Amphy: Difference between revisions

Amphy (Japanese: アカリ Akari) is an Ampharos that illuminates the Sparkling Lighthouse in Olivine City. His trainer is apparently Jasmine, however, she does not use him on her team during the gym battle in either the anime or games. He first appears in Fight for the Light.

In the anime

In the anime dub, Amphy was called Sparkle. This may have been due to a dubbing error.

Sparkle became sick shortly before Ash challenged Jasmine for the Mineral Badge. He, his friends and Janina traveled to Cianwood City to buy the medicine for Sparkle. While Janina went back to Olivine City, Ash and his friends traveled through the Whirl Islands.

While on the way back to Olivine in Throwing in the Noctowl, the plane Wings Alexander was flying Ash and the others in was blown off course. Thanks to Sparkle, Wings was able to get back on course and safely land his plane.

In the games

Amphy is always at the top of Olivine's Sparkling Lighthouse. However, he is sick when the player first arrives in Olivine City in Generation II. After climbing the Lighthouse, players find out from Jasmine that they have to travel to Cianwood City across the sea to get medicine that will cure Amphy. After Amphy is cured, Jasmine may be battled in the Olivine Gym.
