== Has anyone tried... ==

What happens if you give the Forecast ability to a pokemon that isn't Castform? Like, through Trace or Ability Swap or whatever? [[User:MyGolden|MyGolden]] 03:28, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
:Probably nothing... --[[Special:Contributions/Kenji-girl|☆]][[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 03:30, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
Was this verified? [[User:Yenreb|Yenreb]] 04:22, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Or what if you gave a Pokemon this ability that isn't Castform, through methods such as hacking the games programming? [[User:Pawsrent|Pawsrent]] 23:32, 2 May 2010 (UTC)Pawsrent

'''Canalave City''' (Japanese: '''ミオシティ''' ''Mio City'') is a city in the [[region]] of [[Sinnoh]]. Canalave City is a port city that is bisected by a canal. It has an air of exotic and foreign culture. Large ships are moored at the piers. In the old days, the port used to be a hub of cargo transportation. The [[Move Deleter]] is in a house on the east side of town. The [[Canalave Library]] has many books on [[Sinnoh myths]]. The ferry in the canal will take people out to [[Iron Island]] and [[Fullmoon Island]] and sometimes [[Newmoon Island]].

==Geography==
===Canalave Library===
{{main|Canalave Library}}

The Canalave Library is found in the north-western side of Canalave City. It is the only library in [[Sinnoh]] and it has shelves of books, containing [[Sinnoh myths|the myths of Sinnoh]]. It is the place the player, the {{ga|Barry|rival}}, {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}}, and [[Professor Rowan]] meet up before the player goes to [[Lake Valor]].

The upper floors of the library have the same layout as the lower floors, except that most of the books on the bookshelves can be read. These books are very philosophical and go in-depth into the history and existence of the [[Pokémon world]] as known. These books are considered [[Sinnoh myths]], that many people, such as [[Cynthia]], believe and study by. These books include, the Sinnoh Myth, which refers to {{p|Mesprit}}, the Sinnoh Region's Mythology, which explains why wild Pokémon appear in grass, the Sinnoh's Myth, which explains the existence of the [[lake guardians]], the Veilstone's Myth, which tells a story about a young swordsman encountering {{p|Giratina}}, The Original Story, which explains the origin of the [[Pokémon world]], A Horrific Myth, which tells a horrible tale about the [[lake guardians]], and several other Sinnoh Folk Tales.

Canalave Library is a small library. There are shelves and shelves of different books surrounding several reading tables and chairs. There is a sign that informs people that eating and drinking are prohibited. Not much happens on the lower floors, however people can be seen here reading about Pokémon and other books.

===Move Deleter===
{{main|Move Deleter}}

The Move Deleter is located on the east side of the city, near the seaside. He is the only Move Deleter in the [[Sinnoh]] region. Although not a hugely important place to visit, the Move Deleter is helpful for deleting moves that can't be deleted otherwise.
He is a very forgetful man, and lives alone. For no charge, the Move Deleter will make a [[Pokémon]] forget a [[move]] it knows. This is the only way for a Pokémon to forget [[HM]] moves such as {{m|Cut}} or {{m|Fly}}. In order to delete an HM move, one must first have another Pokémon with that same move in order for it to be deleted. This is done so that a player will not get stuck in an area where an HM move is required to continue. In addition, a Pokémon's move will not be forgotten if it is the only move it knows.

===Sailor Eldritch's house===
A local Sailor called [[Eldritch]] lives in a small house near the pier with his wife and young son. He works at the docks of Canalave City, which is just outside his house, and operates the boat that can take people to a variety of destinations, among them [[Iron Island]] and [[Fullmoon Island]]. After obtaining the National Pokédex, the player finds that Eldritch's son has been stricken by nightmares and cannot awaken, thrashing in his sleep, saying ''"<sc>Dar</sc>... <sc>Dark</sc>... Is watching me..."''. To cure the boy, the player must go to [[Fullmoon Island]] with Eldritch's help and retrieve a [[Lunar Wing]], which will cure his son.

===Harbor Inn===
The mysterious Harbor Inn is located on the north-eastern side of the Canalave City, and was a thriving inn until it mysteriously closed down for many years. Now the doors remain locked and no one can seem to open them. Before obtaining the Member Card trying to enter the Harbor Inn only yields the phrase ''The door is tightly shut. It appears impossible to open.'' The only way to unlock the inn is by obtaining a [[Member Card]] via a [[Nintendo Event]] or [[cheating]]. When inside, there is a man who puts people into a deep sleep. Once they awake, they will appear at [[Newmoon Island]], where {{p|Darkrai}} can be battled.

==Canalave Gym==
{{main|Canalave Gym}}

The Canalave Gym is the official [[gym]] of Canalave City. It is based on {{type2|Steel}} [[Pokémon]]. The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Byron]]. [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainers]] who defeat him receive the [[Badge#Mine Badge|Mine Badge]]. The Canalave City Gym is a four-story tall building made of steel platforms, lifts, and moving metal platforms. Trainers must ride the elevators and moving platforms in a certain order to reach the fourth floor, on which Byron waits. For defeating [[Byron]], trainers receive the [[Badge#Mine Badge|Mine Badge]], {{TM|91|Flash Cannon}}, and the ability to use {{m|Strength}} outside of battle.

*In the anime, Canalave City is located on a chain of islands.
*Canalave's Japanese town motto is {{tt|みなもにはえるまち|Town that rises from the water's surface}}.
*The son of the sailor who owns the boat that normally goes to [[Iron Island]] says ''"<sc>Dar</sc>... <sc>Dark</sc>... Is watching me..."'' during his unending nightmare that begins the {{p|Cresselia}} event. He most likely means {{p|Darkrai}}.

Talk:Shedinja (Pokémon)

2010-11-13T08:40:01Z

Wisp82: /* Shedsturdy */ new section

== HP ==

Does the HP of Shedinja ever raise above one with leveling? {{unsigned|Viridis.net@gmail.com}}

Nope. It stays 1 forever. --[[User:Zeta|Zeta]] 19:07, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

The article says the only way to know Shedinja's HP IV is finding out its "brother" Ninjask IV, but couldn't we figure it out by knowing Hidden Power type and power? [[User:Diby esp|Gabriel Rocha (Diby esp)]] 23:49, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
:I think you are confusing {{stat|HP}} and {{m|Hidden Power|HP}}. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 23:52, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
::But isn't {{m|Hidden Power|HP}} determined by IVs such as {{stat|HP}}'s? [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|You enter a poorly lit room...]] 23:57, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
:::{{m|Hidden Power}}'s type and power depend on every stat IV. If you know the Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense and Speed IV, then knowing our Shedinja's Hidden Power type and power would take us to an obvious conclusion of its HP IV, wouldn't it? [[User:Diby esp|Gabriel Rocha (Diby esp)]] 00:43, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
::::No, it wouldn't. The formula for calculating the strength and type of Hidden Power relies only on the IVs modulo 2 and modulo 4. For example, if you could change a Shedinja's HP IV from 1 to 29, the type and power of Hidden Power would not change. This is because 1 and 29 are congruent modulo 2 and modulo 4. For more information, see the "Number of possible Hidden Powers" section of the Hidden Power calculation article. [[User:Ali 247|Ali 247]] 17:53, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

== Best type? ==

Due to Shedinja's ability, Wonder Guard, is there any combined set of types that would leave it immune to damage (not counting status-affecting moves and weather)? [[User:Casmith 789|Casmith 789]] 15:18, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
:Dark/Ghost and Ghost/Dark, the types of {{p|Spiritomb}} and {{p|Sableye}}, combine to have no weakness (except when Foresight, Odor Sleuth, and/or Miracle Eye are used). Neither of them have Wonder Guard, though. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 03:09, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
::Thanks, after finally catching a Spiritomb I figured this out for myself! [[User:Casmith 789|Casmith 789]] 08:46, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
maybe it would be more usable with the Focus Sash?- ''unsigned comment from [[User:Logicalfighter666|Logicalfighter666]] ([[User talk:Logicalfighter666|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Logicalfighter666|contribs]]){{ #if: | {{{2}}} |}}''
there would be no such thing as a super effective attack.
:::It's completely impossible to be immune from damage, no matter what one does. Even a (hacked, let's say) Dark/Ghost-type with Wonder Guard would be hurt by weather attacks. Since you can't combine Air Lock and Wonder Guard, it is impossible to not take any damage. [[User:LordArceus|'''Lord''']][[User talk:LordArceus|'''Arc''']][[Special:Contributions/LordArceus|'''eus''']] 14:40, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
::::Double Battle. But you are right that it is impossible to be immune from damage: status damage. [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|Nos hablamos?]] 14:43, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

== Poke ball ==

Ive tried evolving a nincada twice in my diamond game and it only gave me a shedinja the second time after id bought a poke ball, in both instances i had a spare space in my party.
Perhaps you only need a poke ball in diamond/pearl?- ''unsigned comment from [[User:Itxi|Itxi]] ([[User talk:Itxi|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Itxi|contribs]]){{ #if: | {{{2}}} |}}''
:I've always done it with an extra Pokéball. --[[User:DarkfireTaimatsu|DarkfireTaimatsu]] 08:59, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
::I was wondering because in the trivia section it states that one isnt needed. --[[User:Itxi|Itxi]] 09:02, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
:::Then where does the Pokéball in my inventory go once I've obtained Shedinja, hmm? --[[User:DarkfireTaimatsu|DarkfireTaimatsu]] 09:09, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
::::Presicely, I just thought it might be better to start a discussion on it first than just deleting the text. --[[User:Itxi|Itxi]] 09:11, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::You're wrong. I just tested it out. I got a Nincada in my party with an extra slot. I didn't have any Poké balls. When it evolved, I still got a Shedinja. If a Poké ball dissapears when you get a Shedinja then you're being ripped off. --[[Special:Contributions/Kenji-girl|☆]][[Tracey Sketchit|ケンジ]][[User:Kenji-girl|ガール]] 09:20, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
::::::What game are you playing? I said that i tried it with a pokeball and without and it only works with. This is on Diamond --[[User:Itxi|Itxi]] 09:28, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::::This is Emerald. I don't know. Maybe the mechanics are different in in Diamond. But you definetly don't need a Poké Ball in Emerald.
::::::::Hopefully that edit covers it all :) --[[User:Itxi|Itxi]] 09:36, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::::::We may want to clarify that the Poké Ball needed must be an actual Poké Ball and not any other type of Ball, eg. Great Ball, Net Ball, or Dusk Ball. [[User:ESeamus|ESeamus]] 07:41, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::: I was bold and edited it. [[User:Lady BlahDeBlah|Lady BlahDeBlah]] 11:29, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::::I think that maybe Eseamus was right, because a friend of mine tried it with a great ball, and it didn't work. [[User talk:Dolphin2|Dolphins]] [[User:Dolphin2|are]] [[Special:Contributions/Dolphin2|awesome]] (and [[Vulpix (Pokémon)|Vulpix]] are too) 19:16, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

