'''Shuppet''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カゲボウズ''' ''Kagebouzu'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Banette}} starting at [[level]] 37.

==Biology==
Shuppet is a spherical Pokémon that appears to be covered by a gray cloth. Black rings surround its multicolored eyes, which have light-blue sclerae, dark-blue irises, and yellow pupils. Occasionally, it will display a large, pink tongue. Extending from the top of its head is a long, pointed horn. The horn collects the negative emotions of people, on which this Pokémon feeds. The emotions it feeds on include anger, jealousy, and envy, so some people are grateful for its presence. A nocturnal Pokémon, it will appear in swarms beneath the eaves of houses with negative people. It is most commonly found {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|in cities and other urban settings.}}

In ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony]]'', a Shuppet was living at an abandoned mining colony with other Ghost-type Pokémon. They could not stand the partying {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon in the nearby town, so they created a {{p|Haunter}}-like illusion to scare them away.

* Shuppet can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Duskull}}. Both are [[Generation III]] {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon. Both evolve into their evolved forms starting at level 37. Both also have the same base stat total.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Shuppet and Banette}}
Shuppet appears to be a てるてる坊主 ''{{wp|teru teru bōzu}}'', a Japanese paper doll resembling a {{wp|ghost}}. It also resembles a {{wp|hand puppet}}. It also appears similar to common depictions of ghosts, specifically those that resemble floating cloths with faces.

====Name origin====
Shuppet may be a combination of ''shadow'' and ''{{wp|puppet}}'', or a contraction of ''{{wp|Shadow play|shadow puppet}}''.

Kagebouzu is a combination of 影 ''kage'' (shadow) and てるてる坊主 ''{{wp|Teru teru bozu|teru teru bōzu}}'' (paper dolls with a shape similar to Shuppet).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

=====Other=====
In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', a Bulbasaur was cloned from Ash's own Bulbasaur. It then participated in the battle between the original Pokémon and the cloned Pokémon. Bulbasaur reappeared in ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]''.

In ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]'', a Bulbasaur was abandoned by the [[Mayor of Trovitopolis]] during his childhood when it wouldn't evolve into Ivysaur. Since then, it grew to a very large size in the sewers. Aided by {{an|Misty}} and {{Tracey}}, Ash found the abandoned Bulbasaur while searching for his own, which had been taken by the giant Bulbasaur.

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

===Origin===
Bulbasaur is based on a {{wp|frog}}.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20101230153442/http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/interview/irbj/sp/index4.html Interview with Jun'ichi Masuda and Ken Sugimori about ''Pokémon Black and White Versions'' (archived - Japanese text)]</ref><ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/creator-profile-the-creators-of-pikachu/ Creator Profile: The Creators of Pikachu]</ref> According to [[Ken Sugimori]] and [[Atsuko Nishida]], the latter designed Bulbasaur working backward from Venusaur, meaning Bulbasaur was the last of its evolutionary family to have been designed and was also directly based on Venusaur.<ref>[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/corporate/en/pikachu/ The Origin Story of Pikachu]</ref> In particular, its build and ears resemble the ''{{wp|Beelzebufo}}'', a large prehistoric frog.

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

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

Fushigidane may be a combination of 不思議 ''fushigi'' (mysterious) and 種 ''tane'' (seed). It literally means "''isn't it strange?''" (''fushigi, da ne?'').

'''Red''' (Japanese: '''レッド''' ''Red'') is the [[canon]] name of the {{player|player character}} in the [[Generation I]] games [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue]], and {{v2|Yellow}} and the male choice in their [[Generation III]] remakes {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, where his female counterpart is {{ga|Leaf}}. Prior to [[Generation II]], he was officially referred to as '''Satoshi''' (Japanese: '''{{j|サトシ}}''').

Red is known throughout the [[Pokémon world]] as the {{pkmn|Champion}} from [[Pallet Town]], as well as a living legend for his defeat of [[Team Rocket]] in [[Kanto]] during his quest. He is the final opponent in the [[Generation II]] games {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, their [[Generation IV]] remakes {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, and {{g|Stadium 2}}. He is a participant in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]]'s [[Champions Tournament]] in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}} and works as a boss of the [[Battle Tree]] alongside {{ga|Blue}} in the [[Generation VII]] games {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}. In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], he appears as the highest-level Trainer in the game, capable of being challenged after defeating six [[Master Trainer]]s.

==In the games==
{{spoilers}}
Red is introduced as a curious 11-year-old (10 in the European releases) boy from [[Pallet Town]]. According to the instruction manuals of {{3v2|Red|Green|Blue}}, Red gained an interest in Pokémon after his best friend, {{ga|Blue}}, stopped playing with him and became a bully, although in the games [[Professor Oak]] says the two have been rivals since infancy. His adventure begins one day when Professor Oak calls the two to his lab for a [[starter Pokémon]]. Red has a choice of a {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}{{sup/1|G}}{{sup/1|RB}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}. Depending on the Pokémon that Red chooses, Blue will choose the Pokémon that has a type advantage over it{{sup/1|G}}{{sup/1|RB}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}. In {{game|Yellow}}, Red was originally intended to get an {{p|Eevee}}, which was swiped by Blue. As a result, Blue keeps the Eevee and Red receives a {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} that Professor Oak caught earlier{{sup/1|Y}}. Blue challenges Red to a battle immediately to test out his new Pokémon, thinking he will easily beat Red.

After Red has made his way to [[Viridian City]] to the north and taken [[Parcel|a package]] back to Oak in Pallet Town, Oak gives Red and Blue each a [[Pokédex]] with which to record data on all known Pokémon in the Kanto region to fulfill Oak's dream of creating a full guide on all Pokémon in Kanto. From here, Red and Blue journey across Kanto, collecting Pokémon to build up their teams, and defeating each of the [[Gym Leader]]s in turn, with Blue always one step ahead, showing up from time to time to impede Red's progress.

Red also comes across a gang of Pokémon thieves, [[Team Rocket]], several times through his journey. He first encounters them trying to steal fossils within Mt. Moon. Then he encounters a member who is running the [[Nugget Bridge]] challenge to recruit for the organization on {{rt|24|Kanto}}; and another lone member who has stolen a [[TM]] from a family in [[Cerulean City]]. Eventually, Red uncovers a plot by Team Rocket, infiltrating their [[Team Rocket Hideout|hideout]] beneath the [[Celadon Game Corner]] and encountering their boss, [[Giovanni]]. Defeating him and ousting Team Rocket from Celadon, Red uses the [[Silph Scope]] that Giovanni leaves behind to battle {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon and save [[Mr. Fuji]] in the [[Pokémon Tower]] in [[Lavender Town]], who is being held hostage by Team Rocket. Red soon journeys into Saffron City in the heart of Kanto to find it overrun by Team Rocket, who is attempting to take the recently invented [[Master Ball]] from the [[Silph Co.]] President, and defeats Giovanni again, ending the group's plots for the time being.

With seven Badges in hand, Red encounters Giovanni for the final time—this time as the [[Gym Leader|Leader]] of the [[Viridian Gym]], his final obstacle before the [[Elite Four]] of [[Indigo Plateau]]. Red defeats him in battle, earning his eighth and final Badge—the {{Badge|Earth}}. He disbands Team Rocket, promising to go into solo training to become a better Trainer.

Making it through {{ka|Victory Road}} and finally to Indigo Plateau, Red challenges the [[Indigo League]]. First, he defeats the Elite Four and discovers, to his surprise, that Blue has defeated them before him and is therefore the {{pkmn|Champion}} of Kanto. Red defeats Blue in the final battle, becoming the Champion himself, but then continues his training, rather than staying at Indigo Plateau. Encountering an offshoot of Team Rocket in the southern [[Sevii Islands]], lead by Executive [[Archer]], Red reveals with his Earth Badge that Giovanni has disbanded the organization, and, though defeated, the group there intends to revive Team Rocket and bring Giovanni back, having already made plans to force Pokémon to evolve with radio waves.

Red continues as a wandering Trainer, eventually making his way to the caves of [[Mt. Silver]], where he trains his Pokémon alone. In the process, he becomes so distant from the people close to him that he does not even talk to his mom via phone anymore.

Eventually, {{ga|Ethan}}, {{ga|Kris}}, or {{ga|Lyra}} arrives at Mt. Silver and challenges Red, identified only as a [[Pokémon Trainer]]. If defeated, Red vanishes from Mt. Silver, and returns every time the Elite Four is defeated again by the player of Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, or SoulSilver.

Some time later, Red has been shown to finally come back into public life, as he enters the [[Champions Tournament]] of the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] in the [[Unova]] region. In {{game4|Sun|Moon|Sun|Moon}}, a visibly older Red is invited to work as the boss of [[Alola]]'s [[Battle Tree]] along with Blue. When {{ga|Elio}} or {{ga|Selene}} first visits the Battle Tree, they will encounter Red and Blue and battle one of them. After Red{{sup/7|SMUSUM}} or Blue{{sup/7|USUM}} is defeated at the Battle Tree proper, Red will reward the player with a full set of Kanto starter [[Mega Stone]]s.

Red makes an appearance in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]. In this continuity, he and Blue completed their journeys and defeated the Elite Four years before the player character started their journey. If the player has defeated at least six [[Master Trainer]]s and has six Pokémon in their [[party]], Red can be found in front of the Pokémon League building at Indigo Plateau, where he may be challenged to a battle. Like during all Master Trainer battles, the player isn't allowed to use [[item]]s from their [[Bag]] during this battle. After being defeated, Red will grant the player the title of [[Pokémon Master|Battle Master]] before leaving, though he will reappear for a [[rematch]] each time the player defeats the Elite Four.

Red also appears in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]. He can be battled in the Kanto [[Gym Leader Castle]] after the player has defeated all eight Kanto Gym Leaders, being the final opponent the player must defeat in order to clear the Gym Leader Castle challenge.

===Pokémon===
As the player character, Red can have on his team any of the 151 Pokémon available during [[Generation I]]. In [[Generation III]], he can have any of the 386 Pokémon available at that time, though only after the player has obtained the [[National Pokédex]].

When he is encountered as an opponent in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]], Red has a set team, based on Generation I in-game event Pokémon, and has the highest leveled trained Pokémon yet encountered in the series, with his {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} at level 81 in Generation II and at level 88 in Generation IV. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, when he is defeated, all Pokémon in the player's party receive the {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Legend Ribbon}}.

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, he can be fought in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]]'s [[Champions Tournament]], using the same team he did in Generation IV, albeit with different movesets.

In {{game4|Sun|Moon|Sun|Moon}}, Red once again uses his team from Generation IV, just with altered movesets. When battled in the [[Battle Tree]] proper, Red will use a randomly selected team from a preset selection of Pokémon.

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], Red's team has notable differences to his previous [[core series]] teams, including Pokémon that he's never used in any of his previous NPC appearances.

In [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], Red uses vastly different sets of Pokémon than in any of his other appearances, only sharing a couple Pokémon with the teams he uses in the core series. Notably, this is the only game where he's not seen using his Pikachu.

==In side games==
===Pokémon Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness===
Red makes an appearance in both [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. While he does not appear in the games' Story Mode, he is playable in the Battle Mode when a FireRed or LeafGreen cartridge is used, with a male player character chosen. He can take on Mt. Battle's 100-battle challenge, as well as compete in Colosseum battles.

===Pokémon Battle Revolution===
Red made a brief appearance in the debut trailer of [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], having a [[Double Battle]] against {{ga|Leaf}}, using a {{p|Deoxys}} in its Attack Forme and a {{p|Wailord}}. Despite this, he didn't appear in the final cut of the game.

==In spin-off games==
===Pokémon Masters===
Red appears in as a supporting character in [[Pokémon Masters]]'s story. So far, has only been made playable in his [[Sygna Suit]] appearance.

===Super Smash Bros. series===
[[File:Pokemon Trainer Brawl.png|thumb|250px|left|Red in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] with his Pokémon.]]
[[File:Pokemon Trainer SSBU.png|thumb|250px|right|Red in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].]]

====Pokémon Trainer====
{{main|Pokémon Trainer (Super Smash Bros.)}}

Red is known as the "Pokémon Trainer" in the [[Super Smash Bros. series]]. He has a team consisting of {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, and {{p|Charizard}}. Rather than fighting himself like most other characters, Red sends his three Pokémon into battle, switching between them in order. He is voiced by [[Michele Knotz]] in the English version and 半場友恵 ''[[Tomoe Hanba]]'' in the Japanese version.

Red debuted as a playable character in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. He was absent from [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]], the only game in the series where his {{SSB|Charizard}} is available as an individual fighter. In [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]], Red returned, and additionally {{ga|Leaf}} debuted as part of his palette swaps, sharing the same title of "Pokémon Trainer".

====Other references====
* Red's hat appears as an alternate outfit worn by {{SSB|Pikachu}} from [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] onward, possibly in specific reference to [[Pokémon Yellow Version]] (which, in turn, was inspired by the anime).
* In [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]], Red is featured as a trophy to represent Pokémon Trainers.

==In the TFG==
There are three {{TFG|Trainer figure|Trainer figures}} based on Red with his design from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, except with different names and colors.

* {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Red|42}} (Japanese: レッド ''Red'') from {{TFG|Next Quest}}, wearing his usual red clothes.
* {{TFG ID|Groundbreakers|Green|39}} (Japanese: グリーン ''Green'') from {{TFG|Groundbreakers}}, with green hat, shirt and shoes.
* {{TFG ID|Unnamed Third Set|Yellow|42}} (Japanese: イエロー ''Yellow''), from the {{TFG|Unnamed Third Set}}, with yellow hat, shirt and shoes.

The Red figure is part of the single released set, Next Quest. The other two sets were not released, so the Green and Yellow figures were not released either.

==Counterparts==
===In the anime===
====In the main series====
{{main|Ash Ketchum}}
{{main|Ash Ketchum (M20)}}
[[File:Ash debut.png|thumb|220px|left|Ash Ketchum, Red's {{pkmn|anime}} counterpart]]
Red's [[Cross-canon counterpart|anime counterpart]], introduced in the [[EP001|first episode]], is the anime's main character, Ash Ketchum. Like Red, Ash is from Pallet Town, on a {{pkmn|journey}} to become a Pokémon Master. Unlike Red, Ash's journey did not end with Kanto, and Ash has continued through every other region introduced in the [[core series]] games, as well as the [[Orange Archipelago]] south of Kanto, taking the place of the player characters of Generation II during Johto and Generation V during Unova, and being joined by the anime counterparts of {{ga|May}}, {{ga|Dawn}}, and {{ga|Serena}} during the Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Kalos sagas respectively. Instead of starting with one of the standard three Kanto starters, however, Ash began his journey with a {{AP|Pikachu}}, inspiring {{game|Yellow}}'s creation, as well as causing some to consider Red and Ash to be exactly the same person, most especially due to Red owning {{ga|Red's Pikachu|one}} as well.

Red has another anime counterpart, {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|an alternate Ash Ketchum}}, who appeared in ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'' and ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]''; these {{pkmn|movie}}s are set in a timeline separate from the main series. This Ash shares the same basic characteristics as the main Ash.

====In Pokémon Origins====
{{main|Red (Origins)}}
[[File:Blaine Arcanine PO.png|thumb|220px|Red in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Red also had a direct counterpart that appeared as the main character of the [[Pokémon Origins]] mini-series, which takes place in a separate continuity. This counterpart shared Red's name, in-game role, and design from FireRed and LeafGreen.

====In Pokémon Generations====
[[File:Red PG.png|thumb|220px|left|Red in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]
Another direct counterpart of Red appeared in [[Pokémon Generations]]. He first appeared in ''[[PG01|The Adventure]]'', where he {{pkmn2|caught}} a {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} in [[Viridian Forest]]. He then went on to experience various other adventures with his Pikachu across other regions, during which he encountered various {{pkmn2|wild}} and [[Legendary Pokémon]].

Red briefly reappeared at the end of ''[[PG03|The Challenger]]'', having just defeated the [[Elite Four]] at [[Indigo Plateau]], and preparing to challenge {{ga|Blue}} for the title of the {{pkmn|Champion}}.

Like the [[core series]] games, Red is not heard speaking during his appearances.

Red encountered Pikachu while in [[Viridian Forest]]. He sent out his {{p|Bulbasaur}} against it, but {{pkmn2|caught}} it in a {{i|Poké Ball}} without battling. After catching it, Red immediately let it out its Poké Ball and had it battle a {{p|Caterpie}}.

Pikachu continued to travel with its trainer throughout [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], [[Unova]], and [[Kalos]], battling against Pokémon such as {{p|Wooper}}, {{p|Vigoroth}}, {{p|Probopass}}, {{p|Regigigas}}, {{p|Volcarona}}, and {{p|Noivern}}.}}

* When Red caught Pikachu, he was revealed to have already obtained at least two other Pokémon besides Bulbasaur.

=====Achievements=====
======Badges obtained======
This listing is of the [[Badge]]s Red has obtained in the [[Kanto]] region:
* At least eight Badges (prior to ''[[PG03|The Challenger]]'')

====In the Pokémon Masters Trailer====
[[File:Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer.png|thumb|250px|Red (background) with {{ga|Blue}} in the [[Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer]]]]
Red briefly appeared in the [[Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer]]. Alongside {{ga|Blue}}, he observed, from afar on a balcony, a {{pkmn|battle}} between two trios: [[Bettie]], [[Iris]], and {{ga|Barry}}; and [[Skyla]], {{EF|Flint}}, and [[Acerola]].

===In the manga===
Red, like most player characters, also has several counterparts in various Pokémon manga series.

====In the Pokémon Adventures manga====
{{main|Red (Adventures)}}
Red is Red's direct counterpart in [[Pokémon Adventures]].

====In the Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys manga====
Red was briefly mentioned in ''[[GB02|Falkner The Bird Keeper's Challenge!!]]'' by [[Professor Oak]], who said that {{GnB|Gold}} looks similar to him. However, due to the manga ending soon after Gold reaching [[Cianwood City]], Red was never physically seen.

====In the Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure manga====
[[File:Red JBA.png|thumb|150px|Red in Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure]]
Red debuted as a silhouette in [[JBA5]]. He then physically debuted in [[JBA6]]. He was first mentioned by {{ga|Blue}} after [[Jō]]'s battle with the {{ci|Viridian}} [[Gym Leader]]. Jō later encountered Red when he reached the top of [[Mt. Silver]], ready to battle him.

===In the Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission manga===
Red appeared in a fantasy in ''[[PR1|Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission Episode One]]''.

==Trivia==
[[File:GameFreak 1997 fanbook MC Satoshi.jpg|right|thumb|152px|Red was once called "Satoshi" by Game Freak]]
[[File:Ash Gary game.png|thumb|160px|Red and Blue called "Ash" and "Gary" in the Nintendo Power guide]]
[[File:Ash hat OS concept art.jpg|right|thumb|160px|Concept art of original series Ash's hat]]
* In the ''Official Fan Book of Pocket Monsters'' (Japanese: '''{{j|ポケットモンスター公式ファンブック}}''') from 1997, [[Game Freak]] teased the supposed appearances of Red, [[Professor Oak]], and [[Giovanni]] in the upcoming {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} games.<ref>[http://hakuda2.web.fc2.com/ir/poke4/b5.html ボツポケモン応援隊] ([https://archive.is/JR0Yn archived copy])</ref> They called Red '''Satoshi''' (Japanese: '''{{j|サトシ}}'''), the Japanese name of his anime counterpart {{Ash}}, which is also the namesake of the [[Satoshi Tajiri|creator of the franchise]] and one of his default names, indicating that this is what they originally intended to call him before settling on the name "Red", one of the two original color versions of the games.
** {{ga|Ethan}}'s name was also hardcoded as Satoshi in the {{wp|Nintendo Space World}} 1997 demo of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.
* In the ''[[Pokémon: Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]'' (Nintendo Power, 1998), Red and {{ga|Blue}} are named "Ash" and "{{Gary}}", their counterparts from the anime.
* Red's title screen and profile front sprites from {{game|Red and Green|s}} correspond to his earlier [[Capsule Monsters]] artwork instead of his final [[Generation I]] artwork. His title screen sprite was updated in {{game|Blue| (Japanese)}} but the profile front sprite remained unchanged.
** In {{game|Yellow}}, he has no title screen sprite and his front sprite is updated in part to match his official artwork and possibly in part to match [[Ash Ketchum]], his anime counterpart, as the frontal section of his hat has the same division in the middle as [[Ash's hat]] from the [[original series]].
* Ash's hat in the [[original series]] of the {{pkmn|anime}} was initially designed to be similar to Red's hat from {{game|Red and Green|s}} before undergoing several changes until the final design.
* Red's [[party]] in the Generation II games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} is based heavily on in-game events from the Generation I games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}:
** {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, and {{p|Pikachu}} are the [[game mascot]]s of the four Generation I games: Pokémon Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow. They are also available in all iterations of the original [[Kanto]] plot;
** {{p|Espeon}} could have been obtained as an {{p|Eevee}} in [[Celadon City]], and Eevee notably serves as {{ga|Blue}}'s {{pkmn2|starter}} in Pokémon Yellow;
** {{p|Lapras}} is given away by a [[Silph Co.]] employee shortly before [[Team Rocket]] is defeated there;
** Two {{p|Snorlax}} are required to be caught or defeated in order to travel to [[Fuchsia City]]. Furthermore, in the Generation II games and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, only the Snorlax that was previously blocking {{rt|12|Kanto}} (now blocking the entrance to [[Diglett's Cave]]) is available to the {{player}}, suggesting that Red defeated and caught the one blocking {{rt|16|Kanto}}.
*** All of these {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are also obtainable within Pokémon Yellow: {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} is obtained as the starter Pokémon; Venusaur can be evolved from the {{p|Bulbasaur}} obtained in [[Cerulean City]]; Blastoise can be evolved from the {{p|Squirtle}} obtained in [[Vermilion City]]; Charizard can be evolved from the {{p|Charmander}} obtained on {{rt|24|Kanto}}; and Snorlax, Eevee, and Lapras can be obtained by the aforementioned in-game events.
*** In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the four game mascots all know their [[Generation III]] [[signature move]]s: Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise know {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, {{m|Blast Burn}} and {{m|Hydro Cannon}}, respectively, while Pikachu knows {{m|Volt Tackle}}. Furthermore, his Pikachu's moveset coincides with the four moves that [[Ash's Pikachu]] used during ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'' of the anime: Volt Tackle, {{m|Quick Attack}}, {{m|Iron Tail}}, and {{m|Thunderbolt}}.
** In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, apart from his Venusaur and Blastoise being fully evolved, Red's team is identical to that of [[Ash Ketchum]] throughout most of the [[S02|Orange Islands]] anime arc ([[Ash's Bulbasaur]] and {{AP|Squirtle}} were at the time, and still are presently, in their base forms).
* At level 88, Red's Pikachu in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} is the highest-leveled Pokémon owned by a non-player character outside of battle facilities.
** However, in {{game|Black and White|s}}, the level of {{tc|Lass}} Dye's {{p|Whimsicott}}{{sup/5|B}}/{{p|Lilligant}}{{sup/5|W}} in [[Nacrene City]] is variable and can exceed that of Red's Pikachu, depending on the level of the Pokémon that is [[trade]]d to her.
* When Red is encountered at the summit of Mt. Silver during Generation II and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, he has no speech, merely repeating sets of {{wp|ellipsis|ellipses}}  before beginning the {{pkmn|battle}}. This is a reference to his silent role in [[Generation I]], as he only answered choice questions like <sc>Yes</sc> or <sc>No</sc>. This unique characteristic remains in later [[generation]]s, especially in the [[remake]]s.
** In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, {{ga|Blue}} sarcastically calls him a "chatty gossip".
*** Blue also jokes about this in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]].
** Despite the ellipses before the battle, when talking to {{OBP|Copycat|character}} in Generation I and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the dialogue is the following:

{{sign|FRLGspeech|header}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|<Player>: Hi!}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|Do you like POKéMON?}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|<Player>: Uh, no, I just asked you.}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|<Player>: Huh?}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|You’re strange!}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|COPYCAT: Hmm? Quit mimicking?}}
{{sign|FRLGspeech|But, that’s my favorite hobby!}}

[[File:Red Charmander Kotobukiya.jpg|thumb|150px|Charmander and Red's statue.]]
* Hidden data in the [[Generation I]] games reveals placeholder names for Red and {{ga|Blue}}:
** The unused default name for Red in the English [[Generation I]] games is <sc>[[Nintendo|Ninten]]</sc> while {{ga|Blue}}'s is <sc>{{wp|Sony}}</sc>. While it is impossible to view these names during regular gameplay, changing a few {{wp|memory address}}es in {{wp|Random-access memory|RAM}} can allow for these names to appear as shown [http://acmlm.kafuka.org/board/thread.php?pid=18912#18912 here]. This references the fact that in the years surrounding the releases of the Generation I games, Sony was Nintendo's main competition. {{wb|Ninten}} is also the default name of the main protagonist of {{wb|Mother (video game)|Mother}}, a game developed by [[Creatures, Inc.]].
** In the Japanese [[Generation I]] games, the unused default names for Red and Blue differ between {{game|Red and Green|s}} and {{game|Blue| (Japanese)}} and then between the latter and {{game|Yellow}}:<ref>[http://iimarck.us/i/default-names/ Default names]</ref>
*** In Pokémon Red and Green, Red's unused default name is やまぐち ''Yamaguchi'' while Blue's is いしはら ''Ishihara''. Yamaguchi refers to Wataru Yamaguchi, an art director that worked on the original games, while Ishihara refers to [[Tsunekazu Ishihara]], the current president and {{wp|Chief executive officer|CEO}} of [[The Pokémon Company]] and who was the games' producer at the time.
*** In Pokémon Blue, the unused default names for Red and Blue are, respectively, ゲーフリ ''Gēfuri'', an abbreviation of [[Game Freak]]'s name in Japanese (ゲームフリーク ''Gēmu Furīku''), and クリチャ ''Kuricha'', a reference to [[Creatures, Inc.]]
*** In {{game|Yellow}}, Blue's unused default name remained unaltered while Red's was subtly altered by gaining an extra digit (ゲーフリ１).
* Much like there is minimal information on his {{Ash|anime counterpart}}'s father, Red's father is mentioned only briefly when examining an {{wp|Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES}} at the [[Celadon Department Store]] in the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Red is the only {{pkmn|Trainer}} who uses the {{pkmn|battle}} transition effect from [[Generation II]].
* All of his anime and manga counterparts also own a {{p|Pikachu}}, excluding {{Zensho|Satoshi}} from Pokémon Zensho who evolved his one into a {{p|Raichu}}.
* Along with {{ga|Blue}}, [[Lance]], and the [[Generation I]] and {{Gen|III}} [[Kanto]] [[Gym Leader]]s (excluding Giovanni and Koga), Red has appeared in almost every [[generation]] of the [[Pokémon games]], with six out of eight so far. He is the only protagonist with this feat.
* Red and [[Lance]] share the same unique {{pkmn|Champion}} battle music in [[Johto]]-based games and {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}'s [[Champions Tournament]].
* Red's T-shirt in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]] bears the number 96, referencing the original Japanese release year of Pokémon Red and Green.
* Red is the only protagonist to be fought, as an NPC, outside of the generation he was introduced in. The games being in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], and [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].
* A Trainer closely resembling an older Red briefly appears in ''{{mov|Detective Pikachu}}'', where he is shown in a promotional advertisement on the train to [[Ryme City]]. This Trainer is played by Japanese actor Ryoma Takeuchi.
* The action figures company Kotobukiya announced a version of a Red and Charmander statue to be launched in Japan by the ARTFX J collection.

RKS System (Ability)

2020-08-07T21:29:15Z

Suic12-: Undo revision 3223034 by Nihkee (talk) That seems to be kind of a stretch, since this ability has nothing to do with augmented reality

'''RKS System''' (Japanese: '''ＡＲシステム''' ''AR System'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation VII]]. It is the [[signature Ability]] of {{p|Silvally}}.

==Effect==
===In battle===
RKS System changes the [[type]] of the Pokémon with this Ability depending on the [[memory]] attached.

{{m|Role Play}}, {{m|Gastro Acid}}, {{m|Worry Seed}}, {{m|Simple Beam}}, and {{m|Entrainment}} fail if the target has the Ability RKS System. {{m|Skill Swap}} fails if either Pokémon has RKS System. RKS System cannot be copied by {{a|Trace}}, {{a|Power of Alchemy}}, or {{a|Receiver}}. RKS System cannot be replaced by {{a|Mummy}} or suppressed by {{m|Core Enforcer}}. If a Pokémon other than Silvally obtains RKS System with {{a|Imposter}} or {{m|Transform}}, the Pokémon will copy the form of the target Silvally regardless of its own held item.

===Outside of battle===
RKS System has no effect outside of battle.

* The name of this Ability is a reference to {{p|Arceus}}, with its English name being similar to the pronunciation of "Arceus". In {{pmin|Germany|German}}, {{pmin|Spain|Spanish}}, {{pmin|France|French}}, and {{pmin|Italy|Italian}}, its name is instead a reference to Arceus's {{pkmn|category}}, the Alpha Pokémon.
** The company {{DL|Poké Job|List of companies|RKS Laboratories}} (Japanese: '''アルセウス{{tt|製薬|せいやく}}''' ''Arceus Pharma'') in [[Galar]] has a logo similar to the rings on Arceus's body, furthering the connection.

'''Justified''' (Japanese: '''せいぎのこころ''' ''Heart of Justice'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

==Effect==
===In battle===
When a Pokémon with Justified is hit by a {{type|Dark}} damaging move, its {{stat|Attack}} is increased by one stage. This ability does not provide immunity or reduction to the damage, nor does it activate from a Dark-type move hitting its {{m|Substitute}}. Dark-type [[multi-strike move]]s (such as {{m|Beat Up}}) will activate Justified once per strike, increasing the Attack stat that many stages.

===Outside of battle===
Justified has no effect outside of battle.

'''Rattled''' (Japanese: '''びびり''' ''Jitter'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

==Effect==
===In battle===
====Generations V to VII====
When a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by a {{t|Bug}}-, {{t|Dark}}-, or {{type|Ghost}} damaging move, its {{stat|Speed}} is increased by one stage. No immunity is granted to these types of moves, however.

If a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by a Bug-, Dark-, or Ghost-type [[multi-strike move]] (such as {{m|Pin Missile}}), each hit activates this Ability.
====Generation VIII====
Rattled now activates if a Pokémon with this Ability is affected by {{a|Intimidate}}.

===Outside of battle===
Rattled has no effect outside of battle.

Bulbapedia talk:Project ItemDex

2020-07-31T12:55:50Z

Suic12-: /* Add (item) to the title of every item article */

==Projects Page==
Why isn't this listed on the page that lists Bulbapedia Projects? It would be very helpful for you all if more people were aware that you have this project going on. --[[User:LynnCreed|LynnCreed]] 11:05, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

==Standards and/or infoboxes?==
I know this is a fresh project, but what kind of standards should we have for the articles? Most of the item articles will likely be like [[Potion]] and [[Held items]], with a list of items by group, so maybe these two articles (maybe Potion more than Held items) should be the basis for a standard. As for an infobox, I personally think that it would be unnecessary. What I do think is necessary, though, as I said at [[Talk:Item]], is a footer template that links the articles. --[[User:TwinsMetsFan|'''TMF''']] [[User talk:TwinsMetsFan|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/TwinsMetsFan|C]] 21:03, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
:Concur'd. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 22:11, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
::Pie, what do you think of having the TOC aligned right like I have it set up on [[Held items]]? For shorter articles, this wouldn't be necessary, but for ones with many headings (as Held items will when it is completed), the aligned-right TOC allows users to view the contents of the article while allowing those users to get right to the article. --[[User:TwinsMetsFan|'''TMF''']] [[User talk:TwinsMetsFan|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/TwinsMetsFan|C]] 17:35, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
:::I think it's a good idea, and certainly helps with the held items article. For ones with less items, such as potion and ether, I agree, it's not really necessary. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 18:03, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
:[[User:TTEchidna|TTEchidna]]'s suggestion for the organization of [[List of items by type]] (at that page's talk page) makes for a good base to draft such a template.

==Merging articles==
Given the sheer number of Items and how simple and similar to other items many of them are, I think we can all agree that the group articles system is best, right? So, on that note, some things which need merging...
*[[Metal Coat]], obviously, needs to be merged onto the [[held items]] page.
*[[Mach Bike]] and [[Acro Bike]] - given the size of these articles, perhaps they should be added to the main [[Bicycle]] article. I mean, personally, I don't see why they were split off.
*[[Old Rod]], [[Good Rod]] and [[Super Rod]] - again, given the size of these articles, perhaps they should be merged into a Rod article.
*[[Blue Flute]] should be in a group article with other glass flutes - or, perhaps, the glass flutes, the [[Time Flute]], and the [[Poké Flute]] should be altogether. However, despite all being flutes, the glass flutes do seem quite different from the Time Flute and Poké Flute - and it isn't unusual for us to have separate article for unusual parts of an item group which more can be said about - note all the links near the bottom of the [[Poké Ball]] article. Perhaps something like that could be done for the Flute article.
Thoughts? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 22:11, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

:Points 1 through 3: completely agree. Point 4: we should definitely create a Flute article that covers every flute. This article would be the main page for the glass flutes and would have a blurb about the Poké and Time flutes, along with a link to the main articles (using [[Template:Main]] preferably, see [[Goldenrod City]] for how I've implemented it). --[[User:TwinsMetsFan|'''TMF''']] [[User talk:TwinsMetsFan|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/TwinsMetsFan|C]] 22:32, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

::...Eh, hope you don't mind. I already merged the Rod articles into the [[Fishing]] one, and made those redirects. I maybe should've joined the project first, but I'm new here so I don't know much (though I did my research to make the redirects and headings and everything...)

:::Doesn't seem like a very active project... Anyway, already merged the Mach and Acro Bike articles into the main [[Bicycle]] article, and made those redirects to their specific section.

::::This is Bulbapedia, all our projects are kinda slow-moving. ^^o Anyway, TTE has been disputing the idea of not giving articles to the individual items... essentially giving us one or two big overall articles (item and the list), a good number of articles for the item families, and a buttload of short individual articles. So, I eventually gave him an ultimatum... that the only way we can have the individual item articles is if people can show me that they can expand articles enough that we won't have ten billion stubs on our hands. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 05:03, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

== Items in Generation IV/Diamond Pearl ==

Some of the Item locations for the first three Generations swap between the games and grouping the entire Generations, which seems OK enough as some items are found the same way in every game in that Generation, but where there already is Diamond/Pearl information, a lot of it is tagged as Generation IV data. Considering there are likely to be quite a number of additions to Generation IV and that it can't be confirmed that the same methods will be distributed across all the games, I'd say it makes sense just to use ([[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl|D/P]]) for now and, should the method ring true for every game in the Generation by the time Generation V comes along, just edit that to Generation IV instead.

I've done this with all the items in the Held Items page, but would like to put forward that it become a standard.--[[User:Doctor Oak|Doctor Oak]] 17:35, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

:This seems relevant to your project, so I thought I'd give you a heads up. There's now a [[List of key items in Generation IV]]. It could use a proofread or two and is missing out on both sprites and some descriptions of items that leave inventory after use. -[[User:Pdrydia|Pdrydia]] 23:09, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

== Item template inclusion ==

Is there any logic as to when an item gets an {{template|Item}} template on an article? For example, that template is used for every item on [[Legendary artifacts]], but for the "main articles", its usage is restricted to [[Drive]], [[Colored orbs]], [[Timespace orbs]], and [[Dragon Stones]], while it's absent from [[Silver and Rainbow Wings]] as well as all others that only deal with a single item; the template is absent from the [[Fossil]] page (that's been linked to from the main {{template|Items}} template), as well as the individual fossil pages.

(Personally, I've often found myself browsing pages real quick just to grab that template; its design is remarkable, and it contains the most important info. We seem to prefer to direct to the most specific articles, of course, including when just typing something like "Red Orb" or "Helix Fossil" in the search bar. I can understand how the template's inclusion on single-item articles in particular ''may'' counteract a good article (design), though. I mean, the "main articles" technically do contain the information from the super-articles, but they do sometimes lack the template.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 08:49, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

== Add (item) to the title of every item article ==

I think this is something we should do for clarity, and for consistency with the moves and abilities as well as stuff like [[Black Belt (item)]] and [[Metronome (item)]]. [[User:Sumwun|sumwun]] ([[User talk:Sumwun|talk]]) 19:33, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

::I don't really have any strong preference in this matter, but in the up side it would probably simplify linking to item articles through templates. Right now many party templates link to the disambiguation articles for black belt and metronome.
::On the other hand it would be redundant or awkward for some pages, such as TMs. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 12:55, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

'''Teleport''' (Japanese: '''テレポート''' ''Teleport'') is a non-damaging {{type|Psychic}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[TM30]] in Generation I and [[TM04]] in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].

==Effect==
===In battle===
====Generation I====
In {{pkmn2|wild}} battles, the user flees and the battle ends. If the user's level is less than the opponent's level, there is a chance that Teleport will fail; specifically, the chance to fail is <code>FLOOR(OpponentLevel ÷ 4) ÷ (OpponentLevel + UserLevel + 1)</code>. This means that the chance of failure is between about 12.5% and 25%, with higher chances when the opponent's level is much greater than the user's.

In {{pkmn|Trainer}} battles, Teleport always fails.

====Generation II====
If Teleport is used by the player's Pokémon, it can still fail because of the opponent's level, but this no longer applies to wild Pokémon using Teleport due to a bug.

Teleport will fail if the user is trapped by a {{cat|Trapping moves|trapping move}} (except {{cat|binding moves}}).

In this generation only, Teleport fails in battles with Pokémon encountered as traps in the [[Team Rocket HQ|Team Rocket's Hideout]], the [[GS Ball]] {{p|Celebi}}, the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]] {{p|Suicune}} (in Crystal), and the scripted [[Red Gyarados]].

====Generations III and IV====
Teleport fails if used in a wild battle that is not a Single Battle. Teleport can no longer fail due to the user's level being less than the opponent's level.

Teleport will now fail if the user is trapped by any {{cat|Trapping moves|trapping move}} (including {{m|Ingrain}} and {{cat|binding moves}}) or {{cat|Trapping Abilities|Ability}}. If the user is holding a [[Smoke Ball]], Teleport will succeed regardless of trapping moves and Abilities.

Teleport can be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining an extra appeal point if any of the moves {{m|Confusion}}, {{m|Double Team}}, {{m|Kinesis}}, or {{m|Psychic}} was used in the prior turn.

====Generation V====
Teleport will succeed regardless of {{m|Ingrain}}. If the user is owned by a Trainer and holding a [[Smoke Ball]], Teleport will succeed regardless of trapping moves and Abilities; if the user is a wild Pokémon, Teleport will fail if the user is affected by a trapping move or Ability, even if it is holding a [[Smoke Ball]].

====Generation VI====
If the user is holding a [[Smoke Ball]], Teleport will succeed regardless of trapping moves and Abilities.

====Generation VII====
Teleport always fails in battles during [[Island challenge|trials]]. [[SOS Battle]]s are considered Single Battles as long as there is only a single opponent.

If powered up by a [[Psychium Z]] into Z-Teleport, the user regains all of its HP.

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], Teleport switches the user out. It has -6 [[priority]].

====Generation VIII====
Teleport no longer ends a battle with wild Pokémon, instead retaining its effect from [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].

===Outside of battle===
Prior to [[Generation VII]], using Teleport outside of battle warps the {{player}} to the last [[Pokémon Center]] visited. Starting in [[Generation IV]], Teleport can also return the player to [[Player's house|their house]] if that has been visited most recently.

In [[Generation I]], the player must heal their Pokémon at the counter for it to count as a visit. In subsequent generations, the player only needs to enter the location.

Teleport can only be used outside, with the same restrictions as {{m|Fly}}. Additionally, in [[Generation IV]] only, Teleport cannot be used in towns and cities.

'''Rillaboom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴリランダー''' ''Gorirander'') is a {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VIII]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Thwackey}} starting at [[level]] 35. It is the final form of {{p|Grookey}}.

Rillaboom has a [[Gigantamax]] form that was introduced in [[The Isle of Armor]].

==Biology==
Rillaboom is a bipedal, ape-like Pokémon. Its body is mostly mud-brown in coloration, including its face and body, as well as its thick arms and legs. Its face has an orange mouth, with a dark brown nose. This dark brown coloration is also seen on its triangular ears, as well as under its eyes, which themselves have orange irises and white pupils. Its forehead is a light tan color, as well as its chest, abs, hands, and feet. It also has a bow-shaped mark of the same color on each shoulder. Rillaboom also has leaves protruding from its head, creating a thick bush of hair on its head, with a single vine that falls from its forehead like a strand of hair. It also has a belt and cuffs made of leaves. Rillaboom always carries its signature drum with it on its back, and pulls it out when engaged in battle. This bass drum is crafted from a tree stump, with several thick branch stumps protruding from it, which form both the legs of the bass drum as well as mid and high toms. Rillaboom also carries two drumsticks in its cuffs and takes them out to beat its drum.

