'''Kalos''' (Japanese: '''カロス地方''' ''Kalos-chihō'') is a region of the [[Pokémon world]]. It is the setting of {{g|X and Y}}. It is based on {{wp|France}}.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrL3I38VO3o Pokémon X and Pokémon Y Developer Roundtable Recap] (YouTube)</ref>

The Kalos region is shaped like a five-pointed star, with one of its biggest cities being [[Lumiose City]] to the north-central part of the region. It features a vast network of rivers and waterways snaking through much of its landscape, cities and towns. North-east of Lumiose City, lies a mountain range where more frigid temperatures exist, extending down into the plains below. Western Kalos features a vast ocean, where the shore side city of [[Shalour City]] lies in the middle of a cove.

==Landmarks==
Lumiose City includes a tall tower in its center. Shalour City features the [[Tower of Mastery]].

==Etymology==
According to [[Junichi Masuda]], the name "Kalos" comes from the Greek word ''κάλλος'', meaning beauty.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pG-q-WIYTs Pokémon X and Pokémon Y: Honedge Revealed!] (YouTube)</ref>

Bad Egg

2013-07-28T22:55:33Z

Adwajr: Undo revision 1944654 by Shawny21 (talk)

[[File:Bad egg.png|150px|right|thumb|A Bad Egg in the [[party]] in Generation III]]
A '''Bad Egg''' (Japanese: '''ダメタマゴ''' ''Bad Egg''), stylized as '''Bad EGG''' in Generation III, is a phenomenon present in the [[Generation III]], [[Generation IV]], and [[Generation V]] Pokémon games that results from a corruption of Pokémon data so that the {{wp|checksum}} does not match up with the data's calculations. In [[Generation IV]], sometimes Bad Eggs can hatch into [[-----]] or another Bad Egg.

Bad Eggs are not really [[Pokémon Egg]]s, and may possibly never have been, but instead the default message returned by the game if the checksum is off (which happens only if data is altered badly). Bad Eggs rarely hatch and cannot be released, merely taking up space, though there are methods of removing them—it is possible to [[trade]] a Bad Egg away into another game, or remove it by [[cheating]].

==Game data==
[[File:Bad Egg status screen RS.png|right|thumb|250px|The Bad Egg's status screen in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}]]
Like a normal Egg, Bad Eggs appear with a type of {{t|???}}, as well as have the same Pokémon status screen as an Egg would. Despite this, the similarities end there, as Bad Eggs can be [[held item|holding items]] (such as {{DL|Poké Ball|Cherish Ball}}s, which cannot be taken), be placed within types of [[Poké Ball]]s aside from the standard kind, and have [[Seal]]s attached—which prevents them from being deposited in the PC. After that, it is only possible to remove the seal from the Bad Egg by depositing it into the [[Pokémon Day Care]].
Some may be reported to have [[Pokérus]] or be cured of it, and may be [[fainting|fainted]].
[[File:900MS.png|left]]
A Bad Egg placed in the first slot of the [[party]] will, rather than having a normal Egg menu sprite, have a differently colored version of the menu sprite of the Pokémon following it, such as a golden {{p|Bulbasaur}}, a blue {{p|Marowak}}, or a brown {{p|Ho-Oh}}. It is unknown exactly why the sprite retains the last Pokémon's sprite, but the color change is because of the use of palette 0 for this sprite—this is why Pokémon with palette 0 do not change color.

If it is forced to hatch through use of a cheat code, a {{gp|?}} will come out and the game will immediately freeze.

|name1=Bad Egg
|type1-1=???}}

==Appearances of Bad Eggs==
[[File:Bad Egg status screen E.png|right|250px|thumb|The Bad Egg's status screen in {{game|Emerald}}]]
===Generation III===
When using the [[GameShark]] code for quick {{pkmn|Day Care}} level-up, an invisible Bad Egg will appear in the party, which can be switched around using the PC and used in battle. Sometimes, the Bad Egg will take form of the silhouette of a Pokémon in the PC Box. However, attempting to view its summary screen will cause a [[game freeze]].

Alternatively, by using codes to capture wild Pokémon instantly, reducing their HP to 0 yet keeping the battle going, it will be sent to the PC instead as a Bad Egg. This Bad Egg can be removed from the game by picking up another Pokémon while it is held, then setting it back down. This Bad Egg appears differently; instead of an Egg in its status box, it is the "unseen Pokémon" image used in the Pokédex and by [[ten question marks|??????????]]. Like ??????????, using it in battle will cause an instant white out (if used without any other Pokémon in the party).

Bad Eggs can also occur if the player attempts to hack a Pokémon which has an illegal moveset, as the checksums will not add up correctly (as the checksum would use the Pokémon's normal moveset at that level as a check).

===Generation IV===
====Index number 495====
In addition to forcing an ordinary Pokémon to have an invalid checksum, it is possible to encounter a Bad Egg in the wild by using an [[Action Replay]] on {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} and setting the wild Pokémon modifier code to 495 (an identifier of Manaphy Egg, although a Manaphy Egg is rendered as a Bad Egg in battle). The game will freeze instantly on capture when the game attempts to show the Pokédex entry. A normal Egg captured this way (using an identifier of 494) will hatch into a random Pokémon, including Pokémon that do not normally hatch from Eggs like [[legendary Pokémon]] and evolved Pokémon, or may hatch into [[-----]] or, like its [[Glitch Egg|Generation II counterpart]], another Egg (which will then go on to hatch into a ----- itself). Due to being incorrectly generated, whatever is hatched may eventually turn into a Bad Egg itself, and then subsequently hatch yet again. The use of an Action Replay with a "1 hit kill" cheat in Double Battles will often result in a Bad Egg appearing. If the player sees a Bad Egg, the game will occasionally freeze. If {{m|Transform}} is used against a Bad Egg, its backsprite will be exactly the same as its front sprite and the only move it knows is {{m|Splash}}.

====From catching other Trainers' Pokémon via cheat====
If the cheat to catch other Trainers' Pokémon is used, often the Pokémon caught, if following moving after another Pokémon, will either be named the same as the previous Pokémon, Bad Egg, or have a blank name. There are no other side effects.

====Hacked data in Pokémon Battle Revolution====
In {{g|Battle Revolution}}, some Pokémon that are hacked may become Bad Eggs when they are copied from {{5v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. A common example of a Bad Egg replacing a Pokémon is when that Pokémon has more than 510 [[effort values]]. Bad Eggs are unable to battle in Pokémon Battle Revolution.

If the player has a hacked Pokémon, although it won't appear to be a Bad Egg on a DS game, it will show up as a Bad Egg on Pokémon Battle Revolution if used in a DS battle.

===Generation V===
====Generation V Action Replay code====
In [[Generation V]], if a wild Pokémon modifier code is used to encounter a Pokémon with a [[National Pokédex]] number greater than 649, a Bad Egg may appear as a result. The Egg will flee from battle. Catching the Egg will result in the message for a successfully caught Pokémon, but the data of the Egg will be deleted after the battle. The Egg does not have a [[Pokédex]] entry or any status information. The player's Pokémon will not earn any experience after the battle. Due to the removal of [[Seal]]s as a game mechanic, Generation V Bad Eggs cannot have Seals.

Seven Sages

2013-07-28T22:55:10Z

Adwajr:

[[File:Seven Sages.png|right|frame|The Seven Sages in the opening of {{2v2|Black|White}}]]
The '''Seven Sages''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|七賢人|しちけんじん}}''' ''Seven Sages'') are notable ranking members of [[Team Plasma]]. They are a group of intelligent people from all over the {{pkmn|world}}. This group consists of [[Gorm]], [[Bronius]], [[Rood]], [[Zinzolin]], [[Giallo]], [[Ryoku]], and [[Ghetsis]]—who gathered the sages and acts as their internal leader.

==In the games==
===Pokémon Black and White===
The sages are met individually throughout the games, but all of them are seen together in [[N's Castle]] where they block the way to N. All the [[Gym Leader]]s (with the exception of [[Cilan]], [[Chili]], and [[Cress]]) appear and clear the way to N. They typically refrain from battling, having {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt|Grunts}} do so for them.

After [[Ghetsis]] has been defeated, the player must help [[Looker]] find the remaining six sages all over [[Unova]]. Upon being found, each will give the player a [[TM]].

===Pokémon Black 2 and White 2===
The Seven Sages have a different role in the sequels.

[[Rood]] is encountered in [[Driftveil City]], living with [[Anthea and Concordia]] and several Grunts in the original Team Plasma's safehouse. After losing in a battle with the {{player}}, he gives the player N's {{p|Zorua}}. Shortly afterward, he appears on {{rt|6|Unova}} after the player has encountered {{p|Cobalion}}. Later, he appears leading the members of the original Team Plasma against Ghetsis's new Team Plasma at the [[Giant Chasm]], occupying their forces to allow the player to reach Ghetsis himself.

[[Zinzolin]] has joined the new Team Plasma under Ghetsis's leadership, and battles the player several times. After the end of the game, he visits [[Undella Town]] and will give the player research conducted by Ghetsis that allows translation of the coded messages in the [[Abyssal Ruins]]. For reaching the end of the Abyssal Ruins, he will give the player a [[Big Pearl]], and subsequently depart.

[[Gorm]] appears in [[Pinwheel Forest]], while the player and [[Cheren]] are investigating there. He tries to sneak up on them much like he did to {{ga|Hilbert}}/{{ga|Hilda}} in Black and White in the [[Dreamyard]]. He speaks to the two briefly and leaves. Cheren follows him.

It is unknown where the other three sages are during the events of Black 2 and White 2.

==In the anime==
[[File:Seven Sages anime.png|thumb|200px|Two of the Seven Sages in the anime]]
The Seven Sages appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]''. They, along with Ghetsis, were leading a ceremony involving {{an|N}} at N's Castle. However, the ceremony was interrupted when {{p|Reshiram}} suddenly appeared and set the Castle on fire.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Seven Sages Adventures.png|thumb|230px|right|The Seven Sages in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
The Seven Sages debuted as a group in ''[[PS467|Letting Go]]''. They have appeared separately in many locations, mainly supervising Team Plasma Grunts in their various missions.

* Ghetsis debuts in ''[[PS466|An Odd Speech]]'', discoursing over Pokémon liberation to the citizens of [[Accumula Town]].
* Gorm appeared in ''[[PS475|The Mystery of the Missing Fossil]]'' trying to steal a {{key|V|Dragon Skull|Dragon Fossil}} from [[Nacrene Museum]].
* Bronius made his first appearance in ''[[PS479|The Case of the Missing Pokémon]]'', when he was supervising the kidnapping of Pokémon in the city, including {{adv|Bianca}}'s {{p|Litwick}}.
* Ryoku was shown in ''[[ABW22|To Make a Musical]]''. He was at Desert Resort, preparing to enter Relic Castle with his Team Plasma Grunts.
* Giallo appeared after a fight broke out between {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}} that was quelled by {{p|Landorus}}, then the three Pokémon ended up being caught by him.
* Zinzolin was first seen in the [[Cold Storage]], guiding the Team Plasma Grunts in their thefts of Pokémon, including {{adv|Cheren}}'s {{p|Tranquill}}. He was later seen participating in the Pokémon League in disguise.
* Rood did only appear when all the sages were reunited, as in the flashback of three years prior to the events of the {{chap|Black & White}}, when Ghetsis was presenting [[N]] to the other sages and distributing their roles.

==Trivia==
* They share noticeable similarities with the {{wp|Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove}}.
* Six of the Seven Sages have quoted proverbs from several Chinese philosophers.
** Sage Zinzolin quotes a proverb from ''{{wp|Mencius (book)|Mencius}}'' and a line from ''{{wp|Tao Te Ching}}'' at N's Castle.
** Sage Gorm quotes a proverb from {{wp|Sun Tzu}}'s ''{{wp|The Art of War}}'' in Pinwheel Forest, and a line from both The {{wp|Analects}} and ''{{wp|Huainanzi}}'' at N's Castle.
** Sage Bronius quotes another line from ''Tao Te Ching'' at N's Castle.
** Sage Giallo quotes another line from ''Mencius'' at N's Castle.
** In the Japanese version, Sage Ryoku quotes a line from ''{{wp|Zhuangzi (book)|Zhuangzi}}'' at N's Castle. In both versions, he also quotes a proverb by {{wp|Song Dynasty}} philosopher Hu Yin at N's Castle.
** Sage Rood quotes another proverb from the Analects and made a reference to a Chinese idiom at N's Castle.
* With the exception of [[Ghetsis]], their names are references to the colors of the {{wp|rainbow}}.
* The TMs given by the sages are all for [[stats|stat]]-raising moves.
** Of these, Rood is the only sage that gives a [[TM]] that raises the user's stats by a total of one stage. The other TMs given either raise one stat two stages or two stats one stage.

'''Zangoose''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ザングース''' ''Zangoose'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

It is well-known for its ongoing feud against {{p|Seviper}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Zangoose are fairly large Pokémon that have the characteristics of both mongooses and cats. Their fur is mostly white in color, but they possess deep red markings on the face, chest, and forepaws, which have sharp turns and edges. These markings make it appear that Zangoose has been involved in a vicious fight and is covered in blood and scars. They have two apparently retractable, long, sharp, black claws on their forepaws that are their main weapons in battle. Zangoose have large pink eyes, small tufts of white fur on their shoulders, somewhat rabbitlike ears, and a large, furry, white tail. They also have a pattern of four pink circles on the underside of their hind feet in a "paw-pad"-like arrangement. When a Zangoose opens its mouth, two sharp fangs can be seen.

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

====Special abilities====
Zangoose's {{a|Immunity}} and {{a|Toxic Boost}} abilities make it immune to {{status|Poison|poison}} or raises its attack when poisoned respectively. This is possibly an adaptation that was developed over time to deal with the poisonous {{m|Poison Fang|fangs}} and {{m|Poison Tail|tail}} of its nemesis, {{p|Seviper}}.

===Behavior===
Zangoose are bitter enemies with Seviper, and the two will battle each other to the end. It is suggested this rivalry has lasted for ages. It will usually walk on all fours, but when angry, it will stand on its hind legs.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
This Pokémon is found on {{rt|114|Hoenn}} in [[Hoenn]], and more rarely on {{rt|210|Sinnoh}} and {{rt|11|Unova}}, so it presumably prefers to live in mountainous areas with grass, trees, and flowing rivers with waterfalls.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Zangoose is an active hunter, and its prey may include {{p|Seviper}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Blackbelt Zangoose.png|thumb|right|210px|Zangoose in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Zangoose first appeared in ''[[AG048|ZigZag Zangoose]]'' under the control of [[Nicholai]].

Another Zangoose appeared in ''[[SS020|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]]'' as the leader of Team Razor Wind.

In ''[[DP053|Tears For Fears!]]'' another group of Zangoose appeared before {{TRT}} and fought with [[Jessie]]'s {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. Later, Chimchar found the courage to defeat them.

===Minor appearances===
In ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze]]'', it is discovered that [[Paul]] found {{AP|Chimchar|Infernape}} being attacked by a group of Zangoose. Because of the amazing power it used fighting the Zangoose, Paul decided to capture it. Later, Chimchar was to fight another Zangoose and nearly lost to it.

A powerful Zangoose appeared in ''[[DP135|Beating the Bustle and Hustle!]]'' under the ownership of [[Crimson]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Sidney Zangoose Adventures.png|thumb|Zangoose in [[Pokémon Adventure]]]]
===Pokémon Adventure===
In the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}} of Pokémon Adventures, Zangoose first appears in ''[[PS207|VS. Zangoose & Seviper I]]'', where it fought against {{p|Seviper|its sworn enemy}}. However, both of them soon noticed that {{adv|Ruby}} and the {{tc|swimmer}} he was with were watching, and then proceeded to attack them together. With Ruby's three party Pokémon's balls broken from their claws and fangs, it looked hopeless before {{adv|Mimi|the Feebas he fished earlier}} saved the two with a {{m|Light Screen}}. Despite Ruby's protests, it was this feat that had the "ugly" fish join his party.

Zangoose appeared later on as Elite Four [[Sidney]]'s only Pokémon, despite the fact that he specializes in the Dark type.

==In the TCG==

==Trivia==
* Although it is stated that Seviper and Zangoose are bitter enemies, they share several characteristics, such as being in the {{egg|Field}} egg group, residing in the same [[Friend Areas|Friend Area]], and having a base stat total of 458 (which is unique to only them).
* Despite its sharp claws, as well as the basis of its name (see below), Zangoose is unable to learn {{m|Cut}}.
* Before [[Generation IV]], Zangoose was the [[signature move|only Pokémon]] to learn {{m|Crush Claw}} by leveling up.
* Zangoose is compatible with the [[Generation III]] move tutor that teaches {{m|Thunder Wave}}, but not the TM that teaches the move that was introduced in [[Generation IV]].
* Every one of Zangoose's Pokédex entries mention Seviper.
* Zangoose is the only Hoenn-dex Pokémon not present in Sapphire ''or'' Emerald versions. Like {{p|Lunatone}} (which can not be found in Ruby or Emerald), it can be found in XD.

===Origin===
Zangoose, as its name implies, is based on a {{wp|mongoose}}, as well as cats. It bears the most physical resmeblance to the Angora and Persian breeds. The rivalry it shares with Seviper is based on the relationship between both cats and mongooses towards {{wp|snake}}s.

====Name origin====
Zangoose's name is a portmanteau of ''mongoose'', a small, cat-like carnivore that is well known for its ability to hunt and kill venomous snakes, and 刪 ''san'', cut down. The word for "mongoose" in Japan translates literally to "cat ferret", which explains its felid appearance and its nickname in the Pokédex. It may also come from 残痕 "zankon", scars due to the markings in its body. It may also be a portmanteau of "mongoose" with "zangado", Portuguese for "angry", due to its ferocious behavior and look.

Kanto Route 11

'''Route 11''' is an east-west route located in southeastern [[Kanto]]. Its western terminus is at [[Vermilion City]] and its eastern terminus is at the [[Silence Bridge]], better known as {{rt|12}}. Just east of Vermilion, Route 11 meets the southern portal of [[Diglett's Cave]], a major cave route connecting southeast Kanto with [[Pewter City]] and the remainder of western Kanto.

==Route description==
From its junction with Route 12, Route 11 passes over a short bridge before heading west through a clearing in the forest that lines the west side of Route 12. The route becomes more built-up as it approaches a [[lookout station]], becoming fenced on each side. This station is seen by some as the eastern terminus of Route 11.

Inside of the station in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]], trainers who have collected data on 30 or more Pokémon species in their [[Pokédex]] will be able to obtain the [[Itemfinder]] from one of [[Professor Oak]]'s aides. Also, in [[Generation III]], a trainer will trade a {{p|Nidorina}} or a {{p|Nidorino}} for the Pokémon of the opposite gender. The Pokémon requested varies by version. In [[Generation II]], the lookout station has been torn down.

West of the station, the route is completely surrounded by grass patches. To avoid encounters with [[wild Pokémon]], trainers can follow beaten dirt paths through the field. The first such path begins just west of the lookout station. The path turns south before resuming a westward alignment and turning north to intersect a short path that travels to the west. The main path continues north, then west to come to a near four-way intersection. The north and south paths ultimately lead to a dead end surrounded by grass while the west path continues toward Vermilion.

Several paces west of the four-way intersection is another three-way junction. The two routes, which isolate a small patch of grass from the rest of the route, rejoin east of Diglett's Cave. In Generation I and Generation III, the route runs along the north bank of a narrow channel as it meets the southern portal of Diglett's Cave and enters Vermilion. In Generation II, however, the junction that rejoins the two routes is located just east of the Vermilion City limits. The river is also non-existent and Diglett's Cave actually emerges in east Vermilion.

==Differences among generations==
===Generations I and III===
At the east end of Route 11 is a sleeping {{p|Snorlax}}, blocking not only Route 11 but also Route 12. To move it, a trainer must play the [[Poké Flute]] to awaken the Pokémon.

===Generation II===
In the most noticeable change, the number of trainers on the route had been cut from ten to four. Just as noticeable is the removal of the lookout station on the east end of Route 11 and the moving of Diglett's Cave from Route 11 to Vermilion City.

===Generation IV===
The layout of the route is different to previous generations. The Snorlax blocking the intersection between [[Route 11|Routes 11]] and [[Route 12|12]] has been moved to the front of [[Diglett's Cave]] (which is now part of the route again instead of Vermilion as in [[Generation II]]). The method of moving Snorlax is the same as the Generation II games. A new hill is added in the west, before the entrance to Vermilion City. The road that goes through the [[tall grass]] is designed different. The [[lookout station]] is present unlike Generation II. Fences are added as well a new section at the southwest that leads to a new part of Vermilion. A signpost is added near the guard house and the [[Berries (Generation II)#Berry|Berry]] tree, now replaced by a [[Apricorn|Apricorn tree]] containing a [[Apricorn#Grn Apricorn|Grn Apricorn]], has moved to the center of the route. Strangely, most of the trees placed in this route are backwards, as well several other textures, unlike all other Generations and places of the games.

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==

It made its debut appearance in ''[[PS012|Wake Up-You're Snorlax]]'' in the [[Red, Green & Blue chapter (Adventures)|Red, Green & Blue chapter]], where a bike race sponsored by [[Miracle Cycle]] was held with an announcer. The race starts and Route 11 through [[Route 12]] and to the finishing line on Route 11.

The first hurdle was at a narrow bridge guarded by {{p|Tentacruel}} which a male [[Swimmer]] used his {{p|Slowpoke}} to get across the river, whilst {{adv|Red}} used his [[Poli|Poliwrath]]'s {{m|Ice Beam}} to get across.

Next Red took a shortcut through a forest on Route 11 with a [[Bug Catcher]] and his {{p|Scyther}} used a bug repellent to get through, but Red used his [[Pika|Pikachu]]'s {{m|ThunderShock}} and [[Saur|Bulbasaur]]'s {{m|Razor Leaf}} to get through but got a {{p|Beedrill}}'s nest on Bulbasaur's head and got stung several times.

After getting through the {{p|Snorlax}} on Route 12 which Red later captures, and spend all the Winning money and food on feeding Snorlax.

===Pokémon===
There were an abundance of different Pokémon on Route 11.
* {{p|Tentacruel}} (Multiple under the Bridge)
* {{p|Butterfree}} (Forest)
* {{p|Venonat}} (Forest)
* {{p|Venomoth}} (Forest)
* {{p|Beedrill}} (Multiple in the forest)
* {{p|Snorlax}} (Later captured by Red)

==Trivia==
*All the [[Gamer]]s on this route use a [[elemental type|type]] of which relates to a [[Generation I]] [[starter Pokémon]]: {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Water}}, and {{t|Electric}}.
* Engineer Bernie uses a level 18 {{p|Magneton}}; however, {{p|Magnemite}} do not evolve to Magneton until level 30.

'''Route 11''' is an east-west route located in southeastern [[Kanto]]. Its western terminus is at [[Vermilion City]] and its eastern terminus is at the [[Silence Bridge]], better known as {{rt|12}}. Just east of Vermilion, Route 11 meets the southern portal of [[Diglett's Cave]], a major cave route connecting southeast Kanto with [[Pewter City]] and the remainder of western Kanto.

==Route description==
From its junction with Route 12, Route 11 passes over a short bridge before heading west through a clearing in the forest that lines the west side of Route 12. The route becomes more built-up as it approaches a [[lookout station]], becoming fenced on each side. This station is seen by some as the eastern terminus of Route 11.

Inside of the station in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]], trainers who have collected data on 30 or more Pokémon species in their [[Pokédex]] will be able to obtain the [[Itemfinder]] from one of [[Professor Oak]]'s aides. Also, in [[Generation III]], a trainer will trade a {{p|Nidorina}} or a {{p|Nidorino}} for the Pokémon of the opposite gender. The Pokémon requested varies by version. In [[Generation II]], the lookout station has been torn down.

West of the station, the route is completely surrounded by grass patches. To avoid encounters with [[wild Pokémon]], trainers can follow beaten dirt paths through the field. The first such path begins just west of the lookout station. The path turns south before resuming a westward alignment and turning north to intersect a short path that travels to the west. The main path continues north, then west to come to a near four-way intersection. The north and south paths ultimately lead to a dead end surrounded by grass while the west path continues toward Vermilion.

Several paces west of the four-way intersection is another three-way junction. The two routes, which isolate a small patch of grass from the rest of the route, rejoin east of Diglett's Cave. In Generation I and Generation III, the route runs along the north bank of a narrow channel as it meets the southern portal of Diglett's Cave and enters Vermilion. In Generation II, however, the junction that rejoins the two routes is located just east of the Vermilion City limits. The river is also non-existent and Diglett's Cave actually emerges in east Vermilion.

Gym Leader

2010-03-01T19:32:51Z

Adwajr: super-minor edit!

A '''Gym Leader''' (Japanese: '''ジムリーダー''' ''Gym Leader'') is the highest ranking member of a Pokémon [[Gym]]. The main job of a Gym Leader is to test Trainers and their Pokémon so that they are strong and resourceful enough to compete against the [[Elite Four]] in the games or the [[Pokémon League]] in the anime. If a {{pkmn|Trainer}} defeats a Gym Leader in battle, then the Trainer earns that Gym's [[Badge]]. Once a trainer has earned 8 badges from a region, he or she is able to compete against that region's Elite Four or Pokémon League.

A Gym Leader's job is not just to test upcoming Trainers. They must oversee how their respective gym is run and to maintain it. Great care must be taken to make sure that their gym reflects the best environment for the Pokémon type and playing style of choice, usually an environment that suits that type of Pokémon used there (like pools in a Water-type gym or flowers and plants in a Grass-type gym). According to [[Morty]], teaching young people how to battle with Pokémon can also be the job of a Gym Leader. In the games, Trainers must overcome various obstacles and challenges from other Trainers before they can challenge the Leader. Gym Leaders may also be involved in other activities when they are not battling other Trainers or training themselves, usually something to do with their town's particular attraction or landmark. Gym Leaders can also leave their gyms without notice (as {{ga|Blue}}, [[Giovanni]], [[Jasmine]], and [[Wallace]] do), and even challenge other Gyms and the [[Elite Four]] (like [[Volkner]] wanted to do).

It has not exactly been made clear how Gym Leaders attain their position, but it appears that it varies for each gym. Some of them founded their gym and are self-appointed, others appear to be passed on through families, while a few are chosen by the other members of the gym. In the manga series, {{adv|Red}} and [[Falkner]] have to battle with Pokémon set by the Pokémon League, where those Pokémon are not controlled by Trainers and challenger is not allowed to let any of his Pokémon faint.

Although similar in nature, [[Frontier Brain]]s are not considered Gym Leaders and are thus not included in this list.

==Trivia==
*The three {{type2|Electric}} Gym Leaders all have light colored hair. Lt. Surge and Volkner both have blonde hair, and Wattson has white hair.
**They all also wear military styled clothes, with Lt. Surge in an American army uniform, Wattson in an aviator's jacket and Volkner wearing a uniform similar to that of the Turkish army.
*All Gym Leaders of the player's region give away a TM on their defeat, and all but [[Brock]] in [[Generation I]] and [[Falkner]] in [[Generation II]] give away a TM containing their specialty type of move. Interestingly, Brock's {{type2|Normal}} {{m|Bide}} and Falkner's {{type2|Ground}} {{m|Mud-Slap}} are of the other type of the Pokémon on each other's teams (Falkner has only Normal/Flying Pokémon while Brock has only Rock/Ground Pokémon).
**Of the Generation II Kanto Gym Leaders, only Janine and Erika give away TMs, containing {{m|Toxic}} and {{m|Giga Drain}}, respectively, continuing the type-specialty trend.
* Every Gym Leader that specializes in {{type2|Rock}}, {{type2|Ghost}}, and {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon uses {{p|Geodude}}, {{p|Gengar}}, and {{p|Steelix}} respectively in battle.
* Johto is the only region that did not repeat types from gyms released in previous generations. This is likely due to the fact that there had been only eight gyms before, while there were seventeen different types.
* Even though there are thirty-two known gyms in the games, there has not yet been a gym specializing in {{type2|Dark}} Pokémon, although there have been two [[Elite Four]] members, [[Karen]] and [[Sidney]]. Only {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Ground}}-, {{t|Bug}}-, and {{type2|Dragon}} gyms are not located in multiple regions. Each of the twelve other types has been repeated at least once, and {{t|Rock}}-, {{t|Water}}-, {{t|Electric}}-, and {{type2|Fighting}} gyms appear in three of the four regions.
*There have been more male Gym Leaders than female ones in every region except for [[Sinnoh]], where there are four of each. Kanto also has four of each in Generation II.
*So far, all {{type2|Electric}} Gym Leaders have been male, while all {{type2|Grass}} Gym Leaders have been female.
*Even though they were called Leaders in [[Generation I]], this title did not appear in battle until [[Generation II]].
*The only Gym Leaders so far whose parents have been seen in the anime are [[Brock]], [[Sabrina]], [[Tate and Liza]], and [[Roark]]. They all train either {{type2|Rock}} or {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.
**Roark and Maylene are the only ones who have a parent the {{player}} can encounter in the games.
*In the anime, Gym Leaders seem to be forbidden from switching their Pokémon. Those that Ash encountered before [[Blaine]] did switch; however, since Ash's match against Blaine in ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'', Gym Leaders have not switched out their Pokémon. In the games, they may switch their Pokémon as often as any other Trainer.
*For ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Gym Leaders. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about them: ジムリーダー　いのちをかけて　かかってこい ''Jimu Rīdā / Inochi o kakete / Kakatte koi'' "Gym Leader, put your life on the line and challenge me"
*In the Johto saga of the anime, none of the Gym Leaders had the exact same lineups as they do in the games.
**Falkner's {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Pidgeotto}} were completely replaced by {{p|Hoothoot}}, {{p|Dodrio}}, and {{p|Pidgeot}}.
**Bugsy used his in-game team, but had a {{p|Spinarak}} in place of {{p|Kakuna}}.
**In addition to her in-game team, Whitney had, strangely enough, a {{p|Nidorina}}.
**Morty used his in-game team, minus the second {{p|Haunter}}.
**Jasmine used her in-game team, minus the second {{p|Magnemite}}.
**Chuck used a {{p|Machoke}} instead of {{p|Primeape}}.
**Pryce used his in-game team, minus {{p|Seel}}.
**Instead of three {{p|Dragonair}} and a {{p|Kingdra}}, Clair used {{p|Gyarados}}, Kingdra, and only one Dragonair.
*Since Generation II, each region's eighth Gym Leader has had some relation to the Elite Four.
**Clair is Lance's cousin.
**Blue is the former regional Champion.
**Wallace would be a Champion and Juan is his mentor.
**Volkner is Flint's friend.
*In the Pokémon games, only six Gym Leaders can be found outside of their region. In Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, Jasmine is in Sunyshore City. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Jasmine is also found in Celadon City; Crasher Wake, Maylene, and Falkner are in the [[Celadon Department Store]]; Sabrina is at Olivine Harbor; and Bugsy is in the [[Viridian Forest]].
* Generally most Gym Leaders' names are plays off the type they specialize in.