== Recent Edit ==

Is the whole thing about the hole in the back being visible needed? I mean, of course it's going to be visible, your looking at it from a behind perspective, AND it is a video game, they don't steal your soul. --[[User:Midnight Celtic|Midnight Celtic]] 18:39, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
:Well, how it appears in the anime would be way more realistic. You're right, if you die in a bloody video for example, or get hurt, you're perfectly fine in real life. So I think that trivia is pretty pointless, it's not like it's a goof. [[User:TheBlazikenMaster|TheBlazikenMaster]] 11:20, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
::I think it's wrong because you have to look insde the hole, not look at it from afar. the back sprite shows it from afar, whereas if you wanted your soul to be stolen, you would have to put your eye up close to Shedinja... XD. I'll remove it. [[User:Tesh|'''TESH''']][[User_talk:Tesh|'''IGIGAS''']] 11:34, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
:::I removed it weeks ago... somebody must have added it again...[[User:Crystallucario|'''''Crystal''''']] [[User talk:Crystallucario|'''''Lucario''''']] 11:50, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

== Breeding ==

If you breed a Shedinja with a Ditto, will you get a Nincada or another Shedinja? It doesn't say anywhere on the page. Since Shedinja is just Nincada's old exoskeleton brought to life, it would be weird if it could produce a whole new Nincada on its own. - [[User:Buddy Christ|Buddy Christ]] 22:44, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
:Last time I checked Shedinja doesn't have a gender, and I somehow doubt that a Ditto can breed the genderless as it has gender last time I remember. You can prove me wrong, it has been a long time since I last checked. [[User:TheBlazikenMaster|TheBlazikenMaster]] 22:32, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
::Ditto can breed with the genderless, otherwise we'd have no {{p|Phione}}, no baby {{p|Porygon}}, and a heck of a lot of problems. It's the genderless that can't interbreed. Ditto makes it all possible (unless you're in the {{egg2|No eggs}}). It results in a Nincada, same as if you bred the Ninjask. The only odd thing is... Shedinja is in the {{egg2|Mineral}}... Nincada and Ninjask are in the {{egg|Bug}}... '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 02:47, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
:::Ditto is genderless(random comment).[[User:Kkllnn|Blastoise RULZ]] 21:07, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

== Scrappy or Foresight will onlywork with Mold Breaker ==
As they aren't super-effective even after Foresight (and Fighting wouid even be "resisted"). --[[User:Gorebyss|Gorebyss]] 08:21, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

== Focus Sash ==

what would happen when focus sash is equipped to shedy? [[User:Atomix26|Atomix26]] 19:08, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
:It can withstand one hit that would otherwise faint it. — [[User:Laoris|Laoris]] ([[User_Talk:Laoris|Blah]]) 19:17, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
::Yes, since Focus Sash is only one use. But if you equip Focus Band, then it's possible it could survive for a lot longer. Of course, it's equally possible it'll die on the first hit.--[[User:Celebi96|Celebi96]] 00:40, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

== Gender ==
When I use the name rater, despite being genderless, Shedinja will have a gender when we write a new nickname. Wouldn't that be a nice information for trivia? [[User:Diby esp|Gabriel Rocha (Diby esp)]] 02:19, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
:I have confirmation of this... If someone can determine where the gender comes from this would be great. At the moment I'm picking the same gender as your Nijask. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 03:24, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

== Flail and Reversal ==
I know it's impossible for a Shedinja to have either of these moves without hacking, but supposed one was hacked to have either of these moves... would it have 20 Power because it's at max HP, or would it have 200 power because it only has 1 HP? --[[User:Derian|Derian]] 16:36, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
:That's probably the reason why it's impossible. [[User:Valorum27|Valorum27]] 00:04, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

== Breeding generation 4 ==

I've managed to teach my nincada/ shedinja toxic by breeding from a dustox in emerald. if someone wants to verify this works of generation 4 games, too and add it to the page it'd be nice.
:Nincada can learn Toxic by TM. TM moves known by the father are passed down to the egg if the egg's species is capable of learning the TM, regardless of whether the father learned it by TM or not. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 20:16, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

What about with an HP Up?--[[User:Dratini Egg|Dratini Egg]] 20:18, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
:It's HP is ''always'' 1, regardless of IV and EVs. HP Ups just add EVs, which are completely ignored for Shedinja's HP. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 02:43, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

== Shinyness ==

If this is already in the article, i must not have noticed, but...

-Will a shiny Nincada always produce a shiny Shedinja when it evolves?
-If the Nincada is not shiny, is there a chance the Shedinja will be anyway? [[User:Flyingtypefan|Flyingtypefan]] 05:27, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
:To answer your first question, yes. A shiny Nincada will produce a shiny Shedinja. It also answers your second question. No. A normal Nincada will never make a shiny Shedinja. Because of identical values and such. I'm not good with that stuff. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 05:22, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

I don't mean immune to being Poisoned, I mean immune to taking damage after being Poisoned. I was curious because it seems kind of weird for it to be immune to Poison damage without being immune to any other non-super-effective damage. [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 19:20, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
:Actually, Poison hasn't been super effective to Bug since Gen I. And furthermore, Shedinja's Ghost type would made it '''resist''' Poison.--[[User:Dennou Zenshi|でんのう]] ☢ [[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|'''Z'''えんし]] 19:27, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Is it me, or in gen III's back sprite, the gap is at the front, and in the gen IV back sprite, the gap is at the back? Shouldn't this belong in the trivia? [[User:FrozenStrategy|FrozenStrategy]] 20:51, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

There are several egg moves listed for Shedinja...but since it is genderless, how can it learn those moves? [[User:DisgruntledGoat|DisgruntledGoat]] 23:25, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Legendary Pokémon

2010-10-18T12:54:29Z

Wisp82: /* Trivia */

{{Samename|"Legendary Pokémon" species|Arcanine (Pokémon)}}
{{Samename|"Legendary Pokémon" website|Legendary Pokémon (site)}}
----
{{Featured}}
[[File:Entei_book.png|thumb|right|370px|An artist's interpretation of {{p|Entei}}, a legendary Pokémon]]
'''Legendary Pokémon''' are a group of incredibly rare, and often very powerful {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

While in English, all are typically grouped under the banner of "legendary", there are three distinct terms in Japanese that are used to refer to them. One, '''伝説のポケモン''' ''densetsu no Pokémon'', literally "legendary Pokémon", refers to Pokémon such as {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}, who are featured prominently in the legends of the Pokémon world. A second, '''幻のポケモン''' ''maboroshi no Pokémon'', literally "illusory Pokémon", refers to Pokémon seen so rarely, such as {{p|Mew}}, that some question their very existence. This term was translated in the [[Generation IV]] games as "mirage Pokémon", in reference to the various [[Sinnoh myths|myths of Sinnoh]], and many consider it to refer to Pokémon that are restricted to [[Nintendo event]]s, not available during the course of normal gameplay. The third and newest term is '''神話のポケモン''' ''shinwa no Pokémon'', literally "mythical Pokémon", which refers to the Pokémon which are spoken of as the creators of the Sinnoh region.

==Characteristics of legendary Pokémon==
Aside from the high [[stats]] shared by most legendary Pokémon, many of them are only available once to the {{player}} in a given save file, and to obtain another legitimately, one must [[trade]] with another game. The [[gender]] of most legendary Pokémon is unknown (though there are seven notable exceptions in {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Cresselia}}, {{p|Tornelos}}, {{p|Voltolos}}, and {{p|Landlos}}), and all but {{p|Phione}} and {{p|Manaphy}} are unable to breed in captivity, even with {{p|Ditto}}.

No legendary Pokémon is known to [[evolution|evolve]], though many are part of a [[legendary trio]] or [[legendary duo]]. Much like [[starter Pokémon]] appear at the beginning of each [[regional Pokédex]] and their generation's portion of the [[National Pokédex]], legendary Pokémon typically appear at the very end of them.

===In the anime===
Legendary Pokémon typically make their anime debut in a {{pkmn|movie}}, rather than first appearing in a normal episode. Many are held in a much higher regard than in the games, with their powers seen as being almost {{wp|deity|godlike}}. They are often only seen by special {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, usually the anime's main protagonist, [[Ash Ketchum]], who have a special connection to them. [[Villainous teams]] and others with bad intentions often seek them out, both due to their rarity as well as their superior power.

It has been shown that the capture of certain legendary Pokémon may lead to great catastrophe, due to their often pivotal role in nature. Some speculate, however, that if a Trainer were to "play by the rules", encountering and befriending the legendary Pokémon just the same as they would any other Pokémon, the results would not be as chaotic, if at all. This theory possibly has some weight, as {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}} befriended and fought official {{pkmn|battle}}s with an {{TP|Noland|Articuno}}, while [[Lawrence III]]'s capture of {{mov|Zapdos|Zapdos|2}} and {{mov|Moltres|Moltres|2}} in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' was one of intended dominance and collection instead. It should be noted, however, that Noland was never seen to have had Articuno in a Poké Ball, and at the same time, he is a rather skilled Trainer. It should also be noted that in some cases a legendary Pokémon can be kept in a Poké Ball. For example, {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} in the anime owned the three Regis in Poké Balls and trained them and there were no chaotic events that followed.

