'''Ash's Staravia''' (Japanese: '''サトシのムクバード''' ''Satoshi's Mukubird'') is the first [[Pokémon]] that [[Ash Ketchum]] [[captured Pokémon|caught]] in the [[Sinnoh]] region. He is voiced by 古島清孝 ''[[Kiyotaka Furushima]]'' and by [[Michele Knotz]] (as Starly) and [[Sarah Natochenny]] (as Staravia) in English.

==History==
Ash caught it as a {{p|Starly}} in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation]]'' while searching for {{AP|Pikachu}}, who was missing due to the antics of [[Team Rocket]]. [[Dawn's Ambipom|Ash's Aipom]] was swinging through the trees and accidentally bumped into Starly, so the two Pokémon battled. Weakened by Aipom, Starly was captured and immediately used in the search for Pikachu.

In ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide]]'', Starly battled another Starly belonging to [[Paul]] and lost. Despite proving itself to be more powerful than Ash's Starly, Paul released his back into the wild, apparently disappointed with its performance.

In ''[[DP013|A Staravia is Born]]'', Starly evolved into a {{p|Staravia}} during a battle with [[Team Rocket]]. Evolving has allowed it to grow much stronger and he is very useful in searches.

Staravia was the only of Ash's Pokémon who didn't participate in Ash's first Sinnoh [[Gym]] battle, however, Staravia helped out in Ash's second Sinnoh Gym battle, defeating [[Gardenia]]'s {{p|Cherubi}}. After seeing [[Reggie]]'s {{p|Staraptor}} use the powerful {{m|Brave Bird}} attack, Ash was inspired to teach it to Staravia. In the third Sinnoh Gym Battle, Staravia defeated [[Maylene]]'s {{p|Machoke}} and {{p|Meditite}}.

Unlike [[Ash's Pidgeot]] or [[Ash's Noctowl]], Staravia is closer in use to [[Ash's Swellow]] in that, while Pidgeot was mainly used for scouting purposes, Staravia is often used in battles and is one of Ash's stronger team members.

==Moves used==
* {{m|Wing Attack}}
* {{m|Quick Attack}}
* {{m|Aerial Ace}}
* {{m|Whirlwind}}
* {{m|Gust}}
* {{m|Brave Bird}}

==Trivia==
*Despite the fact Ash's Staravia and other members of his evolution family know {{m|Gust}}, it is impossible for {{p|Starly}}, {{p|Staravia}}, or {{p|Staraptor}} to learn it in the games. This error was also present in the Japanese version. The dub changed it to {{m|Whirlwind}} in Starly's initial appearance, but left it as Gust until ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family]]'', when it was dubbed as Whirlwind again, and has been since.
*For [[DP015]], [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Staravia. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: ムックルが　ムクムクしんか　ムクバード ''{{tt|Mukkuru|Starly}} mukumuku-evolved; {{tt|Mukubird|Staravia}}''
*Judging by the pattern on Staravia's head, it can be assumed that this Pokémon is male. However, his gender has not been officially confirmed, as no other Staravia have been seen to compare it to. However, in the dub, when Starly (then) and Pikachu meet for the [[DP003|first time]], Ash refers to Staravia as a male.
*Staravia was the 40th Pokémon species Ash has owned, counting {{AP|Larvitar}}, {{AP|Haunter}}, and {{AP|Raticate}}.

'''Ash's 30 Tauros''' (Japanese: '''サトシのケンタロス''' ''Satoshi's Kentaros'') were caught during [[Ash Ketchum]]'s travels in the [[Kanto]] region. Their voice actor in both Japanese and English is 小西克幸 ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]''.

==History==
Ash spent some time in the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] in the episode ''[[EP035|The Legend of Dratini]]''. He was attempting to [[captured Pokémon|catch]] as many [[Pokémon]] as possible, though all he ended up with were 30 Tauros as they always ran in front of his Safari Balls when he tried to make a catch. As Ash had six Pokémon with him at the time, they were sent to [[Professor Oak]]'s laboratory. This episode has never been aired outside of Japan due to the firearms being a plot point. The dub provides no explanation for their appearance.

The Tauros' main characteristic is stampeding. This means that the lab is a good place for them, as there is plenty of space to run around. They have proved useful at the laboratory, stampeding to wake up [[Ash's Snorlax]] in times of crisis. However, the stampeding has caused mishaps. The first time Ash returned to [[Pallet Town]], they stampeded through a fence. Later, they stampeded through the lab, leaving a mess and a large hole in the wall.

Ash began using Tauros when he needed a replacement for Snorlax for his battle for the Winner's Cup of the [[Orange League]] in ''[[EP111|Hello Pummelo]]'' and ''[[EP112|Enter The Dragonite]]''. He sent the now-sleeping {{AP|Snorlax}} to Oak's for one of his Tauros to see if the "beginner's luck" strategy he had used in the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]] with {{AP|Kingler}} and {{AP|Muk}} would work again. After an initial failure when hit with a {{p|Gengar}}'s {{m|Confuse Ray}}, Tauros managed to defeat a {{p|Venusaur}} on his own during the battle, subsequently helping to weaken [[Drake's Dragonite]] for Pikachu to land the final blow. He then stayed in his [[Poké Ball]] until Ash returned him to the herd when he returned to Pallet Town.

The Tauros was used again in early [[Johto]] during the Pokémon Swap Meet. One of the events was a Tauros-battling competition, which Ash entered after exchanging {{AP|Heracross}} for Tauros. He ended up winning the competition- subsequently receiving multiple offers to trade Tauros before he explained that he wasn't there to trade-, but sent Tauros back to Professor Oak in the next episode.

On Ash's return from [[Hoenn]], the Tauros were seen running towards him with his other Pokémon. However, they were just stampeding as usual, and Ash had to be rescued before he could be reunited with the other Pokémon. He used Tauros again in the battle against [[Salon Maiden Anabel]] in ''[[AG169|Talking a Good Game]]'' and ''[[AG170|Second Time's the Charm]]''.

