotel. It was eventually discovered that one of them was trapped under a fallen tree, so {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} freed it.

In ''[[AG128|Shocks and Bonds]]'', {{ho|Katie}} used a Misdreavus to battle Ash during the [[Ever Grande Conference]]. Although {{AP|Glalie}} defeated it, its using {{m|Destiny Bond}} caused Glalie to faint along with it.

In [[PK15]], a Misdreavus was living in the spooky house.

In ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]'', [[Zoey]] used a Misdreavus to compete in the {{ci|Jubilife}} {{pkmn|Contest}}. Misdreavus later evolved into a {{p|Mismagius}} prior to ''[[DP176|Coming Full-Festival Circle!]]''.

In ''[[DP148|Try for the Family Stone!]]'', [[Rhyanna]] owns a Misdreavus. She would often use it in battles that always ended in her victory.

In ''[[SM094|A Haunted House for Everyone!]]'', a Misdreavus played with [[Harper and Sarah]] at the [[Pokémon School]]. It was also featured in the dream a Mismagius created.

====Minor appearances====

In ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Misdreavus competed in the [[Rota]] tournament.

A Misdreavus appeared in ''[[DP004|Dawn Of A New Era!]]''.

In ''[[DP090|Ghoul Daze!]]'', a Misdreavus scared Ash and [[Angie]] off with {{m|Screech}}.

In a flashback in ''[[DP093|Playing The Leveling Field!]]'', [[Fantina]] was revealed to have a Misdreavus that is now her {{p|Mismagius}} in the present day.

In a flashback in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'', [[Grings Kodai]] was revealed to have a Misdreavus that is now his Mismagius in the present day.

In ''[[BW135|Mystery on a Deserted Island!]]'', {{an|Cilan}}'s demonstration featured a Misdreavus evolving into a Mismagius.

==Trivia==
* Misdreavus's [[The Legend of Thunder!|first]] [[EP259|two]] {{pkmn|anime}} appearances both involved members of the [[Legendary beasts]] trio: {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Entei}}, respectively.
* Misdreavus can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Murkrow}}. Both are {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} whose [[evolution]] process utilizes a [[Dusk Stone]], and their evolved forms were both introduced in [[Generation IV]]. Misdreavus is exclusive to {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}, {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}}, {{game3|Black and White|White|s}}, and {{game3|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Shining Pearl|s}} while {{p|Murkrow}} is exclusive to FireRed, Diamond, Black, and Brilliant Diamond.
* Misdreavus is listed after Murkrow in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex]], but its evolved form comes before Murkrow's evolved form.
* Misdreavus was the first pure {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon to be introduced, as well as the only one in [[Generation II]].
* Misdreavus's base {{stat|HP}}, {{stat|Attack}}, and {{stat|Defense}} stats are the same as {{p|Mismagius}}'s, but its base {{stat|Special Attack}}, {{stat|Special Defense}}, and {{stat|Speed}} stats are lower.
* In {{g|Colosseum}}, Misdreavus is the only Ghost-type Pokémon that can be snagged.

===Origin===
Misdreavus' nocturnal habits of wailing to frighten people and its similarity in appearance to a disembodied head are shared by various mythological creatures. One of these is the {{wp|Rokurokubi#Rokurokubi whose heads come off (nukekubi)|nukekubi}}, which shares the similarities of nocturnal habits, flying about as a decapitated head, and wailing to increase its victims' fright. Another possible source of origin is the {{wp|banshee}}, a female spirit from {{wp|Irish mythology}}, known for its unearthly wailing and screaming. Its shape also resembles the {{wp|Teru teru bōzu}}.

====Name origin====
Misdreavus may be a combination of ''mischievous'' and ''dream''. It may also involve ''mistress'', ''miscreant'', ''dread'', and ''dreary''.

Muma may be derived from 夢魔 ''muma'' (nightmare; demon in a dream).

'''Misdreavus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムウマ''' ''Muma'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Mismagius}} when exposed to a [[Dusk Stone]].

==Biology==
Misdreavus is a dark bluish-green, ghost-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. While it has no visible arms or legs, its lower half has several small appendages and resembles a ruffled dress. It has several round red gems around its neck, which are used to absorb fear and use it as nourishment. When defeated, its body disappears, leaving only the gems around its neck behind. This implies that Misdreavus retreats into the gems when it has been severely weakened. It has long, flowing lilac-tipped "hair". Misdreavus's large, red eyes have yellow sclerae.

Misdreavus lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|caves}}. As a [[nocturnal]] Pokémon, it spends its days sleeping in darkness and its nights startling people with mischievous tricks. Since it loves watching frightened people, it is known to yank and bite at people's hair or sneak up on them and cry and shriek. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Misdreavus is shown to be able to use its "hair" to grasp objects and other Pokémon, as if it were hands.

Prior to [[Generation IV]], {{m|Pain Split}} was its [[signature move]]. In [[Generation II]], {{m|Psywave}} was also its signature move.

==Trivia==
* Misdreavus's [[The Legend of Thunder!|first]] [[EP259|two]] {{pkmn|anime}} appearances both involved members of the [[Legendary beasts]] trio: {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Entei}}, respectively.
* Misdreavus can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Murkrow}}. Both are {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} whose [[evolution]] process utilizes a [[Dusk Stone]], and their evolved forms were both introduced in [[Generation IV]]. Misdreavus is exclusive to {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}, {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}}, {{game3|Black and White|White|s}}, and {{game3|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Shining Pearl|s}} while {{p|Murkrow}} is exclusive to FireRed, Diamond, Black, and Brilliant Diamond.
* Misdreavus is listed after Murkrow in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex]], but its evolved form comes before Murkrow's evolved form.
* Misdreavus is the first pure {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon introduced, as well as the only one in [[Generation II]].
* Misdreavus's base {{stat|HP}}, {{stat|Attack}}, and {{stat|Defense}} stats are the same as {{p|Mismagius}}'s, but its base {{stat|Special Attack}}, {{stat|Special Defense}}, and {{stat|Speed}} stats are lower.
* In {{g|Colosseum}}, Misdreavus is the only Ghost-type Pokémon that can be snagged.

===Origin===
Misdreavus' nocturnal habits of wailing to frighten people and its similarity in appearance to a disembodied head are shared by various mythological creatures. One of these is the {{wp|Rokurokubi#Rokurokubi whose heads come off (nukekubi)|nukekubi}}, which shares the similarities of nocturnal habits, flying about as a decapitated head, and wailing to increase its victims' fright. Another possible source of origin is the {{wp|banshee}}, a female spirit from {{wp|Irish mythology}}, known for its unearthly wailing and screaming. Its shape also resembles the {{wp|Teru teru bōzu}}.

====Name origin====
Misdreavus may be a combination of ''mischievous'' and ''dream''. It may also involve ''mistress'', ''miscreant'', ''dread'', and ''dreary''.

Muma may be derived from 夢魔 ''muma'' (nightmare; demon in a dream).

==Blurb==

After leaving Acapulco in search of Saffron City, our heroes finally arrive at a small port town in the middle of celebrating a summer festival. In order to recover from their hard journey, Ash and his party decide to participate in the festival. Team Rocket's interest in the festivities, on the other hand, is purely monetary. Brock and James are both bewitched by a picture scroll shown in a shrine open only on the day of the summer festival. The picture depicts a beautiful young maiden in a scene from the legend of Maiden Rock—a point on a cape near the town. According to the priest's explanation, the girl in the picture lived 2,000 years ago, and awaited the return of a lover captured in battle, until she finally turned into stone. Every year at this season, the ghost of this girl steals the spirit of a young man and this year it is James' and Brock's turn. What could the ghost possibly be after? And what is its true identity?

==Plot==
Traveling by ferry from the holiday resort of [[Porta Vista]] to [[Maiden's Peak]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} find out that they have arrived in time for the annual [[Summer Festival]]. When they decide to go and enjoy it, {{an|Brock}} sees a beautiful girl, with flowing purple hair and a red flower, standing on a nearby pier. He immediately falls in love with her, but after being run over by a group of tourists, he notices that the girl has disappeared. {{AP|Pikachu}} is the only one that seems to notice the girl is actually a {{p|Gastly}}, but Ash and {{an|Misty}} don't seem to notice her at all.

Meanwhile, {{TRT}} follows Ash and his friends to Maiden's Peak. They come up with an idea to look around for dropped coins, and while pondering it, [[James]] sees the same girl Brock saw before, only by the water. [[Jessie]] slaps James to regain his attention. As they leave to look for the coins, James takes a final look at the dock, noticing the disappearance of the girl. During the festival, Ash and his friends meet an old lady. She warns Brock that he should beware a young, beautiful girl who will lead him to a cruel fate. After the old lady insults Misty and Misty decides that they should be somewhere else instead of being insulted and drags off Ash and Brock with her. Meanwhile, Team Rocket puts their plan into action, though they do not seem to find anything. Then, James notices a penny lying on the walkway and goes to retrieve it, but is interrupted by the old lady, which Ash and company met just a moment ago. As in the case of Brock, she mentions the young girl to James. Then an [[Officer Jenny]] appears and takes the coin James found. When she suggests that they go down to the station with her to fill out a report, Team Rocket stammers that it is all right, they do not need to go down to the station, and then they flee the scene.

Both Ash's group and Team Rocket head for the Shrine of the Maiden. They see the shrine's greatest treasure, a 2,000-year-old painting of the maiden. Brock and James both realize that the girl in the painting is the same girl they saw before, and both attempt to approach the painting but are blocked by the man presenting the painting to the audience. He then tells the story of the maiden, who waited on the cliff for her loved one to return from the war, and eventually turned into stone. The two groups go to take a closer look at the aforementioned cliff, and {{MTR}} formulates a plan to steal the painting, with the intention of selling it for a lot of money, later that evening. As night falls, Brock is still at the cliff. Misty and Ash leave to enjoy the festival while Brock insists on staying at the cliff-side. When it is about time for the local [[Pokémon Center]] to lock the doors for the night, Brock still has not returned from the cliff, so Ash decides to go look for him, but [[Nurse Joy]] holds him back, giving Ash a short lecture on the importance of sleep.

In the middle of the night, {{MTR}} tries to wake up Jessie and James so they can try to steal the painting, but the two are not very eager to wake up. Suddenly a strong wind blows, and the doors of the Maiden's Shrine open. The ghost of the maiden floats out, causes Meowth to fall asleep and then wakes up James. She also shows herself to Brock, telling him that she's been waiting for him. Brock replies that he has been waiting, too. Ash and Misty start looking for Brock the next morning, while Meowth and Jessie search for James. Ash and Jessie then meet face-to-face and notice that they both are looking for a missing person. Jessie performs the Team Rocket motto all alone, but then hears James saying his lines. James and later Brock are thrown out of the shrine. As they all try to return Brock and James normal, the old lady appears again, reminding them of her warning about the ghost of the maiden. Ash's Pikachu shocks James and Brock, and the two finally revert to their normal selves. They all head inside, and the old lady states that all young men have fallen into the curse while passing through Maiden's Peak. They decide to protect themselves from the ghost by buying a large quantity of {{wp|ofuda}} or anti-ghost stickers and placing them around the shrine and the two cursed ones. However, when night comes, they note that the stickers do not work, and just like the previous night, the ghost of the maiden appears. Ash and others try to prevent Brock and James from being pulled out by the maiden.

After being shot with a bazooka by Jessie, the ghost of the maiden summons several skull-like ghostly apparitions. Ash tries to identify them with his [[Pokédex]], but with no results. However, the Pokédex is still searching for one and when Ash points the Pokédex at the ghost of the maiden, it identifies her as a {{p|Gastly}}, who is impersonating the old lady as well. Since Gastly's disguise has been revealed, it transforms back to its normal form. Ash then challenges it to a {{pkmn|battle}}. Ash commands Pikachu to start the battle, but Gastly summons a living mouse trap to scare Pikachu off. Meowth states that mouse traps do not work on him, but Gastly summons a ball for him to play with, distracting him. Jessie then sends out {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}}, only for it to be scared off by Gastly's newly summoned mongoose. James commands his {{TP|James|Koffing}} to attack with the {{m|Poison Gas}} attack, but the mongoose puts on a gas mask and stomps Koffing down.

Ash decides that it is his turn again and calls out {{AP|Charmander}}. Gastly summons a fire extinguisher, and Ash quickly recalls Charmander. He then summons his {{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, but Gastly summons a {{p|Venusaur}} and a {{p|Blastoise}}, which causes Ash's Pokémon to become too scared to do anything, and just because it thinks it is fun, it combines them into a hybrid called "Venustoise". After repeatedly being beaten by Gastly, Misty tries another strategy. She uses a cross, garlic, a stake, and a hammer, comparing Gastly to a vampire. However, the sun starts to rise once again, and as Gastly hates sunlight, it disappears, saying that the ghost of the maiden and the old woman will return for next year's festival. On the following night, the festival continues, with lantern boats sent out to sea to help guide any wandering spirits. Ash and his friends have fun, and everything is back to normal. As the episode ends, the [[Ghost of Maiden's Peak|true ghost of the maiden]] emerges from her stone self, thanking Gastly for keeping her legend alive and hoping her true love will return.

==Trivia==
[[File:Mongoose anime.png|thumb|200px|The mongoose]]
* The priest says the great war the maiden's lover went off to happened 2,000 years before the episode's events.
* One of the creatures {{p|Gastly}} transforms into is a [[Animals in the Pokémon world|real-world animal]]: {{wp|mongoose}}.
* While the {{p|Venusaur}} and {{p|Blastoise}} that Gastly summoned transform into "Venustoise," they appear to be performing the [http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Fusion_Dance Fusion Dance].
* The outfits that {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} wear during the festival reappear in the fourth [[List of Japanese ending themes|Japanese ending song]], [[Pokémon Ondo]].
* The similarly named Maiden Peak is a real mountain in {{wp|Oregon}}.
* The [[Maiden's Peak]] statue is almost identical to the Orichalcum statue that was a plot device in early episodes of the ''{{wp|Slayers}}'' anime series.
* There are many Japanese cultural references in this episode, especially during the festival at the end.
* The festival is the first time Misty is seen with her hair down.
* The {{p|Gastly}} in this episode is the only known one to date that is able to speak and shape-shift.
* This is the first episode to feature another Pokémon, other than {{MTR}}, that is able to [[Talking Pokémon|talk]] without telepathy. The second is ''[[EP095|A Shipful of Shivers]]''.
* The kanji on the fire extinguisher Gastly uses to extinguish Ash's Charmander's tail flame was left unedited in the dub.
* In the {{pmin|the Arab world|Arabic}} [[dub]], this episode was removed for unknown reasons, likely because of the extensive representation of Shinto religious elements in ways that are against Islamic culture. It was also removed from the {{pmin|South Korea|Korean dub}}.
* The festival in this episode bears a striking resemblance to the one from the 1993 OVA ''{{wp|Mega Man: Upon a Star}}''. However, in this festival, there is no Whack-a-Mole.
* This is the first episode to show a real {{OBP|ghost|literal}}, as the true spirit of the Maiden speaks with Gastly near the end.

===Errors===
[[File:EP020 Error.png|thumb|200px|Ash's miscolored hat]]
* James commands his {{TP|James|Koffing}} to use {{m|Poison Gas}}, which Koffing could [[Anime move errors|not legally learn]] in a [[Generation I]] game unless it was [[trade]]d back from [[Generation II]]. At the time of the episode's original airing, no Generation II game had been released yet, meaning that at the time of this episode airing, Koffing was completely unable to learn Poison Gas by any means.
* When Ash says "We lose. It's just too strong", the red part that adjusts the size of [[Ash's hat|his hat]] is white.

===Dub edits===
* [[Kanto Pokérap]]: Day 5 (Version 2)
* The fan that Misty held had its kanji erased.
* Misty (or, at least, someone who sounded suspiciously like her) shouted "Let's go to the ferris wheel!" twice in the scene; specifically, right up to the part where Brock says "She was the most beautiful girl I've ever seen...".
* James finds a United States penny on the ground which was originally a ¥5 coin in the Japanese version. However, the ¥1000 and ¥5000 bills in the old woman's cash register were left unchanged.
* James mentions the F.B.I when he encounters [[Officer Jenny]].
* The Japanese version features the background music track ''[[Pocket Monsters Sound Anime Collection|Dazzlingly Beautiful Girl]]'', which is a rearrangement of the [[Pokémon Tower]] theme from the [[Generation I]] games. This track is not present in the dub.
* The {{wp|o-fuda}} they wear are referred to as "anti-ghost stickers" in the dub.
* Brock's "Hey! Let me go!" line in the dub was actually "You guys...!" in the Japanese version. The original version implied that Brock was in a trance and his friends broke the trance.
* Ash says that, since Gastly is a Pokémon, he can battle it with his Pokémon in the Japanese version.
* The ball that {{MTR}} was playing with had the word "Matatabi", meaning "catnip", which is erased from it in the dub.
* The mongoose says "mongoose" in the vein of a Pokémon in the original version instead of "Dinner time!".
* The final scene of the festival has a version of [[Pokémon Ondo]] being sung in the background, which is removed from the dub.

'''Ekans''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アーボ''' ''Arbo'') is a {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Arbok}} starting at [[level]] 22.

==Biology==
Ekans is a purple, serpentine Pokémon. Its eyes, underbelly, the thick stripe around its neck, and rattle are yellow. Ekans has three pairs of black lines encircling its body, as well as another line that connects to each slit-pupiled eye and curves toward its nose. Its large mouth has a round, pink tongue and no visible teeth. While painful, a newborn Ekans's bite is not venomous. This Pokémon grows longer with age.

Ekans lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy savannas and plains}}, where it moves stealthily through grass. It can also be found in forests and desolate wastelands, where it preys on Eggs from {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Spearow}} nests, but will strike other prey from behind. By flicking its tongue out, it is able to detect danger and the scent of prey. Its jaw can detach to swallow large prey, but such a meal can make Ekans too heavy to move or become stuck and cause it to faint. Like real snakes, Ekans can see their surroundings through thermal vision. It wraps itself around tree branches at night to rest. If not in a tree, it will coil itself up—a position in which it can defend itself from all directions. It was also shown in [[M02|the second movie]] to possess some swimming abilities. Its former [[signature move]] is {{m|Glare}}.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Jessie Ekans.png|thumb|250px|Ekans in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Jessie's Ekans]]=====
[[Jessie]] had an Ekans, which she received as a {{wp|chūgen}} gift (a [[birthday]] gift in the dub) prior to the start of the anime. It debuted in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', which also marked the species' debut. It was extremely loyal to her and eventually evolved into an {{p|Arbok}} in ''[[EP031|Dig Those Diglett!]]'' just to make her happy.

=====[[Team Meanies]]=====
Ekans was part of Team Meanies in ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters Out of the Gate!]]''. {{p|Gengar}} commanded the Poisonous Snake Pokémon to eat all of the {{Berries}} Team Go-Getters had collected. At one point, Ekans was incorrectly referred to as Arbok by Gengar. While this was an intentional error that Ekans rebuked in the original version (due to the similarities between the Japanese names), this came across as a general mistake in the dub and was corrected in reruns of the episode.

=====Other=====
Multiple {{pkmn2|wild}} Ekans in ''[[AG006|A Poached Ego!]]'', where they were captured by [[Rico]]. Jessie released her Arbok along with [[James's Weezing]] so they could protect these Ekans and a group of captured {{p|Koffing}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:023Ekans RB.png|thumb|200px|[[Ken Sugimori]] artwork of Ekans from {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Ekans was originally known as "Arbo", its romanized Japanese name.
* In early official art of Ekans, all of the bands on its body were colored yellow instead of just the one on its "neck". This was changed in later art.
* An Ekans was originally going to be featured in {{g|Snap}}, as shown in an early test shot of an environment that was never featured in the final product. This is also true of its evolution, Arbok.
* Ekans is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect [[foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
* Ekans and {{p|Goldeen}} have never been scanned with a [[Pokédex]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}, despite having made their debut in [[EP002|the second episode]] of the [[original series]], therefore making them the Pokémon with the most episodes aired since their debut episode without them receiving a Pokédex entry.

Ekans appears to be based on a {{wp|boa}} and {{wp|rattlesnake}}, and its facial markings resemble an {{wp|Indian cobra}}'s hood. However, its lack of teeth, ability to swallow large prey, preying on [[Pokémon Egg]]s, and reaction to threats are more akin to an {{wp|egg-eating snake}}. The yellow band around its neck may refer to the {{wp|ring-necked snake}}. Ekans and Arbok may also be inspired by the legendary {{wp|basilisk}} since they were originally the only Pokémon to learn {{m|Glare}}. The basilisk was said to be a poisonous, serpentine {{wp|dragon}} that would kill people with its stare, which may explain Ekans's place in the {{egg3|Dragon}}.

====Name origin====
Ekans is ''snake'' spelled backwards.

Arbo is an anagram of ボア ''{{wp|boa}}''.

'''Gyarados''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギャラドス''' ''Gyarados'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Magikarp}} starting at [[level]] 20. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Gyarados''' using the [[Gyaradosite]].

