'''The Pokémon Wiki''', formerly known as '''The Pokémon Encyclopedia''', is a Pokémon-centered wiki hosted on the website {{wp|Wikia}}.

==History==
The Pokémon Wiki was created in January 2005 by Jellochuu, who is no longer an active member of the wiki. The wiki's current bureaucrat is Slayingthehalcyon, who stayed when the wikis forked.

Over the course of its history, the wiki has gone through a number of logo changes and a name change. It currently has over 6,000 articles on various aspects of the Pokémon franchise.

After a bit of discussion, the Pokémon Wiki officially split, having many users leave Wikia to create a new wiki under Curse servers in association with [[Marriland]], under the name of [[Marriland Wiki]], while other users stayed on the Wikia wiki. This fork lead to another Pokémon-centered wiki being formed. With the new wiki, users decided to either stay on the Wikia hosted wiki or move to the Marriland Wiki, however some of the administrators are editing both wikis for the time being.

== Current staff ==
The Pokémon Wiki currently has two active bureaucrats:
*Rainbow Shifter
*Slayingthehalcyon

The Pokémon Wiki currently has two active administrators:
*Energy X
*Shockstorm

The Pokémon Wiki currently has two semi-active administrators:
*Yoponot
*Remaai

'''Iris''' (Japanese: '''アイリス''' ''Iris'') is a girl from the [[Unova]] region who is a current {{ashfr|traveling companion}} of {{Ash}}.

==In the anime==
===History===
[[File:Young Iris.png|thumb|250px|left|Younger Iris]]
Iris was born and raised in the [[Village of Dragons]] and would spend her time as a little girl playing with the wild Pokémon that lived in the forest just outside the village. She had learned to be quite skilled in tree climbing, as well as tending and caring to different Pokémon. One day she met a wild {{TP|Iris|Drilbur}} that had injured a {{p|Patrat}} and stolen its food. Angered, she sought justice for the Drilbur's deed and challenged it. After countless defeats, she finally managed to out maneuver the Mole Pokémon and get it caught in some vines dangling just over a cliff. After coming to its rescue, the two became good friends and began training together. After many victories against different types of Trainers, Drilbur evolved into an Excadrill. The two then got the opportunity to meet [[Drayden]], a Dragon Master, who praised Iris for her skill in battle. When he asked who was teaching her how to battle she responded that she was teaching herself with the help of the Pokémon she had befriended in the village. Brimming with confidence, she then challenged Drayden to a battle. However, Drayden's {{p|Haxorus}} was more powerful than Iris had anticipated and Excadrill was easily defeated. After suffering defeat and becoming distrustful of its Trainer, Excadrill then closed himself off to Iris, rarely opening up, and never showing emotion.

Not long after those events, Iris left for [[Opelucid City]] to attend school at the Opelucid Academy. When she was not in school, she stayed with [[Martha]] in a dorm. These were very difficult times for Iris, though. She struggled in school, and failed to make any friends or interact with any of the other students at the academy. Iris also didn't feel compatible with the urban city life. She tried to take her mind off the city by climbing the radio tower for a view of the mountains, but always got into trouble with [[Officer Jenny]]. All of these hardships in the city made her homesick, so she often spent her spare time writing to her friend [[Shannon]]. Eventually, after losing a battle at school, Iris could not stand this life anymore and dropped out. Leaving her partner Pokémon, {{p|Fraxure}}, behind, Iris returned to the Village of Dragons.

Years passed, and Iris was called upon by the [[Elder|village elder]]. She was to start a journey with a newly hatched {{TP|Iris|Axew}} and raise it to become a full-fledged Haxorus. She accepted this trial, and set off on her journey, hoping to someday become a Dragon Master herself. Some time after these events, she witnessed a storm caused by {{p|Zekrom}} during the events of ''[[BW001|In The Shadow of Zekrom!]]''. She missed actually encountering the Deep Black Pokémon, and continued on her journey, eventually meeting [[Ash Ketchum]] the very next day when he accidentally tried to catch her, thinking she was a Pokémon. The two had a rocky start, often finding reasons to argue and occasionally calling each other names. However they kept each other company and Iris even stayed to watch his first Gym battle in ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders! Team Threats!]]''. After the battle one of the Gym Leaders, {{an|Cilan}}, had decided to travel alongside Ash, and noted that the three of them make a good team. So Iris decided to officially become their traveling companion.

In ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is on Axew!]]'' Iris decided she would begin using her new friends to help train her Axew, so she asked Cilan to battle her to help get her started. It was then that she revealed her Axew knew {{m|Dragon Rage}} but hadn't yet mastered how to use it. She later opened up to Cilan and Ash and told them about her hometown, and how she got Axew in the first place. After she finished her story, the group realized Axew had gone missing, and found him stuck in the horns of a {{p|Scolipede}}. They failed to calm the raging Pokémon, so Iris called upon her Excadrill for help. Unfortunately, Excadrill was still closing himself off from Iris, but Excadrill still took care of the Scolipede after Iris had saved Axew herself, when the Scolipede kicked him into a boulder. With everything calmed down, Cilan approached Iris and reassured her to do things at her own pace and not worry too much, and that someday Axew and Excadrill will become even more powerful and loyal to her.
[[File:Iris Swinging.png|thumb|Iris swinging on vines|250px]]
In ''[[BW011|A Home for Dwebble!]]'' she revealed that she knows how to make herbal remedies to heal sick Pokémon when [[Cilan's Pansage]] got hit with a rock and caught a fever. This skill became quite handy throughout her journey whenever the group was low on medication and too far from a Pokémon Center. In ''[[BW014|A Night in the Nacrene Museum!]]'' she claimed that she has an acute "{{wp|Extrasensory perception|sixth sense}}" when she felt the presence of a spirit haunting the museum. It later turned out to be a {{p|Yamask}} who merely wanted its mask returned to it. However, she was still sure in her abilities in ''[[BW018|Sewaddle and Burgh in Pinwheel Forest!]]'' when the group got lost in [[Pinwheel Forest]].

Iris got separated from the group in ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'' after Axew tried to befriend a wild {{TP|Iris|Emolga}} who had narrowly avoided being smothered by {{an|Bianca}} who had been accompanying the group after Ash won his third Badge. The three of them end up being attacked by a swarm of {{p|Swoobat}} and eventually rescued by Ash and Pikachu. The Emolga had grown fond of Iris and accepted her as her Trainer, earning Iris another Pokémon. In ''[[BW025|Emolga and the New Volt Switch!]]'', Bianca offered to battle the newly caught Emolga, however things didn't go as planned when they found out that Emolga was fairly lazy and used {{m|Volt Switch}} to avoid battles. This did not discourage Iris too much as she accepted the challenge of raising Emolga to hopefully become a skilled battler.

In ''[[BW027|The Dragon Master's Path!]]'', the group met a young girl named [[Emmy]] who was having trouble with her {{p|Druddigon}}. Iris noticed the cause of the Pokémon's rage was a wire wrapped around its ankle, and managed to calm it down by removing it. Impressed with her knowledge of {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon, Emmy formally introduced herself and admitted to being a novice. Iris then offered to train her in the ways of Dragon-type Pokémon, and revealed her dream of becoming a Dragon Master some day.
[[File:Iris Wings.png|thumb|200px|left|Iris after winning the Club Battle tournament]]
In ''[[BW033|Iris and Excadrill Against the Dragon Buster!]]'', Iris was challenged by [[Georgia]], a Dragon Buster. Her Axew was easily defeated by Georgia's {{p|Beartic}}. Georgia criticized her for not owning more Dragon types and Iris decided to call on her Excadrill who still wouldn't obey her. Again, the battle resulted in a loss for Iris. She later explained that the resulting loss to Drayden when she was younger is what caused Excadrill to disobey her. But after a night of bonding with Excadrill, he regained his confidence and learned {{m|Focus Blast}}. Iris re-challenges Georgia with Excadrill and the battle resulted in a draw.

Iris competed in the [[Club Battle]] along with multiple other Trainers, including her rival, Georgia. Her first battle was against [[Jimmy Ray]] and his {{p|Watchog}} in ''[[BW040|Cilan Versus Trip, Ash Versus Georgia!!]]'', which Iris easily won with her {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}. She then battled against [[Stephan]] and his {{TP|Stephan|Sawk}} in ''[[BW041|The Club Battle Hearts of Fury: Emolga Versus Sawk!]]'', which she also managed to win with Emolga. She then went up against [[Luke]] and his {{p|Golett}} in [[BW042|the next episode]], using {{TP|Iris|Axew}}. In the battle Axew learned {{m|Outrage}}, which he used to defeat Golett. In the final round, Iris went up against {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}}, while Iris used her {{TP|Iris|Excadrill}}. After a long fight, Excadrill managed to defeat Pikachu, allowing Iris to win the tournament, along with a full set of [[Wing]]s.

Her fear of Ice has been put to the test in some episodes, like in ''[[BW079|Caution: Icy Battle Conditions!]]'', where she entered a cold Gym and saw her friend facing several Ice types. Some time later in order to escape a building filled with {{p|Ferroseed}} moss she had to command her rival's Ice-type Pokémon when her Pokémon other were unable to help.

After hearing a story of a Dragon type intentionally damaging a local power plant causing a blackout in [[Undella Town]], she decided to investigate this herself. Later she encountered a unusually grumpy and hostile Dragonite that was just resting to recover from a injury. Upon seeing a mob of Trainers ready to take the Dragonite down, she decided to shield it until her friends found the footage proving that the whole situation was a misunderstanding. Iris happily accepted when the Dragonite offered it joining her party.

[[File:Young Iris Opelucid School.png|thumb|250px|Iris at the Opelucid Academy]]
In the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]], she decided to settle things with Georgia fighting her newly-obtained Dragonite against the latter's Beartic. However, the Pokémon didn't take any of its Trainer's orders, continuing Iris's streak of [[Obedience|disobedient]] Pokémon. Despite knowing the risks, Iris kept using Dragonite in all of the rounds. However, her over-confidence when Dragonite began obeying her was later her downfall when a single powerful attack put Dragonite in a rampage, leaving it vulnerable to defeat and eliminating her.

After a long time away, Iris returned to the Village of Dragons in ''[[BW100|A Village Homecoming!]]''. After having several flashbacks of her times in before traveling with Ash, she was given the chance to battle Drayden again, this time in a Gym battle. When they arrived in Opelucid City in ''[[BW101|Drayden Versus Iris: Past, Present, and Future!]]'', Iris revealed her bad experience there. Once again, she got in trouble with Officer Jenny for climbing the radio tower. While Officer Jenny was questioning her, she met up with Martha again. After that she and Ash and Cilan went to the [[Opelucid Gym]] to battle Drayden. Although she did improve, managing to defeat his Haxorus, she lost again. This time however, her Pokémon didn't appear sad despite their defeat and after the battle she promised to get stronger. As a result, Drayden told the village elder to consider Iris as Opelucid City Gym Leader.

==Character==
[[File:Iris fear.png|thumb|250px|Iris's fear of {{type|Ice}} Pokémon]]
Iris is said to be a wild girl who likes to swing on vines and eat berries. Her Pokémon friend {{TP|Iris|Axew}} travels with her in her hair instead of inside a [[Poké Ball]]. She seems to be very hyper in occasions such as climbing up trees very quickly. Iris is very adventurous and bold. She is a quick thinker such as in ''[[BW003|A Sandile Gusher of Change!]]'' she saved {{Ash}} from falling into hot water. This is again shown in ''[[BW012|Here Comes the Trubbish Squad!]]'' and ''[[BW013|Minccino-Neat and Tidy!]]'' where she is quickly able to evade oncoming danger when Ash and Cilan can't. On some occasions, she becomes invasive with some Pokémon such as [[Ash's Pikachu]] which normally causes the Pokémon to attack her.

She can also be a little shy and nervous at times towards humans, as seen by her evasive and distinct relationship towards Ash after their first meeting. On occasion Iris would leave Ash's company for a while before unexpectedly reappearing later, usually surprising Ash in the process. This pattern would continue until she was formally asked by Ash and Cilan to join them on their journey. Also, she wasn't entirely trusting of Ash when it came to the safety of her Pokémon during battles and often kept secrets from him and Cilan. However, as their time together expands, she slowly begins to open up and trust the two of them in battles as well as revealing her dreams and ambitions.

Iris is an experienced Trainer and has been in many battles in the past. She has been portrayed as a sort of prodigy in the [[Village of Dragons]], and while there she had built up a 99-win streak with her {{TP|Iris|Excadrill}} before meeting Dragon Master [[Drayden]]. These experiences seem to have affected her, as she has a high view of herself and her abilities. Because of this, Iris typically seems to think of Ash as a little kid and often treats him like a rookie Trainer when he makes simple mistakes, despite that he too has had many adventures and accomplishments in the past. Her view of Ash seems to stem from their first meeting. Despite this, she is not against cheering him on during Gym and normal Trainer battles.

Iris adores most Pokémon, often hugging them upon first meeting; however, she has a particularly strong understanding of {{t|Dragon}} types and tends to be very excitable around them in particular, not showing fear even against a rampaging {{p|Druddigon}}. Because of this strong passion, she aims to become a Dragon Master like so many from her hometown. The one type she doesn't like is the {{t|Ice}} type, due to the fact that Ice-type attacks are super effective against Dragon-type Pokémon. [[Trip]] mentions that her fear of Ice types based on that is irrational, as Dragon-type moves are super effective against Dragon-type Pokémon as well. Iris shrugged this off, however, and mentions that she also has a fear of the cold. Iris is willing to overcome this fear, however, as shown when challenged by Georgia's Beartic.

==Pokémon==
Despite Iris aiming to be a {{t|Dragon}} Master, only half of her Pokémon are Dragons, and [[Iris's Excadrill|her first one]] is not. Like Ash, she tends to capture Pokémon she befriends or want to travel with her regardless of their type as shown when she wanted to add a {{TP|Ash|Tepig}} and a {{TP|Ash|Oshawott}} on her team before both wanting to stay with Ash.

==Trivia==

[[File:Iris catches a Pokémon.png|250px|right|thumb|Iris after catching a Pokémon]]
* Iris is so far the only main character to keep her Japanese name in the English dub of the anime.
* Iris is Ash's only female traveling companion whose Japanese name does not contain the kana '''カ''' ''ka'', and the only traveling companion whose Japanese name is comprised of more than three kana. She is also the first to have a western name instead of a traditional Japanese name.
* Iris is Ash's only female traveling companion to not have owned a bike and have it destroyed by {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* Silhouettes of Iris and {{an|Cilan}} were shown after [[DP183]] aired on July 1, 2010. The two were officially revealed during a trailer for the anime shown on [[Pokémon Sunday]] exactly one month later.
* All of the Pokémon that Iris owns joined her willingly rather than being caught in a battle.

'''Iris''' (Japanese: '''アイリス''' ''Iris'') is a girl from the [[Unova]] region who is a current {{ashfr|traveling companion}} of {{Ash}}.

==In the anime==
===History===
[[File:Young Iris.png|thumb|250px|left|Younger Iris]]
Iris was born and raised in the [[Village of Dragons]] and would spend her time as a little girl playing with the wild Pokémon that lived in the forest just outside the village. She had learned to be quite skilled in tree climbing, as well as tending and caring to different Pokémon. One day she met a wild {{TP|Iris|Drilbur}} that had injured a {{p|Patrat}} and stolen its food. Angered, she sought justice for the Drilbur's deed and challenged it. After countless defeats, she finally managed to out maneuver the Mole Pokémon and get it caught in some vines dangling just over a cliff. After coming to its rescue, the two became good friends and began training together. After many victories against different types of Trainers, Drilbur evolved into an Excadrill. The two then got the opportunity to meet [[Drayden]], a Dragon Master, who praised Iris for her skill in battle. When he asked who was teaching her how to battle she responded that she was teaching herself with the help of the Pokémon she had befriended in the village. Brimming with confidence, she then challenged Drayden to a battle. However, Drayden's {{p|Haxorus}} was more powerful than Iris had anticipated and Excadrill was easily defeated. After suffering defeat and becoming distrustful of its Trainer, Excadrill then closed himself off to Iris, rarely opening up, and never showing emotion.

Not long after those events, Iris left for [[Opelucid City]] to attend school at the Opelucid Academy. When she was not in school, she stayed with [[Martha]] in a dorm. These were very difficult times for Iris, though. She struggled in school, and failed to make any friends or interact with any of the other students at the academy. Iris also didn't feel compatible with the urban city life. She tried to take her mind off the city by climbing the radio tower for a view of the mountains, but always got into trouble with [[Officer Jenny]]. All of these hardships in the city made her homesick, so she often spent her spare time writing to her friend [[Shannon]]. Eventually, after losing a battle at school, Iris could not stand this life anymore and dropped out. Leaving her partner Pokémon, {{p|Fraxure}}, behind, Iris returned to the Village of Dragons.

Years passed, and Iris was called upon by the [[Elder|village elder]]. She was to start a journey with a newly hatched {{TP|Iris|Axew}} and raise it to become a full-fledged Haxorus. She accepted this trial, and set off on her journey, hoping to someday become a Dragon Master herself. Some time after these events, she witnessed a storm caused by {{p|Zekrom}} during the events of ''[[BW001|In The Shadow of Zekrom!]]''. She missed actually encountering the Deep Black Pokémon, and continued on her journey, eventually meeting [[Ash Ketchum]] the very next day when he accidentally tried to catch her, thinking she was a Pokémon. The two had a rocky start, often finding reasons to argue and occasionally calling each other names. However they kept each other company and Iris even stayed to watch his first Gym battle in ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders! Team Threats!]]''. After the battle one of the Gym Leaders, {{an|Cilan}}, had decided to travel alongside Ash, and noted that the three of them make a good team. So Iris decided to officially become their traveling companion.

In ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is on Axew!]]'' Iris decided she would begin using her new friends to help train her Axew, so she asked Cilan to battle her to help get her started. It was then that she revealed her Axew knew {{m|Dragon Rage}} but hadn't yet mastered how to use it. She later opened up to Cilan and Ash and told them about her hometown, and how she got Axew in the first place. After she finished her story, the group realized Axew had gone missing, and found him stuck in the horns of a {{p|Scolipede}}. They failed to calm the raging Pokémon, so Iris called upon her Excadrill for help. Unfortunately, Excadrill was still closing himself off from Iris, but Excadrill still took care of the Scolipede after Iris had saved Axew herself, when the Scolipede kicked him into a boulder. With everything calmed down, Cilan approached Iris and reassured her to do things at her own pace and not worry too much, and that someday Axew and Excadrill will become even more powerful and loyal to her.
[[File:Iris Swinging.png|thumb|Iris swinging on vines|250px]]
In ''[[BW011|A Home for Dwebble!]]'' she revealed that she knows how to make herbal remedies to heal sick Pokémon when [[Cilan's Pansage]] got hit with a rock and caught a fever. This skill became quite handy throughout her journey whenever the group was low on medication and too far from a Pokémon Center. In ''[[BW014|A Night in the Nacrene Museum!]]'' she claimed that she has an acute "{{wp|Extrasensory perception|sixth sense}}" when she felt the presence of a spirit haunting the museum. It later turned out to be a {{p|Yamask}} who merely wanted its mask returned to it. However, she was still sure in her abilities in ''[[BW018|Sewaddle and Burgh in Pinwheel Forest!]]'' when the group got lost in [[Pinwheel Forest]].

Iris got separated from the group in ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'' after Axew tried to befriend a wild {{TP|Iris|Emolga}} who had narrowly avoided being smothered by {{an|Bianca}} who had been accompanying the group after Ash won his third Badge. The three of them end up being attacked by a swarm of {{p|Swoobat}} and eventually rescued by Ash and Pikachu. The Emolga had grown fond of Iris and accepted her as her Trainer, earning Iris another Pokémon. In ''[[BW025|Emolga and the New Volt Switch!]]'', Bianca offered to battle the newly caught Emolga, however things didn't go as planned when they found out that Emolga was fairly lazy and used {{m|Volt Switch}} to avoid battles. This did not discourage Iris too much as she accepted the challenge of raising Emolga to hopefully become a skilled battler.

In ''[[BW027|The Dragon Master's Path!]]'', the group met a young girl named [[Emmy]] who was having trouble with her {{p|Druddigon}}. Iris noticed the cause of the Pokémon's rage was a wire wrapped around its ankle, and managed to calm it down by removing it. Impressed with her knowledge of {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon, Emmy formally introduced herself and admitted to being a novice. Iris then offered to train her in the ways of Dragon-type Pokémon, and revealed her dream of becoming a Dragon Master some day.
[[File:Iris Wings.png|thumb|200px|left|Iris after winning the Club Battle tournament]]
In ''[[BW033|Iris and Excadrill Against the Dragon Buster!]]'', Iris was challenged by [[Georgia]], a Dragon Buster. Her Axew was easily defeated by Georgia's {{p|Beartic}}. Georgia criticized her for not owning more Dragon types and Iris decided to call on her Excadrill who still wouldn't obey her. Again, the battle resulted in a loss for Iris. She later explained that the resulting loss to Drayden when she was younger is what caused Excadrill to disobey her. But after a night of bonding with Excadrill, he regained his confidence and learned {{m|Focus Blast}}. Iris re-challenges Georgia with Excadrill and the battle resulted in a draw.

Iris competed in the [[Club Battle]] along with multiple other Trainers, including her rival, Georgia. Her first battle was against [[Jimmy Ray]] and his {{p|Watchog}} in ''[[BW040|Cilan Versus Trip, Ash Versus Georgia!!]]'', which Iris easily won with her {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}. She then battled against [[Stephan]] and his {{TP|Stephan|Sawk}} in ''[[BW041|The Club Battle Hearts of Fury: Emolga Versus Sawk!]]'', which she also managed to win with Emolga. She then went up against [[Luke]] and his {{p|Golett}} in [[BW042|the next episode]], using {{TP|Iris|Axew}}. In the battle Axew learned {{m|Outrage}}, which he used to defeat Golett. In the final round, Iris went up against {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}}, while Iris used her {{TP|Iris|Excadrill}}. After a long fight, Excadrill managed to defeat Pikachu, allowing Iris to win the tournament, along with a full set of [[Wing]]s.

Her fear of Ice has been put to the test in some episodes, like in ''[[BW079|Caution: Icy Battle Conditions!]]'', where she entered a cold Gym and saw her friend facing several Ice types. Some time later in order to escape a building filled with {{p|Ferroseed}} moss she had to command her rival's Ice-type Pokémon when her Pokémon other were unable to help.

After hearing a story of a Dragon type intentionally damaging a local power plant causing a blackout in [[Undella Town]], she decided to investigate this herself. Later she encountered a unusually grumpy and hostile Dragonite that was just resting to recover from a injury. Upon seeing a mob of Trainers ready to take the Dragonite down, she decided to shield it until her friends found the footage proving that the whole situation was a misunderstanding. Iris happily accepted when the Dragonite offered it joining her party.