==Moves used==
*{{m|Horn Attack}}
*{{m|Earthquake}}
*{{m|Take Down}}
*{{m|Fissure}}
*{{m|Double Team}}

==Trivia==
*[[Brock]] caught a Tauros at the same time that Ash caught his first Tauros. Because of this, some believe that Brock should own a Tauros, and the writers forgot about it in subsequent episodes. However, he caught it using one of Ash's Safari Balls, and therefore it is one of the 30 belonging to Ash.
*Tauros is the first confirmed male Pokémon to be caught by a main character, due to it only being able to be male. Later on, [[Ash's Buizel]] has been confirmed to be male, while [[Brock's Happiny]], [[Ash's Bayleef]], and [[Dawn's Ambipom]] have been confirmed to be female. [[Ash's Butterfree]], {{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Charizard}}, and [[ Brock's Ludicolo]] have all shown intrests in female pokemon, which indicates hat they are male. [[Ash's Pikachu]], {{AP|Heracross}}, {{AP|Totodile}} and {{AP|Corphish}} have evidence that they are male, while [[Dawn's Buneary]] has evidence that it is female, though it is hard to confirm at this time.
*Despite them all being captured in a green Safari Ball, they all have regular Poké Balls when Ash calls them into battle.
*It has never been revealed whether Ash uses the same Tauros whenever one of them is transferred to him or if Professor Oak simply sends him a random one each time.
*Tauros can learn Fissure through [[TM27]] in [[Generation I]], but it can't learn it in the following Generations.

'''Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution''' (Japanese: '''ワタルとあかいギャラドス！''' ''{{tt|Wataru|Lance}} and the Red Gyarados!'') is episode 235 of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on February 7, 2002 and in the United States on February 15, 2003.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
The gang down the road to Mahogany Town when all of a sudden Pikachu feels sick, then Togepi. Ash starts to wonder what's going on, but he thinks it's probably just a thing that comes and goes. Then some bug Pokémon drop in near Misty, however, they appear sick too. As for a Sandshrew and a Oddish as they come out. They all wonder what's going on. The gang reaches to the Lake of Rage and try to see if there's anything about the lake that could be doing this. Then all of a sudden a red Gyarados appears from the water. This startles everyone, first because it's a Gyarados, and second because it's red. After moments of glimpsing at the Gyarados, it fires out a Hydro Pump towards Ash and company, which misses.

Soon a group of people come by, which at all don't look too friendly. Ash notices it's Team Rocket and the main person simply laughs wondering what a bunch of kids are doing. He sends out a Fearow to take care of them and Ash releases Totodile. Just before Totodile can do anything, he goes tired all of a sudden but not the Fearow. The Fearow goes in with a Drill Peck but just before the Pokémon can hit, a beam fires towards the Fearow and the one responsible was a Dragonite and a trainer. Seeing this, the Rockets decide to flee. The trainer takes them to another part of the forest around the lake and Ash thanks him. Misty notices that the man is Lance, the same Lance in the Pokémon League. They all wonder what he's doing in a place like this and comment on their progress of becoming a Pokémon Master. One last thing Ash mentions is to help the Red Gyarados, which immediately Lance says no. He explains that it would be too dangerous for Ash, after all these Rockets are no ordinary Rockets. Ash protests, but Lance still says no.

Somewhere else along the forest around the lake stumbles Jessie, James, and Meowth, groaning about their next meal and win. Meowth notices something in the distance that looks like a building. With a building, there's got to be some food around there they can swipe. The building however is a Team Rocket HQ, and inside is the man from before who addresses himself to a superior, Professor Sebastian. This other major Rocket in particular is Tyson, assigned to capture the famous Red Gyarados. Upon further inspection of the security systems, Jessie, James and Meowth are caught on camera. After walking in a hall, they fall for a trap that seals them in a hallway behind two walls of bars. Then Tyson comes by only to see who exactly are they. Jessie, and James say they're a part of Team Rocket obviously but a flunkie comes by to say they're not anywhere on the roster list. Jessie and James negiotiate for a while and convince Tyson that they're the important ones.

While the gang walks along the road to Mahogany once more, Brock tries to talk with Ash. However Ash seems like he can't stand there and wait for things to go good. He wants to help the Gyarados, whether or not dangerous.

Back at the base, a boat's getting ready for the operation to begin. Just behind one of the docking hangers, Lance hides and waits for a chance. An unsuspecting Rocket walks by and Lance grabs him, takes his uniform and goes onto the boat disguised. Back on the boat, Prof. Sebastian explains that Project R is about to begin, but he needs a couple of "expendable" Rockets for the first part of the job. Tyson knows the perfect ones. He goes over toward the mess hall where Jessie, James, Meowth, and Wobbuffet are stuffing their faces and he says that they get an "important" assignment, find the red Gyarados. Everyone assembles on deck, Jessie, James, and Meowth are off to find the red Gyarados. When they go down there, they all start to argue about this whole Gyarados thing. Soon enough, an angry red Gyarados comes towards them and Jessie, James, and Meowth swim off back to the boat, where all of them break surface. As soon as the target is on sight, a Rocket handling a net gun fires it and surrounds the red Gyarados and Jessie, James, and Meowth! Prof. Sebastian gives a signal and a power shock is delivered through the netting, shocking both Gyarados and the Rockets.

The boat starts to go with the catch but Ash and company comes just in time on the scene and he sends out Totodile, Misty with Poliwhirl. They both swim to the net, Totodile chomps the net and Jessie's hair, Poliwhirl trying to rip it. Lance notices them being their and thinking Ash is crazy. Seeing the two Pokémon, Sebastian sends out for another device, which back at the HQ, a giant Radar sends waves out towards to the area. Soon Totodile and Poliwhirl get tired and let go of the net. Ash realizes it's something at the HQ that's doing this. They start to go over there. Before anything can happen, Tyson catches them and hands them over to the hands of Sebastian. Ash demands what's going on and what are they going to do with the red Gyarados. Sebastian explains the whole conscept behind Project R, short for Project Revolution. The whole idea was that the Gyarados is had a strange property in it that made it red. The aim of Project R is to force Pokémon into evolving or try to achieve the "red" state. Thus, the whole Rocket faction gets a army of evolved and above-average Pokémon at their disposal. Later Tyson congratulates Jessie, James, and Meowth for their work, but it seems he has other means for them.

The Gyarados is later loaded onto a truck which Lance is on, along with Tyson and Sebastian. Leaving the lake, and Ash behind...

