==Possible origin: the Taowu==
One of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Perils Four Perils] of Chinese myth, the [https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%A2%BC%E6%9D%8C Taowu] appears to be the inspiration for Chien-Pao. It too is traditionally depicted as a feline creature (a tiger, in Taowu's case) with large fangs or tusks. Additionally, the fact that it's one of the Four Perils lines up with the fact that it's one of four Treasures of Ruin, especially given that all the other three also each correlate with one of the perils.

==Possible origin: the Hundun==
It might seem a bit of a stretch to say that Chi-Yu is based on the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hundun Hundun], but hear me out here. First of all, all three of the other Treasures of Ruin have a very clear connection with one of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Perils Four Perils] of Chinese mythology: Wo-Chien is the Taotie, Chien-Pao is the Taowu, and Ting-Lu is the Qionqi. That means that only the Hundun is left for Chi-Yu. Now the Hundun normally has multiple legs and wings, while Chi-Yu has... fins. But the Hundun is also meant to be a representation of ''chaos'' or flux, which flames does seem to fit. And the perhaps most clear connection is that the Hundun ''does not have a face'', while Chi-Yu's "eyes" are the beads themselves. Without the beads, Chi-Yu would have no eyes, and thus no face. If "primordial chaos with no face" was the inspiration, Chi-Yu definitely seems to fit the bill, which would complete the set of Perils embodied as pokemon.

==Possible (corrected) origin: the Qionqi==
Ting-Lu is actually probably NOT based on the Taotie, but rather the [https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%A9%B7%E5%A5%87 Qionqi]. It's another of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Perils Four Perils] of Chinese myth, an is specifically ox-like. Additionally, the Taotie lines up better as inspiration for Wo-Chien, as its design includes "a pair of raised eyes and typically no lower jaw area" as described by Wikipedia, which sounds a lot more like the snail than the bull. While Ting-Lu most certainly was created from a cursed ding, it is not itself the Taotie represented on dings, but rather the Qionqi. This especially makes sense when you consider that each of the four Treasures of Ruin has a counterpart it appears to take some degree of inspiration from out of the Four Perils.

I believe that Wo-Chien is meant to represent [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taotie the Taotie] of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Perils Four Perils] if Chinese myth. The Taotie, as seen by its image on the wikipedia page (go to the Chinese version for another image) notably has a pair of raised eyes that look rather like they're on stalks, or placed on a pair of antlers. This matches up with Wo-Chien's design; at a guess I'd imagine that they went with the snail design to match the existing motif of eyestalks. The other three also correspond well others of the Four Perils, there's a solid one to one matching going on here, plus the fact that there's ''four'' of them correlates with there being four of the perils in the first place.

ACDragonMaster: /* Flightlessness */

== Name origin ==
Decidueye comes from deciduous and eye.[[User:Ashitic|Ashitic]] ([[User talk:Ashitic|talk]]) 13:36, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
:It also likely draws inspiration from the term "deadeye" used in reference an expert marksman. [[User:Togeknight|~Destruction on Wings~]] ([[User talk:Togeknight|talk]]) 14:53, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
::To expand upon this its Japanese name is ジュナイパー, or Junaipaa. Probably draws from jukai (abundant leafage) and sniper, though I wonder what it'll be officially romanized to since Juniper is literally the name of a type of plant. --[[User:TheMaskedMeowth|TheMaskedMeowth]] ([[User talk:TheMaskedMeowth|talk]]) 15:00, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
:::To further expand, I think the inspiration for Decidueye's questionable typing lies in its name and appearance. Its cloak is brown, like a dead leaf, and "deciduous" refers to leaves that fall from shrubs and trees when they've matured and died (after which they become brown). The Ghost-typing (in place of the Flying-type) is a reference to dead leaves. Just thought I'd share in case anyone was confused. [[User:Blue Ninjakoopa|BNK]][[User talk:Blue Ninjakoopa|Talk]] 16:57, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
:Funny thing about the "{{wp|deadeye}}" inspiration, I thought it was more "{{wp|hawkeye}}". That's what I get for being into {{wp|Hawkeye (comics)|comic books}} too much. I guess either works, when you think about it. ----[[User:NateVirus|NateVirus]]''([[User talk:NateVirus|Talk]]''|''[[Special:Contributions/NateVirus|Contributions]]'') 20:19, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

==Biology==
"Decidueye is an avian Pokemon closely resembling an owl. Its most prominent feature is a green, leafy hood that covers its head and shoulders. A pale cream-colored feather with a red-orange base extends from the top of the hood. Beneath this cowl, its head is black with a hooked beak and a pale chin, and it has red-orange, spectacle-like markings on its face. Its large eyes have golden-brown irises and red pupils. The hood also features a four-pointed, red-orange leaf below the chin and two leaf-tipped vines that act as drawstrings. Decidueye can use one of these vines as a bowstring to launch arrow quills. The arrows are stored in its wings, which are large and light brown with whitish spots on the uppersides. The red-orange points of the arrow quills are visible in a row along the underside of each wing. The ends of the wings have three pale-tipped feathers which act as fingers, allowing it to grasp the bowstring and nock arrows to attack. The tail consists of three leaves growing from its back. The body is cream-colored with fluffy feathers on the breast and long, powerful legs that are fully feathered. The feet have four sharp talons in a zygodactyl configuration, with two toes forward and two back.

This Pokemon is able to completely mask its presence as it moves around. When it finds an opening, it can draw, nock, and fire an arrow quill in as little as a tenth of a second. The arrows fly with astounding speed and amazing precision, piercing targets from over a half-mile away. Skilled Decidueye are capable of launching curved trick shots, attacking with arrows that soar skyward and drill down from above, striking multiple targets. Although it usually acts very cool, unexpected situations like surprise attacks can leave it terribly flustered."

== Origin ==

Although it's currently listed as possibly being inspired by an archer and a barn owl, might it instead be based off a pueo? Pueo are owls only found in Hawaii and are notable for having a white ring around their dark faces, resembling a hood. They have a notable significance in traditional Hawaiian culture, and is one of the forms of the god Kane. [[User:Mimi|Mimi]] ([[User talk:Mimi|talk]]) 23:47, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
:That could be a possibility, though there have been plenty of starters that are based on animals that arguably aren't found in the country/part of the world their [[region]] is based off of let alone many Pokémon introduced in a region that isn't based on their real world habitat. If anything, I would think that the possibility that Decidueye is based on a {{wp|pueo}} would go along side the barn owl bit. But that's just me. Also one can fit the pueo inspiration into its {{t|Ghost}} typing, since the pueo is associated with the Hawaiian spirits known as {{wp|aumakua}}. But then again that might be something that was more meant for the [[Guardian deities]] like [[Tapu Koko]]----[[User:NateVirus|NateVirus]]''([[User talk:NateVirus|Talk]]''|''[[Special:Contributions/NateVirus|Contributions]]'') 00:03, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
:Another idea, might be crazy, {{wp|stilt-owl}}, they are an extinct owl from Hawaii. Though Decidueye is a {{t|Ghost}} type, not {{t|Rock}}. But like I said, just a crazy idea to add to all this. Take it how you will. ----[[User:NateVirus|NateVirus]]''([[User talk:NateVirus|Talk]]''|''[[Special:Contributions/NateVirus|Contributions]]'') 01:21, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
::No one has any idea what stilt-owls ever looked like, really. But Rowlet's family looks pretty well like a barn owl.

[[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:37, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
:::No, I see no reason not to mention stilt-owls. Decidueye lacks a barn owl's very distinctive face. There's no indication in either the name or the lore that it's specifically a barn owl. It seems to be a mix of a couple of different owl species, or no owl in particular, as opposed to one specific species.

:Heh.

That last part is just {{tt|a self-justification on its typing|as I said}} and is basically a "{{tt|WIP|work in progress}}", as I'll just wait and see what else happens. ;) If there are any "dots" that will be connected or the like, then "cool-beans". ----[[User:NateVirus|NateVirus]]''([[User talk:NateVirus|Talk]]''|''[[Special:Contributions/NateVirus|Contributions]]'') 02:50, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

I'm seeing rumors crop up on Twitter that Decidueye is based on the [[wp:stilt-owl]], an ancient owl that was native to Hawaii, but went extinct some time between Hawaii's initial colonization by what are now native Hawaiians and the arrival of Europeans. They are only known today from fossil record. --[[User:Macsen|Macsen]] ([[User talk:Macsen|talk]]) 13:36, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

It could be possible that Decidueye's design may have been inspired by the {{wp|Ornimegalonyx}}, or the Cuban Giant Owl. This prehistoric owl is noted for its long, powerful legs, a trait that is likely seen with Decidueye's design and description of speed. And as these owls are flightless birds, it can also explain how Decidueye loses its flying typing. ([[User:BizarreJoDo|BizarreJoDo]] ([[User talk:BizarreJoDo|talk]]) 19:07, 28 October 2016 (UTC))

Maybe it's Ghost Typing could come from the evil owl spirit La Lechuza in Mexican folklore. She was an old woman who was murdered by a group of townspeople that considered her a "witch" who now comes back in the form of an owl to attack those who wronged her. A more light hearted basis could be on Santa Muerte (Holy Death) a revered figure of death in Mexican folklore who acts as a protector, healer, and helps with travel into the afterlife. She is often depicted with an owl, as owls are her messengers, and it is even believed that if someone hears the cry of an owl, than death is soon to come. Santa Muerte then guides the soul of the person who died into the afterlife. [[User:Logo7|Logo7]] ([[User talk:Logo7|talk]]) 15:53, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

It went from Grass/Flying to Grass/Ghost.
[[User:Chrisbulb|Christian]] ([[User talk:Chrisbulb|talk]]) 00:52, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

:I thought about that, but considering that Rowlet is only the second starter Pokémon to start with two types (after Bulbasaur), it's not like there was a "trend" of dual-type starter Pokémon keeping both types in the first place. I dunno. —[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 15:10, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

You know how a duel type starter like Bulbasaur keeps its type combination throughout its entire evolutionary line, Rowlet changes its secondary typing when it evolves into its final stage. This is the first time this has happened to a starter Pokémon.

Here is another thing about adding to that trivia fact: '''Decidueye is the first starter Pokémon to change one of its types upon evolution, not counting Mega Evolution.'''

== Falconry mask and Hawks ==

Hey, I noticed this the other day when looking at some images of Falconry, but I believe part of Decidueye's design comes from falconry masks. These masks are used to blind the falcon and make them essentially "rest", but often have something on top. This something on top usually consists of a knot or something, but sometimes may have a feather. It may also be based on the character Pet Shop from the manga series, "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure." This character is a peregrine falcon with a feathered falconry mask inspired helmet. This character is very deadly and silent, which (if this character did help inspire Decidueye) could explain the Ghost-typing some. The reason I did not ignore this possibility is because of how popular the manga series is in Japan, being just as influential in media and a huge pop cultural icon for 30 years. On top of that, we've already seen that GameFreak and the designers are nerds too with Aggron's, Nidoking/queen's, and Vikavolt's design inspirations as well as Hydreigon's and Tyranitar's Japanese names.

The point related to hawks that I wanted to bring up is that I believe Decidueye is based on the Hawaiian hawk. This species of hawk is considered Endangered by the United states, but Near Threatened by the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources). The reason is most likely because of fossil record indications of it once existing on several islands, but is extinct on all but the main island. In Hawai'i, it is recognized as a royal symbol and sometimes called an exalted hawk, which I believe fits well with the classy look of Dartrix and the possibly classy look of Decidueye.
Oh, forgot to add, hawks have the long legs that stilt owls are known to have, so it may be a combination of the two animals.

According to both here and Serebii.net, Decidueye and Primarina can't learn Hyper Beam but Incineroar can?? That seems... off, considering that normally all fully-evolved starters can learn it.

Decidueye's loss of a Flying type for a Ghost type, as well as the fact that its [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XA0ClmKH4A cut running animation] shows it running on the ground (instead of flying like its pre-evos) seems to imply that it became flightless upon evolution.

ACDragonMaster: /* Flightlessness */

Player Search System

2013-11-17T06:40:22Z

ACDragonMaster: /* O-Powers */

The '''Player Search System''' (Japanese: '''プレイヤーサーチシステム'''), or '''PSS''' for short, is an item that appears in [[Generation VI]] and is the [[Pokémon X and Y]] version of the [[C-Gear]]. It has many different functions, including the [[Global Terminal|GTS]], Wonder Trade, O-Powers, and more.

The main window of the PSS divides other players in three categories: Friends, Acquaintances, and Passersby. A Passerby will automatically become an Acquaintance if a Battle or Trade (including [[Wonder Trade]]s) is made with him/her: after trading or battling with a player already in the Acquaintances, a prompt to add them to the Friends group will appear.

Players in the Friends group are registered as friends in the 3DS's friend list, and vice versa. When a player is registered as a Friend, his/her Safari can be accessed (even if he/she doesn't have a copy of Pokémon X/Y).

==Global Trade Station==
{{main|Global Trade Station}}
In Generation VI, the Global Trade Station can now be accessed in many more places than just [[Pokémon Center|Pokémon Centers]] in [[Generation V]] or the Global Terminal/GTS building in [[Generation IV]]. Unlike in previous generations, the player can now ask for Pokémon that have not yet been registered in the player's [[Pokédex]].

==Wonder Trade==
{{main|Wonder Trade}}
Wonder Trade allows players to [[trade]] Pokémon for another one without even knowing what he or she is going to get. This means that using Wonder Trade is both an advantage and a risk. The player can easily earn Poké Miles and more [[ID number]]s this way, giving them a better chance of winning prizes at the ID Lottery in [[Lumiose City]], as well as get a very rare Pokémon, but they can also get weak and/or common Pokémon in exchange for the stronger and/or rarer Pokémon they offered. [[Eggs]] cannot be traded in Wonder Trade.

==O-Powers==
O-Powers are very similar to {{DL|Entralink|Pass Powers}}, as they give power-ups, increase or decrease the chances of things happening, and can be shared with other players. In addition, if one is used nearby by another player, the player can use it as well. At the lowest rate of O-Power regeneration, it takes 4 minutes to fill an entire circle.

The O-Power meter regenerates more quickly based on the number of steps counted for the current day on the user's 3DS. The user does not need to have the game running while they accumulate steps on their 3DS. This bonus can be seen as a number next to the clock by the power meter. Because the step counter resets at midnight, this regeneration bonus also resets at midnight. The thresholds are as follows:

{| class="wikitable"
| 0-1999 steps
| 1x regeneration rate
|-
| 2000-2999 steps
| 2x regeneration rate
|-
| 3000-3999 steps
| 3x regeneration rate
|-
| 4000+ steps
| 4x regeneration rate
|}

O-Powers are given the the player by [[Mr. Bonding]]. They can be upgraded by frequent usage. Each level after the previous one will provide a more significant effect but cost more energy to activate.

ACDragonMaster: /* Trivia? */ new section

== Trivia ==

Isn't it a bit early to jump the gun about the Misty comment? Not only does this not air for essentially a month, I don't believe even a description has been leaked. There's no confirmation that not only will the Togepi NOT be Misty's, but there's no confirmation that Misty's Togetic won't appear. I assume this would be similar to when you see a pokemon evolve clearly in the preview for the next episode (Ash's Staravia), but you can't add it til the episode airs, shouldn't it be removed until there's concrete evidence Misty/her Togetic is NOT in the episode? (I'm well aware the chances are pretty much 0%, but at the same time, there's still a slim chance until something is sourced, as it's a month away.) EDIT: And to explain: For all we know, Togetic calls Misty to his world, and she ends up popping out with Ash + Gang, where she catches another Togepi, in similar fashion to how she caught Psyduck. Just explaining a plausible situation that could disprove the comment. Again, I'm WELL AWARE this isn't hers, but the comment shouldn't be there, I'd think... [[User:Myzou|Myzou]] 03:05, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:Could well have a flashback, too. Comment hidden until aired. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 03:21, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::Can we try and remove the whole "Fantasy" part? For all we know, that could be the actual Giovanni that appears in that episode (either that, or an android made in his image that's not in a fantasy). Going by the preview hinting that JJM just made a new base in Sinnoh for TR, it could actually be the real Giovanni, for all we know. Basically, can we remove the whole "Fantasy" issue until AFTER the episode has aired?) [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 01:08, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

:That Rayquaza wasn't real, though. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 18:49, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
And ...??
Several legendary Pokemon and characters appeared in the anime through imagination. Mew is an example, Professor Birch is another ...[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] 20:49, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
:Yes, but that Rayquaza was not a Rayquaza, it was a Mismagius. [[User:Turtwig A|Turt]][[wig]] [[Turtwig (Pokémon)|A]] ([[User talk:Turtwig A|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Turtwig A|contribs]]) 02:19, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
What does not change the fact represented was a Rayquaza in the episode, the Mew that appeared in DP092 appeared in a fantasy boss, and was credited in the Bulbapedia here as the first appearance of it.
Based on this logic, Mew never appeared in the anime and it should be removed as well as the mention of the Sinnoh Elite 4 in the anime Lucian when talking about the team ...[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] 21:19, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
::The fact is, on the page for that episode with the mismagius, it says this

==Notable?==
I think I know the answer, but am I the only one who thinks the Togepi in this episode is notable for its own article? Yes, it only appeared in this episode, but it acted as the character of the day for it as well and, as it says on the Notability Requirements page, that, in a rare instance, a page for a Pokémon may be made if they acted as the COD, which it did and its not like it had no personality, it was full of it. What do you guys think?--[[User:Skystar|Skystar]] 20:25, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Sure, why not. It definetly seems notable. [[User:Sudowooper|Sudowooper]] 01:41, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
:I know this is an ancient discussion, but I'd just like to register my astonishment at the fact that nothing about this has been done yet. I personally agree completely with the idea of a page for this Togepi. Effectively, she was the CotD of this episode, and had a heck of a lot more personality than some other CotDs. In fact, I'll make this page myself right now. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno.