==Biology==
[[File:Gyarados Mouth Closed.png|thumb|left|230px|Gyarados with its mouth closed]]
Gyarados is a serpentine Pokémon with a long body covered in slightly overlapping scales. It is mostly blue with a yellow underbelly and a row of yellow spots down each side. Its mouth is very large and gaping, bearing four pointed teeth and yellow lips. It has one {{wp|barbel (anatomy)|barbel}} and a small white fin on each side of its face. The barbels are white on a female and tan on a male. It has small, red eyes, a three-pointed, dark blue crest on its head, and four white, spiky {{wp|dorsal fin}}s. Gyarados's tail fin is similar in structure to the crest on its head, except with a thin, white fin spread between the points.

The process of evolution causes a change in its brain structure that is believed to cause its violent nature. Gyarados's fangs can crush stones and its scales are harder than steel. Gyarados is feared for its fierce temper and wanton destructive tendencies. It appears in times of conflict and destroys the surrounding area. Its rampages have been known to last a month at a time. Gyarados lives in both {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|fresh and salty waters}}. Both Gyarados and its Mega form have demonstrated in the anime that it can leap huge distances both [[SS002|from the water]] and [[XY133|from the ground]], usually several times its own body length.

When it Mega Evolves, Gyarados becomes bulkier. The fins on its cheeks become longer and gain a yellow tint. Its crest is larger and black, and its barbels also gain considerable length. A large spike extends downward underneath its chin, and it now has a black underside with a red stripe around the edges. The yellow spots along its body are replaced by raised red scales, which propel Mega Gyarados through the water. Two large yellow fins with blue spines appear on its back. Most of the other fins along its back disappear, replaced by two rows of blue spikes. There are now four yellowish, spiky fins near is tail: two on its back and two on its underside. While its brain a powerful destructive instinct, it will obey a {{pkmn|Trainer}} it truly trusts. Mega Gyarados is tied with {{p|Hoopa}} [[List of Pokémon with form differences|Unbound]] as the [[List of Pokémon by height|tallest]] {{type|Dark}}.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Gyarados' name was ''Skulkraken'', a combination of ''skull'' and ''{{wp|kraken}}'' (a mythological sea monster).
* Gyarados's original design resembled a massive leech-like creature without eyes.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/pokemon-beta-designs-red-green-1265710</ref>
* Gyarados is tied with {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Regigigas}} for being the lowest level Pokémon encountered in the wild, as well as also tied with Magikarp for the highest level Pokémon encountered in the wild. In {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2 and White 2}}, Gyarados can be found at levels ranging from level 1 to 100 in the [[Nature Preserve]] by using a [[Super Rod]] in rippling water.
* In [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]], Gyarados is the first of only two [[Shiny Pokémon]] to be integrated into a game's plot (the second was {{mdc|Celebi|2}} in {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}).
* Gyarados is tied with {{p|Milotic}} for the greatest increase in base stat total after evolving, at 340 points.
* As of [[Generation VII]], Gyarados and its pre-evolution's [[Egg Group]] combination ({{egg|Water 2}} and {{egg|Dragon}}) is unique.
* As of [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], Gyarados is used by three of the nine Pokémon League Champions, being used by {{ga|Blue}}, [[Lance]], and [[Wallace]], making it the most popular Pokémon among Pokémon League Champions thus far (although Blue does not always have a Gyarados, depending on the player's starter Pokémon). However, Blue is the only one to use it in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].
** Gyarados is also a popular Pokémon among [[Gym Leader]]s, being used by [[Misty]], Blue, [[Clair]], and [[Crasher Wake]]. However, Misty doesn't use Gyarados during the Gym battle.
** Gyarados has also been used twice by two {{cat|villainous team leaders}}. The first instance was [[Cyrus]] and the second instance was [[Lysandre]].
* In many ways, Gyarados is the counterpart of {{p|Milotic}}. Both are the serpentine evolved forms of weak fish Pokémon, and both appear in times of conflict, Gyarados to destroy, Milotic to becalm. Both have base stat totals of 540, the only difference being the distribution of their {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Special Attack}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} stats.
* Mega Gyarados has highest Attack stat of all {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
* Mega Gyarados is tied with {{p|Hoopa}} [[List of Pokémon with form differences|Unbound]] and {{p|Umbreon}} for having the highest Special Defense of all {{type|Dark}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on a sea dragon or {{wp|sea serpent}} and {{wp|chinese dragon}}. Gyarados is partially based on a legend about how carp that leapt over the Dragon Gate would become dragons. Several waterfalls and cataracts in China are believed to be the location of the Dragon Gate. This is referenced by [[Pokémon Snap]], as the player needs to get a Magikarp into a waterfall to evolve it into Gyarados. This legend is an allegory of the drive and efforts needed to overcome obstacles (which can be tied to the fact that Gyarados' pre-evolution, Magikarp, could possibly take a lot of drive and effort to legitimately evolve into Gyarados).

Its {{type|Flying}} may be a reference of {{wp|koinobori}}, a carp-shaped {{wp|wind sock}} traditionally flown to celebrate the {{wp|Children's Day (Japan)|Children's Day}} in Japan, formerly called ''Tango no Sekku'' (端午の節句). It could also be inspired by the {{wp|Inkanyamba}}, a giant, winged, eel that causes storms when angry - a trait Gyarados is famous for.

====Name origin====
Gyarados may derive from 虐殺 ''gyakusatsu'' (massacre/slaughter) or 逆境 ''gyakkyō'' (hardship/adversity)—both words relate to the creature's violent nature and the hardship it experienced before evolving. In addition, 逆 ''gyaku'' means "reverse" or "contrary", possibly referring to how Gyarados evolves from a weak Pokémon to one capable of destroying entire cities, and, in legend, how the carp goes against the flow of the waterfall in order to reach the top. It may also involve 嵐 ''arashi'' (storm) or 争い ''arasoi'' (conflict, referencing on how it appeared during wars). The last part may be from 脅す ''odosu'' (to threaten), again owing to Gyarados' violent nature.

'''Squirtle''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゼニガメ''' ''Zenigame'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Wartortle}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Blastoise}} starting at [[level]] 36.

Along with {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Charmander}}, Squirtle is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Kanto]] available at the beginning of [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]].

==Biology==
[[File:May Squirtle Withdraw.png|thumb|150px|left|Squirtle in its shell]]
Squirtle is a small Pokémon that resembles a light blue turtle. While it typically walks on its two short legs, it has been shown to run on all fours in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It has large, purplish or reddish eyes and a slightly hooked upper lip. Each of its hands and feet have three pointed digits. The end of its long tail curls inward. Its body is encased by a tough shell that forms and hardens after birth. This shell is brown on the top, pale yellow on the bottom, and has a thick white ridge between the two halves.

Squirtle's shell is a useful tool. It can withdraw into the shell for protection or to sleep. The grooved, rounded shape helps to reduce water resistance when this Pokémon swims. Squirtle can spray foamy water from its mouth with great accuracy. Squirtle is scarce in the wild, although it can be found {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's Edge Pokémon|around small ponds and lakes.}} [[EP060|The anime has shown]] that it can be found living on secluded islands with other members of its evolutionary line. In the past, {{m|Skull Bash}} was its signature move.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Tierno Squirtle.png‎|thumb|250px|left|Squirtle in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Gary's Squirtle]]=====
Squirtle was mentioned in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', as one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] new Trainers in [[Pallet Town]] can choose from. Ash dreamed of owning one, and it was his first choice for his starter Pokémon. However, when he arrived at {{an|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]], he realized it was too late, as another Trainer who started the same day had already taken it. It was shown battling and defeating [[Samurai]]'s {{p|Metapod}}.

It wasn't until ''[[EP269|The Ties that Bind]]'' that it was revealed that the Trainer who took Squirtle was none other than [[Gary Oak]], Ash's [[rival]]. By then, it had already evolved into a {{TP|Gary|Blastoise}}.

Squirtle was seen in a flashback during ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'', which is set in a different continuity from the main series. Professor Oak revealed to Ash that it had already been collected.

=====[[Ash's Squirtle]]=====
Squirtle physically debuted in ''[[EP012|Here Comes the Squirtle Squad]]''. The [[Squirtle Squad]] were a gang of rogue Squirtle who were deserted by their Trainers. Ash befriended and {{pkmn2|caught}} their leader, while the rest of them became a firefighting group. Squirtle stayed with Ash until ''[[EP147|The Fire-ring Squad!]]'', when it returned to the Squirtle Squad. However, it briefly reappeared in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, to assist Ash with his final battle against {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}.

=====[[Squirtle Squad]]=====
The Squirtle Squad were a gang of rogue Squirtle who were deserted by their Trainers, who appeared in ''Here Comes the Squirtle Squad''. Ash befriended and captured their [[Ash's Squirtle|leader]], while the rest of them became a firefighting group.

=====[[May's Squirtle]]=====
{{an|May}} received her own Squirtle from {{an|Professor Oak}} in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]''. May's Squirtle was very young and timid but was used in several contests. Squirtle was later revealed to have evolved into {{p|Wartortle}} prior to ''[[DP077|Staging a Heroes Welcome]]''.

=====[[Team Go-Getters]]=====
The main character in ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]'' special is a Squirtle that claims that he used to be human. He joins Team Go-Getters in their rescue work. While he can't use {{m|Water Gun}}, he is happy to use {{m|Bubble}} because it looks pretty.

=====[[Tierno's Squirtle]]=====
A Squirtle appeared in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'', under the ownership of {{an|Tierno}}. Tierno's Squirtle had evolved into Wartortle by the time off ''[[XY065|Good Friends, Great Training!]]'' and then into Blastoise by ''[[XY091|Tag Team Battle Inspiration!]]''

=====Other=====
Multiple wild Squirtle appeared in ''[[EP060|Beach Blank-Out Blastoise]]''.

A Squirtle appeared in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', where it was cloned from Ash's Squirtle and participated in the battle between the original Pokémon and the cloned Pokémon. It reappeared in ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]''.

Squirtle was the second one found. The Tiny Turtle Pokémon was stuck in a tree that was hanging over a cliff. [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] managed to catch the Squirtle before it could fall off the cliff.

Another Squirtle was seen with Professor Oak in ''[[AG071|A Six Pack Attack!]]'' along with a {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Charmander}}. Professor Oak showed off yet another Squirtle along with a Bulbasaur and Charmander during the [[Kanto Fair]].

===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
{{main|Ash's Squirtle}}
Ash's Squirtle debuts in ''[[ET08|You Gotta Have Friends]]''. Squirtle's capture is not shown in the manga, it is simply stated when it appears from its Poké Ball that "{{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} has been busy since the last comic".

[[Ash's Pikachu]] also meets an abandoned Squirtle in the chapter ''[[ET07|Pikachu's Excellent Adventure]]''. This Squirtle, along with other Pokémon, helps Pikachu find the [[Hidden Village]] after he is separated from Ash and friends.

{{main|Blasty}}
{{adv|Green}} stole a Squirtle from {{adv|Professor Oak}}, which she [[nickname]]d Blasty. He has since evolved into {{p|Wartortle}} and then {{p|Blastoise}} more quickly than the others, possibly due to her innate talent in evolving Pokémon, as acknowledged by the [[Masked Man]]. Blasty is never shown in his Squirtle form, (save the contents page of the [[Pokémon Adventures volume 3|third volume]] and a picture Professor Oak had of Green stealing him from his lab). His first appearance, as a Wartortle, is in ''[[PS015|Wartortle Wars]]'', returning as a Blastoise in ''[[PS030|Zap, Zap, Zapdos]]''.

A Squirtle appeared as a silhouette when {{adv|Green}} talks about {{adv|Mew}} in ''[[PS017|The Jynx Jinx]]''.

In ''[[PAXY04|They Have a Flare for a Li'l Kanga-Napping]]'', [[Professor Sycamore]] has a Squirtle with him.

==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Waterfall.png|250px|thumb|{{ga|Red|Pokémon Trainer}} commanding Squirtle to use {{m|Waterfall}} in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
{{sbw|Squirtle}} is seen on the stage Pokéfloats and is the first Pokéfloat to appear. Play begins on its head and arms until it slowly leaves off the bottom of the screen. After traveling through all the Pokéfloats, the screen will be empty for a few seconds before Squirtle pops up and the cycle begins again.

====Trophy information====
''Retreating into its shell and spitting water at its foes is Squirtle's trademark response to danger. It's one of the three Pokémon that Trainers can receive from Professor Oak in Pokémon Red and Blue. Squirtle evolves into Wartortle and then Blastoise, ramping up its water powers with each evolution.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
[[File:Squirtle SSBU.png|250px|thumb|Squirtle from ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'']]

{{sbw|Squirtle (SSBB)|Squirtle}} is a playable Pokémon used by the {{SSB|Pokémon Trainer}}. It can use {{m|Waterfall}} to recover from falls as well as {{m|Withdraw}}, in which case it retreats to its shell and shoots water from the back of it propelling him forwards. It also uses {{m|Water Gun}} to push enemies with a stream of water. Squirtle is a lightweight and uses various attacks using its shell and {{type|Water}} moves to combat its foes. It uses {{m|Hydro Pump}} in the Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash, {{DL|Final Smash|Triple Finish}}.

====Trophy Information====
[[File:Squirtle Detective Pikachu.jpg|thumb|upright|Squirtle in ''{{mov|Detective Pikachu}}'']]

''"A Tiny Turtle Pokémon. In times of danger, it pulls its arms and legs inside its shell to protect from enemy attacks. When it conceals its neck, it also shoots a powerful stream of water from its mouth. Its shell not only protects its body, but also reduces water friction when in the water. When leveled up, it evolves into Wartortle."''
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===
Squirtle returns as a trophy in both versions of the game.
====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''At the start of their Pokémon adventures, many aspiring trainers visit Professor Oak to choose one of three starter Pokémon. Squirtle's always a popular choice, what with it being so gosh-darn adorable. When it's in danger, though, it withdraws into its shell and spits a high-pressure burst of water—a bit less adorable.''

'''PAL''': ''At the start of their Pokémon adventures, many aspiring trainers visit Professor Oak to choose one of three starter Pokémon. Squirtle's always a popular choice, what with him being so flipping adorable. When it's in danger, though, it withdraws into its shell and spits a high-pressure burst of water, which isn't quite so adorable.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Squirtle appears once again as a playable Pokémon fighter used by the Pokémon Trainer.

===''{{mov|Detective Pikachu}}''===
Five Squirtle appeared in ''{{mov|Detective Pikachu}}''.

==Trivia==
[[File:Niue Dollar Pokemon.png|thumb|250px|right|$1 coins from {{wp|Niue}}]]
* {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Squirtle as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Squirtle on one side and the nation's coat of arms on the other.
* As a species, Squirtle has been trained most frequently of all the [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]] by major anime Trainers, with {{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, {{Gary}}, and {{an|Tierno}} each owning one.

===Origin===
Squirtle's design is based on both its final form and baby {{wp|turtle}}s.<ref name=Origin>[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/corporate/en/pikachu/ ''The Origin Story of Pikachu'']</ref> Much like Wartortle, its tail is a reference to Japanese legends of the ''{{wp|Cultural depictions of turtles#Japan|minogame}}'' (蓑亀), a turtle which lived for 10,000 years and grew a tail made of seaweed.

====Name origin====

Squirtle is a combination of ''squirt'' (''to spray'' and ''small child'') and ''turtle''.

Zenigame is a combination of 銭 ''zeni'' (money) and 亀 ''kame'' (tortoise/turtle). It literally means 銭亀 ''baby pond turtle''. According to {{game|Black and White|s}}'s television program ''PokéQuiz'', "'Zeni' is an old-fashioned word for money. Squirtle's shells look like old coins, so that's how they got their name!"

'''Bulbasaur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フシギダネ''' ''Fushigidane'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Ivysaur}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Venusaur}} starting at level 32.

Along with {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, Bulbasaur is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Kanto]] available at the beginning of [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]].

==Biology==
Bulbasaur is a small, quadruped Pokémon that has blue-green skin with darker patches. It has red eyes with white pupils, pointed, ear-like structures on top of its head, and a short, blunt snout with a wide mouth. A pair of small, pointed teeth are visible in the upper jaw when its mouth is open. Each of its thick legs ends with three sharp claws. On its back is a green plant bulb, which is grown from a seed planted there at birth. The bulb provides it with energy through photosynthesis as well as from the nutrient-rich seeds contained within.

As mentioned [[AG025|in the anime]], starter Pokémon are raised by {{tc|Pokémon Breeder|Breeder}}s to be distributed to new {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. Having been domesticated from birth, Bulbasaur is regarded as both a rare and well-behaved Pokémon. [[EP102|It is known]] to be extremely loyal, even after long-term abandonment. [[PK01|Bulbasaur has also shown]] itself to be an excellent caretaker, even having a special technique called the "Bulba-by." To perform this technique, Bulbasaur uses its vines to pick up a young Pokémon and soothingly rocks it in the air.

It is found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}} and forests throughout the Kanto region. However, due to Bulbasaur's status as starter Pokémon, it is hard to come by in the wild and generally found under the ownership of a Trainer. [[EP051|It has been observed]] that a Bulbasaur's bulb will flash blue when it is ready to evolve. If it does not want to evolve, it struggles to resist the transformation. Many Bulbasaur gather every year in a hidden garden in Kanto to evolve into Ivysaur in a ceremony led by a Venusaur.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Shauna Bulbasaur.png|thumb|left|250px|Bulbasaur in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Ash's Bulbasaur]]=====
{{Ash}}'s Bulbasaur debuted in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]'' as one of the Pokémon in the [[Hidden Village]], thus also marking the species' physical debut. Though initially wary of Ash, the two eventually warmed up to one another, and Bulbasaur challenged him to a {{pkmn|battle}}. Using {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash won the battle, and Bulbasaur was {{pkmn2|caught}}. Unlike {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}, which were caught in the two episodes following that of Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur remained in Ash's party for most of his journey through [[Johto]] until ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur... the Ambassador!]]'', when Ash sent him to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]] to work as an ambassador between otherwise argumentative groups of Pokémon.

=====[[May's Bulbasaur]]=====
Much later on, when Ash was traveling in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]], his companion {{an|May}} caught her own Bulbasaur after being separated from the group in ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria!]]''. It remained with her throughout the rest of her journey in Hoenn, helping her to win the {{ci|Purika}} {{pkmn|Contest}} and place Top 8 in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival|regional]] [[Grand Festival]]. When she traveled to [[Kanto]] to continue her journey with Ash in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', May, too, left her Bulbasaur at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] to learn from Ash's while she, Ash, [[Max]], and {{an|Brock}} traveled throughout the Kanto region. May retrieved it during her travels in [[Johto]], where it evolved all the way into a {{p|Venusaur}}.

=====[[Shauna's Bulbasaur]]=====
{{an|Shauna}}'s starter Pokémon is a Bulbasaur she received from [[Professor Sycamore]]. It first appeared in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]''. Shauna's Bulbasaur was revealed to have evolved into Ivysaur by ''[[XY090|Tag Team Battle Inspiration!]]''

=====Other=====
A Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', where it was cloned from Ash's Bulbasaur and participated in the battle between the original Pokémon and the cloned Pokémon. It reappeared in ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]''.

A Bulbasaur that used to belong to the [[Mayor of Trovitopolis]] appeared in ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]''. In his childhood, the mayor abandoned it and sent it into the sewers when it wouldn't evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}. Since then, it grew to a very large size. Aided by {{an|Misty}} and {{Tracey}}, Ash found the abandoned Bulbasaur while searching for his own, which had been taken by the giant Bulbasaur. After defeating the arrogant mayor and his personal SWAT team, Ash and his friends left the Bulbasaur with [[Nurse Joy]].

In ''[[SS014|Journey to the Starting Line!]]'', {{OBP|Gilbert|SS014}}, the son of the mayor of [[Pallet Town]], was supposed to start his journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] with one of the three Kanto [[starter Pokémon]], but they were scared off by [[Ash's Tauros]]. {{an|Professor Oak}}, {{Tracey}}, {{Delia}}, and Gilbert set out to find them. The Bulbasaur was the last one to be found and it was stuck in a tree that was surrounded by a group of {{p|Primeape}}. In the end, Bulbasaur was the one that Gilbert decided to start with.

====Minor appearances====
Bulbasaur was mentioned in the first episode of the anime, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', as one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] new Trainers in [[Pallet Town]] can choose from. Ash dreamed of owning one, and it was his second choice of a starter, after {{p|Squirtle}}. However, when he arrived at Oak's lab, it was too late, as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} who started the same day had already taken it.

Multiple Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]''.

A Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]'' as one of the Pokémon seen on [[Scissor Street]].

Two Trainers' Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]''.

A Trainer's Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', where it joined the rest of Alola in showering {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Necrozma}} with light so it could return to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|normal form}}.

Bulbasaur evolves into Ivysaur."''