Running Shoes

2010-01-16T22:06:03Z

Adwajr:

[[File:Bag Running Shoes Sprite.png|frame]]
'''Running Shoes''' (Japanese: '''ランニングシューズ''' ''Running Shoes'') are a piece of equipment developed by the [[Devon Corporation]]. They were introduced in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} and used in all standard [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]] games.

They are typically received shortly after the beginning of the game, and allow the {{player}} [[Transportation in Pokémon|to run]] instead of walk, by holding the B button and pressing the D-pad in any direction. In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, this method is overhauled and replaced with a panel on the lower screen that, when touched with the stylus, automatically put on the Running Shoes, allowing the player to run without having to hold the B button. However, there are a few places that cannot be run through, such as very tall, thick grass or deep snow. Most caves and routes, though, as well as some buildings, will allow for running inside of them. In [[Generation IV]], all buildings allow running, but deep snow is added in which one can sometimes run but never bike.

The speed at which players can run is about twice as that of walking, yet slower than any of the [[bicycle]]s.

In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, and {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, the Running Shoes are given by the player's [[mom|mother]] before they leave on the journey. In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, their [[mom]] sends them to the player via one of [[Professor Oak]]'s aides, who is met before entering Route 3 and after battling [[Brock]]. Finally, in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, they are given by the old man who gives the player a tour of [[Cherrygrove City]].

In [[Generation IV]], the player can use running shoes inside of all structures instead of being limited to certain buildings in [[Generation III|past games]].

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Ruby}} has a pair of Running Shoes, given to him as a birthday present by his father, [[Norman]]. They, like the in-game ones, allow Ruby to run far faster than normal.

Old man (Kanto)

2010-01-16T22:01:49Z

Adwajr:

[[Image:OldMan.jpg|frame|right|The old man, as he appears in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, shows the {{player}} how to catch [[wild Pokémon]].]]
The '''old man''' is a small, grumpy old man that lives in [[Viridian City]], [[Kanto]]. At first, he is very grumpy and will not let the {{player}} pass through to {{rt|2}}, until he has had his coffee for the day. This is just a barrier in the game, so players will not wander past Viridian City until the player goes to the Viridian [[Poké Mart]] and delivers a [[List of key items in Generation III#Oak's Parcel|parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]].

After that, he starts to lighten up and help the player by teaching them how to catch a Pokémon using a [[Poké Ball]]. This is like a guide for novice players in {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, and {{game|LeafGreen and FireRed|s}}. He will also give the player a [[Teachy TV]] in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, which teaches the player a variety of things about battling and catching Pokémon. His grandson is the [[Poké Dude]] in [[Generation II]].

He appears again in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} saying that he had his cup of coffee and also tells the player he was once an expert at catching Pokémon. This is a reference to the events that happened [[Generation I|three years]] before [[Generation II]]. Because Kanto is not accessed until later in those games, the old man will not demonstrate how to catch Pokémon; this role is taken by [[Route 29]]'s [[dude]] in Gold, Silver, and Crystal and {{ga|Gold|Hibiki}}/{{ga|Kotone}} in HeartGold and SoulSilver.

In the original Japanese, the old man is not grumpy from lack of coffee, but rather passed out, drunk. This was changed in English for obvious reasons, as this could be deemed as "unsuitable" by parent activist groups.

[[File:Oldman2.jpg|thumb|right|The old man in Generation I]]
==Old man glitch==
{{main|Old man glitch}}
The old man glitch (more commonly known as the Rare Candy cheat) is probably one of the most infamous [[glitch]]es in the [[Generation I]] [[Pokémon game]]s. It is the reason for the appearance of [[Missingno.]] and [['M]], and has a side effect of multiplying the player's sixth item.

The reason for this is the game's use of the space for wild Pokémon data as a temporary storage for the player's name while the game demonstrates how to catch Pokémon with the name "OLD MAN" entered instead. As this data is overwritten neither in cities nor in sea routes, Missingno. and co. can appear to the player depending on the name entered. This was rectified in later games (Yellow especially) which deleted the data on moving to another town.

</gallery>

==Trivia==
* The old man is the first [[non-player character]] to receive a back sprite. Unlike most other NPCs with back sprites, however, he (and Route 29's [[Dude]]) lacks a front sprite.
* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, and {{game|LeafGreen and FireRed|s}} the old man successfully captures the wild Pokémon, after throwing a [[Poké Ball]] at it, however, in {{game|Yellow}}, the Pokémon escapes the ball the first time.
* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, he owns a total of 50 [[Poké Ball]]s in his [[bag]] before he demonstrates how to capture Pokémon to the Trainer. This was changed to one in {{game|Yellow}}, and {{game|LeafGreen and FireRed|s}}.

'''Route 101''' is an extremely short north-south route located in western [[Hoenn]]. It is the first route encountered in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}. It connects [[Littleroot Town]] to the south to [[Oldale Town]] in the north.

At the start of the game, the player meets [[Professor Birch]] as he is being attacked by a [[wild Pokémon]]. The player then battles the Pokémon with either a {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}}, or {{p|Mudkip}}, found in [[Poké Ball]]s in the Professor's [[bag]]. Whichever of the three Pokémon that is chosen will become the player's [[starter Pokémon]].

==Route description==
This small route is known for being one of the first route Trainer's from [[Littleroot Town]] encounter. Professor Birch often preforms his studies here due to a wide arrange of different Pokémon. Heading south from Oldale, trainers can hop over two ledges to reach Littleroot without having to trek through grassy areas containing [[wild Pokémon]]. The path itself, on the other hand, turns east, traveling through the first of three grass patches. Route 101 then turns south into another patch of grass as it heads west. The route forms a "U" at this point, turning south and immediately backpedaling east near the third patch of grass. Route 101 then turns south as it enters Littleroot.

I'm really unsure myself, seeing as I don't try and pay all too much attention to it, and my interpretation is also slightly askew because [[Ruby (Special)|of the manga]].

== Gold's Gen II sprites ==

I started up Crystal and got into a battle with [[Carrie]] at the Trainer House and Gold's Gold and Silver sprite is used for her (her page mentions using Gold's sprite), despite Gold's own Trainer Card displaying that game's new sprite (shown in the sprites section). Can this usage be mentioned? The only problem is that I haven't been able to confirm how it's used for other Trainer House opponents (such as [[Cal]]) as well as during link battles. Does anyone know what the case is with those? --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 23:57, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
:Cal uses character's sprite because he's a placeholder for a proper player (who the player connects, when he uses IR-DA capabilities of GBC). This is a simply technical limitation. If Cal's gonna be featured in HGSS, then he'll probably have his own sprite (he had his own design in Stadium 2, anyways). --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 06:17, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

== Pointless trivia I noticed ==

Gold appears to be the only player character (at least the only male player character) to wear his headgear (in this case, a baseball cap) backward. (I'm only counting game characters, since [[Red (Special)|Red's Pokémon Adventures counterpart]] wears his hat like this in the chapters based on Generation I.)

== Hibiki? ==

Since the girl was confirmed to be Kotone, why isn't Gold's article moved to Hibiki. It was shown on the PokeGear screen referring to him as such and doesn't seem likely the opposite gender character is nameable.

And the girl is Kotone, not Hibiki. {{unsigned|Raine}}
:It could of been one of the default names or the person who was playing the game named it. Therefore, Hibiki is not his real name just wait for the games to come out. --[[User:CoolPikachu!|'''☆Cool''']][[User talk:CoolPikachu!|'''ピカチ''']][[Special:Contributions/CoolPikachu!|'''ュウ!''']] 00:55, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
Ah, but the girl was the player during the time. (When Shoko was playing HG.)

It wasn't referring to the player character since it was on the Phone List.--[[User:Raine|Raine]] 00:59, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
:The player's mom refers to a friend named Hibiki while playing as the girl, so it must indeed be his NPC name. See here: [http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g29/vs_seeker/mom.jpg]. This also matches Kotone's name (which means "koto sound" [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koto_(musical_instrument)]), since it means echo, sound, reverberation, noise. [[User:Capsule Computer|Capsule Computer]] 08:36, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

::::::I thought that it was because Blue's NPC Appearance trumps his Rival Appearance, since the player can still name him in FRLG.

Thus, I think Gold should be moved to Hibiki... once we get his English Name, anyway.--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 21:46, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::It's not just because of that, Kenji-girl. I liked Kotone's actual name better than Soul. We didn't rename Blue because that's the only way he was formally referred to in the games.

::::::::::::::::So basically, we're assuming that:
::::::::::::::::The RGBY protagonist is named after the "first" version of the generation he debuted on, Red.
::::::::::::::::The RGBY rival is named after the "second" version of the generation he debuted on, Green/Blue.
::::::::::::::::The GSC rival is named after the "second" version of the generation he debuted on, Silver.
::::::::::::::::Going from that, isn't it safe to assume that Gold was the GSC boy's original official name (not just a fan name), and the remakes simply changed it to Hibiki because, as a set name ala Brendan/May/Lucas/Dawn, it would look out of place in comparison with the new girl's name (saying "Gold and Kotone" sounds much more weird than saying "Hibiki and Kotone")? Also, more evidence of the GSC boy's original name being Gold is that Red, Blue/Green, Silver and Kris' names appear in the games at top of the list of selectable player names. Red's name was was the top one in Pokémon Red, Blue/Green's was in Pokémon Blue/Green, Silver's was in Pokémon Silver, and Kris' was in Pokémon Crystal (as the first available name for the female trainer). So following the pattern used by every other Gen I/II player character and rival, the GSC boy's name should be the one that is at the top of the list of selectable names in Pokémon Gold, Gold (duh). - [[User:Crystal Master|Crystal Master]] 01:38, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::::Nope, the protaganist and rival from GSC The protaganists and rivals names were both confirmed in GS, where they could be battled. Official names for them was never used pre-HGSS. And we can't rely on DATA, now when we DO have an official name - in-game data is often different than the official name, for instance, Blues in-game data in FRLG calls him "KERRY", or something similar.

== "Game" ==

Why do these articles have [Name of the player](game) as their names? Examples [[Red (game)]], [[Gold (game)]], [[Kris (game)]]. But the articles are about the trainers, not a game called Red, Gold or Kris. Shouldn't we change them to "Red (trainer)", "Gold (trainer)" or "Kris (trainer)"?--[[User:Dr. James|Dr. James]] 03:47, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:No. It means (name) ([From the] game). Birthday! ''Alpha'' [[User:CuboneKing|Cu]][[User talk:CuboneKing|bo]][[Special:Contributions/CuboneKing|ne]][[Cubone (Pokémon)|King]] 03:48, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

::::The parenthesis should indicate ''what are we talking about''. Like this, if the article's name is "Gold (game)", then the article should be about a ''game'' called ''Gold''. However, we are talking about a trainer, or player. So it should be "Gold (player)" or "Gold (trainer)". I hope you understand my point. --[[User:Dr. James|Dr. James]] 03:55, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::While I see your point, (trainer) would not work, as the (game) is also used to distinguish game characters from anime characters and manga characters, and they are trainers in all three media. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 04:12, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

:::::::I see where you're coming from, but like others have said, it basically means Gold (from the game). The concept comes from stuff like [[May (game)]] and [[May (anime)]] both existing, and the rest just conform to that established standard. Besides, [[Gold (game)]] differentiates from [[Gold (Special)]] as well. While I do see you're point, I don't think it's gonna be changed anytime soon. It's just an established system that's worked fine so far. [[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 04:48, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Mmmm... Gotcha. Okay, it was only a suggestion, because a normal user wouldn't understand the title so easily. Even I didn't understand it, that's why I asked it. I hope it changes, to make Bulbapedia a better place. --[[User:Dr. James|Dr. James]] 04:44, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

== Hibiki's namelist in HGSS? ==

"Gold is the '''only male player character''' to have '''two different female''' counterparts."

Does it really matter what the specific genders are? No. So I suggest the following change.

"Gold is the '''only player character''' to have '''two different opposite-gender''' counterparts."

Gold's backsprite is wrong!!
Why does it use the beta backsprite instead of the actual one? (The beta has a red logo on the cap, the official doesn't) -[[User:Adwajr|adwajr]]

{{StrategyWiki}}
'''Pokémon Dash''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンダッシュ''') is a [[Pokémon]] racing game for [[Nintendo DS]]. It was the first Pokémon game released for the Nintendo DS and the first game to feature {{p|Munchlax}}. The {{player}} plays as {{p|Pikachu}}, sliding the stylus across the touch screen in order to keep Pikachu moving, and competing against other Pokémon in the various game modes and racing Cups.

To allow the player to become familiar with the game's controls, the game first offers a practice mode. After the player completes it, the various game modes and Cups become accessible.

The game has 5 Cups: Green Cup, White Cup, Blue Cup, Yellow Cup and Red Cup, each consisting of 5 courses. The courses differ in the various Grand Prixes and the other game modes. In order to unlock a new Grand Prix, the player needs to complete the previous Prix first by winning all five of its Cups.

There is also a mode which allows the player to create his own Cups with courses made of Pokémon sprites from {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire}}, {{3v2|FireRed|LeafGreen|Emerald}} versions. This mode is unlocked along with the Hard Grand Prix mode, after the player has completed the Regular Grand Prix. ''For detailed information on those special courses, see {{DL|Pokémon Dash|Special courses}}.''

==Single player==
===Regular GP and Hard GP===
In these modes, the player races from checkpoint to checkpoint in a specified order. The player competes with about equally-sized Pokémon.

===Expert GP===
In the Expert mode, the player starts from the hot-air balloon with a view over the whole course. The players then dives towards the ground and the race begins. All checkpoints must be reached, but in any order. This gives the player the opportunity to choose where to start the race and allows him to play in his own way and with his own strategy. The player will now also compete with larger Pokémon such as {{p|Blaziken}} or {{p|Mightyena}}, making the races more difficult.

===Time Attack===

==Multiplayer==

==Special courses==
Pokémon Dash includes over 420 special courses. 417 are obtainable by communicating with Game Boy Advance Pokémon versions. These include courses starring all 28 Unown, the four Formes of {{p|Deoxys}}, and an [[Pokémon Egg|Egg]]. There are also three special courses that can be downloaded from official events which star {{p|Munchlax}}, {{p|Pikachu|Surfing Pikachu}}, and {{p|Pikachu|Flying Pikachu}}.

==Reception==
The game received a lukewarm reception, mainly due to the fact that the player could only play as {{p|Pikachu}} in single player. Another common complain was that the game could potentially be finished within hours.

==Trivia==
* Although this is a [[Generation III]] game, it features {{p|Munchlax}} fairly prominently (more so than other games in which Munchlax appeared, such as {{Pokémon XD}}).
* If Pokémon that particpate in races in Dash are present in [[My Pokémon Ranch]], the Pokémon might have a race as one of the game's events.

'''Misty's Togetic''' (Japanese: '''カスミのトゲチック''' ''Kasumi's Togechick'') was the sixth Pokémon Misty got in the [[Kanto]] region. Its voice actress as both a Togepi and Togetic was ''[[Satomi Kōrogi]]''.

==History==
Togepi was found as a [[Pokémon egg]] by {{Ash}} in [[Grandpa Canyon]] in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]''. Ash, [[Misty]], [[Brock]], and {{MTR}} fought over the egg and competed to determine who would be the eventual owner. When the egg hatched into {{p|Togepi}}, the first thing it saw was Misty, and it chose her as its {{pkmn|Trainer}}, thinking that she was its mother.

Although Togepi appeared harmless, it sometimes used {{m|Metronome}} to get out of dangerous situations. The first time it happened was in ''[[EP086|Pikachu Re-Volts]]''. [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]]'s {{p|Drowzee}} was using Metronome to attack Ash and his friends. Misty's Togepi began using it, causing an explosion that sent Butch and Cassidy flying. It happened again in ''[[EP088|In the Pink]]''. A {{p|Rhyhorn}} was about to charge the group when Togepi used Metronome to use {{m|Teleport}}. It also used the move later in the episode to stop a {{m|Hyper Beam}} attack by a {{p|Nidoking}} by using {{m|Reflect}}.

Despite the fact that Misty knew Togepi could battle, she only used it one time to battle Ash. In ''[[EP151|The Totodile Duel]]'', Ash was using his {{AP|Pikachu}} to battle Misty for ownership of a {{AP|Totodile}}. Misty used Togepi, because she knew Pikachu would never attack it, as Pikachu would often babysit it. Using {{m|Charm}}, she ended up defeating Pikachu.

As a Togepi, it was sometimes mischievous. Despite being a baby, it would often wander away from the group and get itself and Pikachu into dangerous situations, usually resulting in Pikachu getting hurt but Togepi walking away unharmed. It was also very friendly towards other Pokémon, particularly ones that were small, young, and/or {{pkmn2|wild}}. The most notable were a {{p|Voltorb}} in ''[[EP114|The Underground Round Up]]'', a {{p|Sentret}} in ''[[EP133|Tanks a Lot!]]'', and, much to Misty's dislike, a {{p|Caterpie}} in ''[[EP161|The Bug Stops Here]]''.

As Ash, Brock, May, and Max met Misty near the gate to the [[Mirage Kingdom]] in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]'', it was kidnapped again by [[Jessie]], [[James]], and Meowth, who were temporarily working for [[Colonel Hansen]], a crooked Mirage Kingdom official. Colonel Hansen wanted to get his hands on Misty's Togepi so he could rule the Mirage Kingdom. Since Colonel Hansen is an impure-hearted person, his taking over the Mirage Kingdom would destroy the [[Togepi Paradise]].

Togepi later evolved into a Togetic in ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]'' in order to protect the other Togepi. When Togetic was injured by Colonel Hansen, Misty promptly sent out her {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}} and defeated Hansen's Shedinja with a {{m|Flamethrower}} attack. After seeing the damage Hansen had done trying to reach the Mirage Kingdom, Misty respected her Togetic's decision to stay behind and {{pkmn2|released}} it, so it could protect the Kingdom, the Togepi Paradise, and the Togepi who lived there.

==Trivia==
* Before Misty hatched her {{TP|Misty|Azurill}}, Togetic was the only Pokémon she owned that was not of the {{type2|Water}}. However, {{p|Azurill}} evolves into a Water-type Pokémon.
* Togetic is the first anime Pokémon hatched from an egg that could evolve twice (later followed by {{AP|Larvitar}}, [[Brock's Happiny]], and [[Dawn's Cyndaquil]]), though it was not able to do so when it was last seen (due to Togekiss not being revealed until Generation IV).
* It is currently the only Pokémon that officially belonged to a main character despite never having been placed in a Poké Ball.
* Togetic is so far the only [[walking Pokémon|out-of-Ball Pokémon]] in the anime that has evolved.
* As a Togepi, it was the second [[Generation II]] Pokémon seen in the anime. As a Togetic, it was the last one to appear. (Second-to-last, if {{p|Porygon2}} is counted, though it has yet to appear.)

'''Lavender Town''' (Japanese: '''シオンタウン''' ''Shion Town'') is a small town located in northeast [[Kanto]], just south of the [[Rock Tunnel]]. Though the Lavender Town of [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]] is known mainly for ghost sightings in the [[Pokémon Tower]] and as the main gravesite of Pokémon, it is noticeably modernized in [[Generation II]] with the inclusion of a broadcasting station.

According to the citizens of the town, Lavender Town is known as the grave site of Pokémon. All the memorial services are held in Pokémon Tower. According to local citizens, the [[Literal ghost|ghosts]] that appear in the Tower are the spirits of Pokémon that have died or were killed (the latter is the case with the mother [[Literal ghost|Marowak]] in the tower, which died at [[Team Rocket|Team Rocket's]] hands).
North of Lavender is {{rt|10}} and the [[Rock Tunnel]]. West of the town is {{rt|8}}, while to the south is {{rt|12}} and the [[Silence Bridge]].

In the anime, {{Ash}} travels to Lavender Town to catch a {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon to fight [[Sabrina]], and ends up befriending a {{TP|Sabrina|Haunter}}. The {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Dome}} is also located near the city.

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
Lavender Town first debuted in ''[[PS013|Sigh For Psyduck]]'' in the [[Red, Green & Blue chapter (Adventures)|Red, Green & Blue Chapter]], and again in ''[[PS014|That Awful Arbok!]]''. {{adv|Red}} was travelling through Lavender Town when it was raining, trying to ask for a place to shelter, but the townspeople did not listen. Then, a man named [[Mr. Fuji]] came up to Red whilst paying his respects to his {{p|Doduo}}, which had passed away.

At Mr. Fuji's home, Fuji told Red about a [[Pokémon Tower|cemetery]] that was haunted by [[Literal ghost|ghosts]], then telling Red that the townspeople wouldn't listen because they were afraid of the ghosts. He later told Red that {{adv|Blue}} had passed through, had gone to Lavender Tower, and hadn't come back for months. Later, Mr. Fuji's Doduo had a place to rest.

==Trivia==
*Lavender Town's Japanese motto is {{tt|シオンはむらさきとうといいろ|Shion is the color of purple nobility}}.
*Lavender Town is the only Town in Kanto in the games apart from Pallet Town.
**It is also the only settlement in Kanto in the games that doesn't have a Gym apart from Pallet Town.
**Lavender Town is also one of the only two towns to appear in all four generations, the other being Pallet Town.

Kanto Route 24

'''Route 24''' is a north-south route north of [[Cerulean City]], linking the burg with {{rt|25}} to the north. Most of Route 24 encompasses the '''Nugget Bridge''' (Japanese: '''ゴールデンボールブリッジ''' ''Golden Ball Bridge''), a location where five {{pkmn|trainers}} will challenge the {{player}} one by one and, upon defeating every trainer on the bridge, a disguised [[Team Rocket Grunt|Rocket Grunt]] will reward the player with a [[Nugget]] and then offer the player a position in [[Team Rocket]]; however, the player automatically refuses and fights the grunt.

==Route description==
The actual southern terminus of the [[route]] is at the southern extent of the [[Nugget Bridge|bridge]]. Route 24 follows the length of the bridge north, running parallel to an express path to the east that originates on [[Route 25]], allowing {{pkmn|trainers}} to travel from [[Cerulean Cape]] to [[Cerulean City]](but not vice versa) quickly.

At the northern end of the bridge, the route opens up at a virtual three-way intersection. To the west is a long, narrow strip of land that contains Route 24's lone patch of grass containing a trainer and [[wild Pokémon]]. This location also serves as the docking platform for a water body that leads to an otherwise unaccessible portion of {{rt|4}}, as well as [[Cerulean Cave]] northwest of Cerulean.

To the north of the bridge is a small plateau containing a variety of [[Item|items]] and people, with the actual contents varying not only by [[Generation]], but also by [[Pokémon games|game]] version. In [[Generation I]], [[TM45]], containing {{m|Thunder Wave}}, is found here. Additionally, in {{game|Yellow}}, a non-battling trainer is found here, offering his {{p|Charmander}} to any trainer that will provide better care for him. In [[Generation II]], no items are present; however, a tree containing a hidden item is present. Finally, in [[Generation III]], TM45, now holding {{m|Attract}}, is found here.

Southeast of the plateau, Route 24 turns to the east and becomes Route 25.

==Differences among generations==
In [[Generation II]], the [[Nugget Bridge]] {{pkmn|trainers}} are no longer present. Instead, the challenge has moved to [[Route 25]]. Also, the grassy area along the narrow strip of land has been reduced by half, allowing the lower portion to become a grass-free docking station.

In [[Generation IV]], Route 24 is nearly identical in structure to [[Generation III]] with the exception of a few minor changes. The trainers on the Nugget Bridge are no longer present and have moved their challenge to Route 25 and the territory that Route 24 occupies is the same as Generation II. Another change is that the bridge is above the water, allowing players to travel underneath the bridge. There is also a tiny strip of land in front of a fence that goes along the path to the right of the bridge.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
Route 24 debuted in ''[[PS009|...But Fearow Itself]]'' in the [[Red, Green & Blue chapter (Adventures)|Red, Green & Blue chapter]] where it is revealed that {{adv|Red}} had caught a {{p|Bellsprout}}. Red tried to capture a peculiar looking {{p|Ratatta}} which turned out to actually be [[Bill]].
It also has a forest and mountains.

==Trivia==

* This [[route]] and {{rt|25}} are the two northernmost places in [[Kanto]].

* The Nugget Bridge in this route is most known for in Generations [[Generation I|I]] & [[Generation III|III]] for the ability to obtain infinite [[Nugget]]s. If the [[player]] loses to the [[Rocket Grunt]], he will be back at the [[Pokémon Center]], with the Nugget he obtained from the Rocket Grunt.

Vs. Seeker

2009-11-18T20:39:50Z

Adwajr:

[[Image:VS_Seeker.png|thumb|100px|right|[[Ken Sugimori|Sugimori]] art of the Vs. Seeker]]

The '''Vs. Seeker''' (Japanese: '''バトルサーチャー''' ''Battle Searcher'', parsed without a period in [[Generation III]] as "Vs Seeker") is a [[key item]] that appears in {{2v|LeafGreen|FireRed}} and {{3v|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} used to re-battle Trainers that the player has battled previously.

== Locations and uses of the Vs. Seeker ==
[[Image:Vsseeker_obtain.png|thumb|250px|right|Explaining the use of the Vs. Seeker]]
===All games===
When used, the Vs. Seeker sends out a signal that allows [[Pokémon Trainer]]s to find other Trainers who want a rematch. This signal affects all Trainers that are within the player's view. Once used, the device cannot be used again until it is charged. The player does this by walking a total of 100 steps. The effect on the Trainers wears off either when they have been battled, when the player leaves the [[route]], or when the player walks 100 steps within the route. If the player attempts to use the Vs. Seeker when it is not fully charged, the player will be told how many steps remain for it to function. It should be noted that after using a Vs. Seeker, some Trainers may have higher leveled or even evolved Pokémon than the last battle. The Vs. Seeker is also unable to be used in buildings or caves, even where previously battled Trainers are present.

===Generation III===
The Vs. Seeker can be obtained from a girl in [[Vermilion City]] Pokémon Center, claiming that she is giving them out to everyone for free. The indication of a rematch is initially a speech bubble above the Trainers' heads with a black double exclamation mark ('''!!'''). After that, the Trainers jump up and down to remind the player post-battle of who wanted a re-match. Trainers that have not been battled previously by the player display a single red exclamation mark ('''!'''), and do not jump up and down. Trainers that do not wish to battle display a blue speech bubble containing a white '''X'''.

[[Image:Vsseeker1.gif|thumb|250px|left|{{ga|Red}} uses the Vs. Seeker on {{rt|25}}. Five Trainers wish to have a rematch.]]
===Generation IV===
The Vs. Seeker is received from {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} on [[Route 207]] after the first trip down [[Route 206|Cycling Road]] in {{2v|Diamond|Pearl}}. In {{v|Platinum}}, instead he/she meets the player at the entrance to [[Mt. Coronet]]. The indication of a rematch in Generation IV is similar to that of Generation III. The initial reaction is a speech bubble containing a double red exclamation mark ('''!!'''), and the Trainers rotate in place afterwards. If a Trainer does not want to battle, they will do nothing.
{{-}}
==In the manga==
According to the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, the Vs. Seeker was designed by [[Bill]] and works by sensing the fighting spirit of willing Trainers.

==In the TCG==
The {{TCG|VS Seeker}} has appeared as a card in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].

==Trivia==
*{{ga|Red}} and {{ga|Leaf}}, in their Generation III designs, wear them on their backpack straps.
**In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], Pokémon Trainer has a Vs. Seeker, as his design is based on Red.
**Red's Vs. Seeker still appears on his Generation IV sprite.
*The [[PokéNav]] and the Vs. Seeker resemble each other somewhat, and also both serve the purpose of allowing players to rechallenge Trainers they previously battled. They are also found in counterpart regions.