By drumming, Rillaboom can tap into the power of its special tree stump. The roots of the stump follow the direction of drumming in battle. A Rillaboom with the best drumming technique can become the leader of its troop. Due to its kind disposition, it values harmony within the group. Rillaboom is very sensitive towards discord that could threaten the group's harmony, so it keeps a strict watch for such actions. Due to its strong sense of unity, it will ferociously defend its allies from trouble.<ref> https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon-galar-region/rillaboom/</ref>

As Gigantamax Rillaboom, its upper body has been fused with its enlarged tree-stump drum. The stump has changed to resemble a full drum kit. The leaves expands to become four arms, each holding a drum stick while its single vine stands up and curls at the tip. Three red clouds float above it.

Rillaboom, as a result of Gigantamaxing, has become more powerful due to fusing with the drum. It can control the sticks of the drum to perform transcendental drumming techniques. It is compelled to drum due to its power building up from inside. The sounds it makes can reach across oceans and other regions. Those who hear the beat will start to dance uncontrollably.<ref>https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/expansionpass/pokemon/gigantamax-rillaboom/</ref>

Rillaboom is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using the move {{m|Drum Beating}} and exclusive [[G-Max Move]] {{m|G-Max Drum Solo}}.

==Trivia==
* Rillaboom has the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all fully evolved [[starter Pokémon]].

===Origin===
Rillaboom may be based on a {{wp|gorilla}} with elements from {{wp|drummer}}s, most notably ''{{wp|Taiko}}'' drummers. Its behavior may reference the fact that gorillas {{wp|Drum#Animal drumming|make drumming sounds}} by beating their chests to show {{wp|Social dominance theory|social dominance}}. It may also take inspiration from the belief that music stimulates plant growth.

Rillaboom's Gigantamax form seems to draw inspiration from modern {{wp|rock music|rock}} drummers.
====Name origin====
Rillaboom may be a combination of ''gorilla'' and ''boom''.

Gorirander may be a combination of ''gorilla'' and 乱打 ''randa'' (battering).

Rematch

2020-07-20T18:04:50Z

Suic12-: /* Pokémon Sword and Shield */

{{incomplete|needs=Missing Japanese name and update on ORAS and SM}}
A '''rematch''' or '''re-battle''' is a second or subsequent battle against a {{pkmn|Trainer}} or {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

In the core series games, it is mandatory for the {{player}} to defeat certain Trainers to advance within the game. Technically, if the player is defeated, they are given the chance to battle this opponent again until defeated (barring exceptional circumstances), but this isn't considered a rematch.

Most of the time, however, if a Trainer is defeated, that Trainer will not be available for a rematch until certain conditions have been met. When Trainers usually agree to rematch, their Pokémon will have become stronger (level up or evolution), or they would already have acquired more Pokémon (sometimes from another region, once the player has obtained the [[National Pokédex]]).

==Types of rematch==
===Regular Trainers===
From [[Generation II]] onwards, with the exception of {{game|Black and White|s}} and {{pkmn|X and Y}}, some regular Trainers found along normal routes and caves can be challenged for a rematch.

In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the player can exchange [[Pokégear]] phone numbers with specific Trainers, allowing them to contact the player for a rematch. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Trainers' teams have three different difficulty levels: the first level is used in the first rematch, the second after the player has first entered the [[Hall of Fame]], and the third after the player has obtained all 16 [[Badge]]s.

In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, the [[PokéNav]]'s {{DL|PokéNav|Trainer's Eyes}} or {{DL|PokéNav|Match Call}} has similar functions to the Pokégear, keeping track of Trainers who eventually want to re-battle the player. In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], the Trainer's Eye function returns, and Trainers are ready for a rematch more frequently than in [[Generation III]]; in these games, the Trainers' teams improve as the player progresses through the game, and are at their strongest after the player has entered the Hall of Fame.

[[File:Vs Seeker demonstration FRLG.png|thumb|{{ga|Red}} uses the Vs. Seeker on {{rt|25|Kanto}}. Three Trainers wish to have a rematch.]]

In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, while outdoors, the player can use the [[Vs. Seeker]] to check which nearby Trainers are ready for a rematch.

In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, certain Trainers can be challenged daily at the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]]. In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, the player can battle one Trainer per day at [[Jubilife TV]], with the Trainer that appears varying with the [[days of the week|day of the week]]. In Pokémon Platinum, players can challenge several Trainers that appear in different [[Pokémon Center]]s once per day each, as well as repeatedly battle the {{tc|Maid}}s in the 5-Maid Knockout Exact-Turn Attack Challenge in the {{si|Pokémon Mansion}}.

In {{game|Black and White|s}} and {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Trainers in the [[Big Stadium and Small Court]] of [[Nimbasa City]] can be rematched daily. As the player progresses through the game, the Trainers' Pokémon are battled at higher levels, and will be at their strongest after the player has entered the Hall of Fame. Some Trainers may replace their Pokémon. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}s will re-challenge the player upon sight (as long as the player has left the area since their last battle), even if the player had previously defeated them; however, their teams remain the same during each battle.

In [[Pokémon X and Y]], Trainers in the [[Battle Chateau]] can be battled each time that Trainer has entered the Battle Chateau. Only those whose rank is the same as or lower than the player's will appear. The player can purchase {{DL|Battle Chateau|writs}} to have an effect on three different factors (party levels, [[prize money]], and Trainer arrival rate) for the remainder of that day, although issued writs can be swapped out if the new one has the same type of effect.

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], certain Trainers can be challenged daily at the [[Battle Buffet]] at [[Hau'oli City]]'s Shopping District.

In [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and {{Pokémon XD}}, there are certain areas that allow for multiple rematches, most notably in [[Pyrite Town]]'s Duel Square. Other locations such as [[Agate Village]] and [[The Under Subway]] allow for rematches only after getting past a certain point in the game.

===Rival===
[[File:Route 22 Rival battle RBY.png|thumb|Encountering the Rival on {{rt|22|Kanto}}]]
Since Generation I, the player's [[rival]] plays a key role within the game, occasionally giving hints, helping out or even challenging the player to a rematch. With the exception of {{ga|Brendan}} and {{ga|May}}, the player's rival can be repeatedly rematched after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] of that region. In {{ga|Silver}}'s case however, he can only be rematched after the battle in [[Mt. Moon]]{{sup/2|GSC}} or the [[Multi Battle]] with him in [[Dragon's Den]]{{sup/4|HGSS}}.

The following table shows where and when the player's Rival can be challenged for subsequent rematches:

===Gym Leaders===
[[Gym Leader]] rematches were first introduced in {{game|Emerald}}. They are featured in all subsequent core series games with Gym Leaders, except for Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Black, White, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire.

====Pokémon Emerald====
In {{game|Emerald}}, after the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], Gym Leaders will offer to rematch the player in a [[Double Battle]] via the [[PokéNav]]'s {{DL|PokéNav|Match Call}}. Unlike regular Trainers, walking in the same area as a Gym Leader does not make them more likely to be ready for a rematch. Each Gym Leader has four teams, ordered from lowest [[level]]s to highest levels, and they will use each team after the player defeats their previous team. All teams contain Pokémon outside the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Hoenn Pokédex]].

[[File:Battleground Pt.png|230px|thumb|Battleground (from left): Maylene, Volkner, the player, the Café owner]]

====Pokémon Platinum====
{{main|Battleground}}
In {{game|Platinum}}, the Gym Leaders of [[Sinnoh]], together with the player's previous [[Stat Trainers|Multi Battle partners]], can be found in the [[Battleground]]. Up to four of these {{pkmn|Trainer}}s appear each day and they can be battled only once a day. The residing Trainers are generated upon entering the Battleground, potentially allowing for different Trainers after game resets.

====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver====
[[File:Fighting Dojo HGSS.png|230px|thumb|left|The Fighting Dojo with all the Gym Leaders]]
{{main|Fighting Dojo}}
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] are found in the [[Fighting Dojo]]. However, unlike Platinum, the Leaders will not arrive at the Dojo until they have been called on for a rematch.

To re-battle a Gym Leader, the player has to first obtain the Gym Leader's number. Following that, the player can call the Gym Leader at any time, but the Gym Leader will only accept a rematch when their schedule is free.

When a Gym Leader has accepted a rematch, they will stay in the [[Fighting Dojo]] until they are defeated. There is no limit to the number of times a Gym Leader can be rematched.

Note that the phone numbers for most of the Leaders can be obtained after defeating the [[Elite Four]]. However, rematches with the Gym Leaders cannot be scheduled until after the {{Badge|Earth}} has been obtained (i.e. {{ga|Blue}} has been defeated).

=====Gym Leader phone listing=====
Each Leader's telephone number must be obtained from them personally when the Leader is out of their Gym (except Chuck and Blue, which have to be obtained from their wife and sister respectively). By speaking with each Leader at the appropriate time and place, players can obtain their phone numbers.

The following table shows how each Leader's number can be obtained:

=====Gym Leader rematch schedule=====
The following table shows when the Gym Leaders are free to accept a rematch.

As midnight to 3:59 AM is considered to be "night" by the game, any Leader who can be battled at night can be battled from midnight to 3:59 AM or from 8:00 PM to 11:59 PM.

====Pokémon Black 2 and White 2====
{{main|Pokémon World Tournament}}
In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, Gym Leaders can be rematched in the [[Unova Leaders Tournament]] at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].

====Pokémon X and Y====
{{main|Battle Chateau}}
In {{pkmn|X and Y}}, the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Kalos]] can be rematched at the [[Battle Chateau]] once the {{player}} has reached the rank of {{tc|Marquis}} or {{tc|Marchioness}}. The Gym Leaders use two of their Pokémon, who start at [[level]] 40. After the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], the base level of their team is changed to level 50, and the Pokémon for some of the Gym Leaders have been replaced.

Unlike in previous games, the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}} of Kalos do not receive higher level teams when rematched at the {{kal|Pokémon League}}. Instead, they can also be encountered at the Chateau. The Elite Four can be rematched when the player reaches the rank of {{tc|Duke}} or {{tc|Duchess}}. They use three Pokémon at the base level of 55. Finally, Champion [[Diantha]] can be rematched when the player reaches the highest rank, Grand Duke or {{tc|Grand Duchess}}, respectively. She uses four Pokémon, including her {{me|Gardevoir}}, at the base level of 60.

Like other Trainers at the Battle Chateau, issuing certain {{DL|Battle Chateau|writs}} can be used to adjust the levels of the teams used there by Gym Leaders, the Elite Four, and Diantha, as well as giving them the chance to appear more frequently.

====Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], after the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], each Gym Leader of [[Kanto]] can be rematched at their respective Gym once per day. At the [[Viridian Gym]], {{ga|Blue}} is battled instead of [[Giovanni]]. In addition, the Pokémon League can also be challenged again, with all Elite Four members possessing a Kanto Pokémon's {{rf|Alolan|Form}}.

===Pokémon League===
The [[Pokémon League]] can be rematched in all [[core series]] games before {{2v2|Sword|Shield}}; in [[Generation I]], they are the only Trainers that can be rematched. Starting in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, rematches against the [[Elite Four]] and [[Champion]] may feature teams at higher [[level]]s, sometimes with different Pokémon and moves.

====FireRed and LeafGreen====
The [[Indigo Plateau]] will start using higher-level Pokémon once the player has completed the [[Sevii Islands]] post-game quest.

====Platinum====
The {{si|Pokémon League}} uses higher-level Pokémon after the player completes the [[Stark Mountain]] sidequest.

====HeartGold and SoulSilver====
The [[Indigo Plateau]] will start using higher-level Pokémon once the player has earned all 16 [[Badge]]s.

====Generation V====
The {{un|Pokémon League}} uses higher-level Pokémon after the player defeats them the first time.

====Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to Generation VII====
The Pokémon League uses higher-level Pokémon after the player defeats them the first time.

===Title Defense===
[[File:Title Defense USUM.png|thumb|250px|The player defending their title in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}]]
====Pokémon Sun, Moon Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon====
{{main|Pokémon League (Alola)/Title Defense}}
In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], the player, as the first Champion of [[Alola]], has the opportunity to defend their title after compinging their rematches against the Elite Four. In addition to their rivals, [[Hau]] and [[Gladion]], challengers include [[Trial Captain]] [[Sophocles]], [[Island Kahuna]] [[Hapu]], former [[Team Skull]] Admin [[Plumeria]], and the League's founder, [[Professor Kukui]].

====Pokémon Sword and Shield====
In [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], after the player becomes Champion, they can defend their title in subsequent [[Wyndon Stadium/Champion tournaments|Champion tournaments]] in [[Wyndon Stadium]]. Players can invite a sitting Gym Leader, their rival [[Hop]], former Leader [[Piers]], or former Champion [[Leon]] to join the tournament before it starts. However, doing so does not guarantee that the invited trainer will be battled by the player, as they can be defeated in rounds prior to reaching the player. All Gym Leaders featured in the player's game of choice can be challenged through this tournament, except for [[Opal]], who retires her title to one of the player's rivals, [[Bede]].

The player may also visit the hotel in [[Circhester]] after becoming the Champion to battle {{tc|GAME FREAK|GAME FREAK's}} [[Shigeki Morimoto|Morimoto]] daily.

In [[The Isle of Armor]], after the player has defeated [[Mustard]] in the [[Master Dojo|Battle Court]], Mustard and [[Klara]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Avery]]{{sup/8|Sh}} can each be battled once per day. {{gal|Honey}} can also be battled daily after spending enough {{OBP|Watt|currency}}s to upgrade the Master Dojo.

===Legendary and special encounter Pokémon===
{{incomplete|section|needs=Are effort values awarded in mandatory captures? Do rematches also apply for wild Mythical Pokémon?}}
In all games, being defeated by a Legendary Pokémon does not cause it to disappear. In all games in which [[roaming Pokémon]] exist, [[Escape|fleeing]] from them does not cause them to permanently disappear; the game simply behaves the same as if they were the ones to flee.

Prior to Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, fleeing from stationary [[Legendary Pokémon]] causes the Pokémon to permanently disappear.

In Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, and Emerald, if the player flees from a stationary Legendary Pokémon, it will reappear upon leaving and re-entering the room. The game informs the player that "The <sc><Pokémon></sc> flew away!"

In Pokémon Platinum, if the player defeats or flees from a stationary Legendary Pokémon, it reappears after the player next enters the [[Hall of Fame]]. If the player defeats a [[roaming Pokémon]], it will reappear only after the player has re-triggered the event which caused it to start roaming; for example, the player must talk to [[Professor Oak]] to cause a [[Legendary birds|Legendary bird]] to resume roaming. If the player flees from or defeats [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Giratina|Origin Forme]] {{p|Giratina}} in the [[Distortion World]], it will reappear in [[Turnback Cave]] in its Altered Forme, where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon.

This was extended to all stationary Pokémon ([[red Gyarados]], {{p|Sudowoodo}}, and {{p|Snorlax}}) in HeartGold and SoulSilver. If {{p|Suicune}} is defeated or fled from, [[Eusine]] will comment on this fact, and it will instead reappear at the [[Burned Tower]], where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon. If {{p|Ho-Oh}}{{sup/4|HG}} or {{p|Lugia}}{{sup/4|SS}} is defeated or fled from during the storyline, the [[Kimono Girl]]s will comment on this fact before leaving; however, the Pokémon still behave like any other stationary Pokémon.

In Pokémon Black and White, {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|B}} or {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|W}} must be caught; defeating, fleeing from or losing to the Pokémon does not cause it to disappear, the battle yields no [[experience]], and the story cannot be progressed until it is caught. However, if the player has a full [[party]] and [[PC]], it is possible to progress without catching it, in which case it instead appears at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] after defeating [[Ghetsis]], where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon, except that it will still not give any [[experience|experience points]].

In Pokémon X and Y, {{p|Xerneas}}{{sup/6|X}} or {{p|Yveltal}}{{sup/6|Y}} must be caught; defeating, fleeing from or losing to it does not cause it to disappear, the battle yields no [[experience]], and the story cannot be progressed until it is caught. The 31st box in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] does not become available until after the player catches it, so it is not possible to avoid the capture even if the player's party and PC are both full.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, if the player defeats {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/6|OR}} or {{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/6|AS}} instead of catching them in the main story, they will reappear in the [[Cave of Origin]] after entering the Hall of Fame. During the [[Delta Episode]], {{p|Rayquaza}} must be caught; defeating, fleeing from or losing to it does not cause it to disappear, the battle yields no [[experience]], and the story cannot be progressed until it is caught. The 31st box in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] does not become available until after the player catches Rayquaza, so it is not possible to avoid the capture even if the player's party and PC are both full. If the player flees from or defeats {{p|Deoxys}} in during the Delta Episode, it will reappear at the Dragonhark altar atop the [[Sky Pillar]] after entering the Hall of Fame again, where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon.

In Pokémon Sun and Moon, {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|S}} or {{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|M}} must be caught; defeating, fleeing from or losing to it does not cause it to disappear, the battle yields no [[experience]], and the story cannot be progressed until it is caught. The 31st box in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] does not become available until after the player catches the Legendary Pokémon. If the player defeats, flees from, or loses to {{p|Tapu Koko}} instead of catching it during the post-credits event, [[Lillie]] will comment on this fact, and Tapu Koko will immediately be available to battle again at the [[Ruins of Conflict]]. If the player defeats, flees from or loses to a roaming [[Ultra Beast]] or {{p|Necrozma}}, it will continue to reappear in the area until it is caught (the game reassures the player that it is still in the area).

In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|US}} or {{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|UM}} must be caught for it to disappear; defeating, fleeing from or losing to it does not cause it to disappear and the battle yields no [[experience]]. The 31st box in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] does not become available until after the player catches the Legendary Pokémon.

==In spin-off series==
===In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], [[Legendary Pokémon]] that have been battled and are involved in the storyline must be fought again in order to be [[Recruitment|recruited]].

===In the Pokémon Ranger series===
In the [[Pokémon Ranger]] series, the [[Drowsy Guy]] will allow the player to re-do a memorable capture. In {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, he allows the player to re-capture the [[Legendary beasts]], while in [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia|the sequel]], he allows the player to re-capture {{p|Darkrai}}. In [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]], [[Nema]] allows the player to re-battle several Boss Pokémon on a model of [[Dolce Island]] via the use of her "Many Times Any Time Capture Machine".

==In the anime==
With the exception of the [[Orange League]], {{Ash}} has had rematches with least one Gym Leader, [[Frontier Brain]], or [[Island Kahuna]] in each leg of his {{pkmn|journey}}. It is noted that the list does not list any match-up which could not be defined as a battle.

==Trivia==
* [[Giovanni]] and [[Opal]] are the only in-game Gym Leaders that cannot be rematched an indefinite amount of times. However, in Giovanni's case, he can be battled multiple times via an event at [[Tohjo Falls]], if the player has multiple {{p|Celebi}}, as well as at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]]. [[Koga]], the other former Kanto Gym Leader, has been able to be rematched indefinitely since Generation II, where he was an [[Elite Four]] member, as well as in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].

Trio master

2020-07-19T15:09:35Z

Suic12-: Removing the new regis for now, see talk

{{discussdelete|it is fanon, full of speculation and therefore does not belong in the mainspace}}
{{unknown name}}
{{fan speculation}}
'''Trio master''' is a fan term referring to a Pokémon that, in some way, oversees a [[Legendary trio]] of Pokémon.

The trio master and the trio itself may relate in different ways. For example, {{p|Lugia}} is the trio master of the [[Legendary birds]]; it is the only one who can quell their fighting when [[Lawrence III]] captures one of them in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.

Sometimes, a trio master can be related to only two members of the Legendary trio, serving as its '''internal master'''; for example, {{p|Landorus}} is the internal master of the [[Forces of Nature]]—it punished {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}} for bringing mass destruction with their {{m|thunder}} and {{m|hurricane|wind storms}}.

==Catching trio masters==
In the {{pkmn|games}}, the trio master sometimes will require that the members of its Legendary trio be caught beforehand. There has been other ways from which the trio master is referred to as such though.

===Pokémon Crystal===
In {{v2|Crystal}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}} cannot be caught until all three of the [[Legendary beasts]] have been caught in the same game.

===Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum===
In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, {{p|Regigigas}} will not awaken unless the {{player}} has the [[Legendary titans]] in their party. Conversely, an [[List of local English event Pokémon distributions in Generation IV#Toys "R" Us Regigigas|event Regigigas]] unlocks the Legendary titans in Platinum.

===Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver===
In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, {{p|Rayquaza}} is only obtainable after both {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} have been obtained in the same game, which requires trading.

===Pokémon Black and White===
In {{2v2|Black|White}}, {{p|Landorus}} is only obtainable after both {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}} have been obtained in the same game, which also requires trading.

===Pokémon Black 2 and White 2===
In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, Regigigas will not awaken unless the player brings the titans to its resting place, [[Twist Mountain]].

===Pokémon X and Y===
In {{pkmn|X and Y}}, the name of [[Sea Spirit's Den|the cave]] where the Legendary birds retreat after being encountered 10 times roaming in [[Kalos]], alludes to Lugia.

===Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire===
In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, {{p|Regigigas}} can be encountered in the [[Island Cave]] if the player has {{p|Regice}}, {{p|Registeel}}, and {{p|Regirock}} in their party.

{{p|Landorus}} can only be encountered while [[Soaring in the sky|Soaring]] if the player has both {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}} in the player's party.

===Pokémon Sword and Shield===
In {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}}, two new Legendary titans, {{p|Regieleki}} and {{p|Regidrago}}, were introduced in the [[Crown Tundra]]. It's still unknown what is their relation to Regice, Registeel, Regirock, and Regigigas.

==Other references to trio masters==
* In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], the [[Legendary birds]] must all be befriended and must create the [[Vortex Stone]] before the player can enter [[Silver Trench|Lugia's dungeon]], and before encountering Ho-Oh, the three [[Legendary beasts]] must contribute their power to create the [[Rainbow Wing]].
* In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], [[Aegis Cave]] has four bosses: Regirock, Regice, Registeel and Regigigas. The titans must be beaten first before Regigigas can be challenged at the end of the cave.
* In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], {{p|Ho-Oh}} cannot be encountered unless the player has captured and purified all the Shadow Pokémon, which includes the Legendary beasts, as one of the two requirements.
* In {{Pokémon XD}}, the Legendary birds are encountered after the player encounters Shadow Lugia.
* In [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], the player needs to befriend all the Pokémon in the regional Browser, which includes the Legendary titans, to battle Regigigas. The titans themselves are also required in order to open the door to its domain.
* In [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]], the player needs to befriend all 300 Pokémon in the regional Browser, which includes the three Legendary birds, to battle Lugia.

'''Kecleon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カクレオン''' ''Kakureon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

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

Kecleon, along with {{p|Wailmer}} and {{p|Azurill}}, was one of the first {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} revealed, in early March 2001.

==Biology==
[[File:Invisible Kecleon.png|250px|left|thumb|An invisible Kecleon]]
Kecleon is a bipedal, reptilian Pokémon that is usually green. On either sides of its head are yellow frills, which are connected by lines to its yellow lips and rings around its eyes. There are small ridges on its shoulders and a red zigzag stripe around its midsection. The hands and feet have three short digits each, and it has yellow soles. It also has a long skinny tail that is usually curled tightly in a spiral.

Kecleon is able to change the colors of its body at will, and is known for frequently using this ability to camouflage itself. However, it is unable to change the color of its red stripe. Its color also changes based on its mood and health, darkening in color with better health. By using camouflage to appear almost invisible, it can sneak up on prey and ensnare it with its long pink tongue. If unnoticed for too long though, it pouts and may never reveal itself. A purplish variant has been seen in [[EP205|the anime]] and the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]; whether this is an example of it changing color or simply a different kind of Kecleon is unknown. This Pokémon lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|tropical and temperate forests}}.

Kecleon must be knocked over and then hit with the ball ten times in two minutes to win the round.

Due to its Abilities, this Pokémon will change its type throughout the battle, thus changing its weaknesses. For instance, if hit by (with Color Change), or after using (with Protean) a Fighting-type move, it will become more vulnerable to a Psychic-type attack and more resistant to a Dark-type attack if either is used next.

==Trivia==
* Kecleon is the hardest Pokémon to recruit in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], with a base recruit rate of -33.9%. It can only be recruited if the {{player}} is level 90 or higher, and if they are holding a [[Recruitment items|Friend Bow]]. Even after all this, Kecleon's recruit rate is only 0.1%. Requirements changed in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]]; the player must instead be at level 99, while holding a [[Golden Mask]] with the "Fast Friend" [[IQ]] skill; these requirements come in conjunction with its base recruit rate decreasing to -49.5%.
* The [[Pokémon Colosseum beta#Unused Shadow Pokémon e-mails|internal files]] for [[Pokémon Colosseum]] lists Kecleon as being meant to be a [[Shadow Pokémon]] multiple times.

===Origin===
Kecleon is based on a {{wp|chameleon}}, most likely the {{wp|veiled chameleon}}.

====Name origin====
Kecleon and Kakureon may be a combination of 隠れる ''kakureru'' (to hide) and ''{{wp|chameleon}}''.

Talk:Urshifu (Pokémon)

2020-07-17T12:53:02Z

Suic12-: New sections go at the bottom, and remember to sign your comments

== Does anybody else think Gigantamax Urshifu was inspired by wrathful deities? ==

A wrathful deity is a ferocious defender of Buddhism who often has a very demonic appearance. This form is said to be taken by the bodhisattvas in the Underworld to judge and punish the wicked.

The reason I bring this up is because the official site describes Gigantamax Urshifu Single Strike Style as the embodiment of rage, and a divine emissary which expels evil spirits with its sheer anger, and it also says that Gigantamax Urshifu Rapid Strike Style stares at people and Pokémon so intensely they feel their souls being examined on a very personal level, while some actually feel as if they have been cleansed of the taint left behind by evil spirits

--[[User:Adelon|Adelon]] ([[User talk:Adelon|talk]]) 15:54, 10 January 2020 (UTC)
:::That does seem possible and that evil spirits might be possibly involved in story,--[[User:Jacob9594|Jacob Kogan]] ([[User talk:Jacob9594|talk]]) 15:56, 10 January 2020 (UTC)

::::::I am not permitted to directly edit this page, but I'd like the above trivia about fierce deities to be added. Is it suitable for the article? On a related topic, somebody added trivia about Urshifu's typing, suggesting it had a connection to the idea of being like water, but I feel the explanation may have to be clarified somewhat. --[[User:Adelon|Adelon]] ([[User talk:Adelon|talk]]) 21:23, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

== Form image ==

The main image should have the two styles side by side like with [[Toxtricity]]. I don't have a program with transparency so I can't edit the file and merge them myself. [[User:Pallukun|Pallukun]] ([[User talk:Pallukun|talk]]) 00:06, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
:Agreed... I have uploaded Urshifu.png on the Archives for this use. --[[User:Celadonkey|celadonk]] ([[User talk:Celadonkey|talk]]) 15:26, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
::I'd agree, but from what I know, the template doesnt currently allow for this to be possible without removing their single strike and rapid strike labels (in fact you'd notice the Toxtricity images don't label their forms either). Either the templates would need to change to make this possible, or they'd be merged without form labels. [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 16:52, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
:::{{p|Basculin}} does it. Admittedly the Gigantamax does mess some things up, with both Toxtricity and Urshifu. Although I don't think it's as much of a problem for Urshifu since both forms have the same ability. --[[User:Celadonkey|celadonk]] ([[User talk:Celadonkey|talk]]) 17:14, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
::::Ah true. In that case, I guess Basculin could be followed, placing short descriptions of the appearances of the different forms in the header so a user can tell which is which (for both Toxtricity and Urshifu). [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 17:32, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
:::::In the meantime, I've made a potential update to the Pokemon Infobox template that would account for this. It can be found [[User:Celadonkey/PokemonInfobox|here]].

== Legendary Status ==

Is there an official source that states that Kubfu and Urshifu are legendaries? Because on the Pokémon Home GTS, if you tell it to filter out the results of people asking for Legendary and Mythical Pokémon, people asking for Kubfu or Urshifu are still shown, which seems to imply that they aren't Legendary Pokémon. [[User:Arqade|Arqade]] ([[User talk:Arqade|talk]]) 02:19, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

The Pokemon expansion Pass Trailer during Pokemon Direct established it was a Legendary months ago back in January. Even the official Sword and Shield Website mentions this.--[[User:Jacob9594|Jacob9594 ]] ([[User talk:Jacob9594|talk]]) 02:23, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

== Crediting Bruce Lee for martial arts referencing water ==

'Rapid Strike Style's Water typing may be a reference to the "flow like water" quote by famous actor and martial artist Bruce Lee.'

I don't think this makes sense. Water is commonly referenced in East Asian martial arts. It is part of both 5 elemental systems used in East Asian cultures, as well as the 8 trigrams system. So it doesn't seem valid to credit Bruce Lee for inspiration, even in the slightest, not without proof to show a leaning that makes sense as opposed to just going by general martial arts knowledge/understanding. If the quote kind of explained both the Dark- and Water-typing, I would be more inclined to find it believable on its own.

Therefore, I recommend taking this line out entirely. It's just claiming something specific when all signs point to something more generic right now.

== Contributing to the Biology section of Urshifu ==

Was pointed to this Talk topic by Chosen. I've written out an appearance description with references provided below. Hopefully this can become a good descriptive. Feel free to add on if you want.

----

[ Urshifu is a large bipedal Pokémon resembling a humanoid Asian Black Bear with a Wushu motif. It has a muscular build with long legs and long arms with large paws and claws for striking. Its body and head are covered in gray, black, and white fur, minus the yellow muzzle. The front of Urshifu's pelt slightly resembles a traditional frog buttoned (also known as braid buttoned) Kung Fu/Tai Chi uniform used for Wushu and general relaxation by Chinese elders whilst the hanging off ends on both front and back might take inspiration from Shaolin uniforms. The fur on top of Single Strike and Rapid Strike form's head and legs will go up or down depending on the form. The spikier fur on the heads of both Single Strike and Rapid Strike form flare up or out respectively into a flowing headband with the only consistency between forms being the colors: white on top, black on bottom. The design of the back of Urshifu's hands and knuckles which are white in color over black fur might be a potential reference to the gloves found in mixed martial arts and sometimes in Wushu fighting; Urshifu's feet also share the white knuckles which may be a reference to kick boxing, another style of Wushu martial arts.

Both forms Urshifu take unique stances based on a mixture real styles of martial arts:

Single Strike's stance is based on a mixture of Tiger style and Leopard style, styles based on precise, strong and direct strikes which can give meaning to Single Strike's unique move, Wicked Blow; which always lands in a critical hit and described to be a singular, strong punch and references both Leopard style's way of looking to take down opponents as swiftly as it can and Tiger style's direct attack with overwhelming strength and power.

Rapid Strike's stance is based on a mixture of Crane style and Seven Star Mantis style, styles based around flowing movements, balance, dodging, deflecting, and tactile overwhelming blows, just like Rapid Strike and its signature move, Surging Strikes; which is given a further nod to the movements given and flowing, flurrying strikes delivered in the Japanese name: Streaming Strikes. ]

----

References used are Gnoggin (cross-referenced for accuracy), extensive searches of martial arts outfits and styles (Wikipedia included), and staring at Urshifu in-game for an unhealthy amount of hours. {{unsigned|Firith}}
:It a nice start but its missing the Describing the Gigantamax Urshifu's appearance. Plus there too much references in the description of Urshifu, other than that a lot of potential references to use.--[[User:Jacob9594|Jacob9594 ]] ([[User talk:Jacob9594|talk]]) 04:01, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

== Evolution method ==

It's slightly inaccurate to say Kubfu evolves based on which Tower it's trained in. It's really just based on which Scroll it sees. A Kubfu trained in Tower of Darkness can be traded into another game that unlocked Tower of Waters and evolve into Rapid Strike, and vice versa. And in fact, in each save-file, only one Kubfu can be "trained". Then the Tower empties out, and if you ever get another Kubfu, all you have to do is walk to the top floor and interact with the Scroll.

Isn't Arceus the master of Trio masters?--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 16:31, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
:All we know is it's the master of the lake trio. Ho-Oh, Lugia, and Regigigas... well, they actually seem to be overlords of sky, sea, and land. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 16:45, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

i thought Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza were the overlords of the land, sea, and sky. I kind of pictured Ho-Oh and Lugia as guardians. and i'm not even sure what to think of Regigigas as of yet. [[User:InuMimi|InuMimi]] 12:39, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Remember that while Kyogre expanded the seas, Groudon expanded the continents, and Rayquaza brought neutral ground (and not ground as in Groudon, but you get what I mean) with the sky, they are very much beings of these domains, and have never been shown to watch over the effects of the domains they represent. Rayquaza may keep the balance between Kyogre and Groudon, but it seems to simply be a leader of the Sky World, rather than its Guardian. The Hebrew mythological/legendary/Biblical creatures known as Behemoth, Leviathan, and Ziz are seen as the Great Beasts of the Earth, Sea, and Sky (respectively), but not as the Guardians of these domains. They simply are the Greatest of the inhabitants of these domains. I'm not saying that Pokémon has to adhere to the stories that its Legendaries are based on, but they do provide a hint. Now, granted, Kyogre and Groudon's information in the version they do not appear in is important in that is states that Kyogre brought the relief of rain to those caught in drought, and Groudon brought and end to the monsoon-like rains that tormented various regions. But these are born from aspects of their nature - the ability to expand the seas or earth with Drizzle and Drought respectively. This would seem to state that Kyogre is actually the guardian of the Earth - as it brought balance back to regions suffering drought, the negative aspects of Groudon - and that Groudon is the guardian of the Seas, for precisely the equal and opposite reasons. Of course, they are not the guardians of each others' domains, though they do keep each other in check somewhat, when they're not sleeping, that is. And when they are both awake - well it seemed that they actually didn't want to fight each other in the games at least, and that it was the Orbs that drove them out of control. The citizens of Sootopolis in Emerald state that the two look like they actually don't want to be fighting each other, as if they are being forced to by the Red and Blue Orbs (which may or may not be man-made). And Rayquaza has been seen to keep them in check when this does happen (though somehow Lance and Ash and co. were able to stop them without Rayquaza in the anime). But even Rayquaza has been seen as very defensive of its area - in Movie 7 it attacked Deoxys on sight simply because Deoxys entered it's domain. That's more like an attack dog than a guardian trying to keep the balance of the skies.

Lugia has shown multiple times that if it existed in the sky, it would cause catastrophic events that could effect the entire world, but by maintaining its powers beneath the sea it is able to keep the balance of the world's water, and therefore the source of life (as seen in a traditional Buddhist sense, as well as in, say, Movies 1, 2, 4, 5, and 9). Ho-oh has been seen as the maker of Rainbows and the being that ends the storms that could cause pain and suffering to the world, so it is the guardian of the Sky World. Ironically, the Legendary Birds and their actions affect the sea and are governed by Lugia, while the Legendary beasts are governed by Ho-oh.

The Regi trio seem to have been made by Man, the class of beings often associated with the Earth, as bone and muscle and flesh are very Earthy substances. But Regigigas has been known as the being that pulled the Continents together by towing them with ropes, and it is also seen in Movie 11 as providing its phenomenal strength and its mastery over the great beasts that walk the Earth (here being Mammoswine) to prevent catastrophes such as that of the Glacidia glacier moving and causing much devastation across the Earth. Regigigas is perhaps the most Deus ex Machina a Pokémon movie character could get (though Kyogre in Movie 9 comes close), as he basically solves the final crisis of the movie, when Ash and co. couldn't. Regigigas' role of herding Megafauna is very Earth-based as well - see the Ground egg group, and it's role with Mammals (or HSOWA). Mammals almost define Earth and its denizens, though they certainly are not the only ones; but their association with humans and agriculture and also with the ancient Megafauna that dominated this world in the early Cenozoic are definitely indications that Regigigas is like a human of the ancient world, and how humans see themselves as the Stewards of Earth (or at least should...).

So my point here is that while Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza represent the elemental energies that empower the three domains of Earth, Sea, and Sky, respectively, it is Regigigas, Lugia, and Ho-oh (again respectively) that are the stewards of these domains. Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza represent a trio (though a statistically imbalanced trio as Rayquaza is stronger than the other two), but one without a Trio Master because they keep each other in-balance ability-wise (and if Kyogre has some possible connection with "the Beast of the Sea", than it may be that the Trio Masters each keep the Weather Trio member in their domain balanced as well, though that's getting more into speculation). Regigigas, Lugia, and Ho-oh are Trio Masters because of their Pokédex and series lore about their roles, which connect them with both the Trios they control and their domains of Land, Sea, and Sky. The association with Lugia and the Moon and Ho-oh and the Sun - that's another story that has absolutely no basis save the opening screens of Silver and Gold versions.

Arceus has yet to have been shown as the Master of Trio Masters, as has he yet to have been shown as the Master of the Dragon Trio (though this will probably be revealed next summer with Movie 12). So until then, Arceus remains as the Trio Master of the Lake Trio, only. But having created the entire world and its planes, I would assume he could be considered the master of the Weather Trio, the Dragon Trio, as well as relegating the Beast Trio, Bird Trio, and Regi Trio to Ho-oh, Lugia, and Regigigas. That, however, is speculation for now. Thank you for your time. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 03:53, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

== Arceus ==

Isn't he the trio master of the dragons as well.We know for sure he created Dialga and Palkia (and he probably created Giratina to start the reverse world but that is just speculation) which is like how Ho-oh created the Beasts and Ho-oh is the beast master so Arceus should be noted as the Dragon Trio Master or as Master of Dialga and Palkia.
[[User:Sailor Earth|Sailor Earth]] 16:22, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

True, but if he's only the master of Dialga and Palkia, then he's not a Trio Master, just a Duo Master, so to speak.

:Please add your sig with the four tildes after you comment. Arceus is almost certainly the Trio Master of the Dragon Trio as well; however, his relationship with Giratina is still not yet confirmed, while it's been established that he either created Dialga and Palkia or else they are warring aspects of himself (sorry for using the masculine noun-forms). Until Movie 12 comes out, we probably won't have an answer to that, so for now, Arceus remains only as the Trio Master of the Lake Trio.

:::I agree with Maxim here. The article is inconsistent and attempts to reveal patterns that don’t exist. Lugia definitely isn’t the master of the birds in the games, for example, and Ho‐oh is not the master of the beasts in the anime (AFAIK; bear in mind that I haven’t watched the show in years).

== Real History ==

I'm from Portugal and when they distributed Arceus for Diamond, Pearl and Platinum versions they gave me a booklet telling the history. I quote:

''Arceus is regarded as the Pokémon God, the creator of the Pokémon universe''.

''This is a legendary Pokémon, Alpha species and normal type. ''Though, if it have some elemental plates it can be transformed in one of 17 types of Pokémon.'' This is its powerful multi-type ability.''

''The story goes that Arceus was born from an egg in chaos even before the outbreak of the cosmos.''

''Arceus began creating Pokémon to put everything in place. The first thing he did was to create Mew to take account of the universe, this one and Arceus are the Pokémon that accompanied the formation process of the cosmos.''

''Then he had to create Shaymin so that nature arise and to maintain balance. Arceus created Dialga, which in turn gave rise to time, and Palkia, which led to the space. Giratina created to control the death and, if necessary, act as mediator between Dialga and Palkia.''

''After that, it created Jirachi that put the stars on firmament. Once created light, thanks to Jirachi, immediatly Darkrai could be seen in Arceus' shadow. Arceus thought to give a mystic touch to the universe and created Cresselia, the first Pokémon with feelings. This created the moon and, thanks to the feelings, wanted some help and company, so it created the legendary trio formed by Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf and later the Clefairy. This legendary trio was later charged with providing living beings with feelings, like emotion, knowledge and will, basic features that represent each.
'''Welcome to the Pokémon Universe.'''''

That means Arceus created Mew, Shaymin, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Jirachi and Cresselia. Cresselia created Clefairy, Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf. Darkrai was created by Arceus' shadow.

For people who knows portuguese:

''Arceus é considerado como o Pokémon Deus, criador do universo Pokémon.''

''Trata-se de um Pokémon lendário, da especie Alpha e de tipo Normal. No entanto, se possuir algumas das elemental plates pode transformar-se num dos 17 tipos de Pokémon. esta é a sua poderosa capacidade multi-tipo.''

''Reza a história de que Arceus nasceu de um ovo imerso no caos ainda antes de eclodir o cosmos.''