==Trivia==
* In the Japanese {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}, international {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, and Japanese {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, [[Professor Oak]] classifies Bulbasaur as the "plant Pokémon" (Japanese: しょくぶつポケモン) when the player is about to choose it as their {{pkmn2|starter}}, using the term while referring to its {{t|Grass|type}}. In the English versions of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, he calls it the "grass Pokémon".
** This also occurs in the [[PO01|first episode]] of [[Pokémon Origins]].
[[File:Niue Dollar Pokemon.png|thumb|250px|right|$1 coins from {{wp|Niue}}]]
* {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Bulbasaur as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Bulbasaur on one side and the nation's coat of arms on the other.
* Bulbasaur's evolution family is the only starter Pokémon evolution family to have each member appear at least once in the Super Smash Bros. series.
* Bulbasaur and its evolutions share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Sunkern}}. They are all known as the Seed Pokémon.
* Bulbasaur's number in the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] are the same: 001.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[Global Trade System|GTS]], a Bulbasaur with an English name couldn't be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Bulbasaur is programmed to be able to learn {{m|Charm}} through {{pkmn|breeding}}, but no other Pokémon in the {{egg|Grass}} or {{egg2|Monster}}s can legitimately learn it to pass down as an [[Egg Move]] in those games. In [[Generation III]] and {{gen|IV}}, Bulbasaur can inherit the move from {{p|Shroomish}} by chain breeding; in Generation V on, Bulbasaur can inherit the move directly from {{p|Cottonee}}.
* Bulbasaur may be part of the [[List_of_references_to_Pokémon_in_popular_culture|inspiration for the naming]] of ''{{wp|Bulbasaurus}}'', a genus of dicynodonts.<ref>https://www.inverse.com/article/27179-bulbasaurus-dicynodont-pokemon-dinosaur</ref>

===Origin===
Bulbasaur is based on a {{wp|frog}}.<ref>[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/corporate/en/pikachu/ 好きなポケモンは？ Bulbasaur entry (archived - Japanese text)]</ref><ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/creator-profile-the-creators-of-pikachu/ Creator Profile: The Creators of Pikachu]</ref> According to [[Ken Sugimori]] and [[Atsuko Nishida]], the latter designed Bulbasaur working backward from {{p|Venusaur}}, meaning Bulbasaur was the last of its evolutionary family to have been designed and was also directly based on Venusaur.<ref>[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/corporate/en/pikachu/ The Origin Story of Pikachu]</ref>

The bulb on its back resembles a {{wp|lily}} or {{wp|onion}}.

====Name origin====
Bulbasaur is a combination of ''{{wp|bulb}}'' (a rounded underground storage organ present in some plants, notably those of the lily family) and σαῦρος ''saur'' (Ancient Greek for ''{{wp|lizard}}'').

Fushigidane literally means "''isn't it strange?''" and is also a pun on 不思議種 ''fushigidane'' (mysterious bulb).

'''Bulbasaur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フシギダネ''' ''Fushigidane'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Ivysaur}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Venusaur}} starting at level 32.

Along with {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, Bulbasaur is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Kanto]] available at the beginning of [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]].

==Biology==
Bulbasaur is a small, quadruped Pokémon that has blue-green skin with darker patches. It has red eyes with white pupils, pointed, ear-like structures on top of its head, and a short, blunt snout with a wide mouth. A pair of small, pointed teeth are visible in the upper jaw when its mouth is open. Each of its thick legs ends with three sharp claws. On its back is a green plant bulb, which is grown from a seed planted there at birth. The bulb provides it with energy through photosynthesis as well as from the nutrient-rich seeds contained within.

As mentioned [[AG025|in the anime]], starter Pokémon are raised by {{tc|Pokémon Breeder|Breeder}}s to be distributed to new {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. Having been domesticated from birth, Bulbasaur is regarded as both a rare and well-behaved Pokémon. [[EP102|It is known]] to be extremely loyal, even after long-term abandonment. [[PK01|Bulbasaur has also shown]] itself to be an excellent caretaker, even having a special technique called the "Bulba-by." To perform this technique, Bulbasaur uses its vines to pick up a young Pokémon and soothingly rocks it in the air.

It is found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}} and forests throughout the Kanto region. However, due to Bulbasaur's status as starter Pokémon, it is hard to come by in the wild and generally found under the ownership of a Trainer. [[EP051|It has been observed]] that a Bulbasaur's bulb will flash blue when it is ready to evolve. If it does not want to evolve, it struggles to resist the transformation. Many Bulbasaur gather every year in a hidden garden in Kanto to evolve into Ivysaur in a ceremony led by a Venusaur.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Shauna Bulbasaur.png|thumb|left|250px|Bulbasaur in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Ash's Bulbasaur]]=====
{{Ash}}'s Bulbasaur debuted in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]'' as one of the Pokémon in the [[Hidden Village]], thus also marking the species' physical debut. Though initially wary of Ash, the two eventually warmed up to one another, and Bulbasaur challenged him to a {{pkmn|battle}}. Using {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash won the battle, and Bulbasaur was {{pkmn2|caught}}. Unlike {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}, which were caught in the two episodes following that of Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur remained in Ash's party for most of his journey through [[Johto]] until ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur... the Ambassador!]]'', when Ash sent him to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]] to work as an ambassador between otherwise argumentative groups of Pokémon.

=====[[May's Bulbasaur]]=====
Much later on, when Ash was traveling in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]], his companion {{an|May}} caught her own Bulbasaur after being separated from the group in ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria!]]''. It remained with her throughout the rest of her journey in Hoenn, helping her to win the {{ci|Purika}} {{pkmn|Contest}} and place Top 8 in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival|regional]] [[Grand Festival]]. When she traveled to [[Kanto]] to continue her journey with Ash in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', May, too, left her Bulbasaur at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] to learn from Ash's while she, Ash, [[Max]], and {{an|Brock}} traveled throughout the Kanto region. May retrieved it during her travels in [[Johto]], where it evolved all the way into a {{p|Venusaur}}.

=====[[Shauna's Bulbasaur]]=====
{{an|Shauna}}'s starter Pokémon is a Bulbasaur she received from [[Professor Sycamore]]. It first appeared in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]''. Shauna's Bulbasaur was revealed to have evolved into Ivysaur by ''[[XY090|Tag Team Battle Inspiration!]]''

=====Other=====
A Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', where it was cloned from Ash's Bulbasaur and participated in the battle between the original Pokémon and the cloned Pokémon. It reappeared in ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]''.

A Bulbasaur that used to belong to the [[Mayor of Trovitopolis]] appeared in ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]''. In his childhood, the mayor abandoned it and sent it into the sewers when it wouldn't evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}. Since then, it grew to a very large size. Aided by {{an|Misty}} and {{Tracey}}, Ash found the abandoned Bulbasaur while searching for his own, which had been taken by the giant Bulbasaur. After defeating the arrogant mayor and his personal SWAT team, Ash and his friends left the Bulbasaur with [[Nurse Joy]].

In ''[[SS014|Journey to the Starting Line!]]'', {{OBP|Gilbert|SS014}}, the son of the mayor of [[Pallet Town]], was supposed to start his journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] with one of the three Kanto [[starter Pokémon]], but they were scared off by [[Ash's Tauros]]. {{an|Professor Oak}}, {{Tracey}}, {{Delia}}, and Gilbert set out to find them. The Bulbasaur was the last one to be found and it was stuck in a tree that was surrounded by a group of {{p|Primeape}}. In the end, Bulbasaur was the one that Gilbert decided to start with.

====Minor appearances====
Bulbasaur was mentioned in the first episode of the anime, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', as one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] new Trainers in [[Pallet Town]] can choose from. Ash dreamed of owning one, and it was his second choice of a starter, after {{p|Squirtle}}. However, when he arrived at Oak's lab, it was too late, as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} who started the same day had already taken it.

Multiple Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]''.

A Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]'' as one of the Pokémon seen on [[Scissor Street]].

A Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[EP057|The Breeding Center Secret]]''.

A Trainer's Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]'', during the closing ceremonies of the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]].

A starter Pokémon Bulbasaur appeared in a flashback in ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile]]''.

A Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]'', under the ownership of the [[Pokémon Trainers' School]].

A Bulbasaur appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''.

A Bulbasaur was one of the [[starter Pokémon]] at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]''.

A {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[AG167|What I Did for Love!]]''.

A Bulbasaur made a brief appearance in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', under the ownership of a Trainer competing in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]].

==Trivia==
* In the Japanese {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}, international {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, and Japanese {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, [[Professor Oak]] classifies Bulbasaur as the "plant Pokémon" (Japanese: しょくぶつポケモン) when the player is about to choose it as their {{pkmn2|starter}}, using the term while referring to its {{t|Grass|type}}. In the English versions of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, he calls it the "grass Pokémon".
** This also occurs in the [[PO01|first episode]] of [[Pokémon Origins]].
[[File:Niue Dollar Pokemon.png|thumb|250px|right|$1 coins from {{wp|Niue}}]]
* {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Bulbasaur as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Bulbasaur on one side and the nation's coat of arms on the other.
* Bulbasaur's evolution family is the only starter Pokémon evolution family to have each member appear at least once in the Super Smash Bros. series.
* Bulbasaur and its evolutions share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Sunkern}}. They are all known as the Seed Pokémon.
* Bulbasaur's number in the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] are the same: 001.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[Global Trade System|GTS]], a Bulbasaur with an English name couldn't be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Bulbasaur is programmed to be able to learn {{m|Charm}} through {{pkmn|breeding}}, but no other Pokémon in the {{egg|Grass}} or {{egg2|Monster}}s can legitimately learn it to pass down as an [[Egg Move]] in those games. In [[Generation III]] and {{gen|IV}}, Bulbasaur can inherit the move from {{p|Shroomish}} by chain breeding; in Generation V on, Bulbasaur can inherit the move directly from {{p|Cottonee}}.
* Bulbasaur may be part of the [[List_of_references_to_Pokémon_in_popular_culture|inspiration for the naming]] of ''{{wp|Bulbasaurus}}'', a genus of dicynodonts.<ref>https://www.inverse.com/article/27179-bulbasaurus-dicynodont-pokemon-dinosaur</ref>

===Origin===
Bulbasaur is based on a {{wp|frog}}.<ref>[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/corporate/en/pikachu/ 好きなポケモンは？ Bulbasaur entry (archived - Japanese text)]</ref><ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/creator-profile-the-creators-of-pikachu/ Creator Profile: The Creators of Pikachu]</ref> According to [[Ken Sugimori]] and [[Atsuko Nishida]], the latter designed Bulbasaur working backward from {{p|Venusaur}}, meaning Bulbasaur was the last of its evolutionary family to have been designed and was also directly based on Venusaur.<ref>[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/corporate/en/pikachu/ The Origin Story of Pikachu]</ref>

The bulb on its back resembles a {{wp|lily}} or {{wp|onion}}.

====Name origin====
Bulbasaur is a combination of ''{{wp|bulb}}'' (a rounded underground storage organ present in some plants, notably those of the lily family) and σαῦρος ''saur'' (Ancient Greek for ''{{wp|lizard}}'').

Fushigidane literally means "''isn't it strange?''" and is also a pun on 不思議種 ''fushigidane'' (mysterious bulb).

'''Lickitung''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ベロリンガ''' ''Beroringa'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

Starting in [[Generation IV]], it [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Lickilicky}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Rollout}}.

==Biology==
Lickitung is a bipedal Pokémon with a round body and a thick, powerful tail. It has soft, pink skin with curved yellow lines on its belly and a yellow ring marking on each knee. It has a thumb-like claw on each hand and a single large nail on each foot. There is a yellow spot on its palms and the soles of its feet. It has beady eyes and a long, prehensile tongue. The tongue is likely connected to its tail, which twitches when the tongue is pulled.

At over 6 feet 6 inches (2 meters), Lickitung's tongue is twice as long as its body. Sticky, smelly saliva coats its tongue, which causes a tingling sensation when touched and can cause rashes if not cleaned off. It is used for capturing prey, exploring its environment and cleaning. However, it is questionable if its saliva is clean in the first place as whatever it cleans has a lingering smell. Lickitung remembers things by their texture and taste, although it apparently dislikes sour things. The tongue is both dexterous and powerful enough to lift people, as seen in [[AG122|the anime.]] Lickitung can be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy plains and meadows.}}

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Lickitung was originally known as "Tonguetyd".
* Its Red/Blue and LeafGreen Pokédex data compares Lickitung's extensible tongue to that of a {{wp|chameleon}}, a real-world lizard.
* Lickitung was incorrectly referred to as a {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon in the {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} Prima game guide.
* Lickitung's name was misspelled "Likitung" in the Kanto [[Pokérap]].
* Lickitung was listed in the credits of the N64 game ''Paperboy'' under the heading Special Edition Thanks.

===Origin===
Lickitung may have been based on any number of lizards with extending tongues, particularly the {{wp|blue-tongued skink}} or maybe even {{wp|chameleon}}s. It also shares traits with {{wp|anteater}}s. Lickitung could also be an ''{{wp|Iguanodon}}'', as it shares its characteristic "thumbs" with it. In addition, Lickitung may be based on the {{wp|Akaname}}, a mythical {{wp|yōkai}} with a single claw on each foot and a gigantic tongue. Akaname are known to lick filth out of bathhouses, similar to Lickitung's habit of licking dirty things clean.

====Name origin====
Lickitung is a combination of ''lick'' and a corruption of ''tongue''.

Beroringa may be derived from べろ ''bero'' (tongue), ベロベロ ''berobero'' ({{wp|onomatopoeia}} for licking), and possibly ''ring'' (referring to the patterns on its body) or a corruption of the English word ''[http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lingua lingua]'' (which refers to a tongue or an organ resembling a tongue). According to {{game|Black and White|s}}'s television program ''PokéQuiz'', "{{tt|Berori|ベロリ}} is the sound of licking in Japanese!"

'''Torterra''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドダイトス''' ''Dodaitose'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Grotle}} starting at [[level]] 32. It is the final form of {{p|Turtwig}}.

==Biology==
Torterra is a bulky quadruped Pokémon resembling a tortoise, with a large shell covering its back. There is a single, oak-like tree and three triangular, stony extensions resembling mountain peaks on the top of the shell. There is a patch of brown, resembling soil, next to the tree. A white rim surrounds the shell, and forms a diamond-shaped continuation on the front. Torterra's body appears sectioned, with the upper half being green and the lower half brown. Its mouth is jagged and at the end of its snout is a dark brown beak, giving it the appearance of a snapping turtle. Its lower jaw is green and there are two large spikes protruding from its cheeks. Torterra's small, red eyes are encircled by a black ring. Its legs are thick and they have four toes each, which appear as if they are actually jagged stones. There are three toes on the front and one on the heel.

Torterra's large and clean shell supports the lives of many small Pokémon, which occasionally gather and {{wp|commensalism|build their nests upon the shell}}. Some are born and spend their entire life there. Torterra migrate in search of water, creating the illusion of "moving forests". However, it is typically immobile.

==Trivia==
* Torterra shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Groudon}}. They are both known as the Continent Pokémon.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Torterra.
* When walking to the right in [[Amity Square]], Torterra's sprite erroneously shows its left side.
* Torterra is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] final form of a [[starter Pokémon]], weighing 683.4 lbs. (310.0 kg).

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Turtwig, Grotle and Torterra}}
Torterra has aspects of a {{wp|Chelydridae|snapping turtle}} and an {{wp|Ankylosauria|ankylosaur}}, armored dinosaurs. Its large features and spikes may also be inspired by extinct {{wp|Meiolania}} and {{wp|Proganochelys}} turtles. In concept, it may be based on the {{wp|World Turtle}}s in various mythologies that carry worlds upon their backs, or perhaps the {{wp|Black Tortoise}} of Asian legend.

====Name origin====
Torterra is a combination of ''tortoise'' and ''terra'' (Latin for ''ground''). ''Terra'' may also refer to ''{{wp|terrapin}}s''. It also bears similarity to ''{{wp|tuatara}}'' (a reptile similar to a lizard) and ''{{wp|totara}}'' (a type of tree), both found in {{pmin|New Zealand}}.

Dodaitose may be a combination of 土 ''do'' (earth or ground), 大 ''dai'' (large), and ''tortoise''. It may also involve 土台 ''dodai'' ({{wp|Foundation (engineering)|foundation}}).

'''Aipom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エイパム''' ''Eipam'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Ambipom}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Double Hit}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Ash Aipom bananas.png|thumb|250px|left|Aipom getting a banana]]
Aipom is a monkey-like Pokémon with a three-fingered hand at the end of its tail. Its fur is purple, while the skin of its face, inner ears, belly, feet, and the tip of its tail are beige. Its face usually has a cheeky smile and round, blue eyes. With its round ears, Aipom's head is disproportionately large compared to its body. Atop its head is a {{wp|cowlick}} that is longer on females than males. Unlike its feet, Aipom's arms are simple, purple stubs.

Aipom uses its powerful tail freely and cleverly for many purposes. The tail is strong enough to anchor Aipom to a branch and suspend the rest of its body in the air, but also delicate enough to pick fruit and manipulate objects. Aipom has been known to wrap its tail around tree branches as it sleeps so it does not fall. Since Aipom uses its tail so much, its actual arms are not as dexterous and become clumsy over time. Aipom lives high in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|treetops}}, using its tail for balance as it swings from branch to branch. In [[Alola]], {{p|Bounsweet}} is its favorite food.

This Aipom appeared in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong!]]'', in which she stole [[Ash's hat]]. After eventually returning it, she started following Ash and {{ashfr}}. After making an unsuccessful attempt in [[AG181|the previous episode]], Ash {{pkmn2|caught}} Aipom during ''[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone!]]''. Her behavior is similar to that of [[Ash's Chikorita]]: attention-seeking, very naughty at times, and occasionally jealous. However, she developed a [[Friendship|close bond]] with Ash. In ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', Ash traded her to {{an|Dawn}} for {{AP|Buizel}} because Aipom loved competing in [[Pokémon Contest]]s while Buizel was more interested in [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}s.

==Trivia==
* {{an|Clemont}} uses a gadget based on Aipom's tail, called the ''Aipom arm''.

===Origin===
Aipom appears to be based on a generic {{wp|New World monkey}} and the exaggerated concept of their {{wp|prehensile tail}}. Aipom also shares its large smile with a {{wp|cymbal-banging monkey toy}}. It may vaguely reference the {{wp|Ahuizotl (creature)|ahuizotl}}, a creature of Aztec mythology with monkey hands and a fifth human hand on its tail.

====Name origin====
Aipom and Eipam may be a combination of ''{{wp|ape}}'' and ''palm'' (referring to the hand on its tail). It may also refer to a {{wp|pom-pom}}.

==In other languages==

'''Mr. Mime''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バリヤード''' ''Barrierd'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a pure {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Mime Jr.}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Mimic}}.

==Biology==
Mr. Mime is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Blue growths resembling clown hair extend from the sides of its pale pink head, and there is a magenta circle on each cheek. Its jaw is curved inward, resembling the mouth of a wooden dummy. It has a round, white body with a magenta spot in the middle, light pink arms and legs that connect to its body via magenta spheres, and small white coverings over its knees. Its white hands resemble gloves with magenta pads on the tips of its white fingers and its dark blue feet curl upward at the tips.

From birth, this Pokémon is an excellent pantomime. As it matures, it gains the ability to solidify air molecules by vibrating its fingertips. This ability allows it to create invisible objects with its gestures. It punishes those who interrupt its act or are not impressed by slapping them. Mr. Mime is usually very rare, but can be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|suburban areas.}} In the past, {{m|Substitute}} was its [[signature move]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Mimey SM anime.png|thumb|left|220px|Mr. Mime in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Mimey]]====
Mr. Mime made its main series debut in ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} came across it while looking for a Mr. Mime to replace another one that was supposed to perform in [[Stella]]'s circus. It was later taken in by Ash's mother {{Delia}} after it arrived at her house and she mistook it for Ash in a costume.

====Other====
Another Mr. Mime appeared in ''It's Mr. Mime Time'' as one of the Pokémon in [[Stella]]'s circus. However, it was lazy and stopped obeying her because she was too hard on it. It eventually listened to her once more when it saw how much she was willing to protect it from {{TRT}}.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[EP090|Stage Fight!]]'', where it was part of a showboat stage show along with other Pokémon.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[EP156|The Psychic Sidekicks!]]'', under the ownership of [[Toku]]. It was one of the local Pokémon stolen by {{TRT}} in the commission of one of their schemes.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[AG141|Hail to the Chef]]'', under the ownership of {{OBP|Rhonda|AG141}}, a girl who lives outside [[Saffron City]]. She was competing with her sister [[Rhoda]], who owned a {{p|Sneasel}}, for the ownership of her father's restaurant. Mr. Mime's cooking made the food taste horrible, but with help from {{an|Brock}}, its cooking improved.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[DP159|Short and To the Punch!]]'', under the ownership of [[Clayton]]. It was used during his battle against {{Ash}}, where it battled {{AP|Buizel}} twice. It beat it the first time but lost to it the second time due to Buizel's {{m|Ice Punch}}.

===Minor appearances===
Mr. Mime debuted in ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'' as one of the Pokémon seen at the [[Pokémon Theme Park]].

A Mr. Mime appeared in [[Jessie]]'s fantasy in ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby!]]''.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[DP140|Historical Mystery Tour!]]'', under the ownership of a {{tc|Clown}}. It was seen riding a unicycle.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[XY073|A Fashionable Battle!]]'', under the ownership of [[Valerie]].

