Electric Tale of Pikachu

Why is the Electric Tale of Pikachu stuff under Misc? Shouldn't that have its own entry? It doesn't seem fair that Special gets its own heading and the other mangas don't, especially when they require length like this. I can see cramming it under Misc if it's just a line or two (ie, the two references under Koga's entry), but for an entry with detail, they should have their own heading.--BJG

You can easily fix that yourself, you know. Ketsuban 16:43, 9 Aug 2005 (CDT)

Sabrina's appearance in Pokémon Special

In which volumes does Sabrina appear? --nYoo 00:37, 9 Aug 2005 (CEST)

Sabrina owning a Hitmonlee

Wouldn’t it be more likely that Otoshi got his badge from the Fighting Dojo before it lost its Gym status? IIMarckus 00:26, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

There's several theories about different variants of the 27 known Kanto badges in the anime on the Badge page, including some of Otoshi's badges. --Shiningpikablu252 00:27, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
Considering how the Marsh Badge was shown in that particular scene during the flashback, I doubt it was a different gym he accessed. Also, I'm pretty sure the Fighting Gym would have had their own badge (The Marsh Badge, or the Soul Badge as it was originally going to be called, wasn't exactly a "Fighting" kind of Badge, it's more closely linked to Psychic types.). Weedle Mchairybug 00:42, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
What do you think is more likely? That the Fighting Gym used Marsh Badges, or that Sabrina had a Hitmonlee-a Pokemon that Kiyo of the Fighting Dojo is known to have? When looking at the badge, I don't see anything obviously Psychic about it. Furthermore, I could see the word "Soul" being used for a Fighting badge. Alakazam17 2:18, 28 November 2008
You make a valid point, but this is all really just specualtion. And I can see soul for fighting.DCM((Shut the **** upSpy on My Edits))

But it's BS, so I erased it, considering Hitmonlee would need to bond with her telepathically--KukiTalk 19:22, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