''Arceus começou a criar Pokémon para colocar tudo no seu lugar. A primeira coisa que fez foi criar Mew para que tomassse conta do universo, pelo que este último e Arceus são os Pokémon que acompanharam o processo de formação do cosmos.''

''Depois teve de criar Shaymin para que a natureza surgisse e para manter o equilibrio. Arceus criou Dialga, que por sua vez deu origem ao tempo, e Palkia, que deu origem ao espaço. Criou Giratina para que controlasse a morte e, se necessário, agisse como mediador entre Dialga e Palkia.''

''Posteriormente criou Jirachi que colocou as estrelas no firmamento. Uma vez criada a luz, graças a Jirachi, imediatamente foi possível ver Darkrai na sombra de Arceus. Arceus pensou dar ao universo um toque místico pelo que criou Cresselia, o primeiro Pokémon com sentimentos. Este criou a lua e, graças aos seu sentimentos, desejou ter ajuda e companhia, pelo que criou o trio lendário formado por Uxie, Mesprit e Azelf e posteriormente os Clefairy, este trio lendário ficou encarregue de mais tarde dotar os seres vivos de sentimentos, como a emoção, a sabedoria e a vontade, cracterísticas básicas que representam cada um dele.''

Probably

the only possible explanation is that nintendo wanted to release this as a surprise goodie to stir things up along with the figures, so they cancelled it in all over world but forgot potugal, so its a company mistake, although that thing revealed alot such as creation of darkrai, one can see the two having some slight resemblance only by the shape of the head (somewhat), and thus arceus and darkrai are somewhat of a duo, somewhat, and some what of a trio if a crescelia is considered, and if so this is the first time that a trio master is part of a trio, but i'm still sceptical, didnt anybody else get such a booklet in portugal??? {{unsigned|Nobody777}}

Here is my quote from the Musketeer's page: "If, as we have noted, Keldeo is not truly part of the trio, and it is (semi) far apart from the others in the Pokedex, wouldn't Keldeo be qualified for Trio Master?

== Kyurem ==

Seems to me it's probably meant to be the trio master, consider: It's the "Boundary pokemon," probably meaning the one who maintains balance between Reshiram and Zekrom and apparently the game creators made it the one that could use {{m|Ice Burn|Cold Flare}} and {{m|Freeze Shock|Freeze Bolt}} (though apparently not officially), moves containing both types of the other two, they can't.

Since this new movie is featuring Kyurem and the musketeer Pokemon, is it possible that Kyurem is their master? Or is it to early to tell?

== duo+master=/=trio ==

Doesn't "trio" imply three equal parts?
For example I find it silly that it's the "weather trio" when 2 of them cause weather, and the stronger one neutralizes it (not to mention the dozen other ways Rayquaza is superior to them, including a more intelligent guardian-like role, instead of wreaking havoc). A weather-duo with an anti-weather-guardian would be the right direction. Same for the cloud demons. And the musketeers; if anything Cobalion is at least part of the trio, Keldeo the adoptee is the one whos place in it is in the air for now. But even then, Cobalion being their master, based on its vague role in the family, with nothing else that would make it stick out in any way (unlike Keldeo) is too much. They don't have a master, just a student. Also the word master feels so misleading (it's not like they own or control each other), but.. there is no fitting word for meaningless obvious connections between legendaries that I know of.

I also want to note that the pokemon fanbase is exaggerating the creation myths/legends part of legendary pokemon when it comes to this kind of speculation (which may be what GF were aiming for though XD). The only things that really presents these creatures as supernatural beings with godlike powers, are their myths. The facts are simply that pokemon exist, who are stronger than usual and have some neat abilities (affecting the weather, manipulating dimensions a bit). They don't even show any sign of near human-like intelligence, actually they can happen to get caught into pokeballs by strong trainers and battle for them like usual (unless one considered anime canon, but its kind of hard to take serious when they disregard lots of things from the games and make up just as much own crap as they go along). Think of it that way; in the old times, some people witnessed a legendary like Groudon or Arceus, saw water evaporating wherever it went/saw it call a bunch of Unowns to make an egg or two fall out of the sky, and as they passed the info on, it turned into myth starring Groudon as the landmass god or Arceus as the creator of the universe. Same for the rest. They didn't create anything, they're just very rare/gone/hidden and best at manipulating specific things. Thanks for anyone who actually reads this, just had to vent it somewhere already Dx --[[User:Saiph charon|Saiph charon]] 15:14, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

:: Well alright, but what makes the difference between the Regis being a trio with master instead of being a quartet, if not that the three share more similarities between each other than with Regigigas? If the Regis aren't a quartet then Groudon and Kyogre are a duo with a master/guardian (as they have so many similarities while Rayquaza sticks out as superior on multiple levels, even design-wise), same for the Kami. Also at the moment we have no idea what will become of Kyurem and how it really relates to the other 2, but in the current state they're not a trio by that logic (even if Kyurem gets buffed up, itd be a Rayquaza situation in the end).--[[User:Saiph charon|Saiph charon]] 11:03, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:::Rayquaza doesn't really stick out from Groudon and Kyogre to me. They all have something to do with weather (neutralizing weather still involves weather), have similar markings, their movesets are even slightly similar. I can see how the Regis and Regigigas could be a quartet, except that Regigigas came out in a different generation. I feel like that sets it farther apart from the other Regis than Rayquaza is from Groudon and Kyogre. Plus, I find that the reference to Regigigas creating the Regi trio also sets it apart. If it created them, shouldn't it be their master and not part of their group? Like Ho-oh and the Legendary Beasts. These are just my opinions, though.

It was only with Team Plasma's intervention that it was able to, as otherwise it would not have had the DNA Splicers necessary for that to occur, nor the power to track down Reshiram/Zekrom. Black Kyurem and White Kyurem are more "proof" of Ghetsis (and later the player character) ruling over Reshiram/Zekrom than Kyurem doing so.

== Meloetta the Kami Trio's Master ==

We've placed Landorus as the Kami Trio's in house Trio master...but wouldn't Meloetta also fit the bill since it controlled their transformation in the anime, and got them back under control after they went berserk.

I know its just in the anime, but we consider Lugia the bird trio's master and that was in a movie.

'''Evidence:''' Meloetta, like the Kami trio, also has a form change.

Meloetta is needed, at least in the anime, to help the Trio achieve their Therian Forme.

When all three went berserk, it was Meloetta who calmed them, and then changed them back to their Incarnate forme.

The evidence of Meloetta being the true Trio master is piling up. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 22:25, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

But the game doesn't have enough evidence to support that. Plus, they dont share similarities in origin. However, If you look at the base stats, Meloetta does have a base stat equivalent to landorus. However, I dont think there are very concrete evidence that support this. --[[User:Nobody777|Nobody777]] ([[User talk:Nobody777|talk]]) 03:45, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

:: We're not going by the games here; if we were going by the games then Lugia would be completely ousted as the Trio master for the legendary birds since the games have no evidence for it. Lugia's title was granted because of the movie a power of one, just as Meloetta's title should be granted [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 21:01, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

I really think this should be discussed. Meloetta, albeit in the anime only, is definitely fitting for the role. Also as I've mentioned, Lugia got its title from a movie which isn't much different than the anime. Meloetta is needed to call upon the trio to the ruins, transform them into their Therian forms, control them, calm them and turn them back to their Incarnate forms. It also (as pointed out by Nobody777) has the same stat total with other similarities such as gaining atk in their alternate forms.

:This will not be discused, because Trio Masters are dictated by the games' canon. Since it's established in the games that Landorus is the Trio Master, there is no discussion in that regard. In the case of Lugia, there's no mention wether if it is or not, hence, another continuity's canon had to be adopted, since its role in the movie was fitting that of a Master. If the games said otherwise, it would be removed of this list. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 09:55, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

== Suggested merge ==

This is a fan term for a phenomenon that's only loosely present in the games, and no explicit connection/comparison between trio masters has (to my knowledge) ever been made in canon, suggesting to me that there is not a pressing need for them to be grouped together in the mainspace. Furthermore, virtually every instance of the subject matter itself is pretty debatable:
* Lugia is a trio master only in the anime
* Ho-Oh is a trio master only in the games
* Rayquaza and Landorus (and Kyurem, if you subscribe to that theory, which is mentioned in Trivia but not in the main body of the page) are already members of their trios, making them not quite fit the pattern
* Regigigas and Arceus are said to have created the trios they're supposedly "trio master" of, but there's otherwise no indication they actually have any sway over them the way other trio masters are supposed to
* The Swords of Justice are properly a quartet, not a trio, and if we're going to single any of them out, it should really be Keldeo since it's the one that ''canon actually does single out as different from the others'' (but more importantly, the Swords canonically don't fit the trio-and-master dynamic to begin with, so they shouldn't be here at all even if the page continues to exist)
So yeah, basically, I don't believe there's any actual canonical justification for this to be a mainspace page. I think we should do what we did with Electric rodents: pare it down to the essentials and use that to expand its section on [[Appendix:Fan terminology]].

:Months ago I brought up the issue for Landorus being given the title despite in the anime Meloetta having actual sway over how they take their other forms and the only response was a juvenile argument backed by no real evidence, and the Lugia evidence manipulated to fit their POV.

:I'm actually more in favor of abolishing this entire article, since it serves no real purpose and is nothing but speculation brought forth through fan head cannon and happenstance evidence weaker than an ounce of instant coffee in a water cooler.

::I agree that this article/concept is too much of fanon. However, like "electric rodents", the concept of a "trio master" is popular enough in fanon that we'll have to document it somehow, but I don't think this quite warrants its own page either. I personally support a merge to the [[Appendix:Fan terminology]], this is the kind of thing that article is for. ''Popular'' fanon should be documented, but not treated like it's an official thing.

== Other 'references' ==

I'm a little unsure about some of the things that appear in the {{DL|Trio master|other references to trio masters}} section. To me, some of them really don't seem like references at all, namely having to purify all of the Shadow Pokémon in Colosseum and having to befriend all 300 Pokémon in the Oblivia Browser in Guardian signs in order to encounter Ho-oh and Lugia, respectively. Yes, in each of these cases the befriending of a legendary trio is required to meet their master, but befriending the trio ''specifically'' is not. The three legendary birds are indeed needed to encounter Lugia in Guardian Signs, but so are 297 other Pokémon. That doesn't seem like much of a reference to me. It's not even like they're the only legendary trio that appear in the Oblivia Browser anyway. This also applies to the legendary golems in Shadows of Almia. I think that these three points should be removed from the page. [[User:Dannyboy601|Dannyboy601]] ([[User talk:Dannyboy601|talk]]) 16:34, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

== Why does this exist? ==

Why has this fanfiction page returned to dominance? It makes no sense to have this on every legendary page and only even begins to make sense by combining sources from difference canon. Lugia is not a "trio master" in the games and it's not a term that's ever even uttered in the anime or manga, any details that this page tells us can be told on the appropriate section of each Pokemons page (such as Lugias relation to the legendary birds in the anime). This is an eyesore on an otherwise factual and accurate wiki and needs to be mass deleted.[[User:Five|Five]] ([[User talk:Five|talk]]) 09:14, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
:I fully agree, but as far as I'm aware this has been brought up before and never gained much traction.

::I disagree, this page is useful in describing a recurring relationship between legendary Pokémon in the games. While I agree that Lugia's inclusion is perhaps questionable, the others are clearly trio masters. Ho-oh resurrected the dogs, regigagas is clearly the master of the regis, arceus created the creation and lake trio, Rayquaza and Landorus are clearly internal leaders. It's clear that whenever there's a trio, there's usually a clear external or internal leader/master/overseer (whatever you want to call them).

:::::Fanon =/= fandom. The vast majority of those pages are documenting the Pokémon fandom in real life and/or on the Internet. This page (and a small handful of pages on that list, like [[HM slave]]) is instead trying to describe something in the games that is entirely inferred or invented by fans.

:::::Wiki's should always be factual, preferably with supporting evidence. My problem is that many articles on here now, this trio master stuff specifically, relies far too heavily on assumptions, theories and fan ideas, most of which only make sense if you assume anime rules and lore apply to the games, which is something we can say for 100% certainty is not the case. I can understand the argument that fanon has its place here, but it shouldn't be so prominent in the description for every single legendary. It's misleading, if not completely incorrect.[[User:Five|Five]] ([[User talk:Five|talk]]) 09:32, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

:I'm really not sure you can call this "fanon". In fact, "fandom" really is more accurate. The only thing that's really not canon is the name "trio master", but that's what the unknown name template is for (and look just how many times it's used on this site). Each "master's" status over the respective trio are supported by canon. This relation between one more powerful Pokémon and a trio (or two others, thus creating a trio) isn't exactly disputable. It's mentioned time and time again, in game after game. [[User:Schiffy|I don't even give a Schif]] ([[User talk:Schiffy|Talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Schiffy|Contribs]]) 22:04, 26 July 2016 (UTC)

== Rather than deleting this page, here's my take... ==

I think this page is necessary, and it already makes it clear that "trio master" is a fan term and not particularly elucidated by the games in every instance. While it can be argued Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Arceus being "trio masters" is fanon due to the fact that they only have very loose, very roundabout in-game associations with their respective trios, it is an established fact that Rayquaza is the master of the weather trio, Regigigas is the master of the titans, and Landorus is the master of the Forces of Nature. Each one of those either keeps the other members of its trio in check or created the members of its trio. Lugia on the other hand was only referenced in the game canon as tied to the legendary birds via Sea Spirit's Den, and otherwise, very much unrelated. Ho-Oh has absolutely nothing to do with the legendary beasts other than reviving them. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the three don't worship it, the three don't follow its commands, nor does anyone make a clear connection between the four. Arceus was the creator of the lake guardians and creation trio, but does that necessarily mean it itself is part of those trios? Like the prior examples, it is otherwise a standalone Pokemon with no common design/type/name themes. I think this page simply needs to be reworked rather than deleting it or considering it in its entirety as fanon.

== The page should stay... ==

I think that the page should stay, but it's only a personal opinion.

== Are legendary pokemon mythos not goofy speculations? ==

From the beginning, Legendaries were for fun and challenge. The birds were hard to find, hard to catch. Should these beings not have higher authorities within their worlds? The idea of Mythical Pokémon being seperate from legendaries is mostly fan-founded as well! This page has a place, if only under meta or fandom.

We don't know if they make a quintet with the previous trio, or a new trio with Regigigas, or whatever. The sensible thing to do, I think, would be keeping the page as it was before, without the new regis, with maybe a note about them saying their relation with the group is still unknown.
:::::To Golden Trainer, it's not unusual to have to wait for a response in the talk pages here.

'''Yanma''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヤンヤンマ''' ''Yanyanma'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Yanmega}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Ancient Power}}.

==Biology==
Yanma is a large, red dragonfly Pokémon. Compared to its long, thin abdomen, its thorax is short and wide. It has three pairs of two-toed legs and two pairs of wings with red bands on them. A bright green mask marking covers most of its face, and it has two spikes on top of its head. Its blue eyes can see all around its body allowing it to have a high evasiveness. The end of Yanma's tail has two flat extensions from the sides and two gray spikes in the center.

Yanma is a skillful flier. It can make sudden stops, turn in midair and hover in place by flapping its wings at a high speed. It can also generate shock waves capable of breaking glass by flapping its wings very fast. Yanma is often found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|wooded and swampy areas}}. It hunts insects for food, using its eyesight to spot and its flight abilities to pursue prey. Yanma is also territorial, flitting around to guard its territory.

In ''[[DP080|The Thief That Keeps on Thieving!]]'', [[Tyler]] was about to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a Yanma that his {{p|Piplup}} had weakened when the [[Team Rocket trio]] showed up and [[Jessie]] caught her instead. They sent her to {{an|Giovanni}}; however, [[Team Rocket]] already had obtained a large number of Yanma, and so Giovanni returned her to them. When Jessie used Yanma in {{pkmn|battle}}, she used {{m|Ancient Power}} and evolved into a Yanmega.

====Other====
In ''[[EP177|Wings n' Things]]'', [[Zachary Evans]] owns a Yanma. Unable to control its wings' sonic abilities, it was breaking all glass in town, so Zachary reluctantly abandoned it.

In ''[[AG014|All in a Day's Wurmple]]'', [[Forrester Franklin]]'s Yanma battled {{Ash}} alongside {{p|Ariados}} in a [[Double Battle]], with the two going up against {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Treecko}}. After a long battle, Ash emerged victorious.

In ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]'', a Yanma competed in the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]]. It fought alongside a {{p|Bagon}} against [[Brock's Sudowoodo]] and [[Holly]]'s {{p|Wingull}}, but they were defeated.

==Trivia==
* Yanma shares the same base {{stat|Speed}} stat with its evolved form.
* In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], despite being able to learn {{m|Leech Life}} through breeding, Yanma cannot learn it via [[TM28]]. Its evolved form can, however.

===Origin===
Yanma seems to be based on a {{wp|dragonfly}}, possibly the {{wp|banded darter (dragonfly)|banded darter}}. Because of its size and weight, it might have been inspired by prehistoric ancestors to modern dragonflies and {{wp|Damselfly|damselflies}} in the ''{{wp|Meganeura}}'' genus, commonly referred to as "griffinflies".

====Name origin====
Yanma and Yanyanma derive from 蜻蜓 ''yanma'' (large dragonfly).

:'''''HP''' and '''Hit Points''' redirect here. For the move commonly referred to in competitive battling as "HP", see {{m|Hidden Power}}. For the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] set commonly abbreviated as "HP," see {{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}. For HP in the Trading Card Game, see [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Hit Points|Glossary of terms]].''
----

A '''statistic''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|能力|のうりょく}}}}''' ''ability''), or '''stat''' for short, is an element which determines certain aspects of {{pkmn|battle}}s in the {{pkmn|games}}. Stats may also refer to the numerical values of each field in regards to individual Pokémon.

In English, stats have been also referred to as '''abilities'''{{sup/1|RBY}} (as seen via NPCs on the fifth floor of the [[Celadon Department Store]]) and '''ratings'''{{sup/2|GSC}} (as seen in {{m|Growth}}'s move description).

==List of stats==
===Permanent stats===
===={{anchor|HP|Hit Points}}====
The '''Hit Points''' (Japanese: '''{{j|ヒットポイント}}''' ''hit points''), or '''HP''' for short in both Japanese and English, determine how much [[damage]] a Pokémon can receive before [[fainting]]. Many other game mechanics, such as [[Pokémon Center]]s, {{m|Substitute}}, [[Leftovers]], and {{m|Pain Split}}, can decrease or restore HP. Lost HP is often not automatically restored at the end of a battle, so Pokémon can enter another battle without their full HP. In [[Pokémon GO]], it is called '''Stamina'''.

It is the most visible of the stats in battle, appearing both graphically (as a bar with a fill colored green, yellow, or red depending on how much HP in percentage is left) and as a current/max amount below the bar. If a Pokémon has more than half of its max HP, its HP bar remains green. If the Pokémon has between one-fifth and half of its HP, the bar will turn yellow (in Generation II, a Pokémon revived to exactly half of their HP will have a green HP bar). If a Pokémon has less than one-fifth of its HP remaining, the bar will turn red and a beeping sound (Generations I-IV), a change of battle music with the beep as a metronome (Generation V), or a series of 4 beeping sounds before fading away (since Generation VI) will notify the player that his or her Pokémon is in danger of [[fainting]]. Before Generation VI, this beeping will continue until the Pokémon is switched out to another Pokémon which has at least one-fifth of its HP, has its HP raised to one-fifth or higher by any means, or faints.

In Generation I, the coloring of the HP bar was determined slightly differently. If the bar's fill was 27 pixels or wider (out of a total end-to-end length of 48 pixels), it would be colored green; if it was between 10 and 26 pixels, it would be colored yellow; and if it was less than 10 pixels wide, it would be colored red. This means the HP bar turns yellow noticeably earlier than in the later games, or at about 56% of the Pokémon's maximum HP.

The HP bar also affects the Pokémon's [[cry]]. Since {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, if a Pokémon's HP bar is green, the player will hear the cry of the Pokémon in its normal sounding rate, but if the Pokémon faints, its cry will be lowered by a whole step. Also, since {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, if the Pokémon has less than half its total HP, its cry will be lowered by a half-step to indicate its weakened state.

====Attack====
The '''Attack stat''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|攻撃能力|こうげきのうりょく}}}}''' ''attack ability''), or informally '''Physical Attack''', partly determines how much damage a Pokémon deals when using a [[physical move]]. For more information on how Attack affects damage, see {{DL|Damage|Damage calculation|Damage → Damage calculation}}.

====Defense====
The '''Defense stat''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|防御能力|ぼうぎょのうりょく}}}}''' ''defense ability''), or informally '''Physical Defense''', partly determines how much damage a Pokémon receives when it is hit with a [[physical move]]. For more information on how Defense affects damage, see {{DL|Damage|Damage calculation|Damage → Damage calculation}}.

====Special====
The '''Special stat''' (Japanese: '''{{j|とくしゅのうりょく}}''' ''special ability'') is a stat that existed only in [[Generation I]].

The Special stat accounted for what is currently known as Special Attack and Special Defense, determining how much damage a Pokémon both receives and deals when [[special move]]s are used. As a result, a Pokémon could not be both strong with and weak against a Special attack, or vice versa, in the same way a Pokémon might have high Attack but low Defense. With [[Generation II]], the Special stat was split into Special Attack and Special Defense, meaning Pokémon could have different [[Base stats|base stat values]] for both, and those stats were both displayed on a Pokémon's stat screen; however, [[individual value]]s and [[effort value]]s remained unsplit, so that there was only a Special individual value and Special effort values, which affected both the Special Attack and Special Defense stats. Furthermore, [[Calcium]] increased both stats. In [[Generation III]], IVs and EVs were finally given both Special Attack and Special Defense values as well, and the Calcium now worked on only Special Attack while the Zinc was introduced for the Special Defense.

=====Special Attack=====
The '''Special Attack stat''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|特攻能力|とくこうのうりょく}}}}''' ''special attack ability''), or '''Sp. Atk''' and '''Spcl. Atk'''{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/ss|Stad2}} for short, partly determines how much damage a Pokémon deals when using a [[special move]]. For more information on how Special Attack affects damage, see {{DL|Damage|Damage calculation|Damage → Damage calculation}}.

=====Special Defense=====
The '''Special Defense stat''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|特防能力|とくぼうのうりょく}}}}''' ''special defense ability''), or '''Sp. Def''' and '''Spcl. Def'''{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/ss|Stad2}} for short, partly determines how much damage a Pokémon receives when it is hit with a [[special move]]. For more information on how Special Defense affects damage, see {{DL|Damage|Damage calculation|Damage → Damage calculation}}.

====Speed====
The '''Speed stat''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|素早さ能力|すばやさのうりょく}}}}''' ''speed ability'') determines the order of Pokémon that can act in battle. If Pokémon are moving with the same [[priority]], Pokémon with higher Speed at the start of any turn will generally make a [[move]] before ones with lower Speed; in the case that two Pokémon have the same Speed, one of them will randomly go first. An in-battle change to a Pokémon's Speed stat originally did not start affecting turn order until the following turn; however, in [[Generation VII]], if [[Mega Evolution]] or [[Ultra Burst]] caused changes to the base speed stat or to an [[Ability]] that affected speed or priority, those changes took effect immediately for the upcoming turn. In [[Generation VIII]], all speed changes take effect immediately; after every individual move, the next Pokémon to move is the fastest Pokémon that hasn't yet made its move that turn.

===In-battle stats===
====Evasion====
The '''evasion rate''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|回避率|かいひりつ}}}}''' ''evasion rate''), or '''evasiveness''', of a Pokémon determines its probability of avoiding other Pokémon's moves. The initial value at the start of any battle is 100%. If a Pokémon's evasiveness is reduced below 100% with a move such as {{m|Sweet Scent}}, other Pokémon will have a better chance of their moves hitting. If evasiveness is increased above 100% with a move such as {{m|Double Team}}, other Pokémon will have a harder time connecting their moves.

====Accuracy====
The '''accuracy rate''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|命中率|めいちゅうりつ}}}}''' ''accuracy rate'') or '''accuracy''' of a Pokémon determines its probability of hitting another Pokémon. The initial value at the start of any battle is 100%. Along with accuracy-raising moves and items, in {{Pokémon XD}}, the player can also raise a Pokémon's accuracy by one stage by using the call action, as long as the Pokémon is not [[asleep]] or in [[Reverse Mode]] (in which case removing the condition takes precedence over raising accuracy).

==Determination of stats==
===Base stat values===
A Pokémon's [[Base stats|base stat values]] will most often have the greatest influence over their specific stats at any level. Disregarding individual values, effort values, and [[Nature]], a level 100 Pokémon's stats in Attack, Defense, Speed, Special Attack, and Special Defense will be exactly 5 more than double its base stat values in each, while the HP stat will be 110 plus double the base stat value (except in the case of {{p|Shedinja}}, whose HP is always 1).

For a list of Pokémon by their base stat values, see the [[list of Pokémon by base stats]].

===Level===
{{main|Level}}
When a Pokémon grows a level, its stats will increase. For each level gained (ignoring Nature), stats will increase by 1/50 the base stat value, and 1/100 the combined individual value and effort value. This means that it is impossible, through leveling up, for a Pokémon to ever ''lose'' points in a stat unless it evolves into a Pokémon with a lower base stat value for that specific stat or an EV-reducing Berry is used. It is also impossible for any Pokémon other than {{p|Shedinja}} not to gain HP upon leveling up without using a Pomeg Berry ({{game|Emerald}} onward) as no evolutionary line has members with a lower base HP than the pre-evolved forms.

===Nature===
{{main|Nature}}
Most Natures enhance the growth of one stat, while hindering the growth of another. After all other calculations are finished, the stat that the Nature enhances will be 110% of what it would be without the Nature, and the stat hindered will be 90% of its normal value.

===Individual values===
{{main|Individual values}}
Individual values cause two Pokémon of the same species to have different stats. Between generations there are different manners of determining them.

===Effort values===
{{main|Effort values}}
Effort values are what cause a trained Pokémon to have higher stats than an untrained counterpart of the same level. For every 4 EVs gained, a level 100 Pokémon will have 1 extra point in its stats. Variance of stats caused by EVs reaches a maximum of 63 points at level 100, as a Pokémon can gain a maximum of 255 EVs in a single stat.

===Awakening values===
{{main|Awakening values}}
Awakening values are a mechanic introduced in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], replacing {{EV}}s as the means of further raising a Pokémon's stats. A Pokémon's stat will have 1 extra point for every AV gained regardless of level, and each stat is capped at 200 AVs.

===Formula===
:''See also: {{DL|Damage|Damage calculation|Damage → Damage calculation}}''
====In Generations I and II====
The stat is rounded down if the result is a decimal.

Consider a Level 81 Pikachu with the following IVs and EVs:

Its HP can be calculated as follows:

Note that some numbers may be off by one due to rounding.

====In Generation III onward====
The stat is rounded down if the result is a decimal.

[[File:HPStatCalcGen34.png]]

[[File:OtherStatCalcGen34.png]]

These formulas mean that, aside from {{p|Shedinja}}'s HP (which is always 1) the lowest a stat can ever possibly be is 4 (or, for the HP stat, 11).

=====Example=====
Consider a Level 78 {{p|Garchomp}} with the following IVs and EVs and an '''Adamant''' [[nature]]:

{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background: #{{Dragon color dark}}; border: 5px solid #{{Dragon color}}"

| style="background:#fff" |48
| style="background:#fff" |84
| style="background:#fff" |23
| style="background:#fff; {{roundybr|5px}}" |'''510'''
|}
Its HP can be calculated as follows:

[[File:StatExampleHPGen4.png]]
[[File:StatExampleHPGen4 2.png]]

The Adamant nature raises Attack and lowers Special Attack. This means that when calculating the Attack stat, ''Nature'' = 1.1, and when calculating the Special Attack stat, ''Nature'' = 0.9. So this Garchomp's Attack stat will be:

[[File:StatExampleAttackGen4 1.png]]
[[File:StatExampleAttackGen4 2.png]]

And its Special Attack stat will be:

[[File:StatExampleSpAtkGen4 1.png]]
[[File:StatExampleSpAtkGen4 2.png]]

Its Speed stat, on the other hand, has no ''Nature'' multiplier, so it is calculated as:

[[File:StatExampleSpeedGen4 1.png]]
[[File:StatExampleSpeedGen4 2.png]]

In the end, this Garchomp's stats are as follows:

====In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]====
In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, effort values have been replaced with [[awakening values]], which are flat stat boosts added to the total after all other calculations have been made. Additionally, all non-HP stats can receive a slight boost that scales with [[friendship]]. Stats are now updated simultaneously with any changes to the variables, rather than after a Pokémon has leveled up.

The AV bonus can range anywhere between 0 and 200 for all stats, and a Pokémon can have all six stats maxed out to 200 AVs each. The friendship multiplier can range between 1 to 1.1, scaling directly with the Pokémon's level of friendship (1 + floor(10 * friendship/255)/100).

===In battle===
In battle, additional [[#Stat modifiers|modifiers]] can further alter the effective value of a stat. This is not reflected in visible stats, but instead is only accounted for when [[damage]] is done.

====Accuracy and evasion====
Accuracy and evasion are not visible anywhere as explicit stats, but they influence the probability of a move hitting. The nuances of this calculation differ between games. [[:Category:Moves that cannot miss|Some moves]] ignore accuracy checks.

=====Generations I and II=====
Whether a move hits depends on the formula:

T = Accuracymove * Accuracyuser * Evasiontarget - BrightPowder

Where...
* ''T'' is the computed threshold value that will determine whether the move will hit, always at least 1 and at most 255,
* ''Accuracymove'' is the move's [[accuracy]], a value from 0 to 255,
* ''Accuracyuser'' is the accuracy [[#Stage multipliers|stage multiplier]] of the user,
* ''Evasiontarget'' is the evasion stage multiplier of the target, and
* ''BrightPowder'' is 20 if the user is [[held item|holding]] [[Bright Powder|BrightPowder]] (in Generation II) or 0 otherwise.

The game then selects a random number ''r'' from 0 to 255 and compares it to ''T'' to determine whether the move hits.

In Generation I, if ''r'' is less than ''T'', the move hits. This results in a bug where no move can be guaranteed to hit (excluding {{m|Bide}} and {{m|Swift}}) since even if ''T'' is 255, if ''r'' is also 255, the move will miss.

In Generation II, if ''T'' is 255 or else if ''r'' is less than ''T'', the move hits. This eliminates the bug from Generation I.

=====Generations III onward=====
Whether a move hits depends on the formula:

T = Accuracymove * Adjusted_stages * Other_mods

Where...
* ''T'' is the computed threshold value that will determine whether the move will hit,
* ''Accuracymove'' is the move's [[accuracy]], a value from 1 to 100 (internally, 0 is also a valid value, but this is displayed as "—" and means that the move ignores accuracy checks),
* ''Adjusted_stages'' is the equivalent accuracy [[#Stage multipliers|stage multiplier]] of the user after the target's evasion stage is subtracted from the user's accuracy stage, both possibly modified by Ability or move effects such as {{a|Simple}} or {{m|Foresight}} (to no less than -6 and no more than 6 after the subtraction), and
* ''Other_mods'' encompasses all multipliers from other accuracy or evasion modifiers from Ability effects, [[fog]], move effects, and item effects (as can be seen in the table in the following section), serially applied.

The game then selects a random number ''r'' from 1 to 100 and compares it to ''T'' to determine whether the move hits. If ''r'' is less than or equal to ''T'', the move hits.

===Combat Power===
'''Combat Power''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|総合的|そうごうてき}}な{{tt|強|つよ}}さ''' ''Total Power''), or '''CP''' (Japanese: '''{{j|CP}}'''), is a value first introduced in [[Pokémon GO]] and carried over to [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], used to roughly summarize a Pokémon's overall potential in battle. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, it's based off the total of all a Pokémon's stats and {{AV}}s. Note that CP is not an actual statistic but rather a visual indicator of a Pokémon's overall strength, so it does not have any direct effect in battles.

[[File:CPStatCalcLGPE.png|x46px]]

The CP of any Pokémon in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! is always capped at 10,000; even if a Pokémon's stat continues to grow after that, the CP will still show as 10,000.

==Stat modifiers==
When a stat is used in a calculation in battle, a number of modifiers may be applied during the calculation. During a battle, a Pokémon's effective stats may be raised or lowered by certain [[move]]s, [[Ability|Abilities]], and [[held items]]. Some attacks may only have a chance of raising or lowering stats, while certain Abilities and held items may require a triggering event to activate any stat modifications.

The modifiers conferred by most moves operate on a sliding scale of ''[[#Stage multipliers|stages]]''. When a given stat is raised or lowered, its current stage is increased or decreased by the amount dictated by the move, up to a maximum of +6 or a minimum of -6. A given stage corresponds to a given multiplier that will modify the stat when it is used in battle calculations. The exact multipliers for stages are detailed in a later section below. Note that prior to [[Generation III]], no stat can fall below 1 or rise above 999; any further modifiers will fail regardless of whether the stat is at -6 or +6 or not. The stages of all of a Pokémon's stats are reset to zero when the Pokémon is [[Recall|withdrawn]] or affected by the moves {{m|Haze}} or {{m|Clear Smog}}, and reversed when the Pokémon is affected by {{m|Topsy-Turvy}}.

HP is the only stat that has no stages. [[Dynamax]] is the only mechanic that can directly change a Pokémon's maximum HP without changing the variables in the HP-determining formula.

If a Pokémon is under the effect of {{m|Mist}}, {{a|Clear Body}}, {{a|White Smoke}}, or {{a|Full Metal Body}}, its stat stages can only be lowered through self-inflicted methods such as {{m|Superpower}}. In [[Generation V]] onward, if a Pokémon's Ability is {{a|Simple}}, then any changes to stages are doubled. If a Pokémon's Ability is {{a|Contrary}}, then any changes to stages are reversed.

While some moves, Abilities, and held items may also modify the stages of a Pokémon's stats, others may apply unique multipliers that are separate from—and thus can stack with—stages. Examples include the move {{m|Tailwind}}, which multiplies Speed by 1.5 times, the Ability {{a|Slow Start}}, which temporarily halves Attack and Speed, and the held item [[Choice Band]], which multiplies Attack by 1.5 times.

From Generation V onward, the Speed stat has boundaries put in place that don't apply to any other stat. After taking stat stages and all other modifiers into account, if the resulting Speed stat is above 10000, it is reduced to 10000. The speed stat is then subtracted from 10000 if and only if {{m|Trick Room}} is in effect, and finally if the Speed stat is greater than or equal to 8192, it is reduced by 8192 to produce the final figure used in speed comparisons. As a result, a Pokémon that runs into the limit of 10000 Speed is further reduced to an effective 1808.

===In-battle modification===
In the table below, anything in italics is capable of modifying one stat out of two or more and may not always affect the same one.

===Stage modification quotes===

The "Pokémon" identifier in the quotes below includes a prefix that varies depending on the situation; most wild Pokémon (but not all) and opposing Pokémon have one. If a move would raise a stat that is too high or lower a stat that is too low as a secondary effect, a quote will not be shown.

===Stage multipliers===
When a move is used that increases or decreases a stat of a Pokémon in battle, it will be multiplied according to the following fractions, depending on the generation:

|}
In Generations I and II, accuracy and evasion stages are resolved separately and both multipliers applied to the move's accuracy to determine the final chance of a move hitting or missing. For example, a Pokémon with -1 accuracy using a move that has 100% accuracy on a target with +1 evasion would have a 66/100 * 66/100 ~= 43.56% chance of hitting in Generation I, or a 75/100 * 75/100 ~= 56.25% chance of hitting in Generation II. In Generation III, this was changed so that the stages of the two stats are now combined before determining the multiplier, with the evasion stage subtracted from the accuracy stage. Therefore, in the above situation, the attacking Pokémon would have a 60/100 = 60% chance of hitting.<ref>[http://www.dragonflycave.com/statstages.aspx Dragonfly Cave on stat stages mechanics]</ref>

Additionally, the combined stages are capped at -6 and +6 from Generation III onward, meaning that a Pokémon with minimum accuracy attacking a target with maximum evasion will have no lower than a 33/100 or 33% chance to hit. (For comparison, in Generation II, the attacker would only have a 33/100 * 33/100 ~= 10.89% chance of hitting.)

In [[Generation IV]], if a Pokémon's [[Ability]] is {{a|Simple}}, then its stats will be multiplied as if the stat change was doubled. For example, a stat raised by one stage will be multiplied as if it were raised by two stages.

==In other games==
===In the Mystery Dungeon series===
In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], Pokémon have HP, Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and [[#Speed 2|Speed]]{{sup/md|SMD}}{{sup/md|DX}} stats, just like in the core games. However, these games also have a few stats not seen in the core games.

There is no formula to determine the stats of the Pokémon; instead, stats are taken from lookup tables of a Pokémon, which varies with the species, generally correlating with their base stats in the core series.

Stats are capped at 500 HP (999 HP prior to Super Mystery Dungeon) and 255 for all other stats.

====Movement Speed/Travel Speed====
{{main|Travel Speed}}
Movement Speed{{sup/md|RB}}{{sup/md|TDS}} or Travel Speed{{sup/md|GtI}}{{sup/md|SMD}}{{sup/md|DX}} is roughly considered the Mystery Dungeon series' analogue to Speed in the core games. It governs the number of actions (such as moving, attacking, or using an item) a Pokémon may take in a given turn.

====Speed====
The Speed stat was not used in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series until {{pkmn|Super Mystery Dungeon}}, where it is used as an accuracy modifier; the higher speed a Pokémon has, the more likely it is for its moves to hit and the more likely it is to evade attacks.

====Belly====
The '''Belly''' (Japanese: '''{{j|おなか}}''' ''stomach'') is a hunger statistic in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series. As the team leader explores a [[Mystery Dungeon|dungeon]], its Belly will diminish as turns go by, represented by a number decreasing from 100. Holding certain {{OBP|Scarf|Mystery Dungeon|scarves}} and looplets will cause the Belly to decrease more quickly. Walking one step or taking most other actions (such as attacking, using a non-linked move, or using a non-food item) takes 1/10{{sup/md|RB}}{{sup/md|TDS}}{{sup/md|GtI}} or 1/7{{sup/md|SMD}}{{sup/md|DX}} belly point (by default; certain scarves and looplets increase or decrease the rate, as mentioned), using linked moves consumes 1 Belly point per move after the first, pushing other Pokémon takes a half belly point, and performing [[Alliance]]s takes three belly points. Other items will cause the Belly to deplete at a much slower rate, or not deplete at all. While a Pokémon's Belly is empty, it will no longer be able to run or perform linked moves or Alliances, its passive HP regeneration will cease, and if the leader is hungry, its HP will decrease by 1{{sup/md|RB}}{{sup/md|TDS}}{{sup/md|GtI}}/3{{sup/md|SMD}}{{sup/md|DX}} every turn until it either [[Fainting|faints]] or eats something.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity|Gates to Infinity]], this feature was removed for most dungeons, but the mechanic returned in all dungeons in {{pkmn|Super Mystery Dungeon}}.

In Super Mystery Dungeon, hungry team members are indicated with a yellow HP bar in the touch screen.

In Super Mystery Dungeon and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX|Rescue Team DX]], each team member has their own hunger statistic. While the lead Pokémon's Belly depletes, the team members' don't so they can be switched to if the lead Pokémon's Belly gets low.

Belly can be replenished by eating most consumable items. When something is eaten at maximum Belly, the Pokémon's maximum Belly will increase temporarily until the dungeon is exited.

====Determination of Stats====
The Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series uses lookup tables to determine statistics. Each statistic depends on the Pokémon's species (and [[List of Pokémon with form differences|form]]) and [[level]], so Pokémon with the same species and level will always have identical statistics.

====Stat modifiers====
Stat modification works basically the same in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series as in the core series, but stat stages can range from -10 to +10. Whenever a Pokémon leaves a dungeon, advances a floor, or steps on a Wonder Tile, its stat stages reset to 0.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20140918063904/http://www.upokecenter.com/content/pokemon-mystery-dungeon-2-stats-and-values The Ultimate Pokémon Center on stats changes from first two Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games]</ref>

=====Stage multipliers=====
The Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series uses different multipliers for its stat stages than the core series games do.

===In Pokémon Conquest===
{{incomplete|section|Formula for Strength}}

In [[Pokémon Conquest]], Pokémon have HP, Range, Attack, Defense, and Speed stats, as well as a non-numeric Energy stat, and a derived stat called Strength.

While Range remains a fixed value, HP, Attack, Defense, and Speed are influenced by the Pokémon's Energy, and will also increase when the [[link]] with their Warrior increases.