Three {{pkmn|Trainer}}s' Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]''.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Crystal Mymee.png|thumb|200px|Mr. Mime in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
Mr. Mime was first seen under the control of [[Sabrina]] in ''[[PS028|Peace of Mime]]'', generating a {{m|Light Screen}} to seal off the whole of [[Saffron City]]. The same Mr. Mime was seen again during the [[Gym Leader]] faceoff in the [[Indigo Plateau]], using its miming powers to trap [[Bugsy]] within walls created from solidified air, and defeating his {{p|Heracross}} with a {{m|Psybeam}}.

{{adv|Emerald}} has a Mr. Mime that first showed up in ''[[PS326|Lemme at 'Em, Lapras!]]'', as a rental Pokémon. He later joined his team after being calmed.

{{adv|Crystal}} was revealed to have added a Mr. Mime, nicknamed Mymee, to her team prior to ''[[PS330|The Final Battle III]]'' in order to imitate Sabrina's tactics.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[PS442|Out-Odding Oddish]]'', under the ownership of a [[Pokéathlon]] participant.

[[Valerie]] owns a Mr. Mime in ''[[PAXY22|Quilladin Stands]]'', where it was used to help stop the [[Ultimate weapon]] from activating. [[Bryony]]'s familiarity with the tactic used by Valerie's Mr. Mime, by means of referring to pages from an encyclopedia, is a direct reference to the two occasions the tactic was previously used in [[Pokémon Adventures]].

==Trivia==
* The Mr. Mime obtained through an in-game trade in {{game|Red and Blue|s}} was nicknamed Marcel. This may have been a homage to the late {{wp|Marcel Marceau}}. However, this was not kept in {{game|Yellow}} or {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}; the same Mr. Mime is nicknamed Miles in Yellow, and Mimien in FireRed and LeafGreen.
* In all official artwork and in-game sprites prior to the release of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Mr. Mime only had four fingers. However, Mr. Mime has always had five fingers in the anime.

===Origin===
Mr. Mime appears to be based on a combination of a {{wp|clown}}, a {{wp|mime}}, and the {{wp|pantomime}} of pretending to be trapped in invisible boxes. Its feet also appear to be reminiscent of the various hook-toed shoes worn by {{wp|jesters}}. Its jerky animations and jaw suggest that it may also be a {{wp|tsukumogami}} of a jointed puppet, dummy, or doll.

====Name origin====
Mr. Mime is ''{{wp|mime}}'' with an English male honorific. This gendered name was assigned before the [[gender]] mechanic was introduced in the games and is not reflected by the species' gender ratio.

Barrierd may be a combination of ''barrier'' (referring to the mime trait of 'being trapped' behind invisible walls) and ''weird'' or ''barricade''.

'''Cubone''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カラカラ''' ''Karakara'') is a {{type|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Marowak}} starting at [[level]] 28.

In [[Alola]], Cubone will evolve into [[Regional variant|Alolan]] Marowak when leveled up at [[Time|night]] starting at level 28.

==Biology==
Cubone is a small, bipedal Pokémon with a light brown hide that covers most of its body, except for its cream-colored belly. Two small claws, one on each hand, serve as its thumbs, and one large nail on each foot make up its toes. It has two small spikes on its back and a short tail. On its head, Cubone wears the skull of its dead mother as a helmet. Because of this, much of its actual face has never been seen, except for its triangular, black eyes and a small area surrounding them. The skull has two rounded horns on the top of its head and a tooth-like point on the lower sides. Under the skull, Cubone has a brown snout. The small Cubone survives only through the immense skill it possesses in wielding the bone it carries as a weapon. The bone allows it to learn {{m|Bone Club}} and {{m|Bonemerang}}, two moves [[Signature move|exclusive]] to Cubone and its evolution {{p|Marowak}}. It and its evolution are also the only Pokémon capable of using the [[Thick Club]] item.

It is called the Lonely Pokémon because of its tendency to keep to itself and avoid social situations, due to the trauma caused by the death of its mother. Cubone will often weep at night in mourning of its mother. When Cubone cries, the skull that it wears on its head vibrates and emits "a plaintive and mournful sound." On the night of a full moon, the cries are said to be especially terrible. Cubone seems to recognize its mother in the moon, and so it howls with a particular sadness. Its cries attract {{p|Mandibuzz}}, a natural predator. Cubone lives in rocky areas, usually on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains}} or in caves. It also once inhabited the Pokémon Tower in [[Lavender Town]] where deceased Pokémon were buried and mourned.

==Trivia==

[[File:Bandai Cubone card.jpg|thumb|200px|Cubone's face partially revealed]]
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Cubone was originally known as "Orphon," a corruption of the word "orphan," based on its abandonment at birth.
* Cubone is [[Midori Harada]]'s favorite Pokémon.
* Cubone is one of the Pokémon that appears in the [[Pokémon 151]] clothing line.
* Cubone is the only Pokémon that can [[Evolution|evolve]] into a dual-[[type]] Pokémon that doesn't share any types with its evolution.
* A [[Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards|Japanese trading card]], which features Cubone using the move {{m|Growl}}, partially reveals Cubone's face.
* While [[Regional variant|Alolan]] Marowak shares the [[Ability]] {{a|Rock Head}} with Cubone, Cubone is unable to retain this Ability after evolving in the [[Alola]] [[region]]. This is because Cubone's Rock Head is its first Ability, while Alolan Marowak's Rock Head is its Hidden Ability. It shares this trait with {{p|Tyrogue}} and {{p|Hitmontop}}'s Ability {{a|Steadfast}}.

===Origin===
Cubone is reptilian in nature and seems to be loosely based on bipedal {{wp|dinosaur}}s. It also could be based on primitive cultures that wore bones for decoration and used them for weapons. The use of its bone {{m|Bonemerang|as a boomerang and as a weapon at the same time}} seems to be a reference to the {{wp|boomerang}}'s original use for hunting in {{wp|Indigenous Australians}} cultures.

====Name origin====
Cubone may be a combination of ''cute'' and ''bone'', ''cub'' and ''bone'', or ''{{wp|Billiard ball|cue ball}}'' (a reference to its pale white head or that its bone resembles a billiards or snooker cue) and ''bone''. It could also be a combination of the Latin word ''cubo'' (recluse) and ''bone''; this can refer to its lonely nature.

Karakara may be taken to mean からから (clattering). It is worth noting that ''karakara'' denotes lighter clattering than がらがら ''{{p|Marowak|garagara}}''.

'''Mr. Mime''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バリヤード''' ''Barrierd'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a pure {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Mime Jr.}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Mimic}}.

==Biology==
Mr. Mime is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Blue growths resembling clown hair extend from the sides of its pale pink head, and there is a magenta circle on each cheek. Its jaw is curved inward, resembling the mouth of a wooden dummy. It has a round, white body with a magenta spot in the middle, light pink arms and legs that connect to its body via magenta spheres, and small white coverings over its knees. Its white hands resemble gloves with magenta pads on the tips of its white fingers and its dark blue feet curl upward at the tips.

From birth, this Pokémon is an excellent pantomime. As it matures, it gains the ability to solidify air molecules by vibrating its fingertips. This ability allows it to create invisible objects with its gestures. It punishes those who interrupt its act or are not impressed by slapping them. Mr. Mime is usually very rare, but can be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|suburban areas.}} In the past, {{m|Substitute}} was its [[signature move]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Mimey SM anime.png|thumb|left|220px|Mr. Mime in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Mimey]]====
Mr. Mime made its main series debut in ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} came across it while looking for a Mr. Mime to replace another one that was supposed to perform in [[Stella]]'s circus. It was later taken in by Ash's mother {{Delia}} after it arrived at her house and she mistook it for Ash in a costume.

====Other====
Another Mr. Mime appeared in ''It's Mr. Mime Time'' as one of the Pokémon in [[Stella]]'s circus. However, it was lazy and stopped obeying her because she was too hard on it. It eventually listened to her once more when it saw how much she was willing to protect it from {{TRT}}.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[EP090|Stage Fight!]]'', where it was part of a showboat stage show along with other Pokémon.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[EP156|The Psychic Sidekicks!]]'', under the ownership of [[Toku]]. It was one of the local Pokémon stolen by {{TRT}} in the commission of one of their schemes.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[AG141|Hail to the Chef]]'', under the ownership of {{OBP|Rhonda|AG141}}, a girl who lives outside [[Saffron City]]. She was competing with her sister [[Rhoda]], who owned a {{p|Sneasel}}, for the ownership of her father's restaurant. Mr. Mime's cooking made the food taste horrible, but with help from {{an|Brock}}, its cooking improved.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[DP159|Short and To the Punch!]]'', under the ownership of [[Clayton]]. It was used during his battle against {{Ash}}, where it battled {{AP|Buizel}} twice. It beat it the first time but lost to it the second time due to Buizel's {{m|Ice Punch}}.

===Minor appearances===
Mr. Mime debuted in ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'' as one of the Pokémon seen at the [[Pokémon Theme Park]].

A Mr. Mime appeared in [[Jessie]]'s fantasy in ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby!]]''.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[DP140|Historical Mystery Tour!]]'', under the ownership of a {{tc|Clown}}. It was seen riding a unicycle.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[XY073|A Fashionable Battle!]]'', under the ownership of [[Valerie]].

Three {{pkmn|Trainer}}s' Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]''.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Crystal Mymee.png|thumb|200px|Mr. Mime in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
Mr. Mime was first seen under the control of [[Sabrina]] in ''[[PS028|Peace of Mime]]'', generating a {{m|Light Screen}} to seal off the whole of [[Saffron City]]. The same Mr. Mime was seen again during the [[Gym Leader]] faceoff in the [[Indigo Plateau]], using its miming powers to trap [[Bugsy]] within walls created from solidified air, and defeating his {{p|Heracross}} with a {{m|Psybeam}}.

{{adv|Emerald}} has a Mr. Mime that first showed up in ''[[PS326|Lemme at 'Em, Lapras!]]'', as a rental Pokémon. He later joined his team after being calmed.

{{adv|Crystal}} was revealed to have added a Mr. Mime, nicknamed Mymee, to her team prior to ''[[PS330|The Final Battle III]]'' in order to imitate Sabrina's tactics.

A Mr. Mime appeared in ''[[PS442|Out-Odding Oddish]]'', under the ownership of a [[Pokéathlon]] participant.

[[Valerie]] owns a Mr. Mime in ''[[PAXY22|Quilladin Stands]]'', where it was used to help stop the [[Ultimate weapon]] from activating. [[Bryony]]'s familiarity with the tactic used by Valerie's Mr. Mime, by means of referring to pages from an encyclopedia, is a direct reference to the two occasions the tactic was previously used in [[Pokémon Adventures]].

==Trivia==
* The Mr. Mime obtained through an in-game trade in {{game|Red and Blue|s}} was nicknamed Marcel. This may have been a homage to the late {{wp|Marcel Marceau}}. However, this was not kept in {{game|Yellow}} or {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}; the same Mr. Mime is nicknamed Miles in Yellow, and Mimien in FireRed and LeafGreen.
* In all official artwork and in-game sprites prior to the release of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Mr. Mime only had four fingers. However, Mr. Mime has always had five fingers in the anime.

===Origin===
Mr. Mime appears to be based on a combination of a {{wp|clown}}, a {{wp|mime}}, and the {{wp|pantomime}} of pretending to be trapped in invisible boxes. Its feet also appear to be reminiscent of the various hook-toed shoes worn by {{wp|jesters}}. Its jerky animations and jaw suggest that it may also be a {{wp|tsukumogami}} of a jointed puppet, dummy, or doll.

====Name origin====
Mr. Mime is ''{{wp|mime}}'' with an English male honorific. This gendered name was assigned before the [[gender]] mechanic was introduced in the games and is not reflected by the species' gender ratio.

Barrierd may be a combination of ''barrier'' (referring to the mime trait of 'being trapped' behind invisible walls) and ''weird'' or ''barricade''.

==In other languages==
{{Other languages|type=psychic|type2=fairy
|ja=バリヤード ''Barrierd''|jameaning=From ''barrier'' and ''weird''
|fr=M. Mime|frmeaning=Pronounced ''Monsieur Mime''. M. is the official abbreviation of ''{{tt|Monsieur|Mister}}''.

'''Snorlax''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カビゴン''' ''Kabigon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Munchlax}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]].

In the [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games and their remakes, wild Snorlax can be found sleeping in inconvenient locations throughout [[Kanto]]. In order to catch one, a Trainer must first awaken it with music from either a [[Poké Flute]] or [[Pokégear]] set to the Poké Flute channel. A sleeping Snorlax makes a return in [[Pokémon X and Y]], in which it is blocking the player's way on {{rt|7|Kalos}}.

==Biology==
Snorlax is a huge, bipedal, dark blue-green Pokémon with a cream-colored face, belly, and feet. Its body is composed of mostly its belly, as its limbs are comparatively small. Its head is large with small, pointed ears and two pointed teeth protruding from its lower jaw. It has round feet, which both have three claws and a circular brown paw pad, and short arms with five claws on each hand. Snorlax's bulk makes it the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Normal}}.

Snorlax is often found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains and forests}}. It wakes up only to eat, requiring 900lbs (400kg) of food per day before returning to its slumber. It is not a picky eater, as its strong stomach allows it to eat even moldy food without feeling any ill effects. It can even handle thorny plants or {{p|Muk}}'s poison. It can also eat while it is resting. Snorlax is docile enough to let children and small Pokémon bounce on its large stomach.

Snorlax can show awesome power when prompted. It is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using the exclusive [[Z-Move]] {{m|Pulverizing Pancake}}.

==Other appearances==
[[File:Snorlax SSBB.png|thumb|200px|Snorlax in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]

===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Snorlax will ascend into the air before descending over a large area of the screen with a {{m|Body Slam}} that sends any opponent underneath flying.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Snorlax does the same maneuver as it did in the previous game, but covers a smaller area.

Snorlax is also a [[Poké Floats|Poké Float]]. It is lying down asleep and so fighting occurs on its head and belly.
====Melee trophy information====
''Snorlax love to sleep and love to eat: these portly Pokémon get grumpy if they don't get 888 pounds of food per day. After snacking out, they always nap. They have cast-iron stomachs and can eat moldy and even rotten food with no digestion problems. They are the heaviest Pokémon on record, weighing in at over 1,000 pounds.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Snorlax once again performs the same maneuver as the previous games.

====Brawl trophy information====

''"A Sleeping Pokémon. It's the ultimate loafer. Sometimes children like to play on top its big belly. Once in a slumber, not even the hardest rain or the fiercest wind will wake it. Snorlax recovers health and restores its physical state by sleeping, and it proves daunting with its damaging {{m|Snore}} attack. Snorlax is the king of Sleeping Pokémon."''

===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===
[[File:Snorlax SSB4.png|thumb|240px|Snorlax in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS.]]
Snorlax reappears as a Poké Ball summon in these games, behaving the same way as before.
====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''This sleepy, Normal-type Pokémon is huge! It eats more than 900 lb. of food every day. Most of the time not spent eating is spent sleeping. That big, round body comes in handy when it's brought onto a Smash Bros. battlefield—the Body Slam attack will send anyone who gets hit flying into the air!''

'''PAL''': ''Snorlax is often referred to as the Sleeping Pokémon, and there's a good reason for that! This giant loafer spends almost all its time snoozing, getting up for just long enough each day to scoff up a tidy 400kg of food. In this game, it soars into the air and uses its Body Slam attack, smacking into fighters like a giant wrecking ball.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Snorlax reappears as a Poké Ball summon, retaining its behavior from past games. It also appears as a {{sbw|Spirits (characters)|Spirit}}. In the Spirit Battle, Snorlax, who is depicted as a giant gray King K. Rool, is immobile but has 500 HP and slowly regains HP. The player fails if they cannot KO Snorlax before the time runs out.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] (and later 3D games), Snorlax open their eyes when they faint.
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], Snorlax stands up and dances to the music when the [[Poké Flute]] is used.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, if the player interacts with a Snorlax that is {{pkmn2|walking}} with them while at [[Mt. Silver]], the message "SNORLAX is feeling very eager" will appear. This is due to {{ga|Red}}, who is also at Mt. Silver, owning a Snorlax as well. While the player is on Mt. Silver, unique messages will also appear if the player interacts with a walking {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Charizard}}.
* Snorlax has the highest base stat total of all Pokémon that can hatch from an {{pkmn|Egg}}.
* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Snorlax is programmed to be able to learn {{m|Charm}} through {{pkmn|breeding}}, but no other Pokémon in the {{egg2|Monster}} can legitimately learn it to pass down as an [[Egg Move]] in those games. In [[Generation III]] on, Snorlax can inherit the move from {{p|Bulbasaur}} by chain breeding.

===Origin===
Snorlax may be loosely based on {{wp|hibernation|hibernating}} {{wp|bear}}s, {{wp|giant panda}}s, or {{wp|teddy bear}}s. It may also be based on the {{wp|cave bear}}. It may also be based on a food coma, as it eats large quantities of food, then takes a nap (symptoms of a food coma). Snorlax also shares traits with {{wp|sloth}}s, who are often portrayed as lazy and sleepy creatures.

====Name origin====
Snorlax is a combination of ''snore'' and ''lax'' or ''relax''.

Kabigon may come from an alternate reading of sleep, 寐 ''bi'', and a corruption of 鼾酔 ''kansui'' (snoring) or 憩う ''ikou'' (rest). It may also incorporate 黴 ''kabi'' (mold), noting the fact that Snorlax will eat anything, even moldy food. Kabigon is also based on the nickname of [[Game Freak]] programmer [[Kōji Nishino]], which is the reason his game appearance uses Snorlax as his highest-leveled Pokémon in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.

'''Cubone''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カラカラ''' ''Karakara'') is a {{type|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Marowak}} starting at [[level]] 28.

In [[Alola]], Cubone will evolve into [[Regional variant|Alolan]] Marowak when leveled up at [[Time|night]] starting at level 28.

==Biology==
Cubone is a small, bipedal Pokémon with a light brown hide that covers most of its body, except for its cream-colored belly. Two small claws, one on each hand, serve as its thumbs, and one large nail on each foot make up its toes. It has two small spikes on its back and a short tail. On its head, Cubone wears the skull of its dead mother as a helmet. Because of this, much of its actual face has never been seen, except for its triangular, black eyes and a small area surrounding them. The skull has two rounded horns on the top of its head and a tooth-like point on the lower sides. Under the skull, Cubone has a brown snout. The small Cubone survives only through the immense skill it possesses in wielding the bone it carries as a weapon. The bone allows it to learn {{m|Bone Club}} and {{m|Bonemerang}}, two moves [[Signature move|exclusive]] to Cubone and its evolution {{p|Marowak}}. It and its evolution are also the only Pokémon capable of using the [[Thick Club]] item.

It is called the Lonely Pokémon because of its tendency to keep to itself and avoid social situations, due to the trauma caused by the death of its mother. Cubone will often weep at night in mourning of its mother. When Cubone cries, the skull that it wears on its head vibrates and emits "a plaintive and mournful sound." On the night of a full moon, the cries are said to be especially terrible. Cubone seems to recognize its mother in the moon, and so it howls with a particular sadness. Its cries attract {{p|Mandibuzz}}, a natural predator. Cubone lives in rocky areas, usually on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains}} or in caves. It also once inhabited the Pokémon Tower in [[Lavender Town]] where deceased Pokémon were buried and mourned.

==Trivia==

[[File:Bandai Cubone card.jpg|thumb|200px|Cubone's face partially revealed]]
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Cubone was originally known as "Orphon," a corruption of the word "orphan," based on its abandonment at birth.
* Cubone is [[Midori Harada]]'s favorite Pokémon.
* Cubone is one of the Pokémon that appears in the [[Pokémon 151]] clothing line.
* Cubone is the only Pokémon that can [[Evolution|evolve]] into a dual-[[type]] Pokémon that doesn't share any types with its evolution.
* A [[Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards|Japanese trading card]], which features Cubone using the move {{m|Growl}}, partially reveals Cubone's face.
* While [[Regional variant|Alolan]] Marowak shares the [[Ability]] {{a|Rock Head}} with Cubone, Cubone is unable to retain this Ability after evolving in the [[Alola]] [[region]]. This is because Cubone's Rock Head is its first Ability, while Alolan Marowak's Rock Head is its Hidden Ability. It shares this trait with {{p|Tyrogue}} and {{p|Hitmontop}}'s Ability {{a|Steadfast}}.

===Origin===
Cubone is reptilian in nature and seems to be loosely based on bipedal {{wp|dinosaur}}s. It also could be based on primitive cultures that wore bones for decoration and used them for weapons. The use of its bone {{m|Bonemerang|as a boomerang and as a weapon at the same time}} seems to be a reference to the {{wp|boomerang}}'s original use for hunting in {{wp|Indigenous Australians}} cultures.

====Name origin====
Cubone may be a combination of ''cute'' and ''bone'', ''cub'' and ''bone'', or ''{{wp|Billiard ball|cue ball}}'' (a reference to its pale white head or that its bone resembles a billiards or snooker cue) and ''bone''. It could also be a combination of the Latin word ''cubo'' (recluse) and ''bone''; this can refer to its lonely nature.

Karakara may be taken to mean からから (clattering). It is worth noting that ''karakara'' denotes lighter clattering than がらがら ''{{p|Marowak|garagara}}''.