[[File:Young Iris Opelucid School.png|thumb|250px|Iris at the Opelucid Academy]]
In the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]], she decided to settle things with Georgia fighting her newly-obtained Dragonite against the latter's Beartic. However, the Pokémon didn't take any of its Trainer's orders, continuing Iris's streak of [[Obedience|disobedient]] Pokémon. Despite knowing the risks, Iris kept using Dragonite in all of the rounds. However, her over-confidence when Dragonite began obeying her was later her downfall when a single powerful attack put Dragonite in a rampage, leaving it vulnerable to defeat and eliminating her.

After a long time away, Iris returned to the Village of Dragons in ''[[BW100|A Village Homecoming!]]''. After having several flashbacks of her times in before traveling with Ash, she was given the chance to battle Drayden again, this time in a Gym battle. When they arrived in Opelucid City in ''[[BW101|Drayden Versus Iris: Past, Present, and Future!]]'', Iris revealed her bad experience there. Once again, she got in trouble with Officer Jenny for climbing the radio tower. While Officer Jenny was questioning her, she met up with Martha again. After that she and Ash and Cilan went to the [[Opelucid Gym]] to battle Drayden. Although she did improve, managing to defeat his Haxorus, she lost again. This time however, her Pokémon didn't appear sad despite their defeat and after the battle she promised to get stronger. As a result, Drayden told the village elder to consider Iris as Opelucid City Gym Leader.

==Character==
[[File:Iris fear.png|thumb|250px|Iris's fear of {{type|Ice}} Pokémon]]
Iris is said to be a wild girl who likes to swing on vines and eat berries. Her Pokémon friend {{TP|Iris|Axew}} travels with her in her hair instead of inside a [[Poké Ball]]. She seems to be very hyper in occasions such as climbing up trees very quickly. Iris is very adventurous and bold. She is a quick thinker such as in ''[[BW003|A Sandile Gusher of Change!]]'' she saved {{Ash}} from falling into hot water. This is again shown in ''[[BW012|Here Comes the Trubbish Squad!]]'' and ''[[BW013|Minccino-Neat and Tidy!]]'' where she is quickly able to evade oncoming danger when Ash and Cilan can't. On some occasions, she becomes invasive with some Pokémon such as [[Ash's Pikachu]] which normally causes the Pokémon to attack her.

She can also be a little shy and nervous at times towards humans, as seen by her evasive and distinct relationship towards Ash after their first meeting. On occasion Iris would leave Ash's company for a while before unexpectedly reappearing later, usually surprising Ash in the process. This pattern would continue until she was formally asked by Ash and Cilan to join them on their journey. Also, she wasn't entirely trusting of Ash when it came to the safety of her Pokémon during battles and often kept secrets from him and Cilan. However, as their time together expands, she slowly begins to open up and trust the two of them in battles as well as revealing her dreams and ambitions.

Iris is an experienced Trainer and has been in many battles in the past. She has been portrayed as a sort of prodigy in the [[Village of Dragons]], and while there she had built up a 99-win streak with her {{TP|Iris|Excadrill}} before meeting Dragon Master [[Drayden]]. These experiences seem to have affected her, as she has a high view of herself and her abilities. Because of this, Iris typically seems to think of Ash as a little kid and often treats him like a rookie Trainer when he makes simple mistakes, despite that he too has had many adventures and accomplishments in the past. Her view of Ash seems to stem from their first meeting. Despite this, she is not against cheering him on during Gym and normal Trainer battles.

Iris adores most Pokémon, often hugging them upon first meeting; however, she has a particularly strong understanding of {{t|Dragon}} types and tends to be very excitable around them in particular, not showing fear even against a rampaging {{p|Druddigon}}. Because of this strong passion, she aims to become a Dragon Master like so many from her hometown. The one type she doesn't like is the {{t|Ice}} type, due to the fact that Ice-type attacks are super effective against Dragon-type Pokémon. [[Trip]] mentions that her fear of Ice types based on that is irrational, as Dragon-type moves are super effective against Dragon-type Pokémon as well. Iris shrugged this off, however, and mentions that she also has a fear of the cold. Iris is willing to overcome this fear, however, as shown when challenged by Georgia's Beartic.

==Pokémon==
Despite Iris aiming to be a {{t|Dragon}} Master, only half of her Pokémon are Dragons, and [[Iris's Excadrill|her first one]] is not. Like Ash, she tends to capture Pokémon she befriends or want to travel with her regardless of their type as shown when she wanted to add a {{TP|Ash|Tepig}} and a {{TP|Ash|Oshawott}} on her team before both wanting to stay with Ash.

==Trivia==

[[File:Iris catches a Pokémon.png|250px|right|thumb|Iris after catching a Pokémon]]
* Iris is so far the only main character to keep her Japanese name in the English dub of the anime.
* Iris is Ash's only female traveling companion whose Japanese name does not contain the kana '''カ''' ''ka'', and the only traveling companion whose Japanese name is comprised of more than three kana. She is also the first to have a western name instead of a traditional Japanese name.
* Iris is Ash's only female traveling companion to not have owned a bike and have it destroyed by {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* Silhouettes of Iris and {{an|Cilan}} were shown after [[DP183]] aired on July 1, 2010. The two were officially revealed during a trailer for the anime shown on [[Pokémon Sunday]] exactly one month later.
* All of the Pokémon that Iris owns joined her willingly rather than being caught in a battle.

'''Rocco''' (Japanese: '''ロック''' ''Rock'') is one of the main characters in the [[Phantom Thief Pokémon 7]] {{pkmn|manga}} and its sequel, [[Phantom Thief! Pokémon V]]. He considers himself a mysterious thief and is [[Hiori|Pokémon 7's]] self-proclaimed [[rival]]. He likes to call himself "Rock-sama" in the original version, which can be seen as reflecting his proud and stuck-up nature, opting in the official translation for Grand Master Rocco. Though he proclaims to be powerful, he is truly a coward, fleeing rather than battling or allowing his Magmortar to battle without him.

He is seen as being a womanizer, as he tries to dissuade women from battling him by flirting with them, to no avail. He also seems to have a crush on [[Lily (Pokémon 7)|Lily]], calling her ''Lily-chan'', which annoys Hiori.

==History==
===Pokémon 7===
Rocco sends a letter of challenge to Hiori, to which Hiori happily accepts. Hiori and team enter Rocco's lair and, using his Pokémon's moves, solves various puzzles to open doors. One set of doors is guarded by his {{p|Magmortar}}, whose strength and [[Ability]], {{a|Flame Body}}, prove it to be a formidable foe. It uses its powerful {{m|Flamethrower}} to gain ground and [[Hiori's Lucario]] narrowly dodges its {{m|Fire Punch}} with {{m|Detect}}. It releases a {{m|SmokeScreen}} to blind Lucario and Hiori. However, Lucario sees right through it and finds Magmortar because of his Aura sensing ability. Using his burn as an advantage, Lucario hits it with a powerful {{m|Facade}} and [[fainting|knocks it out]]. The duo find and enter Rocco's room, where they introduce themselves. After showing his true colors to Hiori, he escapes with his {{p|Gardevoir|Gardevoir's}} {{m|Teleport}}, leaving the annoyed duo.

Rocco joins up with Hiori after hearing about the Pokémon thefts, believing ''he'' is the only one allowed to steal Pokémon. Later, after Hiori's confrontation with his twin, Lily, Hiori tells the story of how he was separated from his sister and why he must help her. Rocco doesn't seem to care until he imagines what Lily currently looks like, to which he then happily obliges to help Hiori as long as he gets the chance to meet her.

Rocco later helps when Hiori is battling Lily. He comes to the two's aid, trying to dissuade Lily from fighting with a rose and his charm, but fails miserably. He runs away while Lily and {{p|Mismagius}} chase them. Rocco does not fight back, trying to not hit Lily, and instead uses his Gardevoir's {{m|Secret Power}} to put Mismagius to sleep, breaking Lily's {{m|Hypnosis}}, to Hiori and Lucario's surprise. This was only temporary, as Mismagius woke up and hypnotized her yet again.

Rocco later helped in the final battle where, with his power, along with Lily's, Hiori's, Lucario's, and the rest of Hiori's team, was merged into one, powerful {{m|Aura Sphere}}, used by Lucario, to calm a rampaging Darkrai awakened by the Galactic Leader.
[[File:Rocco PV.png|thumb|right|200px|Rocco in Pokémon V]]
He is shown to be traveling the world with Lily and Hiori, completing missions.

===Pokémon V===
In this sequel manga, Rocco is revealed to be training two new Phantom Thieves, Pokémon V and K.

It may have been meant to serve as a counterpart to Hiori's {{p|Gallade}}.

Gardevoir's known moves are {{m|Teleport}} and {{m|Secret Power}}.}}

'''Ken Sugimori''' (Japanese: '''杉森建''', born January 27, 1966) is a friend of [[Satoshi Tajiri]] and illustrator of the original artwork for [[Pokémon]] [[Pokémon games|games]]. He also has developed conceptual artwork for the {{pkmn|movie}}s, and illustrates {{Trading Card Game}} cards and merchandising.

Sugimori's change of style over the years has been noticeable. Initially, he used a stiff, lightly shaded style that was very reminiscent of the early works of [[wp:Akira Toriyama|Akira Toriyama]]. However, in recent years, his drawings of people and creatures have had more muscle definition, shading, and more natural and fluid poses.

The character in the [[Pokémon anime]], Kenji (called [[Tracey Sketchit]] in the dub), may be an homage to him, especially as both enjoy creating art. This is similar to the way Satoshi (called [[Ash Ketchum]] in the dub) is named after Satoshi Tajiri.

==Synopsis==
It's a quiet day at Professor Oak's lab, but all that is about to change. As Kingler watches some Marill do a dance, it gets dizzy and clamps its claw on Phanpy's tail. Phanpy then goes into a {{m|Rollout}} which sends Totodile up in the air. It lands near Snorlax, causing it to roll over and down a hill and in front of Cyndaquil. Cyndaquil runs until it falls off a cliff and uses a Flamethrower that awakens the Tauros and sends them on a stampede.

Unaware of this, Professor Oak is working on the computer when Tracey comes in with some books. Tracey tells him that he still has to give the Starter Pokémon a health check-up before the mayor's son arrives to start his journey. The Professor is surprised at this, so Tracey gives him some information to look over while he answers the door. Delia is at the door, and is welcomed by Tracey before he is smothered by Muk.

The three Pokémon have passed the health test so they are now ready for the mayor's son. However, they then hear a rumbling that turns out to be the Tauros stampede. They crash through the lab and Ash's Bulbasaur enters the hole made in the wall. Meanwhile, the starting Pokémon escape through the other hole. Before they can chase after them, the mayor's son suddenly appears inside the lab and comments on the hole. He then asks what Pokémon they have and says he would really like a {{p|Torchic}} but could settle for {{p|Treecko}} or {{p|Mudkip}}. He just doesn't want to get stuck with Bulbasaur, Charmander or Squirtle because everyone starts with them. Tracey tells him (Gilbert) that it doesn't work like that and Professor Oak explains that it doesn't matter for the moment because they ran away. Gilbert laughs at this and then says he could settle for {{p|Pikachu}} since he remembers one kid who started with a Pikachu who has been pretty successful. Delia lights up and says that he is talking about Ash, though there were special circumstances that day. Gilbert says that he is special as well and that he isn't leaving without a Pikachu, although maybe he should start with {{p|Raichu}} since then he wouldn't have to worry about raising it. Tracey is really annoyed by this point and tells him that raising Pokémon is the whole point of becoming a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Professor Oak tells him to calm down and then explains that the runaway Pokémon need to be caught before something bad happens to them.

Outside, Professor Oak gives some starter [[Poké Ball]]s to Tracey, who then runs towards the river with Delia and Mr. Mime. Professor Oak tells Gilbert that they will search by the mountains, but then a woman calls him over with the new issue of Pokémon Monthly. He explains the situation and asks her to hold one for him and then asks her not to tell anyone. Gilbert tells Professor Oak that she will tell everyone, but the Professor doesn't think she will, and besides whom will she tell? All of Pallet Town, as it turns out. Through loudspeakers above the town, she offers a reward for information on the three runaways.

Tracey, Delia and Mimey have already located Charmander. It is by the river trying to touch the top of a Magikarp. If it falls in, its flame will go out and it will never be able to battle. It falls as it grabs onto the Magikarp and starts splashing around the surface of the water. Tracey jumps in and picks up the Charmander in time, but then slips on the way back across. Mimey lifts them up with {{m|Psychic}} and they reach the riverbank safely. Tracey returns Charmander to the [[Poké Ball]].

Gilbert is now on a small ledge above a large ravine. However, Professor Oak assures him that there is plenty of room on the ledge and tells him to just not look down. Besides, he will be going to scarier and higher places on his journey. Gilbert says that he will have strong Pokémon to protect him then, which is why he doesn't want to start with anything weak. Professor Oak tells him that he doesn't have the right attitude and that maybe he should just go home. Gilbert agrees and starts to head back when they hear the sound of a Squirtle. It is hanging off a tree branch above them. Gilbert is worried but then remembers that he quit, so he turns around and walks off. But then he slips and falls. Luckily, Bulbasaur is there to grab him with its {{m|Vine Whip}}. Then Squirtle falls and is grabbed by Professor Oak.

Now on safer ground, they watch the shell with Squirtle inside. As Bulbasaur gently rubs it, Gilbert asks why they don't just put it back in the [[Poké Ball]]. Professor Oak explains that the Squirtle will be scared of the outside world, so Bulbasaur is just trying to make it feel more comfortable. Gilbert goes over to Squirtle and starts doing an impression of one of Professor Oak's classes. Squirtle comes out of its shell and jumps into Gilbert's arms.

Back in town, both groups report back. Bulbasaur is now the only one left and the earlier request for information has proved useful. The Bulbasaur has been traveling through town and is now being chased by a group of wild Mankey. As the Professor knows where they hang out, the group heads over there immediately.

The Mankey turn out to be Primeape, and they are surrounding a tree that the Bulbasaur is currently hiding in. Gilbert is not worried – He can just take Ash's Bulbasaur since it is already at a high level and knows Vine Whip already. After he is told some sense, Professor Oak walks over to the Primeape and calmly assures them that he is just there to get the Bulbasaur. That doesn't work, but while he has their attention Mimey picks it up with Psychic. Suddenly, Gilbert sneezes, causing Mimey to drop the Bulbasaur right on top of a Primeape. All of the Primeape start to use {{m|Thrash}} as the young Bulbasaur runs over to the humans. The Primeape run towards them and they run away. The group run left but a Primeape jumps on top of Gilbert and he runs right. The Primeape run after Gilbert and the young Bulbasaur.

Gilbert soon reaches a gap too large to jump across and is now faced with that on one side and the Primeape gaining on him on the other. Gilbert realizes that he can't be afraid anymore and challenges the Primeape. This is brave but very stupid and luckily Ash's Bulbasaur arrives in time to use Vine Whip and send Gilbert and the young Bulbasaur over the gap. The Primeape start to attack Bulbasaur but it uses a {{m|SolarBeam}} that makes the Primeape run away.

Back at the lab, Gilbert is ready to leave on his journey with Bulbasaur by his side. Professor Oak tells him that he has come out of his shell and wishes him luck. Professor Oak, Tracey, Delia and Mimey wave but before Gilbert leaves he thanks Ash's Bulbasaur. As he walks off, the narrator tells us that while a good Trainer will catch many Pokémon, no bond is stronger than between a Trainer and their starter Pokémon. They start their journey together and learn from each other and grow to be strong and powerful friends.

Talk:Noivern (Pokémon)

2013-06-13T16:43:13Z

Rainbow Shifter: /* Weakness and Strength */

==Name==

<strike>Isn't the name [http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/other_pokemon/ ''Noivern'']? [[User:GreyDragon|GreyDragon]] ([[User talk:GreyDragon|talk]]) 16:17, 11 June 2013 (UTC)</strike>
:I can't even read.

Regarding name origin, Onbān is a combination of on and wyvern ''(uaibān)'', not bang.
:Also, the French name is from {{tt|bruit|noise}} and wyverne, and the German name is from {{wp|UHF}} and {{wp|Fafnir}}.--[[User:Lemonade Mouth|Lemonade Mouth]] ([[User talk:Lemonade Mouth|talk]]) 18:22, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

== Species ==

According to the {{n|E3 Nintendo Direct reveals masses of information#Press release|press release}}, Noivern is the Sound Wave Pokémon.--[[User:Lemonade Mouth|Lemonade Mouth]] ([[User talk:Lemonade Mouth|talk]]) 18:38, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

== Origin ==

It appears, from the color scheme, furry ruff, and affinity for fruit, to be partially based on flying fox [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_fox], with other features of bats added, such as the nose and large ears. The connection makes sense, since bats are commonly associated with sound because of their echolocation. [[User:Zakitano|Zakitano]] ([[User talk:Zakitano|talk]]) 19:53, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
*Also, due to its name in all languages and the design, it's based on a wyvern.--[[User:Darthrai|Darthrai]] ([[User talk:Darthrai|talk]]) 02:31, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

== Another possible origin ==

Due to its association with sound and the design of its ears, Noivern could possible be based of a boombox or a sub-woofer. [[User:CyberCat5555|CyberCat5555]] ([[User talk:CyberCat5555|talk]]) 22:06, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

==ZuBAT, GolBAT, CroBAT, WooBAT, SwooBAT, Spewpa & Noivern?'==

Should it not be mentioned in the article that Noivern evolves from Spewpa, or has this not yet been confirmed. Is it also not noteworthy that so far, it is the only bat-based Pokémon without "bat" at the end of its name (excluding Spewpa. [And even if Spewpa is counted, it would still be the only bat-based Pokémon ''family'' without "bat at the end of its name"])?--[[User:ShinyPatch|ShinyPatch]] ([[User talk:ShinyPatch|talk]]) 22:50, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

...Spewpa evolves into Vivillon. [[User:Zakitano|Zakitano]] ([[User talk:Zakitano|talk]]) 22:58, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

:And Gligar/Gliscor want a word with you about bat-based Pokemon without bat at the end of their name. [[User:Myzou|Myzou]] ([[User talk:Myzou|talk]]) 09:17, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

::Oh dear! I feel like an idiot now! I ''was'' thinking that [[Spewpa]] sounded like pupa and would be a more fitting name for a [[Vivillon]] pre-evolution! I must have read it wrong! As for [[Gligar]] and [[Gliscor]], I ''did'' consider them, but felt that, as they are labeled "FlyScorpion" and "Fang Scorp" Pokémon, they were most likely ''not'' based on bats, and only really based on scorpions (that can fly), but then again, it is pretty obvious they ''are'' "batty" so to speak! So, in conclusion, I was stupid, and am sorry if I wasted anyone's time, I thought it was an interesting fact, but it was just arguably interesting fiction. Thanks for responding anyway Zakitano and Myzou, and clearing things up for me. Sorry about that.--[[User:ShinyPatch|ShinyPatch]] ([[User talk:ShinyPatch|talk]]) 15:10, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

== fruit ==

We KNOW it eats fruit. So why isn't that in the diet section? [[User:0danmaster0|0danmaster0]] ([[User talk:0danmaster0|talk]]) 12:14, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

== Name origin ==

the noi bit could also be noire. It depends on the official pronouciation but for now it could be either [[User:0danmaster0|0danmaster0]] ([[User talk:0danmaster0|talk]]) 13:00, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

I agree that it could come from noir due to its colour and the location of Kalos being France.
--[[User:Ashitic|Ashitic]] ([[User talk:Ashitic|talk]]) 13:45, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

== Soundwaves=Air=Flying-type? ==

So I noticed that Noivern has the honor of being the first dual-typed Pokémon to have Flying as its primary type. And I don't know if Bulbapedia could give any explanation-by-reference for typing, so I thought I'd just ask this: So soundwaves are vibrations in the air, and air is associated with the Flying-type. This made me realize that it is actually pretty strange that sound is actually associated with the Normal-type (Hyper Voice, Exploud). So maybe the designers also noticed this and now want sound to be part of the Flying-type. This would explain why Noivern has Flying as its primary type, as he is more about sound than about being Dragon. Think about it: if I say 'Noivern!', would the first thing you'd say be 'sound' or 'Dragon'? So Noivern is primary the 'Sound-type' which is the 'Flying-type', which then is his primary type! Could we add this reference for its type with these few words: 'Noivern could have Flying as its primary type, because soundwaves are associated with air and Noivern's primary characteristic is sound above being Dragon.'? [[User:Nickvang|Nickvang]] ([[User talk:Nickvang|talk]]) 19:03, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
:That's speculation. (Besides, while you may think "sound" immediately as a result of the "noise" in "Noivern", I didn't even realize "noise" was the source of "Noi-" for awhile because I was too focused on "-vern" = "{{wp|wyvern}}" = Dragon. Everybody reacts to things differently, so it's faulty logic to present "it's the first thing you'd think of when you hear it" as evidence.) In any case, we don't include any justifications for other primary types that are in an odd order (everything uses Rock/Ground except the Rhyhorn family, which are Ground/Rock, for example), so I don't really see a need for this. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 20:04, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

=Weakness and Strength=
Shouldn't we be able to add the weakness and strength for Noivern? [[User:Togekiss4ever|Togekiss4ever]] ([[User talk:Togekiss4ever|talk]]) 09:03, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
:nope. flying might resist fairy for example. [[User:0danmaster0|0danmaster0]] ([[User talk:0danmaster0|talk]]) 15:46, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
::How could we add it when we have no idea what Fairy is weak/strong against? [[User:Rainbow Shifter|Rainbow Shifter]] ([[User talk:Rainbow Shifter|talk]]) 16:43, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

'''Ash Ketchum''' (Japanese: '''サトシ''' ''Satoshi'') is the main character of both the [[Pokémon anime]] and ''[[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]'' manga, and is believed to be based on the {{ga|Red|protagonist}} of the [[Generation I|first generation]] Pokémon games.

He shares his Japanese name—which can be taken to mean "wisdom" or "reason" (智)—with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, "[[Gotta catch 'em all!]]."

{{spoilers}}

==In the anime==
===Character===
[[File:Ash anime.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]
Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateur [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from {{an|Professor Oak}} as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock in his sleep and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.
[[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|200px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]
However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. The [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] he {{pkmn2|caught}}, was caught by luck, as he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five Gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, one of his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire type.

Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight Badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary, and ending up in the top 16. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.

[[File:Ash AG.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]
Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.
[[File:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]
Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary!]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.

In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on {{ashfr}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of "best friend" is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.

He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.
[[File:Ash DP 1.png|thumb|right|200px|Ash in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}]]
Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|M02}}, {{OBP|Latias|M05}}, {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Azelf}}, {{OBP|Shaymin|M11}}, {{mov|Giratina}}, {{OBP|Arceus|M12}}, {{OBP|Victini|M14}}, {{OBP|Reshiram|M14}}{{tt|*|Black—Victini and Reshiram}}, {{OBP|Zekrom|M14}}{{tt|*|White—Victini and Zekrom}} and {{an|Meloetta}}. In the English dub [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be "The Chosen One" - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted.

Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. Therefore, he made a connection with Sir Aaron's {{mov|Lucario|Lucario|08}}. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient aura guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well. This time, however, he merely senses the aura, rather than manipulating it.