====Determination of stats====
Much like in the core series, a Pokémon has base stat values for its species, and individual values that range from 0 to 31. Base stats in Pokémon Conquest are derived from the stats of a Level 100 Pokémon in a core series game with no EVs or IVs and a neutral nature. Attack is derived from either Attack or Special Attack depending on the category of that Pokémon's move in the core series, but often breaking from this if its other offensive stat is much higher. Defense is derived from the average of Defense and Special Defense in the core series, while HP and Speed are simply taken at face value.

HP, Attack, Defense, and Speed are all calculated from one formula:

[[File:Conquest_stat_formula.png]]

Attack, Defense, and Speed can all increase and decrease in stages; these work like they do [[#Stat modifiers|in the core series]], but generally only last a certain number of turns in battle. For example, the Adrenaline [[Warrior Skill]] raises a Pokémon's Attack by 1 stage, corresponding to a x1.5 increase with no prior modifiers, but the boost only lasts three turns.

====Range====
'''Range''' (Japanese: '''いどう''' ''movement'') determines the amount of tiles a Pokémon is able to move across the game's grid-based battlefields. This stat is a species-specific value; each of the 200 Pokémon species found in the game has a natural Range of 2, 3, or 4, with 3 being the most common. This means that any two Pokémon of the same species will always have the same Range unless something has modified their Ranges (signified by the value's text color changing from black to blue).

Range can be temporarily modified during battle by various [[Warrior Skill]]s, [[List of Abilities in Pokémon Conquest|Abilities]], and [[move]]s. The Ability {{DL|List of Abilities in Pokémon Conquest|Sprint}} permanently modifies Range, keeping it 1 above its natural value even outside of battle. Range has a maximum value of 6 and a minimum of 1. Snowy terrain will also hinder a Pokémon's movement.

====Speed====
In Pokémon Conquest, Speed does not determine movement or who gets to move first. Rather, Speed acts as a combination of Accuracy and Evasion. One Pokémon attacking another Pokémon that is significantly faster than it will have a lesser chance to hit its opponent, while a Pokémon that is faster than its opponent will have a better chance to hit it.

====Energy====
'''Energy''' (Japanese: '''テンション''' ''Tension'') affects a Pokémon's performance in battle and their [[link]] with their Warrior. A Pokémon's Energy can fluctuate between 5 levels, indicated by an arrow icon next to the Pokémon. A neutral state is indicated by a yellow arrow pointing straight right, while a higher state is indicated by the arrow angling upwards and turning more orange and a lower state is indicated by the arrow angling downwards and turning blue.

A Pokémon's stats are given a multiplier based on its Energy level:

{| class="roundy" style="background: #d32c3e; {{roundy|10px}}; border: 3px solid #090809"
|-
! style="background:#ed6374; {{roundytl|5px}}" |Energy level
! style="background:#ed6374; {{roundytr|5px}}" |Multiplier
|- style="background:#ffa64d"
|Highest
|1.1
|- style="background:#ffcc99"
|High
|1.05
|- style="background:#ffeecc"
|Neutral
|1
|- style="background:#cce6ff"
|Low
|0.95
|- style="background:#80c1ff"
| style="{{roundybl|5px}}" |Lowest
| style="{{roundybr|5px}}" |0.9
|}

In addition, a Pokémon with maximum Energy will gain slightly more link percentage after a battle, while a Pokémon with minimum Energy will gain less link percentage. Once every three months, every Pokémon in the army may have its Energy randomly increased or decreased by one stage.

The main way to recover Energy is by visiting {{DL|Kingdom location|Ponigiri Shop}}s, where buying [[Ponigiri]] will recover Energy for all Pokémon visiting the shop. Upgrading a Ponigiri shop allows for more expensive Ponigiri to be purchased which recover more Energy at once. Sometimes, the shop owner will offer a free second helping; accepting will either raise the Pokémon's Energy to a maximum, cause it to drop, or do nothing at all. Energy can also be increased with certain {{DL|Pokémon Conquest|kingdom events}}. Energy can also be recovered during battle by using [[List of Pokémon Conquest items|items]], [[List of Abilities in Pokémon Conquest|Pokémon abilities]], or by using certain [[Warrior Skill]]s. However, Energy boosts granted by Warrior Skills only last a number of turns, and the Pokémon's Energy will return to its prior value afterward. On occasions, at the start of a battle, a cutscene may show the player's Warlord talking about not wanting to lose to a certain enemy Warlord. The Warlord's Pokémon will then have their Energy raised for the battle.

====Strength====
'''Strength''' (Japanese: '''せんりょく''' ''battle ability'') is a derived value of the overall power of the Pokémon written as a number displayed next to the Pokémon. It increases when a Pokémon's link with its Warrior increases. It is not influenced by the Pokémon's Energy. A Warrior's army has a Strength equal to the combined Strength of their Pokémon. The strength of a Warrior's army may influence the behavior of other Warriors and the Strength of their armies.

====Warrior stats====
{{main|Warrior#Stats|Warrior → Stats}}
A [[Warrior]] in Pokémon Conquest has four stats of their own as well: Power, Wisdom, Charisma, and Capacity. Power, Wisdom, and Charisma influence how well the Pokémon a Warrior is [[link]]ed with perform in battle, as well as the outcomes when the Warrior visits various [[kingdom location]]s. Capacity limits the number of Pokémon a Warrior can link with.

===In Pokémon GO===
{{incomplete|section|Stat calculation example}}
Pokémon in [[Pokémon GO]] have '''HP''', '''Attack''', and '''Defense''' stats, as well as a derived stat, '''CP'''. Pokémon GO makes no distinction between physical or special damage like the core games do; instead, all [[List of moves in Pokémon GO|attacks]] simply use Attack and Defense to calculate damage. Of the four stats in Pokémon GO, however, only HP and CP are directly visible. For more information on how damage is calculated in GO, see {{DL|Damage|Pokémon GO|Damage → Pokémon GO}}.

====Conversion from the core series====
Each [[List of Pokémon by base stats (GO)|Pokémon's base stats]] are based off its stats from the core series. Base stats for Pokémon from Generations [[Generation I|I]] and [[Generation II|II]] are calculated using the base stats from the [[Generation VI]] core series. Pokémon from Generations [[Generation III|III]] and [[Generation IV|IV]] are based off their [[Generation VII]] base stats.

Aside from a few outliers, such as {{p|Shedinja}}'s HP, base stats in GO can be approximated by the following formulas: <ref>[https://pokemongo.gamepress.gg/explaining-october-2018-stat-change Explaining the October 2018 Stat Change]</ref>

[[File:HP conversion GO.png|x20px]]

[[File:Attack conversion GO.png|x48px]]

[[File:Defense conversion GO.png|x48px]]

[[File:SpeedMult GO.png|x45px]]

where
* <code>HP</code> is the HP stat from the core series
* <code>Attack</code> and <code>SpAtk</code> are the Attack and Sp. Attack stats from the core series
* <code>Defense</code> and <code>SpDef</code> are the Defense and Sp. Defense stats from the core series
* <code>Speed</code> is the Speed stat from the core series

After these calculations, if a Pokémon has a maximum CP of over 4,000, then for balancing purposes, all its base stats will be multiplied by 0.91.

====Determination of stats====
Calculating a Pokémon's stats in Pokémon GO depends on [[List of Pokémon by base stats (GO)|its species' base stats]], its [[individual values|IVs]], and its [[Power Up]] level. Whereas the core games have many ways in which one Pokémon's stats can become different from another's, in Pokémon GO, ultimately only a Pokémon's IVs will distinguish its stats from another of the same species.

The formulas for the three basic stats are

[[File:Stat calc GO.png|x25px]]

where
* <code>base</code> refers to the relevant base stat
* <code>IV</code> refers to the IV for the stat in question
* <code>cpMult</code> is the CP multiplier, which is determined by the Pokémon's current [[Power Up]] level.
** For HP, the minimum value is 10.

Pokémon defending a {{OBP|Gym|GO}} also have twice their regular HP during Gym battles.

====CP====
'''Combat Power''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|総合的|そうごうてき}}な{{tt|強|つよ}}さ''' ''Total Power''), abbreviated as '''CP''' (Japanese: '''{{j|CP}}'''), is a value derived from all three base stats to roughly indicate a Pokémon's capability in battle. This means that two Pokémon of the same species with the same CP may still have slightly different underlying stats.

The formula for CP uses the values of the stats resulting from the formula above (without rounding their results and before accounting for HP's minimum of 10):

[[File:CP calc GO.png]]

However, like HP, the minimum value for CP is also 10. Since Attack is factored directly into the formula for CP while HP and Defense are only factored in after taking their square root, this gives Attack a greater influence on the final value of CP than the other two stats.

====In-battle modification====
Since February 15, 2019, in {{OBP|Trainer Battle|GO}}s, some [[List of moves in Pokémon GO#Charged Attacks|Charged Attacks]] have a chance of increasing the user's stats or decreasing the opponent's stats after use.

===={{anchor|JP|Jump Power}}====
{{incomplete|section}}
'''Jump Power''' (Japanese: '''はねる{{tt|力|ちから}}''' ''Jump Power''), or '''JP''' (Japanese: '''{{j|CP}}'''), is a stat that indicates a {{p|Magikarp}}'s ability to jump in [[Pokémon: Magikarp Jump]]. As the Jump Power becomes larger and larger, it will be measured with the help of {{wp|SI prefix}}es.

==In the anime==
{{incomplete|section|other appearances}}
[[File:Korrina Lucario Swords Dance.png|thumb|250px|[[Korrina's Lucario]]'s raising its attack power with {{m|Swords Dance}}]]
Stats in the anime appear to leave out the Special and Physical concept. It is more dependent on attack power and the amount of damage inflicted instead of Attack and Special Attack, and endurance rather than Special Defense and Defense.

===In the [[original series]]===
In ''[[EP140|Wired For Battle!]]'', HP was shown on [[Shingo]]'s laptop where Blade's {{m|Quick Attack}} lowered {{AP|Heracross}}'s HP by half.

===In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]''===
In ''[[AG111|Eight Ain't Enough]]'', [[Juan]]'s {{p|Whiscash}} used {{m|Tickle}} on [[Ash's Swellow]] which lowered Swellow's defensive strength.

In ''[[AG128|Shocks and Bonds]]'', [[Johnny]]'s {{p|Aggron}} used {{m|Harden}}, a Defense-boosting move, which defended itself against {{ho|Tyson}}'s {{p|Sceptile}}'s {{m|Solar Beam}}, a special move.

===In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''===
In ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'', [[Paul]]'s {{p|Weavile}} used {{m|Swords Dance}}, an Attack-boosting move, which boosted {{m|Blizzard}}, a special move, as well as {{m|Ice Shard}} and {{m|Metal Claw}}.

===In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''===
In ''[[BW023|Battling For The Love of Bug-Types!]]'', [[Burgh]]'s {{p|Whirlipede}} used {{m|Iron Defense}} to defend itself against [[Ash's Sewaddle]]'s {{m|Bug Bite}}.

In ''[[BW104|Mission: Defeat Your Rival!]]'', {{an|Bianca}}'s {{p|Escavalier}} used Iron Defense several times to maximize its Defense.

===In ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''===
As of ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'', Pokémon will occasionally glow red after their attack strength has changed, as exhibited by [[Korrina's Lucario]] in ''[[XY030|Mega Revelations!]]'', or blue after their defensive strength has been changed, as shown by [[Alain]]'s [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', [[Ramos]]'s {{p|Jumpluff}} in ''[[XY058|The Green, Green Grass Types of Home!]]'', and {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Pikachu}} in ''[[XY128|A Riveting Rivalry!]]''.

===In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''===
''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' generally retains the added visual aids from ''Pokémon the Series: XY'', as seen as when [[Kiawe's Turtonator]] used {{m|Shell Smash}} in ''[[SM034|A Crowning Moment of Truth!]]''. However, in ''[[SM104|That's Some Spicy Island Research!]]'', [[Hapu]]'s {{p|Mudsdale}} glowed red while increasing its defense with {{a|Stamina}}.

I noticed that nearly all of your edits so far were basically you changing a number or name in a page without any apparent reason or source, effectively making it wrong.

'''Beheeyem''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オーベム''' ''Ohbem'') is a {{type|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Elgyem}} starting at [[level]] 42.

==Biology==
Beheeyem is a brown [[extraterrestrial Pokémon]] with an oblong head that features depressions on both sides. It has black, symmetrical lines going down the front of its head. Under the rim of its head, there lay two green eyes with small black pupils. It has a lighter brown "collar" and four dots on its chest of the same color. Beheeyem's arms have three finger-like digits: one red, one green, and one yellow. It has a rim underneath its main body, under which are two small legs. It communicates by flashing its multi-colored fingers. Beheeyem can manipulate the memories of its opponents, being able to erase or even rewrite them. Beheeyem is believed to be responsible for the mysterious disappearances of {{p|Dubwool}} whenever it visits a farm.

==In the anime==
[[File:Capacia Island Beheeyem.png|thumb|left|250px|Beheeyem in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Beheeyem debuted in ''[[BW045|Beheeyem, Duosion, and the Dream Thief!]]'', under the ownership of {{OBP|Leon|BW045}}, a.k.a. the "Dream Thief". Beheeyem had befriended {{MTR}} so that Leon could lure {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} into a trap. It later kidnapped {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Iris|Axew}}, and Meowth while they were sleeping, replacing them all with dolls. It also stole Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}}'s on hand Pokémon while they slept.

Multiple Beheeyem appeared in ''[[BW133|Capacia Island UFO!]]'', where they were searching for a {{wp|Koban (coin)|koban}} that fell in [[Capacia Island]] when their flying saucer crashed there. They had hypnotized the town's population to help them in their search.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Beheeyem is based on {{wp|grey alien|greys}}, one of the more popular kinds of {{wp|extraterrestrial life|alien}}. Judging from {{p|Elgyem}}'s Pokédex entry, it and its evolution may also be based on the {{wp|Area 51}} {{wp|Area 51#UFO and other conspiracy theories|alien conspiracy theories}} or the {{wp|Roswell UFO incident|Roswell incident}}. Additionally, Beheeyem's design resembles a person wearing a hat and trench-coat and is likely based on stereotypical spies, shady figures, "{{wp|Men in Black}}", or government agents in connection with alien sightings. The colored fingers on its hands resemble the colorful faces of the invaders in the {{wp|The War of the Worlds (1953 film)|1953 ''War of the Worlds'' film}}; the aliens in the film had green, blue and red dots just like Beheeyem's {{Shiny}} coloration. The flashing patterns of its fingers may have been inspired by the 1977 science fiction film ''{{wp|Close Encounters of the Third Kind}}'', particularly the iconic scene where flashing color and sound patterns are used to communicate with the alien mothership. Its rock-like design may reference Japanese ''{{wp|Dogū}}'' statues, which have often been confused for alien artifacts. Considering its species names, physical appearance, and powers, it may also be based on a {{wp|brain}}.

====Name origin====
Beheeyem is a corruption of the abbreviation ''{{wp|Bug-eyed monster|BEM}}'', an old-fashioned term used to refer to extraterrestrials.

Ohbem may be a combination of ''orb'' and ''{{wp|Bug-eyed monster|BEM}}'' (pronounced as a single word in Japanese). ''Oh'' may also refer to 大 ''ō'' (large) and ''bem'' may also refer to ''beam'' (referencing {{wp|tractor beam}}s from {{wp|UFOs}}).

A '''Gentleman''' (Japanese: '''{{j|ジェントルマン}}''' ''Gentleman'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that debuted in the [[Generation I]] games. They are older men in dapper suits.

They generally use Pokémon based on pets - such as {{p|Growlithe}}, {{p|Manectric}}, or {{p|Chatot}}. They also tend to give out large amounts of money for winning. In the [[Battle Subway]], they specialize in [[Legendary Pokémon]].

In Pokémon Stadium, the trainer class is known as '''Old Man'''. In [[Generation IV]], they gain a female counterpart, the {{tc|Madame|Socialite}}. In [[Generation VI]], the {{tc|Monsieur}} class appears to be a [[Kalos]] counterpart.

In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon}}, and [[Generation VIII]], they keep their Pokémon in [[Luxury Ball]]s.

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], Gentlemen battled outside of [[Gym]]s will award three {{i|Poké Ball}}s along with [[prize money]] upon being defeated.

==In the anime==
[[File:Gentleman EP015.png|thumb|250px|A Gentleman in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
A Gentleman appeared in ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]''. This Gentleman owned a {{AP|Raticate}} that, oddly enough, could use {{m|Jump Kick}}. {{Ash}} traded his {{AP|Butterfree}} for the Raticate, but during the resistance against [[Team Rocket]]'s takeover of the [[S.S. Anne|St. Anne]], he grew a little worried about his Butterfree. Once the takeover was fully thwarted, he and the Gentleman traded back their Pokémon, just before the St. Anne started sinking due to a storm.

A Gentleman appeared in {{MTR}}'s fantasy in ''[[EP174|Imitation Confrontation]]''.

A Gentleman made a brief cameo appearance in ''[[AG157|Time Warp Heals All Wounds]]''.

Suic12-: That's according to the gentleman page. That info was added there very early on and remained unchanched, so if the correct would be singular, please change it there too

'''Old man''' has several referrals:
* '''[[Old man (Kanto)]]''', an old man who lives at [[Viridian City]], teaching the {{player}} to catch Pokémon.
* '''[[Old man glitch]]''', the glitch in which the old man at [[Viridian City]] is involved in.
* '''[[Day-Care Couple|Day-Care Man]]''', the man found at various day cares, and gives the player Eggs.
* '''[[Old man (DP039)]]''', a [[character of the day]] in ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies!]]''.
* '''[[Fun Old Man (Trainer class)]]''', the name of a {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} in {{g|Colosseum}} and {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}.
* '''[[Gentleman (Trainer class)]]''', a Trainer class that was known as '''Old Men''' in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}.

Baby Pokémon

Suic12-: /* See also */

[[File:Brock and Happiny.png|thumb|220px|{{an|Brock}} holding his baby {{TP|Brock|Happiny}}]]
'''Baby Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''ベイビィポケモン''' ''baby Pokémon'') are Pokémon at the lowest stage of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[Evolution]] that cannot themselves [[Pokémon breeding|breed]]. The concept was introduced in [[Generation II]], along with breeding. Specifically, baby Pokémon can be classified by the following criteria:
*Must be obtainable by breeding.
*Must be the lowest form in a family chain and must be able to evolve at least once.
*Must belong to the {{egg|Undiscovered}} [[Egg Group]].

The only baby Pokémon introduced alongside their evolved form are {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Riolu}}, and {{p|Toxel}}; the rest were introduced in generations after their evolved form was. Many baby Pokémon require maximized [[friendship]] to evolve.

In the games, most baby Pokémon are only obtainable through breeding. On occasion, [[non-player character]]s will give the {{player}} an {{pkmn|Egg}} containing a baby Pokémon, and this Pokémon typically cannot be obtained by any other method except by breeding. [[Generation III]] introduced the first baby Pokémon able to be caught in the wild: {{p|Wynaut}} on {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}}. In [[Generation IV]], many other baby Pokémon were also available in the wild.

From [[Generation III]] on, in order to breed most newly introduced baby Pokémon, the parent in their evolutionary line must hold a specific [[Incense]] before breeding, which provides a rationale for why those parent Pokémon could not produce these Eggs in previous generations. For example, {{p|Marill}}, who was introduced in [[Generation II]], could not produce Azurill Eggs until the introduction of the [[Sea Incense]] in Generation III.

==In the anime==
[[File:Baby Pokémon anime.png|thumb|250px|Several baby Pokémon and a {{p|Teddiursa}} in ''[[DP190|The Brockster Is In!]]'']]
All baby Pokémon—except {{p|Toxel}}—have appeared in the {{pkmn|anime}} so far, with some belonging to main characters. While most of them appear in the [[Pikachu short]]s regularly, all have had major appearances in the anime. In some cases, other newborn Pokémon are called baby Pokémon as well.

Baby Pokémon usually have childish personalities, but some begin to show signs of maturity after gaining experience or evolving, such as when [[Brock's Bonsly]] gave up bottle-feeding. However, [[Paul's Elekid]] was shown to have inherited his harsh personality. This is not limited to owned Pokémon, as ''[[DP142|Where No Togepi Has Gone Before!]]'' portrays a wild {{p|Togepi}} with mischievous intentions.

Pichu first appeared in ''[[EP179|The Apple Corp]]'', where it was stealing apples from {{OBP|Charmaine|EP179}}'s apple orchard.

In ''[[EP246|Wish Upon a Star Shape]]'', a Cleffa fell from a spaceship that belonged to the kleptomaniac {{p|Clefairy}} from ''[[EP062|Clefairy Tales]]''.

Igglybuff twins belonging to {{OBP|Brittany|EP243}} appeared in ''[[EP243|Same Old Song and Dance]]'', where they were practicing for a concert.

An abandoned Tyrogue appeared in ''[[EP233|A Tyrogue Full of Trouble]]''.

In ''[[EP203|The Screen Actor's Guilt]]'', [[Brad Van Darn]] owned a Smoochum. His agent is afraid that Brad's image as an action star would be ruined if this was made public.

A {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Satchel]] was trying to get his Magby to evolve for the Silver Conference in ''[[EP262|You're A Star, Larvitar]]'' and succeeded. It reappeared in ''[[EP263|Address Unown!]]'' where it was part of an {{p|Unown}}'s dimension.

A Smoochum appeared in ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby!]]'', where she was protected by three Jynx, and later taken by Team Rocket who tried to turn her into a star. Smoochum evolved into another Jynx at the end.

Three Chingling appeared in ''[[DP070|The Bells Are Singing!]]'', under the ownership of [[Francesca]].

{{Ash}} used a Mantyke for the second leg of the Pokémon Triathlon in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]''.

Several baby Pokémon, including Pichu, Cleffa, Wynaut, Smoochum, Igglybuff, and Azurill, appeared in ''[[DP190|The Brockster Is In!]]''.

A Pichu appeared in ''[[XY016|A Jolting Switcheroo!]]'', under the ownership of [[Lena]]. Bonnie mistakenly takes [[Lyn]]'s bag containing Pichu, but she got Pichu back by the end of the episode.

Several baby Pokémon, including Pichu, Cleffa, Igglybuff, Togepi, Smoochum, and Magby, appeared in ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'', where they were chasing a {{p|Chikorita}} near the ending credits.

===Misty's Togepi===
{{main|Misty's Togepi}}
In ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', Ash finds an Egg that hatches into a {{p|Togepi}} in ''[[EP050|Who Gets to Keep Togepi?]]''. Since Misty is the first thing the Baby Pokémon sees, it believes she is its mother. It later evolved in ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage]]''.

===Recurring Wynaut===
{{main|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime#Wynaut|Wynaut (anime)}}
{{p|Wynaut}} first appeared during the [[Blackthorn City]] arc (''[[EP252|Fangs for Nothin']]'' - ''[[EP255|Why? Wynaut!]]''), but [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]], [[Ash's Bayleef]] and [[Ash's Noctowl]] were the only ones to see it.

===May's Munchlax===
{{main|May's Munchlax}}
{{an|May}} {{pkmn2|caught}} a {{p|Munchlax}} in ''[[AG117|Berry, Berry Interesting]]'' and has used it in several [[Pokémon Contest]]s. It is her only Pokémon that likes her [[Pokéblock]]s.

===Misty's Azurill===
{{main|Misty's Azurill}}
{{an|Misty}} was seen with an {{p|Azurill}} in ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]''; it was hatched from the egg that [[Tracey's Marill]] produced.

===James's Mime Jr.===
{{main|James's Mime Jr.}}
[[James]] obtained a Mime Jr. from his [[Nanny and Pop-Pop]] in ''[[AG147|Sweet Baby James]]''.

===Brock's Bonsly===
{{main|Brock's Bonsly}}
In ''[[AG156|From Cradle to Save]]'', {{an|Brock}} captured a {{p|Bonsly}} and took care of him. He evolved into {{p|Sudowoodo}} in ''[[DP014|Leave it To Brocko!]]''.

===Paul's Elekid===
{{main|Paul's Elekid}}
[[Paul]] owned an {{p|Elekid}} that he used to battle [[Ash's Pikachu]] in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]'' and [[Roark]] in ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come]]''. It evolved into {{p|Electabuzz}} in ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit]]'', and evolved into {{p|Electivire}} off-screen, prior to ''[[DP184|Casting a Paul on Barry!]]''.

===Nando's Budew===
{{main|Nando's Budew}}
{{p|Budew}} made its first major appearance in ''[[DP004|Dawn of a New Era!]]''. It was owned by a minstrel called [[Nando]] and used in battle against [[Dawn's Piplup]] and [[Ash's Pikachu]]. It evolved into {{p|Roselia}} in the second battle. It later evolved into {{p|Roserade}} prior to ''[[DP176|Coming Full-Festival Circle!]]''.

===Brock's Happiny===
{{main|Brock's Happiny}}
{{an|Brock}}'s {{pkmn|Egg}} hatched into a {{p|Happiny}} in ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]''. Unusually, in contrast to Happiny's extremely low Attack stat in the {{pkmn|games}}, she has amazing strength and can run with, pummel, and carry many heavy items and Pokémon for her size, such as having the ability to fling her Trainer into the air with ease and carrying [[Ash's Grotle]] around in ''[[DP103|Jumping Rocket Ship!]]''. She evolved into a Chansey in ''[[DP190|The Brockster Is In!]]''.

===Aura Sphere Riolu===
{{main|Aura Sphere Riolu}}
{{p|Riolu}} was featured in [[DP071|both]] [[DP072|parts]] of ''Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu!''. This Riolu had been trained to use {{m|Aura Sphere}} and was unnaturally strong. It was taken away from the lab by [[J's henchmen]] to exploit it, but {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} returned it to [[Lucario Kingdom|its kingdom]] with [[Kellyn]]'s help. This Riolu developed a strong bond with {{Ash}}.

===Cameron's Riolu===
{{main|Cameron's Riolu}}
{{un|Cameron}}'s {{p|Riolu}} first appeared with its Trainer in ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]''. It evolved into {{p|Lucario}} in ''[[BW107|Cameron's Secret Weapon!]]''.

===Ash's Riolu===
{{main|Ash's Riolu}}
{{Ash}}'s {{p|Riolu}} hatched from an egg in [[JN021]]. Ash receives the egg from [[Nurse Joy]]. It ran away after hatching wanting to fight many wild Pokémon, but eventually properly bonded with Ash and joined his team.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Pibu Hatching.png|thumb|200px|Pichu hatching from his Egg]]
All baby Pokémon—except {{p|Toxel}}—have appeared in Pokémon Adventures so far, with some belonging to main characters. {{adv|Gold}} is known for being able to draw out the largest potential of a baby Pokémon, having the title of "'''{{tc|Pokémon Breeder|Hatcher}}'''".

Cleffa and Igglybuff first appeared in ''[[PS107|Gligar Glide]]'', escaping from the Daycare Center near [[Goldenrod City]]. Their first major appearance was in ''[[PS143|Irked Igglybuff and Curmudgeonly Cleffa]]'', under the ownership of [[Whitney]].

Smoouchum first appeared in ''[[PS107|Gligar Glide]]'', escaping from the Daycare Center near Goldenrod City. Its first major appearance was in ''[[PS117|Slugging It Out With Slugma]]'', with one belonging to {{adv|Crystal}} with the nickname Chumee.

Ken of the [[Team Rocket Elite Trio]] is seen with an Elekid in ''[[PS094|Elekid Incorporated]]''.

Magby first appeared in ''[[PS107|Gligar Glide]]'', escaping from the Daycare Center near Goldenrod City. Crystal is later seen capturing one in ''[[PS121|Off Course with Corsola]]''.

Azurill debuted in ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]'' as one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in [[Ilex Forest]].

Wynaut first made a cameo as one of the many Trainer-owned Pokémon who were transported to stop {{DL|Tower duo (Adventures)|Ho-Oh}} and {{DL|Tower duo (Adventures)|Lugia}}'s rampage in ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]''. In ''[[PS256|With a Spoink in Your Step II]]'', many wild Wynaut made an appearance on {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}}, where {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}} trained for the upcoming battle against [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]].

Budew first appeared in ''[[PS349|Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone]]'' under the ownership of a Trainer.

Chingling first appeared in ''[[PS349|Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone]]''. A Chingling belonging to the [[Advanced level Grunt]] of [[Team Galactic]] appeared in ''[[PS358|Stunning Staravia & Stinky Skuntank I]]''. It has an unusually threatening face, and powerful sound abilities to match.

Bonsly first appeared in ''[[PS418|Deprogramming Porygon-Z]]''.

Mime Jr. first appeared in ''[[PS457|All About Arceus VI]]'' under the ownership of Ken.

Happiny first appeared in ''[[PS349|Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone]]''.

[[Professor Kukui]] owns a Munchlax that first appeared in [[PASM05]].

Riolu first appeared in ''[[PS356|Magnificent Meditite & Really Riolu I]]'', under the ownership of [[Maylene]]. He is capable of using {{m|Aura Sphere}}.

In ''[[PS382|Vexing Vespiquen & Unmanageable Mothim II]]'', {{adv|Diamond}} helps protect an {{pkmn|Egg}} containing Riolu from two [[Team Galactic|Galactic]]-hired thugs, and after they are defeated, it hatches and is shown to interact with its {{p|Lucario|evolved form}}. It decided to stay with [[Riley]].

A Mantyke first appeared in ''[[PS417|Leaping Past Lopunny]]'' under the ownership of a Trainer.

====Gold's Togepi====
{{main|Togebo}}
Gold was given an Egg created by [[Jasmine]]'s {{p|Togetic}} from [[Professor Elm]] that later hatched into a Togepi named Togebo in ''[[PS107|Gligar Glide]]''. Due to his abilities as a hatcher, Togebo was born with Gold's trouble-making habits. He evolved into Togetic and again into {{p|Togekiss}} in ''[[PS459|All About Arceus VIII]]''.

====Gold's Pichu====
{{main|Pibu}}
Pichu first appeared in ''[[PS178|The Last Battle XII]]'', hatching from an Egg held by Gold. Due to not knowing his species name, Yellow gave him a named inspired by the names of his parents, [[Pika]] and [[Chuchu]]. Due to his abilities as a hatcher, Pibu inherited most of Gold's personality, as well as a similar tuft of hair.

====Diamond's Munchlax====
{{main|Lax (Adventures)}}
Diamond owns a Munchlax named Lax which, like him, has a very gluttonous nature, prone to eating dozens of people's worth of snacks out the get-go. Despite being a baby Pokémon with little training, he showed considerable stamina and durability. He first appeared in ''[[PS338|Stagestruck Starly]]''.

==In the TCG==
Baby Pokémon in the [[Trading Card Game]] used to be its own [[:Category:Baby Pokémon cards|evolutionary stage]] during [[Generation II]], which also counted as Basic Pokémon and stated they could evolve into their respective Pokémon. Despite their low {{TCG|Hit Points}}, Baby Pokémon required the opponent to flip a coin to suceed attacking as long it was in the active position. In [[Generation III]] and most of [[Generation IV]], they were simplified into Basic Pokémon with the ''Baby Evolution'' {{TCG|Poké-Power}}, which allowed them to evolve into their respective Pokémon and heal its damage counters in the process.

In the {{TCG|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} era, these Pokémon could no longer evolve but had the ''Sweet Sleeping Face'' {{TCG|Poké-Body}}, an effect slightly similar to the original coin flip protection. Baby Pokémon returned in the Sun & Moon {{TCG|Tag Team}} era still unable to evolve, featuring {{TCG|Ability|Abilities}} that were activated by flipping a coin and ended the player's turn regardless of the outcome. A Tag Team [[Togepi & Cleffa & Igglybuff-GX (Cosmic Eclipse 143)|card]] featuring some Baby Pokémon got released as well.

Togepi, Riolu and Toxel, which got introduced in the same generation as their evolutions, are always counted as regular Basic Pokémon which can evolve normally.

==Trivia==
* Out of nineteen baby Pokémon, seven of them evolve into Pokémon belonging to the {{egg3|Fairy}} and seven others evolve into Pokémon that belong to the {{egg3|Human-Like}}.
* All baby Pokémon that were introduced in Generation II and evolve by friendship can evolve further using Evolution stones.
* Most baby Pokémon can learn {{m|Uproar}} via [[Move Tutor]], while their evolved forms cannot.
* {{an|May}}, [[James]], and {{an|Brock}} got their baby Pokémon ({{TP|May|Munchlax}}, {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}}, and {{TP|Brock|Bonsly}} respectively) following the pattern of premiering in a movie and then being captured by one of the main characters. In all cases, the premiered Pokémon is not the same character as the one caught, just the same species. In some cases, this may be a result of the writers deciding a Pokémon works well with the group after they are shown together. Munchlax came after ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and Mime Jr. and Bonsly came after ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]].'' All of these Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation IV]].
* In {{g|X and Y}}, baby Pokémon caught in the wild are guaranteed to have three random [[IV]]s of 31 due to their inclusion in the Undiscovered Egg Group.

User talk:Nescientist/Project Trace

Suic12-: /* Non-transferable moves */

==Template format==
A couple issues that arose previously with [[User:TehPerson/learnlist/prevgen8|<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>User:TehPerson/learnlist/prevgen8<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>]] that I realized no one ever thought to communicate:
* The Generation columns are bolded twice over. Once with the header <code>!</code> and once with <code><nowiki>'''</nowiki></code>.
* The links to the past learnset subsections are probably not needed. They could even be confusing if a Pokemon learns a move in more than one way. If people can just get to the page, they can search it themselves.
* Also, the sorting has a couple issues. First off, the numbers just don't sort right. Second, for Pokemon like the Alolan examples, it doesn't work at all. This is probably due to hiding some of the Generation columns, a problem I've had in the past. (I believe the page just thinks the sort button for the second column applies to the second column it has data for, even if it's hidden.) That's one reason it's better to just "erase" the column/cell entirely if you can.

There was also a suggestion that the Generation columns could just be turned into checkmarks ({{template|yes}}). The column "header" could link to the page instead.

Also, I'll note that #ifexpr is generally a parser we want to avoid using a lot. It'd probably be fine for the past pages, but on the main species page, it could potentially be a problem.

I'm also curious: when you're doing Gen III transfers, how are you going to deal with the fact that individual moves don't actually have a physical/special attribute? Just use the one appropriate to the type and call it good?

[[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 00:34, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

:I know the questions were not directed to me, but I think I can add a thing or two. For generations I to III, I believe the idea is to keep the pattern we already have at the learnset subpages for these generations, without putting the damage category. We also would only have to consider this when transferring from gen I to II or from gen II to I, as you can never transfer ''to'' gen III.
:About checkmarks vs generation numbers, I have a preference for the generation numbers. They are at least just as easy to read, and they follow the same idea we have for listing game abbreviations in move tutor learnsets. And personally, I also think they look more interesting than plain checkmarks, but that's just me.
:Another unrelated thing: we should probably have a small list of related talk page sections and user subpages linked in the project page. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 01:27, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
::Oh, right, I was just trying to figure out where it might be an issue (thinking that maybe Gen I/II wasn't applicable since you could trade back and forth) and I completely forgot Gen III just wasn't connected.
::That's a good point about the tutor templates on the past pages, I didn't catch that. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:43, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
:::The project page is just pure basics at this point. I'll be updating it (basically to a more useful v1.0) soon, and I'll take care that includes referencing. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 18:12, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
::::The project page is now updated, and we should keep it updated.
::::Who's working on the other points? Can you please agree/decide on which templates are being worked on, and add them to the WIP section on the project page? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 09:33, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

==Event moves==
Between Suic and myself, we've had some ideas what to do with special/event moves (see [[User talk:Nescientist#Transfer-only moves|here]]). We basically believe that those should be differentiated, most specifically that
# Non-transferable moves shouldn't be listed at all (see WIP on these [[#Non-transferable moves|below]])
# Moves only available by events should probably be listed as tranferable, but should indicate as such. This is because it's gone for good if you don't have access to the event-only move; my exact wording/condition/definition was "Can I get it with {{tt|brand-new copies|and Pokewalkers}} (or would I need to have done/received something in the past{{tt|*|or use an active online service that might be shut down in the future, if such exists}})?"
# If a move is available by events in only some generations (such as we're in GenVIII, the moves is event-exclusive in GenVII but TM in GenVI), something should be done about it (waiting for ideas/discussion for these two; it might depend on how common that is)
# Being event-exclusive in a generation should not exclude that move from that generation's transfer-only list
Are there objections? Is there anything missing? Are there any good/better ideas on how exactly to deal with them? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 09:33, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

==Result data==
I think the initial movelist at TehPerson's userpages (linked on the project page) should be improved in the following ways:
# It currently includes data from a public database; it should contain more comprehensive data
# It should incorporate whatever the result of [[#Event moves|the above section is]] and use the [[#Template format|finalized template]]
# It shoudln't bold/italicize {{cat|moves that deal direct damage}} and {{m|Hidden Power}}
# It incorrectly lists moves that aren't transferable, we'd need to research what exactly those are (see [[#Non-transferable moves|below]])
# They're not complete, obviously
I'm working on these (for the first one, I'll try to pull Bulbapedia data), and plan to update the userpages accordingly. Automating what needs to be bolded will probably be easier than italicizing, which might have to be done manually. Or maybe I'll need a list of future move types per species or something!?

Are there objections? Is this missing something? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 09:33, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

==Transfer==
I think we should really mainspace [[User:Tiddlywinks#Transfer]].

As can be seen on [[User talk:Tiddlywinks#Transfer|its talk page]], there's not much that's missing before mainspacing. I believe we should mainspace this now; it'll make a great link target from the transfer-only section's header, for example. Also, as mentioned [[#Non-trasferable moves|below]], it could be used to display what cannot be transfered. Who's willing to get this done? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 09:33, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

==Non-transferable moves==
Someone may have to do some research here, but I believe those include at least
# HM moves (possibly not all of them, and not in all generations?)
# For Generation I (Time Capsule two-way transfer), any move introduced in Generation II
# Possibly some field moves in some generations
# Event-only moves learned in Generation I or II for later generations (because GB cartridge Pokémon cannot be transfered to GenIII+ games)
An exhaustive list/table would be great. I'm not sure, maybe this would go to the transfer page as well, possibly together with species that cannot be transferred? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 09:33, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
:Having such a list would be very useful. I think I started looking into this a while ago, I'll see if I can help to get this going. But if the list turns out to be too large, maybe we should include only the general rules and the special cases in the transfer page, instead of the whole list. Let's see.
:Something else I just thought about is how we should deal with moves that cannot be used in Generation VIII. Should we even include them as transfer-only moves? If so, we should definitely have them marked as unusable. I'm also not sure if these moves even have power, PP and accuracy listed in Sword and Shield, but if they don't it would probably be better to list them as N/A rather than the values from generation VII (assuming we decide to include them at all).

[[File:Forest Pokémon anime.png|thumb|250px|[[Wild Pokémon]] in a forest in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
'''Forests''' are secluded, wooded areas that can be found in the [[Pokémon world]]. They tend to have {{t|Grass}}-, {{t|Flying}}- and {{type|Bug}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, although Pokémon based on animals that live in the forest, such as {{p|Pikachu}}, may be found in them. In each [[core series]] [[region]], there is at least one forest, with major forests including [[Viridian Forest]] in [[Kanto]], [[Ilex Forest]] in [[Johto]], [[Petalburg Woods]] in [[Hoenn]], [[Eterna Forest]] in [[Sinnoh]], [[Pinwheel Forest]] in [[Unova]], [[Santalune Forest]] in [[Kalos]], [[Lush Jungle]] in [[Alola]], and [[Glimwood Tangle]] in [[Galar]]. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the first version-exclusive forest, known as [[White Forest]], was shown.

Forests are in almost every region of the Pokémon world, although they are not as common as [[cave]]s. In the core series Pokémon games, they are mostly mazes which usually have at least one tree that {{m|Cut}} can be used on. Besides the aforementioned Cut trees, there are many other different types of trees that can be found in forests, such as one type which can be {{m|Headbutt}}ed, which results in Pokémon, such as {{p|Spinarak}}, appearing. Others can have [[Honey]] slathered on them, which attracts Pokémon, such as {{p|Munchlax}}, to them. The final two types are found in [[Johto]] and [[Sinnoh]]-based games, respectively.

Suic12-: /* Template format */

==Template format==
A couple issues that arose previously with {{template|User:TehPerson/learnlist/prevgen8}} that I realized no one ever thought to communicate:
* The Generation columns are bolded twice over. Once with the header <code>!</code> and once with <code><nowiki>'''</nowiki></code>.
* The links to the past learnset subsections are probably not needed. They could even be confusing if a Pokemon learns a move in more than one way. If people can just get to the page, they can search it themselves.
* Also, the sorting has a couple issues. First off, the numbers just don't sort right. Second, for Pokemon like the Alolan examples, it doesn't work at all. This is probably due to hiding some of the Generation columns, a problem I've had in the past. (I believe the page just thinks the sort button for the second column applies to the second column it has data for, even if it's hidden.) That's one reason it's better to just "erase" the column/cell entirely if you can.