== Synopsis ==

Brock and Misty are at the Pokémon Center getting things ready when Janina comes by. She wonders where Ash is and they tell her he went out for a little field training and they were going to meet up with him. Later, Ash is seen running along the coastline with all his Pokémon. He soon sees Brock, Misty, and Janina in the distance and hurries up towards them. When they meet up, they continue to walk along the shore, until they come to a big Wobbuffet statue. Ash reads the little plaque in front, saying to place your prized Pokémon here for some superstitious thing. Ash puts Pikachu on top and the statue's eyes glow. Suddenly, a spring shoots Pikachu into the mouth which reveals it's another one of Team Rocket's traps. The statue drives off with the concealed treads. Ash has Bayleef use Razor Leaf at the bot but proves ineffective. While driving off with their catch, Jessie recalls the time when she couldn't get a new pencil case... supposedly indestructible even by a Snorlax stomping on them. She was teased of course, but she knows who'll get the last laugh with Pikachu.

Suddenly, a Steelix from the cliff above drops down towards them, biting onto the robot. Then Jasmine jumps down and meets up with the gang. The bot falls down and becomes unstable and almost about to be blown. Before this can happen, Bayleef uses Vine Whip to take out Pikachu. After that, the bot blows up sending Team Rocket back to the sky. After thanking Jasmine and commenting about her Steelix, all of them head off to the gym for the battle they so long been expecting.

The battle would be a two on two, and obviously, no time limit. Jasmine starts off with a Magnemite and Ash sends out Pikachu. Pikachu starts it off with a Thunderbolt but Magnemite simply dodges out of the way. Magnemite throws down a Thunderwave back at Pikachu, Pikachu dodging as well. This seemed to continue for a while but then Pikachu throws in a Quick Attack, but also has little effect because of Magnemite's steel type. This opportunity lets Magnemite's Thunderwave to successfully hit Pikachu. But Pikachu was able to resist it and tried another Quick Attack, putting the Magnetmite out of commission for the first round.

Next up was Steelix; however, Steelix has the advantage with Pikachu fatigued from the last round. The first attack was Iron Tail by Steelix, but Pikachu was able to dodge it with ease. Pikachu retaliated with a Thunderbolt, but it had not effect once so ever. Steelix soon finished Pikachu off with another Iron Tail. Ash already had another plan so he sends out Cyndaquil. Steelix again starts off with Iron Tail, which Cyndaquil easily dodges. After being busy with dodging, Cyndaquil finally used a Flame Thrower to Steelix. However, Steelix started using Sandstorm, making a dust devil appear absorbing the flame. Now unable to do anything, they just wait until Steelix rises out again.

Steelix rises out but misses Cyndaquil by a close call. Steelix again tries an Iron Tail, which misses, and Cyndaquil going for a Flamethrower again. Steelix Digs once again to evade the attack and the process repeats for a while. Seeing that this dodging and flamethrowing won't work, why not play her at her own game? Cyndaquil tries a Smokescreen but Steelix Digs, which causes it to easily go away. However, when Steelix stops for a moment, Cyndaquil isn't there. Cyndaquil soon appears from a hole behind the Steelix and shoots out a Flamethrower at an advantage. Steelix gets hit, but not quite down from the blow, instead gets mad. Steelix tries Iron Tail over and over while Cyndaquil dodges. When Cyndaquil tries to dodge an Iron Tail, it gets smacked out of the ring. Everyone thinks that Cyndaquil is knocked out, but Cyndaquil gets up and tries to get back onto the ring. Cyndaquil successfully makes it and with a whole lot more energy than what it looked like.

Steelix dives in for a Crunch attack and Cyndaquil releases another Smokescreen. Cyndaquil appears to be nowhere again, so Jasmine has Steelix Iron Tail the ground to shake it a bit. The tunnel where Cyndaquil is hiding becomes unstable, forcing it to head for the surface. Another Iron Tail was attempted and failed, and Cyndaquil tries a Flamethower. Steelix again digs, but remains on the surface. Cyndaquil gives the Flame some power which keeps the Steelix on the surface. Ash then gets the idea that, if the flame stays long enough, then it'll turn the tornado into an inferno. Ash says to use Flamethrower at full power, which turns the tornado into a blaze. After a while, Steelix stops, steaming and burnt from the heat, and then collapses. Ash wins the match!

Ash is rewarded the Mineral Badge and wonders where to go next. Brock says they should head to Mahogany, but Janina says that cutting through Ecruteak would be a shortcut. Being settled, they set off for the next town, Mahogany Town!

'''Jessie's Magikarp''' (Japanese: '''ムサシのコイキング''' ''Musashi's Koiking'') was the third Pokémon to be caught by Jessie during her travels in [[Hoenn]]. Its English voice actress is [[Maddie Blaustein]].

The Pokémon's only appearance came in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]''. After stealing {{an|Spoink}}'s pearl, Team Rocket came across the [[Magikarp Salesman]] who convinced Jessie to trade the pearl for what he claimed to be a {{p|Feebas}}. Jessie was reluctant at first until the salesman explained to her that Feebas evolve into {{p|Milotic}}, after which Jessie eagerly made the trade, despite the protests of [[James]] and {{MTR}}.
[[Image:Jessie'sFeebas.jpg|left|thumb|Jessie's Magikarp before the paint washed off.]]
Later, Team Rocket was seen at a lake letting Jessie's "Feebas" swim around in a stream. The paint started to run, and soon it was revealed that the Feebas was actually a Magikarp. This discovery infuriated Jessie, and Team Rocket sought out the salesman to demand a refund. When they found the salesman, {{Ash}} and his friends were already there. A battle between {{TP|James|Cacnea}} and {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} against {{AP|Pikachu}} and Spoink ensued, during which the salesman escaped, and Magikarp was completely lost track of. Team Rocket was defeated in the end and the Pearl was returned to Spoink. The Magikarp has never been seen again so it is believed not to belong to Jessie anymore.

{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
The episode starts off with [[Team Rocket]] relaxing in the [[Great Marsh]]. {{MTR}} doesn't want to get in the marsh but [[James]] and {{TP|James|Carnivine}} pull Meowth in having him land on his face.

{{AP|Buizel}} is training for the next gym match and {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} agree to have a training match. {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} starts things off with {{m|Whirlpool}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} responds with {{m|Iron Tail}}. Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} but Piplup dodges and it hits Buizel. Buizel turns around trying to pick a fight with Pikachu but {{AP|Turtwig}} intervenes and tries to push Buizel back. Turtwig tries too hard and makes Buizel fall on its back. Buizel, angry, uses {{m|SonicBoom}} but Ash gets in the way taking the blow. [[Crasher Wake]] comes by and notices Buizel's behavior. He sends out his {{p|Floatzel}} which looks down on Buizel. Ash checks Floatzel on his [[Pokédex]].