[[File:AshWallace.png|thumb|left|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]
Ash has also participated in Contests. He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, as well as one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the Contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a Ribbon he received in a Contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.

Ash soon obtained all of the Sinnoh Gym Badges. During his battles in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]], he managed to advance to the Top 4, during which time he defeated his long-time Sinnoh rival [[Paul]] for the first time, and fought against {{si|Tobias}}, becoming the only known Trainer to defeat his {{p|Darkrai}}. Though he lost later on in the battle, he seems to be okay with losing, as he has become closer to his Pokémon than ever before. Ash, {{an|Dawn}}, and Brock then set off on their own paths to follow their respective dreams, with Brock saying he will no longer be joining Ash on his next journey.

In the {{series|Best Wishes}}, Ash came with Professor Oak and his mom on a trip to the [[Unova]] region. After losing in a battle to [[Trip]] and seeing the power of the legendary {{p|Zekrom}}, Ash became interested in traveling Unova to meet new Pokémon, as well as new friends. He is now currently in journey in [[Unova]], first bringing along only his Pikachu as he did in Hoenn.

During his time in Unova, along with his quest for the Badges, Ash also competed in the local competitions [[Club Battle]], [[Clubsplosion]] and [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]], despite battling quite well, he failed to win them and managed to be the runner-up of two of the three. Despite these mishaps, he didn't feel bad for seeing his friends winning the awards. After managing to obtain the Unova Badges he was allowed to participate in the [[Vertress Conference]] along with his current and some new rivals. In the preliminary round, he battled Trip one-on-one, defeating him for the first time and ending their rivalry. Ash also defeated his friend and rival [[Stephan]]. He then battled one of his recent rivals, {{un|Cameron}}, where he lost in ''[[BW108|A Unova League Evolution!]]'', making it to the top 8 of the Vertress Conference.

One particular characteristic about Ash that has not changed over the course of the series aside from his determination and his passion for raising and training Pokémon is that he is incredibly selfless. He will often (and this has happened for just about every one of his Pokémon) go to extraordinary lengths to earn a Pokémon's trust and respect; and he will often go out of his way to better understand a Pokémon that he sees as troubled. He is also very fair-minded and trusting, a true testament to his good-natured character.

===Family===
[[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|250px|A young Ash]]
Ash is an only child that lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.

His father has not been introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, and that he is still living. In the original, he is also confirmed to have a grandfather, and his son (Ash's father) followed his footsteps. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to further Ash's maturity and development as a Trainer.

===Pokémon===

[[File:Ash Pokemon with Oak.png|thumb|right|300px|A majority of Ash's Pokémon at Professor Oak's lab]]
As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care. Ash's battle style is generally spontaneous and fairly unorthodox, and his Pokémon often reflect these traits.

====Currently in rotation====


In the [[Unova]] region, Ash does not keep the same party at all times like he had done previously. Instead, he swaps his on hand Pokémon (with the exception of Pikachu), much like he did with his {{AP|Kingler}} and {{AP|Muk}} in [[Kanto]] with {{an|Professor Oak}}.

==In the manga==
===In the Ash and Pikachu manga===
[[File:Ash Ketchum AP.png|thumb|right|Ash in Ash and Pikachu]]
Ash is a starring character in [[Ash and Pikachu]], a manga series based on the [[Johto]] saga of the Pokémon anime.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
{{main|Ash Ketchum (EToP)}}
Ash Ketchum is a starring character in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], a manga series based on the anime. Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].

===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
[[File:Ash and Brock MPJ.png|thumb|Ash and Brock in Magical Pokémon Journey]]
Ash, along with {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}}, made cameo appearances in bonus chapters of the [[Magical Pokémon Journey]] manga. In the bonus chapters, Ash and {{ashfr}} have mistakenly wandered into the world Magical Pokémon Journey is set in. The bonus chapters chronicle their attempts to return to their own world (of the {{pkmn|anime}}) and their encounters with various aspects of the Magical Pokémon Journey canon which differ from the anime's canon (such as the use of [[Poké Ball]]s).

===In the movie adaptations===
[[File:DP series trio.png|thumb|left|200px|Ash with his friends in the movie 10 manga adaptation]]
Since Ash and his Pikachu have appeared in every [[Pokémon movie]] to date, likewise, Ash is a main character in every Pokémon movie manga adaptations. The same applies with Ash's team as they made similar appearances.

===In the Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl manga===
Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} appear as main characters alongside {{an|Dawn}} and her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} in the {{pkmn|manga}} series {{OBP|Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl|Sakai Takayuki}}, an adaptation of the anime set in the timeline of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:Ash catches a Pokemon.png|thumb|250px|Ash after catching a Pokémon]]
[[File:Ash Dewgong Drawing.png|thumb|200px|Ash's drawing of a Dewgong]]
* Ash has never officially caught a Pokémon of the {{t|Steel}}, {{t|Psychic}}, {{t|Ghost}}, or {{t|Fairy}} types.
** This excludes both his unofficial {{TP|Sabrina|Haunter}}, a {{2t|Ghost|Poison}}-type, and in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga, where he caught a {{p|Slowpoke}}, a {{2t|Water|Psychic}}-type.
* The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.
* When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary "Adventures in Voice Acting", she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time. This name would later be given to a {{an|Casey|recurring character from Johto}}.
* Ash can {{wp|drawing|draw}}, as shown in ''[[DP089|Up Close and Personable!]]'' when he drew a {{p|Dewgong}}.
* Ash has been shown to be a good climber, as mentioned in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'' (when {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} say "He climbs like a {{p|Mankey}}!") and ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' (when Brock calls him a "human {{p|Aipom}}"). Ash's climbing ability has also been shown in several episodes throughout the series, such as ''[[BW002|Enter Iris and Axew!]]'', when he climbs up a tree to try to save {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Axew}}.
* Ash has lost a match against every {{type|Normal}} [[Gym Leader]] he has faced: [[Whitney]] in ''[[EP158|A Goldenrod Opportunity]]'', [[Norman]] in ''[[AG003|There's no Place Like Hoenn]]'', [[Lenora]] in ''[[BW015|The Battle According to Lenora]]'', and [[Cheren]] in ''[[BW111|There's a New Gym Leader in Town!]]''.

'''The Psyduck Stops Here!''' (Japanese: '''コダックの通せんぼ！''' ''The {{tt|Koduck|Psyduck}} Roadblock!'') is the 87th episode of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, and the 553rd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on July 24, 2008, and in the United States on December 27, 2008.

{{spoilers}}

==Synopsis==

The episode starts with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} traveling through a valley on the way to {{an|Dawn}}'s next Contest in [[Celestic Town]]. They encounter three {{p|Psyduck}} in the middle of the road. After confirming with {{an|Brock}} that the Pokémon are Psyduck, Dawn scans them with her [[Pokédex]]. As they walk closer to them the Psyduck's eyes glow pink, surrounding the trio with pink as well and lifting them up with {{m|Psychic}}. Ash, Dawn and {{an|Brock}} sit down to come up with a plan to get around them. When it seems like there's no other choice but to use force, Ash sends out {{AP|Turtwig}} who attacks with {{m|Razor Leaf}} and {{m|Bite}}, but the three Psyduck are too powerful and Ash calls Turtwig back. Next up is {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} who uses {{m|Whirlpool}} but is defeated by the Psyduck, who use Psychic to reflect Whirlpool back to Piplup. Brock sends out {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} who uses {{m|Poison Sting}}, but he too is defeated. {{AP|Chimchar}} also comes out, uses {{m|Dig}} (as Ash thinks Psychic won't reach underground), gets lifted out of the hole by the Psyduck, smashed into the ground, and defeated.

{{TRT}} appears and do their {{motto}}. They haughtily state that they can do a better job of getting the Psyduck out of the way than the twerps can. {{MTR}} walks up to the Psyduck and attempts to bargain with them. However it backfires and Team Rocket is sent blasting off by Psychic to the top of the valley. [[Brock's Happiny]] comes out and uses {{m|Pound}} while the Psyduck use Psychic on Happiny, crashing her to the ground. Happiny gets angry and starts lifting up a gigantic boulder to throw onto the Psyduck, but she loses her balance and swerves around while Ash, Dawn, and Brock try not to get hit. Eventually, Happiny crashes and breaks the boulder, fainting. [[Dawn's Swinub]] is sent out, but gets defeated as well. They then come up with a plan for {{AP|Staravia}} and {{AP|Gliscor}} to fly around with Ash while Dawn and Brock distract the Psyduck. Brock begins to perform Brock's Paradise while Ash and Gliscor take off. Gliscor flies into the wall a little farther down the valley. Ash sees a few mother Psyduck holding Eggs, and realizes that the Psyduck are protecting their babies.

Back with Brock, he is still performing the song but is getting tired. Ash reappears with Gliscor and lands. He explains to Brock and Dawn that the three Psyduck are just protecting their babies. Team Rocket reappears again in their Meowth Balloon and reperform their motto. Ash, Brock, and Dawn send out Staravia, Croagunk and Buneary respectively to battle Team Rocket. Chimchar also comes out to fight {{TP|James|Carnivine}} and {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}. Team Rocket blasts off.

They return to the lake in time to see the Eggs hatch. They wonder why they are not at their lake, when three {{p|Muk}} rise up from the water. Dawn scans the Muk with her Pokédex. They send the Muk out of this lake and back into their original lake where they meet three other Muk and fall in love. The Psyduck hop back to the lake as Ash, Dawn and Brock continue their journey to Celestic Town.

* Brock wears his outfit from [[Takeshi's Paradise]] in this episode, and music from that is used as well in the original Japanese version.
* This episode marks the first and only time that [[Brock's Happiny]] got knocked out.
* After it is knocked out, Dawn returns {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} to its Poké Ball for the first time since ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'', in which the episode number is a reversal of this episode. Once it was returned, it didn't reappear for the rest of the episode.
* {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} had not used {{m|Double Team}} since she was an {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}}, making this her first time since evolving. In addition, Ambipom hasn't used this move since ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', 31 episodes earlier.
* An [[EP161|earlier episode]] had a similar title to this episode. Both are references to the famous saying "{{wp|the buck stops here}}".

===Errors===
* When Dawn got her "Psyducklings" idea, Brock's hair is colored black instead of brown.

===Dub edits===
*As Brock performs [[Takeshi's Paradise]], the Takeshi's Paradise background music is removed.

'''Conway''' (Japanese: '''コウヘイ''' ''Kōhei'') is a recurring character from the {{pkmn|anime}}. His first appearance was in [[DP050|''Tag! We're It!'']] as {{an|Dawn}}'s tag-team partner.

==Characteristics and history==
Conway first appeared from ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]'' to ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit!]]''. He was shown to be a very smart Trainer. His strategies played an important role in helping himself and {{an|Dawn}} to advance to the finals of the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]].

Conway appeared again in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]'' through ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]'' during a four-episode arc at the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]]. During this arc he demonstrated his knowledge about Pokémon as well as an [[HeatTagShipping|attraction]] towards Dawn.

He later appeared in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', where it was revealed he was also entering the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]]. In ''[[DP183|League Unleashed!]]'', he passed the first round, then in ''[[DP184|Casting a Paul on Barry!]]'' he made it through the second and had his third round opponent revealed to be {{Ash}}. He battled Ash and lost in ''[[DP185|Working on a Right Move!]]'' after almost defeating him thanks to his strategies.

He made a cameo appearance during the credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

Conway uses very effective strategies, but doesn't improvise much, something that has led to several losses for him. Examples include using {{m|Psychic}} to redirect an attack, using {{m|Protect}} while another Pokémon attacks, and so on.

==Pokémon==
This listing is of Conway's known Pokémon:

|epname=Tag! We're It...!
|desc=When {{an|Dawn}} first met Conway, Slowking was with him and Dawn thought both were creepy, but Conway told her that Slowking had taken a liking to her. During their first battle, Conway told Dawn to not worry about defense; their strategy being her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} would use offensive moves, while Slowking kept on defending him with attacks like {{m|Safeguard}}. It was later shown to have helped [[Dawn's Buneary]] beat Conway and Dawn's semi-final round opponents, in ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit!]]''.

It was later seen again in ''[[DP089|Up Close and Personable!]]'', in the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] where it showed off some impressive moves against [[Jessie's Yanmega]]; protecting a {{p|Lumineon}} that he, Ash, and {{ashfr}} had found. It was seen for the last time in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]''; running alongside Conway in the third leg of the triathlon.

Slowking's known moves are {{m|Safeguard}}, {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Psychic}} and {{m|Water Pulse}}.}}

While its {{m|Gyro Ball}} was able to deal a lot of damage to the first two, Gible was able to stop the attack by biting Shuckle. It was eventually defeated with a {{m|Draco Meteor}}.

'''This is the Project Locations talk page. If you have any suggestions, inquiries, or questions, please don't hesitate to ask.'''

==Question==
Hi, I am a new user, and I was wondering if I can join the project. My user name is Will1313.
Thanks

=="Episodes Featuring" and "Trivia"==

I think it would be cool to add those sections. Just a suggestion. If you don't mind, I'd like to also add a map section so I can add them to the location articles as they get completed.--[[User:LynnCreed|LynnCreed]] 11:01, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
:Episodes featured would be a good place to start, certainly. The maps, well, we'll see after we get all the non-game places, eh? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 21:28, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

==Almia==

Almia REALLY needs some editing. There are so many pages that don't exist, and the ones that do are stubs. It HAS come out in Japan, you know. We DO have access to this info. Even though we might not know the English names of these places, there should at least be information on them! [[User:TorchicBlaziken|TorchicBlaziken]] ([[User_talk:TorchicBlaziken|talk]])

== Header/sidenav options font size on project page ==

<big>J</big>ust noticed in the project page that the header and sidenav options font sizes are notably decreased. Currently happening in Firefox, IE and Opera.     -–<×vVvvv [[User talk:S1tHSL4y3r|τλικ]] to [[User:S1tHSL4y3r|ς1tHςι4γ3r]] ^^vVv×>–- 05:56, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
:<big>N</big>arrowed the culprit down to the Locationstub template. Take the template out and the page is fine. Shall check the template code as the other stub templates aren't giving their Project pages the same problem.     -–<×vVvvv [[User talk:S1tHSL4y3r|τλικ]] to [[User:S1tHSL4y3r|ς1tHςι4γ3r]] ^^vVv×>–- 16:22, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

== Best Practice Article ==

== Confusion about a few things ==

I edited [[Pallet Town]] awhile ago and the other day I was thinking, why are Gary's battles listed there, shouldn't they be on [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]], I mean, isn't that standard for these situations, kind of like [[Jubilife TV]]? Speaking of that, shouldn't the Pokémon you get from {{prof|Oak}} be on the Lab page too, and also why are the Pokémon party boxes like they are here, and not how they are done normally?--[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] 11:14, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
:Well, it says on the data screen that your starter Pokemon is received in Pallet Town, not Oak's lab. I guess the battle is listed for similar reasons. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 04:39, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
::But the battle and getting of Pokémon clearly happens in Oak's Lab, even though it says Pallet Town, that could be just a generalisation. --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] 23:53, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
:::In the game, [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] isn't a location, it is still Pallet Town.--[[User:Clarky13|'''Clarky''']][[User talk:Clarky13|'''13''']] 01:01, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

== Gen I maps ==

Can someone please tell me how can I get the different maps of the locations in Generation I? It's because between RG, B, and Y, they're different. I need all 3 variants of the maps (RG, B, and Y - Japanese versions) because I'm uploading the games' soundtrack on YouTube but I also want to put pictures of the maps in the tracks of locations. That's why I need them in all their variants, from the Japanese versions and preferably in black and white like the Gen I maps present on the 'pedia's articles. [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 14:46, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
:Some articles have maps, some don't. If you have a map, upload it, please.--[[User:Clarky13|'''Clarky''']][[User talk:Clarky13|'''13''']] 07:51, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

== Gen IV maps ==

I think there are quite a few maps from Gen IV which generally suck. And by suck, I am of course referring to maps which are not at 1:1 ratio, maps which are incredibly blurry, maps which were blatantly scanned out of some guide, maps which are scribbled over, maps which have massive JPEG compression artifacts, etc. My suggestion: look at some of {{u|Cadellin}}'s maps, and consider that quality to be your goal when making maps. To start this off, I will be posting a new map of [[Eterna Forest]] either tonight or tomorrow morning (it's currently just past 11 o'clock here). Yes, I know Cadellin made the old map, but it was not very good quality. Definitely not his/her best work. Still, his/her other work is absolutely beautiful. See [[Valley Windworks]] for an example. Anyways, I'm new to Bulbapedia (not to Wikipedia), but I'm here to contribute. [[User:Nuck Chorris|Nuck Chorris]] 06:17, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

::Okay, I uploaded it to Bulbagarden Archives ([[a:Image:EternaForest.png]]), but on the old image, [[a:Image:Eterna Forest.png]], I don't know what to do. On Wikipedia I know you'd tag it with <nowiki>{{Superseded-image}}</nowiki>, but that template doesn't seem to exist on Bulbapedia/Bulbagarden Archives. So, what should I do with the old image? Don't worry, I can assure you mine is far better quality. Oh, also, there is a side route which the Pokémon games consider part of Eterna Forest, but which were not included on the old map, and are really not covered by any map/article. I have a bunch of unused space at the top left corner of the map, so should I put an inset there for that side route? I know I use that side route all the time, plus there is a 4-tile patch of soft, fertile soil there, along with a girl who gives you an item, I think something for fashion or one of the other things with no purpose besides cosmetics. Please help! [[User:Nuck Chorris|Nuck Chorris]] 02:03, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
:::First of all, thanks for the great quality of work you have put in. I really love it and hope t see more of it. Secondly, Bulbapedia isn't Wikipedia. There is a difference between the two, we want more of an aesthetical lean toward them, but we are not like Wikipedia. When uploading images on the Archives, you can replace the first one and upload over it. Now, as for your side route problem, you can add a section to the Geography section, add a bit of info and then add the picture as a thumbnail on the side, because its not really needed in the infobox.--[[User:Clarky13|'''Clarky''']][[User talk:Clarky13|'''13''']] 06:56, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm kinda interested in helping out with the map-making process, but... well, how do you guys make Gen IV maps? It's not like in the previous generations where the backgrounds are stationary and you can just copy and paste... the Gen IV maps change perspective with every step you take. How do you guys deal with this changing perspective? - [[User:Nick15|Nick15]] 01:50, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

== Pokémon World (Mystery Dungeon) ==

Shouldn't this be counted as a region, since it is seperate from all the others??--[[User:Smartkidhen|Smartkidhen]] 20:10, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

I thinks so. It should be added to the To-Do list for the project.--[[User:Spotman234|Spotman234]] 08:18:25 December 2009 (UTC)
But there are more than two worlds, the one from PMD (Pokémon Mystery Dungeon)Red/Blue, and now the ones from PMD Time/Darkness/Sky. So, they have to be distinguishable from one game to the next, otherwise, it would be a mess. Sky needs ALOT of updating on Sky peak.

==Accessory items that pokemon can pick up at (location) - HG/SS==

This kind of goes for Project Routes too, but I've noticed that in HG/SS the pokemon that's walking with you, when you talk to it, will sometimes give you an accessory item. I've been playing it for a while and, from what I've seen, what it gives you depends on the route/location you're in. I think it'd be really convenient if there were a section for what the pokemon will pick up in the specific location, just like there's usually one for non-accessory items that can be found at said location. I'd be willing to help with this, too, as I already know some of the things you always find in certain locations. And with the help of the Accessory page, I can find out their official English translations (I'm playing the Japanese version, lol).

== How about a template for event-only locations? ==

Okay so I figure we don't have a huge number of event-only locations in the whole Pokémon world. These are kinda important because if someone wants to explore the world, these are going to be the locations that are hardest to visit. I actually counted just 11: Navel Rock, Birth Island, Shinto Ruins, Southern Island, Faraway Island, Rock Peak Ruins, Iceberg Ruins, Iron Ruins, Newmoon Island, Flower Paradise and Hall Of Origin. Would it be appropriate to make a navigation template linking these locations? [[User:Kidburla|Kidburla]] 20:33, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
:I'm not a member of this Project, but I would rather see a {{color|{{link color}}|Category:Event-only locations}} than another chunky template taking up more space than the text in the article. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:05, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

== Additional trainer data ==
Hi all, I'm new around here, but not to wikis in general. I have loads of trainer data for generations I-III including all of the rematch information for generation III. I noticed that only the first encounters with trainers is usually listed on each location page. Is there interest in adding rematch data at some point? It would seem consistent to do something similar to what is done with the different movesets among generations, i.e. make a sub-page for each generation's rematches. For example, for [[Route 117]] the URL would be something like <nowiki>[[Route 1/Emerald_rematches]]</nowiki>. Any interest? Or should I just throw out all my trainer data I've been sitting on for 7 years? --[[User:PagodaGiftShop|PagodaGiftShop]] 22:55, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

== Accessories ==
Should the accessories available in Johto and Kanto locations in HGSS be listed on the respective locations' pages? If so, how? Should a space be created in the infoboxes? --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] 12:27, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

== /* New Pokémon locations template */ ==

Okay, the old [[template:Catchentry1|one]] is way out of date, so I made a [[User:Takharii/sandbox#New_Pokemon_locations_.28on_routes.29_template.29|new one]] (using the [[User:Takharii/pokélisth|same]] [[User:Takharii/pokélistbod|three]] [[User:Takharii/pokélistfoot|parts]] as [[template:itlisth/doc|the item locations template]]). What does everyone think? [[User:Takharii|'''たか''']][[User talk:Takharii|'''はり''']][[Special:Contributions/Takharii|'''い''']] 07:50, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

== Mystery Dungeon locations ==

I've noticed that there seems to be a different format for the articles between games. In the articles on MD1 locations, when the dungeon is split into parts they each have separate articles. For example, [[Rock Path]], [[Mt. Blaze]] and [[Mt. Blaze Peak]]. On the other hand, the MD2 locations have those all lumped together. For example, [[Mt. Horn|Rock Path and Mt. Horn]] or [[Quicksand Cave|Quicksand Cave and Quicksand Pit]]. They should all be consistent, so which is the preferred style? Personally, I would go with either giving them all separate articles (although Rock Path could prove a problem) or putting them all in separate sections in one article, as is the case for the [[Temporal Tower]] article. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 20:56, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

== Seasons ==

There are a few areas, such as Routes {{rtn|6|Isshu}} through {{rtn|8|Isshu}}, in which the wild Pokémon change according to the current season. Since there apparently are no longer changes in wild Pokémon based on the time of the day, is there any chance of creating a template to be used in the gen V games to reflect that? Something in the lines of:

{| align="left" class="roundy" width=425px style="border: 2px solid #{{locationcolor/dark|{{{1|road}}}}}; background: #{{locationcolor/med|{{{1|road}}}}}; margin-right: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px;"

{{#ifeq: {{{2|yes}}}|yes|
{{!}}- align="center" style="background: #{{locationcolor/light|{{{1|road}}}}}; color: #{{locationcolor/text|{{{1|road}}}}}"
! width=11% style="background:#{{spring color}}" {{!}} [[File:586Sawsbuck-Spring.png|30px|Spring|link=Seasons#Spring]]
! width=11% style="background:#{{summer color}}" {{!}} [[File:586Sawsbuck-Summer.png|30px|Summer|link=Seasons#Summer]]
! width=11% style="background:#{{autumn color}}" {{!}} [[File:586Sawsbuck-Autumn.png|30px|Autumn|link=Seasons#Autumn]]
! width=11% style="background:#{{winter color}}" {{!}} [[File:586Sawsbuck-Winter.png|30px|Winter|link=Seasons#Winter]]}}
|}
The Shikijika images being placeholders for whatever is decided to be used as symbols for the seasons.
Or, since there are only a few areas in which it happens, should we just use <nowiki>{{catch/div}}</nowiki>? [[User:Mr. Charlie|'''Mr. Charlie''']]([[User_Talk:Mr. Charlie|''TalkToMe'']]) 13:49, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

== The Seven Orre Colosseums/Stadiums ==

I am wondering if someone with more insight can clarify exactly what to do for these Orre Colosseums/Stadiums articles (there are 7 of them - see the bottom of [[Phenac Stadium]] and browse the "Colosseums" section to see what I am referring to). The most complete seems to be the actual [[Orre Colosseum]], but it still seems to be missing some organization. Each of these 7 articles are location-related, but I do not see them, or their region Orre, specifically outlined on the [[Bulbapedia:Project_Locations|Project Locations]] page. For example, they are not mentioned under the [[Bulbapedia:Project_Locations#Categories|Categories]], and neither is Orre, as opposed to the GB line of games. Should we have a new template for them, or just use a pre-existing one, such as the "Infobox location" template, as used on [[Orre Colosseum]]? I can get to work on refining these if someone with proper experience/knowledge can point me in the right direction. Sorry for the long post, but I just don't want to make useless edits, thinking I'm making contributions while I'm actually just annoying people. Thanks.   →   '''[[User:Zelkova|Zelkova]]   [[User talk:Zelkova|(Talk)]]'''   19:23, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
:I am going to just put the already-present information into the template boxes used for other similar location-based articles. This talk page does not seem to be very active anymore, and so I cannot see myself getting a solid reply any time soon. I will do what I can to make things better, in the least risky way possible. For now I will work on Orre-related locations, starting with the aforementioned colosseums, and keep them consistent with each other as well as the project standards.