Worth noting that in this episode [http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/5585/vlc00001g.png James strikes a pose] that looks to be copying one made famous by [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&site=&tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1680&bih=886&q=gendo+pose a certain other anime character]?

ACDragonMaster: /* Based off France? */

{{forums notice|October 1, 2013}}

== Titles missing "Version"? ==
Do the titles include "version" this time? I'm not seeing it on the official site or the trailer. I think they're just called Pokemon X and Pokemon Y now. [[User:Hheebo|Hheebo]] ([[User talk:Hheebo|talk]]) 14:17, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

== Pokémon X and Y "Versions"? ==

Is it right to be calling them Pokemon X Version and Pokemon Y version? Unlike previous games Nintendo hasn't used the word "version" when referring to them by name, just calling them Pokemon X and Pokemon Y rather than, to use the most recent example, "Pokemon Black Version 2" and "Pokemon White Version 2". The logos don't contain the word "version" either. I think they should simply be referred to as Pokemon X and Y.
EDIT: Ninja'd by Hheebo. Delete if necessary.
[[User:NFreak007|NFreak007]] ([[User talk:NFreak007|talk]]) 14:19, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

:I second this. "Versions" hasn't been mentioned at all, nor are contained in the logos. If "Versions" were in the title, there's usually a habit of saying it every time the game title comes up. It's misleading to list the article as it being called "X and Y ''Versions''" if there really isn't any facts backing that up. --[[User:Manaphy1|Manaphy1]] 16:20, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
::Thirded. It should be [[Pokémon X and Y]], as I stated on [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2]]'s trivia section. Please rename this page and change this article and the Generation VI one accordingly. [[User:Digifiend|Digifiend]] ([[User talk:Digifiend|talk]]) 17:15, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

:::::::I think it would be a good idea to move it to [[Pokémon X and Y]], 'cause it doesn't even say the name "version" in the title. In previous games, the official sources have said "Pokémon [title] Version" only if it has the word "version in the logo. These games are different, they don't have "version" in the title at all, so I really wouldn't see any reason to have it titled "Pokémon X and Y Versions".—[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 10:29, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
::::::::I would like to agree with the page move as well, but I really can't say until there is more usage of just "Pokemon X and Y" an not "Pokemon X version and Pokemon Y version". I am undecided since I've seen Pokémon Direct recordings with the word "version" in it (like in the picture posted by Masatoshi), but everything else points to just calling it [[Pokémon X and Y]]. - ''[[User:Vhayes1992|Vhayes]]1992'' 23:38, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
:The official press release repeatedly lists the trademarked titles as ''Pokémon X'' and ''Pokémon Y'' and never uses the term "Version." Excerpt: "''Pokémon X'' and ''Pokémon Y'' will be the blueprint for an exciting array of new animation, Pokémon TCG, and toys debuting around the world."
:In all of their press releases for other games in the series they use "Version," for example this excerpt from the B2W2 press release: "The successors to the acclaimed ''Pokémon Black Version'' and ''Pokémon White Version'' games, ''Pokémon Black Version 2'' and ''Pokémon White Version 2''..."

::::I'm against moving this page, at the very least until further information is available. "Version" is part of what separates the main series for games like Stadium, XD, and the like. Furthermore, there is at least some evidence that these games are still titled "X Version" and "Y Version" as seen in the picture Masa posted. It seems to me like the company is merely advertising the game in this manner because this is how the fandom always refers to the games, that is, without the word "version". Furthermore, this is probably simpler since it saves them the trouble of having to write "version" in several different languages all at once (remember, this is getting an instant worldwide release, and "Pokemon" is pretty universal while "version" isn't). We should at least wait a while before moving the page, and then having to move it back again. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 23:49, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
:::::Just to clarify, Masatoshi's image wasn't official; the official trailer doesn't have that banner on it, nor refers to them at all as having "Versions".

::::::His image was official. [http://www.nintendo.nl/Divers/Nintendo-Direct/Laatstse-Nintendo-Direct/Nintendo-Direct-698557.html This] is official straight from Nintendo's website.

==New region==
In this article it states that the new region is likely based off of France but the [[Generation VI]] page says it draws inspiration from various points within Europe. The pages should be more consistent and more neutral about the subject. [[User: Ariano|Արիանո]] 14:50, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
* The Nintendo Direct Trailer begins with Pikachu atop the Eiffel Tower. Unova draws from inspirations outside of the strict real world New York; it's not conflicting to say it's both based on France and draws inspiration from the rest of Europe.

==Based off France?==
To suggest the region will 'likely' be based on France seems to be speculation of the sort that the banner of the top forbids, Tokyo also has a structure like the Eiffel Tower. [[User:Alexsau1991|Alexsau1991]] ([[User talk:Alexsau1991|talk]]) 17:12, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
:The streets have an European-like setting; Pikachu spread his message from a location that seemed to be the same as France; that tower looks like the Eiffel Tower and it seems to use gray instead of white and red. While it's not confirmed, it is plausible that the region might be based in France. [[User:Masatoshi|Masatoshi]][[User_talk:Masatoshi|''talk'']] 17:18, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
::While it seems plausible, even likely. Isn't it still speculation? And why the entire region, rather than that particular city (I don't recall France having a desert, for example)? Castelia City in Black and White is said to be based off New York, yet the entire region isn't said to be based on the USA. [[User:Alexsau1991|Alexsau1991]] ([[User talk:Alexsau1991|talk]]) 17:23, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
:::There's a big difference between the USA and France, the US is a massive country (in terms of size and little would be explored, if not ignoring plenty of cities). I for one think it ''may'' be based in Europe, but that city, along with that picture with the bridge remind me of the {{wp|Palace of Versailles}}. Most people seem to agree it might be based in Europe/France, so for the time being, we'll leave it like this. [[User:Masatoshi|Masatoshi]][[User_talk:Masatoshi|''talk'']] 17:50, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

:::Regardless it is very blatant '''speculation''', of which this encyclopaedia has clearly warned it's editors of avoiding. Popular agreement is '''NOT''' ''"confirmation by a reliable source"''. What's the point in that rule, if your so keen on breaking it? [[User:Alexsau1991|Alexsau1991]] ([[User talk:Alexsau1991|talk]]) 18:41, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
::::Yeah, I do agree that it's speculation right now. It's like when everybody put Kyurem as the third member of the Tao trio before it was confirmed, despite them arguing tooth and nail and out right refusing to allow Giratina to be stated as the third member of the Dragon trio before Platinum came out [[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 20:28, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
:::::Exactly. It's really inconsistent. As an admin, it seems as if Masatoshi is going for a 'do as I say, not as I do'. You can't rule 'no speculation', then allow a piece that you favour, or personally find convincing.
:::::Even if the Eiffel Tower could be considered more than speculation, how do we arrive at the fact the WHOLE region is based on France?.. It's conjecture after conjecture... [[User:Alexsau1991|Alexsau1991]] ([[User talk:Alexsau1991|talk]]) 01:04, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
::::::In the trailer, Pikachu is seen on top of the Eiffel Tower. Literally. The camera zooms out and shows it in France. Saying the region is based on France is less of speculation, and more of an observation giving readers some idea what the region looks like. Rather than explaining every tiny little detail about the location, we can just blanket sweep it by saying, "It looks a lot like France." But obviously it's NOT France, cause Pokémon regions have almost never been real locations. (Sans Kanto. Kind of.)

::::::::I should also point out that Junichi Masuda's current Twitter profile picture is him next to the Eiffel Tower and there is at least one message commenting on his trip to France.

:::::::::Texas has an Eiffel Tower. Japan has a Statue of Liberty too, but Japan isn't the first place you think of when you think of the Statue of Liberty, is it? Then don't even get me started on Las Vegas. Pikachu is in the real life France in the intro, the girl's attire seems very French to me personally, the Pokémon team went to France for "work related reasons". I don't really see anything pointing it away from France, and I'm done having this discussion. There are more important things to worry about.

:::::::::::Pretty sure there's not a desert full of ancient ruins or mountain ranges in New York City, either, yet they're both in Unova. The game COULD be based in all of Europe, but so far we've only seen evidence of France. Saying the game "seems to be based on France" doesn't exclude the possibility of it also being based on other areas as well, in any case. --[[User:ACDragonMaster|ACDragonMaster]] ([[User talk:ACDragonMaster|talk]]) 02:54, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

== Region is based in France ==

Besides the obvious Eiffel Tower reference, I found out that the buildings shown are reminiscent of Paris's type (which was forced as an official style there) and additionally, the place Pikachu is giving the conference is Paris.
I'm including the picture for future reference.

Talk:Spiritomb (Pokémon)

2012-12-02T19:20:43Z

ACDragonMaster: /* Possible more likely origin for Spiritomb */ new section

== Level in the wild ==

What level does this pokémon appear in the wild at? I seen to be unable to find this information anywhere. (Of course, I might have just not looked hard enough...) --[[User:Tatrion|Tatrion]

It appears at the Hallowed Tower after talking to 32 people underground at level 25 (See entry for Hallowed Tower.) [[User:Yugiohguy1|Yugiohguy1]] 16:29, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

==Two things Spiritomb and Sableye have in common==
Having weaknesses to no type is one of the things Spiritomb and Sableye have in common. Another thing Spiritomb and Sableye have in common is that they are both Dual Dark and Ghost types.
[[User:FREAKAZOID|FREAKAZOID]]
:That's the reason for their lack of weaknesses. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] [[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fabu-Vinny|C]]-[[User:Fabu-Vinny/Sandbox|S]] 22:56, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
::Indeed. FREAKAZOID.
Jeez... People. Spiritomb/Sableye does have a weakness. To fighting, use foresight to hit ghosts with fighting, and hit it. Its supereffective.
:Naturally, it doesn't. After using Miracle Eye and Foresight doesn't count, because they aren't automatic. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 03:12, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

what about Kangaskhan and Miltank's "Scrappy" ability? doesn't that account for anything?

They're the only Pokémon that have no PERMANENT weakness to any type. Abilities like Scrappy and moves like Foresight are only TEMPORARY ways of giving them a weakness; without resorting to those moves/Abilities, they have no weakness. [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 17:05, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

==Eggs Moves==
Should we add about that Spiritomb can learn {{m|Shadow Ball}} from breeding??? Since I breed the Spiritomb with my Misdreavus. And It have {{m|Shadow Ball}} and {{m|Pain Split}} as it egg moves. [[User:chungkingpun|chungkingpun]] 13:55, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

It got Shadow Ball because Spiritomb can learn it from a TM, not because it's an Egg Move. [[User:Master Lucario|Master Lucario]]

== Fly? ==

So, I was doing some breeding and I bred my {{p|Drifblim}} and my Spiritomb and when Spiritomb came out of the egg, it had {{m|Fly}} as a move, along with {{m|Shadow Ball}}, {{m|Confuse Ray}}, and {{m|Ominous Wind}}. Even after that, I hatched more Spiritomb eggs and they all had Fly as a move. Drifblim was the father and knew Fly, along with Shadow Ball and Ominous Wind. Spiritomb of course was the mother, with Shadow Ball, Ominous Wind, Silver Wind, and Dark Pulse. Does anyone know why? --[[User:PsychicRider|'''Psychic''']][[User talk:PsychicRider|'''Rider''']]''''[[Special:Contributions/PsychicRider|'''☮''']]'' 03:02, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
:That's odd...I've never seen that before. --[[user:chocolate|Cho]][[user talk:chocolate|col]][[special:contributions/chocolate|ate]] 01:32, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
::I don't have Wi-fi or that stuff to trade to someone for proof. But one of their detail screens has this information: a Timid Nature, Mischievous characteristic, Fly, Shadow Ball, Confuse Ray, and Ominous Wind, egg received August 30, hatched August 31st, female, hatched at Lv 1 at Solaceon Town. I don't have an Action Replay or Gameshark so I know it wasn't a move modifier. --[[User:PsychicRider|'''Psychic''']][[User talk:PsychicRider|'''Rider''']]''''[[Special:Contributions/PsychicRider|'''☮''']]'' 01:36, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
:::I'll try that myself and see what happens. --[[user:chocolate|Cho]][[user talk:chocolate|col]][[special:contributions/chocolate|ate]] 21:14, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
::::I have tried it. Oddly enough, it works. Maybe someone should add it. But i think someone else should check, just to be on the safe side. [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK Leiks Lucario and The Celebi Glitch]] 17:07, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

== Spiritomb/Rotom/Lucario/etc. ==

It varies from person to person, but I know some hardcore Pokémon fans who claim that rare 'semi-Legendaries' like Lucario and Rotom should be given some special classification. Has this ever been a consideration (I'm neutral on the issue itself)? [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]]
:Hmmm... i have seen it happen before. Maybe a page called "Pseudo-Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon" would work. I'll ask Turtwig A. He'll know. [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK Leiks Lucario and The Celebi Glitch]] 17:11, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
::I know nothing about it. [[User:Turtwig A|Turt]][[wig]] [[Turtwig (Pokémon)|A]] ([[User talk:Turtwig A|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Turtwig A|contribs]]) 17:40, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
:::No. They're not even semi-legendary. And it doesn't matter if they're hardcore fans. Some people would consider Charizard, or anybody else that has a good sweep, as a semi-legendary. Lucario definitely isn't, seeing as how common it and Riolu are, Rotom is just rare, and Spiritomb is the same situation as Rotom. No need for a page. That's like saying that Feebas and Milotic are semi-legendary because of how hard they are to find. '''[[Team Rocket|R.A.]] [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Hunter]] [[User Talk:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Blade]]''' 19:00, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

== Its possible origin ==

It might base on one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature, Water Margin (traditional Chinese: 水滸傳; simplified Chinese: 水浒传; pinyin: Shuǐhǔ Zhuàn) (also Outlaws of the Marsh, All Men Are Brothers or The Marshes of Mount Liang).
Its opening episode is the release of '''the 108 spirits'''.
For knowing more info, here is for you:

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_Margin English Language Wikipedia's Info of Water Margin]

[http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/水浒传 Chinese Language Wikipedia's Info of Water Margin]

[http://baike.baidu.com/view/2578.htm Chinese Language Baike's Info of Water Margin]

P/S: I am Chinese, so my English is sucks. If you have any difficult in understanding what I type when viewing this one, I am sorry about it. {{unsigned|06cloud}}

== Sucker Punch? ==

I just noticed this, but how can it use that move when it has no apparent limbs?[[User:Morgil27|Morgil27]] 20:55, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
:Look at the Japanese name... It has nothing to do with punching. It's just a figure of speech. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 20:57, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

== 108 and Legion ==

''"In Pokémon Diamond, Spiritomb's entry states that it was formed from 108 spirits. Incidentally, Spiritomb's number in the Sinnoh Pokédex is 108, its Defense and Special Defense base values are 108, and it weighs exactly 108.0 kilograms."''
This bit of trivia makes it sound like it's all a coincidence, but that's highly [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/108_%28number%29#In_Eastern_religions_.26_traditions unlikely]. Does anyone else think this bit should be changed to reflect the obvious references here?

Also, I'm going to take down the part about the Legion demon being a possible inspiration for Legion, since I really doubt that Nintendo would intentionally make a Pokemon based on a demon, especially considering all the heat they get simply from ''perceived'' [[Pokémon controversy|Satanism]]. --[[User:Dual|Dual]] 08:02, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

:I fail to see your point about the Legion thing. Especially considering how it refers to itself as "We". IMO i don't think that should've been removed. [[User:Morgil27|Morgil27]] 08:44, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

==Odd piece of trivia==
It's always been said that there's no such thing as an evil Pokémon - yet it is stated that Spiritomb was clearly cruel and evil, enough so to be sealed away. Any thoughts? I'd add it to the trivia section but (stating the obvious), it's protected. ^^; [[User:Lucadan|'''''Lucadan''''']] [[User talk:Lucadan|'''''(Talk)''''']] 15:37, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

==In other languages==
Between "means" and what the character means, mentally add ", among other things,", as languages like Korean, Chinese and Japanese use the same symbols to mean different things, and it can be hard to tell which meaning was intended.