Ash and Crasher Wake are in the gym field and the judge is explaining the rules. Crasher Wake sends out his {{p|Gyarados}} and Ash sends out Pikachu. Pikachu makes the first move with Thunderbolt which hits Gyarados giving it bad damage. However, Gyarados seems hardly phased and Gyarados charges and uses {{m|Dragon Rage}}. Pikachu counters with Iron Tail and jumps over Gyarados. Gyarados goes for Pikachu but Pikachu dives down using {{m|Volt Tackle}}. The two collide and Pikachu stands out the winner.

Crasher Wake sends out {{p|Quagsire}} and Dawn checks it out on her Pokédex. Ash calls back Pikachu and sends out Turtwig. Turtwig uses {{m|Energy Ball}} but Quagsire uses its slim body to dodge into the water. Turtwig jumps over the panels on the water and Crasher Wake notices how fast Turtwig is. After watching Turtwig jump from panel to panel, Quagsire uses {{m|Mud Bomb}} and sends Turtwig flying backwards.Quagsire jumps up and uses {{m|Ice Beam}}. After initializing an Ice Beam, Quagsire uses Mud Bomb but Ash calls back Turtwig. Ash sends out Buizel and uses Sonicboom. Quagsire seems to not have even felt the attack and Quagsire charges up for Ice Beam. Remembering the combination they used in the [[Wallace Cup]], Buizel uses {{m|Aqua Jet}} as Quagsire releases the Ice Beam. Buizel goes head on towards the Ice Beam soon becoming encoated with ice armor and strikes Quagsire directly. Buizel knocks out Quagsire.

Crasher Wake sends out Floatzel and Buizel charges with Aqua Jet. Floatzel inflates its sac and deflects Buizel's attack. Buizel uses {{m|Water Pulse}} but Floatzel blocks it by merely punching it. Floatzel uses {{m|Razor Wind}} and Buizel is thrown into the water. Buizel gets out and uses {{m|Water Gun}} but Floatzel blocks with its left fin. Buizel charges at Floatzel but Floatzel dodges and punches it in the water. Floatzel uses {{m|Bulk Up}} and swims after Buizel. Buizel uses SonicBoom and Floatzel uses Razor Wind. Buizel continues to swim away but Floatzel is gaining up on it. As Floatzel gets closer Buizel stops and Floatzel swims ahead then Buizel charges at Floatzel with Aqua Jet. Then Buizel uses Water Pulse and a geyser of water sends Floatzel against the gym ceiling. Floatzel gets out of it and Buizel uses SonicBoom. Floatzel dodges and uses {{m|Ice Fang}}. Buizel bites the Ice Fang after it hits and uses Water Pulse. Floatzel inflates its sac and sends the Water Pulse back at Buizel. Buizel gets knocked back and is confused. Floatzel uses Razor Wind and and Buizel tries to use Aqua Jet but only turns around. Buizel gets knocked towards Ash then Ash decides to send out Pikachu. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt and Floatzel uses Whirlpool. The attacks collide and sparkling droplets of water drop and shock Buizel out of its confusion. Pikachu uses Volt Tackle but Floatzel stops it with Razor Wind and sends it flying in the air. Floatzel jumps up and uses Ice Fang. Pikachu falls backwards and recovers a little bit after the attack only to find out that Ice Fang froze part of its back. Buizel wants to battle now and Ash sends it out. As Pikachu and Buizel pass each other they clap hands and Buizel uses Water Gun to break the ice off of Pikachu's back. Buizel jumps and uses Aqua Jet and Floatzel uses Ice Fang. Both Pokémon fall back to their places and Floatzel uses Razor Wind. Razor Wind hits and makes a smoky result. Floatzel jumps up but as the smoke clears, Buizel is nowhere to be found. Buizel jumps up from out the water and releases a Water Pulse at point blank range at Floatzel and sends Floatzel flying back. Floatzel is unable to battle and Ash has won the challenge.

Outside, Buizel and Pikachu make amends from the earlier incident and Crasher Wake gives Ash the {{badge|Fen}}. Ash does his pose and shows off his newly earned badge.

Meanwhile, at night, Team Rocket are sleeping in the Great Marsh and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} is putting some mud on [[Jessie]]'s sleeping eyes. The episode ends with Wobbuffet whispering its name.

*The length of time between Ash's Veilstone and Pastoria Gym challenges is 15 episodes, half that of the 30 episode "drought" between Ash's Eterna and Veilstone Gym challenges. (Note that within the games, this is also the longest distance between two Gyms).
*This is the first time in Sinnoh that Ash has won a Gym Battle without any of his Pokémon being defeated, which is a great improvement compared to his previous battles.
*This marks the first time that Ash has defeated a Sinnoh Gym Leader in their first battle.
*Gligar's evolution is foreshadowed in [[DP084]] and [[DP085]]'s preview.
*When the scene opened up to show Ash's Buizel, Buizel was busy concentrating for the gym battle, and even did a few moves and behaved in a way that would give the impression that he's a martial artist.
*At one point where Ash was getting his Pokémon excited, Ash's Staravia put its wing into the air with its forefeathers curled up in what seemed like a fist.
===Errors===
*Floatzel's arms are completely orange in one scene. [[Image:Floatzel_Orange_Arms.JPG|right|thumb|200px|Floatzel's orange arms.]]

{{StrategyWiki}}
'''Pokémon Emerald''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター　エメラルド''' ''Pocket Monsters Emerald'') is a sister game to [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire]], and is the fifth [[Generation III]] [[main series]] game. It was released in Japan on September 16th. It added many features to Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire.

It was the second highest selling video game of 2005 in North America.

== Changes from Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire ==

=== Aesthetic changes ===

* [[Brendan (game)|Brendan]] and [[May (game)|May]] have slight outfit changes.

* {{p|Vigoroth}} are in place of {{p|Machoke}} moving boxes into Brendan's or May's house, while {{p|Zigzagoon}} is in place of {{p|Poochyena}} chasing [[Professor Birch]].
* Pokémon are animated in battle.
* The [[Legendary Pokémon]] battle intros include a different animation before moving into the battle scene. This animation involves, for the [[Generation III]] mascots, their body pattern, or for the [[Legendary Golems]], their eye pattern.