Differences between the Pokémon games and animated series

2009-11-18T20:25:54Z

Adwajr:

[[File:Pokemon Eggs.jpg|thumb|200px|Pokémon eggs as seen in the anime]]
The [[Pokémon anime]] can often differ to the [[Pokémon games]]. While the games tend to dictate the venues and main events that occur within the anime, and tend to correspond on basic information, there are many noticeable differences or contradictions that can be seen between the two medias.

==Most notable differences==
* Pokémon with colors different from their normal or {{shiny2}} ones appear in the anime, though Pokémon with the official shiny colors do appear.
* [[Pokémon egg|Eggs]] have a different appearance depending on the Pokémon species that is inside of the egg. This is debatable however, due to the appearance of differently colored eggs in the [[Generation II]] instruction manuals. An example of this would most notably be {{TP|Misty|Togepi's|Togetic}} egg's blue and red triangles, mimicking {{p|Togepi}}'s physical appearance.
**This was probably not included in the game due to an attempt to save memory space.
[[File:Buneary Contest.jpg|thumb|200px|Contests are different in the anime from the games.]]
* In the anime, [[Pokémon Trainer]]s are not forced to wait for the other Pokémon to make a move.
* Pokémon can have more than four moves in the anime, and are not required to forget an old move in order to learn a new one (although some of the moves a Pokémon is shown using when first introduced will generally fall into disuse as the Pokémon learns more powerful moves as the series continues).
* [[Egg moves]], which a Pokémon has to be bred (and therefore born) with are able to be picked up naturally as the Pokémon grows (the most obvious example being [[Ash's Pikachu]] learning {{m|Volt Tackle}} 423 episodes after its first appearance).
* The [[Pokémon League]]s feature a [[Pokémon League Conference|tournament]] rather than a just battling five trainers straight to become Champion. Trainers may just also challenge the current Champion, as seen in several of [[Cynthia]]'s battles in the anime.
* In the anime, there can be more than the 8 usual [[Gym]]s in each [[region]].
* Multiples of each [[legendary Pokémon]] have been sighted. In the games, it's only one per game. This also states that the legendary Pokémon in the anime have the ability to [[Pokémon breeding|breed]], contrary to the games.
**However, game canon seems to imply that more exist, but the player only ever encounters one, while breeding in captivity, rather than the wild, may be awkward for legendaries much as it is for some species of animal, such as {{wp|echidna}}s or {{wp|panda}}s.
* [[Starter Pokémon]] can be found in the wild in the anime. In the games, players can only receive one from the regional professor. They must [[trade]] to obtain others.
* In battles in the anime, moves can be used together to make a totally [[Moves not in the Pokémon games|new move]].
* In the anime, characters change their clothes when they go swimming. However, when a player {{m|Dive|dives underwater}} in the games, the player is still wearing their normal outfit.
* In the anime, [[Pokémon contests]] have an appeal round where contestants show off a combination of moves, while in the games, there isn't one. The second round is different as well. Contestants battle each other in the anime while in the games, contestants show off only one move to the judge and are able to affect the other contestants' Pokémon (Hoenn Contest only).
* In the anime, the Trainer can order their Pokémon to dodge attacks, regardless of the accuracy of that move in the games. Additionally moves that normally cannot miss in the games, such as {{m|Swift}}, {{m|Shock Wave}} and {{m|Aerial Ace}}, can miss.
* [[HM]]s are shown as regular moves in the anime, yet they are not used as tools for certain situations like in the games.
* [[TM]]s do not seem to exist. Instead, TM-exclusive moves must be taught to the Pokémon over a period of time.
* Locations are not the same between the anime and the game. Multiple locations are added to [[region]]s to carry out plots in the anime.
* Regular [[Poké Ball]]s are generally used to catch Pokémon. In the games Pokémon Trainers use different kinds of Poké Balls to catch Pokémon. The only other Poké Ball types seen in the anime were the Lure Ball, Fast Ball, Heavy Ball, and Master Ball.
[[File:Bulbasaur Whirlwind.PNG|thumb|200px|{{p|Bulbasaur}} cannot learn {{m|Whirlwind}} in the games.]]
* Occasionally the anime shows Pokémon using moves they cannot learn in the games, such as [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] using {{m|Whirlwind}} in its first appearance.
* Pokémon using a technique that normally cannot affect the enemy Pokémon's type in the games, such as with {{AP|Pikachu}} most notably who had occasionally been able to affect {{type2|Ground}}s with Electric attacks which it can't do in the games.
* Like people, Pokémon can be worn out from constant battling and eventually collapse from exhaustion which is something that can't happen in the games. However, a Pokémon that runs out of [[PP]] in every move can faint from the [[recoil]] damage of {{m|Struggle}}.
* Official Gym and League battles set limits on how many Pokémon a Trainer can use to fight with, whereas in the games only facilities like the [[Battle Tower]] set limits.
* All official Pokémon Trainer battles in the anime have a judge, who sets the rules and referees the battle, and is able to declare when a Pokémon is unable to battle which would eliminate that Pokémon from the match. In the games however, aside from a battle facility match, any Pokémon that fainted can be revived and used again in battle as long as the Trainer has at least one Pokémon left.
* Pokémon have the right to decide if they want to evolve, and can choose if they don't want to evolve, where in the games the Pokémon only evolves when the player wishes it to. Notable examples are Ash's Pikachu and Bulbasaur, {{MTR}} of [[Team Rocket]], and [[Dawn's Piplup]].
* Pokémon in the anime occasionally undergo changes in their personality when they evolve. In the games, their [[Nature|personality]] remains the same after evolution.
* In the anime, some Pokémon that have been recently captured or evolved disobey their Trainer until that Trainer is able to find a way to get through to them with the prime example being [[Ash's Charizard]]. In the games only traded Pokémon disobey their Trainer until Badges that can neutralize this problem are acquired.
* It is possible in the anime to render moves harmless in an unorthodox way which is not possible in the games. Sometimes this is used to counter type disadvantages. One example is with Ash's Pikachu during its battle against [[Winona]]'s {{p|Pelipper}}, where Pelipper used {{m|Steel Wing}} to attract Pikachu's electricity and divert it into the ground to render it useless.
* The {{pkmn|cry|cries}} in the regular games differ significantly from the cries in the anime. An exception is {{p|Pikachu}} in {{game|Yellow}}, which actually says its name when interacted with or when called into battle.

List of clothing (anime)

2009-11-02T10:24:01Z

Adwajr: /* {{an|Dawn}} */

{{bad picture|article|Nearly all the ones in the every gallery}}

<div style="float: right; margin: 0 0 1.0em 1.0em;">__TOC__</div>
In the [[Pokémon anime]], while the main characters will generally wear a single outfit for several seasons, they have changed outfits from time to time and, at the start of a new saga, changed their main outfit entirely. This is a list of the different clothing and outfits worn by the main characters.

=={{Ash}}==
===Main outfits===
All of Ash's main outfits are highlighted by his {{AP|hat}}. They often strongly feature the colors red and blue, along with black, white, green and golden yellow. These are primary and bold colors, accenting Ash's primary status in the series.
====Original series====
[[Image:Anime Ash.png|thumb|left|120px|Ash's first outfit]]
One of the curious notes about Ash's first outfit is that, unlike {{an|May}} and {{an|Dawn}}, while it is clear his clothing is directly inspired by {{ga|Red}}'s, it is a unique outfit design in its own right. This fact is also echoed by the outfits of [[Brock]] and [[Misty]], which were designed purely for the {{pkmn|anime}} instead of using the outfits seen in the games themselves and the artwork for the games.

The outfit is a blue and white jacket with gold trim worn open over a black t-shirt with jeans, sneakers, green fingerless gloves, and of course [[Ash's hat]]. The only part of the outfit with a known story behind it is the hat, which Ash won from a contest from the [[Pokémon League]]. However, other parts of the outfit are notable for practical reasons: Ash kept his [[Kanto]] and [[Orange League]] [[badge]]s pinned to the inside of the jacket, and hung his [[Poké Ball]]s from his belt.

Ash wore this outfit from ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' to ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]''.
 

====''Advanced Generation'' series====
[[Image:SatoshiAG.png|thumb|left|80px|Ash's second outfit]]
Ash's second outfit was the first alternate main outfit to be seen on any character, and by default, the least expected. Brock and Misty's second outfits would not debut until several episodes after Ash's did.

Along with a new hat, Ash wore a hoodie instead of a jacket, black gloves instead of green, and new pants and sneakers. He also started wearing a new backpack. This time, however, he keeps the hoodie closed, possibly because he no longer keeps badges pinned to the inside.

All of his new clothes, however, bear a notable resemblance to his old clothes, probably to maintain his style and avoid confusion which would be caused by a completely new appearance. This becomes a common theme among all new outfits: they are new takes on the style on the former outfits.

The symbol on his hat and hoodie pocket reflect the [[Poké Ball]] symbols seen frequently in the [[Generation III]] games, particularly in the designs of the [[player character|main characters']] clothes. Ash's {{series|Advanced Generation}} outfit is similar to the one {{ga|Red}} wears in Generation III, most notably, his sleeves.

Ash wore this outfit from ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'' to ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]''.
 

====''Diamond & Pearl'' series====
[[Image:SatoshiDP.png|thumb|left|130px|Ash's third outfit]]
Based on the example set by the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, most fans were expecting Ash to wear a new outfit at the start of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}. Outfit changes are now accepted as routine if and when the anime changes sagas.

His third outfit takes a step back to his first outfit by wearing a jacket instead of a hoodie, and with colors closer to the original. It also has a white undershirt instead of black for a change, as well as a new hat, new pants, and new sneakers. His gloves appear to be the same as those from his second outfit. His backpack is new but, again, green. It should be noted that this new outfit is mostly based on that of {{ga|Lucas}}, the male player character from {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. The only differences are the hat designs, sneakers, backpack color, and the fact that Ash wears open fingered gloves but no scarf. It also bears traits of {{ga|Red}}'s outfit, mainly the white collar, though there is the fact he is now wearing a closed jacket, another similarity with Red's.

One of the most common complaints among fans about the outfit is the yellow stripe across Ash's chest. This is, considering its curve, apparently based on the lower half of the [[Poké Ball]] symbol which was seen on Ash's pocket in his second outfit. However, given how long it is now, it is more difficult to tell.

Ash started wearing this outfit in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]'', and is currently wearing it as of the latest Japanese episode.
 

===Side outfits===
====Formal clothes====
*Ash wore a {{wp|kimono}} to a summer festival in ''[[EP020|The Ghost of Maiden's Peak]]''.
*Ash and Brock don party outfits in ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''. Ash wears a bright orange {{wp|tuxedo (clothing)|tuxedo}} with a frilled shirt and orange {{wp|bowler hat}}.
*Ash fantasizes about wearing a blue tuxedo for a movie premier in ''[[EP070|Go West Young Meowth]]''.
*In ''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', the characters dress up in formal medieval-themed outfits. Ash wore an outfit based directly on that of [[Sir Aaron]]: a blue {{wp|tunic}} over a gray long-sleeved shirt and gray pants, matched with blue gloves and boots and a teal hat and hooded {{wp|cape}}.
*In the [[Wallace Cup]], Ash wore a fedora hat and a tuxedo.

====Weather clothes====
=====Swimwear=====
*Ash's most common swimwear in the Kanto and Johto seasons is a pair of green trunks with yellow stripes going down the side. Virtually every episode in the Kanto and Johto series where he swims, he is in this swimsuit.
*Ash changes to a different swimsuit along with his clothing in the ''Advanced Generation'' series. He has orange trunks with a green and yellow double stripe going down his left side. The same pattern is much smaller on the right, appearing only on the waistband. This actually appeared once before, in ''[[EP067|The Pi-Kahuna]]'', but the swimsuit itself didn't make frequent appearances until Ash's adventures in Hoenn.
*In the ''Diamond & Pearl'' series, Ash is in red trunks with a light blue line at the bottom. Like the orange swimsuit, this actually appeared once before, in ''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', but didn't appear frequently until the ''Diamond & Pearl'' series.
*A swimsuit similar to his Kanto/Johto one was seen in ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', but it was two-shaded blue (dark on top and lighter on bottom) with white stripes instead of yellow down the sides.

=====Snow wear=====
[[File:Ash snow pt.png|thumb|Ash's jacket|left|260px]]
*Ash wore a red jacket and olive pants in ''[[AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!]]''.
*Ash wore a jacket similar to {{ga|Lucas}}'s Platinum jacket starting in [[DP125]].

====Other clothes====
*Ash has a pair of green and yellow pajamas that he wears whenever he sleeps. It was first seen in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' when he ran to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] in it. This clothing stays with him from Kanto to Sinnoh. When he sleeps, he removes his hat.
*He also wore a cow suit in ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]''.
*Ash also had an orange and white dress with red Mary-Janes that he had to wear to get into [[Celadon Gym|Erika's gym]]. The outfit was worn with a blonde wig with a large pink bow in it. When wearing this outfit, he went by the name "[[Ashley]]". The wig was destroyed when Pikachu electrocuted him, but it is unknown what happened to the dress and shoes afterwards. It is possible he still has them. This is the first of three times that he crossdressed (albeit unwillingly).
*Ash also wore a medieval themed outfit for [[DJ Mary]]'s radio show in ''[[EP160|Air Time!]]''. It was a long blue shirt with light gray tights. He also wore a green cap similar to the signature one of {{wp|Robin Hood}}.
*A running gag in the series, where Ash's mother reminds him to change his underwear everyday, actually appeared several times, most notably in the Christmas special ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'' where Ash went swimming in his blue and white striped boxers.
*In ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'', Ash is seen in his new blue boxers.
*In ''[[EP133|Tanks a Lot!]]'', Ash wore army clothing.
*In ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]'', Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} wore Hawaiian-styled clothing.
*In [[DP138]], a flashback of Ash when he was younger shows him wearing a yellow shirt with a red stripe and blue shorts.

==[[Misty]]==
===Main outfits===
All of Misty's main outfits feature the colors yellow, red, and blue.
[[File:MistyOutfit1.png|thumb|left|150px|Misty's first outfit]]
[[File:Misty AG.png|thumb|right|Misty's outfit in the ''Advance Generation'' series]]
====Original series====
Misty's first outfit, and her best known, is a yellow crop top and short jean shorts held up with red suspenders. Her entire midriff is revealed here. She wore red and white sneakers with it, and also carried a red draw-string bag with it.

This outfit also debuted her hairstyle, which is typically the way she always wears it, regardless of her outfit: a small side ponytail. She will occasionally take it down, but usually only if she is sleeping, bathing, or wearing a formal outfit of some sort. With her mermaid outfit, she wears it down with long hair extensions and pearl ornaments.

Misty wore this outfit from ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' to ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'' (and continuing into the first three of four ''Pokémon Chronicles'' episodes she was in).

====''Advanced Generation'' series====
Misty's second outfit is a yellow sleeveless top or vest with a large blue button on the front and matching shorts, worn over some sort of dark-red under-all (swimsuit or leotard, etc.). She wears it with short orange boots. The few times she carries a backpack with it, it is a small backpack designed to look like a {{p|Spheal}}.

Misty started wearing this outfit in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]''. She is also seen wearing this outfit in the special episode ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', but she was carrying a pink bag.
 

====''Pokémon Chronicles'' series====
In the early episodes of Pokémon Chronicles involving Misty (''[[H002|Cerulean Blues]], [[H005|The Blue Badge of Courage]], [[H011|A Date with Delcatty]],''), she wears her Original Series outfit. However, in ''[[H016|Luvdisc is a Many Splendored Thing]]'' (which was broadcast ''after'' the debut of her AG ensemble), she wears a new "casual" outfit: a sleeveless yellow top with a hood, slightly longer and looser blue shorts, a small white belt with a pink buckle, and reddish-brown penny loafer shoes worn with white socks.

====''Diamond & Pearl'' series====
Misty has not yet appeared in the {{series|Diamond and Pearl}}.

===Side outfits===
====Formal clothes====
[[Image:Misty Kimono Girl1.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Misty in her pink kimono]]
*Misty wears a {{wp|yukata}} to a summer festival in ''[[EP020|The Ghost of Maiden's Peak]]''. It appears again in the fourth ending theme, ''[[Pokémon Ondo]]''.
*Misty wears a stage dress designed to look like {{p|Goldeen}} in ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''.
*Misty wears a pink {{wp|kimono}} for the Princess festival in ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]''.
*Misty fantasizes about wearing a red dress for a movie premier in ''[[EP070|Go West Young Meowth]]''.

====Weather clothes====
=====Swimwear=====
*Misty's most common swimwear is a red bikini, seen worn in ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]'', ''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]'', ''[[EP031|Dig Those Diglett!]]'', ''[[EP068|The Evolution Solution]]'', and ''[[EP142|A Shadow of a Drought]]''.
*Misty fantasizes about sunbathing in a pink bikini in ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]''.
*Misty wears a yellow bikini with a skirt and a red star on the top in ''[[EP067|The Pi-Kahuna]]''.
*Misty wears a green and white striped bikini in ''[[H002|Cerulean Blues]]''.

====Other clothes====
*Misty wears a pink blouse and a long, brown skirt in her France fantasy in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]''.
*Misty wears a red shirt with a pink jacket featuring green and yellow stripes as part of [[Team Rocket]]'s makeover in ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]''.
*Misty donned a Team Rocket outfit in the second half of ''[[EP037|Ditto's Mysterious Mansion]]''.
*Misty wore a [[Nurse Joy]] outfit while helping out at the clinic in ''[[EP047|A Chansey Operation]]''.

*She wore a red and pink dress with long red tights in ''[[EP160|Air Time!]]''. One of the sleeves jutted out, which she used as a perch for {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} to sit on.
*Misty wore an army attire in ''[[EP133|Tanks A Lot!]]''.
* A flashback in ''[[H002|Cerulean Blues!]]'' showed Misty as a baby, wearing a sky-blue shirt and yellow diaper.

==[[Brock]]==
===Main outfits===
Brock's main outfits contain different shades of the earthy colors green, brown and orange.
[[Image:Brock-side.jpg|thumb|left|80px|Brock's original series outfit]]
[[Image:TakeshiAG.png|thumb|right|120px|Brock's ''Advanced Generation'' series outfit]]
====Original series====
One of the most distinct features of Brock's first outfit was his green vest, which had four large pockets on the front. He wore this over an orange short-sleeved shirt, along with brown pants and blue and white sneakers. On either side of his belt, which was black with a gold rectangular buckle, he had attached brown belt pockets.
With it, he carried a large blue backpack with a bedroll seen strapped to it at the top.

Assumably, he keeps many supplies in his many pockets, just as he tends to fill his bag with more supplies than it should be realistically able to hold. However, he has never been seen reaching into these pockets, so their contents remain unknown. The numerous pockets in this outfit were seen in all of his outfits.

Brock wore this outfit from ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' to ''[[H001|A Family That Battles Together, Stays Together!]]''.

====''Advanced Generation'' series====
In the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, Brock wore a brown jacket with an orange collar. Under it, he wore a green undershirt, but he no longer wears a belt.

Brock wore this outfit from ''[[H001|A Family That Battles Together, Stays Together!]]'' to ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is]]''.

====''Diamond & Pearl'' series====
Brock's {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} outfit is one step closer to his original series outfit. He wears a vest again, but the colors are reversed. Instead of a green vest and an orange shirt, he wears an orange vest (which also consists of gray) and a green shirt.

Brock started wearing this outfit in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', and is currently wearing it as of the latest Japanese episode.
 

===Side outfits===
====Formal clothes====
[[Image:TakeshiDP.png|thumb|right|120px|Brock's Diamond & Pearl outfit]]
*Ash and Brock don party outfits in ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''. Brock wears a white outfit with large pink frills on the sleeves and pant cuffs. He holds a pair of {{wp|maraca}}s with it.
*Brock fantasizes about wearing a blue {{wp|tuxedo (clothing)|tuxedo}} for a movie premier in ''[[EP070|Go West Young Meowth]]''.
*One of Brock's best known outfits is his ''"[[Takeshi's Paradise]]"'' outfit. This was possibly inspired by his outfit in ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''. It is similar in many ways, particularly the pink frills. However, this outfit is purple and red instead of white. Also, he wears a large {{wp|sombrero}} with it, and his {{wp|maraca}}s now look like [[Poké Ball]]s. He wore a similar outfit in ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]''
*Brock wears a white tuxedo in ''[[EP169|Beauty and the Breeder]]''. He is seen in it again in [[Temacu]]'s wedding fantasy in ''[[EP198|The Heartbreak of Brock]]'' with a rose tucked in the breast pocket.
*Misty and Brock both wore special outfits for the [[Weekly Pokémon Broadcasting Station]]. Brock's outfit is a lime green tuxedo with an oversized sparkling pink {{wp|bow tie}}.
*Brock wears a purple {{wp|suit (clothing)|suit}} in fantasies in ''[[AG117|Berry, Berry Interesting]]'' and ''[[AG141|Hail to the Chef]]''. For some reason, these fantasies also always involve Brock's woman of choice in a red dress with a white hair accessory, and drinking milk from a wine glass. However, the suit itself is variable; in the first episode, he wears it with a {{wp|necktie|tie}}, and in the second, with a bow tie.
*In ''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', the characters dress up in formal medieval-themed outfits. Brock wears a beige robe similar to that of a priest covered by some sort of {{wp|cape}} or {{wp|mantle}} in brown, green, orange, and trimmed with gold, all topped with an orange {{wp|cap|skullcap}}.

====Weather clothes====
=====Swimwear=====
[[File:Brock snow pt.png|thumb|Brock's jacket|left|270px]]
*Brock usually wears light purple swim trunks with three dark blue diamonds on the sides. In Advanced Generation onwards, these are colored as dark purple, due to the different palette.
*In the hotspring scene in ''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', he wears a different pair of swim trunks that are olive green with an orange stripe down the side. However, this is only known from artwork since in the scene itself, nothing below Brock's neck is ever seen above water.
**He wore these same swimtrunks in ''[[DP047|Sandshrew's Locker!]]''.

=====Snow wear=====
*Brock wore a red jacket and olive pants in ''[[AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!]]''.
*Brock wore a jacket similar to {{ga|Lucas}}'s in Platinum starting in [[DP125]].

====Other clothes====
*One of Brock's best known accessories is his pink frilly {{wp|apron}}. He frequently wears it while cooking or doing other chores.
*He also wears an alternate apron, known as the "movie apron" since it is only seen in the [[Pokémon movie]]s. This apron is bright blue with neon green straps.
*He wore a long, blue, medieval-themed robe for [[DJ Mary]]'s radio show in ''[[EP160|Air Time!]]''.
*He wore army attire in ''[[EP133|Tanks A Lot!]]'' when they had a plan to rescue Pikachu and others.
*He wore a stylish outfit with a matching cap in ''[[DP095|Battling The Generation Gap!]]''.

=={{Tracey}}==
===Main outfit===
[[Image:Tracey Sketchit.png|thumb|left|Tracey's main outfit.]]
Tracey has only had one main outfit throughout the entire series. It consists of a loose green {{wp|T-shirt}}, reddish-brown shorts, blue and yellow sneakers, and his most notable accessory, a light red headband that he uses to keep his hair out of his face.
Tracey is the only main character from the original series whose outfit was not changed at the start of either of the newer series.

===Side outfits===
====Formal clothes====
====Weather clothes====

=====Swimwear=====
*His first swimsuit was simply a pair of navy-blue swim trunks as seen in ''[[EP092|The Joy of Pokémon]]''.
*The second was seen in ''[[EP108|Pokémon Double Trouble]]''. It is still a pair of navy blue swim trunks but with a sunflower print. He also removed his headband while in this outfit.
*The third was seen in ''[[H005|The Blue Badge of Courage]]''. It is yet another pair of blue swim trunks but with an orange stripe painted on the legs.

====Other clothes====
In ''[[H016|Luvdisc is a Many Splendored Thing]]'', {{an|Daisy}} fantasized Tracey playing the prince in her water ballet alongside Misty. This outfit consisted of a blue shirt with long sleeves and gold trimming, teal pants, a red cape, and a silver crown. This would be the second time he is seen without his headband.

=={{an|May}}==
===Main outfit===
[[Image:May Anime Artwork.png|110px|thumb|left|May's main outfit]]
====''Advanced Generation'' series====
May's main outfit is a red t-shirt with a dark blue circle around her neck, dark-blue shorts, white skirt, red and yellow sneakers, a red bandanna with a white Poké Ball print, and dark-blue and white gloves. It is based off of the outfit her {{ga|May|game counterpart}} wears in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}
[[Image:May2.JPG|right|thumb|200px|May in her Emerald outfit]]

====''Diamond & Pearl'' series====
Much like Ash and Brock changed clothes at the start of both the ''Advanced Generation'' and ''Diamond & Pearl'' series, and Misty did before her return in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]'', May changed clothes sometime between her departure in ''[[AG192|Home Is Where the Start Is]]'' and her return in ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over!]]'' Her outfit in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} is based off of the outfit that her {{ga|May|game counterpart}} wears in {{game|Emerald}}. It consists of a green bandanna, a red orange vest with a black collar, black bike shorts, black socks, and red and white sneakers. She also carries a green waistpack similar to the one she carried in the ''Advanced Generation'' series. When she got off the boat, she was seen with a yellow backpack. It is unknown if she normally carries this or only had it because she was traveling a long distance (to Sinnoh from Johto).

May wore this outfit as of her latest appearance, and presumably currently wears it.
 

===Side outfits===
[[Image:may dress.jpg|200px|thumb|right|May's Movie 8 Dress]]
====Formal clothes====
* In ''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', the characters dress up in formal medieval-themed outfits. May wears a white, pink and red {{wp|ball gown}} decorated with tiny bows and with a decoration similar to {{p|Beautifly}} wings on the back. She wears her hair in two different ways in this outfit, with different accessories for each: in one way, she wears a large pink bow styled to look like her regular {{wp|kerchief|bandanna}}, and another, she has little pink pom-poms in her hair.
[[Image:MayContest.PNG|thumb|215px|left|May at the Wallace Cup]]
* During the [[Wallace Cup]], May wore a new dress for the contest, which was unique because it had an Arabian style to it. It was a pink half shirt with a yellow heart on it with yellow border on the sleeves and neck. She also wore a peach veil with a green gem on top, and a peach long skirt with a piece of pink fabric at the waist. Her entire midriff is exposed here. She also wears brown flip-flops with toe rings and a yellow necklace with a red heart.

====Weather clothes====
=====Swimwear=====
*May's most common swimwear is the yellow hearts bikini. This was shown in ''[[AG019|Sharpedo Attack!]]'' and ''[[AG012|The Lotad Lowdown]]''.
*May also wore a pink polka dotted one piece swimsuit in ''[[AG019|Sharpedo Attack!]]''.

[[Image:HikariDP.png|thumb|left|125px|thumb|Dawn's main outfit]]
===Main outfit===
Dawn's outfit consists of a mini dress which is mostly black with a white undershirt inside a V-shaped neck with a short pink skirt. On her head, she wears a white beanie with a pink [[Poké Ball]] print on it. She also wears gold hair clips that hold up her hair in front. On her feet, she wears pink knee-high boots with black socks underneath. She also has a small yellow back pack with all her personal belongings. It is nearly identical to her {{ga|Dawn|game counterpart's}} with the exception of her scarf and bag.

===Side outfits===
====Formal clothes====
[[File:Dawn contest.png|205px|thumb|right|Dawn in her Contest dress]]
[[File:Dawn_DP146_contest.png|thumb|right|Dawn in her contest dress in the [[Suiren Town]] contest]]
Formal clothes are a key part of Dawn's wardrobe, since she dresses up nicely for all her [[Pokémon Contest]]s.
*In her [[DP001|debut appearance]], she was shown to be wearing three different formal outfits when imagining herself in contests with each of the Sinnoh starters.
*She frequently wears a pink dress during her contests. In the [[Floaroma Town]] contest, she decorated her dress with flowers, presumably to fit the town's flowery theme. In the [[Hearthome City]] contest, she added a yellow ribbon around her waist and her hair barrettes were star-shaped. The yellow ribbon was also seen in the [[Wallace Cup]] Opening and ending themes show her in different dresses, but she has never worn them in contests.
[[File:DawnCollection.PNG|thumb|Dawn in the Hearthome Collection|left]]
*In the [[Hearthome Collection]], she wore a plain white-blue dress with a yellow ribbon at the back. It also came along with a blue, beaded necklace and white shoes.

====Weather clothes====
=====Swimwear=====
*Dawn wore a yellow and orange bikini in ''[[DP047|Sandshrew's Locker!]]'' and ''[[DP063|Hot Springing a Leak!]]'', as well as in ''[[DP089|Up Close and Personable!]]''

=====Snow wear=====
*Dawn wore an outfit nearly identical to her {{ga|Dawn|game counterpart's}} in Platinum starting in [[DP125]]. The only difference is she maintains her gold barrettes rather than wearing pink ones.
[[Image:Dawn snow pt.png|thumb|270px|Dawn in her Platinum outfit]]

====Other clothes====
*The [[Pokémon Learning League]] website portrays Dawn with her white undershirt having sleeves that reach past her elbows, and black stockings or tights covering her legs.
*Dawn donned a pink cheerleading outfit in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched]]'' and again in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]''. Her Pokémon have similar outfits. The purpose of the outfit was to support [[Ash Ketchum]] in his gym battles with Roark and Maylene.
*Before leaving her home to start her journey, she was shown to have many clothes in the bag her mom asked her to leave behind.
*Dawn wore a French maid's outfit to help out at the [[Café Cabin]] in ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]''.
*In ''[[DP043|Malice in Wonderland]]'' she wore a {{p|Piplup}} costume in her dream.
*One point of the end credits of ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]'' features shots of Dawn in a number of different outfits.
*Whenever she's sleeping, Dawn wears pink pajamas, first seen in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]''.
*Dawn wears a long pink nightgown at the start of ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]''.