Many legendary Pokémon are shown to breed in the wild, as seen with {{p|Lugia}}, while none are immortal nor invincible, as seen by the death of {{mov|Celebi|Celebi|4}} and the injury of {{an|Arceus}}. Very few, in fact, are often considered unique, with only {{an|Mewtwo}} known to be (due to the [[The Birth of Mewtwo|circumstances of its creation]]) and {{an|Arceus}}, {{an|Dialga}}, {{an|Palkia}}, and {{an|Giratina}} assumed to be, due to their role in the creation of the universe.

==List of legendary Pokémon==
Of the {{numpkmn}} Pokémon species, 48 are considered to be legendary, while several more have certain characteristics of legendary Pokémon. Each [[generation]] has introduced at least one legendary trio and one legendary duo.

===Generation I===
The legendary Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]] can be broken into two groups: the [[legendary birds]] and the Mew duo.

====Legendary birds====
[[File:Legendary birds.png|thumb|right|270px|{{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Articuno}}, and {{p|Moltres}}. Art by [[Mitsuhiro Arita]].]]
The three [[legendary birds]], also known as the Winged Mirages, are the resident [[legendary trio]] of the [[Kanto]] region. Each of them is based on a mythical bird, and each is associated with a {{wp|season}} (though none of the three is associated with autumn).

In the games, all three are available in the Kanto region in all of its appearances except for [[Generation II]]. {{p|Articuno}} takes up residence in the [[Seafoam Islands]] in the south, {{p|Zapdos}} in the [[Power Plant]] (next to it in Generation IV) in the east, and {{p|Moltres}} in a variety of places, {{ka|Victory Road}}, [[Mt. Ember]], or [[Mt. Silver]], depending on the generation. In Generation IV, they are also found [[roaming Pokémon|roaming]] [[Sinnoh]], but only in {{game|Platinum}}.

In the anime, the legendary birds appear together in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'', where they rule over the islands surrounding [[Shamouti Island]]. If they are disturbed and begin to fight, only {{mov|Lugia|Lugia|2}} can stop them, though it will fail without additional help from the Chosen One. Separately, Articuno appears in ''[[EP189|Freeze Frame]]'', ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]'', and ''[[AG136|The Symbol Life]]'', while Zapdos appears in ''[[EP242|As Clear As Crystal]]'', ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', and ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]'', and Moltres appears in ''[[EP074|All Fired Up]]'' and ''[[SS018|The Search for the Legend]]''.

====Mew duo====
[[Image:Mewtwo and Mew.png|thumb|250px|left|{{p|Mewtwo}} and {{p|Mew}} in [[M01|the first movie]]]]
The Mew duo, so named because of their similar genetic structure and Mewtwo's origin as an enhanced clone of Mew, are a pair of catlike Pokémon which are believed by many to be among the most rare and powerful Pokémon that exist.

In the games, {{p|Mew}} is only mentioned in years-old journals found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} on [[Cinnabar Island]]. It was the first [[event]]-exclusive Pokémon, being otherwise available only by [[Mew glitch|glitching the game]] or [[cheating]]. One is available in the wild on [[Faraway Island]], an event area in {{game|Emerald}}, the only time it is legitimately able to be caught from the wild.

Mew appears in the anime in both [[M01|the first movie]] and [[M08|the eighth movie]]. In the first, it appears to fight against Mewtwo, while in the second, its status as the Pokémon from which life began is explored.

In the games, {{p|Mewtwo}} is revealed to have been cloned from Mew in the journals in the Pokémon Mansion. Unlike most Pokémon, however, Mew gave live birth to Mewtwo, rather than laying an {{pkmn|egg}} and Mewtwo hatching from it. Mewtwo was too powerful, however, and it escapes from the Pokémon Mansion, destroying it in the process. Mewtwo then makes its home in [[Cerulean Cave]], where all kinds of powerful Pokémon live.

In the anime, {{an|Mewtwo}} was featured prominently, appearing in several episodes of the [[original series]], [[M01|the first movie]], and [[Mewtwo Returns|the first special episode]]. Mewtwo's origin is slightly different as well, with [[Team Rocket]] boss [[Giovanni]] funding a group of scientists to create an enhanced clone of {{p|Mew}} for his own use. Though Mewtwo is initially a very angry Pokémon, viewing all humans as evil due to the acts of the scientists and Giovanni, eventually, when [[Ash Ketchum]] sacrifices himself to stop the fighting between Mew and Mewtwo, Mewtwo's heart softens, and he learns that some humans do care about their, and all, Pokémon. Meeting up with Ash again, Mewtwo is further shown that, although it is a genetically-enhanced clone of Mew, it and the other clones are no different than normal Pokémon, and because it erased Ash and his friends' memory at the end of their first meeting, realizes that Ash himself truly does care for others, even if he doesn't know them.

Mewtwo is known in the anime to travel around the world, traversing rooftops at night, and living its life free. It occasionally appears in anime openings, sometimes with Mew, and sometimes alone.

===Generation II===
More legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation II]], adding six more for a running total of 11. The legendary Pokémon introduced in this generation down can be separated into three groups.

====Legendary beasts====
[[File:Entei Raikou Suicune.png|thumb|right|250px|{{ga|Lyra}} and [[Eusine]] discover the legendary beasts in the basement of the [[Burned Tower]].]]
Like the legendary birds of the previous generation, a second trio of similar types was introduced in the neighboring [[Johto]] region. These [[legendary beasts]], so named because their features are reminiscent of both {{wp|canine}} and {{wp|feline}} animals, were trapped in the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]] when it was struck by lightning and burned to the ground, resulting in their death. The trio was revived by the power of {{p|Ho-Oh}}, and now [[roaming Pokémon|roam across the land]] because of their great power.

In the games, more than one of each exists, with only the trio that roams Johto after being discovered in Brass Tower's basement during [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] being that of the legend. Each was captured and changed into a [[Shadow Pokémon]] by [[Cipher]] in {{g|Colosseum}}, while one of the three, depending on the player's [[starter Pokémon]] choice, roams Kanto in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, {{p|Entei}} for {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Raikou}} for {{p|Squirtle}}, and {{p|Suicune}} for {{p|Charmander}}.

In the anime, the legendary beasts did not appear together until [[M13|the thirteenth movie]], despite being introduced in Generation II. It appears that an initial plan for the three Johto-era {{pkmn|movie}}s was to have each feature one of the legendary beasts in a central role, with {{mov|Entei|Entei|3}} taking a central role in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown]]'' and {{mov|Suicune|Suicune|4}} taking the stage in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]''. This did not pan out, however, possibly due to the canning of Johto's {{p|Celebi}} plotline, and Raikou was relegated to a role in ''[[The Legend of Thunder]]'', featuring anime characters based on {{ga|Ethan}} and {{ga|Kris}}, rather than [[M05|the fifth movie]], which focused on legendary Pokémon from the then-upcoming [[Generation III]] instead.

Each of the beasts made an episodic appearance, as well, with Entei appearing in ''[[EP259|Entei at Your Own Risk]]'', Raikou briefly appearing in ''[[EP180|Houndoom's Special Delivery]]'', and Suicune having the most prominence (as in the games) through its appearance in ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'Dile]]'', ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll]]'', and ''[[DP028|Drifloon On the Wind!]]''.

====Tower duo====
[[Image:Lugia_and_ho-oh.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Lugia and Ho-Oh]]
The first [[version mascot]]s that were also legendary Pokémon, {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}} are a pair of legendary birds which formerly resided in [[Ecruteak City]] atop tall towers, leading to their designation. However, when the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]], home of Lugia, was struck by lightning, it burned to the ground, and both flew away, Lugia to make its new home in the [[Whirl Islands]] and Ho-Oh to search the world for a pure-hearted Trainer. The two are thought to be as closely related as they are polar opposites, being based on the eastern legends of the {{wp|Fènghuáng}} and {{wp|Ryūjin}}.

In the games, Lugia does not play a central role in the Generation II storyline, instead being mentioned only as having lived in Ecruteak City before the Brass Tower burned. It is found in the Whirl Islands in the Generation II games and their {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|remakes}} if the player holds a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Silver Wing}}. It reaches prominence in the storyline of {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, where [[XD001|one]] is corrupted by [[Cipher]] to become the ultimate [[Shadow Pokémon]], unable to be purified. It is also available on [[Navel Rock]] in Generation III, as an event-exclusive legendary.

In the anime, Lugia is featured in a central role in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'', where it is revealed that {{Ash}} is the Chosen One who must help it to quell the fighting of the [[legendary birds]]. Another pair of them appeared when Ash and his friends traveled to the Whirl Islands in Johto, and through this, the anime revealed that legendary Pokémon could breed (this is untrue in the games, at least in captivity, likely to restrict players from getting a limitless number of them).

Ho-Oh has a much greater focus during Generation II, being named as the savior of the legendary beasts. It can be found, if the player has a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Rainbow Wing}}, atop [[Bell Tower]] in the Generation II games and their remakes. It makes an appearance in {{g|Colosseum}}, as well, as a reward for purifying all Shadow Pokémon, and on [[Navel Rock]] like Lugia.

In the anime, {{an|Ho-Oh}} is notably the first legendary Pokémon that appeared (outside of the [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master|opening animation]], at least), flying over a rainbow at the start of [[Ash Ketchum]]'s journey at the end of ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. Ash has subsequently seen it several times over the course of his journey, but has never come face-to-face with it.

====Celebi====
[[Image:Celebi_Shrine.png|thumb|right|100px|Celebi on its shrine in [[Ilex Forest]]]]
Although it has no relation to Mew that has been revealed, {{p|Celebi}} was dubbed the "New Mew" when it was introduced in Generation II because of their similar size and stats, as well as the status of being the last in the [[National Pokédex]] as of its generation and being unobtainable through normal gameplay. Unlike Mew, however, it was not believed to be the ancestor of all Pokémon, but merely the guardian of forests, traveling through time to make sure of their purity.