=== Storyline changes ===

* Both [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] are featured as the villainous teams, each stirring trouble at different stages in the game. The objective of each team, to awaken {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}, respectively, is eventually fulfilled.
* {{p|Rayquaza}} is prominent plot-wise, awakened in order to stop the destructive battle between Groudon and Kyogre. It is the one out of the three ancient [[Pokémon]] that can be captured prior to the [[Elite Four]] challenge, while still at the same place and on the same high level as in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire.

=== Gameplay Changes ===

* Groudon and Kyogre are captured at new locations and on higher levels.
* The fleeing Pokémon across [[Hoenn]], {{p|Latias}} or {{p|Latios}}, can be selected right after beating the Elite Four. The one that is not selected is available on [[Southern Island]], requiring the promotional [[Eon Ticket]].
* The Regis' puzzle is somewhat different, though the same in principle.
* Wireless linking with [[Union Room]], as in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]].
* Wireless mini-games added to [[Mossdeep City]], as in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
* Double Battles are available outside link-cable battling. Featured in the Battle Tower with a computer player (or, using the Wireless Adapter, a human player), as well as at the [[Mossdeep Space Center|Space Center]] stage of the game, battling alongside [[Steven Stone|Steven]].
* [[Double Battle]]s are more common as different trainers can team up.
* [[Gym Leader]]s may be rebattled in Double Battles, with new Pokémon on their teams that are not regularly found in Hoenn.
* The Trainer's Eyes is replaced by Match Call, which integrated a calling system similar to the [[PokéGear]] cellphone.
* {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, or {{p|Totodile}} may be gotten from Professor Birch after catching every Pokémon in the [[Hoenn Dex]].
* {{p|Deoxys}} is in its Speed form.
* New map effects for Abilities.
* New item list for {{a|Pickup}}; Pokémon picks up item based on Pokémon's level.
* [[Abilities]] have a role in breeding as Magma Armor and Flame Body hurry up the hatching process if a Pokémon which acquires them is in the party.
* Passing-down [[Natures]] with {{evostone|Everstone}} when breeding Pokémon.
* Raise [[Happiness]] and lower [[effort values]] with certain berries.
* The [[Mystery Gift]] option of the [[Wireless Adapter]] primarily replaces the [[Mystery Events]] option of the [[e-Reader]]. The [[Enigma Berry]] is thus obtained through Mystery Gift, unlike in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. Mystery Events is absent from the English version of the game.
* Pokémon Contests are all held in [[Lilycove City]].

=== Character changes ===

* [[Contest Lady]], [[Quiz Lady]], or [[Favor Lady]] in Lilycove Pokémon Center.
* New [[Move Tutor]]s added, including most of the ones in Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen (all but {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, {{m|Blast Burn}} and {{m|Hydro Cannon}}), along with 15 others that teach moves previously acquired through [[Generation II]] [[Technical Machine|TMs]].
* Learn about a Pokémon's [[DVs]] through a Legendary Pokémon Top Breeder.
* A new Gym Leader in the Sootopolis Gym, [[Juan]].
* A new Pokémon Champion, [[Wallace]].
* [[Steven Stone|Steven]] appears in [[Meteor Falls]] after the Elite Four challenge, with all of his Pokémon at exactly 20 levels higher than in Ruby and Sapphire.

=== Area additions ===

* The fossils ([[Root Fossil]], [[Claw Fossil]]) in the desert are now found in a short-lived tower called [[Mirage Tower]] that sinks into the ground once a fossil is chosen. However, the other fossil can now be acquired after the Elite Four challenge.
* [[Pokémon Battle Tent|Battle Tents]] replace [[Pokémon Contests|Pokémon Contest]] Halls in [[Verdanturf Town]], [[Fallarbor Town]] and [[Slateport City]].
* A new battle area, [[Trainer Hill]] (a similar location to [[Trainer Tower]] found in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]]). Features [[e-Reader]] compatibility in the Japanese version.
* Another new battle area, the {{ho|Battle Frontier}}, an expansion of the existing Battle Tower.
* New areas within the [[Hoenn Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] and [[Desert Underpass]], introducing 30 [[Johto]]-region Pokémon and a few [[Kanto]]-region Pokémon.

* [[Terra Cave]] and [[Marine Cave]], accessible only after defeating Elite Four, are home to Groudon and Kyogre, respectively. The caves are not fixed to one location, and in order to track them it is necessary to investigate the unusual patterns concluded by the [[Weather Institute]].
* [[Navel Rock]], where {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}} appear, as well as [[Birth Island]], where Deoxys appears, can be reached in the same way as in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
* {{p|Mew}} appears on [[Faraway Island]], an island that is located remote from Hoenn. Reaching the island requires a special promotional item, the [[Old Sea Map]].
* [[Altering Cave]] added, as in the one found in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
* Wireless battle house added to [[Mossdeep City]], as in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
* Utilizing GameShark, players can find hidden music in the games, including music originally used in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.

=== Broken PRNG ===

*The game uses a faulty implementation of the pseudo-random number generator (PRNG), which allows literally identical random numbers even after multiple resets. The game neglects to reseed the PRNG on startup, which means that the random numbers follow a predictable sequence once the seed is found and/or forced. See [http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23986 this article] for more detailed info.

=== Emerald cloning glitch ===

*Like previous games, Emerald has a [[Pokémon cloning|cloning glitch]] that allows players to make multiple copies of Pokémon and items only available once.

==Trivia==
*Interestingly, {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} appear in [[Fiore]] after [[Pokémon Ranger|the game's]] ending. The two seem to have been hurt in a battle, which could have taken place in [[Hoenn]].

'''Fly Me to the Moon''' (Japanese: '''ポッポとデカポッポ！まだみぬそらへ!!''' ''{{tt|Poppo|Pidgey}} and the Enormous {{tt|Poppo|Pidgey}}! Towards the As Yet Unseen Sky!!''), is Episode 211 of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on August 16, 2001 and in the United States on September 21, 2002.


The group visit an island containing Pidgey that are fat and unable to fly... except for one which has dreams of flying higher than any Pokémon has ever done before.
{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
The gang sets off exploring the first island of the Whirl Cup for a while. Misty spots a Corsola and starts going off with her little speech about being the best water Pokémon trainer there is. Although she wants a Corsola, she can't because she doesn't have a boat. A man comes by and says it would be impossible either way, pointing out the whirlpools all around. He says he's Wilbur, one of the people who live on the island. He invites them over to his place, which is across a river. As they get to the bridge (a rope bridge), no one really wants to go. Misty goes on first for some reason and everyone follows. A wind begins to blow and it spins the bridge around and throws them to the other side. Afterwards, Wilbur calls out and a flock of Pidgey come towards him. The Pidgey don't look normal, they look chubbier. Team Rocket scopes them out from above, seeing that there could be another good catch for the day.