'''Snorlax''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カビゴン''' ''Kabigon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Munchlax}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]].

In the [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games and their remakes, wild Snorlax can be found sleeping in inconvenient locations throughout [[Kanto]]. In order to catch one, a Trainer must first awaken it with music from either a [[Poké Flute]] or [[Pokégear]] set to the Poké Flute channel. A sleeping Snorlax makes a return in [[Pokémon X and Y]], in which it is blocking the player's way on {{rt|7|Kalos}}.

Snorlax is a huge, bipedal, dark blue-green Pokémon with a cream-colored face, belly, and feet. Its body is composed of mostly its belly, as its limbs are comparatively small. Its head is large with small, pointed ears and two pointed teeth protruding from its lower jaw. It has round feet, which both have three claws and a circular brown paw pad, and short arms with five claws on each hand. Snorlax's bulk makes it the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Normal}}.

Snorlax is often found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains and forests}}. It wakes up only to eat, requiring 900lbs (400kg) of food per day before returning to its slumber. It is not a picky eater, as its strong stomach allows it to eat even moldy food without feeling any ill effects. It can even handle thorny plants or {{p|Muk}}'s poison. It can also eat while it is resting. Snorlax is docile enough to let children and small Pokémon bounce on its large stomach.

Snorlax can show awesome power when prompted. It is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using the exclusive [[Z-Move]] {{m|Pulverizing Pancake}}.

==Other appearances==
[[File:Snorlax SSBB.png|thumb|200px|Snorlax in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]

===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Snorlax will ascend into the air before descending over a large area of the screen with a {{m|Body Slam}} that sends any opponent underneath flying.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Snorlax does the same maneuver as it did in the previous game, but covers a smaller area.

Snorlax is also a [[Poké Floats|Poké Float]]. It is lying down asleep and so fighting occurs on its head and belly.
====Melee trophy information====
''Snorlax love to sleep and love to eat: these portly Pokémon get grumpy if they don't get 888 pounds of food per day. After snacking out, they always nap. They have cast-iron stomachs and can eat moldy and even rotten food with no digestion problems. They are the heaviest Pokémon on record, weighing in at over 1,000 pounds.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Snorlax once again performs the same maneuver as the previous games.

====Brawl trophy information====

''"A Sleeping Pokémon. It's the ultimate loafer. Sometimes children like to play on top its big belly. Once in a slumber, not even the hardest rain or the fiercest wind will wake it. Snorlax recovers health and restores its physical state by sleeping, and it proves daunting with its damaging {{m|Snore}} attack. Snorlax is the king of Sleeping Pokémon."''

===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===
[[File:Snorlax SSB4.png|thumb|240px|Snorlax in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS.]]
Snorlax reappears as a Poké Ball summon in these games, behaving the same way as before.
====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''This sleepy, Normal-type Pokémon is huge! It eats more than 900 lb. of food every day. Most of the time not spent eating is spent sleeping. That big, round body comes in handy when it's brought onto a Smash Bros. battlefield—the Body Slam attack will send anyone who gets hit flying into the air!''

'''PAL''': ''Snorlax is often referred to as the Sleeping Pokémon, and there's a good reason for that! This giant loafer spends almost all its time snoozing, getting up for just long enough each day to scoff up a tidy 400kg of food. In this game, it soars into the air and uses its Body Slam attack, smacking into fighters like a giant wrecking ball.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Snorlax reappears as a Poké Ball summon, retaining its behavior from past games. It also appears as a {{sbw|Spirits (characters)|Spirit}}. In the Spirit Battle, Snorlax, who is depicted as a giant gray King K. Rool, is immobile but has 500 HP and slowly regains HP. The player fails if they cannot KO Snorlax before the time runs out.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] (and later 3D games), Snorlax open their eyes when they faint.
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], Snorlax stands up and dances to the music when the [[Poké Flute]] is used.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, if the player interacts with a Snorlax that is {{pkmn2|walking}} with them while at [[Mt. Silver]], the message "SNORLAX is feeling very eager" will appear. This is due to {{ga|Red}}, who is also at Mt. Silver, owning a Snorlax as well. While the player is on Mt. Silver, unique messages will also appear if the player interacts with a walking {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Charizard}}.
* Snorlax has the highest base stat total of all Pokémon that can hatch from an {{pkmn|Egg}}.
* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Snorlax is programmed to be able to learn {{m|Charm}} through {{pkmn|breeding}}, but no other Pokémon in the {{egg2|Monster}} can legitimately learn it to pass down as an [[Egg Move]] in those games. In [[Generation III]] on, Snorlax can inherit the move from {{p|Bulbasaur}} by chain breeding.

===Origin===
Snorlax may be loosely based on {{wp|hibernation|hibernating}} {{wp|bear}}s, {{wp|giant panda}}s, or {{wp|teddy bear}}s. It may also be based on the {{wp|cave bear}}. It may also be based on a food coma, as it eats large quantities of food, then takes a nap (symptoms of a food coma). Snorlax also shares traits with {{wp|sloth}}s, who are often portrayed as lazy and sleepy creatures.

====Name origin====
Snorlax is a combination of ''snore'' and ''lax'' or ''relax''.

Kabigon may come from an alternate reading of sleep, 寐 ''bi'', and a corruption of 鼾酔 ''kansui'' (snoring) or 憩う ''ikou'' (rest). It may also incorporate 黴 ''kabi'' (mold), noting the fact that Snorlax will eat anything, even moldy food. Kabigon is also based on the nickname of [[Game Freak]] programmer [[Kōji Nishino]], which is the reason his game appearance uses Snorlax as his highest-leveled Pokémon in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.

LHakaLH: /* Relic Stone */

==Pyrite Cave==
Now here we're gonna ignore every Trainer we possibly can, except ones with Shadow Pokémon and unavoidable ones. Head right, down the stairs, to the far right, and up. Your first battle is as follows.

{{trainerheader|cave}}
{{trainerentry|Colo Rider m.png{{!}}90px|Rider|Twan|330|3|shadow=1|307|Meditite|B|33|TwistedSpoon|371|Bagon|M|33|None|322|Numel|F|32|None|game=colo|36=リード|37=Reed|38=Poké Ball}}
{{trainerfooter|cave|Colo}}

Espeon's Confusion should OHKO Bagon, Numel should go down in a pinch, and Meditite has a very high capture rate. After the battle, head up the hall and down the stairs. You're on a bridge. There's a female who wants to battle you here.

{{trainerheader|cave}}
{{trainerentry|Colo Rider f.png{{!}}96px|Rider|Sosh|340|3|shadow=1|206|Dunsparce|B|33|None|179|Mareep|F|34|None|331|Cacnea|F|34|None|game=colo|36=ナチュラ|37=Natura|38=Poké Ball}}
{{trainerfooter|cave|Colo}}

Dunsparce is also very easy to catch, Mareep and Cacnea shouldn't be too much trouble for you. After the battle, keep heading left. Under the stairs are a healing pad and a computer. Here you can save+heal. Now go up the stairs. Head upwards, avoiding the first Trainer, and heads towards the stairs. Another Trainer is in the way, but this one has a Shadow Pokémon.

{{trainerheader|cave}}
{{trainerentry|Colo Hunter m.png{{!}}96px|Hunter|Zalo|512|4|shadow=1|333|Swablu|B|33|None|270|Lotad|M|31|None|374|Beldum||32|None|271|Lombre|F|32|None|game=colo|36=トレモ|37=Toremo|38=Poké Ball}}
{{trainerfooter|cave|Colo}}

Swablu should be extremely easy to catch, and all of his other Pokémon go down easy. but still get it into the yellow so as not to waste a Great Ball. After the battle, head downstairs, unless you think you should save+heal, because next up is Miror B. Beware of the other Trainer here, though. Once downstairs, it's just a simple hallway until you reach Miror B.'s room.

==Cipher Admin: Miror B.==
Awesome music starts when you enter his room. Walk up to Miror B., watch him dance. He notices you, and tells them to stop the music (awww). After a short speech, he challenges you. His music has already started up again. Yeah!

{{Party/Footer}}

You better have a lot of Great Balls, because Sudowoodo is probably the hardest Pokémon to catch so far. The four Ludicolo should go down two turns each, barely denting your health. They can really stall the battle though, so take them out quick.

Upon defeat, Miror B. and his four Ludicolo run off. Open the box that appears to get the TM Snatch. At the top-right of the new room is a Macho Brace. Right below the Macho Brace is the Ein File P. In the room is also Plusle. Silva and Duking arrive just when you find Plusle. You're automatically brought back to Duking's house, bringing Plusle with you.

At his house, Duking will give you Plusle, a weak and useless Pokémon that better stay in your computer.

'''Plusle joined your party!''' 
[[Image:Box Colo 311 s.png]] Level 13 Plusle

Duking will now be able to be in touch with you now that he has your P☆DA number. Leave the building. When you try to leave the city, the lady in front of the fortune-telling house speaks to you. Her name is Fateen. She tells you that something is going on up north. Rui notices this is where her grandfather lives, in Agate Village. Now you can exit the city and head north to Agate Village.

==Agate Village==
There's a Pokémon Center here where you can heal+save, and move around your party. From the Pokémon Center, go left, up, and down the bridge and towards the cave. The man outside won't let you in, so head back to the entrance of Agate Village, and to the third "floor" of the village. You will arrive at Rui's grandparents' house. You will engage in conversation with them. Rui begins to tell them about Shadow Pokémon, when the man who wouldn't let you in the cave appears. He and the grandfather leave because people pushed the man aside and rushed into the cave. Follow the two all the way down to the now-open cave.

==Items==

-'''Exp. Share''': Go to third level of the village, and walk around the backside of Rui's grandparents house. Then head downwards, and you should see the item.

==Cave Path==
A female Cipher Peon greets you and a battle begins immediately.

{{trainerheader|cave}}
{{trainerentry|Colo Cipher Peon f.png{{!}}96px|Cipher Peon|Doven|1,360|2|363|Spheal|F|33||318|Carvanha|M|34||game=colo|36=ハミル|37=Hamill}}
{{trainerfooter|cave|Colo}}

Way too easy, especially after recently fighting Miror B. Next up is a male Cipher Peon.

{{trainerheader|cave}}
{{trainerentry|Colo Cipher Peon m.png{{!}}100px|Cipher Peon|Silton|1,360|2|285|Shroomish|M|34||331|Cacnea|M|34||game=colo|36=ダイン|37=Dine}}
{{trainerfooter|cave|Colo}}

You'll push that pushover over easily. Right before you leave the cave a female Peon appears from the sky. She thinks she scared you.

{{trainerheader|cave}}
{{trainerentry|Colo Cipher Peon f.png{{!}}96px|Cipher Peon|Kass|1,400|3|343|Baltoy||35||280|Ralts|M|35||281|Kirlia|F|35||game=colo|36=ファミ|37=Fami}}
{{trainerfooter|cave|Colo}}

Harder than the others, but only because she has three Pokémon.

==Relic Stone==
Head forward, and you'll find a gray Cipher Peon and Rui's grandfather (named Eagun). You'll watch Myth Trainer Eagun get owned by Cipher Peon Skrub. Immediately after the battle this unique Cipher Peon challenges you!

You think he would've evolved the Wynaut and Geodude by now. Hitmontop is semi-hard to catch, Clamperl, Geodude, and Wynaut are a bit tougher than the Cave Path's Pokémon, but still not that hard.

Upon his defeat, you return home. Grandma Beluh starts looking for the Small Tablet you need, and Grandpa Eagun tells you to speak to Senilor. Senilor is in the house just south of the Pokémon Center. You'll learn a bit of information, then head back to Eagun's house. By now Beluh has found it. On your way out, your P☆DA gets its first e-mail. You hear news that Mt. Battle is under attack by a Cipher Admin. Don't head there just yet.

==Purifying Shadow Pokémon==
Now here's how to purify.

Simply put the Pokémon you want to purify in your party. They must have lost all four bars of their Shadow Energy. You can get rid of them in many ways (calling out to them in battle, walking with them in your party, sending them out, etc.) Now go to the Relic Stone. Pick up the Ein File C Skrub left behind, and go up to the Stone. Now is a very good time to purify all the Shadow Pokémon ready for purifying.

One last note for Agate Village: There's a Name Rater in one of the houses that can nickname Espeon, Umbreon, Plusle, and purified Shadow Pokémon if need be.

{{trainerentry|Colo Rider f.png{{!}}96px|Rider|Sosh|340|3|shadow=1|206|Dunsparce|B|33|None|179|Mareep|F|34|None|331|Cacnea|F|34|None|game=colo|36=ナチュラ|37=Natura|38=Poké Ball}}
{{trainerfooter|cave|Colo}}

Dunsparce is also very easy to catch, Mareep and Cacnea shouldn't be too much trouble for you. After the battle, keep heading left. Under the stairs are a healing pad and a computer. Here you can save+heal. Now go up the stairs. Head upwards, avoiding the first Trainer, and heads towards the stairs. Another Trainer is in the way, but this one has a Shadow Pokémon.

{{trainerheader|cave}}
{{trainerentry|Colo Hunter m.png{{!}}96px|Hunter|Zalo|512|4|shadow=1|333|Swablu|B|33|None|270|Lotad|M|31|None|374|Beldum||32|None|271|Lombre|F|32|None|game=colo|36=トレモ|37=Toremo|38=Poké Ball}}
{{trainerfooter|cave|Colo}}

Swablu should be extremely easy to catch, and all of his other Pokémon go down easy. but still get it into the yellow so as not to waste a Great Ball. After the battle, head downstairs, unless you think you should save+heal, because next up is Miror B. Beware of the other Trainer here, though. Once downstairs, it's just a simple hallway until you reach Miror B.'s room.

==Cipher Admin: Miror B.==
Awesome music starts when you enter his room. Walk up to Miror B., watch him dance. He notices you, and tells them to stop the music (awww). After a short speech, he challenges you. His music has already started up again. Yeah!

You better have a lot of Great Balls, because Sudowoodo is probably the hardest Pokémon to catch so far. The four Ludicolo should go down two turns each, barely denting your health. They can really stall the battle though, so take them out quick.

Upon defeat, Miror B. and his four Ludicolo run off. Open the box that appears to get the TM Snatch. At the top-right of the new room is a Macho Brace. Right below the Macho Brace is the Ein File P. In the room is also Plusle. Silva and Duking arrive just when you find Plusle. You're automatically brought back to Duking's house, bringing Plusle with you.

At his house, Duking will give you Plusle, a weak and useless Pokémon that better stay in your computer.

'''Plusle joined your party!''' 
[[Image:Box Colo 311 s.png]] Level 13 Plusle

Duking will now be able to be in touch with you now that he has your P☆DA number. Leave the building. When you try to leave the city, the lady in front of the fortune-telling house speaks to you. Her name is Fateen. She tells you that something is going on up north. Rui notices this is where her grandfather lives, in Agate Village. Now you can exit the city and head north to Agate Village.

==Agate Village==
There's a Pokémon Center here where you can heal+save, and move around your party. From the Pokémon Center, go left, up, and down the bridge and towards the cave. The man outside won't let you in, so head back to the entrance of Agate Village, and to the third "floor" of the village. You will arrive at Rui's grandparents' house. You will engage in conversation with them. Rui begins to tell them about Shadow Pokémon, when the man who wouldn't let you in the cave appears. He and the grandfather leave because people pushed the man aside and rushed into the cave. Follow the two all the way down to the now-open cave.

==Items==

-'''Exp. Share''': Go to third level of the village, and walk around the backside of Rui's grandparents house. Then head downwards, and you should see the item.

==Cave Path==
A female Cipher Peon greets you and a battle begins immediately.

'''Cipher Peon Doven''' 
[[Image:363.png]] Level 33 Spheal 
[[Image:318.png]] Level 34 Carvanha

Way too easy, especially after recently fighting Miror B. Next up is a male Cipher Peon.

'''Cipher Peon Silton''' 
[[Image:285.png]] Level 34 Shroomish 
[[Image:331.png]] Level 34 Cacnea

You'll push that pushover over easily. Right before you leave the cave a female Peon appears from the sky. She thinks she scared you.

'''Cipher Peon Kass''' 
[[Image:343.png]] Level 35 Baltoy 
[[Image:280.png]] Level 35 Ralts 
[[Image:281.png]] Level 35 Kirlia

Harder than the others, but only because she has three Pokémon.

==Relic Stone==
Head forward, and you'll find a gray Cipher Peon and Rui's grandfather (named Eagun). You'll watch Myth Trainer Eagun get owned by Cipher Peon Skrub. Immediately after the battle this unique Cipher Peon challenges you!

'''Cipher Peon Skrub''' 
[[Image:360.png]] Level 37 Wynaut 
[[Image:074.png]] Level 35 Geodude 
[[Image:366.png]] Level 36 Clamperl 
[[Image:237.png]] Level 38 '''Shadow''' Hitmontop

You think he would've evolved the Wynaut and Geodude by now. Hitmontop is semi-hard to catch, Clamperl, Geodude, and Wynaut are a bit tougher than the Cave Path's Pokémon, but still not that hard.

Upon his defeat, you return home. Grandma Beluh starts looking for the Small Tablet you need, and Grandpa Eagun tells you to speak to Senilor. Senilor is in the house just south of the Pokémon Center. You'll learn a bit of information, then head back to Eagun's house. By now Beluh has found it. On your way out, your P☆DA gets its first e-mail. You hear news that Mt. Battle is under attack by a Cipher Admin. Don't head there just yet.

==Purifying Shadow Pokémon==
Now here's how to purify.

Simply put the Pokémon you want to purify in your party. They must have lost all four bars of their Shadow Energy. You can get rid of them in many ways (calling out to them in battle, walking with them in your party, sending them out, etc.) Now go to the Relic Stone. Pick up the Ein File C Skrub left behind, and go up to the Stone. Now is a very good time to purify all the Shadow Pokémon ready for purifying.

One last note for Agate Village: There's a Name Rater in one of the houses that can nickname Espeon, Umbreon, Plusle, and purified Shadow Pokémon if need be.

List of Team Rocket's disguises

2019-03-24T00:19:44Z

LHakaLH: /* Kanto */

[[File:Team Rocket disguises Alola.png|thumb|250px|Team Rocket's disguises, commonly used in {{series|Sun & Moon}}]]
[[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}}, like other [[Team Rocket]] members, often use a variety of disguises in order to carry out their schemes. The obvious and bizarre costumes serve as a {{wp|running gag}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}, where {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} usually fail to recognize {{TRT}} until it is too late.

==[[Original series]]==
===[[Kanto]]===

|- style="background: #FFFFFF;"
|[[File:Disguises EP014.png|150px|center]]
|''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]''
|Jessie, James, and Meowth appear in black {{wp|Ōendan}} outfits, complete with hats, black shades, and a flag emblazoned with an R. Jessie's outfit has a blue undershirt, James's a red one, and Meowth's is green. {{an|Misty}} sees through their disguises and thanks them for their support, much to their surprise.
|- style="background: #FFFFFF;"
|[[File:Team Rocket ganguro girls.png|150px|center]]
|rowspan=2|''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]''
|Jessie and James both appear in {{wp|Ganguro}} styles, infamous for having dark tans and bright makeup. Their outfits include black shoes, short skirts, and James wearing a blonde wig that somewhat resembles his regular hairdo, and Jessie an orange one similar to her hairstyle, making this the first time James dresses like a woman in the series.
|- style="background: #FFFFFF;"
|[[File:Team Rocket Disguise EP015.png|150px|center]]
|Jessie and James later pose as waiters on the [[S.S. Anne|St. Anne]] alongside other {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s to help support {{an|Giovanni}}'s plan to steal all of the Pokémon belonging to the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s aboard the ship.
|- style="background: #FFFFFF;"
|[[File:EP018DeletedShot.png|150px|center]]
|''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]''
|Jessie and James both don swimsuits to enter the Swimsuit and Pokémon Costume contest, and James wears an inflatable bodysuit giving him large breasts to give him a more feminine appearance. James' disguise is notable for causing the initial ban of this episode in the United States.
|- style="background: #FFFFFF;"
|[[File:Disguises EP022.png|150px|center]]
|''[[EP022|Abra and the Psychic Showdown]]''
|Jessie and James wear hula girls outfits complete with {{wp|Lei (garland)|lei}} necklaces, green grass skirts and wigs. They greet Ash and his friends as they enter [[Saffron City]], and whisk them away to a building to collect their prize for being the millionth visitor to the city.
|- style="background: #FFFFFF;"
|[[File:Disguises EP026.png|150px|center]]
|''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-Sation]]''
|Jessie and James disguise themselves as "[[Ashley]]'s" parents, with Jessie wearing a pink kimono robe and glasses and her hair tied up in a bun on top, and James wearing a bald cap, a fake nose and glasses with Meowth hidden under his shirt to simulate a belly
|- style="background: #FFFFFF;"
|[[File:TeamRocketDisguiseEP028.png|150px|center]]

[[File:Best Wishes Team Rocket.png|thumb|250px|Team Rocket's disguises in the {{series|Best Wishes}}|250px]]
In the {{series|Best Wishes}}, Team Rocket has been using special disguises to hide their identities. Each one has a long overcoat, a pair of sunglasses, and a hat. Jessie's outfit is purple, James's is blue, and Meowth's is brown. Unlike most of Team Rocket's other disguises, this one has been seen in more than one episode, being seen in most of the Best Wishes episodes they appeared in up to ''[[BW023|Battling For The Love of Bug-Types!]]'', and again in ''[[BW038|Movie Time! Zorua in "The Legend of the Pokémon Knight"!]]'' and ''[[BW039|Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!]]''. Disguises as other people like in the other previous series have appeared less often, the only ones in the first season being in ''[[BW030|A UFO For Elgyem!]]'' and ''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]'' if Meowth's Umbreon disguise is not counted. They started disguising again from ''[[BW110|The Name's N!]]'' onwards.