Korean: 화 means "flower", 강 means "river", and 돌 means "stone"; there is also the word 화강 which means "granite". This suggests that the Korean name for Spiritomb is either "flower river stone" or "granite stone", neither of which really makes sense. Are you sure that 화강돌 is the actual Korean name?

Chinese: 花 means "multicolored" or "flowery", 岩 means "rock", and 怪 means "monster". So the Chinese name for Spiritomb is something along the lines of "multicolored/flowery rock monster", which kinda makes sense.

Japanese (side note): 軽石 just means "light stone", and is used to ''refer'' to pumice; it does not actually ''mean'' "pumice". This could be a reference to the fact that Spiritomb resides in stones, and yet it is itself a ghost (therefore light). 御影石 is used to refer to granite, but the characters mean "honorable shadow stone", which is a fitting description of the Odd Keystone.

'''[[User:The Token Asian Guy|The Token Asian Guy]]''' 00:35, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

== Based on Irish mythology? ==

According to the origin section: "Spiritomb could also be based on 'The Elemental,' an indescribable primitive ghost created from countless spirts that derive from Irish Mythology."
I really kind of doubt that Spiritomb could be based on an Irish myth...should it really be included? [[User:Wolf|Wolf]] 03:53, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
:Why? {{tt|Because it's Irish?|I kid}} I did find something [http://www.hauntedcastlesandhotels.com/Ireland/leap.htm here] and [http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=7741 here] though. I think it's just as plausible as the Chinese and Buddhist myths, although they're both Asian myths and much closer to Japan. But, Spiritomb was created in the last few years, instead of a hundred years ago where it definitely wouldn't be based off of the Elemental. '''[[Team Rocket|R.A.]] [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Hunter]] [[User Talk:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Blade]]''' 04:13, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

== Met at level 62? ==

Recently I was on the GTS and found a spiritomb up for trade. I had what the person wanted, and got it. When I looked at it's summery, it said that it had been caught with a masterball, at level 62, at the pokemon league! It has the same moves as Karen's spiritomb, and is at the same level. Is there a cheat that allows you to catch trainers pokemon? I also got a gardevior caught in the same manner, and and it has the same moves as Will's gardevior. {{unsigned|Fishmonk}}
:Yeah, there is a cheat to capture trainers' Pokémon. Using an Action Replay. Both Spiritomb and Gardevoir are hacked. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno. Master|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missingno._Master|contribs]])'' 15:11, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

== Methods of Obtaining Spiritomb ==

* As of {{2v2|Black|White}}, all methods of obtaining Spiritomb in the main games (discounting {{pkmn|breeding}}) involve connecting with another device (another player's [[Nintendo DS]] or the [[Pokéwalker]]).

Well, first off, B/W can't connect with the Pokewalker. This means that the only way to get it is by connecting with another person's DS - ie, transferring it from a Gen. IV game. That's the only way to obtain a number of Pokemon in Gen. V, so this piece of "trivia" is kind of pointless, don't you think? [[User:King Riolu|King Riolu]] 11:16, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
:'''HeartGold and SoulSilver'''. That's what connects to the Pokewalker. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 11:18, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
Sorry, I read that wrong. Thought it said "in" Black and White rather than "as of" Black and White. [[User:King Riolu|King Riolu]] 11:20, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

== In the anime ==

Why do we have the '''minor appearances''' thing? We probably won't see Spiritomb for a while, especially since it's only has 1 appearance in about 10 years. Should we just take out the '''minor appearances''' part? --[[User:Pringles|'''P'''r]][[User talk:Pringles|'''i'''ngles]] 04:04, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
:It's there because that's how the structure should be like. Regardless if it's empty or not, it stays. - ''unsigned comment from {{u|Force Fire}} ([[User talk:Force Fire|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Force Fire|contribs]]) ''

== Possible more likely origin for Spiritomb ==

I'm not so sure that Spiritomb's 108 spirits are meant to be directly referencing the ringing of a bell 108 times in Buddhist tradition, so much as a reference to the 108 spirits that were sealed away for centuries and then released at the beginning of the old Chinese novel [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_Margin Water Margin]. Within the story, the spirits (or demons, depending on translation) were evil and had been sealed away centuries before (presumably because of their evil actions) and were not to be released because they would cause trouble and disaster if they were. This closely parallels both Spiritomb's pokedex entries referencing it being made of spirits being sealed away for "misdeeds" or to prevent it from doing "mischief" and so on, as well as its portrayal in the anime in [[DP056|The Keystone Pops]] where again, Spiritomb was sealed away for misdeeds and caused trouble upon being carelessly released. Admittedly, the 108 spirits in Water Margin probably came from Buddhist tradition in the first place (even though the spirits in the novel were sealed in a Taoist temple...) however Spritiomb seems to clearly be based more directly on the concept of "108 spirits sealed under/in a stone that would cause problems if released" rather than "108 temptations to be banished once a year". Even the species name of "Forbidden" pokemon reflects the forbidden nature of releasing the 108 spirits, with the Taoist priests telling Marshal Hong they don't know any details about the demons, just that it's forbidden to release them. (Or alternatively, the Japanese species name of "Sealed" again reflects the spirits that were sealed away and not to be released.) Since Water Margin is very, very famous both in China and Japan (the entire Suikoden series of games is loosely based on it!) I think this is a more realistic inspiration for Spiritomb than a single Buddhist tradition that doesn't explain other details like the presence of the Odd Keystone and such. --[[User:ACDragonMaster|ACDragonMaster]] ([[User talk:ACDragonMaster|talk]]) 19:20, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

== Lots of information about Hiun City ==

Hello, I have a lot of information to add, but don't have time to organize. I'll put them here and someone plz add them later to the article.
*There's a Pokémon massagist in the building in front of Game Freak. She gives one massage per day.
*In Atelier Hiun, there's a clown that asks you to show a Pokémon of certain type each day. If you do so, he lets you choose one of the five berries: Cheri, Chesto, Pecha, Rawst and Aspear.
*In the north street (way to Route 4), there are 3 buildings:
**In the left one, there's and old man that changes Pokémon names and, in the 11th floor, there's a scientist that asks you two passwords of two words each. This enables the Transfer Machine (similar to Mystery Gift). In the japanese version, the first password is みんな　ハッピー (everyone happy) and the second is かんたん　つうしん (easy conection).
**In the second building to the right, there's a scientist that verifies the number of seen Pokémon. I received the item しんかのきせき (I think this item name is Evolution Locus, but a literal translation would be Evolution Miracle) for showing a Pokédex with 33 seen Pokémon. Searching the net, someone got it with 28 seen Pokémon. What about you?
All information put here may refer only to White version, someone plz verify it in Black version.
I'd like to discuss another thing. The first Dancer I battled was the grass monkey (Yanappu) one. My first Pokémon was Tsutarja. I'd like to know if everyone battled first the Yanappu dancer at Central Park, or if the first battle was with the Dancer that had the monkey of the same type as your first Pokémon. Blow 15:31, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
: Answer to the monkey question: No, you have to battle the Dancer with Yanappu first, it's not dependant on the Starter. I battled him first and my starter was Mijumaru. --[[User:Shining Latios|Shining Latios]] 18:00, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

==Evolution Stone==

Didn't feel like making the addition of this to Stat Increasing Held Items, as I honestly don't have the knowledge of every Pre-Evolution pokemon that this takes effect for.

You get it from the scientist as I stated in the article (In the building with Name Rater) when you have Seen 25+ (or so) Pokemon.

Item Info:

Evolution Stone

A piece of evolutions wonder. If held, a pre-evolved Pokemon's Defense and Sp. Defense will be boosted.

By pre-evolved it seems to mean Pokemon like Pichu, etc that are baby forms of other Pokemon as far as I can figure. I know it didn't change the listed stats for Otamaro when I equipped it with it, or for any of my other Pokemon.{{unsigned|Bugmenot}}
:The stat change due to a held item is never visible on the stats page. I assume it means Pokémon which have at least another evolution stage remaining. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:16, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

:::{{tt|ただし　こうかを　はっきするのは　しんかする　ポケモンの　しんかまえの　じょうたい　だけという|It's said that its effects are activated only on Pokémon that can evolve and that are in a before-evolving condition}}.

'''Castellia city''' is the largest city in the pokemon world, with high skyscrapers and a population of 130 plus 4 per second regenarating in streets where they walk along the sidewalk. Why then, is it "one of the largest", do they not count?

::Stop fighting over this because it is totally pointless. Han Ji-Wan, Castelia is the largest city in the Pokémon world by far. Raimon is smaller but has a bigger population, there is a difference.

:::Where did you get the idea that Castelia City is the largest city? Where's your proof? Yes, while Castelia looks bigger, grander, and has large skyscrapers, it does not mean it's the largest. For example, Singapore is a dense island city with a lot of tall skyscrapers, while London is more spread out, not as much notable skyscrapers and a larger population.

:::::::That's only partially correct though. Size-wise it is bigger and most people would probably judge a city by size, not population. What's wrong with including them both? --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 04:02, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
::::::::It's pretty much impossible to find out what's the largest city in terms of land area. There's the game and the map art and more. The map is in no way, an accurate portrayal of the size of cities because it doesn't show all the details. So yeah, I guess you could do land area for each towns by counting the spaces. Vertically and horizontally and then multiply it to get the total land area.--[[User:Han Ji-Wan|Han Ji-Wan]] 06:07, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
:::::::::If we can't come to an agreement, why don't we just say it's the second-largest city by population, excluding the people running in the streets? I mean, that makes perfect sense to me. We could say something like, "Taking into account people running on the streets, Castelia is the largest city in the Pokémon world, having an infinite population. However, when these people are excluded and only those who are stationary are counted, Nimbasa's population exceeds Castelia's by 20 people." [[User:Igglybuff63|Igglybuff63]] 21:23, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
::::::::"The map is in no way, an accurate portrayal of the size of cities because it doesn't show all the details." Bullshit. The map is more than accurate enough to show which city is bigger. Both the in-game map and the official artwork depict Castelia as being at least six times bigger than Nimbasa. You think that making the map more detailed would result in Castelia shrinking to the point of it being smaller than Nimbasa? Puh-leeze. - [[User:Ericss|Ericss]] 15:43, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
:::::::::Please watch your language. This is a children's site, you know?
The two maps (in-game and official art map) are still not accurate because they don't show enough details and the correct size. [[User:Han Ji-Wan|Han Ji-Wan]] 19:12, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
You do realize that you're not supposed reply to a few months old discussion and try to argue someone's point which had already been resolved?

== Lots of english names for places of interest ==

The Piggyback Pkmn B/W gameguide has english names for all the castelia places of interest. I don't know if guides are a reliable source for, especially, english names and if they are names coined by Piggyback. But is anyone interested in knowing the names? And should the names be used instead of the names that are now used on the wiki? Tell me and I'll place them here :) [[User:Alexjuuhh|Alexjuuhh]] 17:19, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
:Post them. Post all you've got. We'll be able to check its authenticity soon. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 17:20, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
::well, okay then :D I'll only post the ones that are different from the names on the wiki.
::Atelier Castelia = Studio Castelia
::Castelia Ice = Casteliacone
::Café = Café Sonata
::Passerby Survey Squad Headquarters = Passerby Analytics HQ
::Central Area = Castelia Central Area
::The Dock = Cruise Ship Dock
::Also, there's the Name-Rating Services, Pokémon Massage.
::And all the English names for the trainers you can battle in Castelia:
::Clerk ♀ Ingrid, Clerk ♀ Alberta, Scientist Randall, Clerk ♂ Clemens, Clerk ♂ Warren, Scientist Samantha, Scientist Steve, Clerk ♂ Ivan, Clerk ♂ Wade, Janitor Geoff, Dancer Mickey, Dancer Edmond, Dancer Raymond, Harlequin Kerry, Harlequin Jack, Harlequin Louis, Harlequin Rick.
::That's all I could find for now. If I find anything else before the release (4/6 march), I'll post it. (oh and yes, Piggyback listed clowns as Harlequins.) {{unsigned|Alexjuuh}}

:I think there's no reason to think that those aren't real. Casteliacone is (Serebii)-confirmed. Also, Harlequin instead of Clown might not be an error, since those are two different classes in Japanese (Pierrot and Clown), so the English versions could've reflected this difference too. What I don't like is that Bussinessmen and OLs are both called "Clerk" but I guess that NoA is the one to be blamed. Also, those guides are generally reliable but they DO have errors here and there. Also, sign your comments. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 17:56, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
::yeah, guess you're right. And I forgot to sign that comment.. :') sorry. [[User:Alexjuuhh|Alexjuuhh]] 18:29, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

==Castelia City's slogan==
I edited the page with the slogan, which I obtained from this video. [http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/23718/news/pokmon-black-white-gameplay-video-shows-castelia-city/] --[[User:SpeedSuicune|SpeedSuicune]] 21:21, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

== Unnamed street... ==

Is it OK to call that street above the Central Plaza North Street? I mean, it makes sense and there;s no other name for it...[[User:Green Zubat|Green Zubat]] 02:24, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
:I think it's best to keep it as "unnamed" rather than make up one. [[User:Han Ji-Wan|Han Ji-Wan]] 05:52, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

== Shape ==

Its a hand holding a pokeball. heh. [[User:PowerPlantRaichu|PowerPlantRaichu]] 17:42, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
:It's certainly a hand, but I don't think it is holding a Poké Ball. The fingers are out, which they wouldn't be if they were clenched around a Poké Ball. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 10:17, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

== Mr. Lock ==

In one of the northern buildings (the same one with the Relocator, the same floor even) there is a clown named Mr. Lock, who says that he can open anything. Then he says that he'll see you in the future. He is part of some event? [[User:Teller of Legends|Teller of Legends]] 15:30, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
: You need to speak with open to open up the event item Lock Capsule when you receive one through an event if I remember correctly. [[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen Fennec]] 15:33, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
:: That is correct, however I don't think the Lock Capsule was ever released, making him kinda useless (unless he is used in story in Black/White). --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] 14:22, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

== A couple of notes... ==

Although, very likely, what I am saying lacks importance, I am going to say it regardless. Since I myself can't do it, and as far as I can tell there's no other record of it, does anyone believe it should be mentioned exactly what occurs in the Zorua event besides they general statement of "it requires an event Celebi" as I honestly have no clue as to how that event takes place and I can't seem to find the information. It wouldn't need to be much, it could be simple "The event takes place by speaking to [blank] at/in [blank] with an event Celebi in the party, if the event is really that simple. On another note, if the picture of a Zorua from a book somehow records Zorua's picture and cry to the pokedex, why doesn't the hiker's pikachu do the same, especially considering its a living pokemon and not a PICTURE. I'm not asking for an actual explanation as I am well aware no one here actually helped design these games, but it seems something worth noting in the trivia... --'''[[Special:Contributions/Zordon123456789mlw7|Azurill]][[User talk:Zordon123456789mlw7|glow2]][[User:Zordon123456789mlw7|mlw7]]''' 04:09, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
:Added event info. As for why Zorua's picture adds the dex entry but a physical Pikachu doesn't, it's so you can see a Zorua without needing an event; likewise, in Diamond and Pearl you can register Dialga/Palkia's seen entries via picture, and Manaphy's in Platinum. Pikachu doesn't need to be registered this way, so it is not. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 15:15, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

== Casteliacone in B2W2? ==

This might possibly be worth a mention, but I'm not sure if it's an actual event triggered by player actions or something that happens regardless, but after often buying Casteliacones for cheap status recovery items, after I beat the elite 4 there was suddenly a line outside the stand where there'd been none previously. The NPC shopkeeper claimed that a rumor had been going around that the new champion loved Casteliacones, thus the sudden popularity. Of course, having only played through the game once, I've no way of confirming that this only happened because I bought a few cones there or if it happens regardless, but in case someone has more info I thought I'd throw that out there. --[[User:ACDragonMaster|ACDragonMaster]] ([[User talk:ACDragonMaster|talk]]) 03:08, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

'''Pokémon Conquest''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン{{tt|＋|プラス}}ノブナガの{{tt|野望|やぼう}}''' ''Pokémon + Nobunaga's Ambition'') is a [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off]] {{wp|Fictional crossovers in video games|crossover}} between the [[Pokémon]] and {{wp|Nobunaga's Ambition}} series of games, a first for the franchise. It was released in Japan on March 17, 2012 and in North America on June 18, 2012.

Following a series of news regarding surprising announcements from both {{n|TPC hints at Jump Festa reveal|Jump Festa 2011}} and the {{n|Japanese distribution to be held to celebrate next year's zodiac|first issue of CoroCoro magazine in 2012}}, the game was revealed on December 17, 2011, at the Jump Festa event itself, with the official site launching soon after.