I think that in the Mystery Dungeon Location template there should be a "darkness" section, showing in what dungeons are dark, on what floors, and how dark (one- or two-tile sight radius).

== Terrian Types/Biomes/Landforms ==
Hello, I recently joined the wiki and this project, and was wondering if we could expand the pages of specific groups of locations, including Terrain Types, Landforms, or Biomes. For example, the only good article we have of this is [[Desert]] and Cave, while locations such as Volcano, Mountain, Forest, Grassland, Ocean, Snow, and Marshes are left in the dust as disumbagation pages. I would like to suggest in order to improve quality and provide more information to our users that we begin to turn these pages into full fledged articles, similar to the Desert article. Thoughts? [[User:XXSuperXXNintendoXx|XXSuperXXNintendoXx]] 22:47, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
:We have a [[User:Turtwig A/Forests|Forest]] page under construction. Ocean, volcano and mountain all seem reasonable (although volcano might do as just a section on mountain). I think snow is pretty much covered by [[snow tile]], and marsh is so uncommon that [[marsh tile]] is enough too. Grassland isn't really a common location at all, and I don't think it needs an article. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 01:21, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

Hmm, agreed I would be happy to work on a Mountain/Volcano page... my favorite types are Fire, so its always a joy to work on their habitat, but I don't know if I can work on it the way Turtwig A has because it seems to be located on his userpage. Which unfortunately, I can't edit mine due to being non-autocomfirmed. Is there anyway around this? If you want to look at some of my work, while thinking of solution if needed. Just look at my userpage on Zelda Wiki, same username. [[User:XXSuperXXNintendoXx|XXSuperXXNintendoXx]] 01:28, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
:Well, if you made sure you completed the page first, it could be put straight into the mainspace. That forests page was made back when only the caves page existed, not desert (which was changed from a page about a specific location too a general page by me in late 2010). I think I'll clean it up and mainspace it today. It really shouldn't be sitting there anymore. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 01:56, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

'''Protect''' (Japanese: '''まもる''' ''Protect'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation II]]. It has been [[TM17]] since Generation II.

==Effect==
===Generation II===
Protects the user from all effects of moves that target it during the turn it is used, including damage. This does not include damage afflicted by [[weather conditions]] it is susceptible to, or damage from a [[status ailment]] that it obtained on a previous turn. Using Protect, {{m|Detect}}, or {{m|Endure}} consecutively (not counting turns spent using items) decreases the chance of success by 50% each use, whether it is successful or not. Protect has an extra 1/256 chance of failing at any consecutive use, due to the accuracy check in the first two generations.<ref>[http://pokemon-online.eu/forums/showthread.php?8236-Protect-rate&p=92750&viewfull=1#post92750 Pokémon Online forums]</ref>

The following moves cannot be stopped by Protect:

{| {| align="left" style="background: #{{normal color light}}; {{roundy|1em}}; border: 5px solid #{{normal color}};"
|-
|
{| border=1 width="100%" align="center" class="sortable roundy" style="background: #FFFFFF; border:1px solid #{{normal color light}}; border-collapse:collapse;"

{{movelist|Future Sight|Psychic}}
{{movelist|Perish Song|Normal}}
{{movelist|Psych Up|Normal}}
{{movelist|Transform|Normal}}
|}
|}

 
===Generation III===
Protect now has a 50% decaying rate of success on the current turn if Protect, {{m|Detect}}, or {{m|Endure}}, was used successfully on the previous turn. However, this only holds until the fourth consecutive turn, after which the chance of success follows an erratic sequence that is given in the table below:<ref>[http://no2.pic.bz/document/waza/each/6F.html ポケットモンスター情報センター　2号館] (Japanese)</ref>

Protect fails if the user [[priority|goes last]] in the turn.

The following moves cannot be stopped by Protect:

{| {| align="left" style="background: #{{normal color light}}; {{roundy|1em}}; border: 5px solid #{{normal color}};"
|-

===Generation IV===
Protect now has a minimum success rate of 12.5%, which corresponds to four consecutive turns.

In {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} only, if an attack is given perfect accuracy through the effect of a move ({{m|Lock-On}}/{{m|Mind Reader}}), the weather ({{m|Thunder}} in [[weather|Rain]], or {{m|Blizzard}} in [[weather|Hail]]), or an Ability ({{a|No Guard}}), it has a chance to hit through Protect equal to <code>(100 - move {{stat|accuracy}})%</code>. [[One-hit knockout move|OHKO]] moves are unaffected, and will never hit through Protect.

===Generation V===
Protect no longer has a minimum success rate, and still has 50% decay, which now includes {{m|Quick Guard}} and {{m|Wide Guard}} as well.<ref>[http://www.smogon.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3715158&postcount=772 Smogon forums]</ref>

The user is protected from all attacks for a set amount of turns, which ends on the user's turn. However, items such as [[toss items]] can still hit.

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation II]], after the "[Pokémon's name] protected itself!" message appears, another message saying that the opponent's Pokémon's move missed appears. The second message was removed in [[Generation III]], likely to avoid redundancy.

'''Fling''' (Japanese: '''なげつける''' ''Throw'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Dark}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation IV]]. It has been [[TM56]] since Generation IV.

==Effect==
The power of Fling is determined by the held item. The move will fail if the user has no held item, or if the item is not one listed below. After using Fling, the item disappears.

The power of Fling is calculated as:

BlackGlasses, Dread Plate, Muscle Band, and Choice Band boost the power of Fling. Expert Belt boosts the power of Fling if the attack is super effective. Life Orb boosts the power of Fling but does not reduce the user's HP. If the user hits its opponent with a Berry, the effect of the Berry will be activated. Additionally, some items will cause other effects when used with Fling:

Fling will fail if used by an {{p|Arceus}} holding a Plate or a {{p|Giratina}} holding the Griseous Orb, though neither Pokémon can normally have this move. It will also fail if used when the Pokémon is holding any type of [[Gem]], [[Poké Ball]], or [[Mail]]. An effect that prevents a Pokémon from using items will prevent the use of Fling; {{m|Embargo}}, {{a|Klutz}}, {{m|Knock Off}}, and {{a|Unnerve}} (if the Pokémon is holding a Berry) all prevent the usage of Fling.

===[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]===
The user seizes the nearest enemy Pokémon and throws it into another enemy, dealing 10 damage to both parties. This move is classified as "other" instead of Physical.

==Trivia==
* Fling, along with {{m|Fake Out}}, are the only moves that have a 100% chance of causing flinching, though a King's Rock or Razor Fang must be flung in order to cause flinching.
* Fling will fail if the user is holding a [[Poké Ball]] or any variant. This is probably to prevent confusion should a flung Poké Ball hit a wild Pokémon and do damage rather than try to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it.
* Fling is the only {{type|Dark}} able to cause {{status|paralysis}}, {{status|burn}}, or {{status|poison}}ing.
* In the anime, Fling can also be used to throw the remains of attacks, such as when [[Bianca's Emboar]] flung the remains of [[Trip's Conkeldurr]]'s {{m|Stone Edge}} at it. It can also be used to throw the opponent.

==Pokémon move articles==
===Updating===
Out of '''{{PAGESINCAT:Moves}}''' move articles:
*'''{{PAGESINCAT:Move stubs}}''' are {{bp|Stub}}s. Help out by [[:Category:Move stubs|adding information to them.]]
*'''{{PAGESINCAT:Moves in need of a screenshot}}''' are [[:Category:Moves in need of a screenshot|in need of a game screenshot]].
*'''{{PAGESINCAT:Moves used in the anime needing images}}''' moves used in the anime [[:Category:Moves used in the anime needing images|need images]], and

===Research===
In an attempt to keep all move effects properly documented and up-to-date, some articles may require in-game verification and research.
*If you spot a move article that seems to have an out-of-date effect description, or an incorrect/unclear one, add the following template to the '''Effect''' section of the article: <code><nowiki>{{MoveResearch|reason}}</nowiki></code> ''(make sure to fill in the "reason" variable.)''

An example of the template in use:
{{MoveResearch|move doesn't hit some Flying-types}}

*For those looking to help with research, there are currently '''{{PAGESINCAT:Moves in need of research}}''' moves requiring research. You can head [[:Category:Moves in need of research|here]] to get to work.
**When updating a move article with the updated information, make sure to remove the MoveResearch template, and post your results and/or methods to the move's talk page for future reference.

''Note that this template is for notification of moves in need of research, not for answering questions. Direct your move-related questions to the {{bp|spading}} page instead.''

Rainbow Shifter:

♥
Hello,

My name is Rainbow Shifter (but you can call me Jade). I am an admin over at Pokemon Wiki but please don't spam my talk page with hate messages. I am not here to vandalise or to steal information, but to help just like I do over at Wikia.

Sorry if my user page looks kinda ugly at first, I'm not very good with templates. If you have any questions then please ask, also I can answer in advanced English, French and some Japanese.

'''Red''' (Japanese: '''レッド''' ''Red'') is a main character in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]]. His first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} was a [[Poli]]wag, which [[evolution|evolved]] into a {{p|Poliwhirl}} when saving him from drowning prior to the beginning of the story, and evolved once more into a {{p|Poliwrath}} in ''[[PS011|Buzz off, Electabuzz!]]''

Red is eleven years old at the beginning of the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}. He is first seen in ''[[PS001|A Glimpse of the Glow]]'', when he shows a group of children the proper way to catch a Pokémon. He demonstrates by using his Poliwhirl to {{pkmn|battle}} a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{DL|Red (Adventures)|Nidorino}}. Red is very sentimental, as shown in the battle versus {{adv|Blue}} in the ninth annual [[Pokémon League]] tournament. He believes that defeating an opponent is no fun if they are at a disadvantage, as seen in both ''[[PS003|The Secret of Kangaskhan]]'' and ''[[PS023|Make Way for Magmar!]]''. At the beginning of the series, he is quite cocky, as shown in ''[[PS008|Suddenly Starmie]]''. However, this cockiness has subsided by the end of the RGB saga.

Red's special skill, as described by {{adv|Professor Oak}}, is Pokémon battling. As such, he is called the '''"[[Pokémon battle|Fighter]]"''' (戦う者 ''Fighter'').

In later adventures, Red has been viewed as a leader amongst the [[Pokédex holder]]s, second only to {{adv|Professor Oak}}.

==Character history==
==={{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}===
[[File:Red Adventures.png|left|thumb|100px|Red in the first chapter]]
In this saga, Red is the main protagonist, and his main rival is {{adv|Blue}}. Red was first seen showing off his catching abilities to a group of little kids, but once they mentioned {{adv|Professor Oak}} and {{adv|Blue|his grandson}}, they left. He then sees a few [[Team Rocket]] Grunts and overhears them talking about {{p|Mew}}. He manages to find it, only to see that Blue, who he didn't know yet, was already battling it with a {{TP|Blue|Charmander|Charizard}}. Seeing Blue quickly recalling his Pokémon angers Red to a point where he sends out his own [[Poli]]whirl on it and is easily defeated. He then receives some words of wisdom from Blue and decides to suck up his pride and go to see {{adv|Professor Oak}}.

Red enters the seemingly empty lab and notices a {{p|Bulbasaur}}, only to be found by Professor Oak and mistaken for a thief. All of the Professor's [[Poké Ball]]s are then set loose, and Red volunteers to get all of them back. He does so, except for one last Pokémon - the same {{p|Bulbasaur}} from earlier, which he eventually finds in the [[Viridian Gym]]. He manages to calm Bulbasaur down only to be attacked by a wild {{p|Machoke}}. Red then figures out how to use {{m|SolarBeam}} on his own, impressing Oak to the point of giving him a [[Pokédex]] and [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] to keep. He is then sent along by Professor Oak to capture as many Pokémon as he can, and encounters Blue again in [[Viridian Forest]]. The two boys fight over a {{p|Kangaskhan}}, and Red finally learns Blue's name and status as Oak's grandson, beginning a [[rival]]ry with him.

Red later manages to catch a menacing [[Pika]]chu that was destroying industry in [[Pewter City]]. He then runs into {{adv|Blue}} again, learns of the {{Badge|Boulder}} and decides to challenge [[Brock]] and earn Gym Badges. After blowing through the preliminaries with [[Saur]] and [[Poli]] Red realizes that he needs his newly caught Pikachu to beat [[Brock's Onix]]. After a rocky first part of the match, Red earns Pikachu's trust and he defeats Brock. He later encounters [[Misty]] and [[Gyara|her Gyarados]] which had been stolen and went into an intense rage, horribly injuring Misty and her {{p|Staryu}} in the process. After re-capturing the {{p|Gyarados}} for Misty, Red learns about [[Team Rocket]] through Misty and Oak, and sets off to [[Mt. Moon]] after them with Misty. They win a battle against Team Rocket even after the admin [[Koga]] uses an injection to make his {{p|Rhyhorn}} evolve into a {{p|Rhydon}}. While staying in [[Misty]]'s mansion, Misty defeats Red to make him see that they need to be stronger if they want to defeat Team Rocket. After several days of training, he defeats her and wins the {{Badge|Cascade}}.

After stowing away and getting kicked off the [[S.S. Anne]], Red meets the [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]], learning from him that his {{p|Abra}}, along with other Pokémon, are being stolen. This leads him back to the S.S. Anne, where he runs into the owner, [[Lt. Surge]]. Lt. Surge, another one of [[Team Rocket]]'s admins, throws Red and [[Poli]] overboard, only to trigger Poli's evolution into a {{p|Poliwrath}}, saving Red from drowning.

Later, Red enters a bike racing contest and uses his Pokémon to give him a good lead, until he and several of the racers are stopped dead by a {{p|Snorlax}}. By using his Bulbasaur covered in honey he catches the Snorlax and wins the race, however all of his prize money is spent to feed it. He then journeys into the Pokémon Tower in [[Lavender Town]] to rescue {{adv|Blue}} who has mysteriously disappeared. He finds Blue possessed by a {{p|Gastly}} owned by [[Koga]]. Red then watches Blue defeat and slice Koga's {{p|Arbok}} in half, and gains some respect towards Blue.

Later, Red is scammed out of his money for fake items by a mischievous girl called {{adv|Green}}. He chases her down and gets his money back, only to realize that his first two Badges, the {{Badge|Boulder}} and the {{Badge|Cascade}}, are gone. He then deduces that the stolen {{p|Squirtle}} mentioned by Professor Oak must have been taken by Green and evolved into {{p|Wartortle}}. Upon hearing some [[Team Rocket]] grunts mentioning her, Red infiltrates [[Team Rocket]] to see what they know about Green, and finds her surrounded by a group of Team Rocket members looking for a mysterious chip she stole, containing information about {{p|Mew}}. Even after everything {{adv|Green}} did to him, Red saves her from Team Rocket. After that, the two of them go after Mew only to find that Team Rocket made it to it again, and Red has to stall them in order for Mew to get away. After this altercation, Green leaves, but not before leaving Red's Badges entrusted in his pocket.

[[File:Red Adventures Running.png|right|thumb|290px|Red with his team in the first chapter]]
Red then accidentally gets his Pokémon swapped with {{adv|Blue}} near [[Celadon City]]. When he tries to battle with them they refuse to obey him, but later he decides to play with them while Blue trains Red's Pokémon with more exotic and useful moves. Blue's Pokémon become more kind to Red and more lighthearted overall, something that greatly annoys Blue when he gets his Pokémon back.

Red then goes to [[Erika]] and challenges her, but she first requires that he proves himself by catching an {{p|Eevee}}. Eventually, with {{adv|Bill}}'s help, Red finds and catches [[Vee|a strange Eevee]] with the ability to swap between any of its evolved forms, due to a special device implemented in its ear. He then goes to find Erika and asks why Eevee is like this, and challenges her to a Gym battle. Erika easily defeats Red, and says that she will kill Eevee due to its deformity. Once Red uses [[Pika]] to protect Eevee, Erika reveals that it was simply a test and the real people that made Eevee like this were [[Team Rocket]].

Red next visits the {{safari|Kanto}} in [[Fuchsia City]], and although he isn't supposed to do anything except watch, he smuggles in a [[Poké Ball]] and catches a {{p|Nidoqueen}}, angering two {{p|Nidoking}} that were fighting over her. He manages to escape them but is then taken by a {{p|Victreebel}} to be eaten for an evolution ritual for the {{p|Bellsprout}} and {{p|Weepinbell}}. He gets away from them only to run into the Nidoking again, resulting in a fight between Nidoking and the Victreebel. Red uses this to catch both Pokémon, and catches many others before he is finally found by the Safari Zone Warden.

He then unknowingly helps Rocket boss {{adv|Giovanni}}, whom he believes is just a researcher, get some [[Fossil]]s and get to [[Pewter City]] through [[Diglett's Cave]], only to see that Pewter Museum of Science is set ablaze by two {{p|Magmar}}. He battles the Magmar with Giovanni studying his moves. Giovanni eventually deduces Red is not a threat to Team Rocket since he lacks in cruelty, unfairness, and brutality. Red is then sent on his way, but not before Giovanni gives him an [[Old Amber]].

Wanting to reach the [[Seafoam Islands]], Red then goes to the bottom of a lake to retrieve the [[HM]] for {{m|Surf}}. He is instead confronted by a {{p|Dragonite}} and decides to use all of his other Pokémon to distract it, only to have their combined weight crush the HM and trap Red's leg under a rock. He is eventually rescued by [[Misty]], who appears and drives the Dragonite off with her {{TP|Misty|Starmie}} and [[Gyara]]dos. Misty then trades Red's {{p|Krabby}} for her Gyarados, who knows {{m|Surf}}. On Seafoam Islands, Red encounters Team Rocket again, who are searching for {{p|Articuno}}.

He then reaches [[Cinnabar Island]], spotting Team Rocket once more and secretly watching them battle [[Blaine]]'s Pokémon from the edge of a cliff. A member spots him and threatens to throw him off the cliff if he doesn't surrender. Blaine appears but with his Gyarados, and the two of them easily overpower the grunts until they reveal their secret weapon, a {{p|Moltres}}. The grunts disperse and Moltres gives chase to the two of them on Blaine's {{p|Rapidash}}. When nothing that they do works, Blaine spots Red's [[Old Amber]] and has him revive it as fast as he can. He gets it revived into an {{p|Aerodactyl}} and with that, he is able to drive Moltres away.

Later, when Red, {{adv|Blue}}, and {{adv|Green}} all fail to get into [[Saffron City]], Red goes to [[Pallet Town]] to ask for {{adv|Professor Oak}}'s advice, only to realize that there is nobody there except for [[Sabrina]] and her {{TP|Sabrina|Kadabra}}, masquerading as Oak. Sabrina, Team Rocket's third admin, then appears to him and pins him to the floor with her psychic powers, challenging him to go back to Saffron City. {{adv|Blue}} then arrives and tells him that Saffron must be [[Team Rocket]]'s headquarters, and they find out that [[Vee]] is missing. Saffron City is protected from invasion by a large {{t|psychic}} barrier, so with some urging from {{adv|Green}}, Red and Blue team up. With [[Pika]]'s {{m|Substitute}} and Blue's {{p|Golduck}}'s {{m|Confusion}}, the two of them locate the source of the {{m|barrier}}, Sabrina's {{p|Mr. Mime}}, and defeat it, allowing access to Saffron City.

After a trap door splits him up from Blue while inside [[Silph Co.]], Red runs into [[Lt. Surge]], who has been equipped with many gadgets involving electricity and {{type|Electric}} Pokémon, powered by {{p|Zapdos}}. Red sends out [[Saur]] in defense and uses {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut the electrical cords, causing Lt. Surge to get electrocuted. Red swipes the {{Badge|Thunder}} from him as well as a pair of gloves, and finds [[Koga]] standing victorious over {{adv|Blue}}. Red tries to stop Koga from killing Blue, but is restrained by Koga's {{p|Grimer}}. After a hard battle with the legendary {{p|Articuno}}, the same one that Red had saved earlier, the two boys defeat Koga. Red takes the {{Badge|Soul}} from him, and the two split up once again.

He runs into the Badge Energy Amplifier room, where he meets {{adv|Green}}, who hands him the {{Badge|Marsh}} in exchange for his {{evostone|Moon Stone}}. Red fits his seven Badges into the Amplifier and points it at his [[Pika]]chu, when Sabrina appears, and though he points it at Pikachu, the Amplifier does not work. Green then reveals that the two Badges that she returned to him earlier were fake, and escapes with the Amplifier, leaving Red to fight Sabrina. Zapdos, Moltres, and Articuno are merged together when Green inserts the real Badges in, creating [[Zapmolcuno|a new Pokémon]]. Combining their attacks, Red, Blue, and Green eventually defeat it.