In the games, Celebi is available only by event, either directly (via [[trading]] or [[Mystery Gift]]), or, in {{game|Crystal}}, through an event involving the [[GS Ball]]. This made it the first event Pokémon that was able to be captured from the wild in the games after using an event-only item, something which would continue forward even to the current generation. Celebi also makes an appearance in {{g|Colosseum}} and {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, but it is unobtainable.

In the anime, Celebi takes a central role in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'' and ''[[AG155|The Green Guardian]]''. In the movie, one accidentally brings a young [[Professor Oak]] to the future when attempting to escape from a poacher, and is later captured in a [[Iron-Masked Marauder|Team Rocket member]]'s Dark Balls to be used to destroy the forest and rule the world. In the episode, another is attempting to heal after putting out a forest fire, and needs the help of Pokémon Ranger [[Solana]], as well as the anime's protagonists, to do so.

===Generation III===
Many more legendary Pokémon were added to the roster in [[Generation III]], with the ten new legendaries bringing the total to 21. At this point in the series, legendary Pokémon began to have a greater role in the storyline of the games, with the plot of the [[villainous teams]] introduced in this generation and the next involving the reawakening of ancient legendary Pokémon for the team's own use.

====Legendary golems====
[[Image:Regis.png|thumb|left|{{p|Regice}}, {{p|Registeel}}, and {{p|Regirock}}]]
This third trio of legendary Pokémon, based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend, featured minimally in Hoenn-region legend. Based on the three ancient ages of humanity, the ice age, the stone age, and the iron age, the [[legendary golems]] took a back seat among the legendaries introduced in their generation, and are sometimes referred to by fans derisively as the "legendary trash cans". Truly, this legendary trio, as well as its [[trio master|master]], {{p|Regigigas}}, feature the most complicated method of in-game availability, with puzzles made of [[braille]] in the Hoenn region being the keys to unlocking their mystery.

As complex as the method in which they are obtained is the legend of the golems, which is told in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and finally completed in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. Long ago, an ancient Pokémon was said to have moved the continents into their present positions by pulling them with ropes. After it was finished, it created in its image three Pokémon: {{p|Regirock}}, from clay, {{p|Regice}}, from ice, and {{p|Registeel}}, from magma. Ancient people, seeing that the Pokémon was so powerful, sealed it away in [[Snowpoint Temple]], while those it had created were separated from it and taken to the Hoenn region, sealed in three chambers, and left in the hopes that one day, someone would unlock the chambers and be able to tame the three so as to tame Regigigas. They are available in the [[Desert Ruins]], [[Island Cave]], and [[Ancient Tomb]] in Hoenn, as well as the [[Rock Peak Ruins]], [[Iceberg Ruins]], and [[Iron Ruins]] in [[Sinnoh]] with an event {{p|Regigigas}}.

In the anime, the three legendary golems starred together guarding the [[Tree of Beginning]] in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', as well as as members of {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}'s team in the Battle Frontier saga.

====Eon duo====
[[File:Latias Latios.png|thumb|220px|right|{{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}}]]
Another of Hoenn's minor legendary Pokémon, {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} do not feature a distinct legend behind them. Nonetheless, they are incredibly rare, with only one of the two available normally to players, and the other available through an event.

Latios and Latias take on counterpart availability in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} as well as {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, with Latios being a [[roaming Pokémon]] in Ruby and SoulSilver, and Latias doing the same in Sapphire and HeartGold. In Emerald, after the player has defeated the Elite Four, their mother will ask if the Pokémon mentioned on TV was red or blue, and depending on that, one of the two will be roaming Hoenn. The other member of the duo will be found on [[Southern Island]], accessible by [[Eon Ticket]], in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, and in [[Pewter City]], through the [[Enigma Stone]] event, in HeartGold and SoulSilver.

In the anime, Latios and Latias were the stars of ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes]]'', where the two guarded the legendary city of [[Alto Mare]]. With a strong connection to the [[Soul Dew]], the two were responsible for protecting it from {{mov|Annie}} and [[Oakley]], who wished to steal it.

====Weather trio====
[[Image:GenIII_Battle.jpg|250px|thumb|right|A depiction of the cataclysmic battle between {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}}]]
The trio of super-ancient Pokémon, known for their [[weather conditions|weather-related]] [[abilities]] as the [[weather trio]], serve as the [[version mascot]]s of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and represent the three major components of the Earth: the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, and the atmosphere. Said to shape the land and sea, respectively, {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} are among the most powerful legendary Pokémon, while {{p|Rayquaza}} prevents the two from quarreling.

During the course of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, [[Team Magma]] or [[Team Aqua]], depending on version, seek out Groudon or Kyogre, respectively, with the intention of awakening them to make more homes for Pokémon of the land or sea. Eventually, the plan goes awry, and the player is forced to defeat or capture the legendary to stop a global disaster. In {{game|Emerald}}, instead, both teams are on the loose, intending to awaken their respective legendary target, and only with interference by the player and {{p|Rayquaza}} does the fight end up resolved.

In the anime, Groudon and Kyogre appeared in the two-part episode consisting of ''[[AG096|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG097|The Scuffle of Legends]]''. In these episodes, Team Magma and Team Aqua finally succeed in awakening the two, as in the games, though their conflict is resolved very quickly, much to the chagrin of viewers. Rayquaza appeared in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', where it fought against the pair of {{mov|Deoxys|Deoxys|7}}.

====Jirachi====
[[File:385Jirachi anime.png|thumb|left|{{p|Jirachi}} in the anime]]
One of the two event legendaries of Generation III, {{p|Jirachi}} is known to grant wishes written on the tags on its head each time it awakens: once every millennium.

In the games, Jirachi has never had a concrete location tied to it, and it cannot be captured from the wild legitimately. However, several direct transfers have been present in the history of the franchise, most notably in the form of a bonus disc released as a preview of {{g|Colosseum}} which fixes the [[Berry glitch]] present in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.

Jirachi starred in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', where it befriended [[Max]] as the group attempted to keep it away from [[Butler]], a former [[Team Magma]] operative.

====Deoxys====
[[File:386Deoxys formes.png|thumb|right|{{p|Deoxys}} in its four Formes: Attack, Normal, Defense, Speed]]
A virus from space which mutated when shot by a laser, {{p|Deoxys}} was the first legendary Pokémon known to [[Form differences|change form]], taking different forms on in each of the [[Generation III]] games - Normal Forme in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, Attack Forme in {{game|FireRed}}, Defense Forme in {{game|LeafGreen}}, and Speed Forme in {{game|Emerald}}, and being able to change them at will in the [[Generation IV]] games with special meteorites found in [[Veilstone City]] and on {{rt|3|Kanto}}.

In the games, Deoxys is only available on [[Birth Island]] when the [[AuroraTicket]] is downloaded to FireRed, LeafGreen, or Emerald, though as with all event legendary Pokémon, it has also been available through direct download via [[Mystery Gift]].

Deoxys featured heavily in the seventh Pokémon movie, ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', where its Attack and Defense Formes were first revealed. One of the two {{mov|Deoxys|Deoxys|7}} featured befriends a boy named [[Tory Lund]], who fears Pokémon otherwise and does not realize what Deoxys is, while the other seeks out the first, concerned for its safety. Another Deoxys featured in ''[[AG171|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys Crisis!]]'', where Deoxys's Speed Forme debuted in the anime.

===Generation IV===
Fourteen more legendary Pokémon were added in [[Generation IV]], the most of any generation so far, bringing the total to a whopping 35. Many of the legendary Pokémon of this generation have little connection to the plot of the games, instead being minor, post-League sidequests for the player to go on. Seven of the 14 introduced, even, are not in Sinnoh's regional Pokédex, appearing only in the National Dex, a first for any Pokémon.

Prior to Generation IV, 680 had been the limit on a legendary Pokémon's [[base stat]] total: this limit was set by {{p|Mewtwo}} in [[Generation I]] and was only matched - never surpassed - in Generation II and Generation III. As of Generation IV, however, the most powerful of all Pokémon in terms of base stats is no longer Mewtwo or any of its equals, but {{p|Arceus}}, the supposed creator of the Pokémon universe.

====Lake guardians====
[[File:Mesprit Azelf Uxie anime.png|thumb|right|{{p|Azelf}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Uxie}} together]]
The [[lake guardians]], [[Sinnoh]]'s native legendary trio, represent the spirit of all consciousness, with {{p|Uxie}} embodying knowledge, {{p|Mesprit}} embodying emotion, and {{p|Azelf}} embodying willpower. According to legend, having been created by {{p|Arceus|the Original One}}, the trio have the power to tame the powerful dragons it also created.

In the games, Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf are found in the caverns of [[Lake Acuity]], [[Lake Verity]], and [[Lake Valor]], respectively, though Mesprit will roam Sinnoh after the player has encountered it, rather than battle immediately as the other two will. The trio are captured by [[Team Galactic]]'s {{tc|Commander}}s, [[Jupiter]], [[Mars]], and [[Saturn]], and subjected to the experiments of [[Charon]] to draw out the [[Red Chain]] from the gems in their bodies. Cyrus summons the legendary dragons of Sinnoh mythology, and alone, the lake guardians' power is not enough to stop {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. {{p|Giratina}} interferes and draws Cyrus into the Distortion World, where the lake guardians assist the player in navigation toward Giratina's lair.

In the anime, the lake guardians appeared, first in spirit form, in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage]]'', ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals]]'', and ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]'', to {{an|Dawn}}, {{Ash}}, and {{an|Brock}}, respectively. They were captured by [[J]], who had been hired by [[Team Galactic]], in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', and were freed by Ash, Dawn, and Brock to stop the power of Dialga and Palkia in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]''.