The game takes place in the [[Ransei]] region. Various Pokémon from all five generations appear in this game. The game is [[Nintendo DSi]] enhanced.

==Gameplay==
Pokémon Conquest features a turn-based strategy battle system. Up to six {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} on each side are positioned on the battlefield, one for each participating [[Warrior]], and both sides take turns moving and attacking with their Pokémon. A battle is won or lost when the side taking over the kingdom achieves or fails to achieve the victory conditions for the match within a set number of turns; some victory conditions include defeating all the opponent's Pokémon, and capturing all the banners on the field. When a battle is won, all participating Pokémon gain points to their [[Link]] with their respective Warrior. When a battle is won against an enemy [[kingdom]]'s castle, the player conquers that map. The player can recruit more Warriors by satisfying certain conditions, and thus more potential Pokémon to choose from for battle, throughout the game, often through defeating them in battle. Players may also be joined by [[Warlord]]s. The player may also save their progress at any point in time during single-player, even during a battle. There is also a multiplayer wireless mode in which two players may battle each other.

Pokémon in the game can grow in strength by increasing their Link with their Warrior. Depending on how well matched a pair is, the maximum level of the Link between the two varies, with most Warriors only able to achieve a 100% or Perfect Link with a single species of Pokémon. Aside from growing more powerful, Pokémon may evolve when their Link reaches a high enough percentage, though there are also Pokémon which evolve through other conditions such as the use of specific items. Warriors can also establish links with Pokémon other than the one they started with, though only one can be used by each Warrior in a given battle at a time. Certain Warriors will have a more difficult time finding their best Link than others, as some Pokémon only appear during a [[Pokémon outbreak|Swarm]]. However, through the use of a password these Pokémon can be Linked with much easier.

The game makes use of the seventeen Pokémon [[type]]s and their respective weaknesses, resistances, and immunities. Pokémon also have various [[Ability|Abilities]], many the same as in the main series games, as well as some unique new additions. Warriors also have [[Warrior Skill]]s that can be used once per battle, which have various effects such as powering up or healing Pokémon. Warrior can also equip items, which can provide additional effects such as stat boosts or can be used during battle.

Warriors can only take one action per month, with the exception of battles in which an opposing kingdom challenges the player. This means a Warrior who is picked to buy from shops or merchants cannot be chosen to battle or mine for gold afterwards, as they have used up their action for the month, and the same is said for any other executed action, including [[Ponigiri]] shops and challenges to neighboring kingdoms. In the case of purchasing from shops, the action is only taken if the player actually buys something and is not used up for simply browsing.

Players can choose to [[delegate]] by picking one of three options: Train (increase Link), Search (recruit more allies), or Develop (increase gold and spend on leveling locations up). Various facilities are also available per kingdom, such as shops, in which the player can buy items to use on Pokémon. Traveling merchants may also visit on occasion. These shops have higher prices but offer evolution items as well as high quality supplies. There are also Ponigiri shops. Feeding a Pokémon these will increase its energy, which affects its performance in battle. Sometimes extra Ponigiri will be offered. If the Pokémon eats too much of it, its energy will decrease. If the Pokémon doesn't eat too much, the energy level will be maximized.

When the player does not use a recruited Warrior in a kingdom for a certain number of months, the Warrior will become dissatisfied and an angry face will appear on their profile page. Once they are used in the kingdom, the angry face disappears during the next month. If the recruited warrior isn't used for two months after the angry face appears, the warrior will leave the army.

Random events will also occur at predetermined times. Some events may occur depending on the player's current funds or an item in the inventory. Sometimes bandits will steal an item or someone's Pokémon; this gives the player an optional fight. [[Weather conditions|Weather]] is another occurrence that may raise the energy of Pokémon depending on their type; for example, a heat wave raises the energy of {{type|Fire}} Pokémon.

==Plot==
{{Spoilers}}
Legend has it that the one who will be able to conquer all seventeen kingdoms of Ransei will bring the return of the region's creator. Players begin in the story known as ''The Legend of Ransei''.

The player starts off in the Nation of [[Aurora]] with their partner {{p|Eevee}}, having just become the most recent [[Warlord]]. They then meet up with [[Mitsunari]], [[Kiyomasa]], and [[Masanori]], who taunt the player, stating that they aren't ready to be a Warlord. At this point, two warriors from the neighboring nation of [[Ignis]] quickly challenge the player to battle. [[Oichi]] joins in the battle to support the player.

After defeating the duo, Oichi relays the details of the legend of Ransei, and sets the player off on a quest to unite the 17 nations. The player first challenges [[Hideyoshi]]'s nation of Ignis, then moves on to battle [[Motonari]] in [[Greenleaf]] and [[Motochika]] in [[Fontaine]]. Along the way, the player learns how to recruit other Warlords and link with [[wild Pokémon]].

From there, the player is able to conquer [[Violight]], led by [[Ginchiyo]]; [[Chrysalia]], led by [[Yoshimoto]]; and [[Pugilis]], led by [[Yoshihiro]]. At this point, the nations of [[Terrera]] and [[Illusio]], led by [[Kenshin]] and [[Shingen]] respectively, become available for conquering. However, when the player goes to challenge one of them, they will not accept the challenge, stating that the player is not yet ready to face them, and turn the player's forces back. At this point, whichever nation the player went to will send forces back to the nation in which the player resides (either Pugilis or Chrysalia), and the player must defend their nation from the attack.

Upon a successful defense, the player will undergo a warrior transformation, allowing them to successfully challenge the nation. After defeating either Kenshin or Shingen's forces, both will join the player on their quest to unite the nations. At this point, [[Nobunaga]] himself appears before the player, stating his own aims to conquer Ransei (and in doing so, debates with Oichi, who is revealed to be his sister, about his goals).

Following this, the player can then conquer the nations of [[Cragspur]], led by [[Ujiyasu]]; [[Avia]], led by [[Masamune]]; [[Viperia]], led by [[Nene]]; and [[Yaksha]], led by [[Kotarō]]. Upon defeating one of these nations, [[Keiji]] will appear and give the player three evolutionary stones—the {{evostone|Fire Stone}}, {{evostone|Water Stone}} and {{evostone|Thunderstone}}—which will allow the player to evolve their {{p|Eevee}} into {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Jolteon}} or {{p|Flareon}} if they so choose.

After defeating the rest of the area's warlords, the three nations of Nobunaga's highest aides will appear: [[Spectra]], led by [[Nō]]; [[Valora]], led by [[Ieyasu]]; and [[Nixtorm]], led by [[Mitsuhide]]. Upon defeat of these three, the final nation, [[Dragnor]], appears, and the player is able to battle Nobunaga himself.

Upon conquering the final nation, a cutscene will play in which several pillars of light shoot out from across the nation and converge on a tower in Dragnor. When the player enters the tower, they find the legendary Pokémon {{p|Arceus}} awaiting them. Arceus tells the player to Link with it, and the battle begins. When the player successfully links with Arceus, Nobunaga appears and reveals that he planned all along for this to happen. He secretly wanted to get Arceus appear so that he could strike it down and prove to the region that the legend was unimportant. Nobunaga, along with Nō, Ieyasu, Mitsuhide, Hideyoshi, and [[Ranmaru]], then challenge the player's party to the final battle.
Upon defeating Nobunaga, the player brings peace to the land of Ransei, allowing each Warlord leader to rule their respective nations once again. Arceus goes off, telling the player it will appear again when the time is right.

==Characters==
{{main|List of Pokémon Conquest characters}}
In Pokémon Conquest, players take of control of [[Warrior]]s' Pokémon. Each Warrior in the game, excluding the Hero/Heroine, is based on someone from Japanese history, with several notable ones portraying [[Warlord]]s in the game. There are also multiple non-playable characters, such as the Messenger, who occasionally brings players news and is sometimes seen with a Beedrill.

==Stories==
{{main|List of Pokémon Conquest stories}}
After the first story, ''The Legend of Ransei'', eight other stories open up, allowing the player to play through several different stories as different characters. Each episode has a specific goal that must be complete in order to clear it, ranging from uniting the region to defeating a certain number of warlords to collecting a certain number of Pokémon. Notably, the player won't be allowed to replay ''The Legend of Ransei'' despite being able to replay all other stories. Instead, players can only unlock a final story after clearing any 33 stories. This story is a slightly altered version of the first story.

===Downloadable stories and events===
In addition to the above stories, several more may be unlocked via Wi-Fi. Much like missions from [[Ranger Net]], the stories require unlocking. Events are also available through Wi-Fi, and these events can only happen during certain stories.

==Kingdom events==
Certain events can happen in kingdoms that will have an effect on the kingdom or the game.

===Weather===
There can be a rainstorm or a heat wave in a a few kingdoms. When it is raining, storm clouds will appear over affected kingdoms.

===Farmers===
Sometimes a Farmer will show up and ask for money.

===Messenger===
The Messenger will sometimes appear at the start of the month. The messanger will alert the player of an approaching invasion, when there is a rare Pokémon appearing in a kingdom, a traveling merchant has journeyed to one of the player's kingdoms, and professor wishes to give the player information about game mechanics, or a Warrior wants to go on a training trip.

===Attractive kingdom===
In a random one of the player's kingdoms, Warriors from other kingdoms will come to that kingdom.

==Passwords==
Certain Pokémon will appear in one kingdom the month after their password is typed in the Password section. After a password is used, it may not be used again. However, some Pokémon, such as Pikachu, have multiple passwords, which allow for more than one appearance. This is due to passwords occupying one of 64 slots. When a slot is taken up, a password that would use that slot cannot be used.

==Third version==
Before anyone else decides to talk about it, yeah, I'm pretty much gonna guarantee it being the mascot of BW's third version. No further discussion on this. Until we get the announcement and boxart. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 20:28, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
:Unfair. [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_with_unique_type_combinations&action=historysubmit&diff=1189335&oldid=1189330 I already did that].--[[User:Cold|Cold]] ([[User talk:Cold|talk]]) 20:41, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

What will be the name of the third game?
- Pokémon White Version Reshiram
- Pokémon Black Version Zekrom
- Pokémon Grey Version Kyurem

It could be, don't ya think?Sakas 19:11, 7 October 2010 (UTC)SakasFixe
:Didn't TTE just say "no further discussion on this"? That's speculation and belongs on the forums, not here. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] 19:14, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

You are bad for people. You want something related to "discussion" you'll have it: Where is the Official artwork of Ken Sugimori? Happy? {{unsigned|SakasFixe}}
:There is no Sugimori artwork yet for the non-pre-release Pokemon. But that doesn't belong here on Kyurem's talk. [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 22:41, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

==Norse==
"It may also be based on the {{wp|Wyvern}} of {{wp|Norse}} mythology, said to wreck havoc in {{wp|Ragnarök}}, the end of the world, should it melt from the ice it was imprisoned in."

That's what I've been told. Anyone able to confirm/dismiss that? {{unsigned|Yurtablemoron}}
:Nope, not true. - [[User:050294|050294]] 14:32, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

That's basically what Reshiram is (minus the ice) [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 21:51, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

I agree with the norsh myth theory also perhaps it has connections to Fimbulvetr? The harsh winter where men will wage ceaseless war against each other
and brothers will kill each other= the two brothers using Regish and Zec sound plausible? [[User:Frosslass|Frosslass]] 12:47, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

==Overworld Sprite==
I don't think this sentence in the physiology section is necessary: "It should be noted that on its overworld sprite, the left part of its overall bodyparts is somehow broken and smaller than the right part." The smaller part is correct, sure, but it isn't broken--it's just smaller because of the perspective. Same goes for its forward-facing battle sprite. At the very least, "overall bodyparts" should be changed to just "body." [[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]]♫[[User talk:Phantomjunkie|Junkie]] 03:32, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

== Feelings? ==

Out of curiosity, how is Kyurem a "Feelings Pokémon"? I think that 境界 ''kyoukai'' (boundary) would make more sense than 胸懐 ''kyoukai'' (heart/feelings). Though, there's the possibility that "Kyoukai" could be from 鏡 ''kyou'' (mirror) and 灰 ''kai'' (gray/grey/ash/griseous). [[User:神奇超龍|神奇超龍]] 08:34, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

:The in-game description, according to Veekun, is きょうかい . Compare it to Reshiram's はくよう (white yang) and Zekrom's こくいん (black yin), and we may find something. [[User:Eriorguez|Eriorguez]] 06:41, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

== Kyurem Origin ==

As Zekrom and Reshiram are both based on types of energy, is it possible that Kyurem is based on {{wp|Cold Fusion}}? --[[User:Podunk|Podunk]] 07:06, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
:Sigh... Cold Fusion has nothing to do with ice. It's a theoretical variation on a typical fusion reaction which can be done at or near ROOM TEMPERATURE. I removed this origin already, but it keeps getting added. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] 10:52, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Kyurem's page says that it '''is''' an extraterrestrial Pokemon. But it isn't expressly stated that he arrived on that meteor- it's only a legend, same as Clefairy. Neither is there any mention of Kyurem's name in the game when discussing it. Shouldn't it say "'''may be''' an extraterrestrial Pokemon", or something similar? [[User:Soma K.|Soma K.]] 21:22, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

== Kyurem's Tail Resembles..... ==
- Reshiram's Tail resembles a Jet Engine
- Zekrom's Tail resembles an Electric Generator

But we still don't know what Kyurem's tail looks like. Any ideas?[[User:Duo2nd|Duo2nd]] 02:25, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

Looks like a glacure.[[User:WWWAJG|WWWAJG]] 22:09, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

== Pokemon.jp Pokedex pic ==

I'm thinking it would be a good replacement for the current infobox picture, which not only is tiny, but comes up all pixellated in its file description area. I can't extract from a Flash-based site or upload here, but I know there's people who can. [[User:Silverlucario|Frezgle]] 19:21, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

== National PokeDex ==

Other than the event legendarie, Kyurem (And Landorus), according the the guide books, are NOT required to complete the National PokeDex. Why it is like this is what I d0on't lnow, since Kyurem can be caught in any copy of B/W, and Landorus not being required is also unusual because Tornadus and Thundurus are, which both ultimately unlock Landorus anyways. Would it be worth trivia for both of them? [[User:Shiramu Kuromu|Shiramu Kuromu]] 14:50, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

== shiny sprite ==

Kyurem is grey and it's shiny sprite is -black and white- with the eye color being a combined version of Zekrom's red eyes and Reshiram's blue eyes, notable? [[User:Nickvang|Nickvang]] 19:11, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
: I don't think, but wait for more opinions --[[User:SamuStar|SamuStar]] 21:05, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Oha Suta has revealed a teaser trailer for a movie, it appears that Kyurem and the Musketeer Quartet will be in it.

== Ideals, truth and dreams. ==

Drayden told me the third one (dreams) is also in this row (so it would be Kyurem's one). Adding? [[User:Nickvang|Nickvang]] 16:24, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
:Still speculation at the moment. Better to leave it out until is is officially associated with dreams. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 16:40, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

== Imprison Level ==

Do you consider it noteworthy that the levels at which Kyurem (and by extension Reshiram and Zekrom) attempt(s) to learn Imprison are 8 and 64? 8² = 64 and so the root of 64 is eight. Since the games draw some inspiration from mathematics, as seen in N, N's Themes and the boats in Castelia City this might be programmed in intentionally.

[[User:Renoir|Renoir]] 23:19, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

== New Forms ==

Looks like Kyurem gets two new forms: [[Image:M15_poster.png|thumb]] [[User:1rkhachatryan|RBK]] 23:21, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

== Trivia ==
"There is placeholder data for an alternate form of Kyurem in Pokémon Black and White. There was the same type of placeholder data for Rotom, Giratina, and Shaymin in Diamond and Pearl." - Could an admin expand on this now, explaining how its two new forms have been revealed? ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 09:52, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

I also think it would be worth noting that Kyurem is the first Pokemon to be the version mascot of two games in the same generation.[[User:ArchedThunder|ArchedThunder]] 12:46, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
:Oh and of course editing the top of the page to say he is the version mascot of both Black 2 and White 2.[[User:ArchedThunder|ArchedThunder]] 13:03, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
::Until new info comes out I don't think that either of those are going to be added for now. [[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen Fennec]] 17:05, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

== Art Descriptions ==

For Kyurem's alternate formes, why does it say "Art by Ken Sugimori from Black 2", etc.? For every other released Pokémon, it says something like "Art by Ken Sugimori from Ruby ''and Sapphire''", even for a version exclusive like Groudon. [[Special:Contributions/Enervation|~]][[User:Enervation|Enervation]] 21:30, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
:Mostly because I was confused by the switch. D: There would be three image switches, and two different captions. I didn't want it to end up with BW art and saying "Art from Black and White 2", and I also didn't want to be redundant and have Black White 2 be listed twice. But I have nothing against someone using both titles for the artworks.

