This is the '''list of [[wild Pokémon]] who have had a recurring role in the [[Pokémon anime]]'''.
Several [[wild Pokémon]] had a recurring role in the [[Pokémon anime]].


==Jigglypuff==
==[[Original series]]==
[[File:Jigglypuff anime.png|thumb|250px|Jigglypuff]]
===Kanto===
{{main|Jigglypuff (anime)}}
{{Recurring|Kanto}}
The first recurring wild Pokémon in the anime, and the one that made the most appearances, is {{an|Jigglypuff}}.

{{Recurring/Main|Mewtwo Journeys|{{p|Mewtwo}}|Mewtwo (M01)}}
{{Recurring/Foot|Kanto}}


Jigglypuff's first appearance was in ''[[EP045|The Song of Jigglypuff]]''. At first it couldn't {{m|sing}}, but that changed once {{an|Brock}} gave it a piece of fruit which soothed its throat. Jigglypuff followed the gang throughout their journey until the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. It set a goal to accomplish what it had failed to in the first episode: to have someone listen to its song in its entirety without falling asleep.

Jigglypuff is perhaps best known, however, for its running gag. Whenever it saw that its song put its listeners to sleep, it would inflate angrily, making a distinctive "honk" sound, then doodle over the faces of its audience with its marker.

Slowking first appeared as one of the main characters in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.
===Kanto===
This {{pkmn2|talking}} Slowking lived on [[Shamouti Island]], and was the guardian of the shrine located on the island. He gave {{Ash}} advice on where to find the Ice, Thunder and Fire Spheres. He later praised the [[Team Rocket trio]], upset that no-one saw them being heroes, telling them that their heroic actions [[Breaking the fourth wall|did not go unnoticed]].

Suicune first appeared in the anime in the episode ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'Dile]]'' as a form of energy. When {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} were lost in a forest, {{TP|Misty|Togepi|Togetic}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} sensed something and led the {{ashfr|trio}} to a lake. Suicune was standing on a small island in the lake. At first, Ash did not understand what Pokémon it was and wanted to capture it. However, Suicune ran away towards the direction of [[New Bark Town]] as soon as Ash made an attempt to {{pkmn|battle}} it. Ash and group chased it to New Bark from where they began their [[Johto]] [[Pokémon: The Johto Journeys|adventure]].


Suicune appeared once again in the episode, ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!]]''. After [[Team Rocket]] had removed a [[Clear Bell|Crystal Bell]] from {{Ci|Ecruteak}}'s [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]], many {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon invaded the city. They wrapped [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in a web by using {{m|String Shot}} and blocked off the entry to the Tin Tower. The bugs even attacked Ash, Misty, Brock, [[Morty]] and [[Eusine]] when they wanted to go to the Tin Tower. Suicune appeared, calming down the Pokémon and freeing the Rocket trio as well as the city from the webs of the bugs. Eusine wanted to capture Suicune and sent out his {{p|Alakazam}} to battle it. Alakazam used a {{m|Disable}}, but Suicune easily blocked it with a {{m|Mirror Coat}}. It then used {{m|Roar}} to send Alakazam back into its [[Poké Ball]] and fled from the place before Eusine could even react.

{{p|Snubbull}} first appeared in ''[[EP124|Snubbull Snobbery]]'' in the possession of a rich woman named [[Madame Muchmoney]], engaged to another Snubbull named Winthrop. She was not happy with her life of luxury, and preferred playing to pampering and {{an|Brock}}'s [[rice ball]]s to gourmet food. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} helped Madame to realize this, and so she started making changes just for the sake of Snubbull's happiness. However, Snubbull still felt something missing from her life, specifically {{MTR}}'s tail which she loves to bite down on. Thus, Snubbull ran away from home to follow {{TRT}}.
{{Recurring/Foot|Sinnoh}}


Her final appearance was in ''[[EP175|The Trouble With Snubbull]]'', where she [[evolution|evolved]] into {{TP|Madame Muchmoney|Granbull}} and returned to her owner, who had been searching for her since she first left.

The Pichu Brothers were first introduced in the third mini-movie ''[[PK07|Pikachu & Pichu]]'', where they met [[Ash's Pikachu]] who was lost after falling off a nearby building, in which {{Ash}} was planning a party celebrating the anniversary of [[EP001|when he and Pikachu first met]]. Pikachu and the Pichu Brothers went all throughout the town chased by a {{p|Houndour}} who eventually helped them when the local Pokémon Playhouse was collapsing.