Red then journeys back to [[Cerulean City]] to capture the "monster Pokémon", which turns out to be {{adv|Mewtwo}}. After attempting to catch it, Red and his Pokémon are almost sucked into Mewtwo's {{m|Psywave}}. They are saved by [[Blaine]], and Red uses his whole team to fool Mewtwo and catch it with a [[Master Ball]] for Blaine.

[[File:Red Frozen Adventures.png|right|thumb|Red frozen on [[Mt. Moon]]]]
Later, Red encounters {{adv|Yellow}} being attacked by a {{p|Dratini}} in [[Viridian Forest]]. He helps her catch a {{p|Rattata}} and explains how battling and catching Pokémon works. He takes her back to Viridian City and finds that Team Rocket has been releasing abused Pokémon into the Forest to make them stronger. He also learns that the Gym Leader there has been absent for a very long time. Entering the Gym, Red finally meets {{adv|Giovanni}} again, who reveals his true intentions behind the incident at Diglett's Cave. Giovanni then challenges Red with a catch: if Red loses he has to join Team Rocket. After a very intense and long battle, Red defeats Giovanni. He is offered to become the new [[Gym Leader]] of Viridian, but he first wishes to become a better Trainer and goes off to [[Indigo Plateau]].

With the Badges he gained, Red is able to enter the Pokémon League, where he faces {{adv|Blue}} in the final match. Just as Oak notes how Blue has become more instinctual like Red, Red in turn has become more calm and is able to use knowledge as well as instinct. He defeats Blue and his {{TP|Blue|Charizard}} with [[Saur]] and emerges as the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the 9th Pokémon League competition. This makes him interesting to the [[Elite Four]], who are watching the battle from the side.

==={{chap|Yellow}}===
At the beginning of the second chapter, two years after the end of the previous chapter, Red receives an invitation to battle [[Bruno]] of the [[Elite Four]] at [[Mt. Moon]]. During the battle, Bruno stops to let several Diglett and Dugtrio pass and then Agatha uses her mind controlling powers over him to render him incapable of further battle. Red is then confronted by [[Lorelei]] and [[Agatha]], who want him to join them in their quest to wipe out humanity for the sake of Pokémon. They also want information about Giovanni so they can find the {{Badge|Earth}} to power the Badge Energy Amplifier that Agatha retrieved at the [[Silph Co.]] rubble. When he tells the truth, [[Lorelei]] freezes him in a block of ice, making everybody think that he has disappeared since nobody else had seen him for over a month. Only [[Pika]] escapes and makes it to {{adv|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|laboratory]], where he teams up with {{adv|Yellow}}.

Red's frozen ice sculpture is found by [[Brock]] in [[Mt. Moon]], but Red is nowhere to be found. Even [[Bruno]], looking for Red so they could finish the battle that they started, can't trace him. As revealed at the end of the chapter, {{adv|Giovanni}} eventually rescued Red, enabling him to seek out his friends and help them fight the [[Elite Four]] on [[Cerise Island]]. Red arrives just in time to save {{adv|Bill}} and [[Lt. Surge]], finally finishing his battle with [[Bruno]].

==={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}===
[[File:Gold Red Mt Silver.png|left|thumb|Red and Gold heading off to Mt. Silver at the end of the third chapter]]
Red is offered the newly open position of [[Viridian City]] [[Gym Leader]], and even though he passes the test easily, he has to turn it down due to injuries he suffered from being frozen. He is also asked to help {{adv|Yellow}} deal with finding {{p|Lugia}} in [[Johto]], but also turns it down for the same reason. He learns from {{adv|Blue}} where to heal his wounds and leaves to recuperate at the springs in [[Mt. Silver]] with [[Blue's Charizard]] and [[Blasty|Green's Blastoise]], where he meets [[Sabrina]], also there to heal the same injuries. Sabrina informs him of the Gym Leaders meeting in the Pokémon League, and he later arrives at the scene in time to save {{adv|Blue}}, [[Brock]], and [[Erika]] from a [[Magnet Train|train]] crash.

Red and Blue then travel underground with Blue's new {{p|Rhydon}} towards [[Ilex Forest]], where the villainous [[Masked Man]] headed. Along the way, they meet [[Bruno]] and [[Koga]], two former enemies, who help them on their way and tell them about {{p|Celebi}}.

When they arrive at [[Ilex Forest]], Red, Blue, and the other main characters then team up with several [[legendary Pokémon]] to help fight the [[Masked Man]]. During the battle Red finally learns that {{adv|Yellow}} is a girl. At the end of the story, {{adv|Gold}} becomes impressed with Red and goes to train under him at Mt. Silver.

==={{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}===
[[File:Red FRLG Chapter Adventures.png|thumb|right|150px|Red in the fifth chapter]]
From this chapter onwards, Red wears the new FireRed jacket and hat along with the same shoes and jeans from previously.

Red and Blue meet at {{adv|Professor Oak}}'s lab, where they find messages mysteriously asking them to leave their Pokédexes and head to [[Vermilion City]]. Once there, the two board the [[Seagallop Ferries|Seagallop Ferry]] to the [[Sevii Islands]], where they also find {{adv|Green}} being attacked by {{p|Deoxys}}. They are soon confronted by the new [[Team Rocket]] Admins, the [[The Three Beasts|Beast Warrior Trio]], as well as {{p|Deoxys}}, who is under control of Giovanni. As it turns out, {{adv|Professor Oak}} has been kidnapped by Team Rocket again.

Red undergoes special training under [[Kimberly]] on [[Boon Island]], where his [[Saur|Venusaur]] learns the legendary {{type|Grass}} move {{m|Frenzy Plant}}. However, he is still defeated by Deoxys, who he shares a strange connection with. Red loses his confidence, but eventually regains the will to fight in order to understand the meaning of his connection to Deoxys.

[[File:Red E Chapter Adventures.png|thumb||145px|left|Red in the sixth chapter]]
{{adv|Mewtwo}} shows up and offers to battle under Red's command to get revenge on Deoxys. The two arrive at the Team Rocket helicopter hovering above [[Viridian City]], where Giovanni is searching for his long-lost son. After a very long and fierce battle, Mewtwo manages to defeat Deoxys. However, victory is short as [[Carr]], one of the Beast Warrior Trio, rebels against Team Rocket and, after placing his {{p|Forretress}} all over the helicopter and ordering them to use {{m|Explosion}}, takes over the helicopter. While Deoxys transports everyone else aboard to safety, Red stays behind to defeat the Forretress and stop the aircraft from blowing up over [[Vermilion City]]. In the process, he discovers that Deoxys absorbed a sample of his blood when it broke free from Team Rocket's lab.

At the end of the chapter, Red is turned to stone along with the other main characters by [[Sird]]'s beam intended for Deoxys.

==={{chap|Emerald}}===
Red, along with Blue, Green, Silver, and Yellow, were transported as statues in boxes on the [[S.S. Tidal]] by the other main characters to the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} for their salvation. For most of this chapter, Red, along with four other Pokédex holders, remained frozen in stone. It was only towards the end of the chapter that he and the others were liberated by {{adv|Emerald}} with the help of the wish-granting [[legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Jirachi}}. Free again, Red and the others helped fight [[Guile Hideout]]. In the aftermath of the battle, Red and the other Pokédex holders participated in the Battle Dome tournament, which ultimately concluded in Emerald claiming the Tactics Symbol.

==={{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}===
Red makes a brief cameo appearance in a flashback when Gold talks about his training with him on Mt. Silver in the {{chap|Gold, Silver, & Crystal}}.

Red's Pokémon nicknames are taken from two syllables from their Japanese language-version names.

After Red, from his curiosity to see this so-called "Monster of Cerulean," ended up joining the battle, Blaine's attempts at killing it to no avail. Red, however, succeeds in hitting it with the inescapable {{ball|Master}} using Pika, and tells Blaine to teach it love and compassion after leaving it in his care.

Much later, long after it was released from Blaine's ownership, Mewtwo reappears in the [[Sevii Islands]] to serve as a partner for Red's battle with Giovanni, succeeding in defeating him and {{adv|Deoxys}} in an epic clash. Later, after Red allowed Deoxys to be freed from the Rockets, Mewtwo and the five Pokédex holders intercept the beam Sird meant to hit Deoxys with, and its resulting fate is not yet revealed.}}

==Badges obtained==
===Indigo League===
Red only has seven of the eight Kanto Gym Badges. Although he defeated {{adv|Giovanni}} at [[Viridian Gym]], he has not obtained the {{Badge|Earth}}.

The Badges Red has obtained were not won in the traditional order. He earned them as follows:

* {{Badge|Boulder}} in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]''
* {{Badge|Cascade}} in ''[[PS008|Suddenly Starmie]]''
* {{Badge|Rainbow}} in ''[[PS020|Meanvile...Vileplume!]]''
* {{Badge|Volcano}} in ''[[PS026|Holy Moltres]]''
* {{Badge|Thunder}} in ''[[PS030|Zap! Zap! Zapdos!]]''
* {{Badge|Soul}} in ''[[PS031|The Art of Articuno]]''
* {{Badge|Marsh}} in ''[[PS032|A Little Kadabra'll Do It]]''

==Trivia==
* Red's Pokémon were not nicknamed in [[VIZ Media]]'s translations of [[Pokémon Adventures]], with the exception of [[Pika]]. Their English nicknames were first officially used in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translations of the ''FireRed and LeafGreen'' chapter.
** However, VIZ has recently begun to use nicknames for Red's other Pokémon beginning in {{PAV|9}}.
* Red has same birth month and blood type as his main nemesis, {{adv|Giovanni}}.

People of the Water

2013-02-15T19:20:52Z

Rainbow Shifter:

{{incomplete|needs=Image}}
The '''People of the Water''' (Japanese: '''水の民''' ''People in the Water'') were a race of people in the [[Pokémon anime]]. Very little is known of their culture or their civilization.

As their name implies, the People were connected to the ocean, either living near or in it. They are apparently an extinct clan, with [[Lizabeth]], [[Ship]], and Lizabeth's parents {{mov|Kyle}} and [[Meredith]] as the only known remaining descendants. They are characterized as having dark skin color and various shades of blue or black hair.

The People of the Water possessed surprisingly advanced technology or mechanisms that are activated by special crystals, which when activated are capable of performing a multitude of tasks, from opening doors to keeping the [[Samiya|Sea Temple]] from sinking. They are the makers of Samiya and the [[Sea Crown]].

Half Deck (TCG)

2013-02-15T19:20:25Z

Rainbow Shifter:

The '''half deck''' is a trend among [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|Pokémon TCG]] players, particularly in Japan. In half deck play, both players use a 30-card deck instead of a traditional 60-card one and lay out three Prize cards instead of six. The format caught on quickly, in part because there is very limited space in most Japanese TCG Leagues and also because the games take less time and will be able to hold a person's interest longer. Although no major tournaments, either in the United States or overseas, are currently played in half deck format, there have been numerous {{cat|TCG half decks|official half decks}} released in Japan.

Possibly as a result of the half deck playstyle, Japan currently uses 40-card decks and four Prize cards for tournament play.

}}
'''Pyrite Town''' (Japanese: '''パイラタウン''' ''Pyra Town'') is a large town located in southwest [[Orre]]. The town is hewn out of a crimson-colored canyon and is laced with bits of old trash and mining debris, the latter a reminder of the town's mining past. Most buildings and machinery found within Pyrite are saturated with rust.

Pyrite is an honorable town of thugs and scoundrels where [[Shadow Pokémon]] were once distributed before [[Wes]] and [[Rui]], the protagonists of {{g|Colosseum}}, put a stop to it. Once a mining town, most of the residents have resorted to a life of crime since the town's livelihood began to wane. However, rumors about the levels of crime in Pyrite appear to be exaggerated slightly. It is said that people who stay in Pyrite for a long time take on the town's characteristics. Pyrite is known locally as "the town of earth, wind, and money".

A large chasm separates [[Pyrite Colosseum]] from the rest of the town; however, a bridge over the chasm provides access between the two areas. The chasm extends as deep as [[The Under]], a subterranean city situated directly beneath Pyrite. Originally, The Under and Pyrite Town were twin cities of a mining community. However, traffic between The Under and Pyrite Town slowed to a trickle once the mine was closed. After the events of Pokémon Colosseum, The Under's residents moved upward to Pyrite and The Under itself was filled in; however, the Pyrite portion of the chasm remains.

The town's police department is based in a nondescript building on the southern edge of town. It, along with the jail inside, is manned by [[Chief Sherles]] and the incompetent [[Officer Johnson]].

==History==
Pyrite Town is an old mining town.

==Places of interest==
===Duel Square===
Duel Square is a location in the center of Pyrite Town where roughneck [[Pokémon Trainer]]s gather for battles. Outsiders to Pyrite Town soon find that they literally can't say "no" to the challenges of the local Pokémon Trainers.

===Duking's house===
[[Duking]]'s house is in the southwestern portion of Pyrite. Duking is the closest thing Pyrite has to a leader or mayor; however, that appears to be because of his size rather than a formal election. Underneath Duking's house was one of the [[Kids Grid]] nodes.

===Fateen's Fortune Telling===
At the very southern edge of the town is [[Fateen]]'s Fortune Telling. The old woman, Fateen, is also known as "the mother of Pyrite Town". Most of the locals look to her for advice in nearly every aspect of their lives. If [[Wes]] and [[Rui]] or [[Michael]] visit Fateen, she will give them hints on where to go next to progress the storyline.

===Miror B.'s Hideout / ONBS===
:''Main articles: [[Miror B.'s Hideout]], [[ONBS]]''
Overshadowing the southeastern edge of the chasm is a three-story building that was abandoned until [[Miror B.]] turned it into [[Miror B.'s Hideout|his hideout]] prior to the events of [[Pokémon Colosseum]]. Once Miror B. was defeated by Wes and Rui, the building remained empty again until the former members of the [[Kids Grid]] converted the building into the home of [[ONBS]] sometime prior to the events of {{Pokémon XD}}. Like the Kids Grid, ONBS has a noticeable anti-[[Cipher]] mindset.

===Pyrite Colosseum===
{{main|Pyrite Colosseum}}
Pyrite Colosseum is located in the northernmost part of town; in fact, it is the only building located north of the chasm. Although it appears to be dilapidated, it is still functional. [[Miror B.]] once dispensed [[Shadow Pokémon]] to Trainers who won challenges in the Colosseum.

The Colosseum, as well as most of the town, is powered by a windmill-driven power station on the southwestern edge of the chasm.

===Pyrite Super Grand Hotel===
The Pyrite Super Grand Hotel is located in western Pyrite across from the [[Poké Mart]]. A one-night stay at the Super Grand costs {{pdollar}}100. Unlike most of Pyrite, the building is fairly upscale in nature.

In Colosseum, Duking will give Wes his {{p|Plusle}} to the player to make sure the Pokémon stays safe. In XD, Duking will trade his {{p|Meditite}}, {{p|Larvitar}} and his {{p|Shuckle}} for the three rarest Pokémon available at the [[Poké Spots]].

==Development==
Concept art reveals that the bridge over the chasm was not in the original plans for the town. Instead, the player would have to travel through the mines to the east to reach the colosseum. The colosseum was initially a globe that towered over the town. The dilapidated look was added later and the ground it stands on was placed at a much lower level.

Hello,

My name is Rainbow Shifter (but you can call me Jade). I am an admin over at Pokemon Wiki but please don't spam my talk page with hate messages. I am not here to vandalise or to steal information, but to help just like I do over at Wikia.

Sorry if my user page looks kinda ugly at first, I'm not very good with templates. If you have any questions then please ask, also I can answer in advanced English, French and some Japanese.

'''Golett''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴビット''' ''Gobit'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Ghost}} Pokémon.

It [[evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Golurk}} starting at [[level]] 43.

==Biology==
{{incomplete|section|Behavior and Habitat}}
===Physiology===
Golett is blue, with it changing from dark to light blue throughout its appearance. It has a head with a cyan-colored "fin" topping the head, and two bewitching, yellow "eyes".

==In the anime==
[[File:Tate and Liza anime.png|thumb|250px|Liza and Tate in the anime]]
Tate and Liza first appeared in ''[[AG099|It's Still Rocket Roll to Me]]''. Their father, [[Jin]], owns the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] and often goes into space to search for space Pokémon. As a result, they often spend time at the Space Center, and even have battles in zero-gravity by using their {{p|Baltoy}}'s {{m|Confusion}} technique to levitate them.

In the anime, Liza is depicted as being more experienced in battle, and it is implied in their debut episode that she always defeats Tate whenever the two have a battle. Liza loves to annoy Tate by teasingly reminding him of such things, but what angers Tate even more is Liza's habit of referring to him as her "little" brother even though they are twins. This is because Liza is actually the older twin. Nevertheless, Liza seems to care for Tate anyway.

When [[Ash Ketchum]] and {{ashfr}} visited Mossdeep, Tate quickly befriended [[Max]] since they had quite a few things in common, including Max's issues with his own older sister, {{an|May}}. Said episode itself focuses primarily on Tate and Max, who spent nearly the entire time by themselves while having fun together. Likewise, Liza related with May, and took to showing her new friends around the facility.

Later, while Tate and Max were hanging out in the cockpit of the space shuttle, Team Rocket infiltrated the area with the intent of stealing the shuttle. Tate and Max were unaware of this until the trio reached the cockpit, whereupon Meowth tied the two boys up back-to-back with a rope. Fortunately, [[Ash's Corphish]] had been aboard the shuttle as well, and freed the duo, who promptly knocked the Rockets out. In the moments that followed, Tate and Max became the heroes of the day when they safely landed the shuttle. The Rockets then suffered the wrath of Liza and May, who attacked them with their Lunatone and Combusken, respectively, allowing [[Ash's Pikachu]] to send them flying.

In ''[[AG100|Solid as a Solrock]]'', Tate and Liza finally faced of against Ash in a [[Double Battle]], in which their Lunatone and Solrock, respectively, were up against Ash's Pikachu and {{AP|Swellow}}. At first, they continuously argued with each other, which allowed their opponent to get hits in. However, after another attack by Team Rocket, the twins managed to work together. In the battle that followed, they showed an incredible ability to balance each other's Pokémon, becoming a seemingly unstoppable force that Ash had to resort to unorthodox tactics in order to defeat. Eventually, Pikachu and Swellow used Pikachu's {{m|Thunder}} attack as armor, and with this newly-founded power, they easily defeated Lunatone and Solrock, earning Ash the Mind Badge.

Baltoy's only known move is {{m|Confusion}}.}}

Liza and Tate are the guardians of [[Mt. Pyre]]. When they somehow sensed someone had intruded into Mt. Pyre, they went all the way to Lilycove from Mossdeep in order to protect the two Orbs. However, they fell into [[Mack]]'s fire illusion until [[Juan]] rescued them. Afterwards, they become {{adv|Ruby}}'s and {{adv|Sapphire}}'s teachers in Double Battling on the Mirage Island. They stayed on the island to ensure Ruby and Sapphire can leave for Sootopolis safely, and were not seen since then.

** In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, instead of serving as a team, Tate and Liza are shown and battled separately.
* They are the only {{type|Psychic}} specialists to never use {{p|Abra}}'s evolution family.
* Chuang Yi's translations of [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga mistakenly refer to Tate as a girl.
* They are the only Gym Leaders to carry two [[Hyper Potion]]s in their first battle. This is likely due to them being a duo, with each of them holding a Hyper Potion.
* The game refers to them as "<sc>Leader Tate&Liza</sc>" due to the way their Trainer class is programmed.
* In Emerald, Solrock is the only Pokémon from the original team to keep its moveset in the rematches.

Gym Leader

2013-02-11T13:42:42Z

Rainbow Shifter: /* In the manga */

A '''Gym Leader''' (Japanese: '''ジムリーダー''' ''Gym Leader'') is the highest ranking member of a Pokémon [[Gym]]. The main job of a Gym Leader is to test {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and their Pokémon so that they are strong and resourceful enough to compete against the [[Elite Four]] in the games or the [[Pokémon League]] in the anime. If a Trainer defeats a Gym Leader in battle, then the Trainer earns that Gym's [[Badge]].

A Gym Leader's job is not just to test upcoming Trainers. They must oversee how their respective Gym is run and to maintain it. Great care must be taken to make sure that their Gym reflects the best environment for the Pokémon [[type]] and playing style of choice, usually an environment that suits that type of Pokémon used there (like pools in a {{type|Water}} Gym or flowers and plants in a {{type|Grass}} Gym). According to [[Morty]], teaching young people how to battle with Pokémon can also be the job of a Gym Leader.

It has not exactly been made clear how Gym Leaders attain their position, but it appears that it varies for each Gym. Some of them founded their Gym and are self-appointed; others, such as [[Whitney]], are chosen by the other members of the region's Pokémon League. A few appear to be passed on through families: [[Janine]], [[Falkner]], and [[Flannery]] all take over their respective Gyms from a close family member. However, Gyms do not necessarily belong to a particular family; [[Roark]] and his father [[Byron]] are both Gym Leaders at the same time, in different Gyms. Leaders can also choose to vacate their position; examples include [[Koga]], [[Giovanni]], and [[Wallace]].

Although similar in nature, [[Frontier Brain]]s are not considered Gym Leaders.

==Pokémon used==
Almost all Leaders rely on a single [[type]] of Pokémon. For example, [[Erika]] uses only {{type|Grass}} Pokémon in official Gym battles. Some Leaders, however, stray from this mold, albeit rarely. This is evidenced by the different types used by {{ga|Blue}} during his reign as the Gym Leader of the [[Viridian Gym]] in Generation II and IV, although he is the only Gym Leader to do so. However, many Gym Leaders have one or two Pokémon that stray from their type theme.

Geography and climate can often be connected to the type of Pokémon the Gym Leader of that area uses. [[Pastoria Gym]] Leader, [[Crasher Wake]], uses {{type|Water}} Pokémon, a direct allusion to the flooded marsh that surrounds the area and the constant downpour that plagues [[Pastoria City]]. Another example of this is the [[Cinnabar Gym]] Leader, [[Blaine]], who uses {{type|Fire}} Pokémon and lives in a volcanic area.

The character archetype can also reflect the type of Pokémon a Leader uses. For example, [[Roark]] and [[Byron]] are both miners, who use the related {{t|Rock}}- and {{type|Steel}} Pokémon. [[Tate and Liza]] could be based on the archetype of twins who can communicate telepathically, and thus train {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon and being twins, they also battle opposing Trainers in Double Battles, being the only leaders to do so.

==In the games==
[[File:Vs Brawly.png‎|frame|right|Leader [[Brawly]] challenges the player]]A '''Leader''' (Japanese: '''ジムリーダー''' ''Gym Leader'') is the [[Trainer class]] name the [[Pokémon games]] give Gym Leaders during battles. Despite Gym Leaders themselves being introduced in [[Generation I]], the name did not appear onscreen until [[Generation II]], and has been incorporated into every game since. Gym Leaders are integral within the Pokémon universe. In order for one to advance in the game, the player must occasionally challenge and defeat the leader of a [[Gym]]. Each game is designed in such a way that the player will not be able to move forward until they receive a [[Badge|Gym Badge]] which will, in turn, either allow them to use a [[HM]] to overcome natural obstacles, or trigger a necessary event to continue with the game. It is one of the player's main objectives to collect eight Gym Badges, allowing him or her to challenge the [[Elite Four]].