==Placeholder==
In the trivia, what do you mean by "placeholder data for alternative formes"? [[User:RedYoshi|RedYoshi]] 22:15, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

Kyurem had no alternate forms in BW, when a pokemon has no alternate forms they are given a value of Zero in that "section", Kyurem had a Value of one implying that we would see more forms.[[User:ArchedThunder|ArchedThunder]] 22:46, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

== Wendigo? ==

I recently say a picture of a monster called "Wendigo," a winter spirit of starvation and cannibalism. It also looks like White Kyurem. Could White Kyurem be based off it? the winter part reflects Kyurem's ice type, the starvation part could be why White Kyurem is so skinny, and the cannibalism could be why Kyurem is said to eat other Pokemon and people. Here is a picture of a Wendigo, from myexistenz.com [http://www.myexistenz.com/x/article15/article1/Wendigo.jpg] [[User:Khimerami|Khimerami]] 18:25, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
:I don't think it's related to the Wendigo. The Wendigo is basically a monster from Indian legends (or so I have heard). It has differing descriptions, and I've seen a lot of other pictures depicting something different. [[User:Pringles|Pringles]] 19:27, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
:: No, Wendingo isn't related to the Indian legends. {{tt|*|I'm a "Hindu" :( }} [[User:Poke.geek|'''P''']][[User talk:Poke.geek|'''okége''']][[Special:Contributions/Poke.geek|'''ek''']] 19:40, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
::: Sorry, that's what I thought. Or so I heard. [[User:Pringles|Pringles]] 02:57, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
:::: Legendary Pokémon are based on all sorts of myths from various cultures, why should that matter? Anyway, wikipedia mentions that the Wendigo mainly possessed or transformed humans, and especially prefers cannibals. It doesn't really mention the Wendigo itself carrying off humans away to eat, which is more or less what Kyurem did. So I'm not sure if there is that much relevance. [[User:Rai Marshall|Rai Marshall]] 03:04, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
:::: The Wendigo comes from North American Native legends --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 20:20, 16 September 2012 (UTC)

== Hmmm? ==

Are those ropes connecting Black/White Kyurem's generator thing to its back? Or is that energy? It's seen on the box art for Black and White 2. [[User:Pringles|Pringles]] 22:37, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
:The spikes on its shoulders extend and go into the "plugs" on its tail. [[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon (Pokémon)|★]] [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]][[Cilan (anime)|♥]] 22:39, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

== Different cries? ==

If you watch the third video here: http://www.filb.de/1772 when Black Kyurem is sent out, it's using Zekrom's cry, rather than Kyurem's. [[User:Dilophosaurus Rex|Dilophosaurus Rex]] 09:25, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
:Definitely a different cry, but not Zekrom's '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 17:10, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

== White Kyurem forme change method revealed through M15 trailer? ==
[http://www.pokemon-movie.jp/swf/player/trailer120413_yokoku2.html This trailer from the official Pokémon movie website] shows Kyurem using an attack involving fire, which is speculated to be [[Ice Burn]]. After use, an orange ball of energy appears within its tail, it flies upward and becomes surrounded in an orange stream of energy and emerges as White Kyurem. Since it is from an official source (however, not directly linked to the games)i think it is worth mentioning.
[[User:Renoir|Renoir]] 17:05, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
:Since we don't know if it is Ice Burn and what caused it, it is best to leave it for now. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:47, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

== White Kyurem's Picture ==

Should we really use White Kyurem's picture for the entirety of the page? I mean... regular Kyurem seems more neutral. [[User:DevaGolgotha|DevaGolgotha]] 22:24, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
:Read the top of the talk page please. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 22:25, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

== warning at top of page ==

the warning says the change only effects the artwork, however when under White Kyurem the high changes from 3.3 meters to 3.6. You might want to change that to avoid confusion. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] 02:30, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

== Origin section ==

"Given that its Japanese name contains mu, it may be based on the koan mu." From the transliteration in the infobox at the top, the Japanese name doesn't seem to have "mu" in it. [[Special:Contributions/Enervation|~]][[User:Enervation|Enervation]] 20:19, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
:It actually does have "mu" in it. While Kyurem is the official romanization of Kyurem's Japanese name, it's actually written as "Kyuremu" in Japanese. --[[User:Funktastic~!|It's Funktastic~!]] 21:38, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

== You guys have the wrong palette for Kyurem's party sprite ==

I'm assuming you guys used the Veekun rip. That rip uses an incorrect palette ID. Notice how the thing on Kyurem's head that's supposed to be yellow is purple on Veekun's icon rip. I checked my game, it uses a different palette than Veekun's incorrect rip, and the thing is yellow, unlike the bad rip where its purple. Here's a more accurate rip:

[[User:Chaos Rush|Chaos Rush]] ([[User talk:Chaos Rush|talk]]) 13:38, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

==Description==

It says "its tail appears to be some sort of propulsion device; exactly what it is based on is unclear, though it may be a damaged turbine". It looks like a plug, likely as a reference that Kyurem absorbs energy instead of generating it (unlike Reshiram and Zekrom) to get more power (the new formes). [[User:Metalizard|Metalizard]] ([[User talk:Metalizard|talk]]) 04:17, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
:That is likely. Heat is a form of energy, so cold is the absence of that energy. Pardon if I sound rude, but this is discussed in the article, in the Origin section under Trivia. It does not give the exact information you pointed out, however. [[User:Kyro-Dizzy|Kyro-Dizzy]] ([[User talk:Kyro-Dizzy|talk]]) 09:04, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

== Formes have second highest base stat totals and second highest attack/special attack ==

Is it worth noting this, considering that it's apparently only two thirds of the full Pokemon? Or is it something that isn't worth noting at all? --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 20:18, 16 September 2012 (UTC)

== Hourly changes in article also changing the movesets? ==

I noticed that as of this moment, with the article displaying White Kyurem, it's only showing the moveset for it, with no means to view the movesets for Black or regular Kyurem. I understand the point behind the alternating images to show off the different forms, but this is getting to the point where it makes the article ''less'' informative by making it impossible to look up complete information on the pokemon without checking back at three different times. I'm not even remotely familiar with how all the coding for this works, but isn't there a way that it could be set up so that all the moveset information would still be accessible via link or such for the alternate forms regardless of which one is displayed? Because speaking as a casual user who likes to be able to quickly look up information from time to time, this is frankly obnoxious. It's not just an aesthetic change- which would be fine- but actually making it impossible to view a thorough and accurate article at one time. --[[User:ACDragonMaster|ACDragonMaster]] ([[User talk:ACDragonMaster|talk]]) 01:47, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

What's this about the audio muting? I just watched the episode just now off my DVR, and the audio was just fine through the whole thing. Maybe whoever posted that just had a bad cable connection. [[User:Morgil27|Morgil27]] 03:09, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

== Zorua's voice missing? ==

I noticed when watching the dub of this episode online through pokemon.com that Zorua's voice was absent- the animation showed her laughing or otherwise responding to the characters in a way that normally would have ''some'' sound, but never once did her voice appear. Is this just unique to the streaming version or is it present in all forms of the dub? (I noticed there was previous discussion about "muting" in the dub, but as the descriptions were vague I don't know if it was referencing the same thing or not...) --[[User:ACDragonMaster|ACDragonMaster]] ([[User talk:ACDragonMaster|talk]]) 01:23, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

==Trivia==
* A mistake in the song left out the {{type|Poison}} from the list of types. Instead, the nonexistent "Flame" type was included.
** This mistake was not corrected in translations of the song. In the French version, the "Flame" type replaces the Flying-type, and in the German version, neither the Poison-type nor the "Flame" type are mentioned - presumably to simplify the synchronization of music and lyrics.
*** It should be noted that the Fire type's Japanese name is the Flame type.
* Although the lyrics sung are "R U ready 2 meet and defeat... The Elite?", the official lyrics have "Elite Four", instead of "Elite" by itself.
** In the Danish and Norwegian versions, the song is more not mentioning "The Elite", but instead they sang about fighting the leader of Team Rocket.

==Trivia==
* Whimsicott represents {{wp|April}} in the [[Unova]] [[horoscope]].
* Whimsicott, along with {{p|Volcarona}}, are the only non-Flying-type Pokémon able to learn {{m|Hurricane}}.

===Origin===
Whimsicott appears to be based on a fully bloomed ball of {{wp|cotton}}. It also may draw some origin from the {{wp|Vegetable Lamb of Tartary}}, which was a type of sheep-growing plant that was used to explain the production of cotton in the middle ages. It may also have been based on the Brazilian folklore creature known as the {{wp|Saci (Brazilian folklore)|Saci}}; both are brown creatures that live in forests, ride on winds, and play pranks. They also appear to be based on a {{wp|sheep}}.

====Name origin====
Whimsicott may be a combination of ''whimsical'' or ''whimsy'' and ''cotton''.

Elfuun may be a combination of ''elf'' and ふわふわ ''fuwa fuwa'' (''soft'', ''airy'' and ''light''), ''float'', or ''typhoon''.

'''Cottonee''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''モンメン''' ''Monmen'') is a {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Whimsicott}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Sun Stone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Cottonee is a white, circular Pokémon, with white, puffy sections on the top of its head and its underside. Behind it is a green, star shaped section similar to the area where a plant connects to its produce. It has orange, oval-shaped eyes, and furled, notched leaves on the sides of its body.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
When attacked it releases cotton to confuse the enemy and escape. Its cotton can be used as a {{m|Cotton Spore|defensive mechanism}} {{m|Cotton Guard|that aids its self defense}}.

===Behavior===
Cottonee travel on wind in groups [[BW029|during times of mating]]. Cottonee are usually very friendly and are often seen helping each other out.

===Habitat===
Cottonee is blown around by the wind because of its lightweight composition. The only circumstance in which it cannot be blown by wind is when it has been soaked by rain, which weighs it down and makes it soggy. Afterwards, this Pokémon will stay under a tree until it dries, so that it may be blown by the wind again.

===Diet===

===Minor appearances===
A Cottonee used by [[Antonio]] is seen in ''[[BW041|The Club Battle Hearts of Fury: Emolga Versus Sawk!]]'' being knocked out by [[Dino]]'s {{p|Tranquill}}.

Part 1]]'', ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', ''[[BW067|Cilan Takes Flight!]]'', and ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]''.

==Trivia==
* Cottonee and {{p|Whimsicott|its evolution}} are the only Pokémon that can have the {{a|Infiltrator}} Ability without it being their Hidden Ability.

===Origin===
Cottonee is based on a ball of {{wp|cotton}}, though the way it lets the wind move it is similar to {{wp|dandelion}} seeds and {{wp|clouds}}. Cottonee also has the appearance of a sheep head.

====Name origin====
Cottonee may be a corruption of ''cottony'' or ''cottonweed'' or a combination of ''cotton'' and ''wee'' (small).

Monmen is a corruption of 木綿 ''momen'' (cotton).

'''Ampharos''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''デンリュウ''' ''Denryu'') is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Flaaffy}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is the final form of {{p|Mareep}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Ampharos appear vastly different to its pre-evolutions, but it retains many of their features. For example, it remains {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a bipedal, tailed form|bipedal}} like {{p|Flaaffy}}. It also retains the orb on the end of its tail, and the conical ears shared by both its pre-evolutions. The wool it had is now entirely gone, and its body is now mostly yellow in coloration with a white belly. It has black stripes on its neck, ears, and tail. The orb on its tail is now red, and it has gained another smaller orb on its forehead. Its stubby arms resemble flippers.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Ampharos gives off so much light that it can be seen even from space. People once used the light of this Pokémon as a beacon, or to send signals across the ocean.

===Behavior===
Ampharos is a gentle Pokémon that spends most of its time grazing in flocks of other Ampharos and its pre-evolutions, Mareep and Flaaffy. Because its tail glows brightly, in times of emergency it uses its tail as a beacon in the place of a lighthouse.

===Habitat===
[[File:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
Ampharos can be generally found in grasslands along with their pre-evolutions, but are an uncommon sight.

==Trivia==
* Ampharos shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Lanturn}}. They are both known as Light Pokémon.
* Along with its evolutionary relatives, Ampharos is the only {{t|Electric}} type that can learn {{m|Power Gem}}.
* Ampharos is still able to learn {{m|Cotton Spore}} and {{m|Cotton Guard}} by leveling up though it is based on a shorn sheep.

===Origin===
Ampharos resembles a sheared {{wp|sheep}} that its evolution line leads up to as they lose wool with each evolution. It also shares traits with a {{wp|lighthouse}}, such as its height, stripes and the beacon on the top; the two also share a name. It, as well as its pre-evolutions, may have been based on the title of the science fiction novel ''{{wp|Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?}}''.

====Name origin====
Ampharos is a combination of ''ampere'' or ''{{wp|amp}}'' (a measure of electrical current) and ''pharos'' (Greek for ''lighthouse'').

Denryu can be taken to mean 電流 ''denryū'' (electric current) or 電竜 ''denryū'' (electric dragon), and it may incorporate 電球 ''denkyū'' (light bulb), referring to its tail.

'''Flaaffy''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''モココ''' ''Mokoko'') is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Mareep}} starting at [[level]] 15 and evolves into {{p|Ampharos}} starting at level 30.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Flaaffy looks much like its {{p|Mareep|pre-evolution}}, except it is now able to {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a bipedal, tailed form|walk on its hind legs}} and its feet appear to have gained a single clawed toe. Its skin is now almost entirely pink and most of the wool appears to have vanished, so it now resembles a partially shaven pink-skinned lamb or sheep. The remains of its wool are now white and are situated on its head and around its collar. It has small stubby arms and it has a black and pink striped pattern on its horns and tail, and the sphere on the end of its tail is now blue.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Flaaffy's wool is similar to Mareep's in that it stores electricity. However, Flaaffy's wool is much more efficient, so that it can store more electricity than Mareep despite having less wool on its body. They also have rubbery skin to prevent themselves from being electrocuted. Unlike Mareep, Flaaffy are able to stand on their hind legs and are able to use their forelimbs to manipulate things or deliver blows.

===Behavior===
These Pokémon are usually mild-mannered and gentle.

===Habitat===
[[File:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
One is most likely to find Flaaffy in grassy meadows and fields.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
They are most likely herbivores.

* As of [[Generation V]], Flaaffy is the only pink {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Flaaffy is based on a {{wp|sheep}} that has had some of its wool sheared off. Its electrical aspect and Ability come from how wool builds up static charges. It, its {{p|Ampharos|evolution}}, and its {{p|Mareep|pre-evolution}}, may also have been based on the title of the science fiction novel ''{{wp|Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?}}''.

====Name origin====
Flaaffy may be a combination of ''fluffy'' and ''baa'' (sound a {{wp|sheep}} makes). It may also incorporate ''laugh'', considering its playful nature. ''Aa'' may also be a reference to a ''double-A battery'', given Flaaffy's typing. Alternately, it my be a combination of ''fluffy'' and ''taffy'' (an informal nickname for Welsh people, who are often stereotypically associated with sheep).

Mokoko may derive from 羊毛 ''yōmō'' (wool) and a corruption of もこもこ ''mokomoko'' (fluffy).

'''Mareep''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メリープ''' ''Merriep'') is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Flaaffy}} starting at [[level]] 15, which evolves into {{p|Ampharos}} starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mareep is a Pokémon that is based on a sheep. It has cream, messy wool covering its entire body, as well as curly tuft of wool in the middle of its head. Its head is blue, and it has black eyes with white pupils. Its {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a quadruped body|four feet}} are blue and have two digits on each foot, and it appears to be on tiptoe at all times. Its horns, presumed to be its ears, and tail have a yellow and black striped pattern. Mareep has an orange sphere at the end of its tail, which acts like a small light bulb.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Mareep's wool stores electricity, rubbing together and building a static charge, and increases in volume when it builds up with electricity. Touching the wool when the wool is charged will result in a nasty static shock. The bulb at the end of Mareep's tail glows brighter the more electricity it has.

===Behavior===
Mareep tend to avoid battle in the wild and have mild dispositions. Mareep's fleece grows continually. In the summer, the fleece is fully shed, but it grows back in a week. Mareep also stores air in its soft fur, allowing it to stay cool in summer and warm in winter.

Mareep are most often found in grassy fields. Mareep are also kept on farms where their wool is used in high-quality clothing.

==Trivia==
* Though Mareep's primary color is stated to be white, it is mostly yellow and blue, and does not contain any large amount of white color.
** In addition, Mareep's colors changed twice in [[Generation IV]]. In {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, it's a bright yellow-ish color. In {{v2|Platinum}}, Mareep's hue is a mix of orange and yellow. In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the colors become a bit whiter, much brighter than {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.
** Its {{Shiny}} sprites maintain the same coloration throughout [[Generation IV]].

===Origin===
Mareep appears to be simply based on a {{wp|sheep}}. It is likely that its electric aspect and Ability comes from how wool builds up static charges and may also be based on the {{wp|golden fleece}} in Greek and Roman mythology. It, and its evolutions, may also have been based on the title of the science fiction novel ''{{wp|Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep}}''?