==[[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}}==
[[Image:TeamRocketAnime.png|thumb|left|Team Rocket's main outfits.]]
===Main outfits===
Jessie and James are usually found in the same outfit at all times: their white [[Team Rocket uniform]]s. There has been some question about the position or rank denoted by these uniforms, since most [[Rocket Grunt]]s wear a black uniform of similar design. However, in ''[[EP231|Dues and Don'ts]], it was revealed that Jessie and James designed their own uniforms to "express their sense of style." Jessie and James have only been seen wearing a different color uniform in ''[[H012|Training Daze]]'', where they (along with the other trainees) wear dark red. They also wore the black uniforms once.

Meowth, being a Pokémon, has no main outfit and is seen most often not wearing any clothing. However, he does have a fairly notable list of side outfits which he's worn alongside Jessie and James.

===Side outfits===
====Disguises====
{{main|List of Team Rocket's disguises}}
Frequently, when they are not wearing their Team Rocket uniforms, they are most likely wearing something as a [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguise]] to fool the [[twerp]]s. These range from very elaborate to very simple outfits, all of which have fooled Ash and {{Ashfr|his friends}} with similar success.

Several of these disguises are posing as other characters, such as [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]]. [[Brock]] is usually the best at telling these disguises from the actual women, whether he is aware of it or not.

====Formal clothes====
*In ''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', the characters dress up in formal medieval-themed outfits. Jessie and James looked possibly the most out of place, perhaps as a tongue-in-cheek joke, wearing extravagant outfits based more on the {{wp|Victorian fashion|Victorian era}} than medieval times. Meowth, on the other hand, wore one of the most well-known of medieval outfits, a {{wp|armour|suit of armor}}.
*Whenever she competes in [[Pokémon Super Contest]]s, Jessie wears a large orange dress with light brown boots, with round yellow and orange glasses and her hair in pigtails, under the name Jessalina (Japanese: キャンディ・ムサリーナ ''Candy Musalina'').

====Weather clothes====
=====Swimwear=====
*Jessie and James ''both'' wore two-piece bikinis in ''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]''. James wore his with giant inflatable breasts. These swimsuits were never seen in the English dub, since the scene containing them was cut.
*Jessie and James also both wore swimsuits in ''[[DP013|A Staravia is Born!]]''. Jessie wore a blue bikini and James wore a blue Speedo. They both had the 'R' logo on them.
=====Snow wear=====
*Team Rocket wore green jackets and pants in ''[[AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!]]''.

Pokédex

2009-10-30T16:14:39Z

Adwajr: Undo revision 911085 by AshXDawn (Talk)

{{Redirect|Zukan|Japanese figures named after the Pokédex|Pokémon Zukan figures}}
----
[[Image:Ash's Pokedex.png|right|250px|thumb|Ash's Sinnoh Pokédex]]
A '''Pokédex''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン{{tt|図鑑|ずかん}}''' ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia'') is an invaluable tool to a {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the [[Pokémon world]]. It gives information about all [[Pokémon]] in the world that are contained in its database. In the {{pkmn|games}}, it lists the number of Pokémon seen and {{pkmn2|caught}}. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, simply pointing it at a target Pokémon will give someone the Pokédex entry for that Pokémon. In both the anime and [[Pokémon Special]], the Pokédex also confers all the information shown by the interface in the games; that is, a Pokédex can display a Pokémon's [[stat]]s, [[level]], and [[move]]s.

Another function of the Pokédex is that it is immune to most forms of outside interference from stimuli such as water, fire or electricity, as seen in [[EP061|''The Misty Mermaid'']], in the [[Generation III]] games where the player can go [[underwater]], and in ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]''. Pokédexes in the games, anime, and manga are not given to all trainers, but given to trainers of exceptional potential and skill. Just the same, anime Pokédexes take the place of the {{ga|trainer card}} in that they store the identification information of their owner. In the anime, {{Ash}} and {{Gary}} both received their Pokédexes from [[Professor Oak]], much like their game counterparts {{ga|Red}} and {{ga|Blue}}. Ash was notorious for using his Pokédex early in his journey in situations where he had no idea what was going on, and was just as notorious for always being behind Gary in Pokédex entries.

In the Pokémon continuity, the Pokédex was invented by Professor Oak. When a young [[Sam|"Sammy"]] Oak was accidentally warped to a future of his own time, {{Ash}} explains to him how the Pokédex works, unknowingly giving him an idea.

In ''[[EP066|The Evolution Solution]]'' it was mentioned that the Pokédex entries in Ash's Pokédex were written by [[Professor Westwood V]] of the [[Seafoam Islands]].

Pokédex entries are typically only two- or three-sentence bits of information about the Pokémon referred to. In some events it gives background information on the habitat or activities of this Pokémon in the wild; at other times it gives other bits of information on the Pokémon's history or anatomy. A typical entry would be one of {{p|Bulbasaur}}, which states:

"''A strange seed was planted on its back at birth. The plant sprouts and grows with this Pokémon.''"

To date, there have been five different numbering systems used: the [[National Pokédex]], and various [[Regional Pokédex]]es.
==Kanto (Generation I)==
[[Image:Generation_I_Pokedex.png|frame|right|The [[Generation I|first]]-generation Pokédex]]
The first version of the Pokédex, model number HANDY505, recorded data on the first 151 Pokémon, focusing on Pokémon mostly native to [[Kanto]]. It listed them in [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|number sequence]], and it recorded data on height, weight, number, [[species]], cry, and nesting area. However, in {{2v2|Red|Blue}}, Pokémon only found in [[Cerulean Cave]] and Pokémon found only by fishing would be listed as "Area Unknown". In {{game|Yellow}}, the option to print Pokédex entries using the [[Game Boy Printer]] was added.

[[Image:RBYPokedex.png|thumb|left|The main interface of the first Pokédex model]]

In the anime, the Pokédex model's program is referred to as Dexter, as well as the programs for most models of the Pokédex. When [[Misty]] got {{TP|Misty|Togepi|Togetic}}, Professor Oak updated this model with new software that included data on a handful of [[Johto]] Pokémon, and its voice gets redone (via a different reverb effect). Its Japanese voice actor is 三木眞一郎 ''[[Shin'ichirō Miki]]'' and its English voice actor is [[Eric Stuart]]. It also has the ability to identify a Pokémon's moveset, as shown when it identified all of the known moves that Misty's Psyduck can learn in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Pokémon Showdown!]]''.

The numbering of Pokémon in this generation is the same as those in the National Pokédex. Therefore, see the first 151 Pokémon of [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number]].
===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Kanto}}
{{Animedexbody|EP002|Dexter (Purpose)|Ash's Pokédex|I'm Dexter, a [[Pokédex]] programmed by [[Professor Oak]] for [[Pokémon Trainer]] {{Ash|Ash Ketchum}} of the town of [[Pallet Town|Pallet]]. My function is to provide Ash with information and advice regarding Pokémon and their {{pkmn|training}}. If lost or stolen, I cannot be replaced.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Kanto}}

==Johto (Generation II)==
[[Image:Johtodex.jpg|frame|right|The [[Generation II|second]]-generation Pokédex]]
[[Image:JohtoDex.png|thumb|left|Johto's Pokédex, as seen in {{game|Gold and Silver|s|Pokémon Gold}}]]
The second Pokédex, model HANDY808, had many improvements. Data on 251 species of Pokémon could be recorded. Pokémon could be listed in the Kanto (or National) order (referred to as the "Old Pokédex"), a [[List of Pokémon by Johto Dex number|new order]] focusing on Johto (referred to as the "New Pokédex"), or [[List of Pokémon by name|alphabetically by name]]. It also included an [[Unown Dex]] that can be unlocked by catching three different forms of {{p|Unown}}. A new search option allowed users to find specific Pokémon by [[type]]. Entries were expanded to include a Pokémon's [[footprint]] (if it had feet). Also, the design of this Pokédex is markedly similar to that of Nintendo's [[Game Boy]], Game Boy Pocket, and [[Game Boy Color]].

In the anime, its Japanese voice actor is 三木眞一郎 ''[[Shin'ichirō Miki]]'' and its English voice actor is [[Eric Stuart]].

For the numbering list introduced in this version of the Pokédex, see [[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number]].
 

==Hoenn==
[[Image:Pokedex Hoenn Region.png|frame|right|The [[Hoenn]] region's Pokédex]]
The third Pokédex could record data on [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Dex number|202 species of Pokémon]] native to the [[Hoenn]] region. An upgrade called the [[National Pokédex]] was unlocked if a trade with [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|Kanto]] was made in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, or if the [[Elite Four]] were defeated in {{v2|Emerald}}, which would allow 386 species to be recorded. Pokémon could also be listed by [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]] and [[List of Pokémon by height|size]]. The search option was expanded to include the first letter of a name, as well as [[List of Pokémon by color|color]] of the Pokémon. The most interesting addition was size charts that compared {{player|a pre-teen child}} to individual Pokémon in terms of height. This allowed Trainers to get a better idea of how large individual Pokémon were, which often conflicted with depictions in the anime. The print option was removed, however, as no Game Boy Printer was made for the Game Boy Advance.
[[Image:PokedexHoennView.png|thumb|left|Viewing the Hoenn Pokédex in {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Sapphire|s}}]]

In the anime, this Pokédex model's program is referred to as Dextette instead of Dexter, and it has a female voice to match. Its Japanese voice actress is 林原めぐみ ''[[Megumi Hayashibara]]'' and its English voice actress is [[Rachael Lillis]].

The Hoenn region Pokédex is markedly similar to the [[Game Boy Advance]], the console most of the [[Generation III]] games were played on.

For the numbering list introduced in this version of the Pokédex, see [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number]].
 

==Kanto (Generation III)==
[[Image:Pokedex_FRLG.png|thumb|160px|right|[[Kanto]] region's Pokédex]]
The fourth Pokédex, model HANDY909, could record data on 151 species of Pokémon native to the Kanto region. An upgrade called the National Dex was unlocked if the Elite Four were defeated and the player had caught 60 different Pokémon, which would allow 386 species to be recorded. In addition to the improvements made in the Hoenn version, Pokémon were all organized into [[List of Pokémon by habitat|habitat categories]], where similar Pokémon were typically listed together on the same pages (such as {{p|Jynx}} and {{p|Mr. Mime}}, for instance), and Pokémon who are [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|cross-generation evolutions]] are also displayed next to each other, such as {{p|Onix}} and {{p|Steelix}}. Nest display was also expanded to include the [[Sevii Islands]]. This Pokédex also has a toy model, which has Pokémon up to Generation III.
[[Image:FRLGdex.png|thumb|left|{{p|Pidgey}}'s entry in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon FireRed|s}}]]
In the anime, this model comes in both red and yellow. Its Japanese voice actor is 三木眞一郎 ''[[Shin'ichirō Miki]]'' and its English voice actors are [[Eric Stuart]] ([[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]]) and [[Bill Rogers]] ({{PUSA}}).

The Generation III Kanto Pokédex is markedly similar to the [[Game Boy Advance SP]], an upgraded version of the Game Boy Advance that was released the year before {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} were released in Japan.

For the regional Pokédex list, see the first 151 entries of [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number]].
 

==Sinnoh==
[[File:Sinnohdex.JPEG|thumb|170px|right|260px|[[Sinnoh]] region's Pokédex]]
The fifth Pokédex, model HANDY910is, can naturally record data on the 151 Pokémon native to [[Sinnoh]], with the National Dex upgrade allowing for the 493 Pokémon available to players of {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} to be recorded. Strangely, some of the Pokémon first encountered in [[Generation IV]] are not in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Dex number|Sinnoh Dex order]], such as the two new evolutions of {{p|Eevee}}. Nest display includes time of day as part of its functions now.

In the anime and [[Pokémon Special]] manga, it seems that the color of the Pokédex casing is customizable. {{an|Dawn}} has a pink one, {{Ash}} and {{Special|Platinum}} have a red one, {{Special|Diamond}} has a blue one, {{Special|Pearl}} has an orange one and [[Paul]] has a dark blue one. In [[DP148]], a Trainer by the name of [[Ruchiru]] was in ownership of a light blue Pokédex. The anime version lacks the dial on the side. This Pokédex also has a female voice. Its Japanese voice actresses are 川上とも子 ''[[Tomoko Kawakami]]'' and ''[[Satsuki Yukino]]'' and its English voice actress is [[Michele Knotz]].
[[File:Ash's dex.png|Scanning [[Dawn's Piplup|Piplup]]|thumb|left]]
[[File:Platinum National Pokédex.png|thumb|right|150px|{{p|Giratina}} in the Platinum National Pokédex]]
Its appearance is similar to that of the [[Nintendo DS]], and it may have a touchscreen as well. The placement of buttons and other features suggest it is based on its second version, the [[Nintendo DS Lite]].

For the numbering list introduced in this version of the Pokédex, see [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number]].

This Pokédex, as shown in the anime by [[Paul]], is able to scan a Poké Ball to see what moves the Pokémon inside it can use.

In the anime, it was also shown by {{an|Dawn}} to be able to identify moves like the Generation I Pokédex, as was the case with {{TP|Dawn|Dawn's Aipom's|Ambipom}} {{m|Double Hit}}.
===Platinum===
The sixth Pokédex, an expansion on the fifth, can naturally record data on 210 Pokémon, a majority native to Sinnoh, with the National Pokédex upgrade that allows for the recording of data on the 493 Pokémon known at this time.

This Pokédex, which is available to players of {{v2|Platinum}}, works similar to the ones in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}.
{{Clear-right}}

==Johto (Generation IV)==
[[File:PokéDex HGSS m.png|thumb|left|[[Johto]] region's Pokédex for males]]
[[File:HGSSpokedex.png|thumb|right|{{p|Mareep}} in the Generation IV Johto Pokédex]]
[[File:PokéDex HGSS f.png|thumb|left|[[Johto]] region's Pokédex for females]]
[[File:HGSS Pokédex anime.png|thumb|In the anime]]
The seventh Pokédex, like the fourth, has been given a redesign as the games return to an old region. While it is similar to the original Johto Pokédex when closed, there are many new features, such as a touch screen interface and a feature to list the separate locations of a Pokémon. In addition, the actual regional Pokédex numbers of the Pokémon are shown, instead of the National numbers when in regional mode. The listing also appears in a matrix style. This Pokédex can come in two colors: red for males, and pink for females.

For the regional Pokédex list, changed from the original games, see [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number]].

In the anime, both {{an|Kotone}} and [[Kazunari]] are in possession of this model. Although not shown in the games, their Pokédex comes with a stylus. Like its Generation II counterpart, it is voiced by ''[[Shin'ichirō Miki]]'' in Japanese.

==In the TCG==
This listing is of cards mentioning or featuring the Pokédex in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. The Hoenn region's model did not receive a TCG card, and the Generation I and Generation II Pokédexes, which featured model numbers on the Japanese card, did not show these model numbers on the English card.

==In Pokémon Special==
The Pokédex makes a signal when all three regional Pokédexes are close to each other. Another signal shows that they are being held by the correct owner, as seen in [[PS085]]. More usefully, they can display moves known by a Pokémon, and health that the Pokémon has, in a manner that looks identical to the battle screens in games. A feature included in {{game|Yellow}}, interacting with Pikachu to see its mood, was added to {{special|Red}}'s Pokédex. They can also be used to prevent a Pokémon from evolving. Trainers without a Pokédex have no choice in the matter.
==Trivia==
{{bad picture|section|Low resolution}}
[[Image:AshPokedex2.PNG|right|thumb|250px|Ash's original Pokédex]]
*For ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', [[Professor Oak]]'s lecture is about the Pokédex. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: こまったら　ひらいてみよう　ポケモンずかん ''Komattara hiraite miyō, Pokémon zukan.'' "When troubled, let's open the Pokédex."
*In [[Pokémon Super Contest]]s, there is a judge, who also serves as the {{wp|MC}}, named Dexter.
*Most of the Pokédexes appear similar to one of Nintendo's handhelds. The Johto Pokédex looks similar to a [[Game Boy Color]], the Hoenn Pokédex appears similar to the [[Game Boy Advance]], the Generation III Kanto Pokédex looks similar to a [[Game Boy Advance SP]], the Sinnoh Pokédex looks like a [[Nintendo DS Lite]], and the Generation IV Johto Pokédex looks like a [[Nintendo DSi]].
*The Pokédex is evidently encased in material that is invulnerable to almost anything within reason. It has been soaked in water and (in the anime) electrocuted and exposed to high-temperature flames, all with no ill effect. It is also voice-sensitive. There are some limitations to its ability; certain circumstances can prevent the Pokédex from accurately identifying its target:
**A Pokédex which has not received a [[National Pokédex|National Mode]] upgrade will not display any information on Pokémon not usually found in its home region, even if those Pokémon have been caught.
**In the anime, a Pokédex also can only identify the Pokémon itself, and not what appears to be where it is, as seen in [[EP020|The Ghost of Maiden’s Peak]] when {{p|Gastly}} uses illusions to scare {{Ash}} and his {{Ashfr|friends}}.
**Similarly, {{Gary}}’s Pokédex failed to identify {{an|Mewtwo}} at the [[Viridian Gym]], displaying only static interference. This may be attributed to the mechanical “focus/leech” battle armor Mewtwo was wearing at the time.
*All five of Ash’s Pokédexes have been red, as were the Pokédexes in the games prior to {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, while other characters have had other colors. May had a yellow one in Kanto, Paul has a dark blue Pokédex and Dawn has a pink Pokédex.
*Pokédex entries in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|LeafGreen|s}} are identical to those in {{2v2|Red|Blue}} for the {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}}, while those for {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed|s}} are identical to those from the original {{2v2|Red|Green}}. Likewise, FireRed's entries for {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} are identical to the entries found in {{game3|Gold and Silver|Silver|s}}, and the same is true of Pokémon LeafGreen and {{game3|Gold and Silver|Gold|s}}.
[[Image:Computer pokédex.jpg|Giovanni's computer|210px|thumb|left]]
*The Kanto regional Pokédex and the Sinnoh regional Pokédex ({{v2|Diamond and Pearl|s}}) have 151 members, the smallest of all regional Pokédexes. The largest regional Pokédex is the Johto regional Pokédex, with 256 members.
*In ''[[DP080|The Thief That Keeps On Thieving!]]'', [[Giovanni]]'s computer had a function similar to the Pokédex, scanning for what's inside the Poké Ball.
*The online Pokédex at [http://www.pokemon.com/Pokedex/flash.asp Pokémon.com] uses Pokédex entries from {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Diamond|s}}.
*[[James]] uses cards of Pokémon, rather than a Pokédex, to sometimes identify the Pokémon and the moves they can learn.
*The Pokédex models of [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}} rounded the weights of all Pokémon to full pounds except for {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Haunter}}, despite the Japanese games' use of tenths of kilograms since the start. From [[Generation III]] onward, all weights have been given to the nearest tenth of a pound.
*The Pokédex lost several buttons with every new model, due to various upgrades: Kanto's first model has twenty-two buttons, Johto’s original model has five, Kanto's second model, Hoenn's, and Sinnoh's only have three, and Johto’s second model apparently has none whatsoever, solely using the touch-screen interface.
* Numerous toy Pokédexes have been manufactured by companies like {{wp|Tiger Electronics}} and [[Jakks Pacific]].

Underground Path (Kanto Routes 7–8)

2009-10-30T16:09:11Z

Adwajr: /* Differences among generations */

}}

The '''Underground Path''' between [[Route 7]] and [[Route 8]] is located directly underneath [[Saffron City]] and terminates just to the east and to the west of Saffron City.

==Route description==
The path is a long, dark hallway that travels under Saffron. Despite the cave-like lighting of the path, there is no threat to be attacked by [[wild Pokémon]]. Occasionally, by using an [[Itemfinder]], items that trainers have dropped along the path can be found and retrieved.

In [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV|IV]], this path was closed due to vandalism.

==Items==
None, except for some items found using an Itemfinder:

*[[Ice Heal]]
*[[Antidote]]
*[[Burn Heal]]
*[[Awakening]]
*[[Parlyz Heal]]
*[[Potion]]

==Pokémon==
*None

==Differences among generations==
The only difference across all four generations was the removal of the Path as a playable area in Generation II an IV. The reason is explained in a note from the Celadon Police: ''"...Uncouth trainers have been holding battles in the Underground Path. Because of rising complaints by local residents, the Underground Pass has been sealed indefinitely."''

Legendary beasts

2009-10-21T17:45:36Z

Adwajr: /* Trivia */

[[File:Entei Raikou Suicune.png|thumb|right|300px|Raikou, Entei and Suicune]]The '''legendary beasts''' is the collective term used to refer to the [[Legendary trio|trio]] of {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Raikou}}, and {{p|Suicune}}. However, many still refer to them as '''legendary cats''' or '''legendary dogs''', depending on if they personally see feline or canine features in the individual Pokémon. Due to this disagreement, some circles have taken to humorously calling them ''legendary gerbils''.

The beasts are available in several of the Pokémon games, as opposed to their other legendary trio counterparts. The three (reduced to just Raikou and Entei in {{v2|Crystal}}) are available [[roaming Pokémon|roaming]] the wilds of [[Johto]] in [[Generation II]].

They appear in [[Generation III]] in [[Pokémon Colosseum]], where they are transformed into [[Shadow Pokémon]] by [[Cipher]] and owned by the admins [[Dakim]], [[Venus]], and [[Ein]]. They are also found in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, where one of the trio is roaming the [[Kanto]] region. The [[type]] of the one that happens to roam Kanto is the one that is [[super effective]] against the player's choice of a [[starter Pokémon]]. To be specific, Raikou appears to trainers who chose {{p|Squirtle}}, Entei to those who took In {{p|Bulbasaur}}, and Suicune to those who chose to go with {{p|Charmander}}.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 1|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] each of them is the boss of one of the three sacred fields, requiring the Clear Wing to enter this trial in the first place. After the player defeats Entei at [[Fiery Field]] the Clear Wing becomes the Red Wing, alowing access to Raikou's [[Lightning Field]], defeating it turns the Red Wing into the Silver Wing, Suicune can then be fought at [[Northwind Field]] and defeating it will change the Silver Wing into the Rainbow Wing allowing access to [[Mt. Faraway]] so the player can battle the beast's trio master, {{p|Ho-oh}}.

A direct counterpart to the [[legendary birds|Generation I trio]], the beasts find their [[trio master|master]] in {{p|Ho-Oh}}, who revived them when [[Ecruteak City]]'s [[Brass Tower]] burned. They are said to embody the three events that happened to the tower: the {{t|Electric|lightning}} that struck the tower, the {{t|fire}} that burned in the tower, and the {{t|Water|rain}} that put it out. It is speculated, however, that the three that Ho-Oh created are not the only members of their respective species. In ''[[Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'', [[Professor Oak]] speaks about the Suicune in question as if the Pokémon was only part of a species. Pokédex entries also state that an Entei is born every time a volcano erupts. In {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, an Entei statue was brought to life when the player completes all four challenges of the [[Jungle Relic]]. It was later captured by [[Gordor]], along with the other two beasts, showing that [[Fiore]] might have its own trio of beasts. Like the Generation I trio, they also all share the [[ability]] {{a|Pressure}}.

Of the three beasts, Suicune finds the most independence, appearing as a [[version mascot]] on the box art of {{v2|Crystal}}, and taking an expanded role in that game. Suicune also appears in ''[[Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'' as a protagonist, while Entei was the first of the three to have a movie appearance, in ''[[Spell of the Unown]]''. Raikou was delegated to a more minor role, appearing as the central character in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', where {{Jo|Jimmy}}, not {{Ash}}, encountered it. However, [[Misty's Togepi]] and a {{p|Houndoom}} did see the silhouette of a Raikou in ''[[EP180|Houndoom's Special Delivery]]''.

[[File:PokéGear HGSS m.png|thumb|right|Blue PokéGear in HeartGold and SoulSilver]]
[[File:PokéGear HGSS f.png|thumb|Pink PokéGear in HeartGold and SoulSilver]]
'''Pokémon Gear''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンギア''' ''Pokémon Gear''), or more commonly just '''PokéGear''' (Japanese: '''ポケギア''' ''PokéGear''), is an electronic device found in [[Johto]]. It looks like a large, advanced wristwatch with the [[Silph Co.]] logo on it, indicating who actually manufactured the product. It was first introduced in [[Generation II]]; the [[Hoenn]] region's analog to the PokéGear appears to be the [[PokéNav]], while the [[Sinnoh]] counterpart is the [[Pokétch]].

The PokéGear is an important tool for {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, some see it necessary to have one on a Trainer's adventure. The main character of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} receives a PokéGear from their mother at the start of their journey. The {{player}} is able to have access to the PokéGear by selecting it from the [[menu]]. At that, it is easy to navigate through the PokéGear by selecting through four different functions located at the top-left of the screen. It displays the map of the region, names of previously fought Trainers, and the current time. It also allows players to call registered Trainers. Certain functions need to be unlocked during the game by receiving special expansion cards.

The PokéGear returns in the Generation IV remakes, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. The interface has been completely redesigned, using both screens on the [[Nintendo DS]]. The top will always display the time function on the PokéGear, while the touch screen will display the other different functions of the PokéGear, as well as selecting other functions using the touch screen. The outer aesthetics of the PokéGear have changed abruptly as well. The whole PokéGear is a flip top, while the bottom section of the PokéGear is used to scan special expansion cards to upgrade it with other functions. Its color skin is changeable between blue, pink, a Team Rocket theme, a Japanese dojo theme, a Pokémon League theme, and teal-and-white with a Silph Co. theme.

==Functions==
The PokéGear's functionality comes from the several features and applications that can be installed in it, making it extensible. Many people are willing to give away special expansion cards to upgrade the PokéGear with other functions. In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, there are 4 available functions, two of which are included with the PokéGear. The rest are not available at the start but can be received at a later time.

===Time===
Included in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} with the PokéGear, the time function is the most basic feature. The PokéGear will {{wp|digital clock|digitally}} display the time of day using the {{wp|12-hour clock|12-hour AM/PM format}} as well as the day of the week. It runs off of the time the {{player}} input at the beginning of the game.

A glitch in Gold and Silver will change the day if the functions are scrolled through; this was addressed in Crystal.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the time will always be displayed on the top screen of the DS. However, unlike in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the time is displayed using the {{wp|24-hour clock|24-hour format}} instead of the {{wp|12-hour clock|12-hour format}} and runs on the [[Nintendo DS]]'s internal clock, much like the Pokétch. There is also a wireless signal measurement next to the time.

</gallery>

===Map===
Obtained after the player receives a map card for the PokéGear after taking a tour of [[Cherrygrove City]] from the old man, the map function of the PokéGear acts as a [[Town Map]], displaying a map of [[Johto]] and later [[Kanto]] with cities, towns and other important landmarks. It is the most basic of the map devices used by {{player}}, and is the navigational item for all [[Generation II]] games.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the mechanics of the map remain the same, only to have several added features, including the ability to zoom in to display areas of interest, with certain locations having a small flavor text. There is another feature that allows the player to add notes and markings to different locations, to allow the player to make notes about each area about the Pokémon in the area, any [[Apricorn]] or [[Berry]] trees, any special buildings, [[TM]] locations or any other notes. These notes will appear on the top screen when the player highlights that specific area on the map. Like the Marking Map on the [[Pokétch]], it also displays the current locations of all [[roaming Pokémon|Pokémon that travel around Johto]], including {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Suicune}}.

===Phone===
[[Image:PokéGearPhone.png|thumb|right|The phone function in [[Generation II]]]]
[[File:HGSSPokéGearPhone.png|thumb|left|The phone function in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}]]
Included in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} with the PokéGear, the phone function on the PokéGear will function like a cellphone, allowing the user to make calls to people that they've traded phone numbers with. This allows the player to talk to other characters and learn information from them, such as battling tips or when rare Pokémon appear. The player can also store numbers of other important people, like their [[mom]], or [[Professor Elm]]. Mom will also ring every so often, telling the {{player}} about the money she has saved (if opted for by the player) and occasionally buys decorations for the [[bedroom]], or items such as {{DL|Potion|Super Potion}}s. The phone function has a memory bank that can save up to ten people on the phone.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the phone function makes a return, and will be used in the same way. The player will able to select a person to call from the touch screen, and be able to call them. It is also able to store many more numbers in its memory than the same function in Generation II. The player's [[mom]] will once again provide her unique money-saving services.

===Radio===
Obtained after the Radio Card is received from a quiz host at the [[Johto Radio Tower]], radio function allows music to be played like a radio. The PokéGear functions as a radio that allows the player to listen to the radio stations within the game being broadcast from [[Johto Radio Tower]]. This allows the player to get tips from [[Professor Oak]] and [[DJ Mary]] on Oak's Pokémon Talk, affect how active wild Pokémon are by playing Pokémon March or Pokémon Lullaby on the Pokémon Music station, or listen to the Lucky Channel to keep track of the [[Johto Radio Tower]]'s lottery promotion.