====Legendary dragons====
[[file:Dialga-Palkia-Giratina.jpg|180px|thumb|right|Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina artwork from {{game|Platinum}}]]
The legendary creators of the Pokémon universe, the [[Dragon trio]] consisting of {{p|Dialga}} of time, {{p|Palkia}} of space, and {{p|Giratina}} of antimatter, are, like the weather trio before them, the mascots of [[Sinnoh]]'s trio of games, {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.

In the games, Dialga and Palkia are sought by [[Cyrus]] to destroy and then remake the universe without spirit, a thing he hates about humanity. At [[Spear Pillar]], one of the two will be able to be captured in Diamond and Pearl, depending on the game, while Giratina may be obtained after the Pokémon League has been conquered. In Platinum, however, Giratina interferes with Cyrus's planned destruction of the universe, and may be captured in its home, the [[Distortion World]], while Dialga and Palkia cannot be found until the Elite Four have been defeated.

In the anime, {{an|Dialga}} and {{an|Palkia}} appeared together, fighting, in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', while Dialga and {{an|Giratina}} appeared in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. The three appeared together, finally, in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. Dialga and Palkia were also summoned at Spear Pillar and chained by Cyrus in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', but were freed when he escaped into another universe and the Red Chain was shattered by Ash, Dawn, Brock, and their Pokémon.

====Lunar duo====
[[Image:Darkrai-Newmoon_Island.png|thumb|left|{{p|Darkrai}} on [[Newmoon Island]]]]
A sidequest legendary and event legendary, respectively, {{p|Cresselia}} and {{p|Darkrai}} represent two phases of the moon with opposite connotations: Darkrai represents the {{wp|new moon}}, the cause of the darkest nights and bringer of nightmares, while Cresselia represents the {{wp|crescent moon}}, a sign of hope and good dreams.

In the games, Cresselia can be found on [[Fullmoon Island]] as part of a post-League quest to rid {{tc|Sailor}} Eldrich's son of a nightmare. It will flee immediately, roaming Sinnoh and leaving behind a [[Lunar Wing]], which will heal the boy. Darkrai is found on [[Newmoon Island]], accessible only with a [[Member Card]], and can only be obtained through an event.

The lunar duo made their debuts separately, with a {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} appearing in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', attempting to stop Dialga and Palkia's fight from destroying its home, [[Alamos Town]], and protecting [[Alice]], its friend. Cresselia first appeared in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle]]'', where it fought briefly against a Darkrai.

====Sea guardians====
[[Image:Manaphyphione.png|thumb|right|{{p|Manaphy}} and {{p|Phione}}]]
The sea guardian Pokémon are a legendary duo that, like Mewtwo and Mew, is comprised of a parent and child. {{p|Manaphy}}, a legendary Pokémon that makes its home in warmer seas south of the known regions, bears {{p|Phione}} when bred in captivity in the known regions.

In the games, Manaphy can only be found through an event: either it may be transferred in its egg from one of the {{ga|Pokémon Ranger|Ranger}} games after activating an event in those games, or can be directly received via various Mystery Gift events. Like Jirachi, it cannot be legitimately found in the wild. Phione, of course, must be bred from a Manaphy and a {{p|Ditto}}, making it the only legendary Pokémon available only through this method.

In the anime, Manaphy debuted in ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', where, like in the games, it first appeared as an egg, and befriended {{an|May}}, who it regarded as its mother. It was the only Pokémon able to find the mysterious Temple of the Sea, [[Samiya]], and was regarded as the Prince of the Sea. For this, it was sought by [[the Phantom]], a pirate who wished to take the jewels of the Sea Crown deep in Samiya. Phione debuted under different circumstances, being found in [[Chocovine Town]] in ''[[DP113|Hold the Phione!]]'', where they were revered as bringers of good luck.

Phione is disputed by many in its status as a legendary Pokémon, as its base stat total is lower than all other legendaries, while its availability compared to others is legitimately high, being able to be bred from a Ditto with either Manaphy or Phione as many times as a player would like. Even official sources have not been consistent, with [[Pokémon.com]] changing its status repeatedly, and official guidebooks alternately naming it as legendary or not. For all intents and purposes, it is regarded by Bulbapedia to be legendary due to its inability to be entered into [[Battle Frontier]] competitions and Nintendo-sponsored tournaments.

====Heatran====
[[File:Heatran anime.png|thumb|right|{{p|Heatran}} in the anime]]
{{p|Heatran}} is the embodiment of all volcanic activity, appearing in [[Stark Mountain]] in [[Sinnoh]], where it was said to have been born at the same time as Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina created Sinnoh at [[Spear Pillar]] and created the [[Battle Zone]]. Heatran is the first, and currently only, legendary Pokémon with a variable gender.

Heatran first appeared in the anime in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the control of [[Marcus]], and later appeared in [[DP169]] as part of a Pokémon Ranger rescue mission.

====Regigigas====
[[File:Regigigasanime.png|thumb|left|{{p|Regigigas}} in the anime]]
{{p|Regigigas}} is the master of the [[legendary golems]], having created them in ancient times.

In the games, Regigigas is found at [[Snowpoint Temple]], though it will not awaken unless all three of the legendary golems are in the player's party.

Regigigas appeared in the anime in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', where it attempted to stop a glacier from destroying [[Gracidea]]. Another appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'', where it was hunted by [[J]] and defended by {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}.

====Shaymin====
[[File:Seabreak path.png|thumb|right|{{p|Shaymin}} running down [[Seabreak Path]]]]
A legendary Pokémon that has the ability to purify areas instantly and bring plant life in abundance, {{p|Shaymin}} is referred to as the Mew of Generation IV. Unlike previous event legendaries with its straight-100 base stats, however, Shaymin has the ability to change forms, between Land Forme and Sky Forme.

In the games, like Darkrai, Shaymin is catchable in the wild after an event item has been obtained: this time [[Oak's Letter]], which requests the player's help on {{rt|224|Sinnoh}}. After giving thanks to someone or something, Shaymin will appear, and will be available to be caught at the end of the [[Seabreak Path]] that appears, in the [[Flower Paradise]].

Shaymin has a central role in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', when it, as well as its Sky Forme, were officially revealed. It also has a minor role in ''[[DP168|Keeping In Top Forme!]]'' involving [[Marley]].

====Arceus====
[[File:Arceus ruins art.png|thumb|left|{{p|Arceus}} creates a Pokémon egg for {{ga|Ethan}} and {{ga|Lyra}}]]
The final Pokémon of Generation IV and the most powerful known so far, {{p|Arceus}} is, according to legend, the creator of the Pokémon universe. Born of an egg in the chaos at the beginning, Arceus's powers were awakened immediately, and from itself it made time and space, matter and antimatter, and set {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}} to guard them. It created spirit as well, setting {{p|Uxie}} in charge of knowledge, {{p|Mesprit}} in charge of emotion, and {{p|Azelf}} in charge of willpower, before falling into an eternal slumber.

Arceus can be awoken from its sleep using an [[Azure Flute]] at [[Spear Pillar]], which will open a staircase to its home, the [[Hall of Origin]]. There it can be captured, though no legitimate way of obtaining the Azure Flute has yet been released.

In the anime, {{an|Arceus}} starred in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', where it set out to destroy [[Michina]] and its people for their betrayal in ancient times. After changing history with the help of Dialga, Ash and his friends revealed to Arceus the true nature of human beings, and it left Michina in peace.

===Generation V===
Thirteen additional legendary Pokémon were added in [[Generation V]]), the second largest addition to the ranks (one lower than [[Generation IV]], totalling 48 legendary Pokémon. {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} played a large role in the storyline of Black & White, with the respective mascot Pokémon being a neccesary and unavoidable capture to progress to the endgame. The rest of the Pokémon mattered little to the narrative progression and some are still unavailable legitimately, waiting instead on future events to unlock their existence.

====Victini====
{{p|Victini}} is found at the beginning of [[List of Pokémon by Isshu Pokédex number|Isshu's Pokédex]], being #000. Much like {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Manaphy}} and {{p|Shaymin}} before it, each of its base stats are 100. It is the first [[Generation V]] [[event Pokémon]] revealed and allowed to be obtained. It is said that a Trainer with a Victini will win anything no matter what.

====Musketeer trio====
{{p|Cobalon}}, {{p|Terrakion}}, {{p|Virizion}} are a trio of Pokémon based on the titular characters of the 1844 French novel ''{{wp|The Three Musketeers}}'', and partially on hooved mammals such as deer, oxen, and horses. According to legend, they protect Pokémon from having their habitats destroyed by humans and have been known to have attacked human castles during the Middle Ages. Like the Three Musketeers, they are considered a trio but have a fourth, younger member in the form of {{p|Keldeo}} who the other three rescued and raised after its home was destroyed by fire. All four of them can use their horns like swords, and learn their signature move, {{m|Sacred Sword}}, at level 42 (43 for Keldeo).

====Raijin trio====
{{p|Voltolos}}, {{p|Tornelos}}, and {{p|Landlos}} are a trio of Pokémon based on Japanese deities; Fujin, god of wind, Raijin, god of thunder and lightning, and Inari, a fertility god. Together the three represent the heavens and the nourishing effect the sky has upon the earth.

====Energy Dragon trio====
[[File:Reshiram Zekrom anime.png|thumb|280px|Reshiram and Zekrom]]
{{p|Zekrom}} and {{p|Reshiram}} represent Yin and Yang, and balance. Originally, they were a single dragon that helped found the Isshu region's nation. But fighting between the two brothers that founded the nation split them into two halves that constantly conflict with each other.

It is widely speculated that {{p|Kyurem}} is related to Zekrom and Reshiram due to reasons such as their types and names, in the same way Giratina turned out to be closely related to Dialga and Palkia.

====Meloetta====
{{p|Meloetta}} represents music and dance. Meloetta is similar to the Greek idea of a Muse, a goddess of creativity and inspiration.

====Genesect====
{{p|Genesect}} is an experimental creature created by Team Plasma, under N, attempting to create the strongest Pokémon in existence by altering an ancient insect Pokémon with cybernetic upgrades. It uses special cassettes to make variations to its signature move, {{m|Techno Buster}}.