====Name origin====
Mareep may be a combination of ''Mary'' (from the nursery rhyme "{{wp|Mary Had a Little Lamb}}") and ''{{wp|sheep}}''. ''Mareep'' is also an anagram of ''{{wp|ampere}}'', a unit of electric current.

Merriep may be a combination of ''merry'', メー ''mē'' (the sound made by sheep), or ''Mary'' and ''sheep''.

'''Lilligant''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドレディア''' '' Dredear'') is a {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.

She [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Petilil}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Sun Stone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Lilligant dons a red flower with white spotted petals upon her head; said flower has golden filament with red anther, resembling a crown. She possesses dark green, linear leaves under the flower, and light green, linear leaves underneath the darker leaves. One of the light green leaves, on the back of her head, is about as long as her body and resembles hair. Two light green leaves loosely hang down from her head. Her head and abdomen are white and her eyes are a light shade of red. She has dark green, linear leaves for arms, and a golden {{wp|sepal}} under her neck. She wears a large, light green, {{wp|tulip}} shaped collection of leaves, resembling a dress. There are two long, dark green, linear leaves coming from her back to around the bottom of her "dress". She also possesses another golden, sepal-shaped extension underneath her "dress", resembling feet.

====Gender differences====
Lilligant is a female-only species with no male counterpart.

===Special abilities===
Lilligant has a flower-like crown on her head, which emits a sweet smelling aroma. It is believed to have a relaxing effect when exposed to the scent.

===Behavior===
Lilligant is popular with celebrities. It is very difficult to coax this Pokémon's flower to bloom; however, once it does, if the Lilligant is neglected the flower will wilt.

===Habitat===
Lilligant is a rare Pokémon that lives in the forests of Unova, especially in [[Pinwheel Forest]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==Trivia==

* Lilligant is the only Pokémon that can use {{m|Petal Dance}} without becoming {{status|Confusion|Confused}}, providing she has the {{a|Own Tempo}} [[Ability]], except Smeargle, which can also learn {{m|Petal Dance}} via Sketch and can have Own Tempo.

===Origin===
Though Lilligant's flower is similar in appearance to the {{wp|rafflesia}}, its relaxing smell makes it more likely to be based on either an {{wp|Orange (fruit)|orange}}, {{wp|pomelo}}, {{wp|mandarin orange}}, or {{wp|Dianthus|carnation's flowers}}, all of which are used in {{wp|essential oil}}s for {{wp|aromatherapy}}. Because of this, the leaves of its body may also have been based on other essential oil ingredients, such as {{wp|spearmint}} and/or {{wp|peppermint}}. Her crown and regal attire may be a reference to {{wp|1750–1795 in fashion#Women's fashion|high class or royal women's fashion in the late 1700's}}. She could also be based on a dancer, since she learns only moves with the word Dance in them via level up, excluding moves she knows from the start.

====Name origin====
Lilligant may be a combination of ''lily'' and ''elegant''.

Dredear may be a combination of ''dress'', ''dear'', ''lady'', and ''{{wp|Dianthus}}''.

'''Gigalith''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギガイアス''' ''Gigaiath'') is a {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Boldore}} when [[trade]]d. It is the final form of {{p|Roggenrola}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Gigalith is a mainly blue-colored, quadruped Pokémon, with various spiny, crystal-like red features jutting out of its body. The joints of its limbs are gray-colored, and its limbs are topped with red crystal-like features, with the two claws on each limb being similar features. It now has a red eye inside each ear. Several of the crystalline features are present on Gigalith's face; three being below its eyes, one, in the middle, forming some kind of crest, and the other crystals to the sides of its head.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
It compresses energy in the core inside its body that is enough to blow away mountains. It can also {{m|SolarBeam|store sunlight in its orange crystals and shoot powerful energy from its mouth}}.

===Behavior===

===Habitat===
They live in caves and tunnels deep underground.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Gigalith anime.png|250px|thumb|right|Gigalith in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Gigalith debuted in ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]'', where one was rampaging around a town. [[Alder]] managed to stop it with his bare hands, and found out that the reason for Gigalith's rampage was a nail that had got stuck to the bottom of one of its feet.

===Minor appearances===
A photo of a Gigalith appeared in ''[[BW054|The Four Seasons of Sawsbuck!]]''.

* Boldore is the first Pokémon since [[Generation I]] to evolve via trade with no extra conditions.
* Boldore is the only Pokémon with exactly three legs.

===Origin===
Boldore appears to be based on a {{wp|geode}}. It also has some aspects of a {{wp|crab}}.

====Name origin====
Boldore may be combination of ''boulder'' and ''ore''; it may also be a corruption of ''boulder''. It may also derive from ''bold'' (outstanding or large).

Gantle may be a combination of 岩 ''gan'' (rock) and ''{{wp|mantle (geology)|mantle}}''.

'''Roggenrola''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダンゴロ''' ''Dangoro'') is a {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Boldore}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Gigalith}} when [[trade]]d.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Roggenrola is a Rock-type Pokémon with a rocky, blue-and-brown body. It has a hexagonal, yellow artifice in the center of its body, and a black hexagon within the feature. The feature resembles an eye, but it is actually an ear. Roggenrola have brown, upraised rocky features above their body, and similar brown rocks that seem to comprise their feet. Its body makes metallic sounds when knocked. Because of this, it was once believed to be a {{type|Steel}} Pokémon, before further examinations confirmed it to be a {{t|Rock}} type.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Its body houses an energy core. Due to being compressed underground, its body is harder than iron. As stated by {{an|Cilan}} in ''[[BW035|Where Did You Go, Audino?]]'', Roggenrola have sensitive hearing and can pick up sounds that are inaudible to humans.

===Behavior===

===Habitat===
Roggenrola were discovered in fissures 100 years ago.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Ash Roggenrola.png|thumb|right|250px|Roggenrola in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Roggenrola]]====
Roggenrola first appeared in ''[[BW034|Gotta Catch A Roggenrola!]]'', when it fell into Cilan's food and beat [[Ash's Tepig]] and {{AP|Oshawott}} in battle before being abandoned. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} found it later in a cave where it was captured by Team Rocket. They free it and help it rescue the other Roggenrola. They're all then healed at the Pokémon Center, and the Roggenrola that they met before has a rematch with [[Ash's Tepig]] and is captured by Ash. It later evolved into a Boldore in ''[[BW061|Battling the King of the Mines!]]''.

===In the Be a Master!! Pokémon BW manga===
In [[PBW02]], [[Monta]] uses a Roggenrola against [[Cheren]] in a [[Triple Battle]]. Its {{a|Sturdy}} [[Ability]] allowed it to withstand Monta's {{p|Panpour}}'s {{m|Surf}}, which allowed it to attack with {{m|Rock Slide}}, which took out Cheren's {{p|Pansage}} and {{p|Basculin}}.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A {{tc|Hiker}} named Andy uses a Roggenrola during his Triple Battle with {{Adv|Black}}. However, it was defeated after Andy became dehydrated.

* Roggenrola is similar to {{p|Geodude}}: Both are {{type|Rock}}, have {{a|Sturdy}} as one their Abilities, evolve at level 25 and reach their final forms when [[trade]]d.
* Roggenrola shares its Japanese name with {{zw|Dangoro|a character}} from {{zw|The Legend of Zelda (Series)|The Legend of Zelda}} series.
* Roggenrola has the lowest Special Defense and also the lowest base stat total of all {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Roggenrola is based on a {{wp|geode}}.

====Name origin====
Roggenrola is a corruption of ''{{wp|rock and roll}}''. It may, more specifically, be based on the pronunciation of "''rock-'n'-roller''" (a slang term for musicians who play rock and roll) in certain dialects of American English.

Dangoro may be a combination of 団子 ''dango'' (a Japanese dumpling) and ゴロ ''goro'' ({{wp|Batted ball|grounder}}). It may also derive from ゴロゴロ ''goro goro'' (onomatopoeia for the sound of a boulder rolling).

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Litwick and its {{p|Lampent|evolutionary}} {{p|Chandelure|relatives}}.
* Litwick, along with {{p|Slugma}} and {{p|Torkoal}}, has the lowest {{stat|Speed}} of all {{type|Fire}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Litwick is a combination of {{wp|Hitodama}} (a blue, black, or purple-fire associated with ghosts and youkai, equivalent to the western {{wp|Will-o'-the-wisp}}) and a {{wp|candle}}. It may also be based on the cliche of ghostly floating candles.

====Name origin====
Litwick may to be a combination of ''lit'' (past tense of ''to light'') or ''little'' and ''{{wp|Candle wick|wick}}''. ''Wick'' might also refer to ''wicked''.

Hitomoshi may be derived from 火点し ''hitomoshi'', to light a lamp or is the person who leads a funeral procession in Japan with a torch, matching its Pokédex entry saying it leads people astray and then sucks out their life force. It may also derive from 人燃し ''hitomoshi'' (to burn a man [to death]).

'''Luxray''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レントラー''' ''Rentorar'') is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Luxio}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is the final form of {{p|Shinx}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Luxray's appearance is based on that of a fully-grown lion. It has three gold-colored rings on the backs of its legs, similar to Luxio (which has two) and Shinx (which has one) and has eyes with golden pupils and irises and red {{wp|sclera}}s. Luxray has a blue body partly covered with a spiky black mane from its head to its front legs and parts of its back legs. It has a long, thin black tail with a gold four-pointed star shape on the tip.

====Gender differences====
The female has a shorter {{wp|mane}} than the male.

===Special abilities===
Luxray have extraordinary eyesight. It is so powerful that they can see through most objects and walls, like x-ray vision.

===Behavior===
Luxray are extremely vicious and predatorial, although when tamed and trained correctly they can become very loyal and faithful, protecting their Trainer from danger. They tend to be stubborn and can administer extreme amounts of power through their electricity. Because of their flawless x-ray like vision, practically nothing can go unseen by their eyes. Abusing a Luxray can cause it to become antagonistic and vengeful towards their Trainer. Luxray need a lot of compassion and praise to maintain their satisfaction, as they are proud creatures. While generally independent, Luxray may band together in large groups and look out for one another in the wild.

===Habitat===
It lives in plains and various grassy areas. This may relate to how it is based on a lion.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
In the wild, Shinx, Luxio, and Luxray generally hunt for food.

==In the anime==
[[File:Volkner Luxray.png|thumb|right|250px|Luxray in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Luxray first appeared in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''. During [[Alice]]'s flashback, [[Alicia]] was running up a hill to the garden. She saw Luxray fire a {{m|Hyper Beam}} upon {{OBP|Darkrai|M10}}, but Darkrai retaliated with a {{m|Dark Void}}, trapping Luxray into a nightmare. However, Alice played [[Oración]], allowing it and the other affected Pokémon to sleep peacefully.

[[Marble]] owns a Luxray, appearing in ''[[DP059|Luxray Vision!]]''.

Another Luxray appeared in ''[[DP166|The Fleeing Tower of Sunyshore!]]'' under the ownership of [[Volkner]]. It also appeared in ''[[DP179|The Eighth Wonder of the Sinnoh World!]]'' where it was used in the Gym battle against {{Ash}}.

===Minor appearances===
A Luxray is used by one of the students of [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] in the first leg of the Pokémon Triathlon in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]''.

Another Luxray got a cameo in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', under the ownership of [[Jeffrey]].

A photograph of a Luxray appeared in ''[[BW054|The Four Seasons of Sawsbuck!]]''.

===In the Arceus and the Jewel of Life manga===
In the ''{{ma|Arceus and the Jewel of Life}}'' manga, [[Damos]] owns a Luxray.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Rayhiko}}
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], [[Mars]] used her Luxray to steal energy from [[Valley Windworks]]. In the graphic novel releases, however, {{p|Electivire}} assumes this role.

Later, when the trio are traveling through [[Mt. Coronet]], a Luxray that evolved from a {{p|Luxio}} they had helped earlier in their journey saved {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} after they were trapped by a rock slide. This same Luxray later appeared to Pearl as he was traveling to [[Lake Valor]], and after defeating the {{p|Houndoom}} that was trying to burn them alive, joined him as his third Pokémon, now named Rayhiko.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
[[Hareta]]'s {{p|Luxio}} evolved into Luxray during his {{si|Pokémon League}} battle with [[Koya]].

==In the TCG==

* Luxray is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 523.
* Even though Luxray is renowned for its {{wp|X-ray}} like vision, there is no move or Ability associated with it. It cannot even learn {{m|Foresight}}.
* Luxray is the only {{type|Electric}} Pokémon that can learn {{m|Superpower}}.
* Luxray was the first {{type|Electric}} to ever use {{m|Shock Wave}} in the anime despite countless Pokémon using the move before it.

===Origin===
Luxray is based on an adult male {{wp|lion}}, or possibly the constellation Leo, due to the fact that it resembles a lion and bears a star shape on the end of its tail.

====Name origin====
Luxray is derived from ''{{wp|lux}}'' (a measure of brightness) and ''x-ray'' (referring to its x-ray vision).

Rentorar may be a combination of レンズ ''lens'' or レント ''rento'' (''lent'', {{wp|Catalan language|Catalan}} for ''lens'') and 虎 ''tora'' (tiger).

'''Luxio''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルクシオ''' ''Luxio'') is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Shinx}} starting at [[level]] 15 and evolves into {{p|Luxray}} starting at level 30.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Luxio is sometimes referred to as looking like a young lion. It has a black mane around its face, unlike its pre-evolution, {{p|Shinx}}. It also has two yellow rings around each of its front legs, whereas Shinx only has one around each.

====Gender differences====
The tufts of hair in a male Luxio's mane are longer than those of the female. Similar to Shinx, the portions of blue on a Luxio's hind legs are longer for females.

===Special abilities===
As Electric-type Pokémon, Luxio are capable of using moves such as Charge and Spark.

===Behavior===
Luxio communicate among each other using {{wp|Electroreception|electrical pulses from their claws}}. They live in small groups.

===Habitat===
It lives in plains and various grassy areas and usually in groups. This may relate to how it is based on a lion.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

In the wild, Shinx, Luxio, and Luxray generally hunt for food.

==In the anime==
[[File:Luxio anime.png|200px|thumb|Luxio in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Luxio first appeared in the movie ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''. It was among the Pokémon in the garden. Luxio seemed to be shy, as it hesitated before it ran to Ash and his friends' Pokémon. It participated in the short-lived massive fight.

In ''[[DP109|Leading a Stray!]]'', a Luxio helped a {{p|Wailmer}} that was trapped in the sewers and the {{p|Wailmer}} made it back into the ocean safely and evolved into a {{p|Wailord}}.

===Minor appearances===
It also made a brief cameo at the beginning of ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

Another Luxio appeared in ''[[DP149|Sticking With Who You Know!]]''.

===Pokédex entries===

{{Animedexbody|DP109|Luxio|Ash's Pokédex|Luxio, the Spark Pokémon. By touching friends with its front paws, Luxio is able to communicate through the {{m|Spark|sparks}} it emits.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Diamond & Pearl''|Sinnoh}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Rayhiko Luxio.png|thumb|{{adv|Pearl}}'s {{p|Luxray}}, [[Rayhiko]], in the {{pkmn2|wild}} as a Luxio]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Rayhiko}}
{{adv|Platinum}} was attacked by a wild Luxio; the Luxio had broken its claws and could no longer communicate with its pack. To regain its "touch," it defeated both [[Tru]] and {{adv|Lax|Lax}}, but then decided that it should also fight {{adv|Pearl}}'s Pokémon. Afterwards, Pearl helps it regain its comrades' trust, and it leaves happily.

The same Luxio made a few appearances afterwards as a {{p|Luxray}} before it joined Pearl's team and was dubbed Rayhiko.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
[[Hareta]]'s {{p|Shinx}} evolved into Luxio after defeating [[B-2]] on [[Iron Island]]. Its Trainer attempted to use it against [[Cyrus]]'s {{p|Gyarados}} at [[Lake Valor]], but it was instead ambushed by [[Saturn]]'s {{p|Rhyperior}}, who had been [[revive]]d after being [[Fainting|knocked out]]. Later, it evolved into {{p|Luxray}} during Hareta's {{si|Pokémon League}} battle with [[Koya]].

==In the TCG==

'''Shinx''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コリンク''' ''Kolink'') is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Luxio}} starting at [[level]] 15, which evolves into {{p|Luxray}} starting at level 30.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Shinx is based on a lion cub or kitten. Its fur is mostly blue, yet there is a {{p|Pichu}}-like arrangement of black fur under its neck like a collar. Its forelegs each have a gold ring around them; these are electricity glands, similar to {{p|Pikachu}}'s cheeks. It has large, oval ears with gold star-like symbols in them, similar to the star on its tail or a {{wp|Fleur-de-lis|fleur-de-lis}}. Its tufts of hair will eventually grow into a mane and can be seen on the top and rear sides of its head. Whenever its mouth is shown open, small fangs can be seen developing.