There was also a suggestion that the Generation columns could just be turned into checkmarks ({{template|yes}}). The column "header" could link to the page instead.

Also, I'll note that #ifexpr is generally a parser we want to avoid using a lot. It'd probably be fine for the past pages, but on the main species page, it could potentially be a problem.

I'm also curious: when you're doing Gen III transfers, how are you going to deal with the fact that individual moves don't actually have a physical/special attribute? Just use the one appropriate to the type and call it good?

[[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 00:34, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

:I know the questions were not directed to me, but I think I can add a thing or two. For generations I to III, I believe the idea is to keep the pattern we already have at the learnset subpages for these generations, without putting the damage category. We also would only have to consider this when transferring from gen I to II or from gen II to I, as you can never transfer ''to'' gen III.
:About checkmarks vs generation numbers, I have a preference for the generation numbers. They are at least just as easy to read, and they follow the same idea we have for listing game abbreviations in move tutor learnsets. And personally, I also think they look more interesting than plain checkmarks, but that's just me.
:Another unrelated thing: we should probably have a small list of related talk page sections and user subpages linked in the project page. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 01:27, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Suic12-: /* Generation differences subpages */

==Update==
Could someone please add a column for the Mega Evolution ability? And [[Template:Ability/entry|here]] as well? [[User:TheOriginalOne|'''オリ''']][[User talk:TheOriginalOne|'''ジ''']][[Special:Contributions/TheOriginalOne|'''ナル''']] TheOriginalOne 13:31, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
:We're going to update all of the templates around the same time so we can keep track of everything more efficiently. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 20:22, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

== Generation differences subpages ==

Shouldn't this template be divided into generations? Because as it is now, it's super confusing and messy, and handling accuracy by adding a note at [[Template:Ability/foot|the footer]] of each ability table in the articles makes it very confusing to determine what's true or not for a given game.

With this in mind, I came up with something like the [[Template:Learnlist/levelh|learnsets template]] for showing 100% accurate tables for each generation, which would be much better and orderly. Something like this could go in the main article for a given ability:

{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityHeaderGen|Stench|Poison|Poison}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|044|Gloom|Grass|Poison|Chlorophyll|None|Stench}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|088|Grimer|Poison|Poison|Stench|Sticky Hold|Poison Touch}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|089|Muk|Poison|Poison|Stench|Sticky Hold|Poison Touch}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|434|Stunky|Poison|Dark|Stench|Aftermath|Keen Eye}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|435|Skuntank|Poison|Dark|Stench|Aftermath|Keen Eye}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|568|Trubbish|Poison|Poison|Stench|Sticky Hold|Aftermath}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|569|Garbodor|Poison|Poison|Stench|Weak Armor|Aftermath}}
|}
|}

And this other can go in the subpages (this one can be used for both Gen III and IV):

{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityHeaderGen34|Shell Armor|Water|Water|4}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|090|Shellder|Water|Water|Shell Armor|Skill Link}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|091|Cloyster|Water|Ice|Shell Armor|Skill Link}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|098|Krabby|Water|Water|Hyper Cutter|Shell Armor}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|099|Kingler|Water|Water|Hyper Cutter|Shell Armor}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|131|Lapras|Water|Ice|Water Absorb|Shell Armor}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|138|Omanyte|Rock|Water|Swift Swim|Shell Armor}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|139|Omastar|Rock|Water|Swift Swim|Shell Armor}}
|}
|}

Take into account that this is just a proof of concept, so of course there'll be things that need to be corrected. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 01:19, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
:That's actually an interesting idea. I hadn't given this specific issue much thought, but now that I think about it, it can get pretty confusing.
:I do think we should tackle this somehow, and having separete tables (when necessary) may just work. However, I don't think there would be enough content for each single subpage, and many of them would end up being redundant.
:I would suggest we instead have all tables on the ability page itself, but only show the most recent one by default and have the others hidden under a hide/show button (it's not really necessary to hide them, I just think it would keep the page easier to read). We would also only need to add more tables if there was enough change between generatios to justify it. For example, if no Pokémon had changes to their abilities from one generation to the next (or if all that happened was that Pokémon from the new generation now have the ability), or if they only had a hidden ability added from gen IV to gen V, a single table could easily cover these two generations.

I don't think making many tables is neccessery, there aren't that many changes for it. I put all the special cases I am aware of above and think this table is much more intuitive than what is it currently.--'''[[User:Team Rocket Grunt|Rocket Grunt]] ([[User talk:Team Rocket Grunt|Report To Me]])''' 16:35, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
:The problem is not simply that an ability stops being available to a certain Pokémon. New generations often added new possible abilities to many Pokémon without removing those that were already available. Most of these times the abilities added were introduced in the new generation in question, but some of them are eventually from an earlier generation. There are many other like Miltank that received a new ability from generation III to IV. The overall problem is that it's not immediately evident when one of the abilities of a Pokémon shouldn't be considered for a certain generation. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 23:25, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

:::Yeah, I saw that your example could solve it, but it kind of bothered me that a large amount of Pokémon would need these notes. But I guess that's fine, any solution would have it's advantages and disadvantages, and yours is more compact in the end.
:::What I still think should be different, though, is the table itself. We could easily keep it pretty much the same as what we have now, with a "first" and "second" ability column, but each cell would be able to have more than just one line when necessary, and the abilities in each line would be able to have a note that indicated in which generations it is available.

'''Trest''' (Japanese: '''ダグデ''' ''Dagde''), often referred to as '''the Mayor''', is a key [[non-player character]] in {{Pokémon XD}}. He lives and works in [[Phenac City]], in [[Orre]]. He has assumed the job of Mayor from [[Mayor Es Cade|Es Cade]].

The {{player}}'s first trip to Phenac City is to inform the Mayor of [[Cipher]]'s upcoming attack. His home is found empty except for a woman who is apparently his secretary. She will not allow the player to explore the house until she is distracted by playing the [[Music Disc]] on the stereo in the room. Upstairs is the [[Mayor's Note]] lying on the floor next to the Mayor's bed; it is a warning to [[Justy]] of Cipher's plan, suddenly interrupted by the "secretary", who is actually {{tc|Cipher Peon}} [[Exinn]].

Following the defeat of [[Snattle]] and the other Cipher agents in the city, the player acquires the {{or|Elevator Key}} to reach [[Prestige Precept Center|Pre Gym]]'s basement. There, the Mayor is finally found, being held hostage with the rest of the citizens. If the player visits him at his home following his rescue, they will be rewarded with an [[Exp. Share]].

Trest often patronizes [[Realgam Tower]] and will send the player an e-mail when it reopens during the game.

'''Dr. Kaminko''' (Japanese: '''カミンコ博士''' ''Dr. Kaminko'') is an eccentric scientist who lives in [[Kaminko's House|a run-down mansion]] located in western [[Orre]] and who makes his first and only appearance to date in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], in which he plays a supporting role of moderate importance.

The doctor specializes in generally useless but sometimes viable inventions. One such invention is the [[Robo Kyogre]], which takes the player to [[Citadark Isle]] after a bit of tinkering done by [[Makan]], and which is, apparently, the only one of them to serve any useful purpose. His other inventions range from being somewhat pointless to potentially harmful, although his eager assistant [[Chobin]] idolizes Dr. Kaminko and enshrines his inventions in a video that may be watched in the foyer of the doctor's house, and despite fully knowing their ill effects. Dr. Kaminko's House possesses a foreboding atmosphere, a reflection of his lack of concern for his surroundings and, perhaps, for the well-being of those who use his inventions, many of which seem deliberately designed to lead to the ruin of the user's health or finances. His workroom is rather cluttered and his home is fairly isolated from the rest of Orre, marking him as a sort of recluse with little contact with the outside world.

When focusing on some new invention, Dr. Kaminko becomes entirely oblivious to his surroundings and the goings-on of the outside world, and appears to prefer to work alone with his ideas, for his only aide, [[Chobin]] is never actually seen to assist him in inventing anything. During the development of the [[Robo Groudon]], he was denied access to the workroom, which was presumably also the case with the doctor's other inventions.

His house also contains [[Jovi]]'s Diary, which expresses the thoughts of the player's younger sister throughout the game. Her diary also hints about a secret room in the [[Pokémon HQ Lab]], which may refer to the one in which the [[Master Ball]] is stored.

Dr. Kaminko's inventions have been marketed throughout [[Orre]], albeit only with limited success due to their unpractical nature and potentially-harmful side-effects, which may be observed in their users over time. Those that have bought his inventions appear to have done so without knowledge of the invention's intended use, or rather the lack thereof. A man in [[Agate Village]] who has purchased a pair of 'unhealthy sandals' did so as he was told that they were a great invention, presumably by Chobin himself, and it may be observed that his health grows progressively worse thereafter. Another man in [[Pyrite Town]] believes himself to have been conned after he bought several 'Poké Poles', which, as their name implies, are poles painted in the same color as a {{i|Poké Ball}}, and which have no visible purpose other than, as Chobin guesses, to spread confusion as to their purpose.

[[Makan]] is often seen at Dr. Kaminko's house, and the two are shown to be longtime friends, indicating that the doctor may not have been such a recluse in the past as he is at the present, though also showing the limited extent of his present social circle. [[Beluh]], however, has a vastly different opinion of him, and, if the player does not reveal who he is, she will presume the player is here to market one of Dr. Kaminko's inventions and will ask that he leave, revealing that the doctor and his inventions are not well received by Orre at large, or at least by its more revered denizens. Beluh also initiates a sidequest in which the player must remove a set of faulty translators invented by Dr. Kaminko which render their wearers mute instead, further revealing her already-evident dislike of him.

Despite his scatterbrained demeanor, Dr. Kaminko is actually aware and possibly proud of the fact that his inventions are often useless. After the apparent "failure" of the Robo Groudon, Michael can find the doctor musing in his study, asking himself if he should give up "tricking people" with his creations, and wondering if he needs new direction in his life (before conceiving and shortly thereafter dismissing the idea of Robo Trainers). However, after [[Greevil]] is defeated, Dr. Kaminko is once again back to his old ways, exclaiming that the Robo Pokémon are "the ultimate" and that one "is playing a key role in bringing Cipher down".

==Basement==

Dr. Kaminko's basement is full of items and interesting objects. In the center is a generator with no other purpose than to show how Dr. Kaminko gets his power and energy. When entered from the left of his house, there are multiple isolated platforms suspended from the ceiling. In addition to that, the player may grab hold of ropes on the platforms and be mechanically carried to another one. On the platforms, to signify that a method of transportation is available, colored circles mark the "ports" from which one can travel to and from. The player may only be lifted by the ropes if a rope with a hook at the end is dangling in front of the circle to its correspondingly colored circle. This allows access to all platforms with a little bit of creativity. On the platforms are items such as [[Full Restore|Full Restores]] and [[Potion|Potions]]. Most notably is Jovi's Diary, which very subtly implies where the Master Ball is located.

If the basement is accessed from the right side of the house, the player can enter an elevator to arrive below the suspended platforms. There are items there, as well. There are an abundance of scrapped and unsold inventions.

==Trivia==
* Dr. Kaminko's inventions resemble {{wp|chindōgu}}, the Japanese art of inventing every day gadgets that seem to solve a problem but in actual fact cause more problems or social embarrassment.

Z-Move

2020-07-07T00:32:22Z

Suic12-: /* In battle */

[[File:Sun Moon Z-Move artwork.png|thumb|240px|Artwork for Z-Moves]]

A '''Z-Move''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|Ｚ|ゼット}}ワザ''' ''Z-Move'') is a special type of [[move]] exclusive to the [[Generation VII]] games {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}, in which a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and their Pokémon's wishes combine to unleash an attack comprising the full power of both. These moves are very powerful, but they can only be used once per {{pkmn|battle}}, unless {{DL|Rotom Pokédex|Z-Rotom Power}} is used.

==History==
The origins of Z-Power are largely shrouded in mystery. However, information by [[Professor Kukui]] indicates that Z-Power may be related to the energy produced by [[Ultra Wormhole]]s. [[Wicke]] also speculates that [[Lusamine]]'s losing consciousness after fusing with {{p|Nihilego}} in [[Ultra Space]] may have been due to the Z-Power surrounding her. Alolan legends found in the Malie Library also indicate that {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|SUS}}/{{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|MUM}} gifted the Tapunium Z to the [[guardian deities]] after fighting against them. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the [[Ultra Recon Squad]] reveal that the Z-Power that surrounds the user and their Pokémon when using a Z-Move as well as the aura surrounding [[Totem Pokémon]] are a result of {{p|Necrozma}}'s light shining down on Alola long ago.

==Z-Moves==
There are three different kinds of Z-Moves: Z-Moves which can be used by any {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, with one Z-Move for each of the 18 [[type]]s; status moves that have been turned into Z-Moves by one of the 18 type-specific Z-Crystals; and Z-Moves that can only be used by specific Pokémon. The Z-Move that a Pokémon can perform depends on the [[Z-Crystal]] it [[held item|holds]]. There are 18 different Z-Crystals that correspond to each of the 18 types, and several others that correspond to specific Pokémon. Z-Moves work by powering up one of the Pokémon's normal moves, so the Pokémon must also know an appropriate move. For the type-related Z-Crystals, the Pokémon must know a move of the same type as the Z-Crystal it is holding. For the Pokémon-specific Z-Crystals, the move required differs for each Pokémon.

A [[Z-Ring]] or [[Z-Power Ring]] is also required in order to perform Z-Moves. A Pokémon can only use a Z-Move if its Trainer is wearing a Z-Ring or Z-Power Ring and has the same Z-Crystal the Pokémon is holding. [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] and [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] Pokémon cannot use Z-Moves, even when holding an appropriate Z-Crystal (such as after {{m|Transform}}).

==Gameplay==
===In battle===
{{incomplete|section|needs=Are Z-Moves always obeyed?}}
When using a Z-Move in the games, a special cutscene plays, first showing the Trainer performing a certain pose, before shifting to the Pokémon surrounding itself with its Z-Power and executing the Z-Move. This cutscene cannot be deactivated, even if battle animations are turned off.

Z-Moves draw upon the {{PP}} of the Pokémon's original moves in order to execute, requiring and consuming PP upon use. When the Z-Move option is chosen in battle, a list of Z-Moves overlays the Pokémon's original list of moves, with each compatible move of the Pokémon's original moves overlain by a Z-Move option that draws upon that move.

Damaging Z-Moves derive their [[damage category|category]] ([[physical move|physical]] or [[special move|special]]) and [[power]] from the original move. For example, a {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}} based on {{m|Nuzzle}} (with a power of 20) will have a power of 100 and be a physical move, while one based on {{m|Thunderbolt}} (with a power of 90) will have a power of 175 and be a special move. If the Pokémon knows more than one compatible move, it will be able to choose among different versions of the Z-Move with different stats, with the instance that has the highest power sparkling. Damaging Z-Moves do not inherit any other properties from the original move, so have neutral [[priority]] and do not have the [[additional effect]]s of the base move.

Damaging Z-Moves bypass {{stat|accuracy}} checks to always hit, unless the opponent is in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}}.

Z-Moves based on [[status move]]s are enhanced versions of the original moves, having a Z- prefixed to the start of the status move's name. While they have the effects of the original status move, the user also receives a '''Z-Power effect''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|Ｚ|ゼット}}パワー{{tt|こうか|効果}}''' ''Z-Power effect''), which is executed before the move itself. For example, Z-{{m|Splash}} also boosts the user's {{stat|Attack}} by 3 stages, while Z-{{m|Parting Shot}} also restores the switch-in ally's HP by 100%. These effects are not affected by {{a|Contrary}}, {{a|Simple}}, or {{m|Heal Block}}.

Exclusive Z-Moves can be used only by specific {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and require a specific move to be upgraded. They have a fixed [[damage category|category]] and [[power]]. Exclusive Z-Moves can be used by a Pokémon {{m|transform}}ed into an appropriate species regardless of its original species, if it holds the corresponding Z-Crystal; however, if the Pokémon who the move is exclusive to is transformed, it cannot use its own species' exclusive Z-Move unless it is transformed into another Pokémon of the same species.

Damaging Z-Moves cannot be fully protected against by {{cat|protection moves}} (such as {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Spiky Shield}}), instead dealing 25% of the original damage. Status Z-Moves can be blocked by protection moves, but will apply their Z-Power effects regardless. Like any other move, Z-Moves can be redirected by effects such as {{m|Follow Me}} and {{a|Storm Drain}}.

Z-Moves may be used without regard to the effects of {{m|Taunt}}, {{m|Torment}}, {{m|Disable}}, {{m|Encore}}, {{m|Imprison}}, and {{m|Heal Block}}; however, the Pokémon never has an opportunity to select a Z-Move if it is forced to use {{m|Struggle}} (e.g. if it is affected by Taunt and only knows [[status move]]s). Even if the target of Z-{{m|Heal Pulse}} or Z-{{m|Floral Healing}} is affected by Heal Block, that Pokémon's HP is restored. Status Z-Moves can be used without regard to the effects of {{m|Gravity}}, but Gravity will still cause them to fail after applying their Z-Power effect (e.g. Z-Magnet Rise will raise the user's evasion but then fail).

Even if a status Z-Move fails, it still applies its Z-Power effect. Z-Moves are affected normally by {{m|Powder}} and [[weather]]. {{cat|Weather-changing moves}} turned into Z-Moves (except {{m|Defog}}) will disappear as usual during [[rain|heavy rain]], [[harsh sunlight|extremely harsh sunlight]], and [[strong winds]], but will apply their Z-Power effects regardless.

The types of damaging Z-Moves are unaffected by {{cat|Abilities that can modify move types|type-modifying Abilities}} (although status Z-Moves' types are). However, their types are affected by {{m|Ion Deluge}} (if the Z-Move would be Normal-type) and {{m|Electrify}}.

If a Pokémon uses a damaging Z-Move on a Pokémon with {{a|Cursed Body}}, that damaging Z-Move can be disabled (with no effect on the base move). However, if Cursed Body would disable a status Z-Move (such as Z-{{m|Nature Power}}), the base status move will be disabled.

====Power====
With the exceptions of {{m|Mega Drain}} (120), {{m|Weather Ball}} (160), {{m|Hex}} (160), {{m|Gear Grind}} (180), {{m|V-create}} (220), {{m|Flying Press}} (170), {{m|Core Enforcer}} (140), and [[One-hit KO moves]] (180), the powers of the type-specific damaging Z-Moves follow the following conversion table for base moves that have fixed powers. {{m|Struggle}} has a power of 1 as a Z-Move in the game data, which does not follow this table, but it is not possible to turn Struggle into a Z-Move.

==Z-Power effects of status moves==
When a status move is upgraded into a Z-Move, it may also gain a Z-Power effect in addition to its regular effect. Additionally, when used as a Z-Move, all {{cat|moves that call other moves}} convert the called move into its corresponding Z-Move, although [[status move]]s called this way do not get their Z-Power effect. Moves stolen by Z-{{m|Snatch}}, reflected by Z-{{m|Magic Coat}}, or instructed by Z-{{m|Instruct}} are not turned into Z-Moves.

==In the TCG==
In the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], a mechanic similar to Z-Moves, introduced in the {{tcg|Sun & Moon}} expansion, is a type of attack called {{GX}} {{tcg|attack|attacks}}. Known exclusively by {{tcg|Pokémon-GX|Pokémon}}{{GX}}, they are distinguished by a "{{GX}}" suffix following the attack's name, such as in "Pulverizing Pancake{{GX}}".

Like Z-Moves, {{GX}} attacks have very powerful effects compared to those of other attacks. However, each player may use no more than one {{GX}} attack per game. {{GX}} markers are used to denote whether a player has used his or her {{GX}} attack yet. When a player uses a {{GX}} attack, his or her {{GX}} marker is flipped over to expose its reverse side.

==In the anime==
[[File:Ash Gigavolt Havoc pose.png|thumb|250px|Ash performing the pose for Gigavolt Havoc]]
Similar to the {{pkmn|games}}, Z-Moves are powerful moves that can be executed by a Pokémon that knows an appropriate move which corresponds to the type of Z-Crystal on the Trainer's Z-Ring. Z-Moves were first featured in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' in episode ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', where {{an|Kiawe}} and his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}} used {{m|Inferno Overdrive}}, with the help of Kiawe's [[Z-Ring]] and [[Firium Z]], to defeat [[Zipp]]'s {{p|Yungoos}}, [[Tupp]]'s {{p|Salandit}}, and [[Rapp]]'s {{p|Zubat}}.

According to {{an|Professor Kukui}} in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', only Trainers who are successful in the [[island challenge]] can use Z-Moves. As seen with [[Ash's Rowlet]] in ''[[SM011|Young Kiawe Had a Farm!]]'', Z-Moves drain a lot of the Pokémon's energy, but with adequate training, the Pokémon can reduce the amount of energy necessary to execute a Z-Move. In a similar manner, in ''[[SM040|Balloons, Brionne, and Belligerence!]]'', [[Lana's Popplio]] failed its first attempt at {{m|Hydro Vortex}} since it was not strong enough to execute the move. In ''[[SM105|Showdown on Poni Island!]]'', [[Gladion's Lycanroc]], having endured [[Ash's Lycanroc]]'s {{m|Splintered Stormshards}}, was able to take advantage of its opponent's fatigue by finishing it with a Z-Move of its own.

Due to their vast blast radius and power, they can usually be used to wipe out many targets at once, like in a [[Battle Royal]]. Typically, bipedal or semi-bipedal Pokémon with arm-like forelimbs tend to mimic the poses of their Trainer during the activation. On the other hand, quadrupeds and the like, whose forelimbs show no manual dexterity, tend to stay still and wait until the activation is completed before acting.

As revealed in ''[[SM076|A Battle Hand-Off!]]'', a Pokémon using a Z-Move can receive Z-Power from multiple other people and Pokémon provided they do the Z-Move pose as well. In ''[[SM103|Heart of Fire! Heart of Stone!]]'', {{an|Brock}} helped [[Olivia]] and her {{p|Lycanroc}} use a variation of {{m|Continental Crush}} he named (Japanese: '''ワールズエンドフォーリンラブ''' ''World's End Fall in Love'').

{{Ash}} first performed a Z-Move in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'', with his {{AP|Pikachu}} using {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}} thanks to the Z-Ring and [[Electrium Z]] Ash had received from {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Koko}}. After using the attack, however, the Electrium Z shattered, preventing Ash from using the move again until he obtained a new Electrium Z in ''[[SM010|Trial and Tribulation!]]''.

In the Japanese, {{pmin|South Korea|Korean}}, {{pmin|Greater China|Mandarin Chinese}}, and {{pmin|Thailand|Thai}} versions, when a Z-Move is used, the name of the specific move is shown, like in the games; however, the names are removed in most other [[dub]]s.

==In the manga==
===In the movie adaptations===
{{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}} performed the {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}} Z-Move in [[ICYR1]] during a {{pkmn|battle}} against a {{pkmn2|Totem}} {{p|Kommo-o}}.

{{OBP|Marshadow|M20}} and {{OBP|Ken|ICYR}} performed the {{m|Soul-Stealing 7-Star Strike}} Z-Move in [[ICYR2]] in order to defeat [[Borosue]].

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Z-Moves first appeared in the {{chap|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}. [[Olivia]] had her {{p|Lycanroc}} use {{m|Continental Crush}} while [[Nanu]] had his {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Persian}} use {{m|Black Hole Eclipse}} during an {{wp|exhibition game|exhibition match}} against each other. [[Hala]] stepped in to stop both Pokémon before either could successfully use their moves.

During his battle against [[Gladion]] in an [[Iki Town]] festival tournament, {{adv|Sun}} inadvertently used a Z-Move with his {{adv|Dollar}}, allowing it to defeat [[Gladion's Type: Null]] with an incomplete version of {{m|Inferno Overdrive}}. Due to not knowing how to use Z-Moves at the time, Sun received Z-Power from a nearby [[Ultra Wormhole]] instead of building it up with a pose. Later, he was taught how to properly perform Z-Moves by [[Kiawe]] in order to battle Gladion a second time. With his newly-obtained Z-Ring, Sun and Dollar successfully used Inferno Overdrive properly.

At [[Mount Lanakila]], [[Ilima]], [[Lana]], Kiawe, [[Mallow]], [[Sophocles]], [[Molayne]], [[Mina]], and [[Hapu]] were attacked by a group of {{tc|Aether Foundation Employee}}s and their [[Ultra Beast]]s. With the power of {{m|Breakneck Blitz}}, {{m|Hydro Vortex}}, Inferno Overdrive, {{m|Bloom Doom}}, {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}}, {{m|Corkscrew Crash}}, and {{m|Tectonic Rage}}, the Ultra Beasts were defeated one by one.

==Trivia==
* According to a book in [[Malie City|Malie Library]], the ''Z'' in ''Z-Move'' is short for ''zenith'' (Japanese: '''ゼンリョク/{{tt|全力|ぜんりょく}}''', ''zenryoku''<ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/sun_moon/fight/160801_01.html トレーナーとポケモンが一体となって放つゼンリョクの攻撃「Ｚワザ」｜『ポケットモンスターサン・ムーン』公式サイト]</ref> "full power/force").
** Internal data in the games also refer to Z-Move as ''ZenryokuWaza'', which literally means "full-powered move".
* Some cutscenes when using a Z-Move bear similarities to the [[Appeal#Spectacular Talent|cutscenes]] used in [[Pokémon Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectaculars]] from {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

A '''Key Stone''' (Japanese: '''キーストーン''' ''Key Stone'') is a [[Key Item]] introduced in [[Generation VI]], used to allow a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} holding a [[Mega Stone]] to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]]. It cannot be obtained in [[Generation VIII]].

When the Key Stone is activated, the Pokémon's corresponding Mega Stone reacts to it, starting the Mega Evolution process. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s typically keep their Key Stone inside a personal accessory, such as a [[Mega Ring]], [[Mega Bracelet]], [[Z-Ring]], or [[Z-Power Ring]].

==In the core series games==
===Player characters===
====Pokémon X and Y====
{{main|Mega Ring}}
In {{g|X and Y}}, the player characters hold their Key Stones in a [[Mega Ring]], a large black bracelet that {{ga|Calem}} and {{ga|Serena}} wear on their left wrist.

The possession of one Mega Ring is offered to the player and each of their friends, who have to pick the most deserving out of their group. The selection is quickly whittled down to two people: the player and {{ga|Serena}} or {{ga|Calem}} (depending on the gender of the player). Upon defeating their rival, the player must obtain the {{badge|Rumble}} at the [[Shalour Gym]] and then go to the top of the [[Tower of Mastery]] to receive the ring from [[Korrina]].

After the player has beaten their rival in [[Kiloude City]], [[Professor Sycamore]] will upgrade their Mega Ring at the [[Anistar City|Anistar Sundial]] by having the player touch the sundial. Once upgraded, the player can then find hidden Mega Stones around Kalos from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

====Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire====
{{main|Mega Bracelet}}
In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the player characters hold their Key Stones in a [[Mega Bracelet]], a large white bracelet that {{ga|Brendan}} and {{ga|May}} wear on their left wrist. {{Steven}} gives the Mega Bracelet to the player on [[Southern Island]] after {{p|Latios}}{{sup/6|OR}} or {{p|Latias}}{{sup/6|AS}}, holding its respective Mega Stone, joins the player.

The player character also wears a special Mega Bracelet during {{pkmn|Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectaculars}}, Brendan's being a '''Mega Cuff''', a black band with a circle of large, connected red diamonds affixed to it, with the Key Stone embedded in the band, while May's is a '''Mega Charm''', a chain of cream bows with the Key Stone embedded into a pink heart charm.

{{tc|Secret Base Trainer}} avatars of player characters that have a Mega Bracelet will use it in battle if possible.

====Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon====
In [[Generation VII]], after becoming the {{pkmn|Champion}}, the player receives a '''Key Stone''' from [[Sina]] and [[Dexio]] at [[Ancient Poni Path]]{{sup/7|SM}}/[[Poni Plains]]{{sup/7|USUM}} after defeating Dexio. They hold their Key Stone in their [[Z-Ring]]{{sup/7|SM}} or [[Z-Power Ring]]{{sup/7|USUM}}.

====Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the player receives a '''Key Stone''' from {{ga|Blue}} at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] in [[Pallet Town]] after earning seven [[Badge]]s and meeting {{ga|Trace}} in front of the [[Viridian Gym]]. They do not hold it in any accessory and it does not show up on the player's models.

===Non-player characters===
Many non-player characters keep their Key Stones in special items, many of which differ from the items that the player can use.

====Pokémon X and Y====
* [[Lysandre]]'s '''Mega Ring''' (Japanese: '''メガリング''' ''Mega Ring'') takes the form of a silver ring that he wears on the middle finger of his left hand.
* [[Korrina]] uses a '''Mega Glove''' (Japanese: '''メガグローブ''' ''Mega Glove''), which is a white glove she wears on her left hand.
* [[Diantha]] uses a '''Mega Charm''' (Japanese: '''メガチャーム''' ''Mega Charm''), which is a gold pendant she wears on her neck.

====Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire====
* [[Steven Stone]] uses a '''Mega Stickpin''' (Japanese: '''メガラペルピン''' ''Mega Lapel Pin''), which is a pin he wears on the lapel of his jacket.
* [[Maxie]] uses '''Mega Glasses''' (Japanese: '''メガメガネ''' ''Mega Glasses''), which is a pair of glasses he wears.
* [[Archie]] uses a '''Mega Anchor''' (Japanese: '''メガイカリ''' ''Mega Anchor''), which is a golden, anchor-shaped necklace he wears.
* [[Lisia]] uses a '''Mega Tiara''' (Japanese: '''メガティアラ''' ''Mega Tiara''), which is a hair clip she wears.
* [[Wally]] uses a '''Mega Pendant''' (Japanese: '''メガペンダント''' ''Mega Pendant''), which is a pendant he wears.
* [[Zinnia]] uses a '''Mega Anklet''' (Japanese: '''メガアンクレット''' ''Mega Anklet''), which wraps around her right ankle.
* {{FB|Magma Admin|Courtney}} and {{FB|Aqua Admin|Matt}} use Mega Rings during the [[Delta Episode]], which are not seen on their artwork.
* [[Sidney]], [[Phoebe]], [[Glacia]], and [[Drake]] use generic Key Stones after the Delta Episode, which are not seen on their artwork.

====Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon====
* [[Sina]] and [[Dexio]] use white '''Mega Rings''' (Japanese: '''メガリング''' ''Mega Ring'') that they each wear around their left wrist.
* Some opponents at the [[Battle Tree]] and [[Battle Royal Dome]] use generic Key Stones, which do not show up on their models.

====Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
* All opponents that can Mega Evolve their Pokémon use generic Key Stones, which do not show up on their models.

Soon after, it disappeared along with the chaos created by Rayquaza's {{m|Draco Meteor}}. The stone reappeared in ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', along with Mega Rayquaza. It was eventually taken away by Lysandre's submarine to be studied at the [[Lysandre Labs]].

In ''[[XY068|Garchomp's Mega Bond!]]'', it was revealed that Professor Sycamore had found a Key Stone along with a piece of [[Garchompite]]. In the same episode, it was revealed that [[Meyer|Blaziken Mask]] keeps his Key Stone embedded in his belt buckle.

====History====
[[File:Mega Ring Adventures.png|230px|thumb|A Mega Ring in Pokémon Adventures]]
====={{chap|X & Y}}=====
{{adv|X}} was given a [[Mega Ring]] with a Key Stone inside from [[Gurkinn]] as a child. With it, he can Mega Evolve his [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Li'l Kanga]], [[Salamè]], [[Élec]], {{p|Gengar|Garma}}, and {{p|Pinsir|Rute}}, into {{me|Kangaskhan}}, Mega Charizard X, Mega Manectric, Mega Gengar, and Mega Pinsir, respectively.

Those taught by Gurkinn, the Mega Evolution guru, tend to use Mega Gloves. This includes [[Korrina]], three unnamed students, and Gurkinn himself. Gurkinn stated that he gave Key Stones to 16 people through a Mega Evolution successor ceremony, with X being the sole exception. He later gave his Key Stone to {{adv|Y}}, thus making her a successor as well.

At Lysandre Café in [[Lumiose City]], Diantha shields Y and her friends from Lysandre's Pokémon by using her Mega Charm to Mega Evolve her {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} into Mega Gardevoir.

Lysandre later obtains a Mega Ring from Malva outfitted with a Key Stone stolen from Korrina.

At the [[Lost Hotel]], {{adv|Y}} is made a Mega Evolution successor by Gurkinn. She is given a Mega Ring outfitted with the Key Stone from Gurkinn's Mega Glove. With it, she can Mega Evolve her {{p|Absol|Solsol}} into Mega Absol.

{{adv|Blue}} is later revealed to be a successor as well, keeping his Key Stone on a ring. When not in use, Blue wears the ring around his neck as a pendant. With it, he can Mega Evolve his {{TP|Blue|Charizard}} into Mega Charizard Y.

[[Blaine]] later appears at the [[Pokémon Village]], revealed to have reunited with {{adv|Mewtwo}}. He had gained a Key Stone sometime prior and placed it in his cane, using it to Mega Evolve Mewtwo into either Mega Mewtwo Y or Mega Mewtwo X.

====={{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}=====
{{adv|Ruby}}, {{adv|Sapphire}}, and {{adv|Emerald}} acquired [[Mega Bracelet]]s from [[Ultima]] and {{Steven}} in preparation for another disaster coming to Hoenn. In ''[[PAORAS02|Omega Alpha Adventure 2]]'', Ruby successfully used his Mega Bracelet and {{p|Latios}}'s Latiosite to Mega Evolve the Eon Pokémon and [[Soaring in the sky|soar]] with it to the [[Sky Pillar]].

Many members of the [[Draconid people]] possess Key Stones, such as Zinnia, [[Renza]], [[Jinga]], [[Tomatoma]], and the [[Elder (Meteor Village)|Meteor Village Elder]]. While Zinnia keeps her Key Stone in her Mega Anklet, Renza, Jinga, and Tomatoma keep theirs in arm bands, similar to Zinnia's anklet, while the Elder keeps hers in a walking cane. When battling Ruby and Sapphire, Zinnia wears a second Mega Anklet that originally belonged to [[Aster]].

In ''[[PAORAS06|Omega Alpha Adventure 6]]'', {{Steven}} Mega Evolved his {{TP|Steven|Metagross}} into Mega Metagross with his Mega Stickpin. In ''[[PAORAS20|Omega Alpha Adventure 20]]'', he reveals that he is a Mega Evolution successor, having obtained the Key Stone from Gurkinn. He later gives Zinnia a jar of Key Stones belonging to Aster that were taken from the [[Embedded Tower]].

In ''[[PAORAS11|Omega Alpha Adventure 11]]'', [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]] used their Mega Glasses and Mega Anchor to Mega Evolve their {{p|Camerupt}} and {{p|Sharpedo}} respectively. After Maxie and Archie disappeared from exhausting the energy keeping their bodies stable, [[Blaise]] and {{FB|Aqua Admin|Amber}} took their Key Stones and Mega-Evolving Pokémon.

When battling against Maxie and Archie, {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Green}} used rings with patterns similar to the Mega Bracelets to Mega Evolve [[Saur]] and [[Blasty]] respectively to battle them. Though their rings resemble the one owned by Blue, it is unknown where they received them.

In ''[[PAORAS20|Omega Alpha Adventure 20]]'', {{adv|Giovanni}} reveals he has a Key Stone placed in the "R" of his chest pocket. With it, he can Mega Evolve his {{TP|Giovanni|Beedrill}}.

In ''[[PAORAS21|Omega Alpha Adventure 21]]'', Ruby used his Mega Cuff to Mega Evolve {{p|Diancie}} for a {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Appeal]].

==Trivia==
[[File:Bag unknown Sprite.png|thumb]]
* The Key Stone items used by NPCs [[List of unobtainable items|exist within the data]] of [[Pokémon X and Y]] and [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. They have a sprite (a white question mark), but cannot be obtained in normal gameplay. They were programmed into the game because if not, NPCs wouldn't be able to Mega Evolve their Pokémon.
* In [[Generation VI]], before battle with a non-player character that can use Mega Evolution, the Key Stone accessory is often shown off. For Trainers that use VS sprites (such as [[Korrina]] and [[Diantha]]), often the Key Stone is clearly visible in the zoomed-in VS sprite. For Trainers that use 3D models (such as [[Lysandre]] and [[Zinnia]]), the camera often starts by focusing on the Key Stone before zooming out to show the full body. Some Trainers, such as {{ga|Calem}}/{{ga|Serena}} and {{ga|Brendan}}/{{ga|May}}, have the Key Stone accessory visible on their 3D model, but it is not focused on. However, other Trainers, such as {{FB|Magma Admin|Courtney}}, {{FB|Aqua Admin|Matt}} and the [[Hoenn]] [[Elite Four]], do not have visible Key Stones at all. {{tc|Secret Base Trainer}}s have no visible indication of possessing a Key Stone.

A '''Cipher Peon''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|シャドー戦闘員|シャドーせんとういん}}''' ''Shadow Combatant'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation III]] games, appearing in {{g|Colosseum}} and {{Pokémon XD}}. They are [[Cipher]]'s equivalent of the Grunt class used by other [[villainous team]]s.

In Colosseum, male Peons wear blue outfits, while females wear purple. In XD, both genders wear white and black outfits with a red scarf. Some higher-ranking male Peons are much more muscular than typical male Peons.

Cipher Peons are unique among other Trainer classes in that they are not often visible on the field, instead dropping down from the ceiling to ambush the player and take them by surprise. Like many of [[Orre]]'s Trainer classes, they do not specialize in any particular strategy or Pokémon, but they often have a [[Shadow Pokémon]].

Along with [[Team Snagem]]'s members, they are the only low-ranked members of an evil organization given individual names.

A '''Mega Stone''' (Japanese: '''メガストーン''' ''Mega Stone'') is a type of [[held item]] introduced in [[Pokémon X and Y]] that allows {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]]. According to [[Professor Sycamore]], Mega Stones are the results of [[Evolution stone]]s being irradiated by the power of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Xerneas}}{{sup/6|X}} or {{p|Yveltal}}{{sup/6|Y}}.

In [[Generation VIII]], the Mega Stones are unobtainable, as Mega Evolution is no longer available.

==In the core series games==
===Mechanics===
During a {{pkmn|battle}}, a {{pkmn|Trainer}} can use their [[Key Stone]] (held in the [[Mega Ring]]{{sup/6|XY}}, [[Mega Bracelet]]{{sup/6|ORAS}}, [[Z-Ring]]{{sup/7|SM}}, or [[Z-Power Ring]]{{sup/7|USUM}} for the player character) to Mega Evolve a Pokémon that holds its corresponding Mega Stone before it attacks. Pokémon only remain Mega Evolved during battles and [[Pokémon Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectaculars]], and will revert to their original state once the battle has ended or if they [[fainting|faint]]. Every Pokémon that can undergo Mega Evolution has a corresponding Mega Stone that is named after it, except for {{p|Rayquaza}}, which instead needs to know the move {{m|Dragon Ascent}} to Mega Evolve. Some Pokémon have multiple different Mega Stones for their species.

Mega Stones cannot be transferred to or from the correct holder during battle: {{m|Thief}} and {{m|Covet}} do not take the Mega Stone, {{m|Knock Off}} does not remove the Mega Stone or cause extra damage, {{m|Trick}} and {{m|Switcheroo}} fail, {{m|Fling}} and {{m|Bestow}} fail, and {{a|Symbiosis}} does not activate. {{m|Embargo}} and {{m|Magic Room}} also cannot prevent the use of Mega Stones to Mega Evolve Pokémon. Mega Stones are not consumed upon use, but only one Pokémon can Mega Evolve per battle.

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], due to held items not being a mechanic, a Pokémon can Mega Evolve simply if the Trainer has a Key Stone and a compatible Mega Stone in their [[Bag]]. If a Pokémon has multiple Mega Evolutions (as it is with {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Mewtwo}}), and the Trainer has both Mega Stones, then options to Mega Evolve into either can be selected from the battle screen.

===Acquistion===
====Generation VI====
In {{g|X and Y}}, all Mega Stones not directly given or sold to the player can only be found between 8 and 8:59 p.m. after [[Professor Sycamore]] has upgraded the player's Mega Ring to detect them. These Mega Stones do not appear as item balls in the overworld; rather, they appear as sparkles on the ground.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, Mega Stones on the ground appear as sparkles, like in Pokémon X and Y. Many Mega Stones that can be found in locations the player can already access will not appear until the player defeats or captures {{p|Groudon|Primal Groudon}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{p|Kyogre|Primal Kyogre}}{{sup/6|AS}}. Some can only be obtained by meeting certain requirements, such as clearing all the [[Rank (Contest)|Master Ranks]] in the {{pkmn|Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectaculars}} and then defeating [[Lisia]] in one of the Master Rank Contests in order to receive the Lucarionite from {{ga|Chaz}} or receiving the Garchompite from [[Aarune]] after achieving Platinum Rank in the [[Secret Base|Super-Secret Base]] by collecting 1,000 Flags.