When they reach Wilbur's house, another Pidgey soars by them and lands on the roof. Wilbur says that's his special Pidgey, Orville. When they come inside, there's a painting on the wall with a few Pidgey flying towards the sun. Wilbur explains that the other Pidgey are overweight, he really doesn't have a clue why. They call up Professor Oak and he explains that it's probably just their eating habit.

Later Wilbur starts to explain about Orville. A while ago when Orville was still a fledgling, he really got interested in that painting. It also set his aim to fly to the sun, which Wilbur seemed to understand. So he decided to train Orville to fly, which started off to be a good start then improved. One day while Wilbur was training with Orville, he decided to hanglide towards the ocean and see if Orville was capable. Orville managed for the first few minutes but couldn't keep up and started to lag down towards a whirlpool. Orville then noticed the sun, which reminded him of the painting and soon Orville was able to fly back up and with ease.

Team Rocket, overhearing this, devised a plan that could get them both Orville and Pikachu. After Wilbur was done, Team Rocket arrived in disguised. They made a proposal that they could help Orville reach his goal, no charge, and they could monitor him from the balloon. The deal seemed to be too good to pass up so Wilbur aggreed. Later that night, Meowth came over to where Orville was sleeping and started to talk with him, giving him a headset so that they could get communication during the flight tomorrow.

The next day, everyone went inside the balloon and began the ascent. James activated the rocket boosters and they went high very fast. After the short ascent, Orville took off, going upwards. Meowth made relay conversations during the whole time. While they were watching Pidgey, Ash seemed to notice that he was going for something, a flock of Spearow! Orville went through them still going upwards and the Spearow started to give the chase, but they couldn't catch up to him. Then a Fearow took charge and started to chase after Orville. Seeing that this might cause Orville to fall if he would be attacked, Ash had Pikachu give it a Thunderbolt.

Soon they were pretty high up, everyone had to put on oxygen masks as they watched Orville make his way farther up. Meowth continued the conversation with Orville. Soon they were so high up that even Pikachu and Togepi who didn't need the masks needed them. Then they saw that Orville had reached a altitude so high, he was growing frost all over. Despite this, Orville kept aiming for the sun. Orville kept thinking as he went and then decided, it was over, he done it. Orville went down for a fast dive towards the ground then finally met altitude with the balloon. Everything looked alright, except for the fact that Orville went through the balloon to break the fall. The balloon started to descend slowly and Orville was in dire need of oxygen, so Meowth grabbed a mask and put it on Orville, and he soon woke up. Except now the hole got bigger and they were plunging towards the ground. The other Pidgey on the ground noticed that the balloon was falling fast. They all started to gather up under the balloon and started jumping up as if they were trying to fly. They managed to headbutt the basket, breaking the fall.

Soon everything was alright for Wilbur and Orville. Orville soon became a hero to the other Pidgey. Meanwhile one of the rocket boosters started off automatically, sending Team Rocket blasting off. The gang said their goodbyes and headed off to the next town.

Team Rocket had crashed onto a cliff tree and are hanging. Wobbuffet comes out from one of the brush but they wonder where Meowth is. Meowth, sitting on the top branch, was talking to Orville about the moon and maybe he should aim for that.

'''Latios''' (Japanese: '''ラティオス''' ''Latios'') is a character from ''[[Pokémon Heroes]]''.

Latios and his sister, [[Latias (anime)|Latias]], lived in the Secret Garden in [[Alto Mare]], where they were the guardians of the [[Soul Dew]]. They were friends with [[Lorenzo]] and [[Bianca]].

Latios and Latias presented some very unique powers in the movie, such as sight-sharing, invisibility and shapeshifting.

In the end of the movie, Latios had to sacrifice himself to save Alto Mare, becoming the first Pokémon to die in the anime, and turned into the new Soul Dew, just like his father in the past.

At the end movie credits, 2 Latios can be seen flying with Latias. They are believed to be the spirits of Latios and his father.

'''Regigigas''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レジギガス''' ''Regigigas'') is a Pokémon introduced in [[Generation IV]] that is the [[trio master|master]] of [[Hoenn]]'s [[legendary golems]].

It comes to life only when {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}} and {{p|Registeel}} are gathered. Therefore, it requires the three to be in the player's [[party]] to awaken it within [[Snowpoint Temple]], where it sleeps. It still appears on the map if they are absent, but does not awaken and the player regards it as a statue.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Regigigas shares several traits with the [[Regis]]. For instance, it has seven dot-like "eyes" arranged in a specific pattern. It has six spots that are apart from its eyes, which seem to be gemstones. These gemstones seem to represent the Regis with the red gems representing {{p|Regirock}}, the blue gems representing {{p|Regice}} and the silver gems representing {{p|Registeel}}. It has a golem-like shape and long arms with short legs. Its body is covered in black stripes, and it has moss growing in its back and feet, which may indicate it has been asleep for a long time.
====Gender differences====
Regigigas is genderless.
====Special abilities====
Regigigas has the ability {{A|Slow Start}}, an ability that causes Regigigas's Attack and Speed to be halved the first few turns. According to its [[Pokédex]] entries, the legends say that, its extremely high attack stat, combined with its colossal strength, enables it to move continents.

Regigigias is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learns {{m|Crush Grip}}.

===Behavior===
===Habitat===
It resides in the [[Snowpoint Temple]], having done so for hundreds, maybe thousands of years. According to the [[braille]] in [[Generation III]] games, it was sealed away in order to protect people, and three keys (the [[Legendary Golems]]) were created so that only one with the power of {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}} would be able to catch it.

===Diet===

==In the anime==

Regigigas appeared in ''[[Giratina and the Sky's Bouquet: Shaymin]]'', commanding a herd of {{p|Mamoswine}}.

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]], [[Hareta]] captures Regigigas by persuading it to help him stop [[Team Galactic]].