====Gender differences====
A female's mane doesn't stick up as much as a male's. Also, all four paws of a female Shinx are blue while the hind-paws of a male are black.

===Special abilities===

As a defense mechanism, its fur can glow brightly to blind predators so it can escape. As an Electric-type, Shinx can also use moves such as {{m|Charge}} and {{m|Spark}}.

===Behavior===

All of its fur dazzles if danger is sensed. It flees while the foe is momentarily blinded.

===Habitat===

It lives in plains and various grassy areas. This may relate to how it is based on a lion.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
In the wild, Shinx, Luxio, and Luxray generally hunt for food.

==In the anime==
[[File:Angie Shinx.png|thumb|220px|Shinx in the anime]]

Shinx first appeared in ''[[DP010|Not on My Watch Ya Don't!]]'', as [[Landis]]'s Pokémon.

Shinx also appeared in the movie ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''. In the garden, [[Dawn's Piplup]] got into a fight with it over a [[Pecha Berry]]. They eventually began a fight among all the Pokémon. Not too long after, they were calmed down when [[Alice]] started playing [[Oración]]. Shinx decided to split the fruit in half and share the other with Piplup.

A Shinx appears in ''[[SS020|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]]'' asking [[Team Poképals]] to retrieve a {{p|Gabite}} scale to help his sick sister. His sister also makes an appearance at the end of the episode.

[[Angie]] owns a Shinx which appeared along with her in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''. It also appeared in ''[[DP089|Up Close and Personable!]]'', ''[[DP090|Ghoul Daze!]]'', ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]'' and ''[[DP098|If the Scarf Fits, Wear It!]]''.

===Minor appearances===

A Shinx also appeared in a flashback in ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy]]''.

A Shinx also appeared in ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]'' in [[Jessie]]'s fantasy.

A Shinx also made a cameo in ''[[DP124|To Thine Own Pokémon Be True!]]''

A Shinx made a brief cameo in [[SS024]], outside [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab.

A photograph of a Shinx appeared in ''[[BW054|The Four Seasons of Sawsbuck!]]''.

[[File:Hareta Shinx.png|125px|thumb|Shinx in {{pkmn|Diamond and Pearl Adventure!}}]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Platinum}} was attacked by a pack of Shinx and {{p|Luxio}}.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
Shinx was the first Pokémon [[Hareta]] caught with a [[Poké Ball]]. Hareta caught it with the intention of challenging {{OBP|Jun|DPA}} to a {{pkmn|battle}}, but the expected battle was sidetracked by [[Team Galactic]]'s attack on the [[Valley Windworks]]. It evolved after defeating [[B-2]] on [[Iron Island]].

'''Scolipede''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ペンドラー''' ''Pendror'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Whirlipede}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is the final form of {{p|Venipede}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Scolipede is a centipede-like Pokémon, with bright magenta coloration interspersed with purple rings spaced evenly along its segmented upper body. Its horns, extending from its head in a similar way to antennae, are long and slightly twisted. Purple banding decorates its horns, as well as its similarly-shaped dual tails. It has four pairs of purple-tipped forelegs, capable of injecting poison. Its legs further down its body are longer, with curved black patterns and black tipping on the extremities of the limb.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
The claws on its neck can inject powerful poison that could paralyze or kill any Pokémon who touch it. Scolipede is also extremely fast for its size.

===Behavior===
Scolipede are very aggressive and will not give up until victorious. They chase down enemies with their great speed then relentlessly attack with their horns until prevailing. They {{status|poison}} their opponents with the claws on their necks.

===Habitat===
They live in forests.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Scolipede anime.png|thumb|right|250px|Scolipede in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
A wild Scolipede appeared in ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is on Axew!]]''. [[Iris's Axew]] fell out of a tree and got caught in Scolipede's antennae. This startled Scolipede and caused it to go on a rampage, until [[Iris's Excadrill]] decided to defeat it with its {{m|Drill Run}} attack.

Another Scolipede appeared in ''[[BW065|Battling the Bully!]]''.

A Scolipede appeared in ''[[BW083|Rocking the Virbank Gym! (Part 1)]]'' and ''[[BW084|Rocking the Virbank Gym! (Part 2)]]'' under the ownership of [[Roxie]].

===Minor appearances===
Another wild Scolipede appeared in ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'', attacking {{Ash}}, {{an|Cilan}}, and {{an|Bianca}} after Bianca accidentally enrages it by having her {{TP|Bianca|Pignite}} use {{m|Flamethrower}} on Scolipede when she thought it was the wild {{TP|Iris|Emolga}} she was after. The three Trainers soon managed to escape from the angry Megapede Pokémon.

[[Emmanuel]] used a Scolipede in ''[[BW039|Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!]]'' for the [[Club Battle]]. However, they lost.

A wild Scolipede appeared again in ''[[BW053|A Maractus Musical!]]''.

==Trivia==
* Scolipede is the tallest and heaviest of all {{type|Bug}} Pokémon, as well as being the heaviest {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.
* Scolipede represents {{wp|November}} in the [[Unova]] [[horoscope]].

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Venipede, Whirlipede and Scolipede}}
Scolipede's species shows that it was inspired by the {{wp|centipede}}, most likely the ''{{wp|Scolopendra gigantea}}''. It could be based on ''{{wp|Arthropleura}}'', a prehistoric relative of centipedes that grew to 2 and a half metres. Scolipede also has a little in common with {{wp|millipede}}s, and may also draw inspiration from a red ''{{wp|Archispirostreptus gigas}}'', a species of millipede often kept as a pet. Its appearance may also draw reference to ''{{wp|scoliosis}}'', a spinal condition in which the backbone curves abnormally. This may also draw reference to its major increase in height between its evolutionary forms. Scolipede's posture, and the fact that it stands on four 'main' legs, could be an indication that it draws some inspiration from {{wp|centaur}}s.

====Name origin====
Scolipede is a combination of ''{{wp|Scolopendra}}'' (genus of {{wp|centipede}}s) and ''centipede'' or ''millipede''. It may also involve ''{{wp|scoliosis}}''.

Pendror is derived from ''Scolopendra''.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Venipede, Whirlipede and Scolipede}}
Whirlipede, like its [[species]] states, is based on a {{wp|centipede}}. However, its rolled up appearance and color scheme is more similar to that of an {{wp|oniscidea}} or {{wp|oniscomorpha}}. When in danger, these arthropods in these two orders will curl up into a ball. It also resembles a car tire.

====Name origin====
Whirlipede is a combination of ''whirl'' and ''centipede'' or ''millipede''.

Wheega is a combination of ''wheel'' and 毬 ''iga'' (sphere).

==Trivia==

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Venipede, Whirlipede and Scolipede}}
Venipede, like its [[species]] states, is based on a {{wp|centipede}}. However, it is more similar in appearance to an arthropod in the {{wp|Oniscidea}} suborder or of the {{wp|Oniscomorpha}} superorder, like a {{wp|Armadillidiidae|pill bug}} or a {{wp|pill millipede}}, respectively. More specifically, it was most likely based on a green {{wp|Glomeris marginata}} (North American pill millipede).

====Name origin====
Venipede is a combination of ''venom'' and ''centipede'' or ''millipede''.

Fushide may be a combination of 節 ''fushi'' (joint/segment) and ムカデ ''mukade'' (centipede).

==Trivia==

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Venipede, Whirlipede and Scolipede}}
Venipede, like its [[species]] states, is based on a {{wp|centipede}}. However, it is more similar in appearance to an arthropod in the {{wp|Oniscidea}} suborder or of the {{wp|Oniscomorpha}} superorder, like a {{wp|Armadillidiidae|pill bug}} or a {{wp|pill millipede}}, respectively. More specifically, it was most likely based on a green {{wp|Glomeris marginata}} (North American pill millipede).

====Name origin====
Venipede is a combination of ''venom'' and ''centipede'' or ''millipede''.

Fushide may be a combination of 節 ''fushi'' (joint/segment) and ムカデ ''mukade'' (centipede).

'''Bibarel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ビーダル''' ''Beadaru'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Bidoof}} starting at [[level]] 15.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Bibarel are large, bulky, brown beaver-like rodent Pokémon, and more bipedal than their pre-evolution. Bibarel have tan "masks", on their faces and rumples on the sides. There are tan "bibs" on their chests, and they have large, broad dark-brown tails with a wavy tan pattern on them. Their hind feet are bigger than their forefeet, with a tan-colored paw pad on the underside. Bibarel, like their prevolution, have pronounced teeth, of which Bibarel uses to chew through wood.
====Gender differences====
A male Bibarel's "mask" has two more circles on it than a female.

===Special abilities===
Bibarel have incredibly sharp front teeth which are used for cutting down small trees to build dams and lodges. They then use their large tails to smack down mud to keep the dams and lodges water-proof. As Bibarel is both Normal-type, a type known for elemental versatility, and Water-type, the type with three HM moves to its name, Bibarel can be effectively used for performing HM moves.

===Behavior===
Bibarel are known to be industrious workers and act as such when making their nests out of mud and wood.

===Habitat===
Bibarel live in rivers. They make their nests out of dams they construct of mud and wood.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Reggie Bibarel.png|thumb|right|210px|Bibarel in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Bibarel appeared in ''[[DP057|Bibarel Gnaws Best!]]'', under the command of [[Isis]]. It refused to help build a bridge because it knew it was structurally unstable.

[[Paul]]'s brother, [[Reggie]], owns a Bibarel which appeared in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Bibarel made its anime debut in brief cameos in ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]'', appearing in the wild.

A Bibarel made a small appearance in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' as one of the Pokémon {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} hit with a {{m|Dark Void}}.

Multiple Bibarel appeared in a brief cameo in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Bibarel.
* Due to its ability to learn six HM moves (seven in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}), Bibarel is considered by fans to be the ideal [[HM slave]].
* Every time Bibarel appears in the anime, it has a female "mask".
**The same applies to its official artwork.

===Origin===
Bibarel is based on a {{wp|beaver}}.
====Name origin====
Bibarel may be a combination of ''beaver'' or ''Biber'' (German for ''beaver'') and ''barrel''. It may also refer to ''bib'' (which is similar to the pattern on Bibarel's front) or a transliteration of ビーバー ''biibaa'' (beaver).

Beadaru is a combination of ''beaver'' and 樽 ''taru'' (barrel).

'''Bidoof''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ビッパ''' ''Bippa'') is a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Bibarel}} starting at [[level]] 15.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Bidoof are small brown rodent-like creatures with large front teeth which they use for gnawing on wood. They have round tufts of fur on their tails and a ring of them on their faces. Bidoof has a red nose, a black snout and a paler-colored underside. They also have black, slightly webbed paws. In the anime, it is shown that they can run on two legs like humans.

====Gender differences====
The tail of a male Bidoof consists of five tufts of fur, while the tail of a female only has three.

===Special abilities===

===Behavior===
Bidoof need to constantly gnaw on hard substances to keep their teeth ground down, since they grow constantly. Without something to gnaw on, they become violent because of the pain and inconvenience the unwieldy growing teeth cause.

===Habitat===
Bidoof build their nests along the side of bodies of water.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Bidoof feed mainly on seeds, roots, and plants. Occasionally they eat tree bark. They also eat [[Berry|berries]].

==In the anime==

The shovels were removed through the combined efforts of multiple Bidoof, Ash's {{AP|Staravia}}, and his {{AP|Pikachu}}.

===Minor appearances===
Bidoof made its anime debut in brief cameos in ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]'', appearing in the wild.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}: Bidoof is a member of [[Wigglytuff's Guild]], the second newest recruit next to the player's team. He updates his "Yup Yup" journal over the course of the game.
* {{g|Ranger: Shadows of Almia}}: Nine Bidoof are used by [[Team Dim Sun]]'s [[Wheeler]].
{{spoilers}}
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky}}: Bidoof stars in his own special episode, being the playable character. When Bidoof left home and first joined [[Wigglytuff's Guild]], he often messed jobs up and wasn't really liked by anyone. One day, whilst visiting the [[Kecleon Shop]], he was approached by a {{p|Snover}} who gave him an old map before hurrying off. A {{p|Gligar}} and {{p|Bagon}} then appeared to be chasing Snover. The map showed a legendary dungeon known as the [[Star Cave]] where {{p|Jirachi}} sleeps, and after learning about it from {{mdc|Chatot|2}}, Bidoof decided to go there and wish to make himself a stronger explorer. Snover finds Bidoof at the Guild, and together they go to the Star Cave. However, upon reaching the end, Gligar and Bagon appeared, and Snover turned against Bidoof. It turns out that it was a trap, and Snover, Bagon and Gligar are a gang of thieves called Team Rogue. They saw Bidoof's money when he visited the Kecleon shop, so they lured Bidoof to the Wish Cave, hoping to steal his money. Bidoof fights the three, but fails. Before Team Rogue can steal Bidoof's money, the entire Guild shows up to help him. Bidoof is touched that he is an appreciated member of the Guild after all. {{mdc|Wigglytuff|2}} helps him blast open a hidden cave where Bidoof can find Jirachi. He finds Jirachi sleeping. It talks in its sleep, warning Bidoof that it attacks in its sleep. Bidoof must defeat it to help it awaken. Bidoof makes his wish and, though given a lot of choices, Bidoof wishes for new juniors to join the Guild so he could help them. The wish is fulfilled when the player and his/her partner joins the Guild, thus ending the story.

==Trivia==
* In each region, there is a two-stage {{type|Normal}} Pokémon encountered early in the region. Bidoof is the [[Sinnoh]] variation on this theme, while {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Sentret}}, {{p|Zigzagoon}}, and {{p|Patrat}} are those of other regions.
** Out of all of them, however, Bidoof is the only one whose {{p|Bibarel|evolution}} is not pure Normal-type.
* Bidoof's Platinum Pokédex entry references {{p|Rattata}} despite not being in the same regional Pokédex as it.

===Origin===
Bidoof appears to be based on a {{wp|beaver}}, or a {{wp|gopher}}. It is particularly similar to the {{wp|mountain beaver}}, a primitive relative of beavers lacking tails.

====Name origin====
Bidoof is a combination of ''beaver'' and ''tooth'' or ''doofus'' (slang for a stupid person). It may also be derived from ''{{wp|shadoof}}'', a device used in some countries for drawing up water.

Bippa is a combination of ''beaver'' and 出っ歯 ''deppa'' (protruding tooth).

'''Staraptor''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムクホーク''' ''Mukuhawk'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Staravia}} starting at [[level]] 34. It is the final form of {{p|Starly}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Staraptor bears a resemblance to a cross between a large gray and white starling and a hawk. It also shares similarities with the harpy eagle. Staraptor’s plumage is mainly a brownish-gray, but has white coloration on its forehead, throat, and chest. It also has black coloration on its crest, neck, and chest pattern, and black tipping on the tailfeathers. The stylized "M" pattern on the center of its chest resembles the first letter of its Japanese name (Mukuhawk). The downward-facing, red-tipped crest on its head makes it appear larger in order to frighten its enemies.
====Gender differences====
A female has a smaller white spot on its forehead.

===Special abilities===
Staraptor is the only Flying-type capable of using {{m|Close Combat}}.

===Behavior===
Staraptor are highly aggressive and dangerous {{type|Flying}} bird Pokémon. Much like {{p|Taillow}}, Staraptor is a tenacious Pokémon, and never stops attacking even if it is injured. When Staravia evolve into Staraptor, they leave the flock to live alone. Staraptor fusses over the shape of its comb.

===Habitat===
Staraptor live in an array of habitats including open forest, grassland, wetland, mountains, and coniferous forests.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Staraptor have the strength and the stamina to capture and eat prey larger than itself. They usually pursue their prey in the forest using their maneuverability. Despite its predatory nature, it's occasionally found with the [[Yache Berry]].

==Trivia==
* Despite its Pearl Pokédex entry saying that it can fly while carrying a Pokémon, it can't learn {{m|Sky Drop}}.
* Its Pokédex color is Brown, despite being colored gray. Interestingly, its Shiny version is brown.

===Origin===
Staraptor is based on the {{wp|white-cheeked starling}}, a common species of bird found throughout Asia, combined with a {{wp|bird of prey}}. Although it largely resembles the starling in appearance, much of its inspiration comes from {{wp|hawk}}s and {{wp|falcon}}s, particularly its predatory nature and aerial speed. It also has strong similarities to the {{wp|harpy eagle}}.

====Name origin====
Staraptor is a combination of ''{{wp|starling}}'' and ''{{wp|bird of prey|raptor}}'' (a predatory bird).

Mukuhawk is a combination of 椋鳥 ''mukudori'' (gray starling) and ''{{wp|hawk}}''.