==Trivia==
* In the games, there appears to only be one of every legendary Pokémon, but in the {{pkmn|anime}}, there is more than one of most legendaries. This may just mean that the creators of the game intended the {{player}} to only ever happen to meet one of them canonically, and in fact there are others elsewhere which the player does not encounter.
** This may be supported by the possibility of acquiring eggs of {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Giratina}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, and {{p|Manaphy}} in the [[Generation IV]] games.
* Each generation has introduced at least one {{type2|Psychic}} legendary and one {{type2|Flying}} legendary, though the only Flying-type legendaries in Generation IV gain this type only in an alternate form.
* According to interviews with [[Junichi Masuda]] in 2009, legendary Pokémon are the most difficult to design names for because Game Freak strives to make sure that the names of legendary Pokémon are universal across the different translations, so extra work must be put into their names to make sure that they work universally in all languages and don't conflict with anything else. This is consistent with the relatively small amount of legendaries who have had their names changed outside of Japan (a current number of six, the [[legendary birds]] and the [[lake guardians]]).
* As of [[Generation V]], aside from {{p|Arceus}}'s use of [[Plates]], there has never been a {{type|Poison}} legendary Pokémon.
* Only {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Giratina}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Lugia}}, and {{p|Ho-Oh}} have a battle theme that is shared with no other. {{p|Mew}} has its own battle theme; however, it is a remixed version of the normal [[Kanto]] wild battle theme.
* The legendary birds of Kanto are the most available wild legendary Pokémon, able to be caught in nine main series games each (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, LeafGreen, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver). The least available wild legendary Pokémon are {{p|Celebi}} and {{p|Mew}}, which only appear in the wild in one game apiece; each encounter requires an [[event item]] to activate it. {{p|Shaymin}} and {{p|Darkrai}} may also count, as the event items for the two, though existent in the games' coding, were not released to players of {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, with the Mystery Gift events only available for players of {{v2|Platinum}}.

what about drifloon apearing of fridays in gen IV?--[[User:Kittenchild|Kittenchild]] 19:10, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

It's on there --[[Image:Spr 3e 115.gif]][[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy512]][[Image:Spr 3e 202.gif]][[Image:Spr 3e 327.gif]] 19:11, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

....sorry I should have re-read it first.--[[User:Kittenchild|Kittenchild]] 19:16, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Is there an article or a section about things which you can do once a day but can do again once midnight rolls over (Berry Master handing out a free berry, Veilstone girl offering a massage, etc)? If there's not, I can start putting one together... [[User:Recalcitrancy|Recalcitrancy]] 14:30, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

:And the rival battle on a Monday when the time rolls over from Sunday and you stay in the same area. -- [[User:HechEff|HechEff]] 14:54, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

==Order of the days==
In the ISO 8601 Monday is described to be the first day of the week as an international standard so should it not be reflected here as well?
[[User:Morri|Morri]] 16:34, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

== HGSS ==

So what're we gonna do about it. It's likely to have the same events as Gen II. Copying or putting Gen II/HGSS? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 07:21, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
:I'll have to say copying it into Gen IV section. {{tt|But I'm always wrong|ain't I TTE}}.--[[User:Clarky13|'''Clarky''']][[User talk:Clarky13|'''13''']] 07:37, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

== Every Day ==

I suggest we add either a section to this article or a new article that chronicles events that happen Every Day. I have looked but I cannot find one on the wiki. The Time article is mainly concerned with the visual effects of time, and doesn't mention any specific events. I think a section in this article would be handy because then we could have all the time based events in one place. It'd certainly be nice to have all the gym leader registration information for HGSS in one place, because popping back and forth between articles to figure out who is on a specific day and who can be registered on any day is a total pain. [[User:Darien Shields|Darien Shields]] 12:26, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
:Isn't that what the current page setup is? —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 23:10, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
::No? The current page seems to list things that happen on specific days. But there are also events that take place every day of the week. For instant, Brock's pokégear registration isn't listed here because it doesn't occur on a specific day. You can do it on any day between noon and three in the afternoon. As far as I can tell no events like that are on the page... [[User:Darien Shields|Darien Shields]] 00:29, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
:::If it happens on every day of the week, then I don't think it needs to be mentioned on a page specific to days of the week. >_> it can just be mentioned elsewhere. (using your example, Brock's PokeGear registration could be just put on Brock's page, since it doesn't matter what day you get it, just the time). --[[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 00:31, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
::::Oh, so that's what you meant by "every day". Gotcha. Like ZC said, we don't need a page listing what you can do every single day. That would basically be summarizing the whole game, because most tasks and quests can be done on any day. It's the events that only happen once out of every seven that are unique, and require mention here. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:23, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
:::::How many events vary by time but not day? If there are enough it may be worth creating a list or at least a section on the main time article. However I do think that such a section would not belong on this page.--[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] ([[User talk:Beligaronia|talk]]) 10:33, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
::::::Off the top of my head I can think of three events that varie by time but not day- registering Brock, registering Jasmine, and getting a massage from Blue's sister in Palette. That's the sort of event I was talking about, sorry, I really failed to make myself clear. Events that occur based on time of day, but not the actual day. It wouldn't include the whole game since stuff like challenging the Elite Four has nothing to do with the time of day, if you catch my drift. The reason I suggested adding that content to this page was because it'd be incredibly useful to have one page that lists all the things like gym leader registration time. Admittedly time based event that don't apply to specific days of the week should probably go in a different place. Maybe [[Time]]? [[User:Darien Shields|Darien Shields]] 13:29, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
:::::::If this is primarily about Pokégear registration, I've put a new section on the [[Pokégear]] page and am slowly filling it in. If you wish, try making a section on the Time article. We'll see how it goes. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 20:38, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
I have created a [[User:Beligaronia/Sandbox|sandbox]] with all the events I could think of. This could either be added as a section to the Time article or its own article if more is added. Needs some work so feel free to edit it.–[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] ([[User talk:Beligaronia|talk]]) 22:28, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

== Link to current day? ==

In the intro section, it currently says
<pre>It is currently {{#time: l}} (UTC).</pre>
Would it be a good idea to add a link there to the section that applies to the current day? For example,
<pre>It is currently [[Days of the week#{{#time: l}}|{{#time: l}}]] (UTC).</pre>
seems to work when I preview it, but I don't know if that sort of syntax would cause problems, or if there's some better way to go about it, or what.

I just thought that this would make it easier for people who come to the page thinking, "what's going on in my game today, again?" (I personally do this often. :P) Much less scrolling and all. [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 16:19, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

== Silver in HGSS ==

Okay, for events, like on Monday, where it says Silver can be battled at Indigo Plateau, once you've battled him can he be rebattled a week later? I can't seem to find him anywhere, so I'm thinking probably not. If that's the case, it's probably worth pointing out in the article? --[[User:Oatzy|Oatzy]] 17:30, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
:: Nevermind, figured it out. After the first time, you have to do the tag battle in the dragon's den before he'll battle you again (in Indigo Plateau).--[[User:Oatzy|Oatzy]] 15:42, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

I registered Whitney at daytime during Thursday at goldenrod department store... could someone clarify the time that she will appear on that day??? [[User:wisp82|wisp82]] 02:43, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Ribbon

2010-07-01T12:20:32Z

Wisp82: /* Effort Ribbon */

A '''Ribbon''' is a special item which can be awarded to a [[Pokémon]] for a variety of reasons. Ribbons stay on a Pokémon, and can be checked in different ways depending on the [[Pokémon games|game]] [[version]].

==In the games==
===In-game Ribbons===
====[[Hoenn]]====
=====Contest Ribbons=====
There are Ribbons for the [[Cool Contest]], the [[Beauty Contest]], the [[Cute Contest]], the [[Smart Contest]], and the [[Tough Contest]]. Each Contest has a Ribbon for each [[Rank#Main series|rank]]; a Normal Rank Ribbon, a Super Rank Ribbon, a Hyper Rank Ribbon, and a Master Rank Ribbon.

Ribbons are awarded to party Pokémon upon completion of the 8th consecutive Battle Tower challenge (defeat 56 trainers in a row) and each challenge thereafter if a Pokémon does not already have a ribbon. Defeating 50 trainers in a row but losing before 56 does not award any ribbons.

The Effort Ribbon is awarded to a Pokémon who has 510 [[effort values]]. The Effort Ribbon is given by a woman at the [[Slateport City]] marketplace in [[Generation III]], at [[Sunyshore Market]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} and [[Blackthorn City]] in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

=====Portrait Ribbon=====

* [[Sun Ribbon]]
* [[Lunar Ribbon]]

===Other Ribbons===
====Tournament Ribbons====
Some of these Ribbons may have been awarded to players who won tournaments at Pokémon events in Japan. Other Ribbons were never handed out.

There are Ribbons for Regional, National, and Global tournaments for 2003, 2004, and 2005. Each has a Champion Ribbon, a Runner-Up Ribbon, and a Semifinalist Ribbon.

Additional Ribbons are:
* Pokémon Battle Cup Participation Ribbon
* Pokémon League Advance Cup
* Pokémon Tournament Participation Ribbon

====Event Ribbons====
There are "Pokémon Event" and "Pokémon Festival" Ribbons which may have been distributed at Pokémon events and festivals in Japan. They are: Red Ribbon, Green Ribbon, Blue Ribbon, Festival Ribbon, Carnival Ribbon, and Premier Ribbon. The description of these Ribbons is ''"A commemorative Ribbon obtained at a mystery location."''.
* [[Image:RibbonClassic.png]] Classic Ribbon (Japanese: クラッシックリボン ''Classic Ribbon''): This ribbon is attached to several [[event Pokémon]], and prevents trading the Pokémon on the [[Global Terminal#Global Trade Station|Global Trade Station]]. Normal wireless and Wi-Fi trading and battling are not prevented. The description is ''"A Ribbon that proclaims love for Pokémon."''
* [[Image:RibbonPremier.png]] Premier Ribbon (Japanese: プレミアリボン ''Premier Ribbon''): This is similar to the Classic Ribbon that is attached to an [[event Pokémon]], and prevents trading the Pokémon on the {{DL|Global Terminal|Global Trade Station}}. Normal wireless and Wi-Fi trading and battling are not prevented. Currently, only one Pokémon has it: a {{p|Mew}} given out for the 10th Anniversary of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. The description is ''"Special Holiday Ribbon."''