Leaders do not seem to be required to be in their Gyms at all times. [[Giovanni]], for example, could keep his title as a Gym Leader despite not being at the [[Viridian Gym]] during the majority of the events of [[Generation I]], and his successor, {{ga|Blue}}, was also absent from the Gym several times. Beginning in [[Generation IV]], Leaders are increasingly encountered outside of their Gyms, evident in the remakes {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, where the Leaders have to be found in different locations at specific times before they can [[Pokégear#Gym Leader phone listing|exchange phone numbers]] with the player for a [[Fighting Dojo#Gym Leader Rematch Schedule|rematch at the Fighting Dojo]]. Some Leaders even appear across regions, such as [[Jasmine]] appearing in [[Sunyshore City]], [[Crasher Wake]] on {{rt|47|Johto}}, and [[Maylene]] in [[Celadon City]]. Leaders can even challenge other Gyms and the [[Elite Four]] (like [[Volkner]] wanted to do). In later games, it is made apparent that Gym Leaders know each other and are acquainted with Gym Leaders from other regions, as well as with members of the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}}s. Examples of this are Jasmine being friends with [[Erika]], Volkner being friends with {{EF|Flint}}, [[Brawly]] training with [[Bruno]], and most [[Unova]] Gym Leaders coming together to fight [[Team Plasma]]'s [[Seven Sages]].

===Gym Trainers===
In addition to Gym Leaders, there are also Gym Trainers. While not an official [[Trainer class]], they are Trainers that are either a devotee or apprentice to the Gym Leader, who follow the same type theme as the Leader does. It is usually necessary to defeat multiple Gym Trainers before challenging the Gym Leader. Some Gyms in the game require the player to solve a puzzle, and one must often use Gym Trainers as obstacles to reach the solution. They have no direct impact on the overall plot, other than rarely offering the player helpful advice. It is also worth noting that the type of {{pkmn|Trainer}} appearing in a Gym will depend on the Gym itself. For instance, [[Gardenia]] employs {{tc|Aroma Lady|Aroma Ladies}} and {{tc|Beauty|Beauties}}, exclusively, while [[Misty]] recruits {{tc|Tuber}}s and {{tc|Swimmer}}s; these Gym Leaders represent the [[type]]s {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Water}}, respectively.

==In the anime==
{{incomplete|section}}
Since there seem to be many more [[Gym]]s in the anime than in other media, as evidenced by many Badges that do not belong to Gyms shown in other media, it follows that there would be many more Gym Leaders.

In the anime, Gym Leaders seem to be forbidden from [[Recall|switching]] their Pokémon. Those that Ash encountered before [[Blaine]] did switch; however, since {{Ash}}'s match against Blaine in ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'', only [[Lenora]] has switched out a Pokémon. In the games, they may switch their Pokémon as often as any other Trainer, itself a considerably rare event.

A notable occurrence in the anime is that one does not necessarily have to defeat the Gym Leader to obtain a Badge. Badges are given out on a case by case basis based on whether the Gym Leader feels that the Trainer has earned it. Examples include Ash winning his early Gym Badges, not by defeating the Gym Leader, but with other selfless acts such as rescuing Erika's Pokémon from a burning Gym.

There is also an entire league exclusive to the anime where the Gym Leaders all have special requirements in order to gain their Gym Badges, the [[Orange League]].

==In the manga==
{{incomplete|section|Needs other manga to be added.}}
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, Gym Leaders have the same jobs as in the games and anime, but are also shown to throw away their role as Leader and pursue other goals. Some Gym Leaders even become evil, such as [[Koga]], [[Lt. Surge]], [[Sabrina]], and [[Pryce]]. In order to become a Gym Leader in ''Adventures'', one needs to fight a Trainer chosen by the [[Pokémon Association]] and win in front of them without letting one of their own Pokémon faint. The one exception to this rule seen so far has been by {{adv|Blue}} when he defended the building where {{adv|Red}} took his exam, since Red had to decline becoming a Gym Leader due to an injury, despite having passed the exam. Some Gym Leaders have jobs outside of their Gyms, but some of them focus solely on training their skills.

Gym Leaders are highly respected in their respective home regions and usually in other regions as well. When crises emerge, it is highly propable for Gym Leaders to gather to discuss about the situation that has befallen the region and what to do with it, with the most well-known example being the Hoenn Gym Leaders gathering at [[Fortree City]] during the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}} to decide which team—[[Team Magma]] or [[Team Aqua]]—they should support. They also tend to help [[Pokédex holder]]s to fight the villains behind different crises, a great example being the Sinnoh Gym Leaders fighting [[Team Galactic]] at [[Spear Pillar]] near the end of the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}.
All of the [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] Gym Leaders were called up for a tournament held at [[Indigo Plateau]] (which was interrupted by the [[Masked Man]]) to fight as teams to see which region had stronger Gym Leaders. The Kanto team won with four wins, three losses and one draw.

==Trivia==
* Every Gym Leader that specializes in {{t|Rock}}-, {{t|Ghost}}-, and {{type|Steel}} Pokémon uses {{p|Geodude}}, {{p|Gengar}}, and {{p|Steelix}} respectively in battle.
* Even though there are 43 known Gyms in the games, with 50 Gym Leaders among them, there has not yet been a Gym specializing in {{type|Dark}} Pokémon, although there have been three [[Elite Four]] members; [[Karen]], [[Sidney]], and [[Grimsley]]. Each of the sixteen other types has been repeated at least once, and {{t|Water}}- and {{type|Electric}} specialist Gyms appear in four of the five regions.
* The only Gym Leaders so far whose parents have been seen in the anime are [[Brock]], [[Sabrina]], [[Tate and Liza]], and [[Roark]]. They all train either {{t|Rock}}- or {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.
** Among those, Roark is the only one whose mother has not been seen in the anime.
** Janine, Roark, Maylene, Cheren and Roxie are the only ones who have a parent the {{player}} can encounter in the games. Koga, Giovanni, Norman, and Byron are the only Gym Leaders whose children can be encountered, or in Norman's case, played as, in the games.
** Other in-game relatives of Gym Leaders include Clair's [[Lance|cousin]] and Blue's [[Professor Oak|grandfather]] and [[Daisy Oak|sister]]. Additionally, Tate and Liza are brother and sister, while Cilan, Chili, and Cress are brothers.
* For ''[[DP009|Setting the World on Its Buneary]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Gym Leaders. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about them: ジムリーダー　いのちをかけて　かかってこい ''Jimu Rīdā / Inochi o kakete / Kakatte koi'' "Gym Leader, put your life on the line and challenge me".
* In the Johto saga of the anime, none of the Gym Leaders had the exact same lineups as they do in the games.
* Three of the six first Gyms are Rock-type Gyms.
* Three of the six Gyms whose Badge appears seventh in the Badge case specialize in Ice-type Pokémon and are located in the northern reaches of their respective regions.
** In Generation II and IV, [[Cinnabar Gym]], the seventh Gym of Kanto, is located in an icy location, the [[Seafoam Islands]], due to the original building being destroyed by a volcano.
* In the games, every Gym Leader has at least one Pokémon in his or her party that knows the [[TM]] move he or she gives out upon defeat. Former Gym Leaders do not count in this, as Wallace when he is faced as Champion and Giovanni when he is faced in Generation IV do not have Pokémon that know the move they gave out as TMs when they were faced as Gym Leaders in previous games. Koga, despite not being a Gym Leader in Generation IV, has several Pokémon that know Toxic, the move he last gave out as a TM.
* In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the player can continue the game without defeating [[Winona]] of [[Fortree City]] until attempting to battle the Elite Four.
* The Hoenn Gym Leaders are the only Gym Leaders not to have VS sprites, since these sprites were not introduced until [[Generation IV]] and the Pokémon World Tournament does not use VS sprites.
* The Orange League is the only one so far in which Ash has successfully defeated all the Gym Leaders without a rematch.

Elite Four

2013-02-11T13:42:36Z

Rainbow Shifter: /* In the manga */

The '''Elite Four''' (Japanese: {{tt|'''四天王'''|shitennō}} ''{{wp|Four Heavenly Kings}}'') are four [[Pokémon Trainer]]s who are regarded as the toughest in their [[region]]al [[Pokémon League]], short of the [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. Those who challenge the Elite Four must have won all eight [[Badge]]s from that region and face all four and the current Champion consecutively without losing to any of them.

One group resides on [[Indigo Plateau]] in [[Kanto]], and are considered the best Trainers in both Kanto and [[Johto]]; another is in [[Ever Grande City]] in [[Hoenn]]; two more reside at the unnamed Pokémon Leagues in {{si|Pokémon League|Sinnoh}} and {{un|Pokémon League|Unova}}.

==Kanto/Johto Elite Four==
===Generation I and III===
In the [[Generation I]] {{pkmn|games}} {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, and their [[Generation III]] [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|remakes]], the Elite Four at [[Indigo Plateau]] consists of:

==In the anime==
[[File:Sinnoh Elite Four.png|thumb|220px|right|The Sinnoh Elite Four in the anime]]
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} infrequently meet the members of the Elite Four, who then impart them with battle strategies. So far, Ash has encountered the complete [[Kanto]] group:
* [[Lorelei]] in ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss Match]]'' (named 'Prima' in the English dub)
* [[Bruno]] in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected]]''
* [[Agatha]] in ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]''
* [[Lance]] in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]'' (mentioned to be the {{pkmn|Champion}} rather than a regular member of the Elite Four)
Ash has also met [[Koga]] in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', though merely as [[Fuchsia City]]'s Gym Leader and not as an Elite Four member.

From [[Hoenn]], Ash has met:
* {{EF|Drake}} in ''[[AG101|Vanity Affair]]''

Ash has also met the entire [[Sinnoh]] Elite Four as well:
* {{EF|Aaron}} in ''[[DP099|A Trainer and Child Reunion!]]''
* [[Bertha]] in ''[[DP170|An Elite Coverup!]]''
* {{EF|Flint}} in ''[[DP165|Flint Sparks the Fire!]]''
* [[Lucian]] in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]''

In [[Unova]], Ash has met:
* [[Caitlin]] in ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]''.

It has been stated by [[Lucian]] in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'' that when a Trainer wins their respective region's [[Pokémon League Conference|Conference Tournament]], they can participate in the Champion League, fighting the four members of that region's Elite Four, and then possibly the Champion as well.

==In the manga==
{{incomplete|section|Needs other manga to be added.}}
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Kanto Elite Four Adventures.png|110px|thumb|Kanto Elite Four in Pokémon Adventures]]
The Kanto Elite Four made their first appearance in ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'' watching the final battle between {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} before serving as the primary antagonists for the {{chap|Yellow}} of the manga. They are each said to be so powerful that triad leaders of [[Team Rocket]], [[Koga]], [[Lt. Surge]], and [[Sabrina]] all had to (begrudgingly) team up with the protagonists and [[Blaine]] to take just a single one of them.

The Johto Elite Four is formed at the end of the {{chap|Gold, Silver, & Crystal}}. It consists of accomplished Pokémon Trainers that were formerly part of criminal organizations, who would eventually rise as the official Elite Four of [[Indigo Plateau]]. Will, Bruno, Karen, and Koga united to train together after they were no longer being controlled. They reappeared in the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} participating on the [[Pokéathlon]] and later fighting against {{DL|Lance's Dragonite|In the Pokémon Adventures manga|Lance's Dragonite}}.
[[File:PS245.png|left|thumb|Hoenn Elite Four and Champion in Pokémon Adventures]]
The Hoenn Elite Four made an appearance in the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, helping to find and catch the [[legendary golems]] in order to contain the massive surge of energy created by the clash of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} alongside {{Steven}} and [[Wallace]], their two regional {{pkmn|Champion}}s.

The first Sinnoh Elite Four member to debut in the series was {{EF|Flint}}, who made a cameo appearance in the last round of the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}. The other members appeared in the {{chap|Platinum}}, where they were enlisted by the [[Pokémon Association]] Chairman to decode the ancient writings in [[Charon]]'s memobook.

The Unova Elite Four first appeared in the {{chap|Black & White}} as {{adv|Black}} cites them during his daily pledge. However, they haven't appeared to the main characters as a group yet. Besides [[Caitlin]], who already appeared in the Platinum chapter, [[Grimsley]] meets Black, [[Shauntal]] meets {{adv|White}} and [[Marshal]] meets both on different occasions.
{{left clear}}

==Trivia==
* In the Kanto-based games, every Elite Four member has at least one Pokémon not of their specialty type during the first battle.
* The Hoenn Elite Four members are the only ones that don't have higher level Pokémon in future rematches with them in any game.
* Prior to {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the Elite Four typically progressed in level with their Pokémon in the games. The rematch teams in HeartGold and SoulSilver don't progress in level like in all previous games and even the pre-Kanto teams used by the same Elite Four. In [[Generation V]], all members of the Elite Four use Pokémon of the same levels, as they can be challenged in any order.
* In Platinum, the highest-leveled Pokémon of Bertha, Flint, and Lucian ({{p|Rhyperior}}, {{p|Magmortar}}, and {{p|Gallade}}, respectively) match the final Pokémon that the [[Sinis Trio]] uses from [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], in that same order.
** Also, Aaron's highest-leveled Pokémon, {{p|Drapion}}, and one of Bertha's Pokémon, {{p|Gliscor}}, match [[Kincaid]]'s first and second Pokémon, respectively.
* {{4v|Black|White}} are the only games where Elite Four members used fewer than five Pokémon in their initial parties.
** It is also the only Elite Four thus far that does not force the player to battle its members in a specific order.
* The Sinnoh Elite Four and Generation I and III Kanto Elite Four are the only Elite Fours in which all members have made appearances in the anime.
* In [[Generation V]], all Elite Four members' type specialties have been used exactly twice in Elite Four of other regions. The Indigo Elite Four used all of them, spread in its two variations (with a {{type|Fighting}} specialist in both), the Hoenn Elite Four has {{t|Dark}}- and {{type|Ghost}} specialists, and the Sinnoh Elite Four has a {{type|Psychic}} specialist.
* [[Pokémon Puzzle League]] features its own Elite Four: [[Ritchie]], [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], and {{Gary}}. Gary serves as the leader of the Elite Four and the Puzzle League Champion.

Rainbow Shifter: From Fire column downwards those Pokemon are only there as placeholders- finish it later

Hello,

My name is Rainbow Shifter (but you can call me Jade). I am an admin over at Pokemon Wiki but please don't spam my talk page with hate messages. I am not here to vandalise or to steal information, but to help just like I do over at Wikia.

Sorry if my user page looks kinda ugly at first, I'm not very good with templates. If you have any questions then please ask, also I can answer in advanced English, French and some Japanese.

Talk:Nurse Joy

2013-02-09T08:48:41Z

Rainbow Shifter: /* Scizor */

==Japanese ==

Are you sure that Joi and Junsaa are "plays" on Japanese words? I thought they WERE just the Japanese words, and that each individual nurse and officer didn't actually have names. {{unsigned|Transfinite}}

Junsā is not the same as ''junsa'' -- length matters in Japanese. As for Joi - it sounds different from how I would pronounce ''joi'' - I would pronounce it with a clear syllable break. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 00:17, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I don't think that the way '''you''' would pronounce things is the be-all and end-all of Japanese pronunciation. Not to mention, I've heard characters saying "jo-i" AND "joi", both with and without the syllable break.

And also, why does everyone doing romanisation here insist on using bars over letters? Those won't display in the browser I'm using. Why can't we just use double vowels and call Jenny "Junsaa"? Besides the I with the bar over it is fugly and rarely used anywhere but here. --[[User:Ketsuban|Ketsuban]]

Because [[wp:Hepburn|Hepburn romanisation]] is what is commonly used and it suggests macrons, not circumflexes nor doubling. As for '''ī''', I quote "In words of ''Japanese or Chinese origin'', the long vowel '''i''' is written '''ii'''." (emphasis added).

:That still doesn't change the fact that the I with the macron is fugly. Just because it's widely accepted doesn't mean it's the best possible way. --[[User:Ketsuban|Ketsuban]]

Also, I don't think you'd address a female doctor as ''joi'' any more than you would address a male doctor ''isha'', a teacher ''kyōshi'', your own mother ''haha'' or father ''chichi'' - instead, you'd use the titles ''sensei'' for the former two and ''(o)kā(san)'' and ''(o)tō(san)'' for the latter two. This strongly suggests that ''Joi'' is her name.

As for your browser problem, it may be linked to not having the fonts installed or using Windows 9x. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 01:54, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Actually, I just checked the credits and ''Joi'' is actually ''Jōi'', so that makes all this talk rather irrelevant. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 02:06, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

== Source? ==

''"It would seem that the Nurse Joy family is related to the Officer Jenny family."'' What's the source on this? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 23:22, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
:It's probably just through the fact that there are lots of clones in each family. But the [[DP028]] explanation pretty much kills that theory since they would have to be seperate. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] 15:47, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Weren't the Viridian City Joy and Jenny related? --[[User:Zeta|Zeta]] 17:49, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
:I don't think so. I just saw the episode a couple of days ago, and to my knowledge, there was no mention of them being related. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] 18:08, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
:I don't think so either. In fact, I think they're an often cited example for LilacShipping because of the way they act around each other; wouldn't that be thrown out the window if they were cousins or something? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 18:57, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

== Nurse Joy's voice ==

[[Kayzie Rogers]] only voiced [[Officer Jenny]] in [[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]] {{unsigned|Livinlarge18}}

== Casey - The Game Nurse? ==

I have just noticed something while participating in a Super Contest in my diamond. The Nurse participated in Contest! Her name is Casey and she uses a Chansey named Pinky. Interesting, isn't it? --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 17:48, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

It is! <big>[[User:Tesh|'''TESH''']][[User Talk:Tesh|'''TALK''']] [[User:Tesh/Other|'''FUN''']]</big> 18:39, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

== Relation of them all? ==

There's gotta be a way we could show that... '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]][[User:TTEchidna/GSDS|GSDS!]]''' 02:42, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

What do you mean????? Like a family tree???? That'll be pretty sweet! We could do it for Officer Jenny, too! --'''[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy]][[User:Theryguy512/Contribution Page|5]][[User:Theryguy512/Mission Page|1]][[User:Theryguy512/Sandbox|2]]''' 11:49, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Or have a list of locations and Nurse Joys that work there or something like that... <big>[[User:Tesh|'''TESH''']][[User Talk:Tesh|'''TALK''']][[User:Tesh/Other|'''FUN''']]</big> 20:52, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Do the family tree?? But, how many Joys do you think that appeared in the Anime?? They're too many!! -'''[[User:Haruka uzumaki|うずまき]] [[User talk:Haruka uzumaki|ハルカ]]''' 20:56, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

== Party Table addition ==

A Nurse Joy participated in the PLEE w/ the exam's Squirtle in [[EP056]]. Can someone add it to the party table please??????--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 19:40, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
:Got it. The tables got me confused for a moment, but I managed to get it right. - [[User talk:SpontaneousCombusken|s.]][[User:SpontaneousCombusken|'''Combusken''']] 19:56, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Thank you [[AG162]]--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 20:01, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

== Magikarp/Gyarados ==

In EP092, there really was a giant Magikarp (which evolved into Gyarados). However, it wasn't owned by Nurse Joy IMHO, it just was her friend. Right? UltimateSephiroth ([[User:UltimateSephiroth|user]] · [[User talk:UltimateSephiroth|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/UltimateSephiroth|contrib]]) 00:03, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Then we'll put it in a befriended section. That's all, it's simple--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 00:06, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

== New article?? ==

It has recently been revealed that a different looking Nurse Joy, will be in Isshu. Should she just be added to this article, or a new article "Nurse Joy (Isshu)"? Seeming she will probably be pretty much the same as the others, but has a new look. Just wanted to clear it up. --[[User:S2daam|S2daam]] 15:00, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
:Okay, do we have anything besides the fact that she's a new nurse? We don't even know if that's her name, and you want an article already? They look similar but it doesn't mean they're the same. Let's wait until we get more information before we start jumping to conclusions. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jello]][[User Talk:Jello|talk]] 16:51, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

== New look? ==

I think it's a just a new design for Joy. So, when the time comes we need to say SOMETHING about her design being remade. NOT YET. But when the anime comes out. :D Also should we protect Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny, so we don't get vandalism? --[[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']]''' 23:08, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

== Trivia ==

"In Mewtwo Strikes Back, while Brock is looking at Nurse Joy's missing poster, in the section that says "name:," it says Joy, followed by an illegible last name. This implies that all of the Nurse Joys have last names (and are possibly all different)."
::Isn't it a well-known fact that in Japanese naming order, the family name comes before the given name, so it really would be an illegible given name? That being said, the second sentence of the article reads "As revealed in Drifloon in the Wind!, Joy is not the first name of these women, but actually the family name.", along with this being supported in every way in the article until this quite-innacurate Trivia paragraph. -[[User:Thunderboom|Thunderboom]] 20:27, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
:::Given that Brock has confirmed they're all different anyway, I think we can scratch this trivia item. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:13, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

== Extended family ==

The defanition of extended family is your family, including uncles, aunts, grandparents, etc and to be part of an extended family would imply you live with them or very close to them. So this trivia on Joy, Jenny and Don georges page is a little bit wrong, that said, I can't think of the word we need, inbred? no, but these are not extended families so to speak [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 15:45, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

== Diane Stillwell ==

Yes the resume says Michele Knotz voiced Joy in MMoP. But keep in mind that it was dubbed '''twice'''. And I believe someone said Stillwell voiced Joy in the first dub while Knotz voiced her in the second. I can't confirm if it's true or not but I think it's worth looking into. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 20:33, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

== Names ==

So, apparently Joys can have different names, as in [[DP028|this episode]], though I remember that in [[EP206|this episode]] that Joy's mother calls here Joy '''specifically''', and not some other name, implying that her first name was Joy. Which is it? --[[User:Pringles|'''P'''r]][[User talk:Pringles|'''i'''ngles]] 03:16, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

== Scizor ==

In [[AG143]], Nurse Joy's Scizor has appearance, whether it should be added?[[User:Pawel10s|Pawel10s]] ([[User talk:Pawel10s|talk]]) 07:50, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
:If that's all the information you have on it then I think it should be put in trivia, not be put in at all, or put below all of her other Pokemon (but not given its own box). [[User:Rainbow Shifter|Rainbow Shifter]] ([[User talk:Rainbow Shifter|talk]]) 08:48, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

This Frontier is found in two regions, [[Sinnoh]] and [[Johto]]; each region's Frontier is identical in facilities and appearance. The Sinnoh Frontier is located north of the [[Fight Area]] in the place of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}'s {{si|Battle Park}}. The Johto Frontier is located west of [[Olivine City]], where the {{jo|Battle Tower}} was located in {{game|Crystal}}. Access to Johto's frontier is through the [[Frontier Access]]. Each of the facilities in the Battle Frontier has a leader, the [[Frontier Brain]], who may be challenged after certain {{wp|winning streak (sports)|winning streaks}} have been made through their respective facilities. Defeating the Frontier Brains will earn the player [[commemorative print]]s.

