Talk:Azalea Town

Why is "yawn" linked to the move? That move hadn't been invented yet!

No. But this raises a good quesiton. "Yawn" is simply a Pokemon yawning to put the other to sleep. Does it count as a move only now that it's been recognized as an attack?

If Generation 4 releases a move just called "Dodge", does that mean Pokemon have been using that move in the anime for years? Or does it only count after the move has been released.

Ash had a Double Battle in one of the Orange Island Gyms. Does it NOT count as a Double Battle because Double Battles weren't released in the games then?

A Pokemon in the anime had used magic to change the weather in Gen I (like Dragonair was supposed to be able to), would that have counted as Sunny Day once Gen II is released?

Where does the line draw when a Pokemon simply performs an action, when that action is turned into an in-battle technique in later generations?

I'm going to guess that the 'yawn' in Azalea Town's history was just a regular yawn and not the attack, given that no mention was made of it putting anything to sleep. --BJG

"According to legends in the town, the Yawn of a Slowpoke causes rain" sounds like its talking about Rain Dance, and that it's how a Slowpoke performs a Rain Dance attack - MTC

Yeah, I'd have to concur with that rain dance assumption. Evkl 16:36, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