The Mega Stone for {{p|Blaziken}}, the Blazikenite, cannot be found through normal gameplay in Pokémon X and Y. However, it can be obtained via special distributions and trading. The Mega Stone for {{p|Diancie}}, the Diancite, also cannot be obtained through normal gameplay in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]; instead, the stone can be obtained by having a Diancie in the party and activating an in-game event that results in the player being given a Diancite.

Pokémon holding Mega Stones introduced in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire (except Latiasite and Latiosite) cannot be traded to Pokémon X and Y.

====Generation VII====
In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, only Mega Stones for Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number (Sun and Moon)|Alola Pokédex]] and for the fully-evolved [[Kanto]] {{pkmn2|starter}}s are available through normal gameplay. [[Dexio]] gives the player the Alakazite and a Key Stone after defeating him on [[Ancient Poni Path]] after becoming {{pkmn|Champion}}. Most Mega Stones can be purchased at the [[Battle Tree]] for 64 [[Battle Point]]s. {{ga|Red}} will give the player all Mega Stones associated with the starter Pokémon of the Kanto region after being defeated in a Single Challenge at the Battle Tree. The remaining Mega Stones have been distributed as [[event item]]s; by participating in [[Pokémon Global Link]] online competitions or with universal codes provided on the official Pokémon website. Currently, all Mega Stone codes have expired; thus, the only current way to obtain these Mega Stones in {{g|Sun and Moon}} is to trade them from {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}.

In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, all Mega Stones are available for purchase at the Battle Tree, except for [[Diancite]], which is given to the player at [[Olivia]]'s {{DL|Konikoni City|jewelry store}} in [[Konikoni City]] for showing a {{tc|Collector}} a {{p|Diancie}}, and the Kanto Starter Mega Stones, which are received from Red or Blue at the Battle Tree. Dexio also gives the player Alakazite in these games, but he is found at the entrance to [[Poni Meadow]] in [[Poni Plains]].

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the player receives the Kanto starter Mega Stones along with a Key Stone from Blue at [[Professor Oak|his grandfather]]'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|laboratory]] after obtaining seven [[Badge]]s. {{p|Mewtwo}}'s Mega Stones can be obtained from {{ga|Green}} in [[Cerulean Cave]] after defeating her. The remaining Kanto Pokémon Mega Stones can be purchased from a {{tc|Poké Maniac}} at [[Indigo Plateau]] after becoming Champion for {{pdollar}}30,000 each.

=====Universal codes for event-exclusive Mega Stones=====
These codes were usable in all regions of [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], but expired at 8:59 {{wp|Japan Standard Time|JST}} on November 1, 2017.

==In the anime==
[[File:Siebold Blastoise.png|thumb|250px|[[Siebold]]'s {{p|Blastoise}} wearing its [[Blastoisinite]]]]
===In the main series===
In ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'', Pokémon wear Mega Stones using equipment similar to that which their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s use to hold their [[Key Stone]]s. The equipment disappears while the Pokémon is in its Mega Evolved state. In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', Mega Stones appear to be merged with the body of their holders and only appear whenever the Mega Evolution process is triggered.

====In ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''====
Mega Stones were first mentioned in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', where {{an|Professor Sycamore}} told {{Ash}} that a "special stone" is required to trigger Mega Evolution, referring to Mega Stones.

Mega Stones made their physical debut in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]''. The Mega Stones seen were [[Alain]]'s [[Charizardite X]], [[Astrid]]'s [[Absolite]], [[Remo]]'s [[Garchompite]], [[Siebold]]'s [[Blastoisinite]], and a [[Gyaradosite]] found by Alain from a set of ancient ruins. In addition, a [[Lucarionite]] was seen in a painting featuring the first-ever Mega Evolution, which was shown to Alain by Professor Sycamore in a flashback. Astrid's Absolite made a brief reappearance during the opening credits of ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]''.

[[Diantha's Gardevoir]]'s [[Gardevoirite]] debuted in ''[[XY028|The Bonds of Evolution!]]''. The Embrace Pokémon was shown carrying its Mega Stone in a necklace around its neck.

In ''[[XY031|The Cave of Trials!]]'', a Lucarionite was found by {{an|Korrina}} in a cave near [[Geosenge Town]]. After battling a {{p|Blaziken}} guarding the Lucarionite—which was afterward revealed to belong to Korrina's grandfather, [[Gurkinn]]—Korrina obtained the Mega Stone and used it to Mega Evolve her {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}}. The uncut Lucarionite was later set in an armband by [[McGinty]], allowing Lucario to wear the Mega Stone.

In ''[[XY032|The Aura Storm!]]'', Gurkinn was revealed to own a Lucarionite. Much like Korrina's Lucario, Gurkinn's Lucario also wears its Lucarionite in an armband on its left wrist.

In ''[[XY034|The Bonds of Mega Evolution!]]'', a [[Mawilite]] was worn by [[Mabel]]'s {{p|Mawile}} in a piece of jewelry placed at the foot of its head jaws.

In ''[[XY043|Origins of Mega Evolution!]]'', a Lucarionite was featured in a story told by Gurkinn depicting the first known Mega Evolution.

In ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', {{Steven}}'s {{Shiny}} {{TP|Steven|Metagross}} wore a [[Metagrossite]] as a large bracelet on its right foreleg. An [[Ampharosite]] was also seen in a flashback in the same episode, having been found by [[Lysandre]] before Alain could get his hands on it.

In ''[[XY068|Garchomp's Mega Bond!]]'', Professor Sycamore's Garchomp wears a Garchompite as a choker around her neck.

Several different Mega Stones appeared in ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]''. The Mega Stones seen included a [[Venusaurite]] attached to the tree on a {{p|Venusaur}}'s back; an [[Alakazite]] tied onto one of {{p|Alakazam}}'s spoons; and [[Malva]]'s [[Houndoominite]], which is attached to a collar her {{p|Houndoom}} wears around its neck.

In ''[[XY096|A Giga Battle with Mega Results!]]'', a [[Nurse Joy]] with an {{TP|Nurse Joy|Audino}} found an [[Audinite]]. She later used it and Professor Sycamore's Key Stone to Mega Evolve Audino.

In ''[[XY122|A Real Icebreaker!]]'', an [[Abomasite]] was worn by [[Wulfric]]'s {{p|Abomasnow}}. The Frost Tree Pokémon wears its Mega Stone on its chest, revealing it only when it is about to Mega Evolve.

In ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', a [[Charizardite Y]] was worn by {{an|Trevor}}'s {{TP|Trevor|Charizard}} in a ring around its tail.

In ''[[XY126|Valuable Experience for All!]]'', a [[Sceptilite]] was worn by [[Sawyer]]'s {{TP|Sawyer|Sceptile}} on a bandanna that is tied around its neck.

In ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'', [[Kimia]]'s Shiny Gardevoir has a Gardevoirite in a necklace around its neck, which looks exactly like the necklace that Diantha's Gardevoir has.

In ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', a [[Gyaradosite]] was worn by [[Lysandre]]'s Shiny {{p|Gyarados}} around its neck in a holder similar to the one Alain's Charizard keeps its Charizardite X in. It is unknown whether this is the same Gyaradosite that Alain found in ''Mega Evolution Special I'', or a different one.

====In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''====
In ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', [[Brock's Steelix]] and [[Misty's Gyarados]] wore a [[Steelixite]] and a [[Gyaradosite]], respectively. They were used in their respective battles.

In ''[[SM089|The Prism Between Light and Darkness!]]'', [[Team Rocket]] Elite Officer [[Gozu]] owned an [[Aggronite]].

In ''[[SM130|Battling Besties!]]'', a [[Kangaskhanite]] was used by [[Ilima]] during his [[Manalo Conference]] battle.

===In Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Mega Stone PO.png|thumb|250px|Charizardite X (left) and a Key Stone (right) in Pokémon Origins]]
In ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]'', [[Mr. Fuji]] gave {{OBP|Red|Origins}} a Mega Stone and a Key Stone, although he did not tell Red what they truly were, merely saying that he would find out soon enough. In ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', during Red's battle against {{p|Mewtwo}}, one of the stones was revealed to be a Charizardite X that came from Kalos. Together, it and the Key Stone triggered [[Red's Charizard]]'s Mega Evolution, allowing it to Mega Evolve into Mega Charizard X and weaken Mewtwo enough to be caught by Red.
{{-}}

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon - The Legend of the Dragon King manga===
In [[Pokémon - The Legend of the Dragon King]], which is centered around Mega Evolution, several characters have Mega Stones. {{OBP|Akira|LDK}} owns both a Charizardite X and a Charizardite Y, {{OBP|Koji|LDK}} owns a Garchompite, and [[Taichi]] has an Ampharosite.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Kangaskhanite Adventures.png|thumb|250px|A [[Kangaskhanite]] in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===={{chap|X & Y}}====
Due to Mega Evolution being a relatively unknown phenomenon, the Mega Stone concept gradually developed. {{adv|Trevor}} was not aware of the Mega Stone that {{adv|X}}'s [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Kanga]] possessed, until [[PS552]] when he found it in Kanga's pouch. In ''[[PAXY08|What Does Charmander Do When It Dozes?]]'', Trevor and X proved that Kanga's Mega Stone had no effect when taken out of Kanga's pouch and placed with X's [[Marisso|Chespin]]. In ''[[PAXY13|Overthrowing a Tyrunt]]'', Trevor and X became aware of different Mega Stones and their names when the {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}} they were fighting mentioned the Kangaskanite and Manectite explicitly. Trevor and X combined their skills to defeat the grunt in battle and steal a list of Mega Stones that he had supposedly compiled.

* [[Korrina]]'s {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}} possesses a Lucarionite, allowing it to Mega Evolve into Mega Lucario.
* [[Gurkinn]]'s {{p|Heracross}} wears its Heracronite around its horn.
* [[Diantha]]'s {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} wears its Gardevoirite around its head.
* [[Lysandre]]'s Gyarados possesses a Gyaradosite, which a Team Flare grunt successfully dispatched to [[Malva]].
* X's [[Élec]] possesses a Manectite, which is kept in a patch of fur on his chest. Élec was motivated to seek its Mega Stone after witnessing Kanga and Li'l Kanga Mega Evolve during a battle in the [[Lumiose Gym|Prism Tower]].
* X's {{p|Gengar|Garma}} possesses a Gengarite, which is kept in a patch of fur under its jaw.
* {{adv|Tierno}} and {{adv|Shauna}} found multiple Mega Stones while looking for a Pinsirite and Absolite for X's {{p|Pinsir|Rute}} and Y's {{p|Absol|Solsol}}. After some searching, they successfully found the correct Mega Stones and gave them to X and Y.
* X's [[Salamè]] possesses a Charizardite X, which he keeps on the tip of his tail, hidden inside of tail's flame. {{adv|Blue}}'s {{TP|Blue|Charizard}} possesses a Charizardite Y, which is also kept hidden inside of the flame on the tip of his tail. Both Charizard combined in their respective Mega Evolutions to defeat [[Xerosic]], who claimed that Team Flare found no proof that a Charizard Mega Evolves, let alone into two different forms.
* [[Blaine]] possesses both a Mewtwonite Y and Mewtwonite X, which he can use to Mega Evolve {{adv|Mewtwo}} into either of its Mega Evolutions.

===={{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}====
The Mega Stones appear or are mentioned in the following rounds:

* In ''[[PAORAS01|Omega Alpha Adventure 1]]'', {{adv|Eon duo|Latios}} revealed that he and Latias have obtained their respective Mega Stones.
* In ''[[PAORAS02|Omega Alpha Adventure 2]]'', it was revealed that {{Steven}} had already found the Mega Stones for [[Chic|Blaziken]], [[Mumu|Swampert]], and {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}} for {{adv|Sapphire}}, {{adv|Ruby}}, and {{adv|Emerald}}, respectively.
* In ''[[PAORAS03|Omega Alpha Adventure 3]]'', [[Zinnia]] used her Salamencite to Mega Evolve her {{TP|Zinnia|Salamence}} during a battle against Ruby. Using Latios's Latiosite, Ruby Mega Evolved the Eon Pokémon into Mega Latios and defeated Mega Salamence.
* In ''[[PAORAS11|Omega Alpha Adventure 11]]'', {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Green}} were revealed to have respectively obtained the Venusaurite and Blastoisinite, sometime before following [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]], who had obtained the Cameruptite and Sharpedonite, respectively. The two pairs of Trainers used the Mega Stones with their respective Pokémon to battle each other.
* In ''[[PAORAS20|Omega Alpha Adventure 20]]'', {{adv|Giovanni}} was revealed to have obtained a Beedrillite, using it to Mega Evolve his {{TP|Giovanni|Beedrill}} as part of his explanation that the meteoroid threatening to destroy the world may be housing a Pokémon inside of it. The [[Meteor Village]] {{OBP|elder|Meteor Village}} later offered {{adv|Sapphire}} a Gardevoirite and Galladite, commenting how matching her Gallade and {{adv|Ruby}}'s Gardevoir are. Ruby and Sapphire later used these Mega Stones to Mega Evolve [[Rara]] and {{p|Gallade|Kirly}} during a brief battle against each other.
* In ''[[PAORAS21|Omega Alpha Adventure 21]]'', after destroying the [[Grand Meteor Delta]], Ruby has {{p|Hoopa}} find a Diancite for Diancie to use in the Pokémon Contest Spectacular, allowing Ruby to Mega Evolve Diancie for his and Sapphire's performance.

==Trivia==

* The design of the Mega Stones appears to be based on a common pattern found in the glass {{wp|marble (toy)|marble}} called a toothpaste or catseye marble.
* The Aggronite and Houndoominite are only obtainable in Pokémon Y, despite {{p|Aron}}, {{p|Houndour}}, and their evolutions being exclusive to [[Pokémon X and Y|Pokémon X]].
** Likewise, the Tyranitarite and Manectricite are only obtainable in Pokémon X, despite {{p|Larvitar}}, {{p|Electrike}}, and their evolutions being exclusive to Pokémon Y.
* Despite not being officially introduced until [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], the Latiosite and Latiasite exist in the coding of Pokémon X and Y, thus making them the only Mega Stones available in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire that can be transferred to X and Y.
* In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, it is explained that Mega Rayquaza does not require a Mega Stone due to its mikado organ working as a Mega Stone once it has consumed enough [[meteorite]]s.

Suic12-: If there is a better place in the article to put this, or a better way of saying it, anyone feel free to change it

{{Incomplete|2=needs more information on Rescue Team DX}}
{{redirect|Mega|{{adv|Crystal}}'s {{p|Meganium}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]], which is known as Mega in [[Chuang Yi]] translations|Megaree}}
[[File:Blaziken Mega Evolution.png|thumb|240px|Blaziken Mega Evolving into Mega Blaziken]]

'''Mega Evolution''' (Japanese: '''メガシンカ''' ''Mega Evolution'') is a temporary transformation affecting {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that was introduced in [[Generation VI]]. Mega-Evolved Pokémon are identified by having "Mega" in front of their name. Mega Evolution is not available in [[Generation VIII]] games.

There are 46 species of Pokémon that are capable of Mega Evolution, and there are 48 different Mega Evolutions.

==History==
[[Korrina]], the Gym Leader of [[Shalour City]], is said to know secrets about Mega Evolution. The [[Tower of Mastery]] is also related to Mega Evolution. According to a [[Kalos]] legend, the first Pokémon to have been Mega Evolved was a {{p|Lucario}}. However, according to [[Elder (Meteor Village)|Zinnia's grandmother]] in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], {{p|Rayquaza}} was the first Pokémon to Mega Evolve; Mega Evolution was first discovered by the first meeting of humanity and Rayquaza. [[Professor Sycamore]] theorizes that Mega Evolution can only be achieved if there is a strong bond between a Trainer and the Pokémon.

==In the games==
[[File:Tretta Mega Evolution icon.png|thumb|150px|The Mega Evolution sigil, as seen in {{g|Tretta}}]]
In order to Mega Evolve, most Pokémon must be holding their appropriate [[Mega Stone]] and the Trainer must have a [[Key Stone]]. Only {{p|Rayquaza}} does not need a Mega Stone to Mega Evolve; instead, it must know the move {{m|Dragon Ascent}}.

===In battle===
In any battle, each Trainer may Mega Evolve a single Pokémon once. Mega Evolution is essentially a free action a Pokémon may make in addition to its normal move, but if a Pokémon will not use a move, it cannot Mega Evolve. Mega Evolution occurs [[priority|before]] most actions except [[recall|switching]]. A Mega-Evolved Pokémon will only revert to its original state if it [[fainting|faints]] or the battle ends; if it is switched out, it will remain Mega Evolved.

A Pokémon cannot Mega Evolve if it is being held in the airborne phase of {{m|Sky Drop}}. Neither volatile nor non-volatile [[status condition]]s such as paralysis, sleep, and infatuation will have any effect over a Pokémon's ability to Mega Evolve, even if they result in the Pokémon not being able to move that turn.

Mega Stones are not affected by most moves or Abilities. If they would move a Mega Stone to or from a Pokémon that could use it to Mega Evolve, the moves {{m|Bestow}}, {{m|Covet}}, {{m|Fling}}, {{m|Thief}}, {{m|Trick}}, and {{m|Switcheroo}} will fail and the Abilities {{a|Magician}}, {{a|Pickpocket}} and {{a|Symbiosis}} will not activate. The move {{m|Knock Off}} cannot remove a Mega Stone from a Pokémon that can use it to Mega Evolve, and Knock Off's power will not be increased since it cannot remove the item. The moves {{m|Embargo}} and {{m|Magic Room}} and the Ability {{a|Klutz}} will not prevent a Pokémon from using its respective Mega Stone to Mega Evolve.

Changes in a Pokémon's [[Ability]] will take place immediately. A {{p|Sharpedo}} that normally has {{a|Speed Boost}} will not gain a boost in Speed at the end of the turn it Mega Evolves, but if it uses a biting move such as {{m|Crunch}} that turn, it will be boosted by {{a|Strong Jaw}}, its Ability as Mega Sharpedo.

====Generation VI====
In [[Generation VI]], performing Mega Evolution will not alter the turn order. A Pokémon with a lower Speed than their opponent will still go after them on the one turn the Mega Evolution occurs, even if their Mega Evolution increases Speed and would otherwise cause them to go first. The opposite is also true for Pokémon who lose Speed from Mega Evolution, such as {{p|Garchomp}}. However, turn order will be determined normally on every turn afterwards.

Otherwise, stat changes and type changes due to Mega Evolution take effect immediately and damage calculation proceeds as usual. For example, a Pokémon whose Mega Evolution has a lower base Defense stat takes greater damage from physical moves on the turn it Mega Evolves. Likewise, the move {{m|Gyro Ball}} considers the Pokémon's Speed stat after Mega Evolution for damage calculation, not before.

Likewise, even if a Pokémon only has an Ability such as {{a|Prankster}} before Mega Evolution, appropriate moves will gain priority. If a Pokémon gains Prankster upon Mega Evolution, appropriate moves will not gain priority.

When the player Mega Evolves a Pokémon for the first time since the save file is accessed, a longer animation than usual will play, showing the player activating the Mega Evolution with his or her [[Mega Bracelet]]. On subsequent uses of Mega Evolution, a shorter animation will play, showing only the Pokémon as it Mega Evolves.

====Generation VII====
In [[Generation VII]], a Pokémon's Speed after Mega Evolution is used to determine turn order, not its Speed before. Likewise, if a Pokémon only has an Ability such as {{a|Prankster}} before Mega Evolution, appropriate moves will not gain priority. If a Pokémon gains Prankster upon Mega Evolution, appropriate moves will gain priority.

{{p|Rayquaza}} cannot Mega Evolve if it holds a [[Z-Crystal]].

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], as the [[Held item]] mechanic is not implemented, the player simply needs to have the compatible Mega Stone in their bag to access a Pokémon's Mega Evolution. The player can also manually pick which form Charizard or Mewtwo can become from the move menu.

===Outside of battle===
[[File:Mega Evolution Contest Spectacular.png|thumb|220px|A {{p|Gardevoir}} Mega Evolving in a Contest Spectacular]]
In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Mega Evolution can also occur during the {{pkmn|Contest#Secondary judging|Talent Round}} of [[Pokémon Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectaculars]]. If the participating Pokémon is holding its corresponding Mega Stone when its [[appeal]] causes the audience's excitement to reach its peak, it will Mega Evolve and perform a {{DL|Appeal|Spectacular Talent}}. The Pokémon will remain Mega Evolved for the remainder of the Talent Round.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, when summoned by the [[Eon Flute]], {{p|Latios}}{{sup/6|OR}} or {{p|Latias}}{{sup/6|AS}} will Mega Evolve before the player mounts it to [[soaring in the sky|soar in the sky]]. It will Mega Evolve even if it is not holding its corresponding Mega Stone, since the Eon Pokémon is summoned even if it is no longer in the player's game.
{{-}}

==Effects==
A Mega-Evolved Pokémon has different [[base stats]], with the exception of {{stat|HP}}, and can have a different [[Ability]] and [[type]] from its non-Mega-Evolved form. Every Mega-Evolved Pokémon (except for Mega Alakazam in Generation VI) has a base stat total 100 points higher than that of its base form.

==In other games==
===[[Pokémon Masters]]===
[[File:Masters Mega Evolution.png|thumb|150px|Metagross Mega Evolving in Pokémon Masters]]
Certain [[sync pair]]s, including some Trainers that do not have Key Stones in the [[core series]], Mega Evolve their Pokémon while performing their [[sync move]]. After Mega Evolving, their sync partner will benefit from increased stats and sometimes additional [[move]]s and [[passive skill]]s for the rest of the battle. The following sync pairs can Mega Evolve:

* [[Agatha]] and {{TP|Agatha|Gengar}}
* [[Bugsy]] and {{p|Beedrill}}
* [[Karen]] and {{p|Houndoom}}
* {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}} and {{p|Pinsir}}
* [[Korrina]] and {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}}
* {{ga|Blue}} and {{p|Pidgeot}}
* [[Glacia]] and {{p|Glalie}}
* [[Cynthia]] and {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}}
* [[Steven Stone|Steven]] and {{TP|Steven|Metagross}}
* {{OBP|Red|game}} and {{p|Charizard}} (Mega Charizard X)
* [[Sabrina]] and [[Alakazam]]
* [[Wally]] and [[Gallade]]

Although [[Zinnia]] holds a [[Key Stone]], her sync partner {{p|Rayquaza}} does not Mega Evolve with its sync move.

===[[Pokémon Picross]]===
Once a player purchases a Mega Pencil from [[Professor Tetra]] for 500 Picrites, puzzles for Mega Evolutions can be solved. Furthermore, murals can be solved one tile at a time to display {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}'s Primal Reversions.

Only one Mega Evolution can be set at one time, and they cannot be brought alongside their normal forms. Their skills are higher ranked than their normal counterpart, and they can be used on larger puzzles.

===[[Pokémon Rumble World]]===
The player gains the ability to Mega Evolve their Pokémon after completing the challenge "Raid of the Mighty General", then receiving the Special Stone Shop and a Mega Key from the rewards section of the ordinary shop. [[Mega Stone]]s for currently owned Pokémon can be bought and immediately attached to its corresponding Pokémon using the Special Stone Shop. The first Mega Stone of the player's choice is free (unless either the [[Red Orb|Red]] or [[Blue Orb]] is chosen instead) and every one after it costs 5 Poké Diamonds. During battle, Mega Evolution can performed by tapping the Mega Evolution button using a Pokémon equipped with a Mega Stone in battle. Mega Evolution can be used again on any Pokémon in the same battle, unlike in the main games.

Mega-Evolved Pokémon revert after a completed trip, or when they are defeated or switched out. Mega Evolving will send out a shockwave that damages enemy Pokémon. This shockwave is capable of defeating and tipping over opposing Pokémon. Additionally, it also resets any negative status conditions or status changes the Pokémon had before Mega Evolving.

===[[Pokémon Shuffle]]===
{{main|List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number#Mega Evolution|List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number → Mega Evolution}}
Before a Pokémon's Mega Evolution can be used in Pokémon Shuffle, its respective [[Mega Stone]] must be obtained (or in {{p|Rayquaza}}'s case, the [[Meteorite]]), typically either by defeating its Mega-Evolved form in a {{pkmn|Trainer}} battle at the end of each {{DL|Pokémon Shuffle|Stages|Main Stage Area}} or as a prize for completing a [[Competitive Stage]] or reaching a certain point in an [[Escalation Battle]].

The Pokémon placed in the first position (furthest to the left) when selecting {{DL|Pokémon Shuffle|Support Pokémon}} will Mega Evolve after the player fills the Mega Gauge by matching the Pokémon being Mega Evolved or matching Pokémon with the Mega Boost(+) [[Skill]]s who are of the same [[type]] as the Pokémon being Mega Evolved. The size of the Mega Gauge depends on the Pokémon being Mega Evolved, with each Pokémon requiring different numbers of icons to be matched to fill its gauge. The [[Mega Effects]] for each Mega form vary between Pokémon, replacing the Pokémon's Skill for the remainder of the battle.

===[[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]]===
[[File:Mega Evolution ingame PSMD.png|thumb|left|250px|Mega Evolution in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]]
[[File:Berserk PSMD.png|thumb|250px|Mega Alakazam in Berserk mode]]
Mega Evolution allows Pokémon to become more powerful, attack multiple enemies, and break down walls. To achieve Mega Evolution, the player must find an [[Emera#List of emeras|Awakening Emera]] in a Dungeon. These [[Emera]]s can be attached to a Looplet of a Pokémon that can Mega Evolve, causing it to Mega Evolve immediately. A Looplet attached with an Awakening emera will have a rainbow glow [[File:MDBag Looplet 3 VI Sprite.png]]. Should it be given to {{p|Mewtwo}} or {{p|Charizard}}, their Mega Evolution will be chosen randomly.

A bar will appear above the Mega-Evolved Pokémon after it transforms and will slowly start to fill up. As long as the bar is present, the Mega-Evolved Pokémon will keep their form even when moving to the next floor. Once the bar is filled, the Mega-Evolved Pokémon will go into {{DL|Status conditions in the Mystery Dungeon series|Miscellaneous status conditions|Berserk mode}}. In Berserk mode, the Pokémon will move around and use a powerful attack on any Pokémon surrounding it, friend and foe alike. This will go away after a while, and the Pokémon will revert to normal. When Mega Evolved, its regular attack will get a huge boost in power and range, destroy walls, and reveal purple sparkling spots on the floor which can be picked up for an item.

Attaching an Awakening Emera to a Pokémon that cannot Mega Evolve increases its stats by a lot and give it different boosts. Pokémon that cannot Mega Evolve with an Awakening Emera attached will not go into Berserk mode.

Awakening Emeras are hard to find and appear randomly in dungeons; like other Emeras, they will disappear if they are not reached in time.
===[[Pokkén Tournament]]===
{{p|Lucario}}, {{p|Garchomp}}, {{p|Gardevoir}}, {{p|Gengar}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Blaziken}}, {{p|Sceptile}}, {{p|Scizor}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Mewtwo}}, and [[Shadow Mewtwo]] are able to Mega Evolve through Synergy Burst, with Charizard and both of the Mewtwo Mega Evolving into their X forms. Mega Evolution can be triggered whenever a Pokémon capable of it has its Synergy Gauge filled up to the max during a battle. The Mega-Evolved Pokémon will revert to its regular form once it has used up all of its [[Synergy]] power.

In addition, every time when Shadow Mewtwo is fought against in the game's story mode, it will Mega Evolve before the battle begins and stay in this state for the entire fight.

On the [[Dragon's Nest]] battle stage, Mega {{p|Rayquaza}} appears in the form of both an enormous statue alongside the battle arena and a drawing on the ground of the battle arena. On the [[Old Ferrum Town (Winter)]] battle stage, Mega {{p|Swampert}} appears in the form of a giant snow sculpture. Mega Rayquaza itself is also a Support Pokémon available as part of the Pokkén Tournament DX Battle Pack.

==In the anime==
[[File:Blaziken Mask Mega Blaziken.png|250px|thumb|Mega Blaziken in the anime]]
===In the main series===
Multiple Mega Evolutions have been featured in the {{pkmn|anime}}:

* The first Mega Evolution in the anime was featured in ''[[Mewtwo — Prologue to Awakening]]'', where {{OBP|Mewtwo|M16}} was shown to be capable of changing between its regular form and Mega Mewtwo Y, in which its speed was dramatically boosted, being capable of moving faster than the blink of an eye. The same Mewtwo also played a major role in ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'', once again demonstrating its Mega Evolution capabilities. Unlike in the {{pkmn|games}}, this Mewtwo seemed to be capable of Mega Evolving without the use of a [[Mega Stone]]. However, because the concept of Mega Evolution had not been announced at the time of the movie's release, this transformation remains unnamed in the movie. Some Japanese promotional material for the movie as well as its {{ma|Genesect and the Legend Awakened|manga adaptation}} referred to it as Mewtwo's ''Awakened Form'' (覚醒した姿).<ref>[http://wayback.archive.org/web/20130618180918/http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2013/06/130615_m02.html?a001=news ポケモン映画最新作『神速のゲノセクトミュウツー覚醒』へと続くオリジナルストーリーが、テレビで放送決定！]</ref>
* The first Mega Evolution in the main series was featured in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', where {{Ash}} saw a Mega {{p|Blaziken}}. In the [[XY002|next episode]], it was revealed to belong to a masked hero called the [[Meyer|Blaziken Mask]], saving Ash from a free fall from the [[Lumiose Gym|Prism Tower]]. It has since been seen helping Ash and {{ashfr}} on numerous occasions.
* A Mega {{p|Ampharos}} and a Mega {{p|Charizard}} X appeared as silhouettes in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'' while {{an|Professor Sycamore}} told Ash, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{an|Bonnie}} about the concept of Mega Evolution.
* In ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', a {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Alain]] was featured traveling across the [[Kalos]] [[region]] with his Mega {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X, challenging other Mega Evolution Trainers. During the episode, Alain battled [[Astrid]]'s Mega {{p|Absol}} and [[Remo]]'s Mega {{p|Garchomp}}, and was victorious in both battles. Later in the special, he even faced the [[Elite Four]] member [[Siebold]] and his Mega {{p|Blastoise}}, but the powerful {{type|Water}} Pokémon proved to be too much for Charizard, causing Alain to lose the battle.
* All known Mega Evolutions released at the time were also featured during the intro of the aforementioned special episode.
* [[Diantha]]'s Mega {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} first appeared in ''[[XY028|The Bonds of Evolution!]]'', using its Mega Evolution powers to break free from {{TRT}}'s binds.
* {{an|Korrina}} has a {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}} that can Mega Evolve, and so does her grandfather [[Gurkinn]], as shown in ''[[XY032|The Aura Storm!]]''. In ''[[XY043|Origins of Mega Evolution!]]'', it was shown in a flashback how one of Gurkinn's ancestors discovered a [[Key Stone]], while his Lucario discovered a [[Lucarionite]], leading to the first known Mega Evolution.
* In ''[[XY033|Calling from Beyond the Aura!]]'', Korrina told Ash and his friends about a Trainer she had once met who had used a Mega Ampharos.
* A Trainer named [[Mabel]] and her Mega {{p|Mawile}} appeared in ''[[XY034|The Bonds of Mega Evolution!]]''.
* {{an|Diancie}} Mega Evolved in ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]'' in order to protect the [[Allearth Forest]] from {{OBP|Yveltal|M17}} and restore the [[Diamond Domain]] by creating a new Heart Diamond. At the end of the movie, it was shown that a diamond Diancie had created and given to {{an|Bonnie}} earlier caused it to Mega Evolve, acting as a Key Stone.
* During the intro of ''Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction'', [[Wikstrom]] is seen Mega Evolving his {{p|Scizor}} in a battle against Diantha and her Mega Gardevoir.
* [[Steven Stone]]'s {{Shiny}} Mega {{TP|Steven|Metagross}} appeared in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', as well as Mega {{p|Rayquaza}}. Both reappeared in ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]''.
* The intro of the aforementioned special episode also featured all [[#Introduced in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|newly revealed Mega Evolutions]].
* A Mega {{p|Sableye}} appeared in [[XY051]] as part of ''[[Mega Evolution Pokédex Short|Mairin's Mega Evolution Journal]]''.
* At the end of ''Mega Evolution Special III'', Alain was seen battling a Trainer with a Mega {{p|Tyranitar}}.
* Professor Sycamore's Garchomp achieved Mega Evolution for the first time and Mega Evolved into a Mega Garchomp in ''[[XY068|Garchomp's Mega Bond!]]''.
* The {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, and {{Shiny}} Rayquaza that {{an|Hoopa}} summoned in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'' all Mega Evolved during the movie. Much like the Mewtwo from [[M16|the sixteenth movie]], they were able to Mega Evolve without a Key Stone or their respective Mega Stones.
* In ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'', Alain battled ten Mega-Evolved Pokémon and their Trainers in a row, including Mega {{p|Venusaur}}, Mega {{p|Alakazam}}, Mega {{p|Heracross}}, Mega Scizor, Mega Ampharos, Mega {{p|Aggron}}, and Mega {{p|Pinsir}}. The final Trainer of the row was the [[Elite Four]] member [[Malva]], who used a Mega {{p|Houndoom}}. At the end of the episode, Alain was also seen battling a Trainer with a Mega {{p|Banette}}.
* A Mega {{TP|Nurse Joy|Audino}} appeared in ''[[XY096|A Giga Battle with Mega Results!]]'', under the ownership of a [[Nurse Joy]].
* In ''[[XY122|A Real Icebreaker!]]'', [[Wulfric]] Mega Evolved his {{p|Abomasnow}} into Mega Abomasnow to fight against [[Ash's Greninja]] during their [[Gym]] battle.
* A Mega Alakazam, Mega {{p|Glalie}}, Mega {{p|Pidgeot}}, Mega {{p|Steelix}}, Shiny Mega {{p|Gengar}}, Shiny Mega Gardevoir, and several other Mega-Evolved Pokémon appeared in ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]''. With the exception of [[Kimia]]'s Shiny Mega Gardevoir, they were forcibly Mega Evolved by a special device known as Mega Wave, which was being used by [[Alva]] and his minions [[Levi]] and [[Cherie]]. A Mega Wave evolved Mega {{p|Heracross}} and Mega {{p|Pinsir}} were also loaned to {{TRT}}.
* A Mega {{TP|Trevor|Charizard}} Y owned by {{an|Trevor}} appeared in ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'' during his [[Lumiose Conference]] battle against Alain.
* A Mega {{TP|Sawyer|Sceptile}} owned by [[Sawyer]] appeared in ''[[XY126|Valuable Experience for All!]]'' during his quarterfinal battle in [[Lumiose Conference]] against {{an|Tierno}}.
* [[Lysandre]]'s {{Shiny}} Mega {{p|Gyarados}} debuted in ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', where it battled {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}} and Alain's Charizard. It managed to knock out four of Ash's Pokémon, but was finally defeated in ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]''.
* A Mega Gyarados appeared in a fantasy in ''[[SM033|Big Sky, Small Fry!]]'', where {{an|Lana}} joked about being able to catch one at [[Brooklet Hill]].
* [[Brock's Steelix]] and [[Misty's Gyarados]] Mega Evolved into Mega {{p|Steelix}} and Mega {{p|Gyarados}} in ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', while battling [[Kiawe's Turtonator]] and [[Ash's Pikachu]], respectively.
* [[Gozu]]'s {{p|Aggron}} Mega Evolved into Mega Aggron in ''[[SM089|The Prism Between Light and Darkness!]]'' to battle {{an|Professor Kukui}}'s {{p|Braviary}} and {{an|Faba}}'s {{p|Alakazam}} and {{p|Hypno}}.
* [[Ilima]]'s {{p|Kangaskhan}} Mega Evolved into Mega Kangaskhan in ''[[SM130|Battling Besties!]]'' to battle [[Guzma]]'s {{p|Scizor}}.

==In the manga==
[[File:X full Mega Evolution Adventures.png|250px|thumb|X's team achieving multiple Mega Evolutions at once in the Pokémon Adventures manga]]
[[File:Akira Mega Charizard X LDK.png|150px|thumb|left|Mega Charizard X in The Legend of the Dragon King manga]]

===In the Pokémon - The Legend of the Dragon King manga===
In [[Pokémon - The Legend of the Dragon King]], several main characters' Pokémon are capable of Mega Evolution, including {{OBP|Akira|LDK}}'s {{p|Charizard}}, {{OBP|Koji|LDK}}'s {{p|Garchomp}}, and [[Taichi]]'s {{p|Ampharos}}.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Mega Evolution was first presented in [[Pokémon Adventures]] in the {{chap|X & Y}}. At first, it was portrayed as a relatively unknown phenomenon, known only to [[Gurkinn]] and his Successors. Since then, it became apparent that [[Team Flare]] were also after the power of Mega Evolution, with one member even compiling a list of [[Mega Stones]] that they discovered. Simultaneous Mega Evolutions can also be accomplished by a Trainer, as long as they have a Key Stone for each Pokémon they are Mega Evolving. However, doing so will cause severe mental stress on the Trainer, and they will be unable to focus on anything other than a single target until the Mega Evolution is undone.
*When [[Team Flare]] members [[Aliana]] and [[Mable]] arrived in [[Vaniville Town]] in order to steal {{adv|X}}'s [[Mega Ring]], the commotion caused X's baby {{p|Kangaskhan}}, [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Li'l Kanga]], to react with X's Mega Ring and Mega Evolve into Mega Kangaskhan, easily defeating Aliana's {{p|Pyroar}} and Mable's {{p|Houndoom}}.
*When X and his friends were attacked by Team Flare in [[Santalune City]], [[Korrina]] arrived and Mega Evolved her {{p|Lucario}} into Mega Lucario to assist them.
*In [[Lysandre Café]], [[Diantha]] had her {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} Mega Evolve into Mega Gardevoir to make Lysandre back off from attacking {{adv|Trevor}}, {{adv|Shauna}}, and {{adv|Tierno}}.
*The Mega Evolutions of {{p|Aerodactyl}}, {{p|Aggron}}, {{p|Ampharos}}, {{p|Mawile}} and {{p|Garchomp}} made cameos when Gurkinn explained Mega Evolution to [[Emma|Essentia]] during her raid on the [[Tower of Mastery]]. In the subsequent chapter, Gurkinn Mega Evolved his {{p|Heracross}}.
*During Korrina's succession ceremony, three Successors demonstrated Mega Evolution to her by Mega Evolving their {{p|Medicham}}, {{p|Scizor}} and {{p|Alakazam}} respectively.
*While visiting [[Lumiose City]], X met an {{p|Electrike}}, which led him to a [[Manectite]], evolving into {{p|Manectric}} in the process. Later Manectric joins X's team, Mega Evolving into Mega Manectric while facing a {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}.
*During a battle against [[Team Flare]], Gurkinn's {{p|Gengar}} protected X from [[Celosia]]'s {{p|Aegislash}}. It helped battle against Team Flare to stop them from capturing {{p|Xerneas}} while in tree form. It was later given it to X, at which point he nicknamed it Garma. Garma has a Gengarite, which allows X to Mega Evolve it into Mega Gengar.
*While confronting Essentia, X's Rute and Y's Solsol are given their respective Mega Stones, allowing them to Mega Evolve into Mega Pinsir and Mega Absol respectively.
*Both X's [[Salamè]] and [[Blue's Charizard]] Mega Evolved into Mega Charizard X and Mega Charizard Y respectively, after defeating [[Xerosic]]'s Pokémon.
*After reuniting with [[Blaine]], {{adv|Mewtwo}} gained the ability to Mega Evolve into both Mega Mewtwo X and Y. Due to their bond, Mewtwo is able to Mega Evolve more than once per battle.