==Trivia==
*Due to its [[ability]] reducing its potential, it is in league more with {{p|Slaking}} than other legendaries. They share the same base stat total of 670.
*Although it is thought to be unique, it is possible to see and fight another, under the ownership of [[Palmer]] along with a {{p|Heatran}} and {{p|Cresselia}} in the 49th consecutive battle in the Battle Tower.
*All four of the Regi's types([[rock]], [[ice]], [[steel]] and [[normal]])are the four types that [[fighting]] is strong against.
*It is the only Pokémon who can learn TMs that cannot learn {{TM|17|Protect}} or {{TM|44|Rest}}. This is probably to prevent people from countering its own ability by avoiding damage or healing itself.
*While the moss growing on Regigigas is thought to have been caused by the fact that it had slumbered for a long time, it was imprisoned in [[Snowpoint Temple]], a place filled with ice and not a very suitable place for moss to grow in.
*Regigigas is the only one of the [[Regis]] not to have its type in its name. {{p|Regirock}} is a {{type2|Rock}}, {{p|Regice}} is an {{type2|Ice}}, and {{p|Registeel}} is {{type2|Steel}}.
*Regigigas and {{p|Slaking}} have the highest [[base stats|base stat]] in {{stat|Attack}} of all {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon. It has the third highest attack of all Pokémon, after {{p|Deoxys}}'s Attack Forme and {{p|Rampardos}}.
*Despite being called a colossal Pokémon, Regigigas is only the 14th tallest Pokémon and only the 7th heaviest.
===Origin===
This [[Pokémon]] is based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened.
====Name origin====
The first part of its name is ''Regi'', ''kings'' or ''to rule, govern or control'', or possibly ''regius'', ''royal''. The last part of its name, ''gigas'', means ''Giant''. This means it is the King of the [[Legendary Golems|Giants]].

==Trivia==
[[Image:Registeel German.PNG|thumb|right|German DP sprite]]
* The Regi's have a strength-weakness line. Regice is weak against [[Regirock]] and [[Registeel]], and Regirock is weak against Registeel. Also, all four of the Regi's types([[rock]], [[ice]], [[steel]] and [[normal]])are the four types that [[fighting]] is strong against.
*In the German version of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Registeel's sprite was edited because of its arm. The arm's original position is reminiscent of the greeting of the {{wp|Nazi}}s.
*Registeel, along with {{p|Mawile}}, is the only pure {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon.
*In Pokémon Ranger, Registeel is the only of the three Regis that has a Field Move. The other two have a Poké Assist instead. Registeel could be used on a boulder near its chamber to find a {{p|Dugtrio}}.
* Registeel's in-game cry is similar to the transforming sound effect used by the {{wp|Transformers}} TV show and toyline.
* If Regice and Registeel were reversed, it would make the dots on the three Regi's head spell "HOT".
===Origin===
This [[Pokémon]] is based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened.
====Name origin====
This [[Pokémon]]'s name is the combination of the words ''steel'' and ''regius'', which is Latin for ''royal''.

'''Regice''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レジアイス''' ''Regice'') is a [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] {{t|Ice}}-type Pokémon available in the third generation of Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Regice is an Ice-type Pokémon. Its body is composed of Antarctic ice, and resembles a crystal. Its face has an unusual pattern consisting of seven yellow dots that are in a "+" formation.
====Gender differences====
Regice is a genderless species.
====Special abilities====
Regice cloaks itself in air that is -328 degrees Fahrenheit. It can survive if submerged in molten lava. Due to its extremely frigid body, anyone who approaches it can freeze. It is capable of surviving even extremely hot temperatures. Regice has the unexplainable ability to wield {{t|Electric}}al attacks like {{m|Zap Cannon}}.

===Behavior===

===Habitat===
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Cave Pokémon|Cave Pokémon]]]]
Regice resides in the [[Island Cave]], which has to be unlocked to access it.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Regice anime.jpg|thumb|Regice in the anime]]
Regice made an appearance with {{p|Regirock}} and {{p|Registeel}} in the 8th Pokémon movie, [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]], as one of the three guardians of The [[Tree of Beginning]].

{{Ash}} battles against and defeats [[Pyramid King Brandon]]'s Regice in ''[[AG189|Pace - The Final Frontier]]''.

==In the manga==
===In [[Pokémon Special]]===
Regice debuted near the end of the RSE saga, when [[Glacia]] was attempting to open the [[Island Cave]]. Together, [[Steven Stone|Steven]] and {{Special|Sapphire}} created a team of four {{p|Beldum}}s and Sapphire's Relicanth and Wailord, thus opening up the chamber containing Regice. Regice used {{m|Superpower}} to stop {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} from fighting. Afterwards, it and the other two [[Regi]]s traveled to the mountains, where they were later caught by [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon]].

Brandon used Regice in his battle with {{Special|Emerald}}. It beat {{Special|Crys}}'s Cubone, which Emerald had borrowed to use in the [[Battle Frontier#Battle Pyramid|Battle Pyramid]], but was subsequently defeated by Emerald's Sceptile's {{m|Iron Tail}}.

'''Regirock''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レジロック''' ''Regirock'') is a {{t|Rock}}-type Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Regirock is a large golem made of rocks. Regirock has a braille pattern on its face that resembles a capital letter "H". The interesting thing about Regirock is that the rocks it is made of come from several different places. The reason for this is that whenever gets damaged in battle, it searches for rocks to repair itself with. This habit also contributes to Regirock's patchwork appearance. What is even stranger is that Regirock has no internal organs.
====Gender differences====
Regirock is genderless.
====Special abilities====
Regirock mostly knows {{t|Rock}}, {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fighting}}-type attacks. For some odd reason, Regirock can learn {{t|Electric}}al attacks, more specifically the move {{m|Zap Cannon}} that it learns naturally. If Regirock is damaged, it can repair itself by building its body with rocks.

===Behavior===
===Habitat===
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Cave Pokémon|Cave Pokémon]]]]
Regirock was sealed in Hoenn's [[Desert Ruins|ancient ruins]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Regirock anime.PNG|right|thumb|Brandon's Regirock]]
Regirock made an appearance with {{p|Regice}} and {{p|Registeel}} in the 8th Pokémon movie, [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]. The trio of legendary golems were guardians of the [[Tree of Beginning]].

Regirock was also used by [[Pyramid King Brandon]] in ''[[AG177|Battling the Enemy Within]]''. He used it to battle {{Ash}} when he was being possessed by the King of Pokélantis.