So, I guess that Haunter must be removed as well then? I mean, if you want to remove [Hitmonlee] due to it not having a bond with her telepathically, then Haunter should also be removed due to the fact that it also isn't able to form a telepathic bond with it (It's a ghost/poison type, not a Psychic type.). Weedle Mchairybug 00:27, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Not to mention that the badges in the background didn't have to fit the battles which Otoshi won. I mean, the fact that Marsh Badge was shown in the background when showing a battle with Hitmonlee doesn't have to mean that he was fighting Hitmonlee was for Marsh Badge. It could be a different battle. --Maxim 19:23, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
Actually, the Volcano Badge Background matched perfectly (We do know that Blaine owns a Magmar.). Also, he was talking about how he had strived hard to get the badges, fought the gym leaders through huge trials, which also implies that the battle was indeed against Sabrina (and thus, the Hitmonlee was indeed hers.). If you don't want to list it as her pokemon, can we at least list it as "status unknown"? Weedle Mchairybug 00:26, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
I agree with Weedle. I mean, what's wrong in putting Hitmonlee as "status unknown". There is still a possibility it belongs to her since Magmar was also shown with the Volcano Badge in the very same flashback. Jmath 02:22, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Badges do not expire. Someone had to be the Gym Leader of Saffron City before her. That could have been the Fighting Dojo people, but we don't know for sure. What evidence do you have that Otoshi fought Sabrina for his Marsh Badge? None! That could have been anyone... her father, perhaps; maybe even Kiyo. We don't know if he even battled Sabrina or not, so there is not even enough proof to say that the Hitmonlee was her's to begin with. He could have faced any number of people with a Hitmonlee, it wasn't necesarily Sabrina, because they can't be Gym Leaders forever. Someone was before her...it isn't always going to be Sabrina handing out the Badge. Maylene started six months before Ash met her... Koga is no longer the gym leader for his gym... and Giovanni was no longer the leader either. It could have been someone else's. MaverickNate 02:32, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Big difference, Saffron City had TWO Gyms (one was the Fighting Dojo), those GLs that you mentioned had either inherited the same gym [Maylene, Janine], or got promoted [Gary/Blue]. In the case of Sabrina, the Saffron Gym beat out the Fighting Dojo for the Position of becoming a Gym Leader (and since Gyms have different badges, the Fighting Dojo is bound to have a different badge as well.), so technically, She IS the first Gym Leader of the NEW Saffron Gym to have existed (the original gym, the Fighting Dojo, was beaten out.). Weedle Mchairybug 02:41, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
How do you know that the Badge didn't just transfer over? If one beat out the other, they might have just taken the Fighting Dojo's badge, and used it for the Saffron Gym's. All we are doing is naming "ifs" and "buts" that aren't even true and are complete speculation. We have no proof what-so-ever that the Hitmonlee was her's. If it isn't true, it shouldn't be put in the article. MaverickNate 02:47, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Because, theres far more badges in kanto than in the games (It ranges between 27 badges, and over 100 badges), In order to fit all of these badges into the region, there needs to be more than 100 towns (which, even for the Anime's expanded version of Kanto, that's too much for the region.), I mean, we already have 33 Towns (counting the in-game towns), and even then, two of these towns are actually already part of another town (HopHopHop town and Scissors Street are all districts of Celadon City), which would make 31 towns total. In order for these 100 badges to exist in all 31 known cities, they need to do repeats (meaning, there needs to be more than one official town in the anime.), so, that means that, in the Anime, The Fighting Dojo, has to have another badge from the Marsh Badge. Weedle Mchairybug 03:05, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Since when do Gyms need to be in towns? They don't need to be in a town to be considered a gym. Just because all of the ones we know of are in cities and towns, doesn't mean they all are. Do you have any proof that they have to be? I do not think they have to, and that reasoning does not mean The Fighting Dojo has to have another badge from the Marsh Badge. Again, saying all these if statements doesn't get us anywhere. We have no proof that the Hitmonlee was hers, so it doesn't get to be in the article. MaverickNate 03:20, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
For all we know, there'll be an official Dark-type gym located smack dab in the middle of Route 308 in the country wherever Generation V takes place. Sure, I don't think this whole "100 gyms in anime Kanto" is an accurate figure, but the possibility of gyms on highways always exists...--Shiningpikablu252 04:43, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Seriously, no one is saying Hitmonlee does belong to Sabrina. Its just a possibility. It should be mentioned at least that Sabrina may have owned it. By making no mention of it, it's as if we know its 100% confirmed she doesn't have it. Since its not confirmed it should be in Status unknown. Jmath 05:19, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Another thing, just because the Fighting Dojo was in the games does NOT mean that it's in the Anime. If I must point out, they never even once referred to a Saffron Dojo, never mind it's being beaten by Saffron Gym. Another thing, a gym does NOT use the same badge as another gym, plus the Marsh badge doesn't even refer to Fighting Pokemon, it's referring to Psychic Pokemon. And just because it's not a Psychic type does NOT mean that it can't belong to Sabrina. If I must remind you, Koga also owned several Voltorb, which definitely would not be Poison types fitting for the gym, and Blaine has a Rhydon, which isn't a fire type at all. The Viridian Gym only utilized one Rock/Ground combination in each battle (ok, technically, Rhydon is Ground/Rock, but still), with the rest of the pokemon being a Psychic type, two water types, a psychic type, and two poison types) Weedle Mchairybug 02:47, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
EDIT: ok, I guess there's Pasta La Vista Baby in regards to the Saffron Dojo, but they definitely never mentioned the whole issue involving them being defeated by Saffron Gym. In fact, one can argue that the Anime implies that it never was an official Gym in the first place.

Sabrina as Evil?

Would you consider Sabrina to have been a temporary antagonist? DarkGiratina 19:13, 31 January 2009 (UTC)DarkGiratina

In the anime? Wouldn't the same be true for all Gym Leaders, seeing as they stand in the way of Ash's goals? — THE TROM — 20:24, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
I think he's referring to the fact that Sabrina turned her mom and Ash's friends into dolls. But I don't think she qualifies as an antagonist. --ケンジガール 20:34, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Her hair is dark green?

According to her FR/LG offical art(which is a different color from her others),it doesn't look very greenish. I don't remember the name of the color,but it doesn't look greenish. Lovely Rose 02:42, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, what's with the statement that her "official" hair colour is dark green? The ONLY place I see her hair being green at all is in the anime. Capsule Computer 09:44, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
It still doesn't look green. It seems like a mixture of blue and green, it's similar to game!Dawn's hair color(Navy blue) but lighter. Lovely Rose 02:37, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

Fighting Dojo?

Why does it say Fighting Dojo on her HG/SS battle team? --Jono R 12:00, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Because that's where all Gym Leader rematches take place in HGSS. --AndyPKMN 17:16, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Ahh, I've not had a rematch. lol, don't understand japanese so It's easier in platinum where their are certain Gym Leaders in the battle place without any requirements like phone numbers. --Jono R 08:41, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Sabrina's Appearance as of HG/SS

Okay I know it's the new design and everything, but PLEASE put back Sabrina's old picture; her new design just does not fit her at all, it is ridiculous, and the design we all grew up and recognize her as should stick --Crystallia 13:40, 08 Dec 2009