Only two of the facilities had been featured in Pokémon games prior to the Battle Frontier's debut in Platinum. The Battle Tower and Battle Factory were both present in Emerald; the Battle Tower has been in every game since its debut in Crystal, excluding FireRed and LeafGreen, which featured a similar facility called [[Trainer Tower]].

==Overview==
[[File:Battle Frontier Pt.png|thumb|300px|right|Overview of the Battle Frontier]]
Upon the player's first entry into the Battle Frontier, their [[Vs. Recorder]] will be upgraded with a {{DL|Vs. Recorder|Frontier Record}} by a woman at the entrance. The Vs. Recorder keeps the amount of [[Battle Point]]s the players has. It also contains the commemorative prints obtained from the Battle Frontier. One {{pkmn|battle}} from within one of the facilities may be recorded and stored on the Frontier Record, which may be watched or overwritten with another at any time.

On winning through a set amount of battles in any given facility, [[Battle Points]], or BP, will be awarded, usually in small amounts, but gradually growing through each consecutive streak. Defeating the Frontier Brain of a given facility for the first time awards the silver commemorative print of that facility, while the second defeat of the same Brain gives the commemorative print a golden color. They are the equivalent of a [[Badge]], and equivalent to the [[Symbol]]s from [[Hoenn]]'s {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}. The Frontier Brain will only appear in single battle mode. Also, defeating a Brain will always yield a 20BP reward. Battles conducted here do not award [[experience]] or [[Pokémon Dollar|money]]. Also, Pokémon seen in the battles will not be added to the [[Pokédex]].

[[File:Battle Frontier center.png|thumb|right|200px|The center of the Battle Frontier, with a map showing the five battle facilities.]]
There are usually three forms of challenges. The first of these challenges is the standard single battle in which the challenger must engage in seven three on three battles in a row. Winning a set of seven battles earns the player [[Battle Point]]s. The second of these challenges follows the same layout as the standard single battle but are rather conducted as [[Double Battle]]s. Each facility also offers Multi Battles that two players can participate in, using the Nintendo DS's Wireless Connection, to increase their record. The Battle Frontier also allows players from around the world connect together using {{wp|Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection}} to take part in multi Battles in any of the Battle Frontier facilities. This can be done by going to the Wi-Fi Club on the basement floor of any [[Pokémon Center]], and selecting the Battle Frontier function. However, both players must have entered the [[Hall of Fame]] and visited the Battle Frontier at least once.

Regardless of what challenge is taken, the following Pokémon are not allowed:

==Facilities==
===Battle Tower===
{{Facility infobox

|image=Battle Tower IV.jpg
|color=tower
|slogon=Never Lose! Keep Winning!
|bpr=7

|brain=Tower Tycoon Palmer
|brainvs=VSPalmer
|silver=21
|gold=49
}}
The '''Battle Tower''' (Japanese: '''バトルタワー''' ''Battle Tower'') is identical to the {{si|Battle Tower}} in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. It is the northernmost facility in the Battle Frontier, and has a direct path to it from the entrance. It is on a large, glass platform that elevates above all the other facilities, making it the head of the Battle Frontier. The same small boy who stands in front of the Battle Tower in {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation III|Hoenn's Battle Frontier}}, is also standing outside this one.

The player battles seven Trainers consecutively in a simple knock-out, progressively becoming more difficult. Before entering, Trainers will choose three Pokémon to battle, their [[level]] reduced to 50. Players are not allowed to bring Pokémon with the same items here. Consumed items, such as [[Berry|Berries]], will be replaced after each battle. The player's Pokémon will also be healed completely after each battle. Players will then have the option to continue, rest, retire, or get their most recent battle recorded on their [[Vs. Recorder]]. The difficulty of battles here is based on how many rounds the player endures; the first round features fast opponents, the second round has opponent's Pokémon holding items, and starting in the third round, opponents begin to use strategic battle combinations.

There are also a number of other challenges in the Battle Tower that other facilities don't have. Multi battles can be conducted, following the format found in the other two challenges. Before the challenge begins, players can choose one among [[Riley]], [[Cheryl]], [[Buck]], [[Mira]], and [[Marley]] as their partner, though in Platinum, they must be met in certain areas before they will appear in the Tower. Each partner specializes in a different Pokémon [[Stats|stat]], and different Pokémon. There is also another feature that allows the player to randomly download a team using the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]], which will then begin to appear in the player's Battle Tower challenges. One can also upload their team to the database to be downloaded by another player.

{{FB|Tower Tycoon|Palmer}} is the [[Frontier Brain]] for the Battle Tower. He can be challenged after 21 consecutive battles. His first lineup is filled with fully evolved Pokémon, with high stats to match. Once defeated, he will give away the silver commemorative print. Palmer can be challenged again after 49 consecutive battles, and will give away the gold commemorative print when defeated. He uses different Pokémon during the second match, battling with three [[legendary Pokémon]].

====Awards====
Unlike the other facilities at the Battle Frontier, the Battle Tower awards the player [[Goods]] and [[Ribbon]]s for meeting certain conditions. Not only are there prizes for single battle, but also for winning consecutive [[Double Battle]]s or multi battle in the Wi-Fi battle room.

}}
The '''Battle Factory''' (Japanese: '''バトルファクトリー''' ''Battle Factory'') is another battle venue in the Generation IV Battle Frontier, having basically the same rules as [[Hoenn]]'s {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation III}}'s Battle Factory. It is located on the northeast corner of the Battle Frontier. The blue building itself is much like a factory, with exhaust fans, and pipes. There is a long, glass panel on the floor of the building that transfers information around. There are [[Poké Ball]]s containing [[rental Pokémon]] in glass storage panels inside, and there is an electronic battle ground that lights up before a battle begins. Like Hoenn's Battle Factory, it is more dedicated to research than the other facilities, and the subject of the scientists' research is the abilities of Trainers when using random Pokémon in battle.

Before entering the Battle Factory, the player will be asked to hand over their current party in exchange for rental Pokémon. The player will then be able to choose three out of six random Pokémon to rent and battle other Trainers; these Pokémon will be either level 50 or 100, depending on whether competing in the level 50 or level 100 competition. After winning a battle, the player's Pokémon will be healed completely, and the player will have the option to continue, rest, retire, or get their most recent battle recorded on their [[Vs. Recorder]]. If the player continues, they will get the offer to trade one of the rental Pokémon for their opponent's rental Pokémon, but they may not see the Pokémon's status before trading. A scientist will tell the player what Pokémon their opponent will be using before every battle, but after the player progresses through consecutive battles, the scientist will tell less and less.

{{FB|Factory Head|Thorton}} is the [[Frontier Brain]] for the Battle Factory. He can be challenged after 21 consecutive battles. Thorton is subject to the same rules in the Battle Factory; he must use rental Pokémon as well, so his team will not be known until he is encountered. He could have anything except for the Pokémon that are not admissible in the Battle Frontier. Once defeated, he will give away the silver commemorative print. Thorton can be challenged again after 49 consecutive battles, and will give away the gold commemorative print when defeated.

====Staff information====
The Battle Factory scientist staff member will hint about the next Pokémon or move the player will face. But after the player progresses through rounds, the scientist will hint less information than last round. Use the data to decide which Pokémon the player rents, and form a strategy based around it.

}}
The '''Battle Arcade''' (Japanese: '''バトルルーレット''' ''Battle Roulette'') is a new facility located in the southeastern corner of the Battle Frontier. The building itself looks like a large tent, with articular domes, much like {{wp|Saint Basil's Cathedral}}. Inside the Arcade, it is dark with strange patterns on the walls and floors like a circus tent. In the stadium room, there is a large screen called the ''Game Board'' that most of the game is displayed on.

The player battles seven Trainers consecutively in a knock-out, much like all other facilities in the Battle Frontier. Before entering, Trainers will choose three Pokémon to battle, having their [[level]] reduced to 50. Prior to battles, all items equipped on the Pokémon used are removed. Battles in the Battle Arcade are 3 vs 3. Upon entering, the player's Pokémon will be seen on the Game Board. The foe's Pokémon will also be seen when they enter the field.

Before a battle begins, the player must play the game board to determine the condition of the battle. The game board is a massive roulette machine that will scroll quickly through a grid of small boxes, known as ''Events''. Landing on a dark purple box affects the player while landing on a red box affects the foe. Gray boxes, on the other hand, affect both foes. Each event will have a different effect; some may lower the opponent's HP, poison the opponent's Pokémon, or speed up the game board. The choice may affect the player's Pokémon, the opponent's, or even the field. The board may land on status ailments, weather changes, level changes, Berries and more. It may even land on nothing. The status ailments appear to be based on moves with certain types. This means that {{type|Steel}} Pokémon are immune to poisoning. Every battle is called a ''game''; for example, the first battle is known as ''Game No. 1''. After winning a battle, the player's Pokémon will be healed completely, and the player will have the option to continue, rest, retire, or get their most recent battle recorded on their [[Vs. Recorder]].

{{FB|Arcade Star|Dahlia}} is the [[Frontier Brain]] for the Battle Arcade. She can be challenged after 21 consecutive battles. The Pokémon that Dahlia uses in her first match share common type weaknesses—{{t|Poison}}, {{t|Flying}}, and {{t|Ghost}}. Once defeated, she will give away the silver commemorative print. Dahlia can be challenged again after 49 consecutive battles, and will give away the gold commemorative print when defeated.

====Nullify events====
Some events that include poisoning, paralyzing, freezing, and burning Pokémon can be negated by certain Abilities and types. The status ailments appear to be based on moves with certain types; {{type|Steel}} Pokémon are immune to poisoning and {{type|Ground}} Pokémon are immune to paralysis.

}}
The '''Battle Castle''' (Japanese: '''バトルキャッスル''' ''Battle Castle'') is another new facility located in the southwestern corner of the Battle Frontier. The Battle Castle, as its name suggests, is a huge castle, with elegant furniture on the floor and sparkling jewels on the wall. There is a golden carpet from the entrance to the battle ground. In the stadium itself, [[Caitlin|Lady Caitlin]], the princess of the castle, sits on her throne atop a platform, watching down on battles. Her butler, Darach, directs people to their battle, handing out prizes to people after victory.

In the Battle Castle, players must fight seven opponents in a row. Like in the Battle Arcade, all held items are removed prior to battling. Before entering, Trainers will choose three Pokémon to battle, having their [[level]] reduced to 50. After entering, the player will meet [[Castle Valet Darach]] in the hallway, and he will give 10 Castle Points, or CP, to the player, and will lead them to the battles.

[[File:HGSS Battle Hall.png|thumb|left|The Battle Castle in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}]]
Castle Points are the currency within the Battle Castle — special things must be done to gain them, but they can be exchanged for certain benefits. Winning allows players to receive Castle Points, which are used in multiple ways. The Castle Points can allow players to heal their Pokémon's HP, PP, both, or buy items for use inside the Battle Castle, such as Berries. It can also allow players to see their opponents' Pokémon and even increase or decrease their levels by five. Unlike other facilities in the Battle Frontier, in the Battle Castle, Pokémon will not be healed automatically after a battle.

At first, the player will be limited to what they can do with their CP, but if they save up enough, they can rank up and unlock more abilities, such as increasing the selection of items they can buy for their Pokémon, or increasing the amount of information the player can get on the opponent. After winning a battle, the player will have the option to continue, rest, retire, or get their most recent battle recorded on their [[Vs. Recorder]]. If the player chooses to continue, they will be able to get the chance to exchange CP for advantages. In Multi Battle mode, both players keep their own individual CP and ranks, but can also spend their CP for their teammate's Pokémon's benefit, such as buying an item that their teammate cannot currently afford.

Lady [[Caitlin]] and her [[Castle Valet Darach|valet, Darach]] are the [[Frontier Brain]]s for the Battle Castle. Darach is challenged after 21 consecutive battles. The Pokémon that he uses in his first match are unique. They use powerful attacks that burn and paralyze Pokémon. Once defeated, he will give away the silver commemorative print. He is battled again after 49 consecutive battles, and will give away the gold commemorative print when defeated.

====Receiving CP====
Castle Points or CP is used as currency in the Battle Castle. The player automatically receives 10CP on the first entry of a streak. Winning battles allows players to receive Castle Points, which are used in multiple ways. There are certain conditions the player can try to meet for more CP.

====Spending CP====
The Castle Points can allow players to heal their Pokémon's HP, PP, both, or buy items for use inside the Battle Castle, such as Berries. It can also allow players to see their opponents' Pokémon and even increase or decrease their levels by five. This can only be done by exchanging CP earned in battles, before every battle. CP can also be used to rank up certain actions, so instead of renting the normal eight Berries, the player can increase the rank to level 2 so it is possible to rent 8 kinds of Berries and 12 kinds of items. Some advantages can be ranked up twice to level 3 for more advantages. The player will keep all the CP and upgrades accumulated if all the Trainers are beaten successfully; however, if a match is lost or abandoned, the upgrades and CP will be lost as well, and the player must restart with the base 10 CP.

The '''Battle Hall''' (Japanese: '''バトルステージ''' ''Battle Stage'') is another facility located in the northwestern corner of the Battle Frontier. The stadium is a huge {{wp|catwalk}}, in where people walk down the catwalk to the battleground, while fans take a number of photos and the spotlights shine all over the place. There is also a red carpet on the floor, all the way from the entrance to the stadium.

The Battle Hall is unique from any other facility in the Battle Frontier, as there are 10 battles per round instead of the usual 7, and only one Pokémon can be used in a single battle, meaning the battles are one-on-one. Before entering the Battle Hall, the player will be asked to select one Pokémon level 30 or higher for entry. If it is a different Pokémon from last time, the attendant will warn the player that they are using a different Pokémon, as Pokémon are used in winning streaks, and if the player uses a different Pokémon, the streak will be lost.

Once the Pokémon is entered, the player will go down the runway and will have to choose from a list of types which [[type]] they want to battle. This lets players control their advantages, as they are about to choose their own type they want to battle. As the only thing known about an opponent is one of the types of their Pokémon, the game may occasionally throw a curveball, such as if a player chooses to use a {{type|Fighting}} against their {{type|Dark}} opponent, they may find out that the opponent is using the {{2t|Ghost|Dark}} {{p|Spiritomb}} who is immune to Fighting moves.

As the player wins against each type, that type raises in rank, causing the Pokémon of that type challenged to raise in level. The opponent's Pokémon can be chosen from any one of the 17 types. Each type begins at Rank 1, and advances to the next rank when the battle is won. The ranks will go up to 10, with Ranks 8-10 having Pokémon of different types.

After winning a battle, the player's Pokémon will be healed completely, and the player will have the option to continue, rest, retire, or get their most recent battle recorded on their [[Vs. Recorder]]. Players must also have ten battles in a row before they are allowed to exit. If doing a Double Battle challenge, the player must enter two of the same species of Pokémon.

{{FB|Hall Matron|Argenta}} is the [[Frontier Brain]] for the Battle Hall. She can be challenged after 50 consecutive battles, which is unique as all other Frontier Brains can be challenged after 21 consecutive battles. Like {{FB|Factory Head|Thorton}}, her Pokémon are completely random, and the player cannot choose the type she uses from the list. She could have anything except for the Pokémon that are not admissible in the Battle Frontier. Once defeated, she will give away the silver commemorative print. Argenta can be challenged again after 170 consecutive battles, and will give away the gold commemorative print when defeated. The player must defeat all types at least 10 times before challenging her again.

====Gaining fans====
In the Battle Hall, the player will gain fans as their total record or their winning streak increases. If the player is a female, their major fan is Winston, and if the player is a male, their major fan is Serena. They can be found in the Battle Hall lobby in various locations with varying dialogue. The player will also get visitors cheering them on in the lobby. If the player's total record is over 500 in {{game|Platinum}}, they will get the professor's assistant. If the record is over 1,000, the player will get [[Johanna]], and over 10,000 will get [[Professor Oak]] or [[Jasmine]]. In {{2v|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, if the record is over 1,000, the player will get the player's [[mother]], {{ga|Ethan}}, or {{ga|Lyra}}, and over 10,000 will get [[Professor Oak]] or [[Whitney]].

====Raising records====
At the Battle Hall, the staff member next to the monitor will keep track of the player's total record, which is how many successive wins the player has earned with all of their Pokémon. For example, if two different Pokémon have both won 10 times, then the total record is 20. The player earn BP based on the total record.

===Entrance hall===
[[File:Sinnoh Battle Frontier Brain artwork.png|thumb|left|220px|Artwork of the Battle Frontier, featuring the Frontier Brains]]
[[File:Fight Area Battle Frontier entrance.png|thumb|right|200px|The entrance]]
The entrance hall is the entrance to the Battle Frontier from the [[Fight Area]]. Because the Battle Frontier does not have a [[Pokémon Center]], unlike {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation III|Hoenn's}}, it cannot be accessed by {{m|Fly}}, making the entrance hall the only way to get into the Battle Frontier. Upon the first entry into the Battle Frontier, the [[Vs. Recorder]] will be upgraded with a {{DL|Vs. Recorder|Frontier Record}} by the women at the entrance. There are many women that will guide and explain venues of the Battle Frontier.

* The top left woman will explain the Battle Castle
* The top right woman will explain the Battle Arcade
* The middle left woman will explain the Battle Factory
* The middle right woman will explain the Battle Hall

===Stats judge===
{{main|Stats judge#In Generation IV|Stats judge}}
In the Battle Tower's lobby next to the PC is a man who considers himself a judge of Trainer's Pokémon. He can appraise one of the player's Pokémon by looking at its stats, specifically by checking how high the {{IV}}s are. First he describes the Pokémon's "potential", which is based on the sum of all six IVs. Then he indicates which stat has the highest IV and what range it falls in. If two or more IVs are tied for the highest then he will choose only one of them to comment on. In Sinnoh, he selects which highest stat he'll report randomly. In Johto, he cycles through the stats in the following order: {{stat|HP}}, {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Defense}}, {{stat|Speed}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, {{stat|Special Defense}}. If a different Pokémon is shown, then the cycle will not reset.

===Exchange Service Corner===
The Exchange Service Corner is located within the center of the Battle Frontier. The player can buy various goods with [[Battle Point]]s won from the facilities. The Battle Frontier's prizes are the same as {{v2|Diamond and Pearl|s}}'s {{si|Battle Tower}}'s prizes. They also use [[Battle Point]]s which are won in the Frontier's various facilities. They can be bought at the stalls at the center of the Frontier. The following items are offered as prizes:

===Pokémon Scratch-Off Corner===
[[File:Scratchoff.png|thumb|right|Scratching a Pokémon Scratch-Off Card]]
The Pokémon Scratch-Off Corner is located just north of the Exchange Service Corner. Pokémon Scratch-Off is a game that can be played for 1BP. This 1BP purchases three different Scratch-Off Cards, which permits winning up to 3 items. Upon purchase, a selection of 3 cards from four cards: red, blue, green, and yellow. Once done, scratching mode will begin. Using the stylus to scratch off the upper layer, scratching off three Pokémon gets the particular item that matches the Pokémon revealed. As soon as any part of any of the 9 blocks is touched, that block must be selected as one of the three choices. The whole card cannot be scratched off—only three blocks may be selected.

==In the manga==
[[File:PS417.png|thumb|right|200px|The Battle Frontier, its Brains and the main characters of the {{chap|Platinum}}]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
In the {{adv|Platinum chapter|eighth chapter}} of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, {{adv|Platinum}} is joined by [[Looker]], to help find her former bodyguards [[Paka and Uji]], and rescue them from the [[Distortion World]]. In the meantime, Platinum is challenging the Battle Frontier for information about the Distortion World from the [[Frontier Brain]]s.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
[[File:JohtoSinnoh BF.png|right|200px|thumb|The Battle Frontier logo]]
* The Battle Frontier logo is the color code of the venues corresponding to the five battle venues and their position in the Battle Frontier.
** The color code of each of the venues corresponds approximately to the color codes of each of the five [[flavor]]s of [[Berry]] and to the types of [[Pokémon Contest]]s and {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s.
** If the Poké Ball design in the middle is counted, as well, the logo contains the seven colors of [[Apricorn]].
* Due to the pairing of {{FB|Castle Valet|Darach}} and [[Caitlin]], there is an equal number of male and female Frontier Brains. This is the case with Sinnoh's [[Gym Leader]]s as well.
* Several of the Frontier Brains have Pokémon with moves they normally learn at a higher level. This may mean that their Pokémon also decrease in level when they are above level 50.
* All Frontier Brains with a fixed team have at least one legendary Pokémon in their party when they are battled for the gold commemorative print.
* Although Pokémon under level 30 are banned from use by the player at the Battle Hall, opponent Trainers can use Pokémon under this level.
* This Battle Frontier is the first one of its kind to appear in two separate locations in one generation.
** Also, it is the first one to appear in the mainland of one region, in this case, the Johto region.
* {{p|Rotom}}'s forms, {{p|Phione}}{{tt|*|which is debatably a legendary Pokémon}}, and the [[Spiky-eared Pichu]] are the only non-[[legendary Pokémon]] that aren't allowed in the Frontier.
* The Battle Factory is the only facility to not have a [[PC]], due to the fact that players rent Pokémon instead of using their own.
* The Battle Arcade is the only location in a Generation IV game to have moving animation while the player is saving: the screens that show the player's and their opponent's Pokémon flash, despite everything else pausing during the save.
* In the Battle Castle, there are crosses above the foe's entrance which change depending on the round the player is on. For example, if the player is on round 1, then there is 1 cross.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the player cannot [[walking Pokémon|keep his or her Pokémon outside of its Poké Ball]] in the Battle Frontier, despite being an open place. This is likely due to the fact that once the player steps into the opening of a facility, they are automatically drawn deeper inside, and would cause problems with the walking Pokémon.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the [[Pokégear]] will not play any radio channels whatsoever when the player is in any facilities. It is unknown why this happens.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the [[stat Trainers]] all appear in the Battle Tower without any reason; the player character has never met them before. This is possibly to ensure full compatibility with {{game|Platinum}}.
* Trainers that received different overworld sprites in HeartGold and SoulSilver still use their Platinum sprites here.
** Additionally, {{tc|Scientist}}s use their Platinum battle sprite and a {{tc|School Kid}} overworld sprite.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, a boy in the Battle Tower mentions that there are "...similar facilities are available outside of Johto", probably referring to Sinnoh's Battle Frontier.
* Aside from the stat-enhancing vitamins, which each have a price of only 1 BP, all prizes buyable with Battle Points have a price that is divisible by 8.

'''Lake Psyduck''' is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive location in [[Sinnoh]] featured in ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]''.

The lake appears to have the shape of a Psyduck's flipper. It is also surrounded by many kinds of [[Berry|Berries]].

Several {{p|Psyduck}} retreated from the lake after three {{p|Muk}} took over, forcing them to have to block a road so that three {{pkmn|Egg}}s could hatch.