'''Jigglypuff''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''プリン''' ''Purin'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a pure {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Igglybuff}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]] and evolves into {{p|Wigglytuff}} when exposed to a [[Moon Stone]].

==Biology==
Jigglypuff is a round, pink ball with pointed ears and large, blue eyes. It has small, stubby arms and somewhat long feet. It has a curled tuft of fur on the top of its head. It is filled with air, as seen in [[Pokémon Stadium]], when a defeated Jigglypuff deflates until it is flat. It is able to float by drawing extra air into its body, as demonstrated in [[Super Smash Bros.]]

Jigglypuff uses its eyes to mesmerize opponents. Once it achieves this, it will inflate its lungs and begin to sing a soothing lullaby. If the opponent resists falling asleep, Jigglypuff will endanger its own life by continuing to sing until it runs out of air. It is able to adjust the wavelength of its voice to match the brain waves of someone in a deep sleep. This helps ensure drowsiness in its opponents. Jigglypuff can mostly be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|lush green plains and grassy meadows}}.

==Trivia==
* Jigglypuff is typically depicted in the Smash Bros. series and [[Ken Sugimori]]'s art with green eyes and tea rose pink fur, more closely resembling its {{pkmn2|Shiny}} form. It also appeared with green eyes in ''[[AG138|Rough, Tough Jigglypuff]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''.
* Jigglypuff and its {{p|Igglybuff|evolutionary}} {{p|Wigglytuff|relatives}} share their {{pkmn|category}} name with {{p|Qwilfish}} and {{p|Drifloon}}. They are all known as the Balloon Pokémon.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on a balloon and a pink puff.

====Name origin====
Jigglypuff is a combination of ''jiggly'' and ''puff'', referring to its wobbly shape and ability to inflate itself.

Purin is literally プリン ''{{wp|Crème_caramel|purin}}'', a Japanese term for flan style pudding, referring to this Pokémon's soft body. It may also be a corruption of 風船 ''fūsen'', meaning balloon, or 膨れる ''fukureru'', to expand or inflate.

'''Ash's Squirtle''' (Japanese: '''サトシのゼニガメ''' ''Satoshi's Zenigame'') was the fifth {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{Ash}} {{pkmn2|caught}} in the [[Kanto]] [[region]], and his sixth overall.

==History==
===[[Original series]]===
====Kanto====
[[File:Squirtle Debut.png|200px|thumb|left|Squirtle in its debut]]
Squirtle first appeared in ''[[EP012|Here Comes the Squirtle Squad]]'', being the leader of a gang known as the [[Squirtle Squad]], a group of rogue Squirtle who were deserted by their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. {{MTR}} managed to befriend the Squirtle Squad by convincing them that [[Jessie]] and [[James]] were his pets. The Squirtle Squad then captured {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} so they could take {{AP|Pikachu}} back to Meowth. Ash managed to convince the Squirtle Squad to let him free to get a [[Super Potion]] for Pikachu, who was badly injured after an earlier encounter with a {{p|Goldeen}}. The Squirtle Squad agreed to let Ash go to town to buy a Super Potion, but if he didn't return by noon the next day, they threatened to dye Misty's hair purple (in the original, they threatened to kill her).
[[File:Ash Squirtle bombs.png|thumb|200px|Squirtle saving Ash, after Ash had done the same]]
When Ash got back with the Super Potion, Team Rocket began bombing the Squirtle Squad after they received Pikachu. Ash, Misty, and Brock ran to hide in the Squirtle Squad's cave; however, when Ash noticed that the leader was stuck on its shell, he went back to save it, shielding Squirtle's body with his own. Dazed and with more bombs en route, Ash told Squirtle to save itself. So touched by Ash's loyalty, Squirtle burst into tears, summoned enormous strength, and carried Ash to the safety of the cave. Squirtle then defeated Team Rocket with Water Gun. However, Team Rocket's bombs had started a forest fire, which the Squirtle Squad worked together to put out. After putting out the fire [[Officer Jenny]] appointed the Squirtle Squad as the official firefighters of the town. The leader of the Squirtle Squad preferred to join Ash on his journey rather than fight fires alongside his group, as it wanted to repay Ash for saving his life during the bombing. After being accepted, it happily ran into Ash's arms, as the Trainer declared he had caught a Squirtle.

During its time with Ash, Squirtle became one of Ash's three most trustworthy Pokémon, next to Pikachu and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, and it was used often. Squirtle's {{t|Water}} type and ability to swim helped Ash in a few choice circumstances, notably the escape from St. Anne in ''[[EP016|Pokémon Shipwreck]]''.
[[File:Misty Starmie Pikachu Squirtle Pokemon-athon.png|thumb|220px|left|Squirtle bearing Pikachu across the water]]
It served as Pikachu's 'steed' when the group [[EP033|competed in a race]] in Ash's place (Ash having taken [[Lara Laramie]]'s place on {{p|Ponyta}}). The two were at a significant disadvantage due to Squirtle's short legs and Pikachu's comparative weight, but in a way this helped as they managed to escape the {{p|Electrode}} {{m|Self-Destruct|self-destruct}}ing. They made ground when they reached the water stage, putting them in the top four with Ash, Misty, and Dario. However, intervention from {{TRT}} forced a battle, and the two were put out of the running by a {{m|Glare}} attack from {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}.

In ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', Squirtle desperately tried to stop a fuse from detonating explosives but failed. This resulted in Ash, Pikachu, and Team Rocket being trapped underground with hostile Prehistoric Pokémon. Only Squirtle was rescued from the rubble by Misty and Brock. It then did its best to rescue its Trainer. In ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]'', it was used in an attempt to con Melvin into believing Ash was able to magically control water and fire with the use of a box that inside contained Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and {{AP|Charmander}}, but the three Pokémon began to fight and ruined the trick.

In ''[[EP060|Beach Blank-Out Blastoise]]'', Squirtle was instrumental in helping rescue a colony of Squirtle, {{p|Wartortle}} and a {{p|Blastoise}} from {{an|Jigglypuff}}.

Squirtle's Gym Battle debut came late and its Kanto Gym record was two losses, the first to [[Blaine]]'s {{p|Ninetales}} in ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'', who Ash believed would be disadvantaged against Squirtle. Ninetales' {{m|Fire Spin}} completely overpowered Water Gun and took Squirtle down in one hit. It was then sent out to fight the fire in ''[[EP059|Volcanic Panic]]'' to cool off {{TP|Brock|Onix}}, Geodude and Pikachu with water as they dammed the volcano. The second loss was against {{an|Giovanni}}'s {{p|Machamp}}, under control of [[Jessie]] in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]''. Squirtle took damage from {{p|Machamp}}'s {{m|Karate Chop}}, but the battle was ended when Giovanni's Pokémon defected and Team Rocket was sent blasting off.
[[File:Ash Squirtle Nidorino.png|200px|thumb|Squirtle landing the knockout blow in the second round of the Indigo League, with its signature finisher, Skull Bash]]
Ash relied on Squirtle to battle [[Mandi]] in ''[[EP075|Round One - Begin!]]'', but his powerful {{AP|Kingler}} took the sweep and Squirtle was unnecessary. However, it won Ash's second round by using {{m|Skull Bash}} to defeat a {{p|Nidorino}} in ''[[EP076|Fire and Ice]]'' after it revealed its ability to use Withdraw to absorb the Nidorino's Tackle.

In ''[[EP079|Friend and Foe Alike]]'', Squirtle was sent out to battle [[Ritchie]]'s {{p|Butterfree}}, Happy. However, it was easily put to sleep by {{m|Sleep Powder}} and Ash lost the round.

====Orange Islands====
Squirtle was used more prominently in the Orange Island Gyms, first in competition against [[Cissy]]'s {{p|Seadra}} in ''[[EP085|Fit to be Tide]]''. Both Pokémon had to shoot cans with Water Gun, but when they hit the final can at the same time, the match resulted in a draw. Though it did not win, Ash still congratulated it on its admirable work.

In ''[[EP093|Naval Maneuvers]]'', it joined Pikachu, Bulbasaur, and Ash in steering the ice sled down the mountain, resulting in a win for Ash.
[[File:Ash Squirtle Hydro Pump Rudy Starmie.png|thumb|220px|left|Learning Hydro Pump to overcome Rudy's Starmie]]
One of Squirtle's most notable battles and its only Gym Battle win was in ''[[EP103|Misty Meets Her Match]]''. Earlier in the episode, it helped Pikachu and Bulbasaur destroy the targets, before coming out third against [[Rudy]]'s {{p|Starmie}}. Its powerful Water Gun managed to match Squirtle's, and Rudy's music allowed Starmie to dance away from Squirtle's moves and then use Thunderbolt to knock Squirtle into submission. With encouragement from Misty, Squirtle propelled itself away from Thunderbolt and while using Withdraw learns Hydro Pump to become airborne and hit Starmie hard. Closing the battle with Skull Bash, Ash wins the battle and his third Orange Island Gym Badge.

In ''[[EP106|The Pokémon Water War!]]'', Squirtle attempted to rescue a warehouse on fire, but when the fire spread, it needed rescuing itself by [[Captain Aidan]] and Team Wartortle. This shot Squirtle's confidence as a firefighter and Ash pleaded with Aidan to allow Squirtle to train with his team for a short period. However, they fell into a Team Rocket trap and were captured, but Squirtle's thinking allowed the group to escape: they flooded the cabin to allow mobility, and then tricked {{MTR}} into cutting the nets, before blasting Team Rocket away. Squirtle then joins the effort at a burning apartment and halts the fire, saving the day.

In ''[[EP111|Hello, Pummelo!]]'', Squirtle was sent against {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}}'s Onix, who managed to evade Water Gun with {{m|Dig}} and then caught Squirtle with {{m|Bind}}. However, Squirtle broke free with a Withdraw/Hydro Pump combination, then hit Onix with Skull Bash to knock it out. In [[EP112|the next episode]], it fought {{TP|Drake|Dragonite}}, only for its Hydro Pump to be countered by Dragonite's Water Gun. Squirtle was able to use Withdraw in time to evade most of the following {{m|Thunderbolt}} but was still badly hurt. Squirtle used Bubble Beam to hit Dragonite dead-on, but this was the only successful attack and it was beaten by a slam from Dragonite's tail. Pikachu went on to defeat the exhausted Dragonite and Squirtle earned a place in the Orange Islands Hall of Fame.

====Johto====
Squirtle accompanied Ash to [[Johto]] as well, the final time it would serve as a permanent member of his team. In ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile]]'', Squirtle was used against Team Rocket with Pikachu, Bulbasaur, and Charizard. Combining its Water Gun with their attacks, it fired directly on Team Rocket's Pokémon. In ''[[EP118|The Double Trouble Header]]'', it was sent out to battle against Team Rocket along with Bulbasaur after they captured Pikachu and {{TP|Casey|Chikorita}}. During its time with him, it and Bulbasaur showed concern for him on occasions, such as when Ash, Pikachu, and his soon to be caught Chikorita were lost in a snowstorm in ''[[EP126|The Chikorita Rescue]].'' In ''[[EP127|Once in a Blue Moon]]'', a Quagsire stole the [[GS Ball]] and swam away. Ash tried to run after it but ended up sending out Squirtle to chase it down. After failing to wrestle it out of the Quagsire's mouth, Squirtle used Water Gun, causing the GS Ball it slips out of Quagsire's mouth, and allowing Pikachu to catch it on the shore. While both Quagsire and Squirtle were using Water Gun against each other, Misty tried once again to catch it, but before throwing the Poké Ball, Officer Jenny stopped them and arrested them for violating the Quagsire Preservation Restrictions.
[[File:Ash Squirtle Bulbasaur.png|thumb|220px|Squirtle and Bulbasaur]]
In ''[[EP147|The Fire-ing Squad!]]'', it competed in an event called the [[Fire and Rescue Grand Prix]], a firefighting competition for water Pokémon. As luck would have it, one of the teams was the Squirtle Squad, but they were confused without their leader. Ash's Squirtle led the Squirtle Squad to win the Grand Prix, and at the end of the episode Squirtle returned to the Squirtle Squad because Ash felt that the old gang needed Squirtle more than he did. It said goodbye to its friends and Bulbasaur extended a {{m|Vine Whip|vine}} to its long-time friend, shaking solemnly.

It returned briefly to [[EP267|battle in the]] [[Silver Conference]] after {{AP|Kingler}} was badly injured by a group of renegade {{p|Voltorb}}. It joined {{AP|Totodile}} and {{AP|Phanpy}} against the {{type|Fire}} Trainer [[Macy]]. It was Ash's last Pokémon, faced with an advantaged {{p|Electabuzz}}. However, Squirtle proved much faster and managed to hit Electabuzz with a series of Water Guns before it could launch any {{type|Electric}} moves. A Skull Bash was enough to knock out Electabuzz and even up the match for Ash, leaving just {{p|Quilava}} left. Squirtle used an explosion of moves to cover a stealthy Water Gun, but was hit and knocked on its back by Quilava. As Macy went in for the knockout, Squirtle used Hydro Pump to hit Quilava with water and its own body, sealing the victory for Ash.

In [[EP268|Tie One On!]], Squirtle and Bulbasaur rekindle their friendship, but Squirtle starts a fight with [[Jackson]]'s {{p|Azumarill}} and {{TP|Jackson|Meganium}}. Bulbasaur attempts to restrain its hotheaded companion but ends up becoming angry at Meganium and Azumarill when they play dirty and trip it over. Squirtle stayed around to watch Ash's Silver Conference battles, and then left in ''[[EP272|Johto Photo Finish!]]''

==={{series|Advanced Generation}}===
====Hoenn====
While Squirtle made no appearances during the Hoenn arc of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, it did make an appearance, along with the rest of the [[Squirtle Squad]], in ''[[SS007|Of Meowth and Pokémon (Part 2)]]''. Squirtle and two other members of the Squirtle Squad ambushed {{DL|Pichu Brothers|Smoochum}} and attacked her with a Water Gun, sending her flying.

====Kanto Battle Frontier====
[[File:Ash and Squirtle.png|thumb|200px|Squirtle and Ash]]
In ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four!]]'', Squirtle returned to help Ash with his final battle against {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}, meeting [[May's Squirtle]]. It expressed happiness in seeing Pikachu and Bulbasaur again and departed with the two, Ash, and Charizard for the woods. Though tension between the group began to erupt, they settled their differences and sat as Ash recalled his meetings with the four of them. After Pikachu was captured by Team Rocket, Squirtle participated in saving his teammate.

In ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'', Squirtle battled Brandon's {{p|Ninjask}}. Squirtle's {{m|Rapid Spin}} successfully deflected {{m|Aerial Ace}}, but Ninjask gained the upper hand by stalling Squirtle with Double Team and hitting with Aerial Ace. Squirtle managed to escape {{m|Sandstorm}} with Hydro Pump, but became blinded by {{m|Sand Attack}}, leaving it exposed to Ninjask's attacks. While the next Hydro Pump missed, the water was able to clear Squirtle's eyes. Squirtle then swiftly unleashed Skull Bash, knocking Ninjask out of the battle. Squirtle was then matched up against Brandon's {{p|Solrock}}. In this battle, all of Squirtle's moves were dodged or blocked by Solrock's Psychic moves. A missed Rapid Spin saw Squirtle crash into the wall, and it was flattened by {{m|Solar Beam}}, causing it to lose the battle. After Ash defeated Brandon, Squirtle returned to the Squirtle Squad.

==={{series|Best Wishes}}===
Squirtle appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW116|The Fires of a Red-Hot Reunion!]]'', when Ash remembered the night he was stuck in a snowstorm and Squirtle, along with Charmander, Bulbasaur, Pidgeotto and Pikachu, helped keep Ash warm.

==={{series|Sun & Moon}}===
[[File:Squirtle Squad SM042.png|250px|thumb|Squirtle in Sun & Moon]]
Squirtle and some of its fellow Squirtle Squad members reappeared in ''[[SM042|Alola, Kanto!]]'', being photographed by {{Rotom}}.

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Squirtle Squad.png|200px|thumb|left|Squirtle and the Squirtle Squad]]
{{bulbanews|Personality & Development: Ash's Squirtle}}
Squirtle is one of Ash's most trustworthy Pokémon, but is by no means perfect. Compared especially with its closest friend, the very serious {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, it comes across as immature and mischievous, particularly during its time with the [[Squirtle Squad]] where it led the team to commit various pranks and so on, and how it embarrassed itself trying to intimidate a {{p|Snubbull}} in ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]''. However, through its travels with Ash it matured considerably, and its behavior when it reunited with its Squad later on had a noticeable difference.

Mature or not, Squirtle is shown to be a born leader and prefers to wear sunglasses occasionally, donning them when investigating {{an|Jigglypuff}}'s presence on the island in ''[[EP060|Beach Blank-Out Blastoise]]'' and when it competed against [[Team Wartortle]] to prove itself, its fire-fighting spirit hurt by its inability to put out the fire that Team Wartortle had extinguished.

==In the manga==
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[File:Ash Squirtle EToP.png|thumb|200px|right|Squirtle in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
[[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]] owns a Squirtle in the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]. It first appears in the chapter ''[[ET08|You Gotta Have Friends]]'', though its capture is not shown, it is merely stated that "Ash has been busy since the last comic". Squirtle is first seen when a lonely Ash decides to play with his other Pokémon while Pikachu is off playing another group of Pikachu. Squirtle gets into a fight with {{AP|Fearow}} while Ash is attacked by his other two Pokémon.

Squirtle was used in the second round of the 88th Pokémon League tournament and helped win the second round. In the fifth round, Squirtle was used to battle [[Ritchie]]'s {{p|Butterfree|Happy}}. The two fought hard but the match ended in a tie when Happy was knocked out and Squirtle was put to sleep.

In ''[[ET14|The Orange Islands]]'', Squirtle was used to drive away a group of wild {{p|Krabby}} that were terrorizing a wild {{AP|Lapras}}.

Squirtle appeared again in ''[[ET16|You Bet Your Wife]]'' where Ash decided to use it in a dance competition in his Gym battle against [[Rudy]]. Squirtle simply retreated into its shell and rolled around to dance. Later, it was used to battle Rudy's {{p|Starmie}} in the third round of their three-on-three battle. Despite Starmie having powerful {{type|Electric}} attacks and the ability to latch onto Squirtle tightly, Squirtle managed to turn the battle around by tossing Starmie off with Hydro Pump and finishing it off with Skull Bash, winning the match for Ash in the process.

In ''[[ET19|Ash vs. Gary]]'', Squirtle was used to send a Poké Ball flying towards a {{p|Slowpoke}} that Ash and Gary were competing to capture. Squirtle's Hydro Pump proved successful, allowing Ash to capture the Slowpoke first.

==Trivia==
* Squirtle is the first {{type|Water}} Pokémon owned by Ash.
* Ash originally wanted a Squirtle to be his [[starter Pokémon]], but Professor Oak told him it was taken by a [[Gary Oak|Trainer who was not late]].
* Squirtle is the only member of Ash's original team of six ({{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Pidgeot}}, {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Charizard}}, and itself) that has neither [[Evolution|evolved]] nor ever explicitly refused to evolve.
* Squirtle is the first of Ash's Pokémon to have been placed in a [[Poké Ball]] off-screen, the other being {{AP|Lapras}}.
* Squirtle's gender was hinted at in the Japanese version of ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''. In the subtitles, it refers to itself as おれ ''{{wp|Japanese pronouns|ore}}'', which is a pronoun normally used by males, also used by characters such as {{Ash}}, {{an|Brock}}, and [[James]] in the Japanese version.
* Squirtle is the only Pokémon owned by Ash to have used a move for the first time in a {{pkmn|movie}}.
* Squirtle is the only Pokémon that Ash has owned for longer than one [[series]] that has never been confirmed to have stayed at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]].

'''Surf''' (Japanese: '''なみのり''' ''Surfing'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Water}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It is [[HM03]] in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} through {{gen|VI}} and [[TM94]] in [[Generation VII]].

==Effect==
===In battle===
====Generations I and II====
Surf inflicts damage and has no secondary effect.

====Generation III====
Surf can hit a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turn of {{m|Dive}}, and if it does, it will have its power doubled for that Pokémon.

In a [[Double Battle]], Surf will hit both opposing Pokémon.

Surf can be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining extra three appeal points if {{m|Dive}} was used in the prior turn. It can also be used to start a combination, causing {{m|Dive}} to give extra two appeal points if used in the next turn.
====Generation IV====
Surf will now hit all adjacent Pokémon, including allies.