====Pokémon Center Ribbons====
There are Ribbons for the [[Pokémon Center (store)|Pokémon Centers]] in Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and New York.

* Darkness Tower Clear
* Red Tower Clear
* Blackiron Tower Clear
* Final Tower Clear

==In the anime==
[[File:Lila ribbon.png|right|thumb|Ribbons in the anime|230px]]
Unlike the games, ribbons are not attached to individual Pokémon. Instead, they are more akin to [[badge]]s earned at gyms. They are considered proof that a Coordinator has won a particular Contest. Unlike badges, Coordinators only get a single chance of earning a particular ribbon in a certain Contest. They also must compete with other Coordinators to earn it.

Once a Coordinator earns five ribbons, they are able to enter and compete in the [[Grand Festival]], the Contest equivalent of the [[Pokémon League]]. Ribbons also do not expire, and multiple years can be used to collect the five needed ribbons for the [[Grand Festival]]. However, after competing in the Festival, the five cannot be used in another competition.

Are any of these moves one-shot tutors? Or are they all infinitely teachable? Either way, I think this should be clarified. If the former is the case, it should also be noted on the move's page. --[[User:ZellMurasame|ZellMurasame]] 16:41, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

:The problem remains... what about the crossgen evos? Like Ambipom; you can get DynamicPunch on it if you transfer Aipom from Emerald. Should that be mentioned? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 23:00, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

== Cape Brink Tutor and Starters ==

So, I bought LeafGreen and FireRed at the same time, and traded the other two starters to my FireRed file early on (by Pewter City). So they all had max happiness by the time I reached Cape Brink. And the move tutor taught Blaze Burn to Charizard, Hydro Cannon to Blastoise, and Frenzy Plant to Venasaur. This proves that it's not just for the trainer's starter (which was Squirtle, by the way).

I can't think of the right words to reword it though, so I'd like to leave that up to someone else; and if someone else doesn't, I'll just have to fix it someother time. But it should be noted. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 23:05, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

== Move availability ==

To all those who edit Platinum tutor moves: check before assuming anything. For instance, just because a Pokémon learns one or even two elemental punches '''does not''' mean it learns all three. Check [http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45806 Smogon] and [http://www.serebii.net/platinum/movetutors.shtml Serebii]. They are wrong sometimes, but rarely. If you find something that looks suspicious, ''check it on a Platinum game'', or find someone who can. Please do not simply assume things, and then present it as fact on Bulbapedia's move lists. Checking early avoids a lot more hassle for everyone later on. Thanks. — [[User:Laoris|Laoris]] ([[User_Talk:Laoris|Blah]]) 02:53, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
:On a related note, sometimes a Pokémon can learn a move by tutor in Emerald, but cannot learn the same move in Platinum. Whether or not this makes sense, it's true. — [[User:Laoris|Laoris]] ([[User_Talk:Laoris|Blah]]) 03:30, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

==Heart Gold/Soul Silver==

I've got the ball rolling. How you decide to make it look prettier is up to those of you who know what you're doing. Also, I'm not sure you should bother putting the Platinum Battle Frontier move tutors in the same template as the new ones (even though you can learn them in the same place) because it makes it more difficult to find the new ones. But that's just my opinion.--[[User:ANinyMouse|Aniny]] 19:46, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

:When I first analyzed the HG/SS Move tutors I noticed at least 11 new moves that were not available in Platinum so I would think that would be a good reason to make a new template, similar to the one used for Emerald since it also requires B.P. and If I recall on my analysis this does not include {{m|Headbutt}}. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 19:31, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

Wisp82: /* Double Battles - Base Power */

== Add something to Trivia? ==

I think we should add that this move can be learned by most of the pokemon (123 in Generation IV). Or that this is the most learned Water type in this game so far.
:no, because moves like {{m|Hidden Power}} and {{m|Toxic}} can be learned by ANYONE. itd be like saying {{m|Fly}} can be learned by almost any Flying type. its self explanitory. Surf = water type. therefor, almost all the water types can learn it, along with the odd one here and there.

::Umm...

He means All pokemon that can learn TM's and HM's can learn those moves [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK]] 15:52, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

== Hidden beta item ==

I think we should add this little trivia fact (I have done this, and it works!):
There's a hidden key item in the Generation 1 games called ????? that allows you to Surf outside of battle without the need for HM03. It can be obtained with the Gameshark code for item modifying, with the hex variable set to 07. If the game is saved while the code is active, the item stays in the pouch like any other key item, even after the GameShark is removed. To use, just go up to water, and select it from the item pouch. The item was created in the beta versions, and later made unavailable, but not removed entirely. --{{ani|250}}[[User:Fsilone|隼也

:Wouldn't that just be a matter of going through the TM, HM and move tutor moves?

== Double Battles - Base Power ==

Shouldn't it be pointed out that Surf's Base Power drops if facing two opponents in a Double Battle? And that the Base Power is restored if there's only 1 opponent left in the Double Battle. Well, it is in Gen III anyway. I don't know if the partner-hitting properties of Surf added in Gen IV changes that last fact. --[[User:Raylax|Raylax]] 23:38, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Signature move

Wisp82: /* List of Pokémon and their signature moves */

'''Signature moves''' are [[move]]s that can only be learned by a single [[Pokémon]] or a very small select group of Pokémon by level-up (with the exception of Pikachu's {{m|Volt Tackle}}), usually in the same evolutionary line. Note that any of the moves included in this classification (except for {{m|Chatter}}) can be learned by {{P|Smeargle}} by use of {{M|Sketch}}, making Sketch and Chatter the only moves that are truly exclusive to one Pokémon legitimately. Also, some of these moves can be passed down via {{pkmn|breeding}} to other Pokémon.

==One-off signature moves==
This is a list of signature moves that at only one point, another Pokémon had the ability to acquire:

* A {{p|Dratini}} that knows '''{{m|ExtremeSpeed}}''' is obtainable in {{game|Crystal}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} after answering a quiz in the [[Dragon's Den]].
* An egg will be given by the daycare man in {{game|Crystal}} that hatches into a random baby Pokémon that knows '''{{m|Dizzy Punch}}'''.
* A {{p|Skitty}} with '''{{m|Pay Day}}''' can be obtained from a special {{Pkmn|egg}} after depositing 500 Pokémon in [[Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire]] from a Game Boy Advance game pak.
** Also, in Generation I, various other pokémon can learn '''{{m|Pay Day}}''' through the use of [[TM16]].
* After [[Shadow Lugia|Lugia]] from [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] has been purified, it learns '''{{m|Psycho Boost}}''' and '''{{m|FeatherDance}}'''.
* Similarly, after {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}} and {{p|Moltres}} from Pokémon XD have been purified, they all learn '''{{m|Extrasensory}}'''.
* A {{p|Darkrai}} with '''{{m|Roar of Time}}''' and '''{{m|Spacial Rend}}''' was available as a special giveaway to commemorate the [[M10|10th movie]].
* An {{p|Arceus}} with '''{{m|Roar of Time}}''', '''{{m|Spacial Rend}}''' and '''{{m|Shadow Force}}''' was available as a special giveaway to commemorate the [[M12|12th movie]].

==Other signature move examples==
* Although other Pokémon are capable of learning '''{{m|Drill Peck}}''', {{p|Fearow}}, {{p|Dodrio}}, and {{p|Zapdos}} are shown to be the most common Pokémon to use it.
* The {{p|Squirtle}} evolution family and {{p|Sharpedo}} are the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Skull Bash}}''' by leveling up, but other Pokémon could learn it through [[TM40]] in [[Generation I]].
* Although '''{{m|Megahorn}}''' was no longer {{p|Heracross}}'s signature move since [[Generation III]], it is still the only {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon that can learn the move.
* {{p|Sudowoodo}} is the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Mimic}}''' by leveling up in [[Generation II]], but other Pokémon could learn it through [[TM31]] in [[Generation I]] and [[move tutor]] in [[Generation III]].
* {{p|Lucario}} is usually associated with '''{{m|Aura Sphere}}''' and '''{{m|Force Palm}}''', but eight Pokémon (including Lucario) can learn Aura Sphere in total. Seven Pokémon (including Lucario) can learn Force Palm. However, it should be noted that Lucario is the only Fighting-type Pokémon to learn Aura Sphere naturally.
* {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, and {{p|Blastoise}} have traditionally been associated with '''{{m|Flamethrower}}''', '''{{m|SolarBeam}}''', and '''{{m|Hydro Pump}}''', respectively since [[Generation I]], despite the fact that several other Pokémon can learn those moves. In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], it even refers to {{m|Flamethrower}} as {{p|Charizard}}'s signature move.
* Eight Pokémon can currently learn {{p|Arcanine}}'s former signature move, '''{{m|ExtremeSpeed}}'''.
* {{p|Goldeen}} and {{p|Seaking}} had '''{{m|Waterfall}}''' as their signature move in [[Generation I]], before it was changed to a [[HM]]. They are still the only ones to learn it by level up.
* In [[Generation]]s {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}} is the only Pokémon who can learn '''{{m|Mega Kick}}'''. However, in Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}, others could learn it through [[TM]] and [[move tutor]] respectively.
** As for '''{{m|Jump Kick}}''', it was its signature move for the first three generations; however, it was discovered that {{p|Buneary}} and {{p|Lopunny}} can learn it in Generation IV.
* {{p|Jolteon}} and {{p|Vaporeon}}'s signature moves are said to be '''{{m|Pin Missile}}''' and '''{{m|Acid Armor}}''', respectively. Both abilities are alluded to in both Pokémon's various Pokédex entries. However, many Pokémon learn both moves by leveling up, and some through {{pkmn|breeding}}. Likewise, {{p|Umbreon}}'s '''{{m|Moonlight}}''' matches {{p|Espeon}}'s '''{{m|Morning Sun}}''', though others can learn it even in its introductory generation.
* {{p|Suicune}}, being known as the Aurora Pokémon, is associated with the move '''{{m|Aurora Beam}}'''.
* {{p|Ditto}} has '''{{m|Transform}}''' as its only move and is most associated with it; however, {{p|Mew}} is also able to learn it.
* {{P|Unown}} can learn only '''{{m|Hidden Power}}'''; however, almost every other Pokémon can learn it via [[TM10]] in [[Generation II]] and beyond.
* Each of {{p|Rotom}}'s forms has its own signature move that cannot be carried over to any of its other forms. However, none of these five moves are exclusive to it.
* Although several Pokémon can learn it by TM, until Generation III only {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Dugtrio}} could learn '''{{m|Dig}}''' by level up.
* Until Generation III, {{p|Koffing}} and {{p|Weezing}} were the only Poison-type Pokémon capable of learning '''{{m|Smog}}'''. As of Generation IV, they are still the only Poison-types to learn the move naturally, and all other Poison-types must be bred the move to have it.
* Though many others can learn it through TM or breeding, {{p|Skarmory}} is the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Steel Wing}}''' by leveling up.
* {{p|Vigoroth}} is the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Focus Punch}}''' by leveling up. However, it also learns other Fighting-type moves by level-up, such as '''{{m|Reversal}}'''.
* {{p|Porygon-Z}} is the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Trick Room}}''' by leveling up.