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} helped in driving the Muk away so that the Psyduck and their new ''Psyducklings'' could go back to the lake and stop blocking the road.

Near Lake Psyduck is another lake to which the Muk go and it is very polluted.

'''Round''' (Japanese: '''りんしょう''' ''Round'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation V]]. It is [[TM48]] as of Generation V.

==Effect==
===In battle===
Round inflicts damage, which will double in power to 120 if used consecutively by an ally and definitely will be used by the ally directly after the first user, regardless of speed.

===Outside of battle===
Round has no other effect outside of battle.

==Description==
{{movedesc|normal}}

== I really don't think he's going to evolve ==

I really don't believe Chimmy is going to evolve in this next episode. I saw the preview on youtube, and it just looks like Paul drives him completely berserk. I could see the poor thing break down. Plus with the Aipom --> Ambipom thing, he glowed white and stuff showing that it the evolving was probably going to happen. This is probably just more character development for Chimmy.

::::Given that the Gliscor is on the far right end of what we see in the group shot, and given the Gliscor's distance from Ash, it's not a foregone conclusion that it's {{OP|Ash|Gligar}}. For all we know, [[Paul]] could be in the movie and that's his {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}}. Or given how {{p|Shaymin}} has a role in the movie, that the movie might be [[Marley]]'s anime appearance and that's her Gliscor. Or it could belong to a character of the day not covered in the group shot.

::::Additionally, that group shot could be from an early version of the movie and that there is no Gliscor and Swinub, and that {{TP|Ash|Chimchar}} and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} will be evolved by the time the movie rolls around.

:::::I am 99% sure that that is the "World of Pokémon" group shot, which isn't your standard disposable shot. There is not much reason to give it to us to begin with and they would definately make sure the team lineup would be finalised before doing so, especially given what we do get.
:::::And there still isn't any evidence that Chimchar will evolve here anyway. From the preview, we can all see that it is character development concerning Paul. This certainly isn't an Aipom scenario. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] |[[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|Talk Page]]| 20:52, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Chimchar is by far one of the most and hardest trained Pokemon Ash has in Sinnoh (besides from Pikachu), it may also want to show its ex-trainer, Paul, that it isn't a weakling because it has a kind a enjoyable nature.[[User:Kikibabygirl28|Kikibabygirl28]] 19:25, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

== Trivia ==

Those last two pieces of trivia are definatly not needed. Chimchar didn't debut in Rise of Darkrai, it debued in the first episode of Diamond and Pearl. The 'if chimchar evolves it will be Ash's third fighting type' is the worst piece of trivia ever. Its speculation and its not even important. It's not mentioned that chimchar is his fourth fire type, or that corphish was his fith etc. If we have this then we'd also need 'if turtwig evolved it would be Ashs third ground type'. We don't have that, so this is uneeded. Could an admin please delete these pieces of trivia? [[User:TheAlmightyChris|TheAlmightyChris]] 16:12, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

As awesome and funny that sentence is and I wish we'd do that more, I'm having a hard time swallowing that particular phrasing as grammatically correct. Wouldn't it just be easier to set the protection level to expire on July 18, when that's the day the movie will come out?

Based on 120, it seems like Chimchar isn't going to evolve until at least Ash's battle with Candice, and people are already arguing about the Notch Eared Pichu clip (that aired with the episode) that shows a Chimchar.

:DP126's title is most likely an April Fools joke, because DP120 clearly states that Chimchar is still a Chimchar when Ash fights Candice.

They are continuously changing the Monferno's main picture.That picture was looking awesome in which Ash was standing behind Monferno. Everyday i see a new picture, what's going on here. Just ask from the administrator (I will prefer KENJI Girl or any other) and then decide it.

== Fury Swipes???? ==

Recently, i watched pokemon season 10 (Complete).
I have a question in my mind that when chimchar / monferno used fury swipes.
I watched each and every single episode of pokemon dp season 10 and chimchar never used it in any episode. Along with that i didn't noticed chimchar ever using fury swipes in any episode either.
I know chimchar used Scratch a lot of times and it looks quite similar to Fury Swipes but i don't think that chimchar knows Fury Swipes at least chimchar never used it in season 10.
I will watch season 11 again and confirm this thing.
What do you say about it?

== Minor trivia ==

should it be put that the only pokemon on ash's current team that was obtained in sinnoh that do not have their gender confirmed are also the only ones who have no gender differences? (torterra and infernape)

Staraptor has the large circle (although you guys were unsure till later)
Buizel has the two spots on his back
and Gible has the notch in his fin
and pikachu has the tail but he doesnt count
Aipom also had gender differnces too along with gliscor (well when it was a gligar that is)

([[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 09:14, 16 May 2010 (UTC))

==Trivia mistakes==

"Infernape is the only fire-type starter Pokémon Ash owns that used it's Blaze ability and it is the only starter Pokémon overall to use this ability more than once. "
This is wrong, grovyle/sceptile used overgrow in the battle against Norman and again in that last contest against Blaziken

"Infernape also used it's ability more than any other Pokémon Ash owned, using it three times; in Chim-Charred!, DP163 and DP179. Buizel is the only other Pokémon to use it's ability more than once; in A Triple Fighting Chance! and in Short and To the Punch!. "

This is totally wrong. It's ignoring Grovyle/Sceptile again. And, of course, pikachu, who has used static at least 3 times, that I remember. Against Norman, in the 6v6 against Paul and again against Volkner (if I'm not wrong, what happened to electivire was indeed static). [[User:Luord|Luord]] 01:37, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

==Another mistake==

Don't know why nobody has realized this, cuz it has been there for a long while. Unless I am really mistaken, chimchar wasn't the fourth pokemon Ash got in Sinnoh, it was the third. Starly->Turtwig->Chimchar. Aipom was captured in Kanto, so the very first trivia instance (comparing it with torkoal and charizard) is wrong [[User:Luord|Luord]] 02:22, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

==Don't know==
"It is Ash's second starter Pokémon to use its ability in a gym battle, the first being Ash's Sceptile. "
This is not really true, as Pikachu was Ash's true starter and was a starter in an actual {{game3|Yellow|main game}}. So Pikachu could count in this too[[User:Luord|Luord]] 03:54, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

== Important . . . . ? ==

I was just wondering, is it worth noting Infernape's repeated usage throughout Sinnoh in its personality or trivia sections? I noticed that, in four out of the five Gym battles it was in ([[Fantina]], [[Byron]], [[Candice]], and [[Volkner]]), it defeated two Pokemon out of three/four. Also, it defeated half of [[Paul]]'s team during the full battle between Ash and Paul in the Sinnoh League. To me, this is a strong list of accomplishments, and it may even rival that of [[Ash's Charizard]] (I know, opinions are iffy in discussion pages). If for no other reason, it would expand Infernape's personality section a bit (which could also use some bolstering with the issues with Paul/fear of Zangoose/Blaze control details). If it's not important, I'll step off, but I just thought I'd ask first. [[User:RogueTrainer|RogueTrainer]] ([[User talk:RogueTrainer|talk]]) 21:47, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

{{spoilers}}

==Synopsis==

The episode starts with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} traveling through a valley on the way to {{an|Dawn}}'s next Contest in [[Celestic Town]]. They encounter three {{p|Psyduck}} in the middle of the road. After confirming with {{an|Brock}} that the Pokémon are Psyduck, Dawn scans them with her [[Pokédex]]. As they walk closer to them the Psyduck's eyes glow pink, surrounding the trio with pink as well and lifting them up with {{m|Psychic}}. Ash, Dawn and {{an|Brock}} sit down to come up with a plan to get around them. When it seems like there's no other choice but to use force, Ash sends out {{AP|Turtwig}} who attacks with {{m|Razor Leaf}} and {{m|Bite}}, but the three Psyduck are too powerful and Ash calls Turtwig back. Next up is {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} who uses {{m|Whirlpool}} but is defeated by the Psyduck, who use Psychic to reflect Whirlpool back to Piplup. Brock sends out {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} who uses {{m|Poison Sting}}, but he too is defeated. {{AP|Chimchar}} also comes out, uses {{m|Dig}} (as Ash thinks Psychic won't reach underground), gets lifted out of the hole by the Psyduck, smashed into the ground, and defeated.

{{TRT}} appears and do their {{motto}}. They haughtily state that they can do a better job of getting the Psyduck out of the way than the twerps can. {{MTR}} walks up to the Psyduck and attempts to bargain with them. It backfires; however, and Team Rocket is sent off by Psychic to the top of the valley. [[Brock's Happiny]] comes out and uses {{m|Pound}} while the Psyduck use Psychic on Happiny, crashing her to the ground. Happiny gets angry and starts lifting up a gigantic boulder to throw onto the Psyduck, but she loses her balance and swerves around while Ash, Dawn, and Brock try not to get hit. Eventually, Happiny crashes and breaks the boulder, fainting. [[Dawn's Swinub]] is sent out, but gets defeated as well. They then come up with a plan for {{AP|Staravia}} and {{AP|Gliscor}} to fly around with Ash while Dawn and Brock distract the Psyduck. Brock begins to perform Brock's Paradise while Ash and Gliscor take off. Gliscor flies into the wall a little farther down the valley. Ash sees a few mother Psyduck holding Eggs, and realizes that the Psyduck are protecting their babies.

Back with Brock, he is still performing the song but is getting tired. Ash reappears with Gliscor and lands. He explains to Brock and Dawn that the three Psyduck are just protecting their babies. Team Rocket reappears again in their Meowth Balloon and reperform their motto. Ash, Brock, and Dawn send out Staravia, Croagunk and Buneary respectively to battle Team Rocket. Chimchar also comes out to fight {{TP|James|Carnivine}} and {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}. Team Rocket blasts off.

They return to the lake in time to see the Eggs hatch. They wonder why they are not at their lake, when three {{p|Muk}} rise up from the water. Dawn scans the Muk with her Pokédex. They send the Muk out of this lake and back into their original lake where they meet three other Muk and fall in love. The Psyduck hop back to the lake as Ash, Dawn and Brock continue their journey to Celestic Town.

==Trivia==
* This episode is based on an event in the games. A group of Psyduck are initially blocking the route to [[Celestic Town]] but [[SecretPotion|a potion]] provided by [[Cynthia]] cures their headaches and makes them move away.
* Brock wears his outfit from [[Takeshi's Paradise]] in this episode, and music from that is used as well in the original Japanese version.
* This episode marks the first and only time that [[Brock's Happiny]] got knocked out.
* After it is knocked out, Dawn returns {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} to its Poké Ball for the first time since ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'', in which the episode number is a reversal of this episode. Once it was returned, it didn't reappear for the rest of the episode.
* {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} had not used {{m|Double Team}} since she was an {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}}, making this her first time since evolving. In addition, Ambipom hasn't used this move since ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', 31 episodes earlier.
* An [[EP161|earlier episode]] had a similar title to this episode. Both are references to the famous saying "{{wp|the buck stops here}}".

===Errors===
* When Dawn got her "Psyducklings" idea, Brock's hair is colored black instead of brown.

===Dub edits===
*As Brock performs [[Takeshi's Paradise]], the Takeshi's Paradise background music is removed.

Might I suggest the Golden Porygon Award for best new template?--[[User:MisterE13|MisterE13]] 00:39, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
:That might work sometimes, but I think it wouldn't be useful all the time since we don't really ''need'' new templates very often.

OK, so I ran this unofficial userspace award, the Golden Missingno. award, for best contributions to Glitch Pokémon articles, and it came to my attention that it is no longer allowed, as per the userspace policy.

One Island (town)

}}
'''One Island''' (Japanese: '''１のしま''' ''Island 1'') is a small town located on [[Knot Island]] in the [[Sevii Islands]]. The only major defining point of the town is the [[Pokémon Net Center]], run by [[Celio]], a friend of [[Bill]].

South of the town's [[Seagallop Ferry]] dock is a short watery path to [[Treasure Beach]], while east of it is the challenging [[Kindle Road]]. As it is such a small town, many more things can be done on these two routes than in the town itself, though players will find themselves brought back here repeatedly in their quest to complete the [[Network Machine]] with Ruby and Sapphire.

==Places of interest==
===Pokémon Net Center===
{{main|Pokémon Net Center}}
The Pokémon Net Center is a somewhat modified [[Pokémon Center]] present in the town. Run by [[Celio]], the Pokémon Net Center is integral to the final quest of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} to be able to link to the Hoenn-based games {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

Celio's first quest for the player is retrieval of a {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Meteorite}} from the owner of the [[Joyful Game Corner]] in {{OBP|Two Island|town}}. His next quest comes after the player has defeated the Champion at [[Indigo Plateau]] and received the [[National Pokédex]]. After getting the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Ruby}} in [[Mt. Ember]], Celio will exchange the player's {{DL|Sevii Island passes|Tri-Pass}} for a {{DL|Sevii Island passes|Rainbow Pass}}, and send him or her off to the southern four of the Sevii Islands to seek out the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Sapphire}}. After taking it back from [[Team Rocket]] {{tc|Scientist}} [[Gideon]] on [[Six Island]], players will be able to link with Hoenn-based games.

==Demographics==
One Island's total population is 9. This excludes [[Bill]] and the [[Pokémon Center Nurse]], but does include [[Celio]]. The population is very small, because many young people move away to big cities in [[Kanto]].

==Items==
{{itlisth}}

'''Amanita''' (Japanese: '''ショウロ''' ''Shōro'') is the storage system creator of the [[Unova]] region, who lives in [[Striaton City]]. She was introduced in [[Generation V]], an expert in computing, creating a [[Pokémon Storage System]], succeeding [[Bebe]]'s storage system.

==In the games==
Amanita was introduced in [[Generation V]] as the [[Pokémon Storage System]] creator living in [[Striaton City]] in the [[Unova]] region. It was she who developed Unova's storage system based on the previous designs of [[Bill]], [[Lanette]] and [[Bebe]].

In {{2v2|Black|White}}, the {{player}} first meets her in Striaton City where she gives the player a Box which can be accessed in the player's [[PC]]. She also tells the player about a new feature called the Battle Box which can be used to store the {{player}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} for battle.

She has the player start out with 8 Boxes capable of holding 240 Pokémon. When all 8 Boxes have at least one Pokémon in them, the storage capacity will be increased to 16 Boxes, holding 480 Pokémon. When all 16 of those Boxes have at least one Pokémon in them, the capacity will be increased again to a maximum of 24 Boxes, holding 720 Pokémon.

In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, Amanita is found in [[Castelia City]], along with [[Fennel]]. After the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], Amanita will give the player an {{p|Eevee}} she received from a friend in the [[Kanto]] region. This Eevee has its {{DL|Ability|Hidden Ability}} and is always male.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Amanita appears in ''[[ABW11|Battle in the Dreamyead]]'' as the assistant of Fennel. She shows {{adv|Black}} her research project, dreams, after waking up. Later, she accompanies him along with {{adv|White}} to the [[Dreamyard]] to find his {{p|Munna}}, [[Musha]].

Pewter Gym appears in all {{pkmn|games}} set in the [[Kanto]] [[region]], appearing much the same in each: a small building with a {{wp|Japanese rock garden}} inside, one or two Trainers, and the Gym Leader Brock waiting on a large stone pedestal. In the [[Generation I]] games and their [[Generation III]] remakes, whenever the {{player}} tries to leave Pewter City, a boy will lead him or her to the front of the Gym if the player has not earned their Boulder Badge yet.

A field based on the Gym also appears in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}'s [[Gym Leader Castle]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Pewter Gym original.png|thumb|Pewter Gym in its first appearance]]
[[File:Pewter Gym Battlefield original.png|thumb|The inside of the Gym in its first appearance]]
The Pewter Gym was first seen in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' in the {{pkmn|anime}}. It is a stone building apparently set apart from the rest of the city. {{an|Brock}} waits inside in the dark for challengers, sitting on a stone pedestal as he does in the games; however, unlike in the games, no other Trainers have been seen as part of the Gym aside from Brock's family. The battlefield is littered with jagged rocks and boulders, and a balcony along the edge above provides spectators a spot to watch Gym battles. Despite being a Rock-type Gym, the building has sprinklers for fire safety, which {{Ash}} uses to gain an advantage against {{TP|Brock|Onix|Steelix}}.

The Gym is an important part of Brock's family, and Brock, his [[Brock's siblings|brothers and sisters]], and his parents live in a large house behind the Gym. Brock's father, {{ka|Flint}}, was the Gym Leader before Brock, and Brock inherited the Gym as part of his family responsibilities when his parents left. While Brock was a strong, respected Gym Leader, he did not like being one, and only did it as an obligation to his family. When Flint came back, Brock returned the title of Gym Leader to him, and left to travel with Ash and pursue his own dream of becoming a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}.

When Brock's mother, [[Lola]], returned, the Gym was turned into a combination {{type|Water}} and Rock-type Gym, and the battlefield was redecorated, including the addition of a pool in the middle. However, Brock returned in ''[[SS001|A Family That Battles Together Stays Together!]]'' and was shocked to see how his mother has changed. Both he and his younger brother [[Forrest]] take pride in the Gym's strong reputation as a Rock-type Gym. He battled his mother to restore the Gym to being only Rock-type again.

It was subject to a second remodeling attempt in ''[[AG177|Grating Spaces]]''. At that time, a storage room was seen where the Gym keeps many [[Poké Ball]]s, presumably containing different Rock-type Pokémon. In its subsequent appearances, the Gym's name has been removed from the entrance.

While traveling with Ash, Brock kept Pokémon he owns but does not currently have on his [[party]] at the Gym. He has had his {{TP|Brock|Steelix}}, {{TP|Brock|Geodude}}, {{TP|Brock|Crobat}}, {{TP|Brock|Forretress}}, {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}} and {{TP|Brock|Marshtomp}} at the Gym. Flint's {{p|Golem}} is also kept at the Gym, and Lola keeps her many {{type|Water}} Pokémon there.

Pewter Gym was featured in ''[[SS025|Nibi Gym - The Greatest Crisis Ever!]]'', in which the Gym was going to be closed down after Forrest lost to [[Nurse Joy]]. After winning a battle against Brock and another battle with Forrest, Nurse Joy allowed the Gym to stay open, with Forrest as its official Gym Leader. The Gym is notably cleaner than in its previous appearance, with all paintings removed. In addition, the battlefield has more pointed rocks while the area around it is a blue shiny floor, possibly to reflect Lola's penchant for water.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Pewter Gym Adventures.png|thumb|250px|The main arena]]
Pewter Gym debuted in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'' of the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}. Here, {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} win the Boulder Badge after they defeat several rounds of Trainers and finally Brock. The outside of the Gym has the default design, but the inside consists of a boxing ring where the Trainers battle, a space for the crowd around it and a room with windows where Brock can see the battles.

====Pokémon====
These are the Pokémon shown in the Gym, from Brock and the other Gym Trainers.

==In the TCG==
The Pewter Gym was featured in the TCG as both a Japan exclusive {{TCG|Nivi City Gym|Theme Deck}} and as a card. The following is a list of cards named '''Pewter City Gym'''.

{{cardlist/footer|Trainer}}

==Trivia==
* In the anime, the Pewter Gym has tied for having been run by the most Gym Leaders, with a total of four different Leaders: [[Brock]], {{ka|Flint}}, [[Lola]], and [[Forrest]]. [[Viridian Gym]] has also had four Leaders in the anime: {{an|Giovanni}}, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and [[Agatha]], although Jessie and James were a [[Double Battle]]. If {{an|Misty}}'s [[The Sensational Sisters|sisters]] were counted as one Leader each, [[Cerulean Gym]] would also tie with them.
* For unexplained reasons, Pewter Gym seemed to have passed the [[Pokémon Inspection Agency|PIA]]'s inspection despite having a bad paint job and the Rock Pokémon nearly drowning in the pool, whereas in ''[[SS002|Cerulean Blues]]'', it is implied that any Gym that fails the cleanliness, safety, and coolness factors of the inspection is shut down.

The '''Fast Ship S.S. Aqua''' (Japanese: '''高速船アクア号''' ''Fast Ship S.S. Aqua'') is a ferry service that runs between [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]]. It is one of the methods of [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|transportation]] between Johto and Kanto in the Generation {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}} games, alongside the [[Magnet Train]], walking, and {{m|fly}}ing or {{m|teleport}}ing. It travels between [[Olivine City]] and [[Vermilion City]]. A player can only travel on this ship after defeating the [[Johto League]].

==Voyages==
[[File:SS Aqua.png|thumb|left|200px|The S.S. Aqua in Generation II]]
When the player first rides the ship to Vermilion City, a man will bump into them as they board and explain that he lost his granddaughter. When the player first enters the lower deck, a crewman will deny them access to the rest of the ship, asking them to locate a co-worker who is slacking off on the floor above. The crewman is a Sailor in a previously empty room (in Generation IV, the Sailor is found sleeping in a cabin before the player is asked to find him), and once he is defeated in a Pokémon battle, the crewman below will let the player pass. After traversing through the lower deck, the player will find the man's granddaughter trying to get the captain to play with her. The player takes her back to her grandfather, at which point the S.S. Aqua will arrive in Olivine City and the player can disembark.

After the initial trip to Kanto (which can happen on any day of the week), the S.S. Aqua can be sailed from Kanto to Johto every Sunday and Wednesday and from Johto to Kanto each Monday and Friday. Trips after the initial one will end when the player sleeps in the bed in their cabin, which heals their party.

Trainers can also be encountered and battled on the ship each voyage. In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, if the player defeats one or more Trainers on the ship and then boards it again for the same voyage (even on the same day), the Trainers can be battled and defeated again, and the player can keep re-boarding and re-battling the Trainers an unlimited number of times. However, in the Generation IV remakes, once an individual Trainer is defeated, that Trainer can never be battled again, regardless of when or how often the player re-boards the S.S. Aqua.

==Trivia==
* In both [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]], if the player goes to sleep, wakes up, and hears the announcement about docking, checking the Pokégear map will still show the player in the ocean between Kanto and Johto. This is because "S.S. Aqua" is actually a location on the map, and thus cannot move.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Hiker Noland has a {{p|Bronzor}} on his team, making it the first Sinnoh Pokémon owned by an NPC that the player may see.
** Sailor Jeff in the same games has a {{p|Makuhita}}, the first Hoenn Pokémon owned by an NPC the player may see.
* The S.S. Aqua along with the [[S.S. Anne]] and [[S.S. Tidal]] all have at least one NPC on board who will either mention that they are sea sick or will be facing a trash barrel, thereby implying that they are seasick.
* On the trip from Vermilion City to Olivine City in HeartGold and SoulSilver, {{tc|Pokéfan}} Georgia and Pokéfan Jeremy can be engaged in a [[Double Battle]], meaning that the opponents will have 8 Pokémon between them.
* In [[Generation IV]], there is a girl in the Olivine Port building that mentions the player having been in Kanto before even if they have not.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the captain of the ship implies that the S.S. Aqua travels to [[Sinnoh]], as he mentions finding [[Plate]]s there. However, the ship does not appear in any of the games that take place there.