'''Staravia''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムクバード''' ''Mukubird'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Starly}} starting at [[level]] 14 and evolves into {{p|Staraptor}} starting at level 34.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Staravia has a small M-shaped pattern on its chest, likely for its Japanese name of Mukubird. Staravia has a gray-colored spot on its forehead, and a spiky pattern of white on its face. The nails of Staravia’s claws are now black in coloration. They also have a crest on top of its head.

====Gender differences====
The gray spot on a female's forehead is smaller.

===Special abilities===
Staravia is capable of learning speed-based moves such as {{m|Quick Attack}}, {{m|Aerial Ace}}, and {{m|Agility}}.

===Behavior===
Recognizing their own weakness, they tend to live in large flocks with other Staravia. Squabbles over territory may occur when flocks collide. When alone, a Staravia cries noisily.
===Habitat===
Staravia live in forests or fields.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Staravia mainly eat {{type|Bug}} Pokémon. They seem to have an affinity with the [[Yache Berry]] as well, as they are sometimes seen with this Berry.

'''Starly''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムックル''' ''Mukkuru'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Staravia}} starting at [[level]] 14, which evolves into {{p|Staraptor}} starting at level 34.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Starly is a bird with a brownish-gray colored body. The lower half of its wings as well as its head are black. Its face looks like it is wearing a white mask, with black eyes with white pupils as well as a thin orange beak with the tip of it painted black. On its chest is a white spot. Starly's feet are orange and also has three tailfeathers: two black and one white in the middle.
====Gender differences====
The white spot on a female's forehead is smaller.

===Special abilities===
Although small, they are described to flap their wings with great power.

Starly appears to have sharp vision, as it possesses the Ability {{a|Keen Eye}}, where its accuracy can't be marred whatsoever by any force due to its eyesight.

===Behavior===
Starly are very complacent Pokémon, like most {{type|Flying}}s. Cool and calm at nearly all times, they are also very sociable creatures, although they may bicker if their group becomes too big. Starly's calls are known to be very strident.

===Habitat===
Starly live in forests, indicating that they make nests in the trees like common birds. Despite this, they are more often found in the grassy roads near small towns that aren't very big. They have territories, but they are not as large as those of their evolved forms.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Starly prey on small {{t|bug}} Pokémon. It appears to have an affinity with the [[Yache Berry]], as it is occasionally found with it. Starly has also been depicted to consume the acorn-like Berries growing on the bushes of {{p|Grotle}}.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Rowan Starly.png|220px|thumb|Starly in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Staraptor|Ash's Starly]]====
Continuing his {{type|Flying}} Pokémon tradition, {{Ash}} captured a {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]''. He used it to find {{AP|Pikachu}} and it was then used to pop Team Rocket's balloon until it evolved in ''[[DP013|A Staravia is Born!]]''. It evolved into its final form in ''[[DP118|Pursuing a Lofty Goal!]]''.

====Other====
Starly made its first animated appearance in ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]'', with one being examined at [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab.

[[Paul]] captured three Starly in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]''. The first two were released because they didn't know {{m|Aerial Ace}}; although the third could use the move and easily beat Ash's Starly, Paul still deemed it weak and released it as well in the same episode.

===Minor appearances===
Brock healed a wild Starly in ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]''.

Three Starly were also seen under [[Reggie]]'s care in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''.

A Starly appeared in ''[[DP121|The Lonely Snover!]]''. Another Starly appeared in ''[[DP127|Sliding Into Seventh!]]''.

A Starly made a very brief appearance in ''[[DP183|League Unleashed!]]''.

Starly appeared in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'' as a few of the many local Pokémon who lives in [[Crown City]]. A flock of them worked with the other Pokémon in surrounding {{OBP|Zorua|M13}} in the park to attack him, angry at Zorua for what {{OBP|Zoroark|M13}} did to the city. Before a fight broke out, the Starly, along with the other Pokémon, were calmed by {{OBP|Celebi|M13}}.

A Starly made a brief cameo in [[SS024]], outside [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab.

==In the manga==
[[File:Kellyn Starly PRB.png|thumb|Starly in [[Darkrai Mission Story: Pokémon Ranger Batonnage - the Comic]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Platinum}} was attacked by a swarm of Starly just leaving [[Professor Rowan]] in the first chapter. She was protected by {{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}} when they were attacked.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
[[Mitsumi]] used a Starly in [[DPA01|the first chapter]] to battle a rampaging {{p|Onix}}, but the battle was quickly interrupted by a group of {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Aipom}} [[Hareta]] befriended earlier.

===In the Darkrai Mission Story: Pokémon Ranger Batonnage - the Comic manga===
[[Kellyn]] caught a Starly with his [[Capture Styler]] and used its {{m|Whirlwind}} to save [[Professor Hastings]] from crash-landing.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Starly (TCG)}}

== Other appearances ==

=== [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] ===

Starly appears as a trophy.

==== Trophy Information ====

''"A Starling Pokémon. It usually lives and travels in large flocks, so a single Starly will go unnoticed. To make up for this, its call is very noisy. It can often be found in places with heavy vegetation. Its small frame and cute appearance belie the incredible power with which it flaps its wings. When it levels up, it evolves into Staravia."''

'''Crobat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クロバット''' ''Crobat'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Golbat}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]]. It is the final form of {{p|Zubat}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Crobat has a purple body as opposed to the blue body its pre-evolutions had. Crobat has a stubby pair of feet, and has developed a {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with two or more pairs of wings|second pair of wings}} with greenish-blue undersides and two stubby 'fingers'. Crobat's pointed ears are long, and appear to lack ear insides. Crobat's mouth is smaller in comparison to Golbat's, and it appears to have its teeth constantly bared. It has also been shown to have teeth only on its lower jaw. Crobat's eyes are yellow with red pupils.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Crobat's extra pair of wings allow it to fly much faster than its predecessors. Crobat's wings have also developed a more powerful cutting edge for using {{m|Cross Poison}} and {{m|X-Scissor}}.

Like most fully evolved Pokémon, Crobat can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

===Behavior===
Like its pre-evolutions, Crobat becomes [[nocturnal Pokémon|active at night]]. If Crobat is flying by fluttering only a pair of wings on either the forelegs or hind legs, it is proof that Crobat has been flying a long distance. It switches the wings it uses if it is tired. By alternately resting its front and rear wings, it can fly all day without having to stop. Crobat rests by hanging on a tree branch with its rear legs that serve as wings.

===Habitat===
[[File:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]
Crobat is a cave-dwelling Pokémon, however it is likely that they flutter outside [[Nocturnal Pokémon|during the night]]. They can be found in the [[Unova]] region.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Crobat sneaks up on its intended prey.

==In the anime==
[[File:Brock Crobat.png|220px|thumb|right|Crobat in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Brock's Crobat]]====
{{an|Brock}} had a Crobat that he originally caught as a {{p|Zubat}}. It reached its final evolutionary form in ''[[EP196|Control Freak!]]''. He eventually gave it to his brother [[Forrest]].

====Other====
Several Crobat appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]'', employed by the [[J's henchmen|followers]] of [[J|Hunter J]].

===Minor appearances===
Crobat made a small appearance in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' as one of the Pokémon {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} hit with a {{m|Dark Void}} attack as the other Trainers were attacking him.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Johto}}
{{Animedexbody|EP196|Crobat|Ash's Pokédex|Crobat, the evolved form of {{p|Golbat}}. With its two additional wings, Crobat is able to fly much faster than Golbat.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Janine Crobat Adventures.png|thumb|150px|[[Janine]]'s Crobat as it appears in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In {{PAV|11}}, [[Janine]] uses a Crobat to fight {{p|Suicune}}, but even her best ninja-based skills fail to defeat the legendary Water-type.

In {{PAV|12|the following volume}}, a herd of Crobat, Zubat, and Golbat attacked [[Misty]], [[Brock]], and [[Erika]] in the [[Tohjo Falls]].

{{adv|Giovanni}} is later seen with a Crobat in {{PAV|24}}, presumably picked up during his solo training journey.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Crobat (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Crobat only appears as a random trophy.
====Trophy information====
''A Bat Pokémon that evolves from {{p|Golbat}}, Crobat's hind legs have evolved into a second pair of wings, which allows it to fly at great speeds but limits its ability to rest. The affection a Golbat has for its {{pkmn|Trainer}} is vital for the evolution process: if a novice Trainer has a Crobat, it shows that he or she cares for Pokémon well.''

==Trivia==
* Despite the fact that the Pokédex information says that Crobat's rear legs and rear wings are the same body part, Crobat clearly has a set of feet and legs distinct from its hind wings depicted in the rear sprites in [[Generation III]], front sprites in [[Generation V]] as well as in the anime, TCG, and 3D games. However, the [[footprint]] in the Pokédex for Crobat is blank.
* Since its debut in [[Generation II]], Crobat's color scheme has been {{p|Golbat}}'s color scheme, inverted. This also applies to its {{Shiny}} variation.
* Crobat has the highest base stat total of all {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.
* Crobat is the fastest {{type|Poison}} Pokémon, with a base Speed of 130.
* Crobat is the only Pokémon of its body type ({{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with two or more pairs of wings|type 13}}) that is not {{type|Bug}} or in the {{egg3|Bug}}.
* Prior to [[Generation IV]], Crobat was the only member of the Zubat evolutionary line that could learn {{m|Fly}}.
* Crobat is the first Pokémon in the [[National Pokédex]] to be related by evolution to a Pokémon from a previous generation.

===Origin===
Crobat is based on a {{wp|bat}}.

====Name origin====
Crobat may be a combination of ''cross'' and ''{{wp|bat}}''. It may also be a combination of 黒 ''kuro'' (black) and ''{{wp|bat}}''. Alternatively, it may be a corruption of ''{{wp|Acrobatics|acrobat}}'', describing Crobat's maneuverability in the air.

'''Golbat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴルバット''' ''Golbat'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Zubat}} starting at [[level]] 22 and evolves into {{p|Crobat}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Golbat is a blue {{dl|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a single pair of wings|bat-like}} Pokémon. Its wing membranes and ear insides are purple. It has a large mouth with four fangs, and a large red tongue. Since evolving, it has formed a pair of small eyes. Golbat has a short pair of legs that possess only one toe each. Golbat's ears are much smaller compared to Zubat's, being triangular and having ear insides that do not appear chambered. Golbat's wings, unlike Zubat, also only have one 'finger' instead of two.

====Gender differences====
A female has smaller fangs.

===Special abilities===
They have a nasty bite. They can also confuse foes with {{m|Supersonic|high-pitched screeches}}.

Golbat basically have the same abilities as Zubat, only stronger. Golbat is one of a small number of Pokémon still capable of evolution that are able to use {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

===Behavior===
Golbat tend to be gluttonous and are prone to drinking blood until they get too heavy to fly straight.

===Habitat===
[[File:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]
Golbat can be found quite easily in caves, particularly in caverns with limestone, which enhances their ultrasonic radar. Much like {{p|Zubat}}, it can be found in most regions.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
It loves the blood and energy of humans and Pokémon, and at night, it flies around looking for victims. When it absorbs blood, its blood type changes to the same blood type as its victims.

==In the anime==
[[File:Brodie Golbat.png|250px|thumb|right|Golbat in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Brock's Crobat|Brock's Golbat]]====
{{an|Brock}} had a Golbat that he caught as a {{p|Zubat}}. It eventually evolved into a {{p|Crobat}}.

====[[Koga's Golbat]]====
[[Koga]] used a {{TP|Koga|Golbat}} against [[Ash's Charmander]] in his rematch against Ash in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]''.

====Other====
In ''[[EP075|Round One - Begin!]]'', a Golbat was the third Pokémon that [[Mandi]] used against [[Ash Ketchum]] during the first round of the [[Indigo League]]. It was defeated by [[Ash's Kingler]]. It reappeared in a flashback in [[EP076|the following episode]] and in another flashback in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]''.

A group of Golbat appeared in ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
A group of Golbat appeared in ''[[EP128|The Whistle Stop]]'', after [[Brock's Zubat]] accidentally lured them with supersonic waves.

In the series, Golbat and its relatives were frequently employed by [[Villainous teams|criminal organizations]], such as [[Team Magma]] (''[[AG054|Fight for the Meteorite]]'' and ''[[AG119|The Ribbon Cup Caper]]'' (employed by [[Brodie]] to escape with {{m|Haze}} after stealing a golden [[Poké Ball]]), [[Team Galactic]] (''[[DP069|Enter Galactic!]]'', ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous]]'', ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', ''[[DP110|Steeling Peace of Mind!]]'', ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]'', ''[[DP136|Gateway to Ruin!]]'', ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'' and ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]''), and [[Pokémon Hunter]] [[J]]'s [[J's henchmen|evil cronies]] (''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty]]'', ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]'', and ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]'').

Multiple Golbat also appeared in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' and ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.

Multiple Golbat also appeared in a cave in ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go Getters Out of the Gate!]]'' and ''[[SS020|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]]''.

'''Zubat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ズバット''' ''Zubat'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Golbat}} starting at [[level]] 22, which evolves into {{p|Crobat}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Zubat is a small, blue {{dl|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a single pair of wings|bat-like}} Pokémon. It has two long, skinny legs. Zubat's face lacks any eyes and a nose. The insides of Zubat's ears and undersides of its wings are purple. Zubat's wings are supported by elongated 'fingers', and four teeth can be discerned from inside its mouth, two on the lower jaw and two on the upper.

====Gender differences====
A female has smaller fangs.

===Special abilities===
Though blind, they get around well with echolocation. They can also confuse foes with their high-pitched squeals.

===Behavior===
Zubat is mostly nocturnal, forming colonies in perpetually dark places and hanging upside-down when asleep. When they awake, Zubat will constantly swarm around caves during the nighttime. Zubat avoids sunlight and bright places because prolonged exposure to the sun causes its body to become slightly burned, and otherwise causing it to become unhealthy.

===Habitat===
[[File:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]
Since Zubat prefer the dark, their primary habitat is caves, although during the daytime Zubat may also stay under the eaves of old buildings or in forests. However, at night, they can be found roaming outside, usually for food. It has a very wide range which includes [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], [[Unova]] and even [[Orre]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
At night it goes in search of other Pokémon and sometimes humans to suck blood from, although the information is not documented as clearly as that of its evolution, Golbat.

==In the anime==
[[File:Brock Zubat.png|200px|right|thumb|Zubat in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
===={{TP|Brock|Brock's Zubat|Crobat}}====

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as the Zubat evolutionary family.
* Until Generation V, Zubat was the last Pokémon in both the English and Japanese alphabetical listings. With the release of Black and White, {{p|Zweilous}} became last in English and {{p|Scrafty}} last in Japanese.
* Zubat is capable of learning {{m|Brave Bird}} despite not actually being based on a bird.
* Zubat shares its species name with its evolutions, {{p|Golbat}} and {{p|Crobat}}, and with {{p|Woobat}}, all known as the Bat Pokémon.
* Although Zubat does not have eyes, it can still be affected by {{m|Flash|accuracy}}-{{m|Sand-Attack|reducing}} {{m|SmokeScreen|moves}} that would appear to require the target have eyesight to work.
* Zubat, along with {{p|Golbat}}, has [[List of Pokémon that appear in every regional Pokédex|appeared in every regional Pokédex]]. Though this is due to the Unova Pokédex's expansion in Black 2 and White 2.

===Origin===
Naturally, Zubat's design is inspired by bats. Its lack of eyes may come from the misconception that bats are blind. Its wings resemble sound waves, which is probably because Zubat and real-life bats use echolocation to navigate and locate prey.

====Name origin====
Zubat may be a pun based on both ''{{wp|bat}}'' and ずばっと ''zubatto'', an onomatopoeia for when an edged tool forcefully pierces something (possibly referring to its fangs or the sound a bat makes).

==In other languages==
{{Other languages|type=poison|type2=flying
|ja=ズバット ''Zubat''|jameaning=From ''{{wp|bat}}'' and ずばっと ''zubatto'', an onomatopoeia for when an edged tool forcefully pierces something
|fr=Nosferapti|frmeaning=From ''{{wp|Nosferatu (word)|Nosferatu}}'', another word for vampire. The "rapti" part may come from the root "rapt" which relates to predatory characteristics. The "pti" may come from ''{{tt|petit|little}}'', to go with the ''{{tt|alto|high}}'' in {{p|Golbat}}'s French name
|es=Zubat|esmeaning=Same as English/Japanese name
|de=Zubat|demeaning=Same as English/Japanese name
|it=Zubat|itmeaning=Same as English/Japanese name
|ko=주뱃 ''Jubaet''|komeaning=Transliteration of Japanese name
|zh_yue=波音蝠 ''Bōyāmfūk''|zh_yuemeaning=Means "{{wp|Mordent}} bat". May also be taken from {{tt|音波 ''yāmbō''|soundwave}} or {{wp|Boeing|{{tt|波音 ''Bōyām''|Boeing}}}}
|zh_cmn=超音蝠 ''Chāoyīnfú''|zh_cmnmeaning=Literally "Supersonic bat"