When the {{player}} travels into [[Kanto]] in Crystal, he/she will not receive a signal for the radio, and must obtain an EXPN Card to tune into certain stations in [[Kanto]]; this is obtained from someone at the [[Kanto Radio Tower]] after restoring the power to Kanto. In Gold and Silver, the EXPN Card is only required for the Poké Flute station.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the radio function makes a return, and is received in the same way it was in [[Generation II]]. Tuning can be done in two ways, moving the indicator around the globe using the stylus, or selecting one of the four radio stations. Similar radio stations appear. As in Crystal, the EXPN Card is required for all stations in Kanto.

==In the anime==
[[File:HGSS Pokegear anime.png|200px|right|thumb|Brock's PokéGear]]
In the anime, it is shown that the PokéGear has at least two designs, a black one and a white and pink one. Several characters in the anime own PokéGears:
* {{mov|Lisa}} lent hers to Ash so that he could keep in contact with Professor Oak in ''[[Spell of the Unown]]''.
* {{jo|Jimmy}}, {{jo|Marina}} and [[Vincent]] all own PokéGears. A plot point of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' is that it includes a tracking system to show where the other PokéGears currently are.
[[Image:PokeGear anime.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Misty's PokéGear]]
* [[Misty]] also owns one, so that she can keep in contact with [[The Sensational Sisters|her sisters]] at the [[Cerulean Gym]].
* {{an|Kotone}} owns the new version of the Pokégear, and she owns a pink model. Likewise, her friend [[Kazunari]] owns a blue model.
* [[Brock]] received his own PokéGear at the end of [[DP147]] when he was given one by [[Kazunari's father]].

Tower Tycoon (Trainer class)

2009-10-17T21:32:33Z

Adwajr: /* Appearance */

A '''Tower Tycoon''' (Japanese: '''タワータイクーン''' ''Tower Tycoon'') is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who presides over their region's [[Battle Tower]]. The Tower Tycoon will battle the [[Player character|challenger]] of the Tower at set intervals. As of [[Generation IV]], [[Salon Maiden Anabel|Anabel]] and [[Palmer]] are the only known Tower Tycoons (however, Anabel's title was changed to "'''Salon Maiden'''" in localizations).

'''Pokémon HeartGold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターハートゴールド''' ''Pocket Monsters Heartgold'') and '''Pokémon SoulSilver Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターソウルシルバー''' ''Pocket Monsters Soulsilver'') are paired [[Generation IV]] {{wp|video game remake|remake}}s of the [[Generation II]] games {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.

Much like {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} revisited the [[Generation I]] story of [[Kanto]], HeartGold and SoulSilver retell the story of [[Johto]], with the player's starting area being [[New Bark Town]]. While the games feature several expansions in key areas, the overall plot follows the same direction as the original {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}. Some aspects exclusive to {{v2|Crystal}} are also included. Like FireRed and LeafGreen could link up with {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} to complete the Pokédex by trading regionally exclusive Pokémon, HeartGold and SoulSilver can link up with {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to obtain Pokémon unavailable in Johto and Kanto, such as {{p|Turtwig}}.

{{ga|Kris}}, despite being the female counterpart of Crystal's player character {{ga|Gold}}, is not included as the female player character, with a {{ga|Kotone|new character}} instead taking her place. Whether she is chosen to be the [[player character]] or not, she will still appear in the game, taking a pseudo-[[rival]] role similar to the unselected characters of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Ruby, Sapphire]], {{v2|Emerald}}, {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.

The games were released on September 12, 2009 in Japan, and are scheduled to be released in spring of 2010 in North America and Europe. The Japanese release date is the same day that {{game|Yellow}} was released in 1998.

==Changes from Pokémon Gold and Silver==
===Aesthetic changes===
* {{ga|Gold}} receives a redesign while {{ga|Kotone|a new player character}} replaces {{ga|Kris}}.
* All the game's music is rearranged to better utilize the DS's sound capabilities. A key item allows the player to switch back and forth freely between the arranged soundtrack and original chiptune soundtrack.
* The [[PokéGear]] has been redesigned. There are a range of skins that can be used and changed at the player's will.
* Much like Kanto's was for its remakes, Johto's Pokédex has been redesigned. Unlike Kanto's remakes, which contained the same [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|regional Pokédex]] as the originals, [[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number|the original regional Pokédex]] for Johto has been [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|slightly altered]], including several [[Generation IV]] evolutions for Pokémon found in Johto.
* An image of certain locations, similar to that of {{v2|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, appears when entering the location. Some of these images change depending on the time of day while others change the image of the Pokémon obtainable at the location on the image at random.
* [[Team Rocket Grunt]]s are redesigned once again.
* [[Rocket Executive]]s are also redesigned from Generation II, with four new ones appearing: [[Apollo]], [[Athena]], [[Lambda]], and {{OBP|Lance|Team Rocket}}. Like [[Team Galactic]]'s [[Commander]]s followed a planetary naming scheme, the Rocket Executives are all named for real-world spacecraft.
* {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}} each have their own unique battle music, while the [[legendary beasts]] each use differently remixed versions of their battle theme from {{game|Crystal}}.
* [[Kurt]] and [[Apricorn]]s make a return to the series along with their respective [[Poké Ball]]s. Apricorns can now be carried by the player in their own [[bag]] with a new item, the [[Apricorn Case]].
* All former Berry trees have become [[Apricorn]] trees.
* [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Elite Four]] members, {{ga|Silver}}, and {{ga|Red}} have animated battle sprites and battle intros, as in {{v2|Platinum}}. Many [[Gym]]s have been redesigned as well, some with new puzzles.
* {{m|Rock Smash}}, previously a TM usable on the field in the originals, is now a full-fledged HM as it has been since Generation III. {{m|Defog}} loses its HM status to the returning {{m|Whirlpool}}.
* Ambient sound effects are used with greater frequency than in previous games; for example, running water and the player walking through grass will produce audible noises.
* The [[Magnet Train]]'s tracks can be seen overground in locations such as [[Route 32]].
* [[Pal Park]] is located where the closed [[Kanto Safari Zone]] once stood in [[Fuchsia City]].
* The [[Rage Candy Bar]] is now a [[key item]]. This is likely to prevent the player from trading it to {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, which does not have any item data for the Rage Candy Bar.

===Location changes===
* Elm's Lab has an upstairs level, where [[Professor Elm|the professor]] and his family live, his old house being occupied by Kotone/Hibiki and her/his family.
* Maps have been remade to match the design style used in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.
* The {{jo|Battle Tower}} west of [[Olivine City]], introduced in {{game|Crystal}}, returns, bringing with it the {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation IV}} introduced in Platinum.
* Two new routes, [[Route 47]] and [[Route 48]], are introduced near [[Cianwood City]]. They lead to a new [[Johto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]].
* [[Mt. Silver]] is much bigger and [[Viridian Forest]] is not cut down.
* [[Cerulean Cave]] and the [[Seafoam Islands]] remain as they were in Generation III (though [[Blaine]] still takes part of the Seafoam Islands), allowing the [[legendary Pokémon]] that live inside them to be battled. {{p|Moltres}}, formerly found in {{ka|Victory Road}} and [[Mt. Ember]], can be found in Mt. Silver.
* The [[Fighting Dojo]] in [[Saffron City]] takes a role similar to Sinnoh's [[Battleground]].

===Gameplay changes===
* All 493 Pokémon are capable of [[walking Pokémon|following players]] similar to [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Pikachu]] in {{v2|Yellow}}. [[Shiny Pokémon|Shininess]] is also retained. The player can interact with their Pokémon by pressing 'A', and can see how their Pokémon is feeling at the moment. In battle, like Yellow's Pikachu, they are sent out from the side of the screen, rather than from a Poké Ball, unless in certain situations, such as while riding the [[bicycle]] or going into a small space with a big Pokémon.
* Similarly to the event {{p|Shaymin}} and {{p|Regigigas}}'s effect on Platinum, the [[Pikachu-colored Pichu]] will unlock an event near the [[Ilex Forest]] [[Ilex Forest Shrine|Shrine]], where the [[Spiky-eared Pichu]] can be obtained.
* The [[Pokémon storage system]], [[bag]], [[party]] interface, and the screen that pops up when pressing the ''Start'' or ''X'' buttons in the previous games all use the Nintendo DS's touch screen.
* [[Legendary Pokémon]] from other regions can be caught in the games. {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} appear in SoulSilver and HeartGold, respectively, after the Elite Four, and {{p|Rayquaza}} can be caught in both games once the other members of [[weather trio|its trio]] are brought into the game. {{p|Latias}} (in HeartGold) or {{p|Latios}} (in SoulSilver) can be found roaming in [[Kanto]] later in the game.
* {{m|Headbutt}}ing trees to locate certain Pokémon makes its return. However, this time it can also be used to collect Pokémon from [[Hoenn]] and [[Sinnoh]] after the [[National Pokédex|National Dex]] is acquired.
* [[Cynthia]] makes an appearance in an event involving {{p|Arceus}}. This takes place in a new section of the [[Ruins of Alph]] named the [[Shinto Ruins]]. This event allows players to obtain either {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, or {{p|Giratina}} at level 1. The only way to obtain the Griseous Orb in this game is to choose Giratina during this event.
* The {{OBP|Gracidea|flower}} can be obtained in the flower shop in [[Goldenrod City]] by bringing any [[Nintendo event|event]] {{p|Shaymin}}.
* [[Eusine]], a major character from {{game|Crystal}} who was not in the original Gold and Silver, appears, as do other aspects originally featured in Crystal.
* A new sidequest, the [[Pokéthlon]], features ten mini-games that pit Pokémon in athletic competitions. Its system appears to be analogous to that of {{pkmn|Contests}} from previous games.
* Using the [[Apricorn Shaker]], Apricorns can now also be mixed into drinks that increase Pokémon's Pokéthlon stats.
* [[Berries]] can be grown portably using the [[Berry Planter]], where the [[Squirtbottle]] is controlled via the touch screen to water four Berries at a time. It is currently unknown where Berries can be obtained in the first place, but it appears that they do not grow on the trees where their Generation II counterparts were found, as those are used for growing Apricorns.
* The [[Running Shoes]] are obtained in [[Cherrygrove City]] and can be permanently selected using the touchscreen [[menu]]. The selected item (from pressing Y or SELECT in previous games) is also on the touchscreen. Two items can be selected as opposed to just one.
* The [[Radio Card]] for the Poké Gear is required to continue in the game - Whitney will not appear in her Gym until the player has the Radio Card.
* [[Starter Pokémon]] from [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]] can be collected from [[Professor Oak]] and [[Steven Stone]] once certain conditions are met.
* [[Photography|Commemorative photos]] can now be taken around Johto and Kanto with the player's partner Pokémon, team, [[Gym Leader]]s, and certain notable citizens.
* An {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive {{p|Celebi}} unlocks an encounter with former [[Team Rocket]] boss and Viridian Gym Leader [[Giovanni]]. Giovanni was mentioned repeatedly in the original Gold and Silver, but did not appear.

Like the [[GBA Wireless Adapter]] that came with FireRed and LeafGreen, a bonus is included with the purchase of HeartGold and SoulSilver: a [[Poké Ball]]-shaped {{wp|pedometer}} called the [[PokéWalker]] that has the capacity to link to the two games and hold a Pokémon. Storing a Pokémon in this manner increases its [[experience]] and [[happiness]] as the wearer walks. Other Pokémon can be captured in exclusive Pokéwalker-only areas and then transferred to the main game.

==Pokémon==
As in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, the primary Pokémon of the remakes are native to the Johto and Kanto regions. Due to advances in gameplay since the second generation, the regional Pokédex used in Gold and Silver (the [[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number|New Pokédex]]) has been updated to include those Pokémon which [[evolution|evolve]] upon learning a new [[move]]. Rather than simply excluding these evolutions (as {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} did with [[happiness]]-based evolutions), an improved [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto Dex]] was established with 256 Pokémon: five more than the New Pokédex.

Similarly to other recently released Pokémon games, Pokémon from outside the regional Pokédex can be captured after defeating the [[Elite Four]] and earning the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Dex]]. Pokémon native to Sinnoh and Hoenn can be found in various methods. [[Mass Outbreak|Swarms]] of Pokémon sometimes break out across the Johto and Kanto regions; oftentimes these are not native to either of the regions. Pokémon from other regions can be located by playing one of two special stations on the [[PokéGear]]'s radio function. There is a channel for Sinnoh Pokémon which plays only on Thursdays; the Hoenn channel only plays on Wednesdays. By having either of these programs turned on when in [[tall grass]] the chance of finding a foreign Pokémon increases. The [[Bug Catching Contest]] also hosts, from time to time, Hoenn and Sinnoh Pokémon. They will only appear on Thursdays and Saturdays. The [[Johto Safari Zone]]'s customization option also allows for the finding of Pokémon from other regions.

In an apparent attempt to remove reliance on [[Generation III]] cartridges, [[starter Pokémon]] of Kanto and Hoenn can be obtained late in the game from [[Professor Oak]] and [[Steven Stone]] respectively. Some [[legendary Pokémon]] which were not included in the [[Generation II]] games, such as {{p|Mewtwo}}, and the more recently released {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} can also be captured in HeartGold and SoulSilver, respectively.

As in all [[version|main series]] Pokémon game, there are a number of Pokémon which can be found in [[Version-exclusive Pokémon|one of the paired games, but not the other]]. A list of these Pokémon follows below.

==Trivia==
* These games mark the tenth anniversary since the release of the original {{2v|Gold|Silver}} for [[Game Boy Color]].
* As remakes, these games have been [[Pokémon Gold and Silver remake speculation|speculated]] since the release of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
* The games' engine seems to be based on that of {{game|Platinum}}. The reverse happened in [[Generation III]], where {{game|Emerald}} was based on FireRed and LeafGreen's engine.
* As {{2v2|Gold|Silver}} were considered sequels to {{2v2|Red|Green}}, HeartGold and SoulSilver are thus sequels to {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}.
** Like FireRed and LeafGreen, as well, HeartGold and SoulSilver implement features introduced in their namesakes' third version (though the only major change from Red and Green to [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue]] was the alteration of the [[catch rate]]s of several Pokémon, itself retained since Blue, whereas {{game|Crystal}} featured several notable differences).
* These games were released in Japan almost exactly one year after the Japanese release of {{game|Platinum}}, being released the day before the anniversary.
* The font used for the English titles of these games are different than the font that has been used since {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, while the Japanese logos are still in the same style used since those games. FireRed and LeafGreen also used a different font than the Hoenn games, however, it was still the same color.
** Additionally, the Ho-Oh crest shaped like a heart and Lugia soul are used in the English logos, while the fire and leaf that appear on FireRed and LeafGreen's Japanese logos were not used in the English release.
* These games mark the first time that the English versions were announced before the games themselves came out in Japan.
* Because of [[HM05]]'s conversion from {{m|Defog}} to {{m|Whirlpool}}, these games are the only games in which all available HMs teach damaging moves (both Defog and Flash, contained in HM05, prevented this in previous games).
* Unlike {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, most [[Trainer class]]es keep their DPPt sprites in battle.
* These are the first games in which major characters offer their Pokémon for a trade with the player, with [[Gym Leader]]s [[Brock]], [[Lt. Surge]], and [[Jasmine]] and [[Hoenn]]'s former champion [[Steven Stone]] offering Pokémon of their specialty type in exchange for another.
* Unlike how {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}'s intro was an updated version of the opening from {{2v2|Red|Green}}, HeartGold and SoulSilver have an entirely new intro, using none of the footage from the intro of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}. The intro however, uses some music that was in the original and the title screen displays 3D renders of Ho-Oh and Lugia in movement similar to the original title screens.
* HeartGold and SoulSilver include the [[Champion|champions]] from each of the paired versions: [[Blue (game)|Blue]] from {{2v2|Red|Green}}, [[Lance]] from {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, [[Steven Stone]] from {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, and [[Cynthia]] from {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}.
* The credits of HeartGold and SoulSilver are the first to feature [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Elite Four]] members and [[villainous teams|villainous team]] members.

The '''Viridian Gym''' (Japanese: '''トキワジム''' ''Tokiwa Gym'') is the official [[gym]] of [[Viridian City]]. It is based on {{type2|Ground}} [[Pokémon]]. The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Giovanni]], the head of [[Team Rocket]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him receive the {{Badge|Earth}}.

Other known leaders of the Gym are {{ga|Blue}} and [[Agatha]] of the [[Elite Four]], who serves as a temporary Gym Leader.

[[Image:Viridian Gym FRLG.png|thumb|Viridian Gym in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}]]
Viridian Gym appears in all games set in the [[Kanto]] region. In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}} when the player makes their first encounter with the gym, it is locked because of the absence of the Gym Leader. With this acknowledged, the player journeys off onto other Gyms to challenge them. Once this has been accomplished and when the player has collected the remaining seven [[Gym Badges]], the Viridian Gym reopens.

Inside the Gym, the floor uses the same transporting tiles as in the {{OBP|Rocket Hideout|Celadon City}}. The player must use these tiles to navigate through the Gym to reach Giovanni. In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, when Blue takes the place of the Gym Leader, the Gym is completely remodeled, and the tiles are now gone.

A field based on the gym also appears in {{Eng|Pokémon Stadium}}'s [[Gym Leader Castle]].

==In the anime==
In the anime, the Viridian Gym was led by [[Giovanni]], as it was in [[Generation I]]. The gym features Roman architecture, stately pillars, and an old mural depicting the proud tradition of this most prestigious gym. The predominant brownish color suggests the gym's affiliation with the {{type2|Ground}}.

The Viridian Gym first made an appearance in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]''. Before {{Ash}} could challenge him, however, [[Gary Oak]] appeared, taunting him with ten badges, and insisting on challenging the Viridian Gym for fun. Gary faced Giovanni, though his confidence was quickly eroded after Giovanni brought out {{an|Mewtwo}}, who defeated each of Gary's Pokémon, even when Giovanni allowed him to use more than one Pokémon at a time against Mewtwo.

Ash Ketchum soon after challenged the gym, after Gary and his Pokémon had recovered, however, as the Team Rocket boss had unmentioned business to attend to, he left the Gym in the care of none other than [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}. Giovanni also left them with several Pokémon that they could use against any challengers. Ash had a hard time beating them initially, and as the Gym was rigged to shock anyone whose Pokémon took damage, it was a hard fight at first. Eventually, Ash overcame the borrowed Pokémon's power and defeated all of them, causing Team Rocket to rely on their usual duo of {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}}. Ash quickly dispatched the two, shocking the trio due to the Gym's rigging. They blasted off, dropping an Earth Badge in their daze. Ash caught it, but he, Gary, Gary's cheerleaders, Brock, and Misty had to escape the Gym quickly, as it was collapsing.

The Gym appeared again when Ash returned to [[Kanto]] from [[Hoenn]] in ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]'', where [[Agatha]] was now the temporary Gym Leader. Ash challenged her to an {{wp|exhibition match}}, but lost.

Giovanni abdicating his position as Gym Leader is similar to the case in the Generation I games, however, in the anime, he is still in charge of Team Rocket, while in the games he disbands the team.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
The Viridian Gym is first visited in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur, Come Home!]]'' where {{Special|Red}} and [[Professor Oak]] enters following a {{p|Bulbasaur}}. In this occasion the Gym is abandoned with only a {{p|Machoke}} and a Giovanni statue present.

The Gym is visited again after Red's incident with Mewtwo. During this time, Giovanni is present and ready to fight. However, as the battle progresses, the gym collapses due to {{p|Nidoking}}'s {{m|Earthquake}}.

Even later, Red's Gym Leader test is held in the gym. Even though he wins, Red declines the position as he was struggling throughout the battle. Currently, Blue is the Viridian Gym's leader.

In the FireRed and LeafGreen chapter, {{Special|Yellow}} and {{Special|Silver}} go to the Viridian Gym to seek Silver's past. At the same time, Giovanni and the Three Beasts are on their way to the gym also, trying to reunite Silver with Giovanni. This succeeds when [[Sird]] lets Yellow use her power, thus exhausting her.

==In the TCG==
The Viridian Gym was featured in the TCG. The following is a list of cards named '''Viridian City Gym'''.

|}

==Trivia==
*The Viridian Gym is the first Official Gym in the anime to be shown challenged both by Ash and another main character, Gary. This next happened [[EP256|unofficially]] in Johto, but officially against the [[Oreburgh Gym]] in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, when [[Paul]] and {{Ash}} both challenged [[Roark]]. Also again when both {{an|Dawn}} and Ash challenged [[Maylene]] of [[Veilstone City]].
*[[Agatha]]'s temporary position as Leader of the Viridian Gym when {{Ash}} returns to [[Kanto]] may be an anime reference to the fact that Giovanni quit Team Rocket and his status as Gym Leader after being defeated by {{ga|Red}}. What this possibly means for [[Gary Oak]], whose game counterpart {{ga|Blue}} eventually assumed the title of leader in [[Generation II]], is disputed.
*The Viridian Gym of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} is the only Viridian Gym not to feature {{p|Rhydon}}.
*In [[Generation I]], a Revive can be found and in [[Generation III]], a [[Macho Brace]], making it the only gym with items in it.
*This is the only gym to be based on 3 different types throughout the games and anime and the only one to not have a type for a generation.
*In [[Generation III]], all of Giovanni's Pokémon knew [[Earthquake]].

Wii

Adwajr: /* Trivia */

[[Image:Wii.jpg|thumb|right|Wii and its controller, the Wii Remote]]
'''Wii''' is [[Nintendo]]'s seventh-generation console, which serves as the company's competition against Sony's [[wp:PlayStation 3|PlayStation 3]] and Microsoft's [[wp:Xbox 360|Xbox 360]]. It, like its predecessor, the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]], is able to connect to software titles on the handheld of this generation, the [[Nintendo DS]], and has a Pokémon game that will serve as a battle arena for the [[Generation IV]] Pokémon games - in this case, [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]].

==Features==
===Wii Remote===
Wii's controller is a strange and revolutionary one, instead of taking the dual-control-stick layout of the previous generation like its competitors, it is in a remote control form, with attachments available to work with compatible games, such as a control stick on a nunchuck attachment, or the classic controller, which takes on a layout similar to the other consoles' main controller. The Wii Remote is wireless, and features many innovations such as motion and tilt sensing, a first for game controllers.

===Wii Menu===
[[Image:Disc channel.jpg|thumb|right|The Wii Disc Channel]]

The console features a custom GUI made up of different-- and expandable-- channels, all of which, save the Disc Channel, can be moved around to any of the 47 spaces available on the main menu. New channels can be downloaded via the Wii Shop Channel, including a browser and games from older systems playable via Virtual Console.

Wii also has the ability to send messages to and from other devices, so long as the Wii sends out the first message, an address book confirmation message, to the email address or cell phone number in question. When the recipient replies to the Wii's message, communication between the two devices will be active, and via WiiConnect24, others can leave messages for players of the console on its message board from anywhere in the world.

===Backward compatibility===
Wii is also backwards-compatible with all GameCube games, as well as with most of GameCube's accessories, such as the controllers, memory cards, GameCube to GBA cables, and microphone.

==Technical specs==
* Compatibility with both 12cm Wii Game Discs and 8cm GameCube Game Discs
* 729 MHz "Broadway" IBM CPU
* 243 MHz "Hollywood" ATI GPU
* 88 MB total memory
* 512 MB internal flash memory, for game, channel, and data saving
* SD memory card bay for expansion of save space (2 GB maximum SD card size)
* Two USB ports for expansion and/or networking capabilities
 
==Pokémon games==
===On game discs===
Most Wii games are released on the Wii's own 12cm discs. So far, there are two Pokémon games known, and both of them have been released.
* [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]
* [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]

Because the Wii features backwards compatibility with the majority of [[GameCube]] hardware, all Pokémon games on the GameCube are also playable on the Wii.

===WiiWare games===
[[File:WiiWare.png|thumb|WiiWare]]
WiiWare games are special games downloadable via the Wii Shop Channel. One Pokémon game has been released worldwide, and another two have been released in Japan.
* [[My Pokémon Ranch]]
* [[Pokémon Rumble]]
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)]]

===Virtual Console games===
Virtual Console games are old games that were originally released on past consoles, and have now been re-released on the Wii Shop Channel. Like WiiWare games, they can be downloaded after being bought. There are two Pokémon games that have received this treatment so far. It is unlikely that more games will be released this way, as the only remaining console Pokémon games are [[Hey You, Pikachu!]], which requires a microphone, and the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], which require connectivity with the [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II|II]] games, which the Wii cannot achieve.

*[[Pokémon Snap]]
*[[Pokémon Puzzle League]]
*[[Super Smash Bros.]] (Currently not released in North America)

==Trivia==
[[Image:DPTV.png|thumb|right|Wii seen in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}]]
* The remote control for the evolution machine featured in ''[[DP021|Ya See We Want an Evolution]]'' was similar in design to the controller of the Wii.
** The remote Meowth used in ''[[DP031|The Grass-type is Always Greener!]]'' resembled the Nunchuk.
* The AV cable for the Wii is only the third design Nintendo has used. The {{wp|NES}} had its own, while the {{wp|SNES}}, [[Nintendo 64|N64]], and [[Nintendo GameCube|GCN]] all used the same one.
* The player character and the player's rival each have a Wii in their bedrooms in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} and [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]].
** The player character's bedroom in {{g|Ranger: Shadows of Almia}} has a Wii next to the TV set in [[Chicole Village]].

Core series

2009-09-27T12:30:21Z

Adwajr:

{{fan speculation}}
It is not yet known if there will be '''future generations''' of the Pokémon franchise. However, it has been indicated in the past, that not every Pokémon in the {{pkmn|world}} has been discovered yet, and regions to which unknown Pokémon are native are likely to be revealed gradually. The Pokémon franchise remains very profitable for Nintendo and is currently the second best selling video-game franchise, second only to the Mario franchise (which also belongs to Nintendo), meaning that the end of the series is likely still far away.

Currently, there are four [[generation]]s of Pokémon games, each with their own set of then-new Pokémon, moves and several other things that have become the pattern of the [[main series]] so far. Although nothing is known at this time about a possible Generation V or beyond, the patterns which have applied to all four current generations are expected to continue to hold true in the future.