Gym

2009-06-14T10:11:58Z

Wisp82: /* Trivia */

A Pokémon '''Gym''' (Japanese: '''ジム''' ''Gym'') is a place where [[Pokémon Trainer]]s go to train their [[Pokémon]]. Just like real life gymnasiums, where one can go to work out and build physical strength, Pokémon Gyms are places where Trainers can go to sharpen their {{pkmn|battling}} skills and where their Pokémon can go to gain [[experience]]. Often specializing in a particular [[Elemental types|elemental type]], Gyms create an environment which allows Trainers to test both their skills and Pokémon against those of others. The most powerful Trainer in a given Gym is called the [[Gym Leader]], whom the lower-ranking members of a Gym look up to greatly. In the games, there is [[Caretaker|a character]] that stands near the door giving tips on how to beat the gym.

==Official Gyms==
Gyms that are certified by the [[Pokémon League]] are vital to a Trainer's Pokémon journey. Leagues are designed so that conventional Trainers must travel far and wide before entering a [[Pokémon League#Types of competitions|League Competition]], as the only way to enter one is by gaining at least eight official Gym [[Badge]]s, and there can only be one official Gym per city.

===In the games===
There are eight known official Gyms in each [[region]].

====Kanto====
*[[Pewter Gym]]
*[[Cerulean Gym]]
*[[Vermilion Gym]]
*[[Celadon Gym]]
*[[Saffron Gym]]
*[[Fuchsia Gym]]
*[[Cinnabar Gym]]
*[[Viridian Gym]]

====Orange Archipelago====
*[[Mikan Gym]]
*[[Navel Gym]]
*[[Trovita Gym]]
*[[Kumquat Gym]]

====Johto====
*[[Violet Gym]]
*[[Azalea Gym]]
*[[Goldenrod Gym]]
*[[Ecruteak Gym]]
*[[Cianwood Gym]]
*[[Olivine Gym]]
*[[Mahogany Gym]]
*[[Blackthorn Gym]]

====Hoenn====
*[[Rustboro Gym]]
*[[Dewford Gym]]
*[[Mauville Gym]]
*[[Lavaridge Gym]]
*[[Petalburg Gym]]
*[[Fortree Gym]]
*[[Mossdeep Gym]]
*[[Sootopolis Gym]]

====Sinnoh====
*[[Oreburgh Gym]]
*[[Eterna Gym]]
*[[Veilstone Gym]]
*[[Pastoria Gym]]
*[[Hearthome Gym]]
*[[Canalave Gym]]
*[[Snowpoint Gym]]
*[[Sunyshore Gym]]

====Anime====
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, [[Gary Oak]] reveals that he has more than eight Badges, suggesting that there are more Gyms in the anime than {{player}}s are given access to in the {{pkmn|games}}. Specifically, he has at least ten badges excluding the {{Badge|Earth}}. Before the [[Indigo League]] competition, Ash encounters [[Otoshi]] in ''[[EP073|Bad to the Bone]]''; he owns eight badges, but only shares four in common with Ash. Later in the episode, another {{pkmn|Trainer}} appears with eight other completely different badges. In total, Ash, Gary, [[Otoshi]] and the other Trainer displayed 27 different types of badges prior to competing in the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]], so there must have been at least this number of official gyms in the anime version of Kanto at the time (there may be fewer now, as the [[PIA]] eventually cracked down on gyms with low standards).

Whilst on her journey collecting badges, [[Sakura]] collected badges from both [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]], so it is unclear what the rules are for competing in championship tournaments.

At the Hoenn Pokémon League Championship, [[Morrison]] is shown to have an eighth badge different from Ash's, suggesting that there are at least 9 official gyms in Hoenn. Many believe it could be a badge from {{Ci|Slateport}} or {{to|Pacifidlog}}.

During ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]'', in the Sinnoh saga, [[Barry]] was seen to have a badge that is not present in the games and most likely will not be possessed by Ash.

==Unofficial gyms==
===Games===
====Saffron City Dojo====
{{Main|Fighting Dojo}}
The Trainers of this gym specialize in {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon. It used to be the town's official Gym until [[Sabrina]] defeated its leader. After the player defeats the Dojo's leader, he will give the player either {{p|Hitmonlee}} or {{p|Hitmonchan}} as a reward.

''In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}:''
*{{OBP|Black Belt|trainer class}} Hitoshi: {{p|Machop}} (31), {{p|Mankey}} (31), {{p|Primeape}} (31)
*{{OBP|Black Belt|trainer class}} Hideki: {{p|Machop}} (32), {{p|Machoke}} (32)
*{{OBP|Black Belt|trainer class}} Mike: {{p|Mankey}} (31), {{p|Mankey}} (31), {{p|Primeape}} (31)
*{{OBP|Black Belt|trainer class}} Aaron: {{p|Primeape}} (36)
*{{OBP|Black Belt|trainer class}} [[Koichi]]: {{p|Hitmonlee}} (37), {{p|Hitmonchan}} (37)

====Pre Gym====
{{main|Pre Gym}}
This unofficial Gym of [[Phenac City]] doubles as an {{pkmn|academy}}. In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], its leader, [[Justy]], will not battle the Trainer until they have at least six Pokémon, and will give away {{TM|27|Return}}.
===Anime===
====A.J.'s Gym====
This gym is run solely by the Trainer [[A.J.]], and is notable for its rigorous training methods. It is unknown what prize if any A.J. gave to any victorious challengers, because he left it to enter the [[Pokémon League]] after he defeated 100 challengers in a row using only his {{p|Sandshrew}}. This gym appears in ''[[EP008|The Path to the Pokémon League]]''.

====Fighting Spirit Gym====
This gym was run by {{ka|Anthony}}, who was training his {{p|Hitmonchan}} for the [[P1 Grand Prix]]. It did not appear to be used for actual [[Pokémon battle]]s. Instead, it had the appearance of a [[wp:gym]] used for training and exercising.

====Kas Gym====
This gym in [[Dark City]] wanted to become an official gym to earn money, but was rejected by the [[Pokémon League]]. It has Pokémon of various types, but its primary Pokémon is an {{p|Electabuzz}}. This gym appears in ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]''.

====Yas Gym====
This gym in [[Dark City]] wanted to become an official gym to earn money, but was rejected by the [[Pokémon League]]. It has Pokémon of various types, but its primary Pokémon is a {{p|Scyther}}. This gym appears in ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]''. Their Gym Leader is voiced by [[Ted Lewis]] in English.

====Coastline Gym====
This is an unofficial gym that was featured in ''[[EP256|Just Add Water]]''. It is located on the outskirts of [[Blackthorn City]]. Lead by [[Dorian]], the gym specializes in {{type2|Water}} Pokémon. Unlike the other Water-type gyms, Dorian holds his battles underwater.

Although the gym is unofficial, Dorian is hoping that by word of mouth it will become more popular. In fact, after {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr|his friends}} visited the Gym, they promised they would tell everyone at the [[Silver Conference]] about it. However, it hasn't been mentioned since then.

==Technical schools==

==Trivia==
*For [[DP008]], [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Gyms. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about them: かてるまで　なんどもちょうせん　ポケモンジム ''Kateru made nando mo chōsen, Pokémon Jimu'' "Until you win, battle again and again; that is a Pokémon Gym."
*In [[Generation I]], a [[glitch]] allowed Trainers to [[fishing|fish]] at the statues at the front of the gyms.
*No known Gym has specialized in {{type2|Dark}} Pokémon.
*[[Pokémon Platinum]] is the only game where the gym order is changed from its predecessors, which are [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl| Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]] in this case.
*If one counts the [[Fighting Dojo]] in Kanto, every region has a {{type2|Fighting}} gym.
*A [[trainer]] in the [[Olivine Lighthouse]] says Jasmine is used to specialize on rock type. If this has happened, every region used to have a rock gym.

Blend Master

2009-05-08T10:16:40Z

Wisp82:

The '''Blend Master''' is a [[non-player character]] in {{g|Emerald}}.

He appears in {{ci|Lilycove}} [[Contest Hall]] on occasion, and his presence is announced by {{ho|Pokémon News}}. He replaces the typical character at the [[Berry Blender]]. He is a lot more skilled than the NPC he replaces, and so blending with him usually results in very high level [[Pokéblocks]].

----
Trivia:

The Blend Master always uses High-leveled berries(#31-35) of the same flavor as you are using. But when you use them he uses berries #25-30 of also the same flavor.