They also have a number of friends living in [[Big Town]] that regularly take part in their adventures. They have all made appearances in various side story episodes, as well as a cameo at the beginning of ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', and the gang have also recieved their own game for the [[Pokémon mini]], [[Pichu Bros. mini]].

Even though it followed them everywhere, [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]], [[Ash's Bayleef]] and {{AP|Noctowl}} were the only ones to see it.

Loudred first appeared in ''[[AG022|A Hole Lotta Trouble]]'' where it ran by and steped on [[Jessie]] when she was climbing up to the next floor or [[Granite Cave]]. In the [[AG023|next episode]] Jessie fell on top of it while it was sleeping when she hastyly ran to catch [[Ash's Corphish|whatever was attacking]] {{Ash}} and his {{AP|friends}}. Loudred then sent her, [[James]] and {{MTR}} flying with an extremely loud {{m|Screech}} attack. It reappeared again in ''[[AG026|Turning Over a Nuzleaf]]'' where it was pinched on the ear by Ash's Corphish. Loudred ran around in pain, screeching, causing the {{TP|May|Silcoon}} to fall from {{an|May}}'s arms and roll off, seperating it and the other Pokémon that went to its rescue to become seperated from their trainers. Loudred's last appearance was in ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme!]]'' where [[Professor Birch]] fell from a {{p|Wingull}}'s nest on to it, waking it from its sleep. Loudred screeched at him before leaving.

{{p|Spoink}} first appeared in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]''. It had lost its pearl, and {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} were trying to find it. As it turns out, [[Team Rocket]] had found it and had traded it to the [[Magikarp salesman]] for a {{DL|List of Pokémon temporarily owned by Team Rocket|Magikarp}}. After learning this, the kids confronted the salesman and demanded he give back the pearl. Team Rocket also demanded he give them the pearl back as well. In the ensuing battle, Spoink's pearl was returned and Team Rocket was sent blasting off.
 
It made its second, and final, appearance in ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom]]''. Like the previous time, it had lost its pearl. This time, it was lost in the ocean without any way of retrieving it. But the kids learned from a scientist named [[Isaiah]] that Spoink's pearls come from {{p|Clamperl}}. Eventually, they found a Clamperl who was willing to give its pearl to Spoink. They said goodbye to Spoink, and it hasn't been seen since that episode.
 
After losing its pearl, Spoink has a habit of using {{m|Psychic}} to move any round objects (and after a while, even not-so-round objects) on its head, including an angry {{p|Electrode}}, much to the dismay of those around it. It developed a friendship with [[Ash's Torkoal]] during its adventures with the group.

{{p|Hippopotas}} made his first appearance in ''[[DP044|Mass Hip-Po-Sis!]]'', where {{Ash}}, with the aid of {{Ashfr|his friends}}, rescued the Pokémon from being trapped upon a high ledge. It was then discovered that Hippopotas was lost and he was separated from the rest of the Hippopotas and Hippowdon. Ash and friends helped Hippopotas find his way back to the herd. Like a few other Pokémon, Hippopotas seemed to like to be carried on top of Ash's head.
 
[[Jessie]] had trouble saying the Pokémon's species name; she and her [[Team Rocket]] fellows attempted to steal Hippopotas for their boss.
 
Hippopotas's final appearance was in ''[[DP065|Sleight of Sand!]]'' with his father {{p|Hippowdon}}. In this episode, [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] also wanted to kidnap the Hippo Pokémon.
 
Hippopotas's gender was confirmed in his first appearance, due to his coloration. Unlike other Pokémon, Hippopotas have completely different colors depending on gender.

===Trivia===
* In ''[[EP003|Ash Catches a Pokémon]]'', Ash caught a {{p|Caterpie}} that he started to battle in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]''. It was eventually released as a {{AP|Butterfree}} in ''[[EP021|Bye Bye Butterfree]]''.
* Hippopotas's tendency to use {{m|Yawn}} seems to mirror {{an|Jigglypuff}}'s love for {{m|Sing}}ing.
* Ash caught a {{AP|Lapras}} in ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]''. In ''[[EP113|Viva Las Lapras]]'', Ash released his {{AP|Lapras}} who has appeared twice as a wild Pokémon, once in ''[[EP257|Lapras of Luxury]]'' and again in ''[[JN143|Ride, Lapras, Ride!]]''.
* Although Hippopotas weighs {{tt|109.1 pounds|49.5 kilograms}} in the games, Ash has no problem carrying it. This is an example of [[anime physics]].

* In ''[[SM015|Rocking Clawmark Hill!]]'', Ash caught a {{AP|Rockruff}} that lived with him and {{an|Professor Kukui}} in Kukui's home.