What is so far assumed from the patterns that have run from [[Generation I]] to the present about Generation V and beyond is as follows:
*Initially, there will be two versions of the new game, which will differ in capture rates and [[version exclusives]]. A more extensive third version will be released some time later, in which most Pokémon previously exclusive to one of the two versions will be available, but other Pokémon found in both versions will be missing. In the third version, the outfits of the [[player character]]s and [[rival]] will likely change. There will also probably be an extension to the plot in the third version.
**'''Evidence:''' The three-version formula has been used in every generation, although there remains no third version to {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and there are four games in Generation I. However, this is most likely because the former games were remakes of the [[Generation I]] games and the latter game was only released in Japan. Since [[Generation III]], the player characters have gotten an outfit change in the third version.
*A new [[region]] will be explored. It will be geographically similar to a real-life region in Japan.
**'''Evidence:''' Each of the four generations has been centered in a new region relative to its time: [[Kanto]] in Generation I, [[Johto]] in Generation II, [[Hoenn]] in Generation III, and [[Sinnoh]] in Generation IV. The similarities to Japan's regions are noted [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world|here]].
*A previously unknown [[Pokémon professor]] will reside in this region and have new {{type2|Grass}}, {{type2|Fire}}, and {{type2|Water}} Pokémon available for the player to select for his or her adventure. The professor will be named after a tree in the English version.
**'''Evidence:''' Professors {{prof|Oak}}, {{prof|Elm}}, {{prof|Birch}}, {{prof|Rowan}} and their [[starter Pokémon]].
*More new Pokémon will be introduced. Some may be [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|evolved forms]] or [[Baby Pokémon|pre-evolutions]] of Pokémon now known. The amount of new Pokémon introduced will likely not be below 100 or above 150. Specifically, a dual-typed {{2t|Normal|Flying}} bird Pokémon will be introduced along with a mammal-based {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.
**'''Evidence:''' Each generation after the first has introduced at least two Pokémon related to those of previous generations. The amount of Pokémon released each generation was 151 (150 before {{p|Mew}}), 100, 135 and 107. As for the birds and mammals, in each generation there has been one of each introduced:
***'''[[Generation I]]''': {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Rattata}}. {{p|Spearow}} was also introduced in this generation.
***'''[[Generation II]]''': {{p|Hoothoot}} and {{p|Sentret}}
***'''[[Generation III]]''': {{p|Taillow}} and {{p|Zigzagoon}}
***'''[[Generation IV]]''': {{p|Starly}} and {{p|Bidoof}}
*The new [[regional Pokédex]] will begin with the starter Pokémon and their evolutionary kin as #001-#009, in the order of Grass-Fire-Water. It will lack at least some Pokémon. The [[National Pokédex]] numbers of new Pokémon will start with #494 for the Grass-type starter and continue on at least up to #593 if at least 100 Pokémon are added.
**'''Evidence:''' [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Dex number|Hoenn's regional Pokédex]] leaves out 184 Pokémon. [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Dex number|Sinnoh's regional Pokédex]] leaves out 342 Pokémon in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} and 283 Pokémon in {{v2|Platinum}}.
*The new region may feature new evolutions of {{p|Eevee}} and new [[Fossil|Fossil Pokémon]].
**'''Evidence: '''Both have happened in three out of the four released generations.
*There will be eight Pokémon [[Gym]]s and an [[Elite Four]], of which each will specialize in a specific [[elemental type]], and a [[Champion]] at the end of the [[Elite Four]]. There will also be an evil team that the player will battle and eventually defeat after a battle with its leader.
**'''Evidence:''' This is part of the standard [[version]] formula.
*There will be an {{pkmn|anime}} season or series. In it {{Ash}} will travel to a new region, bringing his Pikachu, and will capture the resident bird Pokémon and at least one [[Starter Pokémon]]. He will have a team consisting of {{AP|Pikachu}}, the bird Pokémon, a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon, a {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon, a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon, and another Pokémon. He will challenge the [[Gym]]s of the region. He may receive new [[Ash's friends|traveling companions]], and might get a new outfit made by [[Delia Ketchum|his mother]] at the beginning of the new series
**'''Evidence:''' This has happened to every [[Version|main game]] and [[generation]] since {{2v2|Red|Blue}} in [[Generation I]].
*There will be some new [[manga]] produced, some [[Pokémon Special]] chapters written, and new [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]] cards created.
**'''Evidence:''' This has happened to every [[Version|main game]] and [[generation]] since {{v2|Red and Blue|s}} in [[Generation I]].
*{{p|Pikachu}} will be found in the new region.
**'''Evidence:''' The series mascot can be caught in every portable Pokémon game, except {{game|Yellow}} where it is the starter.
*The evolutionary families of {{p|Geodude}}, {{p|Abra}}, {{p|Zubat}}, {{p|Machop}}, {{p|Psyduck}}, {{p|Goldeen}}, {{p|Tentacool}}, {{p|Magikarp}}, and possibly {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Rhyhorn}} will be included within the new region.
**'''Evidence:''' There has not been one [[sea route]] yet where Magikarp or Tentacool/{{p|Tentacruel}} hasn't been found. Magikarp is always catchable with the [[Old Rod]] as well. Goldeen is a common fishing Pokémon as well. Zubat and Geodude or their evolutions can be found in nearly every cave, along with Machop or Abra occasionally. Psyduck is common around lakes or in [[Safari Zone]]s. Magnemite may also be included in an industrial type location, like a [[Power Plant]]. This isn't certain as it was not included in the original [[Sinnoh]] Pokédex, but was later included in the {{v2|Platinum}} Sinnoh Pokédex addition.
*There will be at least one [[legendary trio]] in the next generation, as well as at least one Über legendary and one [[event Pokémon]]. In total, there will be more than 14 new legendary Pokémon.
**'''Evidence:''' Generation I has exactly one of each of the above, and all subsequent generations have expanded on this number in some way. The number of new legendaries has increased for each Generation: 5 in Generation I, 6 in Generation II, 10 in Generation III and 14 in Generation IV.
*The new generation will be playable on a new handheld game system.
**'''Evidence:''' Every new generation so far has been released for the newest Nintendo handheld console relative to its time.
***{{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Red, Blue|s}} {{game3|Red and Green|Green|s}} and {{v2|Yellow}} for the [[Game Boy]].
***{{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} for the [[Game Boy Color]].
***[[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire]], {{3v2|FireRed|LeafGreen|Emerald}} for the [[Game Boy Advance]].
***[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl]], {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold, and SoulSilver]] for the [[Nintendo DS]].
*The new generation will introduce some new battling mechanics, and will likely have graphical improvements.
**'''Evidence''': This has happened in every generation since the first.
***[[Gen II]]: Introduced a split in {{stat|Special}} into {{stat|Special Attack}} and {{stat|Special Defense}}, as well as other additions, such as [[weather conditions]] and held items. Also, introduced animated sprites and slightly better graphics.
***[[Gen III]]: Introduced [[Ability|abilities]], and reorganized [[Effort values|EVs]] and [[Individual values|IVs]]. Graphics were greatly improved from Gen II as well.
***[[Gen IV]]: Redefined the difference between [[Physical move|Physical]] and [[Special move|Special]] attacks. Introduced 3D environments and made graphics more realistic and less cartoony.
*Before the first duo of games is released, at least three Pokémon of the next generation will appear in the anime first, at least one of which will appear prior to their official debut or fairly unannounced. As of late, they will likely debut in a movie, then possibly shortly afterwards be captured by a main character.
**'''Evidence:''' This has happened to every generation yet aside from the first:
***[[Gen II]]: {{p|Ho-Oh}} in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', {{p|Togepi}} in ''[[EP050|Who Gets To Keep Togepi?]]'', {{p|Marill}} and {{p|Snubbull}} in ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'', {{p|Donphan}} in ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', and {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Slowking}} in ''[[The Power of One]]''.
***[[Gen III]]: {{p|Kecleon}} in ''[[EP205|The Kecleon Caper]]'', {{p|Wynaut}} in ''[[EP251|Beauty is Skin Deep]]'', {{p|Azurill}} in ''[[PK11|Pikachu's PikaBoo]]'', and {{p|Blaziken}} in ''[[EP265|Pop Goes the Sneasel]]''.
***[[Gen IV]]: {{p|Munchlax}} in ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'', {{p|Lucario}}, {{p|Bonsly}}, {{p|Mime Jr.}}, and {{p|Weavile}} in ''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', and {{p|Buizel}}, {{p|Chatot}}, {{p|Mantyke}}, and {{p|Manaphy}} in ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]''.
* Somewhere between the beginning of the main games and the third Gym will be a forest/woods. The forest/woods will most likely be named according to a nearby town.
**'''Evidence:''' Every generation has had some sort of forest or woods, with [[Ilex Forest]] of the Johto region being the only one not named after a nearby location.
*There will be at least 20 numbered routes within the games. These include surfing routes, among other things. There will also be at least one cave as well as a [[Victory Road]].
**'''Evidence:''' There has been a cave, sea route, and at least 19 other routes in every main game.
*The Next Generation Will Be On A Different Console
**'''Evidence:''' [[Generation I]]: [[Game Boy]], [[Generation II]]: [[Game Boy Color]], [[Generation III]]: [[Game Boy Advance]], [[Generation IV]]: [[Nintendo DS]].

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
After the events of ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'', Misty is on her way back to Cerulean City. Misty comments to Togepi that they are almost home, and promises to get something to eat as soon as they get there. As Togepi happily cries out, Misty reaches the top of a hill and sees Cerulean City spread out before her.

As she arrives in town, she notices a lot of people congregating around a large TV screen. On it, there is a news report about the Pokémon Inspection Agency, which has just closed down their fourth Gym in less than a month. It cuts to Agent Thedora, who explains that they are nailing down on anything substandard. This means that any unsafe, unclean, or uncool Gym will be shut down by them. Hearing rumors that they were on their way to Cerulean City, Misty rushes to get there before they do. But not before she is spotted by The Invincible Pokémon Brothers, who are determined to get revenge.

Finally at the Gym, Misty calls to see if anybody is there. However, everyone is preoccupied by a Gyarados in the swimming pool that seems very angry. At the side of the pool is Nurse Joy with four boys, one of which falls in. As the Gyarados begins to chase him, Misty arrives and asks what the matter is. The boys introduce themselves as the local chapter of her sister's fan club, and comment that she is almost as pretty as they are. They were looking after the Gym until Misty got back, but Gyarados has been in an endless rage for days, and they can't calm it down. Nurse Joy explains that it is caught in an endless agitation loop, and suggests that Misty could think of something.

Misty decides to try to get Gyarados to return, but Joy tells her that it won't work while Gyarados is so distressed. Next, Misty sends out Politoed. However, Psyduck also comes out, and falls into the water. Before it drowns, Gyarados {{m|headbutt}}s it out, hitting the boy who is still in the pool, and sending them both onto the poolside. As Politoed claps, the fan club make a hasty exit. Gyarados continues to rage...

Misty and Joy head downstairs, where Misty is reunited with Horsea and Starmie. However, Gyarados is now in the aquarium and Misty needs to figure out what to do. Joy confirms that she will need to find a way to reign it back in, but there is a problem, namely the fact that Misty has a fear of Gyarados. It goes back to when she was a baby. As she was crawling along, she crawled into the mouth of a Gyarados and was almost eaten. Misty decides that she will have to get over her fear if she wants to uphold her responsibility. Watching in the window, the Invincible Pokémon Brothers decide to use the Gyarados problem against her.

Misty in now on the diving board in her mermaid costume. She explains that she once took part in a water ballet with the Gyarados when it was a {{p|Magikarp}}, and that recreating their special moment may calm it down. After diving into the water, she is joined by the Gym Pokémon, who then dance with her. Gyarados watches for a moment, but then uses {{m|Whirlpool}} on them. Trapped, Misty runs out of air, but in her last moments of consciousness she sees Horsea pushing her to the surface.

In a foggy area, Misty sees Ash and Brock. They ask what she is doing there and if it is true that they made her the Gym Leader of Cerulean. Misty tells them that they made a mistake, and that she is not good enough. But they say that of course she is, and that they believe in her. As they float away, Misty calls that she needs their help. Suddenly, her foot becomes trapped, which is revealed to be held by Gyarados. She wakes up, and drinks the tea that Joy hands to her. Nurse Joy suggests separating Gyarados from the other Pokémon for safety, and Misty agrees.

Misty gives Gyarados one more chance to return its [[Poké Ball]], which is resisted. She then traps it in a cage, which Gyarados can't get out of. Misty feels bad for it, but before she can contemplate too much the Invincible Pokémon Brothers make an announcement to Cerulean City. They announce that as Misty has lost control of her Pokémon - (not exactly true since she never had control of it to begin with!) - it is time for a change of leader. They challenge Misty to a battle, with the winner becoming the leader of the Gym. The residents of Cerulean City rush in to watch the battle.

The Invincible Pokémon Brothers introduce themselves as Kim, Kain and Kon. They tell Misty that allowing a Pokémon to control her makes her unfit to lead a Gym, and suggest that she is too scared to battle because she would lose easily in front of everyone. Misty accepts the challenge. As the boy who fell in the pool earlier begins the commentary, Nurse Joy announces that the battle will consist of three one-on-one matches. Misty sends out Staryu, while Kim sends out Hitmonchan. Hitmonchan begins to drown, so Misty sends in Staryu to help it out. However, it was a decoy and Hitmonchan punches Staryu, who goes down in one hit. Apparently, a {{m|Faint Attack}} is illegal during this battle, as Nurse Joy proclaims Staryu the winner.

Next, Misty sends out Corsola, while Kim sends out Tentacruel. Tentacruel starts out with {{m|BubbleBeam}}, which hurt Corsola badly. However, Misty orders a {{m|Recover}}, and then sends Corsola into a {{m|Tackle}} attack. As Corsola (slowly) heads towards Tentacruel, Kain and Kon send out their own Tentacruel, which both bash into Corsola. As Corsola bashes into a rock near Gyarados, Nurse Joy tells them that it is a rule violation. Kim denies this stating that the challenge was from the Invincible Pokémon Brothers, and not just him. (Everyone seems to forget that the challenge was for one-on-one battles.) Misty comments that Kim is too chicken to fight by himself, and the brothers react by ordering the Tentacruel to use {{m|Poison Sting}}. Corsola is badly hurt, and so Misty dives in to save it.

Nurse Joy disqualifies them, and bans them from all official Pokémon matches. To try to reverse this, the Tentacruel are ordered to use Poison Sting on Gyarados. Misty reacts by doing what anyone else in the anime would do at this point - she goes in front of the stings and takes the hits herself. Gyarados is taken aback with surprise at how far Misty is willing to go to protect it. Kim's Tentacruel then {{m|tackle}}s her into the cage, and the air is bashed out of her. As she floats down to the bottom of the pool, Gyarados is clearly horrified that she could drown, and it frantically begins to bang on the cage again. As everyone watches in worry - besides the Pokémon Brothers who are quite happy with where they are at the moment - Gyarados makes a particularly powerful hit, which makes the cage collapse. Gyarados quickly speeds Misty to the surface.

The Invincible Pokémon Brothers are not happy with this turn of events, and order the Tentacruel to attack with {{m|Bind}}, BubbleBeam, and {{m|Hydro Pump}}. However, Gyarados easily reflects these, before using a {{m|Hyper Beam}} to send the Tentacruel blasting off. A Hydro Pump quickly sends the not-so Invincible Pokémon Brothers to the same fate. As the crowd cheers, Gyarados happily returns to its [[Poké Ball]]. Nurse Joy congratulates Misty and tells her that she has proven herself to be a fine Gym Leader, and that her Gym has passed inspection. Misty is confused, but Joy explains that she is a Pokémon Inspection Agent.

Outside the Gym, Agent Joy explains that she is now going to the [[Hoenn]] region. Misty asks her that if she meets Ash, could she tell him that Misty finally made it as a Gym Leader. Agent Joy agrees, and then sets off. As Misty watches her go, she thinks of Ash and Brock, and knows that they were right that she could do it on her own. As a new chapter of Misty's life begins, she begins training the Gym Pokémon.

== Major events ==
* [[Misty]] resumes her post as the [[Cerulean City]] [[Gym Leader]].
* Misty manages to conquer her fear of {{p|Gyarados}} and is able to tame [[Misty's Gyarados|one]].
* Misty encounters the [[Invincible Pokémon Brothers]] again.

== Trivia ==
* [[Misty]] reads the title card.
* Misty is able to talk underwater, which could be a example of [[anime physics]]''.
* This is the only Chronicles/Hoso episode that features {{Ash}}, showing him from the front and with dialogue. However, this is only in Misty's dream sequence.
* It is interesting to note that [[Cerulean Gym]] was nearly shut down for the Gym Leader not even attending the Gym, but in [[DP049|later]] [[DP086|episodes]], The Hearthome Gym wasn't known to be in danger of shutting down despite its [[Fantina|Gym Leader]] not being present for over a month, at least.

=== Errors ===
* The events of this episode imply that Misty never was a Gym Leader prior to this episode, but in ''[[EP007|The Waterflowers of Cerulean City]]'', she told Ash that she '''was''' the Cerulean City Gym Leader.
* Hitmonchan is twice incorrectly referred to as a Punching-type Pokémon, rather than a {{type2|Fighting}}.

=== Dub edits ===
Kail and Kai are misnamed '''Kam''' and '''Khan'''.

'''Sabrina''' (Japanese: '''ナツメ''' ''Natsume'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Saffron City]]'s {{pkmn|Gym}}, known officially as the [[Saffron Gym]]. She hands out the {{badge|Marsh}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She is a young lady with psychic abilities, and thus trains {{type2|Psychic}} [[Pokémon]].

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimorisabrinaoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Sabrina from Pokémon Red and Blue.]]
Sabrina's title is "The Master of Psychic Pokémon." She has had psychic powers ever since she was a child, when she accidentally bent a spoon. She apparently dislikes battling, but is hard to beat because she can communicate with her Pokémon telepathically. Her fame has grown so much that even Trainers living in the [[Sevii Islands]] have heard of her. Previously there were two Gyms in Saffron City, a {{type2|Fighting}} Gym, and a Psychic-type Gym. Sabrina used her advantage to defeat the rival gym and strip them of their Gym status.

In the same year that Sabrina was defeated by {{ga|Red}}/{{ga|Leaf}}, she had a vision of {{ga|Gold}}/{{ga|Kris}}'s arrival. However, Sabrina was unable to foresee the greatness of this opponent's power, teaching her that even the ability of foresight may be limited.

In addition to the Marsh Badge, Sabrina gives out {{TM|46|Psywave}}, in {{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Red, Blue|s}}, {{game3|Red and Green|Green|s}} and {{v2|Yellow}}. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, she gives out {{TM|04|Calm Mind}}. In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, she doesn't give out a [[TM]], but in its remakes, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, she gives out {{TM|48|Skill Swap}}.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Sabrina1.jpg|left|thumb|180px|Sabrina with a doll of her former self.]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Sabrina was the fourth gym leader {{Ash}} encountered. He challenged her initially in ''[[EP022|Abra and the Psychic Showdown]]'', and had a rematch with her in ''[[EP024|Haunter Versus Kadabra]]''.

Sabrina inherited her psychic power from her [[Sabrina's father|father]], who had the ability to {{m|teleport}} from location to location, as well as telekinesis. It manifested when she was young, and it was soon apparent that Sabrina's abilities far exceeded her father's. She was able to use her psychic powers to do many things- teleportation, telepathy, psychokinesis, and transmutation.

As her power increased, she grew more obsessed with developing it. She became less and less emotional, using her abilities for destructive purposes. This caused a deep psychological rift. The emotions she tried to shut off developed into a separate personality- a young girl who manifested as a puppet around Sabrina. Sabrina's mind was divided into the cold, callous woman with a thirst for power and the little girl who just wanted to have fun.

Sabrina became the leader of the [[Saffron Gym]], and turned it into an institute where fellow psychics could develop their powers. Ash was headed to Saffron one day, unknowingly watched by Sabrina. Sabrina's younger self used her psychic abilities to save Ash and his friends from [[Team Rocket]]. The next day, despite warnings from a mysterious man, Ash challenged Sabrina and lost miserably. Sabrina used her powers to shrink Ash and {{Ashfr|his friends}}, but they were saved by the man. He cautioned Ash that only {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon could defeat Psychic-types.

Ash resolved to catch a Ghost-type Pokémon. After a trip to the [[Lavender Tower]], Ash returned with a {{TP|Sabrina|Haunter}} he had befriended. Ash challenged Sabrina to a rematch, but Haunter had wandered off in the meantime. Ash managed to escape Sabrina's wrath, rescued by the mysterious man once again, but [[Brock]] and [[Misty]] were transformed into dolls and placed into a dollhouse, where they met Sabrina's mother in the same predicament.

After talking with the man, who was revealed to be Sabrina's father, Ash returned once more, and during the match, Haunter appeared and started to playfully tease Sabrina. Haunter's antics delighted Sabrina so much, that she was no longer able to contain her emotions and started to laugh. This caused her two personalities to merge back into one. Ash was deemed the winner of the match due to the inability of Sabrina or her psychically-linked Pokémon to battle, and the young man won the Marsh Badge. Haunter chose to stay with Sabrina and her reunited family.

This listing is of Sabrina's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:
{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=yes|Sabrina|Kadabra|{{psychic color}}|Sabrina's Kadabra.jpg|Evolving almost immediately in her battle with Ash, Kadabra and Sabrina held a close psychic bond, allowing for Kadabra to not need to be verbally commanded the battle strategies that Sabrina wants. Kadabra is a strong Pokémon that is capable of easily recovering in battle. However since it was linked to Sabrina, it was susceptable to any changes in her emotions. It's Japanese voice actor is [[Unshō Ishizuka]] and it's English voice actress was [[Maddie Blaustein]]}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=yes|Sabrina|Haunter|{{ghost color}}|EP024.png|When Ash came for a rematch, he brought a Haunter from Lavender Town with him. While Haunter is not much of a battler, it enjoys making people laugh. When he met Sabrina, Haunter started doing amusing routines that eventually made Sabrina laugh and lose the battle. Haunter decided to stay with Sabrina and always be there for comic purposes. It's Japanese voice actor is [[Toshiyuki Morikawa]] and it's English voice actor is [[Ted Lewis]].}}

==In the ''Pokémon Special'' manga==
[[File:Lt. Surge and Sabrina.png|right|thumb|250px|Sabrina and her Mr. Mime (right) with Lt. Surge and his Raichu (left)]]
Sabrina is one of the three villainous heads of Team Rocket, and serves under [[Giovanni]] in ''[[Pokémon Special]]''.

Under her boss's orders, she captured {{p|Moltres}} and brought it to Saffron City. She then used her Mr. Mime's {{m|Barrier}} to totally close off Saffron City from the outside world. {{Special|Red}}'s [[Pika|Pikachu]] was able to pass through the barrier by using {{m|Substitute}}. He was then able to defeat Mr. Mime and let Red, {{Special|Blue}}, and {{Special|Green}} in. At [[Silph Co.]], Sabrina took on Blue, but the younger Trainer was able to best Sabrina by outwitting her.

Later, Sabrina helped the [[Pallet Town]] Trainers in the fight against the [[Elite Four]] during the [[Cerise Island]] battle. Sabrina's Alakazam created magical items called the [[Spoons of Destiny]]. When held by a strong Trainer, the Spoons of Destiny would point out a Trainer of a similar style and personality. Using these tools, {{Special|Green}} was paired with [[Koga]], {{Special|Yellow}} was paired with [[Blaine]], {{Special|Red}} was paired with [[Lt. Surge]], and Sabrina herself was paired with {{Special|Blue}}. It would seem that all eight members still carry the spoons to this day.

During the battle against [[Lorelei]], Sabrina suffered severe {{wp|frostbite}} injuries. Because of this, she later traveled to mystic springs at [[Johto]]'s [[Mt. Silver]] to heal.

==In the ''Electric Tale of Pikachu'' manga==
[[File:Sabrina Electric Tale.png|right|thumb|100px|Kind Sabrina with [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]]]]
The ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]'' manga probably presents the most sympathetic portrayal of Sabrina. She is a kind and gentle shrine maiden who runs a Gym in the mountains with her Abra. When she was a child, Sabrina's Pokémon were all killed by a gigantic Haunter that used {{m|Dream Eater}} to suck out their souls. After defeating Ash in a gym battle, Sabrina hears of the giant Haunter appearing at the Pokémon Tower, and went off to go defeat it. Unfortunately, she herself fell prey to the Haunter and her soul sucked out. But with Brock and Ash's help, Sabrina is able to defeat the Haunter. Although Ash tries to catch it with an [[Ultra Ball]], it kills itself using {{m|Selfdestruct}} rather than let itself be captured.

List of cross-generational references

2009-09-20T10:18:11Z

Adwajr:

The four [[generation]]s of [[Pokémon games]], taking place in the same {{pkmn|world|universe}}, have had multiple references to each other. Not only do the games reference their same-generation counterparts (with the {{player}}'s default name being the version played and the [[rival]]'s being the counterpart version in the first two generations), but games released later in the series typically will feature references to events of past generations.

Please note, of course, that this does not include Pokémon. While Pokémon released in previous generations will always appear, they are not a reference to the generation itself.

==List of references==
===Generation II===
====To Generation I====
* Not only is the [[Kanto]] region a playable area during the games, but several of the events of [[Generation I]] are spoken of as having happened three years previous. Many characters also reappear because of this, though some of them undergo design changes.
* {{ga|Red}}, the player character of the first games, is found training in [[Mt. Silver]] and can be battled.
* {{ga|Blue}}, the rival character of the first games, has become the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Viridian City]]. His team is based on the Pokémon he used in the final battle in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.
* A man in the [[Violet City]] Pokémon Center states that the former [[Team Rocket]] was broken up by a "{{ga|Red|young kid}}."
* The parents of the Copycat in [[Saffron City]] mention that her Clefairy Doll was given to her by {{ga|Red|a boy}} three years before.
* The {{DL|In-battle effect item|Berserk Gene}}, a held item, is found near the former entrance of the now-collapsed [[Cerulean Cave]], where {{p|Mewtwo}} once hid.
* There is a [[Pokémon doll]] of a {{m|Surf}}ing {{p|Pikachu}} available to decorate the room, which references the special minigame in {{game|Yellow}}.
* A man in [[Cerulean City]] says there used to be [[Cerulean Cave|a cave near the city with powerful Pokémon]].
* If the player checks the poster in the [[Rocket Game Corner]], the player will be informed that there's nothing there, referring to the secret switch under the poster in Generation I.

===Generation III===
====To Generation I====
* [[Brawly]] is said to have once trained alongside [[Bruno]], who is a member of [[Kanto]]'s [[Elite Four]].
* The Oceanic Museum in [[Slateport City]] has two water samples, one of which is from Kanto. Its background music theme is also an arrangement of the S.S. Anne theme.
* {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} in their entirety are a reference to Generation I's events, while the credit sequence references the [[version mascot]]s of {{v2|Red}}, {{v2|Green}}, [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue]], and {{v2|Yellow}}.
* On [[Faraway Island]], a series of smudged messages, which may have been left by [[Mr. Fuji]], appear on a [[signpost]].
* A boy in [[Lilycove City]] says that he and his family came from the [[Kanto]] region before he asks if there are any Pokémon found only in the [[Hoenn]] region.

====To Generation II====
* In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the player-controlled character of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} is said to have moved at the beginning of the game with his/her family from the [[Johto]] region, the main setting of the Generation II games. (In {{game|Emerald}} the character who said this instead states that the player character's family moved there from a faraway place.)
* The Oceanic Museum in [[Slateport City]] has two water samples, one of which is from Johto.
* A man in [[Mt. Moon]] says that [[Brock]] sometimes helps excavate [[fossil]]s there. This explains how he acquires the {{p|Kabutops}} and {{p|Omastar}} which he uses in the second generation of games.
* At the [[Cerulean Cape]], a dame says [[Misty]] has high hopes about the location, which is known as a famous dating spot. In the second generation of games, she is first encountered there with an unknown male character.
* [[Janine]], [[Koga]]'s daughter and future [[Gym Leader|Leader]] of [[Fuchsia Gym]], appears in [[Fuchsia City]], and tells the player that she is training to use {{t|Poison}} Pokémon like her father. She is misnamed as Charine in the English translation of FireRed and LeafGreen, however.
* The branch of [[Team Rocket]] in the [[Sevii Islands]] seems to be the same branch which attempted to revive Team Rocket during Generation II, with plans to use magnetic waves to evolve Pokémon. Their lead scientist also tells that [[Giovanni]]'s child has red hair, a possible reference to [[Silver (game)|Silver]]. It could also be a reference to the head admin in Johto, pictured on [[Team Rocket's Evil Deeds (Neo Destiny 103)|Team Rocket's Evil Deeds]].
* One of [[Professor Oak]]'s assistants will state that he is to get a [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk|radio show]] sometime in the near future.
* [[Celio]] mentions that some members of [[Bill]]'s family live in [[Goldenrod City]].
* A woman on [[Boon Island]] in [[Bruno]]'s section of the [[Fame Checker]] mentions the [[Ragecandybar]].
* [[Whitney]], [[Jasmine]] and [[Pryce]] lookalikes appear as audience members in {{pkmn|Contest}}s.
* The man who digs [[Three Isle Path]] and gives the player a Nugget says that he'd like to buy a house in [[Kanto]]. He likely is the same person who gives away a Nugget in [[Generation II]] in his house on {{rt|2}}.
* The themes used on the [[Sevii Islands]] are remastered versions of Johto's final five routes as well as remastered versions of [[Olivine City]] and [[Cianwood City]].

===Generation IV===
====To Generation I====
* [[Professor Rowan]] is said to have developed the [[Sinnoh Dex]] with help from [[Professor Oak|a Pokémon professor from Kanto]].
* Professor Oak himself comes to [[Sinnoh]] to give the player the [[National Dex]], and can always be found in a house in [[Eterna City]] thereafter. He gives the player an [[Evolution-inducing held item#Up-Grade|Up-Grade]], which was sent to Oak by his acquaintance from [[Kanto]].
* In the gatehouse east of [[Canalave City]] is a guard who complains that he is thirsty, like the guards in Kanto who will allow the [[player character|player]] to enter [[Saffron City]] if they are brought a drink. Unlike those guards, however, this one does not do anything if brought a drink.
* A [[Ninja Boy]] on [[Route 210]] near [[Celestic Town]] says he wants to train with a [[Koga|ninja]] [[Gym Leader]] in a faraway land.
* One of the [[Elite Four]], [[Bertha]], shares a similar name (in Japanese and English) and design to [[Agatha]]. It is possible they are related, or that Bertha was at least modeled after Agatha.
* {{OBP|Black Belt|Trainer class}} Eddie from {{Si|Victory Road}} mentions that he trained in [[Fighting Dojo]] at {{Ci|Saffron}}.
* In [[Amity Square]], some Pokémon may be let out out of their [[Poké Ball]] to follow their Trainer around. One of the few available is {{p|Pikachu}}, which did the same (however, throughout the game) in {{game|Yellow}}.
* Much like the [[Viridian Gym]], the [[Hearthome Gym]] isn't accessible when the player first arrives in its home city.
* [[Bebe]]'s buddy [[Bill]] is mentioned to have developed the basic storage system.
* [[Veilstone City]] is many ways like [[Celadon City]] of Kanto, both of which are the largest city in their [[region]]. Both have a Game Corner ([[Rocket Game Corner]] in Celadon and [[Veilstone Game Corner]] in Veilstone), a prize exchange shop to accompany the Game Corner, and a [[Department Store]] ([[Celadon Department Store|Celadon Dept.]] in Celadon and [[Veilstone Department Store|Veilstone Dept.]] in Veilstone). The [[Villainous teams|villainous team]] of the region has two headquarters in the city: [[Team Rocket]] has [[Rocket Game Corner]] and [[Rocket Hideout (Celadon City)|Rocket Hideout]] and [[Team Galactic]] has [[Galactic Veilstone Building]] and [[Galactic Warehouse]].
**Also, part of the Veilstone Game Corner music is a techno remix of the Rocket Game Corner music.
* One of {{ga|Lucas}}'s alternate names was Ash in the English versions of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. This is one of the default names of {{ga|Red}} in the games {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}. It may even be a reference to the {{pkmn|anime}}'s [[Ash Ketchum|main character]].
[[File:Nostalgic Wallpaper.png|thumb|Wallpaper]]
* As a direct tribute to the original games, one of the wallpapers has been designed to resemble the design of the [[route]]s of the first games, complete with the graphics and sprites when the games are played on the [[Game Boy Color]], the [[Game Boy Advance]] or the [[Game Boy Advance SP]]. The wallpaper showcases typical features like both types of fences, low and high [[Tall grass|grass]], normal ground, a [[sign]] and a house.
* As [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]] are remakes of [[Pokémon Gold and Silver]], most of the Generation I-references there is also in this game.
* In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the lead Pokémon in the player's party follows the [[Player character|player]], much like in {{v2|Yellow}}, where the [[Red's Pikachu (game)|starter Pokémon]] follows the [[Red (game)|player]].
* During a special {{p|Celebi}} event, the character will, in fact, travel in time back to some time after that {{g|Red}} has defeated [[Giovanni]]. Giovanni tells his [[Silver (game)|son]] that he has decided to disband [[Team Rocket]]. Afterwards, he will run towards the [[Johto]] region and is found in a cave. When the player has defeated him, he will make a remark about that the player reminds him of the [[Red (game)|boy]] that made him choose to disband the team.