====Generation V====
If Surf hits a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turn of {{m|Dive}}, its damage dealt to that Pokémon will be doubled instead of its power (resulting in virtually the same effect).

In [[Triple Battle]]s, Surf will hit all other adjacent Pokémon, including allies.

====Generation VI====
Surf's power has been reduced from 95 to 90. Surf will also destroy [[natural objects|stalagmites]] found in the background of {{pkmn|battle}}s.

===Outside of battle===
Surf can be used outside of battle to travel over [[Water tile|bodies of water]]. When doing so, [[wild Pokémon]] may be encountered. Surfing is a very important mechanic of the games and usually must be used to complete the game, as all main series games to date except {{game|Black and White|s}} have required Surf in order to reach the [[Pokémon League]] where the [[Elite Four]] reside.

The speed of Surfing has varied back and forth through games. In Generations I and II, the speed was at the same speed as walking. In Generation III, the speed was increased to running speed. In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the Surfing speed was reduced to walking speed again. The speed was returned to running speed in {{game|Platinum}}.

When Surf is used outside of battle, the sprite of an aquatic Pokémon carrying the player on the water is shown. This sprite is generic, so the same sprite is used for every surfing Pokémon, regardless of the Pokémon's own [[Menu#Pokémon|menu]] sprite. These sprites change between generations. In Generation I, the sprite used is the one used to display all aquatic Pokémon, and resembles {{p|Seel}} and {{p|Dewgong}}. In Generation II, the sprite resembles a red {{p|Lapras}} (blue in Crystal if the player is {{ga|Krys|a girl}}). In both Generations I and II, a {{p|Pikachu}} using Surf will display a {{DL|Pikachu variants|surfing Pikachu}} sprite instead of the normal one. From Generation III onwards, the sprite is indistinguishable as a specific Pokémon, although some Pokémon have special overworld sprites in the Generation VI games. In the Generation VI games, surfing on Lapras specifically will show the player riding on Lapras instead of the usual generic shape. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Wailmer}} and {{p|Sharpedo}} all have their own surfing model; additionally, Kyogre moves faster and has a larger hitbox, while Sharpedo moves twice as fast as normal but prevents [[fishing]].

In [[Generation VII]], Surf is no longer a [[field move]]. In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], its functions are given to the [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] {{p|Lapras}} and {{p|Sharpedo}}. In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the player can use [[Secret Technique]] Sea Skim instead.

[[File:Surf SSBB.png|200px|thumb|right|Piplup using Surf in Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]
===Super Smash Bros. series===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', {{p|Piplup}} creates a wave and then surfs on it, pushing any players it hits. Anyone caught in it will be pushed until Piplup disappears, or pushes the character off the stage. Piplup will keep using Surf even when off the stage.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]'', {{p|Oshawott}} uses the move with a similar effect.

==Trivia==
* Surf is the only former HM move that no Pokémon learns via leveling up.
* Some of the Pokémon that can learn Surf, like {{p|Barboach}}, appear to lack the physique required to transport a human being at sea.
* [[Junichi Masuda]] revealed in an interview that Surf is his favorite move.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090327224428/http://www.gamepro.com/article/previews/209340/pokemon-platinum-developer-interview-pt-2/ Preview : Pokemon Platinum: Developer Interview! - GamePro.com]</ref>
* Surf and {{m|Fly}} are the only HM moves that become event-exclusive moves on certain Pokémon, both on {{p|Pikachu}}.
* In Generation VI, Surf and Fly are tied for having the highest base power of all HM moves. Prior to Generation VI, Surf had the highest base power.
* If {{m|Secret Power}} is used in the ocean in Generation III, it will have the animation of Surf.
* There is {{DL|List of unobtainable items|?????|an unused item}} allowing players to cross water, identical to Surf in {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}. It has been fan-named as "surfboard".
* {{m|Muddy Water}} has the same animation as Surf, except it uses a brown coloring instead.
* In console 3D games, when {{p|Pikachu}} uses this move, a surfboard appears underneath it; and when {{p|Raichu}} uses this move in these games, it surfs on its tail. This does not occur in any handheld games.
*In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], [[List of glitches in Generation VI#Evolving Wailmer Surf glitch|a glitch]] causes the game to freeze if the player is surfing on a {{p|Wailmer}} and it evolves while the player is fishing.

'''Misty's Starmie''' (Japanese: '''カスミのスターミー''' ''Kasumi's Starmie'') was one of the three original {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} acquired by {{an|Misty}} in the [[Kanto]] [[region]].

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
====History====
[[File:Starmie Debut.png|thumb|left|250px|Starmie in its debut]]
=====[[Original series]]=====
Misty rarely uses Starmie in {{pkmn|battle}}, generally favoring {{TP|Misty|Staryu}} to battle on land (and often {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} by mistake). It seems to be fairly powerful though, as it was able to carry Misty through a long Pokémon race using a combination of swimming and hovering. Despite not having a known gender, when called into battle it would utter a feminine 'Hoh' cry. Like its pre-evolution, Starmie's core would also flicker with a dull 'bing' sound when it was tired. Starmie was typically used in more of an instrumental capacity than its pre-evolved counterpart, akin to the in-game term [[HM slave]], being used to {{m|Surf|traverse water}} on many occasions.

Starmie made its debut in Misty's Gym battle against Ash, in ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''. Misty had successfully beaten {{AP|Butterfree}} with {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}, and Starmie was called out against the higher level {{AP|Pidgeotto}}, suggesting that at this time Starmie was more powerful than Staryu. It dived underwater to dodge Pidgeotto's {{m|Whirlwind}}, and shot up into the air to land a Tackle. However, its second tackle was deflected by {{m|Wing Attack}}, and then it was blown into the Gym wall by a {{m|Gust}} attack, on the brink of losing before Team Rocket intervened. The battle was called off and Ash was given the Badge regardless.

[[File:Misty and Starmie.png|thumb|250px|Misty holding Starmie, its gem shattered]]
In ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]'', Misty was incensed by {{OBP|Joe|EP009}}'s insistence that he could easily defeat her Water Pokémon as he had done it countless times on the simulator, including once right in front of her. She promptly challenged him to a real battle, and sent out Starmie to fight his {{p|Weepinbell}}, most likely because Starmie had been so easily beaten in the simulation. Starmie used a single Water Gun and knocked out Weepinbell, leading to Joe's ridicule by [[Giselle]]. However, Misty then challenged Giselle, calling her out for not being a true friend. Giselle's {{p|Graveler}} proved to be a very powerful opponent, deflecting Water Gun by spinning and then smashing into Starmie, shattering the center gem and knocking it through the window and into the pool. It is one of the two instances a Starmie's core has been seen shattering, the other being owned by a young Trainer on the St. Anne. Starmie's regenerative abilities were also demonstrated, as by the next time it was seen, its central core was repaired.

Starmie was sent out to battle a wild {{p|Oddish}} in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]''. It successfully weakened Oddish with Water Gun and Tackle, but was knocked out in one Tackle from the {{AP|Bulbasaur}} that came to its defense. It later helped to rescue the trio from the sinking St. Anne in ''[[EP016|Pokémon Shipwreck]]'', carrying {{an|Brock}} from the ship, and later towing the group's raft out of the range of James' raging {{TP|James|Gyarados}}. In ''[[EP019|Tentacool & Tentacruel]]'', it rescued the sailors that had been attacked.

It appeared to have an Ability similar to {{a|Water Absorb}}, even though Abilities did not exist when Misty was a main character. This was demonstrated when, in ''[[EP021|Bye Bye Butterfree!]]'', Starmie chased Team Rocket away with a Tackle, but was knocked out when [[Jessie]] smashed it with a hammer. However it seemed to regain its health when Misty jetted water on it. In ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', it helped Staryu and {{AP|Squirtle}} put out the fire at Celadon Gym with Water Gun.

Starmie paired with Misty in ''[[EP033|The Flame Pokémon-athon!]]''. It made the final four as it was able to {{m|Surf}} across the river, allowing it to reach the top four. However, like everyone else, it was sabotaged by Team Rocket and blinded by {{TP|James|Weezing}}, taking it out long enough to allow [[Dario]], the man who had encouraged Team Rocket, to make a break for the finish.

[[File:Misty Starmie Pikachu Squirtle Pokemon-athon.png|thumb|left|220px|Starmie [[Surf (move)|bearing Misty across the water]].]]
Starmie was also one of Misty's Pokémon to be stolen by {{OBP|Keith|EP049}} in ''[[EP049|So Near, Yet So Farfetch'd]]'', along with her Staryu, {{TP|Misty|Goldeen}}, {{TP|Misty|Horsea}}, and Psyduck (but Psyduck escaped later). It was later one of the Pokémon he offered to Jessie and James along with Staryu. However, the [[Poké Ball]]s supposedly containing them turned out to not exist, instead containing stones with ''Bii-da'' faces.

Misty attempted to round off her team of four in ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]'' with Starmie, but Psyduck popped out when it came to the actual battle. This happened quite commonly with Starmie and Psyduck.

In ''[[EP061|The Misty Mermaid]]'', {{TP|Misty|Horsea}} was feeling sick due to lack of exercise, so Misty dropped it off at the [[Cerulean Gym]] so it could spend its time swimming in the aquariums there. Misty left Starmie there with it, because her sisters wanted to borrow it. Misty later reclaimed it when she became [[Gym Leader]] of Cerulean.

====={{series|Advanced Generation}}=====
It reappeared briefly in ''[[SS002|Cerulean Blues]]'' along with Horsea, being reunited with Misty. Both were quickly scared off, however, by {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}}. It appeared briefly again in ''[[SS011|A Date with Delcatty]]'' when Misty was feeding the Pokémon.

====Personality and characteristics====
As Starmie wasn't given very many onscreen appearances, little is known about its personality. When in battle, it has been shown to be quite obedient and loyal to Misty. Starmie has been known to sometimes droop and bend its points when in pain or disappointment.

===In Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Misty Starmie PO.png|250px|thumb|Starmie in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Starmie was seen briefly in ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]''. It was used by Misty in her [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against {{OBP|Red|Origins}}, but was defeated off-screen.

==In the games==
Starmie is the most regular Pokémon to appear on Misty's teams, making an appearance on all of them to date, as her signature Pokémon.

==In the manga==
[[File:Misty Starmie EToP.png|thumb|125px|Starmie in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
Misty used her Starmie in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] chapter ''[[ET07|Pikachu's Excellent Adventure]]'' to rehydrate [[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]] after he had cried too much for losing his {{AP|Pikachu}}. It was also used to battle against {{TRT}} in [[ET08|the next chapter]].

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===

===={{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}====
Starmie appeared under the control of Misty in a [[Gym]] challenge against {{adv|Red}} in ''[[PS008|Suddenly Starmie]]''. The challenge didn't last long, however, as Starmie easily defeated [[Saur]] after a failed {{m|Vine Whip}} did little damage. However, she stated it wasn't strong enough in [[Mt. Moon]] to battle [[Koga]]'s {{p|Rhydon}}. The battle between Bulbasaur and Starmie was merely a demonstration for Misty to show how ill-prepared Red was for facing the dangers that undoubtedly awaited them. She ended up giving him the [[Cascade Badge]] after a few days of training together. In ''[[PS025|You Know...Articuno!]]'', Starmie was shown floating Misty around after when she traded her [[Gyara|Gyarados]] away to Red for him to surf with.

===={{chap|Yellow}}====
In ''[[PS077|Striking Golduck]]'', Starmie was used to send a message to [[Cerise Island]] using the jewel on its center to inscribe mysterious, ancient characters for people to read with.

===={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
In ''[[PS151|Lovely Lanturn]]'', Starmie used its psychic powers to write out {{adv|Suicune}}'s thoughts, telling her about the dangers of the [[Masked Man]]. Starmie was later seen defeating [[Whitney's Miltank|Mil Mil]] with a quick succession of attacks in the Gym Leaders' exhibition match.
It was [[PS165|last]] seen fighting against mind-controlled {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s.

In ''[[EP019|Tentacool & Tentacruel]]'', it rescued the sailors that had been attacked.

It appeared to have an Ability similar to {{a|Water Absorb}}, even though Abilities did not exist when Misty was a main character. This was demonstrated when, in ''[[EP021|Bye Bye Butterfree!]]'', Starmie chased Team Rocket away with a Tackle, but was knocked out when [[Jessie]] smashed it with a hammer. However it seemed to regain its health when Misty jetted water on it. In ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', it helped Staryu and {{AP|Squirtle}} put out the fire at Celadon Gym with Water Gun.

Starmie paired with Misty in ''[[EP033|The Flame Pokémon-athon!]]''. It made the final four as it was able to {{m|Surf}} across the river, allowing it to reach the top four. However, like everyone else, it was sabotaged by Team Rocket and blinded by {{TP|James|Weezing}}, taking it out long enough to allow [[Dario]], the man who had encouraged Team Rocket, to make a break for the finish.

[[File:Misty Starmie Pikachu Squirtle Pokemon-athon.png|thumb|left|220px|Starmie [[Surf (move)|bearing Misty across the water]].]]
Starmie was also one of Misty's Pokémon to be stolen by {{OBP|Keith|EP049}} in ''[[EP049|So Near, Yet So Farfetch'd]]'', along with her Staryu, {{TP|Misty|Goldeen}}, {{TP|Misty|Horsea}}, and Psyduck (but Psyduck escaped later). It was later one of the Pokémon he offered to Jessie and James along with Staryu. However, the [[Poké Ball]]s supposedly containing them turned out to not exist, instead containing stones with ''Bii-da'' faces.

Misty attempted to round off her team of four in ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]'' with Starmie, but Psyduck popped out when it came to the actual battle. This happened quite commonly with Starmie and Psyduck.

In ''[[EP061|The Misty Mermaid]]'', {{TP|Misty|Horsea}} was feeling sick due to lack of exercise, so Misty dropped it off at the [[Cerulean Gym]] so it could spend its time swimming in the aquariums there. Misty left Starmie there with it, because her sisters wanted to borrow it. Misty later reclaimed it when she became [[Gym Leader]] of Cerulean.

====={{series|Advanced Generation}}=====
It reappeared briefly in ''[[SS002|Cerulean Blues]]'' along with Horsea, being reunited with Misty. Both were quickly scared off, however, by {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}}. It appeared briefly again in ''[[SS011|A Date with Delcatty]]'' when Misty was feeding the Pokémon.

====Personality and characteristics====
As Starmie wasn't given very many onscreen appearances, little is known about its personality. When in battle, it has been shown to be quite obedient and loyal to Misty. Starmie has been known to sometimes droop and bend its points when in pain or disappointment.

====Moves used====

===In Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Misty Starmie PO.png|250px|thumb|Starmie in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Starmie was seen briefly in ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]''. It was used by Misty in her [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against {{OBP|Red|Origins}}, but was defeated off-screen.

==In the games==
Starmie is the most regular Pokémon to appear on Misty's teams, making an appearance on all of them to date, as her signature Pokémon.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
Misty used her Starmie in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] chapter ''[[ET07|Pikachu's Excellent Adventure]]'' to rehydrate [[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]] after he had cried too much for losing his {{AP|Pikachu}}. It was also used to battle against {{TRT}} in [[ET08|the next chapter]].

===={{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}====
Starmie appeared under the control of Misty in a [[Gym]] challenge against {{adv|Red}} in ''[[PS008|Suddenly Starmie]]''. The challenge didn't last long, however, as Starmie easily defeated [[Saur]] after a failed {{m|Vine Whip}} did little damage. However, she stated it wasn't strong enough in [[Mt. Moon]] to battle [[Koga]]'s {{p|Rhydon}}. The battle between Bulbasaur and Starmie was merely a demonstration for Misty to show how ill-prepared Red was for facing the dangers that undoubtedly awaited them. She ended up giving him the [[Cascade Badge]] after a few days of training together. In ''[[PS025|You Know...Articuno!]]'', Starmie was shown floating Misty around after when she traded her [[Gyara|Gyarados]] away to Red for him to surf with.

===={{chap|Yellow}}====
In ''[[PS077|Striking Golduck]]'', Starmie was used to send a message to [[Cerise Island]] using the jewel on its center to inscribe mysterious, ancient characters for people to read with.

===={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
In ''[[PS151|Lovely Lanturn]]'', Starmie used its psychic powers to write out {{adv|Suicune}}'s thoughts, telling her about the dangers of the [[Masked Man]]. Starmie was later seen defeating [[Whitney's Miltank|Mil Mil]] with a quick succession of attacks in the Gym Leaders' exhibition match.
It was [[PS165|last]] seen fighting against mind-controlled {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s.

{{spoilers}}

==Blurb==

As our heroes and Team Rocket beat the odds by surviving the sinking ship, they are dragged into another potentially deadly situation when they are attacked by the ferocious Pokémon, Gyarados. One Gyarados becomes many and Ash, friends and foe are swept up in a tornado landing them in various locations on an island. Ash loses Pikachu and the Poké Balls containing Charmander, Squirtle and Bulbasaur. Jessie and James from Team Rocket, who land in another remote part of the island, also lose their Pokémon. Thus both Pokémon and their masters are left searching for each other on this strange island, inhabited by gigantic Pokémon. Where could this island be?

==Plot==
After the attack caused by a group of {{p|Gyarados}} in [[EP016|the last episode]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} end up on an island, where they realize that four of Ash's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, including {{AP|Pikachu}}, are missing. On another side of the island, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are awakened by a {{p|Krabby}} to find their Pokémon, including {{MTR}}, are missing. They try to call for help in a phone booth, but they soon remember they don't have any money. On another part of the island, a separated Pikachu finds the {{ball|Poké}}s of the separated Pokémon and releases {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}. They then see a {{p|Slowpoke}} fishing in the sea with its tail. Pikachu and Charmander decide to ask for help but with little result while Bulbasaur and Squirtle relax on the beach.

While trying to find Ash and the others, Ash's Pokémon are found by {{TRT}}'s Pokémon, {{TP|James|Koffing}}, {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}} and {{MTR}}. Meowth tells Koffing and Ekans to attack Ash's Pokémon, only to find out they won't battle for him because he is not their master. They also tell him that they are not bad guys and only take bad orders from their masters, much to Meowth's dismay, leaving him unable to battle Ash's Pokémon. Each side tells the other about their missing Trainers and Koffing and Ekans get visibly upset when Bulbasaur mentions that their Trainers may have abandoned them. Pikachu immediately refutes the very idea, telling Bulbasaur that Ash would never do something like that. The two sets of Pokémon join together to find their Trainers. Meanwhile, Meowth is tied up for what he has done to Pikachu and the others in the past. While they are eating, a giant {{p|Rhydon}} frightens them. The Pokémon escape, accidentally leaving Meowth tied up. Pikachu unties Meowth so he can escape. Meowth shows no gratitude for Pikachu's action, instead pushing him and saying that he could have got out himself. At the same time, Ash, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} are being chased by a giant {{p|Zapdos}}. They soon elude it and decide to rest for the night. Ash vows to find his Pokémon no matter what. Meanwhile, Jessie and James are being chased by a huge {{p|Moltres}}. They run into a sign and are both knocked out, causing them to escape the Moltres.

The next day, Team Rocket runs back to the phone booth and Jessie makes a phone call. When James tells her that they don't have money, she says they are calling {{an|Giovanni|the boss}} by collect. They annoy him with their motto, causing him to hang up on them. Jessie and James then use a wire to get help by pulling on it while inside, hoping it will lead to the phone company. They see a {{p|Pikachu}} and decide to catch it, not realizing until it is too late that it is in fact a giant Pikachu. At the same time, Ash and company run behind a rock after being attacked by a giant {{p|Charizard}}. Meanwhile, the Pokémon, still searching for Ash and Team Rocket (and having agreed to a truce until they find them), come across a giant {{p|Blastoise}}. Squirtle is forced to ask it for directions by the other Pokémon, something that it's not too happy to do. Squirtle tries to start up a conversation with the giant Blastoise but it gets attacked by its {{m|Hydro Pump}}. They then see a {{p|Venusaur}} and Squirtle this time asks Bulbasaur to seek help from it as Squirtle thinks it's one of Bulbasaur's relatives. Bulbasaur is too afraid to ask the giant Venusaur and so says that it's an orphan and has no family, to which Squirtle decides to call it a "coward." Team Rocket, still pulling the telephone wire, are now being chased by a huge {{p|Kabutops}}. They decide to jump into a rail cart to get away. It starts moving but begins to head backwards toward the Kabutops, rather than away from it. It gets its foot tied in the wire and is dragged after Team Rocket. Then Ash and friends find the giant Pikachu, which is then knocked down because of Team Rocket and the trailing wire on the rail cart. Ash and friends fall into the cart with Team Rocket inside. Then they see their Pokémon chased by a giant Charizard, Blastoise and Venusaur. The Pokémon manage to jump to their Trainers and are at last reunited. Then the cart is sent flying into the air because of a giant loop in the rail tracks causing them to fly and crash into the giant Zapdos which they then discover to be robotic. Soon all the other giant robot Pokémon crash into each other and lie broken in a massive pile on the beach. Then the rail cart crashes into the water. A Gyarados shaped boat approaches the island. Inside, a woman introduces what appears to be tourists on the boat to Pokémon Island, however on noticing the damaged Pokémon, apologizes and then makes a call. It is revealed that the island is actually an attraction park owned by Team Rocket's boss, Giovanni, who isn't too happy with the destruction of Pokémon Land.