In the {{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, the role of Mega Evolution was diminished but its accessibility continued to be confined to a selected number of Trainers.
*In ''[[PAORAS01|Omega Alpha Adventure 1]]'', {{adv|Ruby}}, {{adv|Sapphire}}, and {{adv|Emerald}} were shown learning how to Mega Evolve their Pokémon from [[Ultima]]. Sapphire and Emerald were seen mastering it in ''[[PAORAS03|Omega Alpha Adventure 3]]'', where they Mega Evolved their respective [[Chic|starter]] [[Emerald's Sceptile|Pokémon]].
*In ''[[PAORAS02|Omega Alpha Adventure 2]]'', Ruby was able to successfully Mega Evolve Latios into Mega Latios, allowing them to [[soaring|soar]] into the sky. He soon arrived at the [[Sky Pillar]], where he met and battled [[Zinnia]], who used her Mega {{TP|Zinnia|Salamence}} against Mega Latios.
*In ''[[PAORAS06|Omega Alpha Adventure 6]]'', {{Steven}} Mega Evolved his {{TP|Steven|Metagross}} into Mega Metagross with his Mega Stickpin.
*In ''[[PAORAS07|Omega Alpha Adventure 7]]'', [[Jinga]] of the [[Draconid people|Draconids]] Mega Evolved his Slowbro into Mega Slowbro in his battle against Ruby.
*In ''[[PAORAS08|Omega Alpha Adventure 8]]'', Ruby Mega Evolved [[Mumu]] into Mega Swampert.
*In ''[[PAORAS11|Omega Alpha Adventure 11]]'', [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]] used their Mega Glasses and Mega Anchor to Mega Evolve their Camerupt and Sharpedo into Mega {{p|Camerupt}} and Mega {{p|Sharpedo}} respectively. In retaliation, {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Green}} Mega Evolved [[Saur]] and [[Blasty]] into Mega {{p|Venusaur}} and Mega {{p|Blastoise}} respectively to battle them.
*In ''[[PAORAS15|Omega Alpha Adventure 15]]'', footage of Rayquaza Mega Evolving was seen.
*In ''[[PAORAS20|Omega Alpha Adventure 20]]'', {{adv|Giovanni}} Mega Evolved his {{TP|Giovanni|Beedrill}} as part of his explanation that the meteoroid headed for Hoenn may be housing a Pokémon inside of it, since Mega Evolution is only supposed to work within a battle. Later, Sapphire and Ruby Mega Evolved [[Kirly]] and [[Rara]] into Mega Gallade and Mega Gardevoir respectively during a brief battle against each other.
*In ''[[PAORAS21|Omega Alpha Adventure 21]]'', Ruby and Sapphire Mega Evolved {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} in order to have it destroy [[Grand Meteor Delta]]. Later in the Pokémon Contest Spectacular, Ruby is able to Mega Evolve {{p|Diancie}} for his and Sapphire's performance.

==In the TCG==
Mega Evolution is mainly featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] as {{Mega}}{{TCG|Pokémon-EX#M Pokémon-EX|Pokémon}}{{EX}}. They were added as a new mechanic to the game in the {{TCG|XY}} era as an evolution of Pokémon-EX cards. Mega Evolving a Pokémon immediately ends a player's turn, unless that Pokémon has its specific Spirit Link [[Trainer card (TCG)#Pokémon Tool|Pokémon Tool]] attached to it.

The following is a list of cards mentioning or featuring Mega Evolved Pokémon in the Trading Card Game.

==Trivia==
* There is at least one Mega-Evolved Pokémon of every [[type]]: {{t|Psychic}} has the most (with ten), while {{t|Ice}} and {{t|Electric}} have the fewest (with two each).
** Electric is the only type for which no new Mega Evolution was introduced in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]].
* {{p|Gardevoir}} and {{p|Gallade}} are the only Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution that are in the same evolutionary family.
* Only Pokémon which cannot evolve further are capable of Mega Evolution.
** {{p|Aerodactyl}} is the only [[Fossil|Fossil Pokémon]] capable of Mega Evolution.
** {{p|Rayquaza}} is the only [[trio master]] capable of Mega Evolution.
** {{p|Diancie}} is the only [[Mythical Pokémon]] capable of Mega Evolution.
* With {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 780|base stat totals of 780}}, Mega Mewtwo X, Mega Mewtwo Y, and Mega Rayquaza have the highest base stat totals of any obtainable Pokémon. Eternamax {{p|Eternatus}} has the highest base stat total of all Pokémon at 1125, but cannot be used by the player.
** In addition, Mega Mewtwo Y has the highest base Special Attack of all Pokémon at 194, and Mega Mewtwo X has the highest base Attack of all Pokémon at 190. Mega Mewtwo X also has the highest base stat increase of all Mega Evolutions, its Attack stat being boosted by 80 upon the process.
* {{p|Aggron}} is the only dual-type Pokémon to become single-type upon Mega Evolving, going from {{2t|Steel|Rock}}-type to pure {{type|Steel}}.
* The only Pokémon with multiple Mega Evolutions are {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Mewtwo}}, which have two each. In both cases, the first ones to be revealed were the Y versions.
** In addition, both of their Y Mega Evolutions kept their original type(s), while both of their X Mega Evolutions changed or added their secondary type.
** Also, in both cases, the X Mega Evolution is more physically-oriented (with a higher Attack and/or Defense), while the Y Mega Evolution is more specially-oriented (with a higher Special Attack and/or Special Defense).
* Rayquaza is the only Pokémon that does not require a [[Mega Stone]] to Mega Evolve in the core series games, instead being required to know {{m|Dragon Ascent}}.
** This makes Rayquaza the only Pokémon that can have a different held item while Mega Evolved, since Mega Stones cannot be taken off their proper holder during battle.
** In [[Pokémon Shuffle]] Rayquaza needs the player to get the Meteorite for it to Mega Evolve.
* Mega {{p|Latias}} and Mega {{p|Latios}} are programmed into {{g|X and Y}}; as a result, they are not banned by the Kalos rules from battles, and their Mega Stones are not banned from trades between Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire and X or Y, despite being otherwise unavailable in those games.
* The Japanese and Korean logos for [[Pokémon X and Y]] include the Mega Evolution sigil.
* In an interview with the Nintendo Dream magazine, [[Ken Sugimori]] stated that {{p|Flygon}} was intended to get a Mega Evolution in [[Pokémon X and Y]], but the [[List of unused Pokémon and character designs#Pokémon designs|idea was dropped]] due to him experiencing artist's block.
* In the Pokémon X and Y demo, the message "''An immense rare power has risen in Mewtwo''" would be displayed before Mega Evolving. In the final game, the message displayed is "''<Pokémon>'s <Mega Stone> is reacting to <Trainer>'s <Key Stone item>!''" Additionally, Mega Mewtwo Y is referred to as simply Mega Mewtwo.
* {{p|Slowbro}} is the only Pokemon to have both a Mega Evolved form and a [[regional form]].

Template talk:Ability/head

2020-07-06T23:25:51Z

Suic12-: /* Generation differences subpages */

==Update==
Could someone please add a column for the Mega Evolution ability? And [[Template:Ability/entry|here]] as well? [[User:TheOriginalOne|'''オリ''']][[User talk:TheOriginalOne|'''ジ''']][[Special:Contributions/TheOriginalOne|'''ナル''']] TheOriginalOne 13:31, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
:We're going to update all of the templates around the same time so we can keep track of everything more efficiently. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 20:22, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

== Generation differences subpages ==

Shouldn't this template be divided into generations? Because as it is now, it's super confusing and messy, and handling accuracy by adding a note at [[Template:Ability/foot|the footer]] of each ability table in the articles makes it very confusing to determine what's true or not for a given game.

With this in mind, I came up with something like the [[Template:Learnlist/levelh|learnsets template]] for showing 100% accurate tables for each generation, which would be much better and orderly. Something like this could go in the main article for a given ability:

{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityHeaderGen|Stench|Poison|Poison}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|044|Gloom|Grass|Poison|Chlorophyll|None|Stench}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|088|Grimer|Poison|Poison|Stench|Sticky Hold|Poison Touch}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|089|Muk|Poison|Poison|Stench|Sticky Hold|Poison Touch}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|434|Stunky|Poison|Dark|Stench|Aftermath|Keen Eye}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|435|Skuntank|Poison|Dark|Stench|Aftermath|Keen Eye}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|568|Trubbish|Poison|Poison|Stench|Sticky Hold|Aftermath}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|569|Garbodor|Poison|Poison|Stench|Weak Armor|Aftermath}}
|}
|}

And this other can go in the subpages (this one can be used for both Gen III and IV):

{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityHeaderGen34|Shell Armor|Water|Water|4}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|090|Shellder|Water|Water|Shell Armor|Skill Link}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|091|Cloyster|Water|Ice|Shell Armor|Skill Link}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|098|Krabby|Water|Water|Hyper Cutter|Shell Armor}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|099|Kingler|Water|Water|Hyper Cutter|Shell Armor}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|131|Lapras|Water|Ice|Water Absorb|Shell Armor}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|138|Omanyte|Rock|Water|Swift Swim|Shell Armor}}
{{User:Hfc2x/AbilityEntry|139|Omastar|Rock|Water|Swift Swim|Shell Armor}}
|}
|}

Take into account that this is just a proof of concept, so of course there'll be things that need to be corrected. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 01:19, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
:That's actually an interesting idea. I hadn't given this specific issue much thought, but now that I think about it, it can get pretty confusing.
:I do think we should tackle this somehow, and having separete tables (when necessary) may just work. However, I don't think there would be enough content for each single subpage, and many of them would end up being redundant.
:I would suggest we instead have all tables on the ability page itself, but only show the most recent one by default and have the others hidden under a hide/show button (it's not really necessary to hide them, I just think it would keep the page easier to read). We would also only need to add more tables if there was enough change between generatios to justify it. For example, if no Pokémon had changes to their abilities from one generation to the next (or if all that happened was that Pokémon from the new generation now have the ability), or if they only had a hidden ability added from gen IV to gen V, a single table could easily cover these two generations.

I don't think making many tables is neccessery, there aren't that many changes for it. I put all the special cases I am aware of above and think this table is much more intuitive than what is it currently.--'''[[User:Team Rocket Grunt|Rocket Grunt]] ([[User talk:Team Rocket Grunt|Report To Me]])''' 16:35, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
:The problem is not simply that an ability stops being available to a certain Pokémon. New generations often added new possible abilities to many Pokémon without removing those that were already available. Most of these times the abilities added were introduced in the new generation in question, but some of them are eventually from an earlier generation. There are many other like Miltank that received a new ability from generation III to IV. The overall problem is that it's not immediately evident when one of the abilities of a Pokémon shouldn't be considered for a certain generation.

{{StrategyWiki|Pokémon Crystal}}

'''Pokémon Crystal Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター　クリスタルバージョン''' ''Pocket Monsters: Crystal Version'') is the third and final [[Generation II]] [[core series]] game for [[Game Boy Color]]. It was released as a [[core series|solitary version]] to {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, which were released one year before. It was released in Japan on December 14, 2000, in North America on July 29, 2001, and in Europe on November 2, 2001.

It featured various fixes and some new additions, most notably the introduction of the option to {{player|play}} as a {{ga|Kris|girl}}. It takes place in the region of [[Johto]] like Gold and Silver, with access to [[Kanto]] granted later in the game, with the player's starting town being [[New Bark Town]].

The Japanese version had far more new features, all related to a {{wp|mobile phone}}-related linking technology usable through the [[Pokémon Mobile System GB]] when connecting a [[Mobile Game Boy Adapter]] to a [[Game Boy Color]] or [[Game Boy Advance]] (original or [[Game Boy Advance SP|SP]]).

The game was released on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Virtual Console]] on January 26, 2018.

==Plot==
{{spoilers}}
The {{player}} is called to [[Professor Elm]]'s lab to run an errand. He provides the player with one of three Pokémon: {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, or {{p|Totodile}} to help them get to [[Mr. Pokémon]]'s house. The player meets [[Kanto]]'s own [[Professor Oak]] during the errand for Elm. Oak, convinced that the player has started their own Pokémon journey, gives them a [[Pokédex]]. On the way back, the player is attacked by a spiteful and {{ga|Silver|mysterious Pokémon Trainer}}. Upon the player's return to New Bark Town, they are informed that someone has broken into Professor Elm's lab and has stolen a Pokémon, the same Pokémon that the Trainer from earlier battled with (the Pokémon that the player's starter is weak against); even more so, that very same Trainer fits the description of the Pokémon thief. This Trainer will become the player's [[rival]] for the course of the game, having several conflicts with the player as to what it means to be the world's greatest Pokémon Trainer.

[[Team Rocket]] has returned with a new attitude, since the disappearance of their leader [[Giovanni]], and once again tries to take over the world, starting with the [[Johto]] region. They begin with petty things (such as cutting off the tails of {{p|Slowpoke}} to sell as food for a high price) before becoming more devious, such as a plan to use radio frequencies to artificially induce evolution in some Pokémon at the Lake of Rage near Mahogany town. When the player defeats or captures the [[Red Gyarados|Red]] {{p|Gyarados}} rampaging in the lake, [[Lance]] will arrive and congratulate the player for their battling and requests that the player help him find the source of the radio signals. When the player returns to Mahogany town and enters the Souvenir Shop, they will find Lance and his {{p|Dragonite}} threatening the man in the shop. A secret door will open to the Rocket base, which was revealed by a Rocket Grunt to be an old ninja hideout. After the player defeats the Rocket Executive found in the hideout, Lance asks the player to help him knock out the Electrode powering the machine producing the radio waves.

After completing this task, Lance thanks the player and gives them the HM {{m|Whirlpool}}. After the player defeats [[Pryce]] - the leader of Mahogany Gym - Professor Elm will call the player and tell them about unusual broadcasts from the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] in [[Goldenrod City]]. When the player reaches Goldenrod City, it is revealed that Team Rocket has taken over the Radio Tower, their intent being to try to contact their missing leader, [[Giovanni]], and persuade him to return to Team Rocket. Also, the Director of the Goldenrod station has been kidnapped and replaced by an impostor. After the player defeats the impostor, he will tell them the location of the real Director. When the player frees the real Director, he will give the player the Card Key, which opens the door on 3F of the Radio Tower and leads to the Rocket Executive currently in charge of the group. The player defeats the executive and Team Rocket officially disbands for a second time. The Director rewards the player with a [[Clear Bell]].

Throughout the adventure, the player will also come across {{p|Suicune}}, a Legendary Pokémon that traverses Johto after the player awakens the three [[Legendary beasts]] from their sleep at the [[Burned Tower]]. Unlike {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Entei}}, Suicune takes notice of the player; similarly, [[Eusine]] shows interest in Suicune, having sought it for ten years and finally catching a glimpse of it thanks to the player. As Eusine challenges the player to a battle near [[Cianwood City]], it becomes clear that Eusine wants to earn Suicune's respect so that he can find out what it is that it looks after. However, it is when the player is entrusted with the Clear Bell that the {{tc|Sage|Wise Trio}} allow them to enter the Tin Tower, where Suicune has arrived to put them to the test. Later in the story, after the player has proven their ability to touch the souls of Pokémon by catching all three of the Legendary beasts, {{p|Ho-Oh}} returns to the Tin Tower after 150 years of testing humans from afar.

As in all previous games, the main goal of the player is to defeat all the [[Gym Leader]]s of Johto, win all eight Badges, and take on the [[Elite Four]] and the current [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. Afterward, the player will be able to travel to the region of [[Kanto]] and take on the Kanto Gym Leaders for their Badges. After winning all eight Badges, Professor Oak will give the player permission to go to [[Mt. Silver]] and face the protagonist from [[Generation I]], {{ga|Red}}.

==Changes from Pokémon Gold and Silver==
===Aesthetic changes===
* A female [[player character]], {{ga|Kris}}, is introduced, marking the first time players can choose the gender of their character. The choice is purely aesthetic and does not affect gameplay or the story.
* When entering a location, its name is displayed on-screen. This feature is carried forward in all subsequent games.
* Several locations have had their graphics altered:
** The [[Goldenrod Game Corner]] and [[Celadon Game Corner]] are both redesigned with a different color scheme and a new design for the slot machines.
** The [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] has a subtly different color scheme, and the second floor has been largely redesigned with the addition of [[Buena]]'s studio and new furniture.
** The pond in [[National Park]] now has a fountain in the center, and a drinking fountain is added next to the benches in the south of the park.
** The [[Burned Tower]] appears as a visibly burnt-out building on the exterior. The interior is now dark and has a different layout.
** The exterior of the [[Glitter Lighthouse]] has altered, with a new window design at the top making it more distinctly resemble a lighthouse.
** The [[Ice Path]] is redesigned with a bright blue ice-like appearance. Some of the puzzles within have also been altered.
** [[Lance]]'s room at the [[Indigo Plateau]] now has a draconic appearance, with the generic statues in the room being replaced with {{p|Dratini}} statues.
** The restaurants in [[Olivine City]], [[Celadon City]], and [[Fuchsia City]] feature a new design with a different color scheme.
** In the [[Celadon Condominiums|Celadon Mansion]], there is an [[Easter egg]] on the right side of the staircase that leads up from the roof's entrance/exit. Interacting with this wall yields the text "''There's {{wp|graffiti}} on the wall... <Player> added a moustache!''"
[[File:CrystalBattle.png|frame|right|Pokémon sprites are now animated.]]
* Pokémon sprites have been updated:
** Front sprites for every Pokémon now play a short animation upon entering battle and a longer one when the Pokémon's profile is viewed. This feature wasn't carried forward again until {{game|Emerald}}.
** While most of the Pokémon retain their sprites from either Gold or Silver, certain Pokémon, such as {{p|Houndoom}} and {{p|Croconaw}}, were given new ones. This includes some Pokémon who had identical sprites in both Gold and Silver, like {{p|Sneasel}} and {{p|Suicune}}.
** The W {{p|Unown}} was redesigned, and its new design is used in all subsequent games.
** A few Pokémon, such as {{p|Spinarak}}, {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Sneasel}}, were recolored to more closely match their official artwork.
** Several of the Pokémon that were redrawn have different back sprites.
* Certain Trainers have different dialogue to Gold and Silver.
* Raikou, Entei, and Suicune have their own unique battle theme when the player encounters them in the wild, making Crystal the first game to sport special [[Legendary Pokémon]] battle music.
* The user interface used during Game Link Cable trades was redesigned. Gold and Silver used a simple black on white trading interface that was identical to the one used in the [[Generation I]] games, mainly to retain compatibility with older [[Game Boy]] systems. In Crystal, the menus were revamped with full color on a black background, a design which better suits the capabilities of the Game Boy Color.

===Location changes===
* Grass is now present on the eastern side of {{rt|36|Johto}}, west of [[Violet City]]. In this grass, {{p|Growlithe}} can be caught, allowing players to acquire a {{type|Fire}} Pokémon much earlier than in other versions (assuming they did not [[Starter Pokémon|choose]] {{p|Cyndaquil}}), and making a large difference in the availability of Fire-types for areas like the [[Azalea Gym]] and the [[Sprout Tower]], where Fire-types are super effective.
* Just like in the {{game|Blue| (Japanese)|Japanese Pokémon Blue}} and all releases of {{game|Yellow}}, changes are made to available [[wild Pokémon]]:
** Several Pokémon that were exclusive to either Gold or Silver, like {{p|Gligar}} and {{p|Skarmory}}, can be found in Crystal. But certain species that were available in both versions, like the {{p|Mareep}} family, are not available in Crystal.
** {{p|Sneasel}} appears in the [[Ice Path]], whereas in Gold and Silver it can only be found in [[Mt. Silver]].
** {{p|Magmar}} can no longer be found in the [[Burned Tower]], instead appearing exclusively in Mt. Silver.
** Some of the wild Pokémon that appear in [[Kanto]] have been altered.
** [[Mass outbreak]]s can now only occur with one of three Pokémon as opposed to one of seven. {{p|Tauros}}, {{p|Marill}} and {{p|Snubbull}} are now easily available in the wild, and the latter was relocated.
** Some Pokémon that are available at all times of the day in Gold and Silver, like {{p|Smeargle}} or {{p|Tauros}}, are now purely [[Diurnal Pokémon|diurnal]] or [[Nocturnal Pokémon|nocturnal]].
* Some trainer placements in the overworld have been adjusted.
* Several new Trainers have been added, some of which can only be battled when certain conditions are met. For example, Pokéfan Jaime on {{rt|39|Johto}} can only be battled at night. Some of these new trainers won't lock eyes with the player, and when spoken to won't play the "encounter" music before engaging in battle.
* The [[Goldenrod Department Store]] features a new rooftop area. Sales are periodically held here, which the player is informed about if Camper Todd's number is registered in the [[Pokégear]].
* The Flower shop in [[Goldenrod City]] has been relocated slightly further from the main street and decorated with flowers, making it stand out from the surrounding buildings.
* A {{Gdis|Battle Tower|II}}, the first in the series, is now present to the north of {{rt|40|Johto}}.
* [[Cianwood City]] has been slightly expanded further northwards, with the addition of the Poké Seer's house and a small ledge.
* The layout of [[Mt. Mortar]] is significantly different compared to Gold and Silver.
* The [[Dragon's Den]] has received several alterations: the Dragon Shrine can be entered, some {{m|Headbutt}} trees are added directly behind Shrine, and the Den itself is now populated with trainers.

===Gameplay changes===
* {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}} can only be caught after completing the game and reaching Kanto. They are both at level 60.
** Ho-Oh can be caught after {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}} are all caught and Eusine is spoken to in [[Celadon City]].
** Lugia can be caught after obtaining the [[Silver Wing]] in [[Pewter City]], like in Pokémon Gold.
* Changes have been made to the [[Ruins of Alph]]. This includes more common {{p|Unown}}, as well as a new subplot—completing enough puzzles allows the player to read a secret message left behind by the Unown. It suggests that the Unown were left behind by the ancient civilization that constructed the Ruins of Alph, and that the statues that line the interior were made by those people.
* Trainers who call the player on the [[Pokégear#Phone|cell phone]] now have distinct personalities (one talks about shopping, another about grooming etc.), and call for reasons other than battling, such as giving the player items, or informing them of a rare Pokémon appearing (Wade gives the player [[Berry|Berries]], Alan gives them a [[Fire Stone]], etc.). In Gold and Silver they all say the same phrase, with only the names of the Pokémon they reference changing.
* A new radio show, [[Buena's Password]], has been added. Players can listen out for a password on their [[Pokégear]] radio and tell Buena the password to receive points, which can be spent to redeem prizes.
* The function to reset the clock in non-Japanese and non-Korean versions of Gold and Silver remains, although it is now more difficult to access.
** On the title screen, the player must first hold the '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B''' buttons.
** While holding '''SELECT''', they must release '''↓''' and '''B'''.
** Still holding '''SELECT''', they must now hold '''←''' and '''↑'''.
** Finally, the player must release '''SELECT'''.
* [[Kurt]] can now make multiple Balls from same colored [[Apricorn]]s simultaneously.
* The [[Odd Egg]] can be obtained from the Day-Care Man after speaking to him for the first time.
* Some Pokémon have changed level-up movesets; however, all {{p|Suicune|but one}} of them have only one change.
* Some bugs with the battle mechanics were fixed; however, the game performs a check when it detects a Link battle to use the older and buggy mechanics in order to maintain compatibility with {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. This occurs even between linked players of Pokémon Crystal games.
** Likewise, the game also performs a check that partially converts [[Kris]] into {{ga|Ethan}} at the Cable Club and [[Time Capsule]] rooms, even if all the players using the Cable Club rooms are specifically playing Pokémon Crystal.
* A Pokémon's [[friendship]] can be increased more effectively by training in the same location where the Pokémon has been caught or hatched.

===Storyline changes===
* The player must first meet the florist's assistant on {{rt|36|Johto}}, who then heads back to inform her boss about {{p|Sudowoodo|the strange tree blocking the path}}, before the [[Squirt Bottle|SquirtBottle]] can be obtained.
* Suicune, instead of being a side Legendary Pokémon, has a prominent role in the game's storyline. Awakening the Legendary Beasts is now a prerequisite for challenging Morty. After this, the player will constantly find Suicune in various locations throughout Johto. After receiving a [[Clear Bell]] (where in Gold and Silver, the [[Rainbow Wing|Rainbow]] or [[Silver Wing]] would be obtained instead), the player will have a chance to battle and capture it in the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]], and it will not run away.
* A new character, [[Eusine]], is added to the game. He is searching for {{p|Suicune}} as well, and will battle [[Player character|the player]] in [[Cianwood City]] to earn its respect.
* The chain of events to obtain the {{badge|Rising}} is altered. Whereas in Gold and Silver it involves a trip to the [[Dragon's Den]] to retrieve the [[Dragon Fang]], it now involves entering the Dragon Shrine within the Den. There, [[Clair]]'s grandfather and leader of the dragon-user clan quizzes the player on their style of battling. Clair arrives and still refuses to hand over her Badge after the player passes. In response, her grandfather threatens to tell her cousin, Lance, of whom Clair is terrified. If all the questions are answered correctly, the player will receive a {{p|Dratini}} that knows {{m|ExtremeSpeed}} upon returning and speaking with Clair's grandfather.

===[[Game-exclusive Pokémon|Missing Pokémon]]===
These Pokémon must be traded from the other games of [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}}, as they cannot be found in Pokémon Crystal.

Note that "'''{{color|{{green color}}|G}}'''" indicates a Pokémon that can be caught in the {{game|Red and Green|s|Japanese Green}}, and thus in the {{game|Red and Blue|s|Western Blue}} as well.

==Localization changes==
The localized releases of Crystal, while improving on the mechanics of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, did not reprise a number of newer features that the Japanese version had received:

* In the Japanese version, {{p|Celebi}} may be caught at [[Ilex Forest]] after completing a short side-mission. A special event requiring the [[Pokémon Mobile System GB]] allowed players to obtain the [[GS Ball]]. This item, given by a [[Pokémon Center Nurse|nurse]] at the [[Pokémon Communication Center]] in [[Goldenrod City]], may be taken to [[Kurt]] in [[Azalea Town]] to investigate. After a day passes, Kurt gives back the GS Ball to the player and asks them to check the restless Ilex Forest. Taking the GS Ball to the shrine at Ilex Forest summons a [[level]] 30 {{p|Celebi}} to {{pkmn|battle}}. Despite the fact that the GS Ball was unavailable overseas without [[cheating]] or hacking, the event was translated and adapted to the regular [[Pokémon Center]] in Goldenrod City of the Western releases of Crystal, indicating that it was intended for the localizations to include the event, but was later scrapped.
* Goldenrod City's Pokémon Center was replaced by a much larger building, the aforementioned Pokémon Communication Center. The localizations reverted it to the Pokémon Center of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} while changing some of the [[Non-player character|NPCs]] to match those in the Pokémon Communication Center.
* Players could link to [[trade]] or battle through the use of the [[Mobile Game Boy Adapter]] and the previously mentioned Pokémon Mobile System GB.
* Players could leave a Pokémon and a request for the Pokémon species that it be traded for at the Pokémon Communication Center's Trade Corner. A player could also view Pokémon up for trade from other players, and trade with them. This is similar to the current [[Global Trade System]] of the [[Generation IV]] and later games.
* The Pokémon News Machine at the Pokémon Communication Center updated over the Pokémon Mobile System GB. Pokémon News was compiled from the saved game data of players across Japan, allowing players to read about other players' adventures.
* The [[Day-Care Couple|Day-Care Man]] at the [[Pokémon Day Care]] on {{rt|34|Johto}} gave an [[Egg Ticket]] which, when taken to the Trade Corner at the [[Pokémon Communication Center]], could be traded for an [[Odd Egg]] which hatched into a [[baby Pokémon]] that knows {{m|Dizzy Punch}} and has a 50% chance of being {{Shiny}}. In the localizations, the Day-Care Man instead gives away the Odd Egg himself and it only has a 14% chance of being Shiny.
* The {{gdis|Battle Tower|II}} does not connect to the Pokémon Mobile System GB in the localization versions and is open at all times.

==Connectivity==
{{incomplete|section}}

==Differences in the Virtual Console release==
As with {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, the Crystal Virtual Console releases include a few changes:

* The Nintendo 3DS [[Virtual Console]] releases can [[#Connectivity|link]] with other Virtual Console Generation I and II core series games via Nintendo 3DS wireless communication, simulating the [[Game Link Cable]]. Like in the original releases, they can only communicate with the Virtual Console Generation I core series games by using the [[Time Capsule]]. Unlike the VC releases of Generation I games, closing the communication normally does not cause the emulator to restart, although it does restart if the communication was cut due to an error. When initiating a link, the Virtual Console menu on the touch screen replaces the Cable Club attendant's dialogue. Additionally, all of the [[Game Boy Printer]] features are disabled, although the option still appears in the Pokédex and the PC menu.
* [[Mystery Gift]] can be performed with other Virtual Console copies of Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal using the Nintendo 3DS system's [[infrared]] port. Unlike other link features, the user interface remains unchanged from the original games.
* Using [[Poké Transporter]], Pokémon can be sent from the Generation II core series games to [[Pokémon Bank]], and from Pokémon Bank, they can then be moved to [[Generation VII]] core series games.
* In battle, some moves had their animations changed slightly to tone down the flashing by dimming the screen, although this is not the case in all localized releases.
* In the Japanese release, {{p|Jynx}}'s sprite has been replaced with the sprite used in Western versions, as the original had previously fell under controversy for its resemblance to {{wp|blackface}}. In addition, due to the Pokémon Mobile System GB not being present, Japanese players are unable to use any of the features in the Pokémon Communication Center, access the {{gdis|Battle Tower|II}}, and receive the Egg Ticket to exchange for the Odd Egg.
* The event allowing the player to obtain the [[GS Ball]] and capture {{p|Celebi}} is activated by entering and leaving the [[Pokémon Communication Center]] (in the Japanese release) or the [[Pokémon Center]] in [[Goldenrod City]] (in non-Japanese releases) after entering the [[Hall of Fame]], without any additional requirements. Not only is this event now available to Japanese players outside of set dates, and to worldwide players at all, it also occurs earlier in the game, as the original Crystal release required the player to get all eight [[Kanto]] badges first.

==Legacy==
While Gold and Silver introduced the majority of Generation II's contributions to the game mechanics, Crystal also featured several additions to the franchise that continue into the future. First, Crystal introduced the option to play as a female character. The game also featured the first [[Move Tutor]] of the series, as well as the first {{Gdis|Battle Tower|II}}. This was the first game to include animated sprites for Pokémon, though this only applied to front sprites (back sprites remained still as they did in previous games). This feature was absent in later games until it was reintroduced in {{game|Emerald}}, after which it became standard. Back sprites did not become fully animated until {{game|Platinum}}, which also added animations for important Trainers such as [[Gym Leader]]s. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, sprites remain animated throughout the battle; before these games, Pokémon Crystal was the only game that had more than two frames per animation.

Even though {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} were the first games to use [[Legendary Pokémon]] (specifically {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}}) as [[game mascot]]s, it was Crystal that incorporated them into the plot for the first time. The story additions involving the [[Legendary beasts]] (most prominently {{p|Suicune}}), Ho-Oh and {{p|Unown}} were unprecedented, since up until then no Pokémon had been referenced in the dialogue on more than one occasion. This was also evident in the fact that the Legendary beasts received a unique battle theme, and in that the plot climax was no longer limited to thwarting [[Team Rocket]], instead culminating in the battle against Suicune at [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]]. Later generations focus on their game mascots as part of the plot involving the [[villainous team]] of the respective region (with the only exception being the remade versions; {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} follow {{game|Red and Green|s}}'s footsteps, and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} are similar to Crystal in keeping the two stories separated).

The Japanese version of Crystal notably introduced the ability to link to a wireless connection and interact with other characters (via cell phone). The [[Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter]] also enabled this ability in [[Generation III]] (albeit to a far lesser extent, due to the Wireless Adapter's limited range), and the Wi-Fi capabilities of the [[Nintendo DS]] completely optimized the concept in [[Generation IV]] games. The [[GS Ball]] event was the first time where an [[event Pokémon]] (in this case {{p|Celebi}}) could be caught in-game as opposed to being directly downloaded to the cartridge; this went on to be the case for several such Pokémon in subsequent generations.

==Reception==
Pokémon Crystal received good reviews, although they were not quite as positive as those of Pokémon Gold and Silver. Like Pokémon Yellow before it, and subsequently Pokémon Emerald, it was criticized for being too similar to its sister games, with {{wp|IGN}} commenting "there's not much in this edition that makes it a 'must buy' for folks who already own a copy or two of the previous editions."<ref name="IGN">[https://www.ign.com/articles/2001/07/30/pokemon-crystal-2 Pokémon Crystal - IGN]</ref> IGN still gave the game an "Amazing" rating of 9.0/10.<ref name="IGN"/> It holds an average score of 79.86% on {{wp|GameRankings}},<ref>[https://www.gamerankings.com/gbc/375087-pokemon-crystal-version/index.html Pokemon Crystal Version for Game Boy Color - GameRankings]</ref> about 10% lower than Pokémon Gold and Silver.<ref>[https://www.gamerankings.com/gbc/198308-pokemon-gold-version/index.html Pokémon Gold Version for Game Boy Color - GameRankings]</ref>

===Sales===
====Japanese sales====
Pokémon Crystal sold 549,135 units on its first week on the Japanese market. By December 31, 2006, the end of its 316th week, it had sold 1,550,698 copies.

==Battery life==
Cartridges of the [[Generation II]] games typically lose the ability to [[save]] in a shorter time frame than copies of other Pokémon games due to the battery maintaining both the saved game and {{wp|real-time clock}} data, causing it to drain quicker. A symptom of a battery running dry is the game's inability to keep track of the time correctly and the [[error message]] '''TIME NOT SET''' may also appear on the title screen.

The cartridge memory is powered by a {{wp|CR2025|CR2025}} or a {{wp|CR2032|CR2032}} battery. Since it powers the memory containing the save file, the battery running out or interrupting the power by removing the battery will cause any current save file to be erased and internal clock to be reset. External power sources and third party devices have been used to maintain or backup and restore the save file to and from an external memory or a personal computer.

==Staff==
{{main|Staff of Pokémon Crystal}}

==Music==
{{main|Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection}}
Most of the game's music comes from Pokémon Gold and Silver, which have not had any sort of official soundtrack release of the games' original tracks. The closest approximation to such a release is Disc 3 of ''Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection'', which is based on the [[GB Sounds]] item and the [[Pokémon Music Channel#Pokémon Past Archive|Pokémon Past Archive]] radio program of HeartGold and SoulSilver that is meant to emulate the style of chiptunes. However, not all of the old-style music is available on the CD. Additionally, Discs 1 and 2 of the aforementioned soundtrack contain remixes of the music originating from Pokémon Gold and Silver (and Crystal). Moreover, several tracks that are exclusive to Japanese Crystal have not received official releases.

==Version history==

==Trivia==
[[File:Pokemoncrystal.logo.png|thumb|An early logo for Japanese Crystal (the word ''kashō'' (仮称) means "tentative title")]]
[[File:Pokémon Crystal alt logo.png|thumb|English equivalent logo]]
* Although [[Game Freak]] released a game called ''[[Pokémon X and Y|Pokémon X]]'' for the [[Nintendo 3DS]] in 2013, the tentative title for a game similar to the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal with planned support to [[Pokémon Mobile System GB|connect to a mobile phone]] and set for an April 2000 release was also ''Pocket Monsters X'' (ポケットモンスターＸ), according to multiple sources such as an {{wp|Asahi Shimbun}} news article from December 1999<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20000303153731/http://www.asahi.com/tech/news/19991216h.html ネット最前線：ニュース]</ref> and {{wp|IGN}}.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20000303114916/http://pocket.ign.com/news/13341.html IGN]: Networking Pokémon (archive)</ref><ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20000815220050/http://pocket.ign.com/news/22176.html IGN]: The Cell Phone, GBA and Pokémon (archive)</ref> The game was postponed until 2001 due to the planned release of the [[Game Boy Advance]].<ref>[http://park3.wakwak.com/~pokepale/news/0/old/log/38.htm ポケモン情報サイト「palette」過去ログ38 - ポケパレ！]</ref> The article mentions an [[Mobile Game Boy Adapter|adapter]] for linking a [[Game Boy]] to a mobile phone, with the datacenter server used for the feature being hosted by {{wp|Kyocera}} in {{wp|Kyoto}}.
* The Japanese logo shown at {{wp|Nintendo Space World}} 2000 was originally similar to the one from {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.<ref>[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/event/sw2000/itiran/mgb/soft/crystal/ ポケットモンスタークリスタル（仮称）]</ref> Additionally, the previous referred source also shows an early design for the [[PokéCom Club]] rooms.
** An English equivalent of this logo was created and used on the [https://web.archive.org/web/20010722063635/http://www.nintendo.dk:80/spil/pokemon/vis_sitetext.asp?SiteTextID=991&Language=1 Pokémon minisite hosted by Nintendo Denmark].
* People buying a [[Game Boy Color]] during the release of this game were given the option of buying a [[Game Boy Advance]] that came with Pokémon Crystal in the package.
* During battles, Japanese midline horizontal ellipses ("⋯") are used in the English versions instead of regular ellipses ("…") due to an oversight.
[[File:Pokemon Crystal UnusedTitleScreen.png|thumb|right|The unused title screen of Pokémon Crystal]]
* The game's opening shows several {{p|Unown}} communicating with {{p|Suicune}} over radio waves, alerting it to the [[Ruins of Alph]]. Oddly, this is not part of the game's story, with the Ruins of Alph sidequest being independent of the plot involving Suicune. That said, the Unown are referenced by the {{tc|Sage|Wise Trio}} as having a cooperative bond with Suicune.
** In the Japanese version, a researcher at the Ruins of Alph claims that the [[Pokémon Communication Center]] in [[Goldenrod City]] influences the Unown. His unused English text is: ''According to my research... Those mysterious patterns appeared when the <sc>Pok</sc>é<sc>com Center</sc> was built. It must mean that radio waves have some sort of a link...''
** Additionally, there is an unused static title screen in the game's data that shows an {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Unown|A-shaped}} {{p|Unown}} instead of {{p|Suicune}}. It also does not reboot the game automatically after the title screen's music stops.
* The Japanese [[Super Game Boy]] border of {{game|Gold and Silver|s|Pokémon Gold}} (labeled '''<sc>Pocket Monsters Gold Version</sc>''') is unused in all releases of Pokémon Crystal. The equivalent border from the Japanese {{game|Gold and Silver|s|Pokémon Silver}} (labeled '''<sc>Pocket Monsters Silver Version</sc>''') is not present.
* This is the last localized [[core series]] game to use the slogan ''[[Gotta catch 'em all!]]''.
* The Japanese version has an emblem of Suicune's crest on the back of the Game Pak's circuit board.

Talk:??? (type)

2020-07-06T22:36:56Z

Suic12-: New sections go to the bottom

==Statistical averages==
Wait, how can ??? type have statistical averages? -OmegaPlatinum
:That... is a very good question. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 04:17, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
::It was [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Unknown_type&diff=150318&oldid=148555 added] a while ago, obtained through hacking the game (also check the diffs following). Don't think that should count, myself. --[[User:DarkfireTaimatsu|DarkfireTaimatsu]] 05:10, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

== RBY? ==

Wait a moment, where is ??? featured in RBY? As far as I can remember, some glitches had ???, but it says "Non-glitch" element, so I assume in the programming.. but still, it slightly weirds me out that it says "Generation I". [[User:TinaTheKirlia|TinaTheKirlia]] 16:12, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
:Because it was a glitch in Gen I, but not in Gen II onwards, I'm guessing.--[[User:Nebula|Nebula]] 17:09, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

== Arceus and Roost ==

It's been suggested that when a Sky Plate-holding Arceus uses the move Roost, it will turn into the ???-type Arceus. However, as the only way for Arceus to GET Roost is through hacking, I have not been able to test these claims yet. However, if anyone here manages to play out this scenario by hacking an Arceus that has the move, please edit the article accordingly should the theory be proven correct. --[[User:Mburusu|M. Burusu]] 08:02, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
:Well, then the same could happen to a Smeargle that Sketched Skill Swap and Roost, then swapped abilities with Kecleon. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 06:23, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
::THAT I could probably try out . . . but I don't think I have any Smeargle spare. I'll have to bring a friend into this . . . thanks for the suggestion! --[[User:Mburusu|M. Burusu]] 04:00, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
:::I hate to bump ancient conversations, but I tested this last night.

Test 1: Smeargle Skill Swapped Kecleon. Switched in Nidorino and used Peck, turning Smeargle to a Flying type. Smeargle used Roost and Nidorino used Peck again, trying to activate color change; if Roost had changed Smeargle to ???, Color Change would activate. It did not.

Test 2: Smeargle Skill Swapped Kecleon. Nidorino Pecked it. Switched in Magcargo that held Lagging Tail. Smeargle Roosted and Magcargo used Earth Power. KO'd Smeargle.

Test 3: Same as Test 2, except Magcargo used Rock Smash. No effectiveness message.