====To Generation II====
* A news report of a [[red Gyarados]] begins the game. The cameraman who filmed the documentary appears at the [[Survival Area]].
** In {{v2|Platinum}}, the game instead begins with a report about Professor Rowan. However, the cameraman from the red Gyarados report is seen blocking the entrance to [[Lake Valor]], hoping to get a shot of the {{p|Azelf|legendary Pokémon}} said to live there.
* A man, who gives the player a {{p|Happiny}} {{pkmn|egg}} in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, says that [[Professor Elm]] recently announced that eggs kept [[party|with a Trainer]] will eventually hatch.
* [[Jasmine]], one of Johto's [[Gym Leader]]s, appears to give the player {{HM|07|Waterfall}}.
* A man in [[Valor Lakefront]] states that he would like to see a {{p|Lugia|silver-colored Pokémon}} that resides in the [[Whirl Islands]], a {{p|Ho-Oh|rainbow-colored Pokémon}} that resides in the [[Tin Tower]], and {{p|Clefairy}} [[Days of the week#Monday|dancing]] in [[Mt. Moon]] sometime during his life.
* A [[Ninja Boy]] on {{Rt|210}} near [[Celestic Town]] says he wants to train with a [[Janine|ninja]] [[Gym Leader]] in a faraway land.
* [[Dragon Tamer]] Hayden on [[Route 224]] mentions that he left [[Dragon's Den]] several years ago.
* The [[Poké Ball]] design on the floor of the Sinnoh Pokémon Centers is colored {{game|Gold and Silver|s|gold and silver}}. Park Balls are also colored gold and silver, and the normally black stripe in the middle is actually a light blue, {{game|Crystal||crystal}}-like color.
* [[Dragon Tamer]] Geoffrey on [[Route 225]] mentions a [[Lance|Dragon Tamer Champion]].
* The {{p|Eevee}} which [[Bebe]] gives to the player was obtained originally from her [[Bill|friend]] in [[Johto]].
* [[Cynthia]], who somehow was able to obtain it (possibly from Jasmine, since she is in Sinnoh), gives the [[SecretPotion]], the medicine from [[Cianwood City]] that cured [[Amphy]] in [[Generation II]], to the player to cure the group of {{p|Psyduck}} blocking [[Route 210]].
* In Stargazer Colosseum in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], some of the Pokémon in the last battle depend on which game is linked to the Wii. If Diamond is linked, one of the Pokémon is {{p|Ho-Oh}}, Gold's [[version mascot]], and if Pearl is linked, one of the Pokémon is {{p|Lugia}}, Silver's version mascot.
* When a {{shiny2}} {{p|Clefairy}} appears during a slot game in [[Veilstone Game Corner]], a remixed version of [[Mt. Moon Square]] music from {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} is played.
* [[Maylene]]'s Japanese name, スモモ (''Sumomo''), is coincidentally shared by Kuni, a [[Kimono Girl]].
* In {{game|Platinum}}, the [[legendary birds]] can be found roaming Sinnoh following completion of the Sinnoh Dex. This may explain their absence from Kanto in Gold, Silver, and Crystal.
* In Pokémon Platinum, one of the women in the basement floor of the [[Veilstone Department Store]] mentions that the store is sold out of [[Ragecandybar]]s (written as "Rage Candy Bars"), the local specialty in [[Mahogany Town]].
* There are various similarities between Gyms and Gym Leaders between Sinnoh and Johto, including [[Byron]] and [[Jasmine]] being {{type2|Steel}} Gym Leaders and the sixth Gym Leader of their region, and [[Candice]] and [[Pryce]] being {{type2|Ice}} Gym Leaders and the seventh of their region.
* {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} in their entirety are a reference to Generation II's events.

====To Generation III====
* A man in [[Hearthome City]], who says he is from the [[Hoenn]] region, will show the player to the [[Contest Hall]], a feature originally introduced in Hoenn.
* A man in [[Valor Lakefront]] states that he would like to see a rocket launch from the Space Center in [[Mossdeep City]] sometime during his life.
* A woman in Valor Lakefront claims to have lost her Suite Key. If the player finds it near the [[Hotel Grand Lake]] using the [[Dowsing Machine]], she will offer a reward of one {{DL|Status ailment healing item|Lava Cookie}}, a specialty of Hoenn, possibly implying that her home is in that region.
* A [[Swimmer]] south of the Valor Lakefront says she would like to vacation in [[Hoenn]] because it has more routes on which to {{m|Surf}}.
* A woman west of [[Pastoria City]] used to work at the [[Weather Institute]] of Hoenn and will give out [[weather conditions|weather]]-changing [[TMs]] for [[Shard]]s.
* An old woman living at the base of [[Stark Mountain]] acts in the same way that another woman does on [[Route 111]] in Hoenn, insisting that the player keep healing his or her Pokémon with her in a creepy manner. Strangely, they both also live just north of a sandstorm-ridden desert.
* A Swimmer north of [[Sunyshore City]] wishes to visit Hoenn's seas.
* A [[Socialite]] in the Valor Lakefront restaurant will occasionally mention the sauce of her dish was made from spicy [[Cheri Berry|Cheri Berries]] with a Hoenn-style recipe.
* [[Bird Keeper]] Audrey on [[Route 225]] says she was born in [[Hoenn]].
* A woman in the {{Si|Battle Tower}} claims to have been from Hoenn, where another {{Ho|Battle Tower}} presides. In Platinum, her reference could mean either the Battle Tower itself or the [[Battle Frontier (Hoenn)|Battle Frontier]] that resided in Hoenn.
* A catalog in [[Rad Rickshaw]]'s Cycle Shop in [[Eterna City]] advertises the [[Mach Bike]] and [[Acro Bike]].
* In Stargazer Colosseum in {{g|Battle Revolution}}, some of the Pokémon in the last battle depend on which game is linked to the Wii. If Diamond is linked, one of the Pokémon is {{p|Groudon}}, Ruby's [[version mascot]], and if Pearl is linked, one of the Pokémon is {{p|Kyogre}}, Sapphire's version mascot.
* The [[Meister|fourteen foreign Pokédex entries]] are all from the respective translated versions of {{game|LeafGreen}}.

Poké Mart

2009-09-19T15:07:03Z

Adwajr:

[[File:PokemartHGSS.png|frame|right|Poké Mart in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver}}]]
A '''Poké Mart''' (Japanese: '''フレンドリィショップ''' ''Friendly Shop'') is a convenience store that sells supplies necessary for [[Pokémon training]]. A Poké Mart's stock varies with its location, such as Poké Balls being available in [[Viridian City]] and Ultra Balls being available in [[Cinnabar Island]]. Some sell more items than others. Poké Marts also buy many different items in exchange for [[Pokémon Dollars|money]]. Much of the merchandise sold at such stores is produced by either [[Silph Co.]] or the [[Devon Corporation]].

Almost all cities, both major and minor, have Poké Marts, the exception being some which have local medicine shops. Notably, the town players start at in each main game does not have a Poké Mart. An interesting thing to note is that in the {{Pkmn|anime}}, Poké Marts do not seem to be as ubiquitous as in the games.

When the [[Mystery Gift]] function on a game cartridge is activated, a deliveryman may appear in Poké Marts with gifts for the {{player}}. The deliveryman only appears when a Mystery Gift is received by the cartridge. In [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]] the deliveryman will give the player a range of items, including potions and [[berries]], when [[Badges]] are collected

In [[Generation IV]], there are two vendors in each Poké Mart. One will sell standard items, and the other will sell regional specialties. Unlike in previous games, rather than the items and their quantity varying by location, the merchandise's availability will increase with each [[Badge]] obtained. For example, if all Badges are under a player's possession, the same items will be found at each Poké Mart around [[Sinnoh]] and [[Johto]].

==Generation I==
[[Image:Oaks_parcel.PNG|thumb|right|Poké Mart in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]
The player will come across their first Poké Mart in [[Viridian City]], as they travel across the town. If the player enters the Poké Mart in [[Viridian City]] for the first time, the clerk will ask the player to deliver [[List of key items in Generation III#Parcel|Oak's Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]] in [[Pallet Town]]. The [[Old man (Kanto)|old man]] to the north of the city will not move until the packet is delivered to Professor Oak.

On {{rt|1}}, a man who works at the Poké Mart in Viridian City will give out a free sample of {{DL|Potion|Potion}} to trainers who chat with him.

==Generation II==
[[File:Poké Mart GSC interior.png|frame|right|Poké Mart in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}]]
The first Poké Mart is encountered in [[Cherrygrove City]], where they supply all the basic items, but as out of supply of [[Poké Ball]] which they will not have in stock until after the player visits [[Mr. Pokémon]] and challenges {{ga|Silver}} into a battle.

Every Poké Mart in Generation II has a different appearance, making the most of the transition from the original [[Game Boy]] to the [[Game Boy Color]].

==Generation III==
[[File:Pokemart inside (Ruby & Sapphire).png|thumb|right|Poké Mart in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.]]
[[File:Pokemart FRLG.png|thumb|right|Poké Mart in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}]]
In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, the Poké Mart is introduced by a salesman in [[Oldale Town]], who directs the player to the local Poké Mart before giving the player a [[Potion]] as a gift. Like in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, there are no supply of [[Poké Ball]]s, and they will not have in stock until after the player challenges their [[rival]] on {{rt|103}} and visits [[Professor Birch]] for the second time.

In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the player will come across their first Poké Mart in [[Viridian City]] and deliver [[List of key items in Generation III#Parcel|Oak's Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]], like in Generation I. On {{rt|1}}, a man who works at the Poké Mart in Viridian City will give out a free sample of {{DL|Potion|Potion}} to trainers who chat with him. In Generation III, there are the same Poké Marts found in Generation I.

A new feature is introduced to Poké Marts in Generation III, the ability to answer surveys inside the Poké Mart. These surveys will allow the activation to [[Mystery Gift]]. To activate the Mystery Gift feature in the Generation III games, players need only to walk up to the clipboard found at any Poké Mart and enter a phase. The clerk behind the counter will then inform them that the Mystery Gift feature has been activated, and it will be available on the main menu from that point on.

==Generation IV==
[[Image:Poke Mart.png|thumb|right|Poké Mart in {{game|Platinum}}]]
[[File:Poké Mart HGSS.png|thumb|right|Poké Mart in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}]]
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, the Poké Mart is introduced by the [[rival]] after taking their tour of [[Sandgem Town]]. The Poké Mart expands its supplies as the player wins [[badge|gym badges]]. There are two cashiers in this generation; the one on the right sells items that can be found in any town, while the one on the left sells goods unique to that location, different [[Poké Ball]]s or [[mail]] for example.

Whenever the player receives an [[event item]] via [[Nintendo event]], a deliveryman wearing a green uniform will appear next to the counter to give the player the item, whether it will be the [[Secret Key]], [[Member's Card]], [[Oak's Letter]], [[Azure Flute]] or the [[Ranger Net|Manaphy egg]].

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, there are the same Poké Marts found in Generation II. However the same method of buying items carries over from Sinnoh. In these games, the deliveryman wears a red uniform.

A Department Store is the largest shop in a region, selling a verity of different items, including item that can't be received in a regular Poké Mart. Every region has a Department Store in it; usually the more larger cities contain a Department Store. Department Stores have several levels, usually selling a different type of item on each level, like the second floor will be the Trainer's Market, while the fourth floor will sell rare and exclusive [[TM]]s. Every region has their own Department Store:

===Cianwood City Pharmacy===
{{main|Cianwood City}}
The Cianwood City Pharmacy is a small pharmacy located in [[Cianwood City]], [[Johto]]. It is over 500 years old and it sells a variety of rare goods. The Cianwood City Pharmacy sells remedies exclusive to the town. [[Jasmine]] will ask the player to fetch [[Amphy|her Ampharos]] some [[SecretPotion|medicine]] from there. After giving Jasmine the medicine, players can return to the Pharmacy to find that Potions and Full Heals are in stock.

===Two Island Market Stall===
{{main|Two Island (town)}}
[[Two Island (town)|Two Island]], rather than having a Poké Mart, has a market stall that sells special items. Similar to the Poké Marts in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, the variety of items increases with each advancement into the story. After beating the [[Kanto Elite Four]], certain items originating in Johto and Hoenn are available. Notably, the stall is mentioned as selling [[Rage Candy Bar]]s (here spelled Rage Candybar), though they never in stock in-game.

===Celestic Town Shop===
{{main|Celestic Town}}

In [[Celestic Town]], there is no Poké Mart, so an elderly couple run a shop out of their house. A man standing in the shop gives away three pairs of glasses to the {{player}} depending on the time of day. He gives away {{DL|In-battle effect item|Choice Specs}} in the morning, {{DL|Type-enhancing item|BlackGlasses}} during the day, and {{DL|In-battle effect item|Wise Glasses}} at night.

[[File:Pal pad add fc.png|frame|Adding a Friend Code in Platinum]]
The '''Pal Pad''' is a [[key item]] in [[Generation IV]] that allows players to register friends, who the player can then meet in the [[Pokecenter#Wireless_Club_2|Wi-Fi Club]] to {{pkmn|battle}} and [[trade]] [[Pokémon]]. The {{player}} can get the Pal Pad from [[Teala]] at the Wi-Fi Club in the basement of any [[Pokémon Center]] after obtaining the {{Badge|Coal}} in [[Pokémon Platinum]] or the {{Badge|Zephyr}} in [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]]
[[Image:Pal Pad sprite.png|frame|left]]
Each game has a unique [[Friend Code]], which can be exchanged with others to meet in the Wi-Fi Club. In order for a player to connect with a friend online, they must each register the other in their own Pal Pad. Registering a friend requires knowing their name and Friend Code; however, the name entered does not need to match the friend's actual player character's name. Friends can be registered manually by entering Friend Codes into the Pal Pad or automatically by exchanging Friend Codes with other players in the [[Union Room]].

Besides registering friends, the Pal Pad can be used to list registered friends and discover the player's own Friend Code. The player's Friend Code is obtained when signing onto to the Wi-Fi club for the first time.

'''Ash Ketchum''' (Japanese: '''サトシ''' ''Satoshi'') is the main character of both the [[Pokémon anime]] and the manga [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]. Ash is apparently based on the main character of [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions]], {{ga|Red}}. He shares his name with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His Japanese name can be taken to mean "wisdom" or "reason" (智). His English last name is a pun on the original English Pokémon motto, "[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]]."

{{spoilers}}
==In the anime==
===Character===
[[File:Ash flee spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]
[[Image:Anime Ash.png|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]
Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn and unskilled [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the irreverent {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal; however, and when he showed his willingness to give up his own safety to keep Pikachu safe, he formed a strong bond of friendship with his Pokémon. This would set his course for the future.

However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. He {{pkmn2|caught}} his [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] by luck, knew nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was reluctant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming a victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him due to his inexperience until [[EP105|he had proven himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.

Ash's dedication to his goal paid off over time, and after earning his first eight badges, he competed in the [[Indigo League]]. He advanced further in the rounds than Gary, making it to Round Five while Gary lost his fourth round. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skill, take on new challenges, and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions, triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{ho|Battle Frontier}}.

[[Image:SatoshiAG.png|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]
Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat and have Charizard mount a close-range attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without making it [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. At first, he was hesitant to let his Pokémon evolve to get stronger, but, as shown in the {{series|Advanced Generation}} and {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, he has no problem at all in allowing his team members to reach their evolved forms, except for Pikachu.
[[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|240px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]
Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. This would later be contradicted in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]''; however, when he starts chasing and shouting at Aipom for his hat being stolen in a manner similar to Mankey.

In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of [[Brock]]. The honor of "best friend" is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.

He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.
[[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|220px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]
Ash apparently has a close connection with [[Legendary Pokémon]], especially {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}} and {{an|Giratina}}. In the English dub of the [[The Power of One|second movie]], he was revealed to be "The Chosen One" - the one who would bring balance back to the world. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses [[aura]] again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.

He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash also carries around a broken [[Poké Ball]], of which the other half belongs to Gary and is a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry, as well as [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift, and also half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.

===Family===
[[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|Younger Ash]]
Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.

His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer that began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. There has been much discussion in the fandom as to the identity of Ash's father, though the writers have chosen to not focus on this aspect of Ash's life. Common characters put forward by fans for the role are [[Giovanni]], [[Professor Oak]] and {{an|Silver}}. 

An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced at the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.

Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.

===[[Pokémon]]===
[[File:Ash party DP133.png|thumb|280px|Ash and his current party with bandages]]
As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime's run. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome the toughest of challenges. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks, but he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care. Ash tends to battle in a fairly unorthodox manner as well, and his Pokémon often reflect this.

* '''Haunter''': Never officially caught Haunter, but it accompanied him back to [[Saffron City]] to aid in his Gym battle against [[Sabrina]] before it decided to remain with her
* '''Larvitar''': Cared for Larvitar as an egg and took it home to its mother; he never caught it in a ball, but he did use it in battle on at least one occasion.

==In the manga==
{{stub|Manga}}
The [[Electric Tale of Pikachu|manga version]] of Ash Ketchum is based on the anime version, but there are many differences between the two. For example, while the anime version of Ash is indifferent to love, romance, or members of the opposite gender (or same gender, some may argue), the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[May Oak]]. He's also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle/less extreme degree.

===Appearance===
Ash's appearence is much different in the manga, too. Ash wears a red jacket much like Red. He also wears a very different hat throughout the first volume. However, in the chapter of volume two (''[[DP02-02|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That Is the Question! ]]'') he wears a hat that resembles the hat he wears in the Pokémon anime. He appears with his {{AP|Pikachu}} on his shoulder.

==Trivia==
===Pokémon===
* Ash has captured each [[generation]]'s {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]]: {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Chikorita|Bayleef}}, {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Turtwig|Grotle}}.
* In both the [[Timeline of events in the anime#Kanto|Kanto]] and [[Timeline of events in the anime#Johto|Johto]] story arcs, Ash managed to capture all three of the starter Pokémon for both regions. This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}, while the other two were {{OP|May|Blaziken}} and {{OP|Brock|Marshtomp}}.
** However, he always owns all the starter Pokémon of the region not owned by another of {{ashfr|his friends}}.
* The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of [[:category:Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families]], namely {{AP|Phanpy|Donphan}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt|Glalie}} in [[Hoenn]], {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}} in [[Kanto]] and {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in [[Sinnoh]].
* He also always catches a local bird-type Pokémon of the region - {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, and {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh.
** Also, while not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved to their final forms under Ash's care, with the exception of Noctowl, who cannot evolve.
* All together, Ash has seen at least twenty-seven different species of legendary Pokémon, and at least ten of them multiple times.
* All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at any point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Monferno}} was formerly owned by Paul.
**All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Monferno evolved under Ash's ownership.)
* The three {{type2|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]] Ash owns are each at a different evolutionary stage. {{AP|Cyndaquil}} is in its first, {{AP|Monferno}} its second, and {{AP|Charizard}} its third.
* Ash has also has a tendency to capture crab-based Pokémon when new ones are available - {{AP|Kingler}} and {{AP|Corphish}}.
* Three of Ash's current party Pokémon have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]], these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}} and {{AP|Monferno}}.

===Challenges/Gym related===
* In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.
* During his adventures in Kanto, the Orange Islands, and Johto, Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case.
* Discounting [[Koga]], who was a [[Gym Leader]] at the time of Ash's battle against him, Ash has so far battled three [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei|Prima]], {{EF|Drake}} and [[Agatha]], losing to all three.
* The longest time between episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the 31-episode gap between ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]'' and ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]''.

===Miscellaneous===
[[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]
* Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.
** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an aubergine in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.
* Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the "red ash", "green ash", and "blue ash", for the first three games, but also the "indigo ash", for the [[Indigo Plateau]].

Pokémon Center

2009-09-13T17:20:24Z

Adwajr: /* Generation IV */

: ''For information about the retail store chain, see [[Pokémon Center (store)]].''
----
[[Image:FRLGCenter.png‎|200px|thumb|right| A Pokémon Center in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}]]
A '''Pokémon Center''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンセンター''' ''Pokémon Center'', abbreviated '''Pokécenter''') is a type of building that provide regulatory services for [[Pokémon Trainer]]s. Pokémon Centers are found in most towns and cities of the [[Pokémon world]], every major city or town holds a Pokémon Center. Pokémon Centers can be found outside towns, sometimes next to large forests or caves. Pokémon Centers are built where many Trainers gather and the area becomes popular. This is to accommodate those Trainers in need and serve as a resting spot. The most common service the Pokémon Center offers is healing [[Pokémon]] free of charge. They also serve as gathering places for Trainers.

{{m|Fly}} and {{m|Teleport}} always bring the player to the door of the Pokémon Center of a given town if one is present.

==In the games==
In the [[Pokémon games]], Pokémon Centers are important buildings found in most towns and cities, sometimes even on [[route]]s. Pokémon Centers are essential to Trainers as they provide many facilities and host most game mechanics. Non-player character Trainers and their own Pokémon are often found hanging around in Centers, offering general advice and information on the events in the town or area it is situated in. Though the setup of the Centers has varied slightly throughout each generation, all Pokémon Centers have these functions:

* A {{ga|nurse}} heals all party Pokémon in a matter of seconds. This service heals all status conditions, recharges [[HP]] and {{PP}} of all [[party]] Pokémon, free of charge. The nurse is located at the main counter just as the player enters the Pokémon Center.
* Pokémon Centers also host the Cable Club and the Union Room, which facilitates multiplayer gameplay. Originally, linked players could only battle and trade one another, but in later generations, players can [[mixing records|mix records]] and [[Wi-Fi Plaza|play games]] together.

* Trainers also have access to a [[PC]] so that they can change out their [[party]]. Players are able to deposit and withdraw Pokémon, along with ability to store and withdraw items and display their [[Hall of Fame]] details.
* In Generations I-III, saving the game inside a Pokémon Center is required to facilitate linking with console games such as Pokémon Stadium and Colosseum.

===Generation I===
[[Image:Pkmncenter.png‎|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]
In Generation I, a Pokémon Center consisted of two counters on a single floor. The counter on the left has a {{ga|nurse}} that will heal the player's Pokémon. The counter on the right contains the Cable Club, which allows players to link with each other. Talking to the women at the desk will allow the player to enter the Cable Club. Furthest to the right is the [[PC]] to deposit and withdraw Pokémon or items. Generation I also includes one of the few examples of a Pokémon Center that isn't in a town, which is the Pokémon Center in [[Route 10]] outside the entrance to the [[Rock Tunnel]]. Future generations employ rest houses that only offer healing services in areas similar to that.

====Cable Club====
The original link-up place was at the far end of the Pokémon Center in [[Generation I]] [[Kanto]]. Players can link together to simply battle each other in a one-on-one fight and trade Pokémon with each other. Two players linked by a first generation {{wp|Game Link Cable}} can enter the cable club. Pokémon Yellow featured an extended version of the Cable Club with the option to choose special battle rules or cups.

===Generation II===
[[Image:Gscpokecenter.PNG‎|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}]]
[[Image:PCCenter.gif|frame|left|Inside of the Pokémon Communications Center in {{game|Crystal}}, with dialog translated.]]
In Generation II, to accommodate greater linkup functionality, the Pokémon Centers of both [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] expanded to two floors, making it an introduction to Pokémon Centers. On the first floor remained the counter where the nurse would heal Pokémon, as well as a PC. While on the second floor the Cable Club resided.

====Cable Club====
Located upstairs in Pokémon Centers throughout [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]], this Cable Club consisted of three rooms. The Cable Club Trade Center facilitated trading, the Cable Club Colosseum allowed battling, and the Cable Club [[Time Capsule]] provided a way to trade Pokémon with the [[Generation I]] games. In order to rectify the lack of a female trainer sprite in the {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, before a {{ga|Kris|female player}} of {{game|Crystal}} can enter the Cable Club when linked to any game besides another Crystal version, she must have her clothes changed to those of a {{ga|Gold|male player}}. Two players can enter the Cable Club with a first generation {{wp|Game Link Cable}}.

====Johto Mobile Center====
Only in the Japanese Crystal version, the Pokémon Communication Center in [[Goldenrod City]]. Added was the ability to battle over mobile phones upstairs, and two new items downstairs: Pokémon News, a news machine which aggregated news about Trainer accomplishments and Trade Corner, which let a Trainer place a Pokémon up for trade. This process was in essence a prototype for the [[GTS]].

===Generation III===
[[File:RSEpokecenter.png|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}]]
[[File:FRLGCenterInside.png|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}]]
Pokémon Centers during Generation III remained in a two-floor setup, similar to the way they were in Generation II. The only difference is that the stairs to the second floor are larger and more noticeable, taking the shape of an escalator.

====Cable Club====
Similar to the Cable Club in Johto, the [[Hoenn]] Cable Club's Pokémon Center has a Cable Club Colosseum and a Cable Club Trade Center. Now four players can link with a third generation {{wp|Game Link Cable}} to battle in a [[double battle]]. A new feature was added to the Cable Club called the Cable Club Record Center, which allows two to four trainers to swap data. Similar to the Pokémon News in Crystal version, swapped trainer data shows up on [[television]] shows on televisions found all across Hoenn. Also, trainers' [[secret base]]s are copied over in the record mixing.

====Wireless Club====
The [[Generation III]] Kanto and {{v2|Emerald}} version Hoenn have a Wireless Club. The Wireless Club meets in the [[Union Room]], where up to 40 trainers may (in groups of five) talk and battle, as well as trade via a trading board similar to the Crystal version Trade Corner. The Cable Club's room has the standard Trade Center and Colosseum. Pokémon Emerald version's Cable Club also has the Record Center.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Dppokecenter.PNG‎|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}]]
[[File:HGSSPokéCenter.png|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}]]
In Generation IV, Pokémon Centers introduce a basement floor, utilizing Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Opposite the second floor escalator, another escalator downstairs to the basement appears. While the second floor retains the same functionality that it did during Generation III with four player on the DS's wireless connection, the basement floor is where players can link up with others around the world using {{wp|Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection}}. The first floor, as always, is where a player can heal their Pokémon and a [[PC]]. As of {{game|Platinum}} players can also challenge a Trainer or Trainers inside some Pokémon Centers.

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Pokémon Center was redesigned again. The second floor joined the main floor, connected by stairs. The functions remain the same. The basement floor was added with the same functions as Pokémon Platinum. The partner Pokémon will also jump onto the counter and return to it's Poké Ball. The Pokémon in the first slot will also be brought back out if it had fainted prior to healing.

====Wireless Club====
In [[Generation IV]], Sinnoh and Johto both have a wireless club just like [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]], but with a lack of a Record Center. These regions though has a Wi-Fi club downstairs, under the Pokémon Center, for people to connect to each other if they are on each other's [[Pal Pad]]. Here they can battle and trade, and they can talk to each other, not with a chat box, but with microphones.

====Wi-Fi Plaza====
The [[Wi-Fi Plaza]] is an enhancement to the Wi-Fi Club in Pokémon Platinum, HeartGold and SoulSilver. It is found downstairs in the Pokémon Center. Players from around the world can enter a "plaza" to make Poffins and play mini-games together via Nintendo Wi-Fi. The player can walk around the plaza and communicate with other players in the plaza. A leap in multiplayer gameplay is introduced, allowing up to twenty players to enter the Wi-Fi Plaza at a time. The player may only spend a certain amount of time at the Wi-Fi Plaza each day.

==In the anime==
[[Image:CeruleanPokecenter.jpg|thumb|right|The [[Cerulean City]] Pokémon Center as it appears in the anime]][[File:Pokémon Center heal.png|thumb|left|Ash's Pokémon going to be treated|220px]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, a [[Nurse Joy]] heads each Pokémon Center. The healing process takes place in real time, unlike in the games. All Pokémon Centers are connected and, in times of crisis, all Pokémon can be [[Pokémon storage system|transferred]] from one to another, as seen in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]''.