Ash and his friends continue on, ending up in [[Porta Vista]]. Meanwhile, the Slowpoke from earlier in the episode is still sitting on the rocks. It stands up, revealing a {{p|Shellder}} attached to its tail. The newly evolved {{p|Slowbro}} looks forward and says its name proudly.

==Trivia==
* This is the only episode where subtitles were used to translate what the Pokémon were saying.
** In some non-English dubs, the Pokémon used human language or voice-overs and the English subtitles were kept, while in some dubs, the English subtitles were translated into subtitles of the respective languages.
* In the Japanese version of this episode, some Pokémon had their genders revealed through the subtitles: {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Squirtle}}, and {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}} were implied to be male due to using a first person pronoun almost exclusively used by males.
* This is the first episode where ''"[[Who's That Pokémon?]]"'' is different in the English version than the Japanese version.
* The picture used during ''"Who's That Pokémon?"'' in the Japanese version shows a [[Animals in the Pokémon world|real fish]] biting {{p|Slowpoke}}'s tail.
* {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and Meowth appeared to get drunk at the stand, which is backed up by somebody talking to a "barkeep" in the original episode.
* The music that plays during Pokémon Land- tour is the same that plays when [[S.S. Anne]] leaves the port in the game.
* The robotic Moltres that chased Team Rocket and the robotic Rhydon were the only giant Pokémon that were not seen to be destroyed, although Giovanni's phone call implied that they were indeed destroyed as well.
**[[Island of the Giant Pokémon (book)|The book adaptation]], however, does have the robotic Rhydon being tripped alongside the other robotic Pokémon as well.
* Even though {{Ash}} was never shown to find {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}'s [[Poké Ball]]s, he doesn't seem to have lost them.
* Slowbro says "Slowpoke" at the end of the episode, before realising it had evolved. This implies that even Pokémon without training are able to say some things that aren't their own name, at the very least the names of their previous forms.
* This episode is featured on ''Volume 4: Squirtle'' from [[Viz Media]]'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 1}} series.
* The book ''{{book|Island of the Giant Pokémon}}'' is partially based on this episode.
* More Pokémon's [[Kanto Pokérap|Pokérap]] images come from this episode than any other episode, providing the images for {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Rhydon}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, and {{p|Slowbro}}. Out of these, only Slowbro and Meowth were actual Pokémon.
* In India, when this episode aired on CN, the Pokémon were given voice overs even though the subtitles were kept. When it was aired on Hungama, the Pokémon did not receive voice overs even though the subtitles were removed. This made it difficult to understand the Pokémon speech.
* Despite Ekans explicitly stating that there was no such thing as an evil Pokémon in this episode, future episodes nixed that idea, most notably {{p|Togepi}} in ''[[DP142|Where No Togepi Has Gone Before!]]'' and {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Malamar|Malamar}} in ''[[XY019|A Conspiracy to Conquer]]''.
* This episode contains one of the few instances of Pokémon eating humans being mentioned (by {{AP|Squirtle}}, who jokingly claimed, that {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} may've been eaten by wild Pokémon, which {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Charmander}} didn't find funny at all and told him to stop talking that way).
* The plot of Ash and co. washing up on an island, supposedly filled with giant Pokémon could be a reference to the film ''{{wp|Mysterious Island}}'', where people get stranded on an island, with creatures, which have been genetically enhanced to be giant.
* What Jessie says about the sand in the Japanese version near the start of the episode is a reference to the poem "A Handful of Sand" by famous Japanese poet {{wp|Takuboku Ishikawa}}.
* This episode was skipped in {{pmin|Brazil}} during the 2018 rotation of the anime on RedeTV!.

===Errors===
* One of Squirtle's captions capitalizes Pokémon as "pokémon", without a capital P.
** Also, as Pikachu stumbles across Ash's Poké Balls, he says "Poké Balls" without the accented "é", making it "Poke Balls".
* When Team Rocket are about to use the brakes on the cart, they say "pull", but they push the lever.
* After all the Pokémon jumped in the moving cart, when Jessie and James are hugging Koffing and Ekans, their gloves are missing.
* When Team Rocket sees Meowth, when James and Jessie are crying, James has no pupils.
* When the Pokémon jump into the moving cart, Misty catches Squirtle and Brock catches Charmander and Bulbasaur. However, when the cart falls towards the water, Misty is shown holding Charmander while Brock is holding Squirtle and Bulbasaur.
* When James is explaining about their recent run of bad luck, Jessie's earrings and lipstick are gone.
* After the scene when the cable is about to snap, Meowth's paws are brown instead of white.
* When the destroyed robots are shown, the Blastoise robot's bottom jaw is miscolored.
* At the very end, when Brock, Ash, and Misty are seen walking a path, Ash's gloves are missing. Just afterward they reappear, only to disappear once more as the three are running towards Porta Vista.
* When showing that the Pokémon were running on the right side of the cart, when the Pokémon jumped, they were shown jumping from the left.
* When the group fell into the water, Charmander was still out of its [[Poké Ball]] and its tail was completely submerged, yet the flame did not go out. This happened again, as a Charizard, in ''[[EP134|Charizard's Burning Ambitions]]''.
** In addition, Ekans and Koffing are missing as the cart flies off the rails and falls into the water.

===Dub edits===
* [[PokéRap]]: Day 2
* In the dub, Jessie and James reveal that Ekans and Koffing were given to them as [[birthday]] and [[Christmas]] presents, respectively. Originally, they were gifts from seasonal events in Japan, in particular the Ghost Festival (''chuugen'') and Year-End gift giving (''oseibo'') events respectively.
* For subsequent dubs, the text and the Pokémon sounds were deleted and replaced with text/sounds clarifying what they're talking about for non-English speakers. For example: the Latin Spanish version was dubbed over, and the Brazilian Portuguese version was subtitled.
* The scene where Krabby and Slowpoke appear also had them with subtitles in the Japanese version as well.
* Meowth's reaction actually had two interpretations in the Japanese version. One implies that he has a master, and one states that he doesn't have a master.
* The word Oden is removed from the stand.
** Also, the scene where the Pokémon were at the Oden was not translated. The translation of the scene is as follows:
::。。。にんげんなんてさあ
:: ''...those darn humans''

::。。。にんげんなんてさあ
::''...those darn humans''

::いないいないばあ
::''Peakaboo''

::。。。にんげんなんてさあ
:: ''...those darn humans''

::わるいひとばかりじゃないんだしさあ
::''Not all people are bad''

::まあまあ。。。
::''Now now...''

::げんきをだして
::''Cheer up''

::わかる
::''I understand''

::わかるよ
::''I understand ya''

::それがよのなかさ
::''That's just how the world is''

::な、おやじ。。。
::''Hey, barkeep..''.

:* There was also a subtitle that told the time.
* In the {{pmin|Latin America}}n dub, when Meowth points out that (the mechanical) Blastoise is the evolved form of Squirtle, he pronounces it "Baltoise".
* Jessie apologizes to the Kabutops mecha when the cart's cable tripped it in the Japanese version.
* When Jessie and James were making the collect call to {{an|Giovanni}}, they originally asked to be saved and then recited the motto, only to be reminded that they had an advanced payment. Due to the way the motto was triggered in the Japanese version (in this case, Giovanni questioning their request), this was changed in the dub to simply wanting to do the introduction first, with Giovanni expressing his annoyance with their nonsense.
* The digital effect of Giovanni's voice was dub-only.

==Blurb==

As our heroes and Team Rocket beat the odds by surviving the sinking ship, they are dragged into another potentially deadly situation when they are attacked by the ferocious Pokémon, Gyarados. One Gyarados becomes many and Ash, friends and foe are swept up in a tornado landing them in various locations on an island. Ash loses Pikachu and the Poké Balls containing Charmander, Squirtle and Bulbasaur. Jessie and James from Team Rocket, who land in another remote part of the island, also lose their Pokémon. Thus both Pokémon and their masters are left searching for each other on this strange island, inhabited by gigantic Pokémon. Where could this island be?

==Plot==
After the attack caused by a group of {{p|Gyarados}} in [[EP016|the last episode]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} end up on an island, where they realize that four of Ash's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, including {{AP|Pikachu}}, are missing. On another side of the island, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are awakened by a {{p|Krabby}} to find their Pokémon, including {{MTR}}, are missing. They try to call for help in a phone booth, but they soon remember they don't have any money. On another part of the island, a separated Pikachu finds the {{ball|Poké}}s of the separated Pokémon and releases {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}. They then see a {{p|Slowpoke}} fishing in the sea with its tail. Pikachu and Charmander decide to ask for help but with little result while Bulbasaur and Squirtle relax on the beach.

While trying to find Ash and the others, Ash's Pokémon are found by {{TRT}}'s Pokémon, {{TP|James|Koffing}}, {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}} and {{MTR}}. Meowth tells Koffing and Ekans to attack Ash's Pokémon, only to find out they won't battle for him because he is not their master. They also tell him that they are not bad guys and only take bad orders from their masters, much to Meowth's dismay, leaving him unable to battle Ash's Pokémon. Each side tells the other about their missing Trainers and Koffing and Ekans get visibly upset when Bulbasaur mentions that their Trainers may have abandoned them. Pikachu immediately refutes the very idea, telling Bulbasaur that Ash would never do something like that. The two sets of Pokémon join together to find their Trainers. Meanwhile, Meowth is tied up for what he has done to Pikachu and the others in the past. While they are eating, a giant {{p|Rhydon}} frightens them. The Pokémon escape, accidentally leaving Meowth tied up. Pikachu unties Meowth so he can escape. Meowth shows no gratitude for Pikachu's action, instead pushing him and saying that he could have got out himself. At the same time, Ash, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} are being chased by a giant {{p|Zapdos}}. They soon elude it and decide to rest for the night. Ash vows to find his Pokémon no matter what. Meanwhile, Jessie and James are being chased by a huge {{p|Moltres}}. They run into a sign and are both knocked out, causing them to escape the Moltres.

The next day, Team Rocket runs back to the phone booth and Jessie makes a phone call. When James tells her that they don't have money, she says they are calling {{an|Giovanni|the boss}} by collect. They annoy him with their motto, causing him to hang up on them. Jessie and James then use a wire to get help by pulling on it while inside, hoping it will lead to the phone company. They see a {{p|Pikachu}} and decide to catch it, not realizing until it is too late that it is in fact a giant Pikachu. At the same time, Ash and company run behind a rock after being attacked by a giant {{p|Charizard}}. Meanwhile, the Pokémon, still searching for Ash and Team Rocket (and having agreed to a truce until they find them), come across a giant {{p|Blastoise}}. Squirtle is forced to ask it for directions by the other Pokémon, something that it's not too happy to do. Squirtle tries to start up a conversation with the giant Blastoise but it gets attacked by its {{m|Hydro Pump}}. They then see a {{p|Venusaur}} and Squirtle this time asks Bulbasaur to seek help from it as Squirtle thinks it's one of Bulbasaur's relatives. Bulbasaur is too afraid to ask the giant Venusaur and so says that it's an orphan and has no family, to which Squirtle decides to call it a "coward." Team Rocket, still pulling the telephone wire, are now being chased by a huge {{p|Kabutops}}. They decide to jump into a rail cart to get away. It starts moving but begins to head backwards toward the Kabutops, rather than away from it. It gets its foot tied in the wire and is dragged after Team Rocket. Then Ash and friends find the giant Pikachu, which is then knocked down because of Team Rocket and the trailing wire on the rail cart. Ash and friends fall into the cart with Team Rocket inside. Then they see their Pokémon chased by a giant Charizard, Blastoise and Venusaur. The Pokémon manage to jump to their Trainers and are at last reunited. Then the cart is sent flying into the air because of a giant loop in the rail tracks causing them to fly and crash into the giant Zapdos which they then discover to be robotic. Soon all the other giant robot Pokémon crash into each other and lie broken in a massive pile on the beach. Then the rail cart crashes into the water. A Gyarados shaped boat approaches the island. Inside, a woman introduces what appears to be tourists on the boat to Pokémon Island, however on noticing the damaged Pokémon, apologizes and then makes a call. It is revealed that the island is actually an attraction park owned by Team Rocket's boss, Giovanni, who isn't too happy with the destruction of Pokémon Land.

Ash and his friends continue on, ending up in [[Porta Vista]]. Meanwhile, the Slowpoke from earlier in the episode is still sitting on the rocks. It stands up, revealing a {{p|Shellder}} attached to its tail. The newly evolved {{p|Slowbro}} looks forward and says its name proudly.

==Major events==

* [[Jessie]] and [[James]] reveal that {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}} and {{TP|James|Koffing}} were given to them as {{wp|chūgen}} (the Ghost Festival) and {{jwp|歳暮|oseibo}} (Year-End gift giving) presents, respectively.

==Trivia==
* This is the only episode where subtitles were used to translate what the Pokémon were saying.
** In some non-English dubs, the Pokémon used human language or voice-overs and the English subtitles were kept, while in some dubs, the English subtitles were translated into subtitles of the respective languages.
* In the Japanese version of this episode, some Pokémon had their genders revealed through the subtitles: {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Squirtle}}, and {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}} were implied to be male due to using a first person pronoun almost exclusively used by males.
* This is the first episode where ''"[[Who's That Pokémon?]]"'' is different in the English version than the Japanese version.
* The picture used during ''"Who's That Pokémon?"'' in the Japanese version shows a [[Animals in the Pokémon world|real fish]] biting {{p|Slowpoke}}'s tail.
* {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and Meowth appeared to get drunk at the stand, which is backed up by somebody talking to a "barkeep" in the original episode.
* The music that plays during Pokémon Land- tour is the same that plays when [[S.S. Anne]] leaves the port in the game.
* The robotic Moltres that chased Team Rocket and the robotic Rhydon were the only giant Pokémon that were not seen to be destroyed, although Giovanni's phone call implied that they were indeed destroyed as well.
**[[Island of the Giant Pokémon (book)|The book adaptation]], however, does have the robotic Rhydon being tripped alongside the other robotic Pokémon as well.
* Even though {{Ash}} was never shown to find {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}'s [[Poké Ball]]s, he doesn't seem to have lost them.
* Slowbro says "Slowpoke" at the end of the episode, before realising it had evolved. This implies that even Pokémon without training are able to say some things that aren't their own name, at the very least the names of their previous forms.
* This episode is featured on ''Volume 4: Squirtle'' from [[Viz Media]]'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 1}} series.
* The book ''{{book|Island of the Giant Pokémon}}'' is partially based on this episode.
* More Pokémon's [[Kanto Pokérap|Pokérap]] images come from this episode than any other episode, providing the images for {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Rhydon}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, and {{p|Slowbro}}. Out of these, only Slowbro and Meowth were actual Pokémon.
* In India, when this episode aired on CN, the Pokémon were given voice overs even though the subtitles were kept. When it was aired on Hungama, the Pokémon did not receive voice overs even though the subtitles were removed. This made it difficult to understand the Pokémon speech.
* Despite Ekans explicitly stating that there was no such thing as an evil Pokémon in this episode, future episodes nixed that idea, most notably {{p|Togepi}} in ''[[DP142|Where No Togepi Has Gone Before!]]'' and {{p|Malamar}} in ''[[XY019|A Conspiracy to Conquer]]''.
* This episode contains one of the few instances of Pokémon eating humans being mentioned (by {{AP|Squirtle}}, who jokingly claimed, that {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} may've been eaten by wild Pokémon, which {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Charmander}} didn't find funny at all and told him to stop talking that way).
* The plot of Ash and co. washing up on an island, supposedly filled with giant Pokémon could be a reference to the film ''{{wp|Mysterious Island}}'', where people get stranded on an island, with creatures, which have been genetically enhanced to be giant.
* What Jessie says about the sand in the Japanese version near the start of the episode is a reference to the poem "A Handful of Sand" by famous Japanese poet {{wp|Takuboku Ishikawa}}.
* This episode was skipped in {{pmin|Brazil}} during the 2018 rotation of the anime on RedeTV!.

===Errors===
* One of Squirtle's captions capitalizes Pokémon as "pokémon", without a capital P.
** Also, as Pikachu stumbles across Ash's Poké Balls, he says "Poké Balls" without the accented "é", making it "Poke Balls".
* When Team Rocket are about to use the brakes on the cart, they say "pull", but they push the lever.
* After all the Pokémon jumped in the moving cart, when Jessie and James are hugging Koffing and Ekans, their gloves are missing.
* When Team Rocket sees Meowth, when James and Jessie are crying, James has no pupils.
* When the Pokémon jump into the moving cart, Misty catches Squirtle and Brock catches Charmander and Bulbasaur. However, when the cart falls towards the water, Misty is shown holding Charmander while Brock is holding Squirtle and Bulbasaur.
* When James is explaining about their recent run of bad luck, Jessie's earrings and lipstick are gone.
* After the scene when the cable is about to snap, Meowth's paws are brown instead of white.
* When the destroyed robots are shown, the Blastoise robot's bottom jaw is miscolored.
* At the very end, when Brock, Ash, and Misty are seen walking a path, Ash's gloves are missing. Just afterward they reappear, only to disappear once more as the three are running towards Porta Vista.
* When showing that the Pokémon were running on the right side of the cart, when the Pokémon jumped, they were shown jumping from the left.
* When the group fell into the water, Charmander was still out of its [[Poké Ball]] and its tail was completely submerged, yet the flame did not go out. This happened again, as a Charizard, in ''[[EP134|Charizard's Burning Ambitions]]''.
** In addition, Ekans and Koffing are missing as the cart flies off the rails and falls into the water.

===Dub edits===
* [[PokéRap]]: Day 2
* In the dub, Jessie and James reveal that Ekans and Koffing were given to them as [[birthday]] and [[Christmas]] presents, respectively. Originally, they were gifts from seasonal events in Japan, in particular the Ghost Festival (''chuugen'') and Year-End gift giving (''oseibo'') events respectively.
* For subsequent dubs, the text and the Pokémon sounds were deleted and replaced with text/sounds clarifying what they're talking about for non-English speakers. For example: the Latin Spanish version was dubbed over, and the Brazilian Portuguese version was subtitled.
* The scene where Krabby and Slowpoke appear also had them with subtitles in the Japanese version as well.
* Meowth's reaction actually had two interpretations in the Japanese version. One implies that he has a master, and one states that he doesn't have a master.
* The word Oden is removed from the stand.
** Also, the scene where the Pokémon were at the Oden was not translated. The translation of the scene is as follows:
::。。。にんげんなんてさあ
:: ''...those darn humans''

::。。。にんげんなんてさあ
::''...those darn humans''

::いないいないばあ
::''Peakaboo''

::。。。にんげんなんてさあ
:: ''...those darn humans''

::わるいひとばかりじゃないんだしさあ
::''Not all people are bad''

::まあまあ。。。
::''Now now...''

::げんきをだして
::''Cheer up''

::わかる
::''I understand''

::わかるよ
::''I understand ya''

::それがよのなかさ
::''That's just how the world is''

::な、おやじ。。。
::''Hey, barkeep..''.

:* There was also a subtitle that told the time.
* In the {{pmin|Latin America}}n dub, when Meowth points out that (the mechanical) Blastoise is the evolved form of Squirtle, he pronounces it "Baltoise".
* Jessie apologizes to the Kabutops mecha when the cart's cable tripped it in the Japanese version.
* When Jessie and James were making the collect call to {{an|Giovanni}}, they originally asked to be saved and then recited the motto, only to be reminded that they had an advanced payment. Due to the way the motto was triggered in the Japanese version (in this case, Giovanni questioning their request), this was changed in the dub to simply wanting to do the introduction first, with Giovanni expressing his annoyance with their nonsense.
* The digital effect of Giovanni's voice was dub-only.

Pokémon Trading Cards series 3

2017-10-13T21:00:54Z

LHakaLH: /* Die-cut Embossed Cards */

{{incomplete|2=Missing die-cut card images}}
'''Pokémon Trading Cards series 3''' was a set of Pokémon-themed trading cards manufactured by [[Topps]] in 2000. There were 72 cards in total: 34 Pokémon cards, 12 "Heroes & Villains" cards, 19 episode cards, 6 puzzle cards, and a checklist card. Each of these 72 cards also had two foil card versions (silver and rainbow). In addition, there were 27 bonus "chase cards" not included on the checklist, including 12 die-cut embossed evolution cards, 10 pop-up cards, and 5 clear cards.

Cards were sold in randomly distributed packets of five or eight<ref>[http://www.nslists.com/poketv3.htm Pokémon TV Series 3 (Jeff Allender's House of Checklist)]</ref>. One card in each packet would be a randomly chosen foil card.

| Goldeen's tail fin billows out like a ballroom dress — hence its nickname, the Water Queen. In "Pokémon Emergency" Ash and Pikachu prepare to defend the Viridian City Pokémon Center from the thieving Team Rocket. Misty steps forward, chooses a random Poké Ball from the center and lets loose Goldeen. Since water Pokémon can't battle on land, an embarrassed Misty calls it right back, while Team Rocket laughs at the mistake of our valiant heroine.