Just because that's your opinion that doesn't mean that it's also everyone else's. I like her new design, and as far as things work here, the newest possible artwork goes over anything else. ▫▪Ťïňắ 21:43, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
Okay so maybe you do like the design, but seriously? Dressing Sabrina up as a 16 year old teenager does not fit her, I'm very disappointed in the Game creators for this. I wouldn't have minded if they had redesigned her correctly, but this just feels wrong. --Crystallia
We need to keep everything updated. We all know it's different, but that's what she looks like as of HGSS. So it stays.--Midnight Blue 22:34, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Yellow levels

Are all her Pokémon really Lv.50 in Yellow or is that a mistake in the chart?--Zendude 04:54, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

Yes they are lv. 50. --Psyライダー 04:57, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks 50 just seemed insanely high when you compare her team in Red and Blue,--Zendude 16:50, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

All of the levels in Yellow (among all the gym leaders, and even the Elite Four) are higher. Even in some cases, the wild pokemon encountered in an area are higher. KurosakisTwin 09:23, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Where in Olivine is Sabrina?

I've been looking all over for her in Olivine, and I don't see her. I've gotten all 16 badges. Where is she? >.< KurosakisTwin 09:23, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

This really belongs in the forums, but I'll bite. She's on the dock where the S.S. Aqua makes port. You don't necessarily have to go on the boat; just flash your ticket, talk to Sabrina, and use Fly to go elsewhere. --AndyPKMN 11:50, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
Thank you, good sir. :) KurosakisTwin 11:56, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

what about Koga?

She, alongside Erika, is the only Gym Leader to have been defeated in the anime by Ash out of sequence with the games.

Now I might be wrong, since some of the games let you defeat some gyms in any order you want, but doesn't Koga fit in there too? Because I'm pretty sure Koga is always the fifth gym leader battle in the games, but Ash fought him as his sixth gym battle. Ash fought Sabrina, then Erika, then Koga. In A Manica 18:12, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

I came here to comment on that exact thing. In the games, the "correct" order is Erika, Koga, Sabrina. Ash fights them all out of order, as he fights Sabrina, then Erika, then Koga. RS89 (talk) 04:54, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

Who's wrong?

In her phone talks there are some s's I don't think to be there, does she really say that in the game or has somebody typed it wrong? Nickvang 17:29, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

Green things on Sabrina's wrists?

Just wondering, are those chains or some sort of bangles on her wrists? (Sméarglé (talk) 10:35, 26 July 2012 (UTC))

First, new topics at the bottom, second, if I had to guess they are bangles of some kind, but I don't really know. --Spriteit (talk) 12:04, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Contradiction

Okay, so it's weird saying in her information panel that she is in Generations I-V, but in the first section of the page itself, it says that she was not in Generation V. If you think she wasn't in V, she was a star at PokeStar Studios and also was in the Pokemon World Tournament. Elbunnies (talk) 22:08, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Gym leader trivia

I've got two possible trivia points, I'm just not sure if they could be included, I'm leaning towards them being a no but maybe have potential.

The first is Sabrina is the only Psychic-Type gym leader not to be seventh in the intended sequence, being sixth. I'm not sure with this as there are only three psychic-Type gym leaders. Saying this, I'm sure I've seen similar on another page (maybe Grant and Wulfric or their gyms? If it's their gyms, maybe Saffron gym instead of Sabrina?)

The second is that she's the only psychic-Type gym leader Ash has not faced in a double battle. This one is probably better in Saffron gym as Tate & Liza are 2 gym leaders yet Ash faced them together in a double battle. I was thinking this could be a no as, despite battling Team Rocket in a double battle for the Earth Badge, they weren't the standard until Gen III.

Both I'm unsure of as there are only three Psychic-Type gyms but four leaders if Tate & Liza are counted separately as they are in B2W2 Masser (talk) 22:52, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

Both of those aren't notable as they are too specific and it's only one out of four.--ForceFire 05:46, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
I thought it would be but on the Cyllage and Snowbelle Gyms about being "the only Rock-type Gym that is not the first Gym in its region" and "the only Ice-type Gym that is not the seventh Gym in its region" respectively. There are only four Gym leaders of each type giving me the idea that it could. I didn't want to add it just in case something like this was said. Masser (talk) 11:42, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

Sabrina's Alakazam

I Think Sabrinas Alakazam Should Have His Own Page CoolUmut77 19:08, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Why? Pokemon get their own page if there is enough relevant information about them and it just takes too much space on other page. Such criteria are fulfilled mostly when Pokemon has a bigger role (more than one episode for sure) in the anime or manga, because there is little to said about Pokemon in games. Also, there already is a very simiar page [1].--Rocket Grunt (Report To Me) 20:46, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