My findings; if a pure Flying-type uses Roost, it DOES lose the Flying typing. However, it does not gain the Normal type temporarily, nor any type against which Fighting is Super/Not Very Effective, for that matter. More testing is needed to be absolutely sure, but I think that a pure Flying type that uses Roost does indeed become the ??? type. [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] wants YOU! [[User:Missingno. Master/The Order of the Glitch/Bulbapedia Branch|Join the Order of the Glitch!]] [[User talk: Missingno. Master|(my talk page)]] 17:37, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
:UPDATE! Between Ground and Fighting, I was able to eliminate all types except Water, Fighting, and Dragon. I just conducted another test in which I used Meowth's Bite (eliminating Fighting), and Bibarel's Water Gun (eliminating Water and Dragon). Thusly, I can confirm that when Smeargle is a pure Flying type and uses Roost, its type becomes ???. I should maybe add this to the article? Also, since article names with question marks now work, I shall do with this what I did with the Generation III Glitch Pokémon and move this article to the correct title. If anyone disagrees, feel free to move it back. [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] wants YOU! [[User:Missingno.

== How much does anyone wanna bet... ==

That ???-type Arceus is what Arceus becomes in the reverse world? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 01:52, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I think there's going to be an event sometime after the Arceus event to get a special plate for the ???-type form. After all, Nintendo has demonstrated in the past that they can edit the coding of the Pokémon games (Berry Glitch Fix). A similar coding update could be used for the Apricorn Poké Balls from GSDS.

==???==
Doesn't redirect here. [[User:MathijsP|MathijsP]] 06:50, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

==Porygon?==

In Generation II, Porygon can learn Curse using the TM for it. I wonder if Porygon only knows Conversion and Curse, and it uses Conversion, if it has a chance of becoming the ???-type or if the game's coding ignores Curse when Conversion is used and doesn't do anything, either failing or executing with no effect since Porygon is already the type of Conversion. [[User:TorchicBlaziken|TorchicBlaziken]] 18:26, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
:If Porygon uses Conversion and if it only knows Curse, then Conversion fails. GameFreak kept that in mind. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 03:12, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

==??? type and Judgement ==

If Arceus would be holding a ??? plate and used Judgement, or if the Smeargle Roost/Skill swap would work, what would be the outcome? As this might be the only legit move capable of doing ??? type damage. [[User:Cake of Rage|Cake of Rage]] 20:53, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
:As there is no ??? plate, I don't think that's possible. I guess, with some fairly intensive hacking, we might be able to come up with something. --[[User:Martonimos|((Marton]] [[User talk:Martonimos|imos))]] 20:54, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
::I hacked a patch into the game with an item called "Test Plate". It boosts ??? type moves and would change arceus into ??? type. anyway i gave to arceus in three ways.

1) Gave to Arceus. Got into starly battle. Used judgement. It said "arceus used |-|-Z! and it acted as if it was a ground type move or something, because i repeated the test with bidoof and it said "Arceus used |-|-Z!" and it said "It's super effective!".

2) Gave to Arceus. Saved. Battled Cynthia. It said "Arceus used Judgement!" Then it said "It's super effective!" Lucario comes out. "arceus used judgement!" Then it was super effective again. all pokemon were One Hit KO'ed.

3) Gave to Arceus. Entered a Contest. Used judgement. It said arceus used J---?!!!" and the contest froze for a second. Then it came up with my 18th box on my PC, then I got into a wild battle with Linoone. Then it made me battle my rival (as at the battleground) then it took me back to the contest, where the game came up with the Contest Completed thingymobob. I had lost?! even though i was the only entrant. This is wierd! Then I saved and the game froze after I saved. Turned off and on and I was in Solacion town. My Test Plate was gone.

Hope that helped!!! [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK Leiks Lucario and The Celebi Glitch]] 17:45, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

== Um...no ==

Shadow moves in Pokémon XD aren't ??? type, they're ----- (or just "Shadow") type. Unlike ??? moves, they have Physical/Special differentiaiton, and they have type effectiveness (although not STAB). In fact, if you consider Shadow a type, then you have three-type Pokémon in XD. I think we need some kind of article on Shadown type, even if it doesn't include all that information. I'll make it tomorrow during lunch break if nobody esle wants to. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 03:05, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
:No, they're ???-type. There is no Shadow type. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 03:16, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
::I know that there's no 'Shadow' type, but the type of XD's Shadow Moves is NOT ???. In the space for a colored type bar, there's only a ------- (as opposed to Colloseum, which DID have the ??? bar).

In essence, that's what I said. I was correct: they have "-------" for a type. However, there's no way it can be ??? type becuse ??? type ''does not'' have super effective or not very effective. I called it 'Shadow' type in the same way [[-----]] is called DPBox. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 02:41, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

== eggs ==

How can an eg be a ??? type. It is is considered as such because you don't know what pokemon its going to be. The ???-type Arceus is different. {{unsigned|Hyurnat4}}
:Because ''technically'' the contents of the egg are unknown. So, the type that the Pokémon inside will be is also unknown...

== Statistical averages ==

OK, since we've established that Eggs are ???-type, and Arceus and Smeargle have the capability to become ???-type, might this warrant a statistical averages section? Perhaps, sans Arceus, since there is no legal way to get its type changed to ???? And I know I read somewhere that Eggs have base stats of 10 across the board, so that technically would count.

== Phys/Spec split ==

"Because they're not programmed to be either physical or special moves, even with a base power of 255 (the highest that the game allows), the move will do almost no damage."

== "Hacked ??? type moves in 2nd/3rd-gen games would always do very little damage" ==
...is this true? Because I'm pretty sure the games before the physical/special split determined whether a type was physical or special just based on where it was in the programming (types assigned to the numbers 00 through... I think it was 09 or so... were physical, types above that were special.)
I know I made some moves ???-type in a Gold/Silver ROM hack once years ago, and I don't remember them doing abnormally low amounts of damage, but it's been a while... so I can't say off the top of my head whether they worked normally or not. I do remember that Conversion 2 would crash the game if you tried to use it after being hit by an ???-type move, since ??? doesn't have any resistances defined for it. I've never tried it in the 3rd-gen games, though.
But anyway... the whole "since ??? type wasn't defined as physical or special, attacks of that type would always do very little damage" thing just doesn't sound likely to me. It sounds like the kind of thing someone would make up after the fact, not understanding how the old physical/special type system actually worked. Anyone have a source for this claim??

: While I can't say anything for Gen II, I can confirm that it's true for Gen III, as I've seen the code myself. It's a consequence of the fact that types, rather than moves, are assigned as physical or special. The damage calculator doesn't know whether to assign ???-type moves as physical or special (and thus, which set of offensive and defensive stats to use), and thus doesn't even try, simply returning 1 (not just "minimal" damage, exactly 1).--[[User:Goukazaru|Gou]] ([[User talk:Goukazaru|talk]]) 12:08, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

== Roost and Weather Ball ==

'''Roost''':As we've said [[Talk:Type#.22Typeless.22|here]], we can't be 100% perfectly sure without looking at the code, but I've done the research I said I might do, and it turns out that wherever it matters, it looks like Roost does '''not''' actually turn pure Flying types into ??? types in Gen IV. If it did make them that, the programmers took considerable effort to actively ''hide'' it wherever it matters, and that's just unlikely. It's far more likely people assumed it to be ???, just because all attacks are normally effective against it.

Basically, there are two equally easy ways to implement the effect so far known:
#If the user is (part) Flying-type, set the user's Flying type to ??? until the end of the turn
#Make an exception to ignore the Flying type when the user has used Roost this turn
Now, here's my information that ''clearly'' points to the second option, not the first:
*[http://upcarchive.playker.info/0/upokecenter/dex/index.html%3Flang=en&move=355.html UPC says], in Gen IV, "attacks against user are normally effective against the Flying type". From past experience, they are ''very very'' reliable at technicalities, and they apparently inspected the code. Were it Option 1, I believe they would have said "changes Flying to ???", not what they actually say.{{tt|*|Note that this isn't proof, and that their wording doesn't explicitly contradict Option 1}}
*When Ditto transforms to a pure Flying type in Gen IV that has just used Rest, it becomes Flying-type! We know Transform copies the target's ''current'' types (and just to be sure, I reconfirmed it while testing), and were the target ???, Ditto would become ??? (unless there's a very delibarate exception I mentioned earlier, one that is absent for Burn Up!). I just tested this, and a Fighting type move was not very effective against said Ditto.
I will point to this explanation when I will be adjusting pages accordingly within the next few days.

'''Weather Ball''':I have never played XD, but this page says Shadow Sky Weather Ball will change Color Change Pokémon to Normal type. Could someone confirm whether this is the case, and whether the game (or the battle engine) is roughly similar to core series? (Or at least answer whether it is countered by Counter a few sections up?) Unless there ''is'' a significant difference, that would point to it still being Normal-type, despite its type effectiveness always being 1x. It's basically the same case as Roost then, and I'd assume incautious ??? assumption as well. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 17:24, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

== Two Things ==

I may be blind, but it looks like it needs to be mentioned how the Mega Evolutions introduces in ORAS are not compatible with XY. However, Latios and Latias are. I'm not really sure the best way to word that so if someone could figured out a way to incorporate that it would be awesome. If I'm blind than I apologize for bringing this up.

Also, this was briefly talked about prior to ORAS release, but should the list of Mega Evolutions be changed a little? Right now it's two lists, the XY ones, and the ORAS ones. However, someone mentioned that we could put all of them in one list and add another column indicating the game they were released in.

== Primals ==

I don't know if this has been mentioned before (please forgive me if it has) but could we combine the Primal & Mega Evolution pages? I just think it would be simpler because 1. Mega Rayquaza is a counterpart to Primal Groudon/Kyogre, 2. Both evolutions need a specific item to activate, and none of those items have additional effects, and 3. Because Groudon and Kyogre have Primals, it's EXTREMELY unlikely that they'll get a Mega Evolution. Although now that I think about it, that goes for Keldeo, Meloetta, and Deoxys to some extent as well... Anyway, what do you think?

== I've a question ==

<blockquote>''As with both the Advanced Generation and Diamond & Pearl series before it, the Best Wishes series begins with only Ash Ketchum, headed off to a new region with his Pikachu.''</blockquote>
So far as I've seen, there is absolutely no confirmation that Ash will even be the ''main character'' in this series; Japanese fans are throwing around rumors that he's going to be taking Brock's role. So why is speculative crap like that being presented on this page as fact? We don't know anything about the series, and we shouldn't pretend that we do.

== About the series name again ==

I was looking at the seasons of the {{series|Diamond and Pearl}}. I want you guys to see the titles of the seasons during the series. I'll list them here:

*[[Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl]]
*[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl: Battle Dimension]]
*[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl: Galactic Battles]]
*[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl: Sinnoh League Victors]]

Notice how the titles changed after the initial season of DP. Instead of just being "Pokémon:", it became "Pokémon Diamond and Pearl:". So my question is, what happens if they do the same thing with Best Wishes?

It wasn't a real big deal because Diamond and Pearl was the name of the Japanese series. But what would happen if the season after [[Pokémon: Black & White!|Black & White!]] was named, for example, "Pokémon Black & White: Plasma Adventures"? I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be called "Pokémon Best Wishes: Plasma Adventures".

If it does happen, do we keep the series at the current title of "Best Wishes" or move it to "Black & White"? I realize it isn't something we have to worry about now, but it is something we should take in to consideration. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 06:04, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

== English Best Wishes Logo? ==

Someone should put the English logo for Bets Wishes in the article somewhere since the Japanese Logo is in there.

Here's the link to Cartoon Network's logo for Pokemon: Black & White! {{unsigned|Bellsprout}}

http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/d/d9/Black_and_White_anime_banner.png
:No. Black and White is the name of the 14th DUB season. The Japanese version does not use seasons, they use series, and series and seasons are not the same. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 20:05, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

== Kanto Roots ==

Wouldn't it be easier to just say that Best Wishes is a lot like Kanto in the Original series and then list them going down? Like this:
*The Best Wishes series is a lot like Kanto in the Original Series:
**Unlike Johto, Hoenn or Sinnoh, Ash starts off in his room doing similar things from EP001 in BW001.
**Like Kanto (and Johto as well), Ash has caught all three of the starter Pokémon of the region he is in.
**The Best Wishes series is fast-paced, much like Kanto was.
**Like Kanto, Ash travels with two gym leaders native to the region he is in.
***However, in Kanto it was the 1st and 2nd Gym Leaders (Brock & Misty respectively) and now it is the 1st and 8th Gym Leaders (Iris & Cilan respectively).
**Ash caught more than five Pokémon in Best Wishes which he hasn't done since Kanto.
***However, Ash got to pick which Pokémon to put in Professor Juniper's Laboratory in Best Wishes when in Kanto, Krabby went straight to Professor Oak.
So, that is what I have. Of course if that is too much, I can trim it down a little bit.[[User:Torpoleon|Torpoleon]] 13:17, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

:Iris isn't a Gym Leader in the Anime though. Plus, this is kind of vague to be trivia worthy. [[User:Zarthga|Zarthga]] 22:10, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
== Is this trivia worthy? ==

All main characters have a electric type Pokémon that will not evolve. either because it can't like [[Iris's Emolga]] and [[Cilan's Stunfisk]] or it doesn't want to like [[Ash's Pikachu]]. {{unsigned|Pokemonboy3000}}

Also 2 electric types are opposites Emolga is part flying while Stunfisk is part ground and the last one Pikachu is pure so its in the middle. {{unsigned|Pokemonboy3000}}

:Emolga nor Stunfisk evolve. Pikachu can't, but it doesn't. Not trivia worthy.[[User:Blitzamirin| ~ Blitzamirin ~ ]] 21:54, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Yes and Stunfisk and Emolga are the only non legendary electric types introduced in unova that don't evolve.--[[User:Pokemonboy3000|Pokemonboy3000]] 22:35, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
:Look, we are not supposed to add trivia and it's not notable. That's it. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 23:02, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

== Someday 'Best Wishes' page should be changed... ==

Since the second season of the 'Best Wishes' in North America is already out and called 'Pokémon Black and White: Rival Destinies', I am just thinking for future reference, that it's notable that America probably sees it as the 'Black and White' series. I'm not saying it should be changed now, however if the next season also has "Black and White" in the title, it should be more considered. [[User:Zarthga|Zarthga]] 22:06, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
:Series only apply to Japan, not the US. The US uses seasons, therefore this needs to remain as "Best Wishes". --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 22:14, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

::Ah, okay, I got it. [[User:Zarthga|Zarthga]] 22:16, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

== Outfitwise ==

Shouldn't it be noted that this is the first/only series where Ash is not wearing the main outfits from the other series in this one? He wore his AG outfit in the end of the original series, his original series outfit was seen in flashbacks of ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four]]'' (although one of the flashbacks was an error) and possibly in [[Max]]'s debut episode, and kept his AG outfit on during the [[DP001|first]] and [[DP002|second]] episode of Diamond and Pearl. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 19:19, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

== Season 2? ==

Shouldn't we be making a bigger deal of the fact Best Wishes is the first series where the Japanese version is split into seasons? Like, we've had Season 1, Season 2, and Season 2: Episode N, and Season 2: Decolora Adventures has been announced -- it kinda looks like seasons are here to stay.

So here's the thing, I have been looking through the next episode ([[BW123]]) on Pokémon.com and suddenly I was shocked to see that they renamed the 16th season to 'BW: Adventures in Unova and Beyond' to indicate that their journeys are not only in the Unova region anymore but to the Decolora Archipelago starting with BW123 onwards.

== Edit request ==

== Series name ==

The official series name is "Black & White" in English, so why does the wiki refer to it by its Japanese name? [[User:Jeangabin666|Jeangabin666]] ([[User talk:Jeangabin666|talk]]) 13:14, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

That's a good point, because at [[Talk:Pokémon Journeys: The Series|this talk page,]] [[User:GrammarFreak01|our grammar freak of a friend]] states that Bulbapedia uses English names for the series, despite Best Wishes not being close to Black & White in Japanese (if Google Translate is anything to go by, I'm Ugandan and don't speak Japanese, not sure how much my sister Anice Moriarty knows of Japanese as she does dubbing voice work in anime, but I'm sure if she knew any she'd confirm with me that Black & White and Best Wishes are not the same names.
So if we have to use English names, why is this page not called Black & White series?
I can understand with the Advanced Generation name that it refers to the fact that the Gen III games were on the GameBoy Advance, but last I checked, Black & White aren't on a gaming system called the Nintendo Best Wishes, now is it?
My point is that if [[User:GrammarFreak01|Grammar Freak]] is indeed correct, then why does this page have a Best Wishes in its name and not a Black & White, especially given both the series before and after it are named for the core-series games they are based on, that being Diamond & Pearl and X & Y?
At least with the Journeys Series (the one about to be released in English), that series is not based on specific core-series games, rather that one is all of them. This series, the BW Series is based on the Gen V games, that being Black & White and Black 2 and White 2, the latter which are sequels so Black & White. Therefore, Black 7 White series works just peachy keen, at least, if we're going to use English names it does.
Plus, Black & White series follows the name ofrmat of X series. Nice, huh?
So I ask you, beautiful and awesome people of 'da bulbapedia, a question burns in my African heart, Why is it Best Wishes series if we're using English names?
thank you.

:As KnightGalerie pointed out on that particular talk page already, GrammerFreak's claim is not entirely true: the wiki has traditionally used the Japanese names for series (or in the case of the original series, a fan nickname since it was simply called "Pocket Monsters" in Japan). XY and Sun & Moon share the same names for their series in both America and Japan, while Advanced Generation and Best Wishes do not. Technically speaking, Diamond & Pearl is based off the Japanese version of its name as well (even though the difference is very minor), with it using an "&" instead of an "and" in the title.

So, in the English dub, this is actually two series, not one. Unlike the other 4 series, we don't have iTunes or DVD releases to strongly reinforce this, but we do have Pokémon.com and some press releases. Most of this information only came out very recently.

"Pokémon the Series: The Beginning" comprises the US DVD seasons ''[[S01|Pokémon: Indigo League]]'' and ''[[S02|Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands]]'' ([http://web.archive.org/web/20150629133517/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/] [http://web.archive.org/web/20150717205128/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/]).

??? (type)

2020-07-06T02:08:55Z

Suic12-:

''For other uses of question marks in the [[Pokémon games]], see [[Question marks]].''
----
{{types|???}}
The '''??? type''' (Japanese: '''？？？タイプ''' ''??? type'') is a [[type]] that exists only in [[Generation]]s {{gen|II}}, {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|IV}}. It was removed in the [[Generation V]] games and has not returned.

==Battle properties==
{{typebattle|type=???}}

==Characteristics==
The ??? type is neutrally effective against all types, and all types are neutrally effective against it.

In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, the only ???-type move, {{m|Curse}}, is a {{OBP|Tough|condition}} move.

==In the games==
===Curse===
The move {{m|Curse}} was given the ??? type when introduced in [[Generation II]], likely because of its mysterious nature. It is so far the only move which completely differs in its use between Pokémon of different types. Its type was changed to the {{t|Ghost}} type in [[Generation V]].

{{m|Conversion}} cannot be used to become ???-type: {{m|Curse}}, the only move of this type, will be ignored by Conversion, such that if a Pokémon uses Conversion while the only other move it knows is Curse, Conversion will fail.

It is a {{type|Normal}} move in the early [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], but was changed to be a {{type|Ghost}} move in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]]. It was also a {{type|Normal}} move in all [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)]] games.

===Eggs===
[[Pokémon Egg]]s are displayed as being ???-type in [[Generation III]] on their status screen, to maintain the fact that the identity of the Pokémon inside is supposed to be unknown. This does not appear in [[Generation II]], which uses a special status screen for Pokémon Eggs different from that of normal Pokémon, and was removed in [[Generation IV]], when the section of a Pokémon's status screen that displays type was separated from where it was met. From Generation IV on, Eggs are considered as {{type|Normal}} Pokémon by the game.

===Weather Ball===
[[File:Weather Ball XD Unknown.png|thumb|200px|right|???-type {{m|Weather Ball}} in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]]]
{{m|Weather Ball}}'s type depends on the [[weather]]. If Weather Ball is used when the field is under the effect of {{weather|Shadow Sky}}, Weather Ball changes to a ???-type move. Despite this, if a Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}} is hit with this move under these conditions, it will be changed to a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

This situation is the only way to legitimately encounter the type effectiveness of a ???-type move.

===Arceus===
[[File:493-Unknown.png|frame|left|Normal-color sprite for ???-type Arceus]]
{{p|Arceus}} has the Ability {{a|Multitype}}, which changes its type and appearance depending on the [[Plate]] it is holding. Likely as a precaution for Arceus hacked to be ???-type, a ???-type sprite of Arceus is present in {{game5|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}; however, it is never otherwise used without hacking.
{{-}}

==In spin-off games==
===[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]===
The moves {{m|Wide Slash}}, {{m|Vacuum-Cut}}, and {{m|Excavate}} were all given the ???-type.

Though Excavate was an unused [[Status move]], Wide Slash and Vacuum-Cut were within the [[Physical move]] and [[Special move]] pools respectively.

Both of these moves could bypass {{a|Wonder Guard}} and did not bear [[STAB]] until [[Generation IV]], where it could be affected by {{a|Normalize}}.

All three of these would be cut in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]] and the games that followed.

==Other uses==
===Unrevealed types===
[[File:Eeveelutions unrevealed type.png|thumb|Promotional image showing Sylveon's type as ???]]
On official material, the ??? type can be used to denote a type that has not yet been revealed. Leading up to the release of [[Pokémon X and Y]], {{p|Sylveon}}'s type was listed as ??? on official material until its actual type was revealed to be {{t|Fairy}}.

==Retirement==
The ??? type is not present in the coding of the [[Generation V]] games, since Eggs had not displayed types from Generation IV onward and the type of {{m|Curse}} was newly changed to {{t|Ghost}}. This was possibly because it necessitated making many special cases that would otherwise be unnecessary. Since the only official use of the type at the time of its retirement was for a single non-damaging move, the type itself was essentially useless.

== New templates ==

Hey, you need to check with an admin before you implement a new template. We need to check that it'll work properly and that it's actually needed. In this case, I'm not sure it's needed - there's no real point in replacing some raw code on a page with a template designed to look identical. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 00:02, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

== Pain Split ==

Let me start by saying that it's always nice to see someone reliably do the research articles ask for. (For me at least, if only because I asked for it.)

Anyway, regarding {{m|Pain Split}}, my intention really was for someone to test Generation III specifically (and if Shell Bell does trigger there, maybe GenIV). It is known that it doesn't trigger in recent generations, know even confirmed once more. (I'm almost sure I also tested in FRLG not too long ago, though I couldn't find it in my notes, so I guess I'd be interested in RSE specifically.)

I've removed your Shell Bell statement for now because we still can't be too sure on RSE, but would imply otherwise (and also because I'm not too sure whether it would need an explicit mention if it only ever was unaffected, and because I'm really iffy on linking Pain Split and "damage"). But if Pain Split ''was'' affected by Shell Bell, I would argue that, due to Shell Bell's effects and in-game descriptions, it was the only known instance of a [[damage]]-dealing [[status move]]. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 14:39, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

:No problem, I don't have any Generation III games, but I have games from IV to VII, so I might test for some of those at least.
:Anyway, in order to not lead anyone to do redundant tests, it think it's a good idea to say somewhere in which games it was already tested. If not in the main article (since, as you say, it might not be worth mentioning if it doesn't trigger Shell Bell), at least in the talk page of Pain Split.

== [[Safeguard (move)‎]] ==

About your latest edit [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Safeguard_%28move%29&type=revision&diff=2943243&oldid=2942783 here], I hope you have verified the abilities you listed. Otherwise some know-it-all will blank out the entire statement if he finds that one of the abilities is incorrect. [[User:Eastern Goldfinch|Eastern Goldfinch]] ([[User talk:Eastern Goldfinch|talk]]) 19:25, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
:So far I have tested Static, Flame Body and Poison Point for generation IV. I cannot test for generation III vecause I don't have those games. I have plans to keep testing for consecutive generations as well. The point is that I noticed the abilities were all working the same way, plus I had the information already on the page (and the talk page). If you think we should test them individualy in generation III as well, we can change the page accordingly. [[User:Suic12-|Suic12-]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 03:06, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
::I have Emerald. I checked Static and Flame Body. Yes Safeguard does not stop them in the same way as it does not stop Effect Spore. I think I don't have any enemy Pokémon with Poison Point in Emerald. [[User:Eastern Goldfinch|Eastern Goldfinch]] ([[User talk:Eastern Goldfinch|talk]]) 19:42, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
:::Good to know you could test them. I also confirmed Effect Spore isn't blocked in gen IV. Interestingly, in generation V all these abilities didn't activate after lots of tests, so the behavior probably changed.
:::On a different subject, since you have generation III game(s), maybe you would be interested in helping research the moves in [[:Category:Moves in need of research|this list]]. I've been testing lots of the effects, but there is not much I can do about generation III games, so I could use some help for those. [[User:Suic12-|Suic12-]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 22:51, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
::::Which of them is Gen 3? Do you know? [[User:Eastern Goldfinch|Eastern Goldfinch]] ([[User talk:Eastern Goldfinch|talk]]) 18:20, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
:::::Among them we have {{m|Assist}}, {{m|Bide}}, {{m|Conversion 2}}, {{m|Mimic}} and {{m|Pain Split}}, to name a few. There are others, but you can always go to the move's page and check the research template, it will say which generations need tests (and if it doesn't say, it means it may need tests for all generations).

== Run Away ==

In [[Special:Diff/2968324|your edit summary]], you mentioned that you had tested some of the mechanics. Just wondering whether you specifically tested both the player's Pokémon and the wild Pokémon having Run Away. In Gen V only, the Smoke Ball does not allow a wild Pokémon to flee with Teleport (but it does allow the player's Pokémon to do so), so I would expect Run Away to exhibit similar behavior.

Also, I haven't tested how roaming Pokémon and the Aether Paradise Nihilego interact with Run Away/Smoke Ball, and that would be worth investigating as well. Did you look into any of these? --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 10:48, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

:The part I tested was whether the player's Pokémon having Run Away would guarantee escape when it fainted and the player was given the option to flee. And from what I saw it did guarantee in generation IV, but not anymore in generation V. When I looked at [[Escape]]'s page, it seemed to me that everything asked in Run Away's page was already answered there. It honestly didn't occur to me that there could be a difference using Teleport if it the user was the player's Pokémon or a wild one, but now that you said so I have an idea on how to test it, so I'll let you know when I find out.
:About the roaming Pokémon and Nihilego, no, I didn't test for them. I'm already past those points in the games. I'm keeping a list of things I'll test when I decide to reset some of the games, so I'll add those to the list (although I'm not sure that I'll reset anytime soon). [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 13:53, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

== Synchronize in SOS Battles ==

I would've used the Synchronize talk page if I could make sure you saw it, but regarding [[Special:Diff/2994633|your recent edit there]], would you have a source for the 50% (and, by extension, for the bug), for I believe it should probably be referenced within the article!? The text now reads as if the 50% chance either always applies, or never. Are you sure it is not a case-by-case coin flip? And while I'm here, would you maybe like to edit the SOS page appropriately? Thanks. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:29, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
:Honestly, in that edit I was just transcribing what the article already said, or at least what I understood from what was written. But it did get me curious, so I later tested that bug in the conditions described.
:I had a Pokémon with Synchronize in the second slot of my party and a Pokémon with a different nature in the first slot. When entering a wild battle I would switch to the Pokémon with Synchronize and wait for the wild Pokémon to call an ally, and after that capture the ally. I repeated that until I had caught six allies, four of which had the same nature as the Pokémon that was originally in the first slot of my party, and the other two had random natures. Although this is not a high enough number of tests to determine the odds precisely, there is definitely a chance lower than 100% and higher than 0% that Synchronize will force the ally to have the nature of the first Pokémon, and that makes me believe it works with the same percentage as the out of battle effect.
:I still intend to test what would be an ally's nature if the Pokémon with Synchronize was in the first slot all along, but that's what I have for now. I may edit the SOS page after I finish this other test. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 15:48, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
::Ok, I just thought for a moment you knew of a Smogon post or something where someone explained technicalities.
::But when you say you just transcribed what you thought was there, that means you didn't intentionally say there's a 50% chance all subsequent allies in that battle will synchronize and a 50% chance that none will? That's what I came here for, the rest makes sense, but this one had me wonder. I mean, you could theoretically test it (such as by battling Elgyem in USUM with Lax or Gentle nature Pokémon in the first slot and switching between Download Pokémon, probably there's even an easier setup), but if you didn't mean to say that, it's so unlikely that I guess noone needs to really. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:58, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
:::Yeah, I didn't really mean that subsequent allies would either all have the Synchronized nature or all have a random nature, I was imagining each ally having an independent chance of having a Synchronized nature or not. As you said, it seems unlikely for it to be the first way, but I may end up testing it eventually. Meanwhile, if you think it would be better, you could change the wording of the Synchronize page to make it more clear that (theoretically) each ally has an independent chance of having a Synchronized nature. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 18:03, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
::::Thanks. I'm satisfied with the new wording you appear to have introduced, it's certainly way better in my opinion, yes. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 17:15, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

== Yes, I made a mistake ==

I got confused [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Togetic_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&diff=3140929&oldid=3139808 on this], my apologies. -- [[User:Genoskill|Genoskill]] ([[User talk:Genoskill|talk]]) 05:08, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

== Color Change ==

I tested the dual-type properties of Color Change in White 2, I gave Color Change to Cobalion and used Circle Throw twice. The first time it didn't activate, and the second time was still super-effective meaning it didn't silently activate either. I didn't test in generation 4, so it's still possible that it also doesn't affect dual-types in generation 4. {{unsigned|Kermalis}}
:Well, that is interesting. Since we can't yet be sure at which generations this is the case, I slightly changed the wording at the Color Change page and put a research template. I'll see if I can get to test this effect in some other generations in the following days. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 02:22, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

== Pain Split ==

Hey, I just wanna ask whether you have tested the Color Change interaction in different generations (or otherwise have solid knowledge about it)? It wasn't clear based on your edit summary; if you haven't, I might try to do some tests some time later. I think asking whether it triggers Color Change (in any generation) is a valid research question, it's not like there's an inherent universal rule that says "status moves cannot do damage". And whatever the result may be (I admit there's a high chance it is what we all think it is), I personally believe both pages should reflect it. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 17:48, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
:I tested it in Generations VI and VII, and it seems that {{user|Kermalis}} tested in Generation V. I also have tested Color Change and Pain Split separetly in some other ocasions in Ganeration IV, and everything so far indicates that Color Change activates from damage-dealing moves and that Pain Split doesn't directly deal damage, which is why I concluded that this is the general pattern. If you think it still deserves to be tested in the Generations left, then we can put back the research template, but I see no reason to believe it would be different.
:About having the information in both pages, I don't really oppose to it, but I saw that even pages of moves like Future Sight and Doom Desire, that have changed whether they trigger Color Change or not, don't say so in their own pages, instead leaving it to the Color Change page, so I didn't think that a move that (supposedly) didn't change that mechanic would need to mention it. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 19:11, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
::Alright, thanks.
::What I was trying to argue is that there's a tautologic aspect, "dealing damage" is not particularly well defined (AFAIK), it's basically defined like "damage triggers <X/Y/Z>, so if <X/Y/Z> isn't triggered, it's not damage" (that might be equivalent to "damage is what uses some routine"). But that's based on observation, it's not law or something; it shouldn't be an axiom you base your deductions on. So yeah, I believe it would need to be proven independently (even though, as I said, it probably isn't different).
::Fair enough (although I think symmetry for interactions is generally a good thing). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 19:41, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
:::Just to let you know, I finally managed to test this for generations III and IV, and indeed Pain Split still didn't activate Color Change. Since Kecleon isn't in generation VIII (at least yet), that pretty much settles it for now. I'll leave it up to you if you want to mention it in Pain Split's page, but if you decide to do so, I think it would be a good idea to also mention in Future Sight's and Doom Desire's pages in which generations they do/don't activate Color Change.

== Weather Ball ==

Hey, it's me again. I just noticed that you tested Weather Ball in XD not too long ago. Could you have a look at [[Talk:??? (type)]], and/or answer whether there is any in-game evidence that it's "???"? Without such evidence, as I said, I believe it's typeless but Normal type (plus I'd have zero reason to favor "???" over "Shadow" type). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:02, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
:It would also help if you had some damage comparisons. Does the move actually double in power, is there still STAB, is the power increased by [[shadowy aura]], etc.? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:29, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
::Hey there. For what I saw so far, there wasn't really any way to distinguish it being a ???-type move or a typeless Normal move. I hadn't thought about it this way before, but it actually makes some sense, given that we know that in those conditions it is a physical move that turns a Pokémon with Color Change into the Normal type (this last bit I didn't test, I'm going by what we've got on the articles here). At the time I tested it I ended up not even testing type effectiviness; even though it was normally effective every time, it didn't hit any Rock, Steel or Ghost type Pokémon. For what it's worth (and it's probably not a lot), it seems that the game programmers really wanted to show off Weather Ball's properties under a shadowy aura, because besides it having a unique animation for the situation, the very first time there is a battle against a Pokémon that knows Shadow Sky, that Pokémon's ally is a Castform with Weather Ball (all trainer battles are double battles).
::I believe calling it a Shadow type move wouldn't be very accurate, because in XD shadow moves are super effective against all non shadow Pokémon, and not very effective against all shadow Pokémon, while Weather Ball is normally effective regardless.
::About doing some damage comparisons, I can sure try to test some of these, but it's likely going to take a while. Past that first battle, the setup is very hard to put together, due to the limited variety of Pokémon available in XD, and considering it's kind of complicated to trade in emulators. All I can say form the tests I already performed is that it deals qualitatively more damage under shadowy aura than in clear weather. Anyway, I'll let you know when I test anything more about all this. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 13:23, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
:::Alright, I didn't consider that shadow moves are super effective (I never played XD tbh).
:::It's [[Snattle]], right? There's a second battle against him, as far as I can tell!? I watched some playthroughs, but the majority just OHKOs Castform, so that didn't help at all. Comparing numbers shouldn't be that hard, I think we're talking ×1.33 vs. ×2 (double power,no more STAB vs. double power,STAB) here, right? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 17:32, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
::::Yeah, it's Snattle. I imaagined there would be another battle against him, but I didn't realize he would have another Pokémon with Shadow Sky. And I haven't yet gone to Citadark Isle to battle him again, so that's good news. Once I get there it may take a couple of tries, but it shouldn't be too hard after all. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 18:37, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
:::::Well, I finally got to the battle. I managed to get Castform to hit the same Pokémon with Weather Ball four times, two in clear weather and two in shadowy aura. For clear weather the damage was 21 HP both times, and for shadowy aura was 30 HP and 33 HP. The numbers don't exatly match either scenario (x1.333 or x2), but they are much closer to x1.333, and I believe they are within the error from the random component of the damage formula. As a side note, I also confirmed that Weather Ball in shadowy aura is normally effective against Rock-type Pokémon, so no surprise here. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 03:35, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
::::::Thanks a lot! It could be ×1.33 and just random variance, yes (although it appears to be ×1.5). Anyway, I think I'm gonna edit the pages some time soon (unless you want to). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 11:14, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
:::::::You're welcome! I think I'll leave the edits for you, I'm not sure what exactly I would change to reflect these results. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 12:52, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

'''Rockruff''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イワンコ''' ''Iwanko'') is a {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Lycanroc}} starting at level 25. The {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Lycanroc|form}} it evolves into depends on the game it evolves in and on the time at which it evolves.

'''Generation VII'''
* In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, Rockruff evolves into Midday Form Lycanroc when [[level]]ed up in the [[Time|day]].
* In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}, Rockruff evolves into Midnight Form Lycanroc when [[level]]ed up at [[Time|night]].
* In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, a Rockruff with {{a|Own Tempo}} evolves into Dusk Form Lycanroc when [[level]]ed up from 5 pm to 5:59 pm in in-game time (which is opposite the real time in Pokémon Ultra Moon).
'''Generation VIII'''
* Rockruff evolves into Midday Form Lycanroc when [[level]]ed up in the [[Time|day]].
* Rockruff evolves into Midnight Form Lycanroc when [[level]]ed up at [[Time|night]].
* A Rockruff with {{a|Own Tempo}} evolves into Dusk Form Lycanroc when [[level]]ed up from 7 pm to 7:59 pm in real-time.

==Biology==
Rockruff is a quadruped, canine Pokémon. It is primarily light brown with a darker brown muzzle, paws, and ear tips. It has large blue eyes, {{wp|Canine terminology#Ears|button ears}}, a short muzzle with a triangular pink nose, and a short tuft of fur on each cheek. Around its neck is a ruff of grayish-white fur stubbed with dark brown pebbles. The dark brown markings on its paws extend to a thin point on each wrist and ankle. It has a grayish-white tail that curls tightly over its back and is covered in fluffy fur.

Rockruff has an excellent sense of smell and will never forget an odor after smelling it once. There are tales of it reuniting with its Trainer after becoming lost by following the faintest traces of scent. It has lived with humans since ancient times. Rockruff is often recommended as a good beginner due to its friendly nature. It can bond with Trainers easily. However, Rockruff is said to be a challenging Pokémon to raise, to the point where some Trainers abandon it due to being unable to handle it. This Pokémon is very sociable and will greet others by rubbing them with the rocks around its neck. As it ages, Rockruff becomes wilder and more independent. Once it is close to evolving, it will begin to howl when the sun goes down. It has been said to leave its Trainer's side and return once it has evolved. A persistent Pokémon, it will keep going until it outlasts foes that are even more powerful.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/rockruff/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Rockruff]</ref> Rockruff intimidates opponents by using the rocks on its neck to hit the ground. As mentioned in [[SM015|the anime]], its trains itself by running around. It attacks foes the moment they flinch. It has been known to fight with {{p|Growlithe}} over territory.

A Flying Pikachu can be found in {{pw|Yellow Forest}}, an event-only [[Pokéwalker]] course. This Pikachu, when caught, can be transferred to either [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|Pokémon HeartGold or SoulSilver]]. However, this Pikachu must forget Fly in order to be transferred to [[Generation V]].

===In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu!]]===
[[File:Floaty Fall VII.png|thumb|250|{{ga|Partner Pokémon|Partner Pikachu}} using {{m|Floaty Fall}} in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu!]]]]
While no Pikachu can learn Fly in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! or Let's Go, Eevee!]], in the former game, the player's {{ga|Partner Pokémon|Partner Pikachu}} can use the [[Secret Technique]] Sky Dash. When using this Technique, the player and their partner ride on a seat lifted by balloons to a town they have been to before, effectively replacing the overworld function Fly used to have.

In addition to the Secret Technique, Partner Pikachu can learn the exclusive move {{m|Floaty Fall}}, likely inspired by Flying Pikachu.

===In events===
In addition to the methods mentioned above, Flying Pikachu have often been distrubuted directly through events. The following is a listing of Flying Pikachu events:

==In the spin-off games==
===In {{g|Snap}}===
A nod to the Flying Pikachu can be found in the game's fifth level, [[Pokémon Island Cave|the Cave]], where it is referred to as '''Balloon Pikachu'''. If the Zubat carrying Pikachu is hit with a Pester Ball, it will fly off and Pikachu will fall. However it spawns a group of balloons that carry it to safe ground. Taking a picture while Pikachu is drifting down will earn lots of points.

===In {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} and [[Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!|Pokémon Card GB2]]===
{{TCG ID|Wizards Promo|Flying Pikachu|25}} is an obtainable card in both {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} and [[Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!|Pokémon Card GB2]]. In the first game, the player can obtain a copy by trading a {{TCG ID|GB|Ditto|1}} card with [[Tsunekazu Ishihara|Mr. Ishihara]]. In the latter game, the player can obtain two copies by trading a {{TCG ID|Fossil|Zapdos|15}} card and a {{TCG ID|Vending|Clefairy|S1}} card with Ishihara. The second card is a variant originally released in Japan as a special card through All Nippon Airways in 1998

===In {{g|Dash}}===
A Flying Pikachu was featured in [[Pokémon Dash]] in special courses.

===In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]]===
The flying Pikachu appeared in [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]]. By typing in a certain code, a set of balloons are unlocked, which can then be used by Pikachu so he can play [[Pelipper's Circle Circuit]] and [[Salamence's Air Ace]].

Unlike Surfing Pikachu, Flying Pikachu has a unique appearance in this game, based on its appearance in the TCG.

'''Shadow Shed''' (Japanese: '''ダークリムーブ''' ''Dark Remove'') is one of several [[Shadow move]]s available only in {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}. Like other Shadow moves, it is forgotten and replaced with another move once the Pokémon is [[Purification|purified]].

==Effect==
Shadow Shed removes the effects of {{m|Safeguard}}, {{m|Reflect}}, and {{m|Light Screen}} from the battle. It affects both parties.

As [[Shadow Pokémon]] cannot be traded, and since [[Pokémon Contest]]s do not exist in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, Shadow Shed cannot be used in Contests.