Pokémon Centers are designed for Trainers so they can rest between {{pkmn|training|activities}}. Trainers use Centers as gathering places, so they can share information about Pokémon. They also have access to video phones, PC with trading functions and most offer free food and lodging. Inside a typical Pokémon Center, one can find a front desk, a lobby (sometimes with vending machines), a [[Poké Ball]] room, an Emergency Room with plenty of beds for injured Pokémon, a recovery room, a waiting room, rooms for lodging, and a cafeteria. On the outside, they come in all shapes and sizes, but usually have a rather large ''P'' somewhere.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* For ''[[DP004|Dawn of a New Era!]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Pokémon Centers. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: ジョーイさん　あいたくなったら　ポケモンセンター ''Jōi-san aitaku nattara, Pokémon sentā.'' "When I want to meet Nurse Joy, Pokémon Center."
* If a Trainer gets at least four stars on their {{ga|Trainer card}} in [[Generation IV]], the nurse at the Pokémon Center will make special mention of this, and then refer to the player by name upon subsequent visits.
* A man in the [[Resort Area]] describes how Pokémon Centers come to be in an area. When [[Pokémon]] appear, Trainers will also come. When Trainers appear, Pokémon Centers will also come about.
* The Pokémon Center's theme music has remained essentially the same throughout the franchise. It is notably different at [[time|night time]] in [[Generation IV]].

[[File:PokéGear HGSS m.png|thumb|right|Blue PokéGear in HeartGold and SoulSilver]]
[[File:PokéGear HGSS f.png|thumb|Pink PokéGear in HeartGold and SoulSilver]]
'''Pokémon Gear''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンギア''' ''Pokémon Gear''), or more commonly just '''PokéGear''' (Japanese: '''ポケギア''' ''PokéGear''), is an electronic device found in [[Johto]]. It looks like a large, advanced wristwatch with a symbol resembling an S at the top, perhaps the [[Silph Co.]] logo, which gives clues to who actually manufactured the product. It was first introduced in [[Generation II]]; the [[Hoenn]] region's analog to the PokéGear appears to be the [[PokéNav]], while the [[Sinnoh]] counterpart is the [[Pokétch]].

The PokéGear is an important tool for {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, some see it necessary to have one on a Trainer's adventure. The main character of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} receives a PokéGear from their mother at the start of their journey. The {{player}} is able to have access to the PokéGear by selecting it from the [[menu]]. At that, it is easy to navigate through the PokéGear by selecting through four different functions located at the top-left of the screen. It displays the map of the region, names of previously fought Trainers, and the current time. It also allows players to call registered Trainers. Certain functions need to be unlocked during the game by receiving special expansion cards.

The PokéGear returns in the Generation IV remakes, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. The interface has been completely redesigned, using both screens on the [[Nintendo DS]]. The top will always display the time function on the PokéGear, while the touch screen will display the other different functions of the PokéGear, as well as selecting other functions using the touch screen. The outer aesthetics of the PokéGear have changed abruptly as well. The whole PokéGear is a flip top, while the bottom section of the PokéGear is used to scan special expansion cards to upgrade it with other functions. Its color skin is changeable between blue, pink and other four models.

==Functions==
The PokéGear's functionality comes from the several features and applications that can be installed in it, making it extensible. Many people are willing to give away special expansion cards to upgrade the PokéGear with other functions. In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, there are 4 available functions, two of which are included with the PokéGear. The rest are not available at the start but can be received at a later time.

===Time===
Included in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} with the PokéGear, the time function is the most basic feature. The PokéGear will {{wp|digital clock|digitally}} display the time of day using the {{wp|12-hour clock|12-hour AM/PM format}} as well as the day of the week. It runs off of the time the {{player}} input at the beginning of the game.

A glitch in Gold and Silver will change the day if the functions are scrolled through; this was addressed in Crystal.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the time will always be displayed on the top screen of the DS. However, unlike in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the time is displayed using the {{wp|24-hour clock|24-hour format}} instead of the {{wp|12-hour clock|12-hour format}} and runs on the [[Nintendo DS]]'s internal clock, much like the Pokétch. There is also a wireless signal measurement next to the time.

</gallery>

===Map===
Obtained after the player receives a map card for the PokéGear after taking a tour of [[Cherrygrove City]] from the old man, the map function of the PokéGear acts as a [[Town Map]], displaying a map of [[Johto]] and later [[Kanto]] with cities, towns and other important landmarks. It is the most basic of the map devices used by {{player}}, and is the navigational item for all [[Generation II]] games.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the mechanics of the map remain the same, only to have several added features, including the ability to zoom in to display areas of interest, with certain locations having a small flavor text. There is another feature that allows the player to add notes and markings to different locations, to allow the player to make notes about each area about the Pokémon in the area, any [[Apricorn]] or [[Berry]] trees, any special buildings, [[TM]] locations or any other notes. These notes will appear on the top screen when the player highlights that specific area on the map. Like the Marking Map on the [[Pokétch]], it also displays the current locations of all [[roaming Pokémon|Pokémon that travel around Johto]], including {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Suicune}}.

===Phone===
[[Image:PokéGearPhone.png|thumb|right|The phone function in [[Generation II]].]]
[[File:HGSSPokéGearPhone.png|thumb|left|The phone function in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.]]
Included in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} with the PokéGear, the phone function on the PokéGear will function like a cellphone, allowing the user to make calls to people that they've traded phone numbers with. This allows the player to talk to other characters and learn information from them, such as battling tips or when rare Pokémon appear. The player can also store numbers of other important people, like their [[mom]], or [[Professor Elm]]. Mom will also ring every so often, telling the {{player}} about the money she has saved (if opted for by the player) and occasionally buys decorations for the [[bedroom]], or items such as {{DL|Potion|Super Potion}}s. The phone function has a memory bank that can save up to ten people on the phone.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the phone function makes a return, and will be used in the same way. The player will able to select a person to call from the touch screen, and be able to call them. It is also able to store many more numbers in its memory than the same function in Generation II. The player's [[mom]] will once again provide her unique money-saving services.

===Radio===
Obtained after the Radio Card is received from a quiz host at the [[Johto Radio Tower]], radio function allows music to be played like a radio. The PokéGear functions as a radio that allows the player to listen to the radio stations within the game being broadcast from [[Johto Radio Tower]]. This allows the player to get tips from [[Professor Oak]] and [[DJ Mary]] on Oak's Pokémon Talk, affect how active wild Pokémon are by playing Pokémon March or Pokémon Lullaby on the Pokémon Music station, or listen to the Lucky Channel to keep track of the [[Johto Radio Tower]]'s lottery promotion.

When the {{player}} travels into [[Kanto]] in Crystal, he/she will not receive a signal for the radio, and must obtain an EXPN Card to tune into certain stations in [[Kanto]]; this is obtained from someone at the [[Kanto Radio Tower]] after restoring the power to Kanto. In Gold and Silver the EXPN Card is only required for the Poké Flute station.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the radio function makes a return, and is received in the same way it was in [[Generation II]]. Tuning can be done in two ways, moving the indicator around the globe using the stylus, or selecting one of the four radio stations. Similar radio stations appear.

[[Image:PokeGear anime.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Misty's PokéGear]]
In the anime, it is shown that the PokéGear has at least two designs, a black one and a white and pink one. Several characters in the anime own PokéGears:
*{{mov|Lisa}} lent hers to Ash so that he could keep in contact with Professor Oak in ''[[Spell of the Unown]]''.
*{{jo|Jimmy}}, {{jo|Marina}} and [[Vincent]] all own PokéGears. A plot point of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' is that it includes a tracking system to show where the other PokéGears currently are.
*[[Misty]] also owns one, so that she can keep in contact with [[The Sensational Sisters|her sisters]] at the [[Cerulean Gym]]. Its color scheme strongly resembles the pink PokéGear in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.

'''Lucas''' (Japanese: '''コウキ''' ''Kōki'') is the male player character of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. The female counterpart is {{ga|Dawn}}. If the player chooses Dawn, he will become {{Prof|Rowan}}'s assistant for the game. Lucas lives in [[Sandgem Town]] with his little sister, grandfather, and father - who works as an assistant of Professor Rowan. He is already the Professor's assistant at the beginning of the game. He also demonstrates to the player how to capture Pokémon by capturing a wild {{p|Bidoof}}.

The character {{Special|Diamond}} from the [[Pokémon Special]] manga is based off of the design of Lucas.

His English name is derived from "lux", the Latin root word for light, while his Japanese name is a reference to the Japanese word for "brightness" (光輝 ''kōki''), much like {{ga|Dawn|Hikari}} means light (光). It is also similar to 金剛石 '''''k'''ong'''ō'''se'''ki''''', a Japanese word for [[Pokémon Diamond|diamond]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Lucas.png|left|230px|thumb|Lucas in the anime]]
Lucas has a cameo appearance at the beginning of ''[[Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', in a battle against {{ga|Brendan}}.

===Pokémon===
This is a listing of Lucas' known Pokémon in the anime:

==Trivia==
[[File:Lucas anime.png|Anime artwork|thumb|220px]]
* Like {{ga|Pearl}} having one of his default Japanese names being [[Gary Oak|Shigeru]], one of Lucas's default names is [[Ash Ketchum|Satoshi]]. In English translations "Ash" is one of default names for Lucas, but there is no "Gary" among {{ga|Pearl}}'s names. However, this was apparently recognized in German and Korean translations, which also have Ash's and Gary's name as one of Lucas's and Pearl's names.
* One of Lucas's optional names include [[Todd Snap|Todd]] in English translation and トオル ''Tōru'' (Todd's Japanese name) in Japanese translations. Other language versions do not catch this. Another name from the show is {{jo|Jimmy}}. This one, however is probably coincidental.
**Another of Lucas's optional names is Mark, the name of the male protagonist from the Game Boy TCG games.
* The majority of his Japanese default names are shared with {{ga|Red}} from [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]].
* Unlike most game characters with anime counterparts, the clothes of Lucas's anime counterpart are of different colors to his.
* Lucas is 4'7" (145 cm) tall and weighs 83.8 lbs (38 kg).
* Lucas and Dawn are asked if they are a couple by [[Mars]] during the Lake Acuity battle: ''"So what is it? Are you some [[FortuneShipping|lovey-dovey couple]] to the rescue?"''
* After the {{player}} defeats the {{DL|Elite Four|Elite Four|Sinnoh Elite Four}} and becomes the [[Champion]], Lucas will stay at the front side of [[Rowan]]'s laboratory in [[Sandgem Town]] (if the player chose Dawn). If the player has set the birthday date on the DS Settings, he'll say the following in conversation when talked to on that day:

"''Hey,<player's name>? Is it maybe your birthday today?''"

If "Yes":

"''I thought so! Congratulations, <player's name>! You know, I'm glad we're friends!''"

If "No":

"''Huh? It isn't? Now, what made me think it was your birthday? Freaky weird.''"
*{{ga|Dawn}} and Lucas were shown to be holding [[Repeat Ball]] in their {{v2|Platinum}} artwork, while {{ga|May}} and {{ga|Brendan}} are holding a [[Premier Ball]] in their {{v2|Emerald}} artwork.
*The position of his {{v2|Platinum}} sprite looks similar to the position of {{ga|Kris}}'s Sugimori artwork in {{v2|Crystal}}.

Poké Mart

2009-08-09T13:02:59Z

Adwajr: /* Generation III */

[[File:PokemartHGSS.png|frame|right|Poké Mart in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver}}]]
A '''Poké Mart''' (Japanese: '''フレンドリィショップ''' ''Friendly Shop'') is a convenience store that sells supplies necessary for [[Pokémon training]]. A Poké Mart's stock varies with its location, such as Poké Balls being available in [[Viridian City]] and Ultra Balls being available in [[Cinnabar Island]]. Some sell more items than others. Poké Marts also buy many different items in exchange for [[Pokémon Dollars|money]]. Much of the merchandise sold at such stores is produced by either [[Silph Co.]] or the [[Devon Corporation]].

Almost all cities, both major and minor, have Poké Marts, the exception being some which have local medicine shops. Notably, the town players start at in each main game does not have a Poké Mart. An interesting thing to note is that in the {{Pkmn|anime}}, Poké Marts do not seem to be as ubiquitous as in the games.

When the [[Mystery Gift]] function on a game cartridge is activated, a deliveryman may appear in Poké Marts with gifts for the {{player}}. The deliveryman only appears when a Mystery Gift is received by the cartridge.

In [[Generation IV]], there are two vendors in each [[Sinnoh]] Poké Mart. One will sell standard items, and the other will sell regional specialties. Unlike in previous games, rather than the items and their quantity varying by location, the merchandise's availability will increase with each [[Badge]] obtained. For example, if all Badges are under a player's possession, the same items will be found at each Poké Mart around Sinnoh.

==Generation I==
[[Image:Oaks_parcel.PNG|thumb|right|Poké Mart in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]
The player will come across their first Poké Mart in [[Viridian City]], as they travel across the town. If the player enters the Poké Mart in [[Viridian City]] for the first time, the clerk will ask the player to deliver [[List of key items in Generation III#Parcel|Oak's Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]] in [[Pallet Town]]. The [[Old man (Kanto)|old man]] to the north of the city will not move until the packet is delivered to Professor Oak.

On {{rt|1}}, a man who works at the Poké Mart in Viridian City will give out a free sample of {{DL|Potion|Potion}} to trainers who chat with him.

==Generation II==
[[File:Poké Mart GSC.png|frame|right|Poké Mart in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}]]
The first Poké Mart is encountered in [[Cherrygrove City]], where they supply all the basic items, but as out of supply of [[Poké Ball]] which they will not have in stock until after the player visits [[Mr. Pokémon]] and challenges {{ga|Silver}} into a battle.

==Generation III==
[[File:Pokemart FRLG.png|thumb|right|Poké Mart in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}]]
In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, the Poké Mart is introduced by a salesman in [[Oldale Town]], who directs the player to the local Poké Mart before giving the player a [[Potion]] as a gift. Like in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, there are no supply of [[Poké Ball]]s, and they will not have in stock until after the player challenges their [[rival]] on {{rt|103}} and visits [[Professor Birch]] for the second time.

In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the player will come across their first Poké Mart in [[Viridian City]] and deliver [[List of key items in Generation III#Parcel|Oak's Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]], like in Generation I. On {{rt|1}}, a man who works at the Poké Mart in Viridian City will give out a free sample of {{DL|Potion|Potion}} to trainers who chat with him. In Generation III, there are the same Poké Marts found in Generation I.

A new feature is introduced to Poké Marts in Generation III, the ability to answer surveys inside the Poké Mart. These surveys will allow the activation to [[Mystery Gift]]. To activate the Mystery Gift feature in the Generation III games, players need only to walk up to the clipboard found at any Poké Mart and enter a phase. The clerk behind the counter will then inform them that the Mystery Gift feature has been activated, and it will be available on the main menu from that point on.

==Generation IV==
[[Image:Poke Mart.png|thumb|right|Poké Mart in {{game|Platinum}}]]
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, the Poké Mart is introduced by the [[rival]] after taking their tour of [[Sandgem Town]]. The Poké Mart expands its supplies as the player wins [[badge|gym badges]]. There are two cashiers in this generation; the one on the right sells items that can be found in any town, while the one on the left sells goods unique to that location, different [[Poké Ball]]s or [[mail]] for example.

Whenever the player receives an [[event item]] via [[Nintendo event]], a man wearing a green uniform will appear next to the counter to give the player the item, whether it will be the [[Secret Key]], [[Member's Card]], [[Oak's Letter]], [[Azure Flute]] or the [[Ranger Net|Manaphy egg]].

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, there are the same Poké Marts found in Generation II. However, their appears to be some certain events that happen after leaving the [[Violet City]] Poké Mart. One of the [[Kimono Girl]]'s appear to talk to the player about something.

A Department Store is the largest shop in a region, selling a verity of different items, including item that can't be received in a regular Poké Mart. Every region has a Department Store in it; usually the more larger cities contain a Department Store. Department Stores have several levels, usually selling a different type of item on each level, like the second floor will be the Trainer's Market, while the fourth floor will sell rare and exclusive [[TM]]s. Every region has their own Department Store:

The Cianwood City Pharmacy is a small pharmacy located in [[Cianwood City]], [[Johto]]. It is over 500 years old and it sells a variety of rare goods. The Cianwood City Pharmacy sells remedies exclusive to the town. [[Jasmine]] will ask the player to fetch [[Amphy|her Ampharos]] some [[SecretPotion|medicine]] from there. After giving Jasmine the medicine, players can return to the Pharmacy to find that Potions and Full Heals are in stock.

===Celestic Town Shop===
{{main|Celestic Town}}

In [[Celestic Town]], there is no Poké Mart, so an elderly couple run a shop out of their house. A man standing in the shop gives away three pairs of glasses to the {{player}} depending on the time of day.

'''Minun''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マイナン''' ''Minun'') is an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
{{P|Plusle}} and Minun bear a remarkable resemblance to {{P|Pichu}} and {{P|Pikachu}}. Minun have short tails with flat minus signs on the end of them, while their cheeks and the tips of their ears are blue, and have minus signs voided in the middle.

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

====Special abilities====
Minun creates electrical pom-poms and sparks to cheer on its partners.

Minun's stats are geared towards defense whereas Plusle's stats are sweeper-oriented. Minun's Movepool is nearly identical to Plusle, except that Minun learns {{m|Charm}} and {{m|Trump Card}} and lacks {{m|Last Resort}}.

===Behavior===
Minun is a cheerful and supportive Pokémon, always encouraging comrades in battle by using the spark pouches in its cheeks. It is very compassionate towards its friends, and is known to cry upon witnessing a friend lose a battle. They are commonly referred to as cheerleaders for these actions.

The same Minun and Plusle appear again in ''[[AG052|Cheer Pressure]]'', where Thatcher is training them to be cheerleaders.

[[Elijah]] used Minun and Plusle as actors in ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action]]''. The plot of the movie was that Pikachu, Plusle and Minun were setting out to rescue Princess {{p|Kirlia}} from an evil {{p|Exploud}}.

Minun and Plusle also appear as supporting characters in the film ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'', serving as the story's comic relief. The pair helps [[Tory Lund]] to overcome his fear of Pokémon.

==Trivia==
*Minun shares the same [[species]] name with its partner {{p|Plusle}}. They are both known as Cheering Pokémon.
*Minun is one of four Pokémon (the other being {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Slowking}} and {{p|Dunsparce}}) able to learn the move {{m|Trump Card}}.
* Despite being based on a rodent-like creature, it is unable to breed with Pokémon from the {{egg3|Ground}} (common to mammals); it is exclusive to the {{egg3|Fairy}}.
* {{p|Pachirisu}}, Plusle, and Minun are the only non-legendary Electric-type Pokémon with no evolutions or form differences.
* Minun is considered by many fans to be a [[novelty Pokémon]] due to the fact it's inclusion in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} appeared to be simply to showcase the [[double battle]] system which was introduced in [[Generation III]].
* Minun's {{a|Minus|ability}} is useless in single battles, and is only useful in double battles if Minun is partnered with {{p|Plusle}}.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on a {{wp|mouse}} or {{wp|rabbit}}.

====Name origin====
Minun's name is based on ''minus'', referring to something with a negative electrical charge.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Minun
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Negapi - Comes from ''negative'' and possibly ''pikapika'', the Japanese onomatopoeia for sparkling.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 마이농 ''Minong''

'''Plusle''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''プラスル''' ''Prasle'') is an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Plusle and {{P|Minun}} bear a remarkable resemblance to {{P|Pichu}} and {{P|Pikachu}}. Plusle have short tails with flat plus signs on the end of them, while their cheeks are circular with plus signs voided in the middle.

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

====Special abilities====
Plusle creates electrical pom-poms and sparks to cheer on its partners.

Plusle's abilities in battle are basically the same as its cousin Pikachu except that Plusle has more Special Attack power than Pikachu (without a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Light Ball}}) and is slightly faster. However, Plusle is unable to use {{m|Volt Tackle}} and {{m|Slam}}. On the other hand, Plusle learns more support moves than Pikachu, such as {{m|Baton Pass}}, {{m|Fake Tears}}, and {{m|Copycat}}.

===Behavior===
Plusle is a cheerful and supportive Pokémon, always encouraging comrades in battle by using the spark pouches in its cheeks. It is very compassionate towards its friends, and is known to cry upon witnessing a friend lose a battle. They are commonly referred to as cheerleaders for these actions.

===Habitat===

[[Solana]]'s Plusle also appears with her each time she herself makes an appearance, except ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]] [[DP072|and Two]]''. It is the only one so far not to be seen with a Minun partner.

==Trivia==
* Oddly, Plusle can learn {{m|Fake Tears}} at both Level 21 and 31, but its partner {{p|Minun}} can only learn it once, at level 31.
* Plusle shares the same [[species]] name with its partner {{p|Minun}}. They are both known as Cheering Pokémon.
* Despite being based on a rodent-like creature, it is unable to breed with Pokémon from the {{egg3|Ground}} (common to mammals); it is exclusive to the {{egg3|Fairy}}.
* {{p|Pachirisu}}, Plusle, and Minun are the only non-Legendary Electric-type Pokémon with no evolutions or Form changes.
* Plusle is considered by many fans to be a [[novelty Pokémon]] due to the fact its inclusion in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} appeared to be simply to showcase the [[double battle]] system which was introduced in [[Generation III]].
* Plusle's {{a|Plus|ability}} is useless in single battles, and is only useful in double battles if Plusle is partnered with {{p|Minun}}.

===Origin===
It seems to be based on a {{wp|mouse}} or {{wp|rabbit}}.
====Name origin====
Plusle's name is based on ''plus'', as in something with a positive electrical charge. It also appears to have ''pulse'' in its name.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Plusle
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Posipi - Contains ''positive'', as in a positive electrical charge.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 플러시 ''Plusie''

Three Swinub were featured in ''[[DP063|Hot Springing a Leak!]]''; they were owned by [[Leona]], another one of {{an|Dawn}}'s childhood friends.

It was also seen as part of [[Lila]]'s famous "tiger lily smile" in ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]''.

{{an|Dawn}} captured a {{tp|Dawn|Swinub}} in ''[[DP084|Hungry For the Good Life!]]'', and it evolved into Piloswine in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle!]]''. It evolved into Mamoswine in ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]''.

==Trivia==
*The only time that Swinub's eyes have been seen open was during the battle between [[Pryce]] and [[Erika]] in Round 163 of [[Pokémon Special]] when Pryce ordered his to dodge Erika's {{p|Skiploom}}'s attack.
*Swinub is one of the few Pokémon with the same sprite in both Gold and Silver.
*Before the introduction of {{p|Mamoswine}}, Swinub and its evolved form {{p|Piloswine}} were very similar to {{p|Mankey}} and {{p|Primeape}}. Both are the combination of a pig and another animal, had only two evolutionary stages, the final form's English name began with "P", and both are the pigs of their generations followed by {{p|Spoink}} and {{p|Grumpig}}.
*Swinub's shiny form has changed frequently; it was blue in [[Generation II]], gray in [[Generation III]], and green in [[Generation IV]].
*As part of a very obvious [[April Fool's Day 2009|April Fool's Day]] joke in 2009, [[Bulbanews]] reported that a Swinub was found in Kelang, an island off {{wp|Indonesia}}. It was then taken to {{wp|Area 51}}.

===Origin===
Swinub's size/appearance seem to be based off a mix of a Peruvian {{wp|guinea pig}}, and a {{wp|wild pig|wild boar}} piglet. It may also be based on wordplay of the {{wp|groundhog}}. Both are similar in characteristics and behavior, and the two words that make up Groundhog can be broken down to describe Swinub. Ground is Swinub's type, and Hog is another word for pig.

====Name origin====
Swinub's name is a combination of ''{{wp|swine}}'' and ''nub'', referring to its lump-like nose. Its Japanese name may be a combination of 瓜坊 ''uribō'', a wild boar piglet, and ぶうぶう ''bū bū'', an {{wp|onomatopoeia}} for oinking.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Quiekel - From ''quieken'' (sounds that pigs make) and ''Ferkel'' (piglet).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Marcacrin - From ''marcassin'' (wild boar piglet) and ''crin'' (horse hair).

Idol (Trainer class)

2009-06-20T11:03:14Z

Adwajr:

An '''Idol''' (Japanese: '''アイドル''' ''Idol'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation IV]] games. In {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, there is only one proper trainer from Idol class, an Idol Grace, who is found in the [[Jubilife City]] [[Jubilife TV|TV station]]. In {{game|Platinum}}, she will show up inside [[Oreburgh City]]'s [[Pokémon Center]] after you defeat [[Gym Leader]] [[Gardenia]] in [[Eterna City]]. Other Idols can be randomly battled at [[Battle Tower (Sinnoh)|Battle Tower]]. They are teenage girls dressed up in elaborate pink pop star outfits with a microphone.

They mostly use cute Pokémon from the {{egg3|Fairy}}, such as {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Clefairy}}, in battle.

'''Floatzel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フローゼル''' ''Flowsel'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Buizel}} starting at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Floatzel appears to be based on an otter or weasel, with two pointed blue fins on its arms and two tails, as with its pre-evolution, Buizel. The yellow flotation device it had as a Buizel appears to have grown and now functions as a boat. It gives the impression of a swimmer with a towel draped around its shoulders. If Floatzel laid on its back, the structure round its neck could also be interpreted as a sort of inflatable dinghy using its tails much like its pre-evolution, as a propeller and its fins as oars. These small fins on Buizel's forelimbs grown into fully-fledged fins that are used for {{m|Razor Wind}} attacks.

====Gender differences====
Male Floatzel have two white spots on their back, whereas females have only one.

====Special abilities====
Floatzel's abilities are essentially the same as Buizel's, but stronger. Floatzel can now attack with {{m|Crunch}} and {{m|Ice Fang}}. As a fully evolved Pokémon, it can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}. Its floatation sac can inflate to look like a {{wp|life vest}}; in a similar way Buizel can expand its sac, as seen in [[DP083]].

===Behavior===
===Habitat===
They tend to inhabit swift-moving rivers.
===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Floatzel may be a fish-eater, but it is unknown whether this is true. Floatzel is occasionally found with the {{b|Wacan}}.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Floatzel.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Floatzel in the anime.]]
Floatzel made its debut in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 1)]]''. [[Kellyn]] used his Capture Styler on a wild Floatzel so he could use it to escape from a group of {{p|Sharpedo}} that belonged to [[J|Hunter J]]'s Henchmen.

[[Crasher Wake]] used {{TP|Crasher Wake|a Floatzel|Floatzel}} against [[Ash's Buizel]] in ''[[DP083|A Crasher Course in Power!]]''.

[[Conway]] used a Floatzel in the second leg of the Pokémon Triathlon in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team]]''.

{{Animedexbody|DP083|Floatzel|Ash's Pokédex|Floatzel, the Sea Weasel Pokémon and the evolved form of {{p|Buizel}}. Its sac developed as an aid for chasing aquatic prey, Floatzel can also carry people on its back.}}

==Trivia==
*Floatzel is tied with {{p|Starmie}} as the fastest Water-type Pokémon, with a base speed of 115.
*Despite the fact that both it and its pre-evolution {{p|Buizel}} are {{type2|Water}}s and have two tails (let alone just one), the only manner in which Floatzel can have {{m|Aqua Tail}} is through a move tutor in Platinum.
*In Platinum, Floatzel's sprite has a similar pose to [[Crasher Wake]], who uses a Floatzel in battle. It also has the same animation and pose as {{p|Azumarill}} in this game.
*When Floatzel's maximum speed is combined with its ability, Swift Swim, it has the highest speed among all Pokémon.
*Though the anime has shown Floatzel many times using its flotation device, there has yet to be any attack or ability in the games requiring it.

===Origin===
Floatzel is based off an {{wp|otter}}, which is in the same family as weasels, however it resembles weasels a little more closely than it does otters.
====Name origin====
Floatzel's name comes from the words ''float'' and ''{{wp|weasel}}''.
Its Japanese name may come from the English words ''flow'' or ''float'' and ''weasel''.

'''Floatzel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フローゼル''' ''Flowsel'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Buizel}} starting at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Floatzel appears to be based on an otter or weasel, with two pointed blue fins on its arms and two tails, as with its pre-evolution, Buizel. The yellow flotation device it had as a Buizel appears to have grown and now functions as a boat. It gives the impression of a swimmer with a towel draped around its shoulders. If Floatzel laid on its back, the structure round its neck could also be interpreted as a sort of inflatable dinghy using its tails much like its pre-evolution, as a propeller and its fins as oars. These small fins on Buizel's forelimbs grown into fully-fledged fins that are used for {{m|Razor Wind}} attacks.

====Gender differences====
Male Floatzel have two white spots on their back, whereas females have only one.

====Special abilities====
Floatzel's abilities are essentially the same as Buizel's, but stronger. Floatzel can now attack with {{m|Crunch}} and {{m|Ice Fang}}. As a fully evolved Pokémon, it can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}. Its floatation sac can inflate to look like a {{wp|life vest}}; in a similar way Buizel can expand its sac, as seen in [[DP083]].

===Behavior===
===Habitat===
They tend to inhabit swift-moving rivers.
===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Floatzel may be a fish-eater, but it is unknown whether this is true. Floatzel is occasionally found with the {{b|Wacan}}.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Floatzel.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Floatzel in the anime.]]
Floatzel made its debut in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 1)]]''. [[Kellyn]] used his Capture Styler on a wild Floatzel so he could use it to escape from a group of {{p|Sharpedo}} that belonged to [[J|Hunter J]]'s Henchmen.

[[Crasher Wake]] used {{TP|Crasher Wake|a Floatzel|Floatzel}} against [[Ash's Buizel]] in ''[[DP083|A Crasher Course in Power!]]''.

[[Conway]] used a Floatzel in the second leg of the Pokémon Triathlon in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team]]''.