==Trivia==
* The Regi's have a strength-weakness line. [[Regice]] is weak against Regirock and Registeel, and Regirock is weak against [[Registeel]]. Also, all four of the Regi's types([[rock]], [[ice]], [[steel]] and [[normal]])are the four types that [[fighting]] is strong against.
* Regirock is tied for having the second highest defense base stat with {{p|Steelix}}.
* Regirock's footprint has a striking resemblance to a {{wp|dung beetle|Scarab Beetle}}.
===Origin===
This [[Pokémon]] is based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened.
====Name origin====
Regirock's name comes from ''regius'', which is Latin for royal, and the word ''rock''.

Ash's Bulbasaur

}}
'''Ash's Bulbasaur''' (Japanese: '''サトシのフシギダネ''' ''Satoshi's Fushigidane'') was the fourth [[Pokémon]] caught by {{Ash}} during his travels through [[Kanto]], and the first of the original [[starter Pokémon]] that Ash acquired. It is voiced by 林原めぐみ ''[[Megumi Hayashibara]]'' in the Japanese version. Its English voice actresses are [[Tara Jayne]] ({{4Kids}} dub; up until [[Pokémon: Advanced Challenge|Advanced Challenge]]), [[Lindsey Warner]] ([[AG133]] only) and [[Michele Knotz]] ({{PUSA}} dub).

==History==
It was raised in the [[Hidden Village]] by [[Melanie]], who cared for sick, injured, and abandoned Pokémon. Bulbasaur acted as the village's bodyguard, but after Ash helps defend the Hidden Village from an attack by [[Team Rocket]], Melanie encourages it to join Ash, explaining that its growth is being stunted by staying too long in the village. Although Bulbasaur initially appeared to distrust Ash. In ''[[EP017|Island of Giant Pokémon]]'', it alone assumed that Ash had abandoned it and the others. Its views on trainers were presumably colored by all the abandoned Pokémon in the Hidden Village. Over time Bulbasaur grew to trust its new trainer.

Bulbasaur is extremely stubborn, surly, and eager to battle. It had the opportunity to [[evolve]], but refused to do so despite facing a mass of {{p|Ivysaur}} as well as a {{p|Venusaur}} who were angry at it for ruining the Bulbasaur evolutionary festival. This allowed him to learn the powerful {{m|SolarBeam}} technique earlier than if it had evolved. It has the heart of a fighter and it never gives up in a battle. It has the determination to keep fighting even if the odds are against it, defeating such varied opponents as an {{p|Exeggutor}}, a {{p|Venonat}}, and a {{p|Scyther}} despite the type disadvantages. During a visit to a garden full of exotic plants run by [[Florinda Showers]], Bulbasaur developed a certain affection for her {{p|Gloom}}, but nothing apparently came of it.

Bulbasaur is the only member of Ash's original team, save for {{AP|Pikachu}}, to remain in his care. He stayed with him until midway in the [[Johto]] adventures, when he was sent back to [[Professor Oak]]'s to keep the Pokémon there from quarreling with each other. Bulbasaur later returned in ''[[AG074|Hokey Poké Balls!]]'' to meet [[May's Bulbasaur]], and again alongside {{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Squirtle}} to battle [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon]] at the [[Battle Frontier#Battle Pyramid|Battle Pyramid]], where it defeated Brandon's {{p|Dusclops}} and {{p|Solrock}} (although, admittedly, the Dusclops had already been weakened by Charizard and the Solrock took Bulbasaur down with it).

==Trivia==
*Ash's Bulbasaur is one of his three pokemon to use [[Anime move errors|a move that it cannot learn]] (five if you count [[Ash's Raticate|Raticate]] and [[Ash's Larvitar|Larvitar]]). The other two are [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]] and [[Ash's Staravia|Staravia]], who used Tackle and Gust respectively. However, Caterpie tried (and failed) to use Counter.
*Ash's Bulbasaur is one of only two Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}} to use more than one [[Anime move errors|move that it cannot learn]], the other being {{oi|Golduck}}:
**Bulbasaur used {{m|Whirlwind}} in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', and has not used it since.
**Bulbasaur has also used {{m|Dig}} in ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur...the Ambassador]]''.
**In ''[[EP050|Who Gets to Keep Togepi?]]'', [[Misty]] gets stuck with {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} in her battle with Ash. Ash doesn't battle seriously and has Bulbasaur simply lick Psyduck's head and tickle it with its vines. This is not to be confused with the actual moves {{m|Lick}} and {{m|Tickle}}, the latter of which was later introduced in [[Generation III]]. Bulbasaur still cannot learn Lick or Tickle.
*Bulbasaur is Ash's only Pokémon who refused to [[Evolution|evolve]] after the process began.
*Bulbasaur was Ash's first {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon.It was also his first {{type2|Grass}}
*Ash's Bulbasaur can learn {{m|SolarBeam}}, a move that is only possibly learned via level-up in Generations I to III.
*Bulbasaur is one of the few Pokemon to show evidence of having forgotten a move. When Ash first met Bulbasaur, he sent out [[Ash's Butterfree|Butterfree]] in order to weaken it. When Butterfree used Sleep Powder, Bulbasaur blew away with Whirlwind. However, when Ash battled [[Lisa]] in [[Pokemon 3]], her Butterfree used Sleep Powder which Bulbasaur did not attempt to blow away. However, since Bulbasaur learned Solarbeam between these two events, it is possible that Whirlwind was forgotten in order to learn Solarbeam.

'''Fergus''' (Japanese: '''ウミオ''' ''Umio'') is one of the main characters from ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. His Japanese voice actor is [[Wataru Takagi]] and his English voice actor is [[Jimmy Zoppi]].

Fergus was one of the only Pokémon trainers who was able to make it through {{an|Mewtwo}}'s storm and reach [[New Island]]. When Mewtwo revealed himself to be the one who invited all the trainers to New Island, Fergus was the first to speak out against it, claiming a Pokémon could not be a trainer. He tried using his Gyarados to battle Mewtwo, but the {{t|Psychic}} Pokémon easily defeated it.

Just like those of the other trainers on New Island, all of his Pokémon were cloned by Mewtwo.

==Pokémon==
This is a listing of all of Fergus's Pokémon in the movie:

==Trivia==
*His Japanase name contains "umi" which means ''ocean''.
*All of Fergus' Pokemon are blue.
*Though he said all of his Pokémon were Water-types, he does have a Nidoqueen which is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Ground}} Pokémon. Nidoqueen can learn several Water-type moves, though.
*Fergus was the only one of the trainers that made it though the storm that did not own a [[starter Pokémon]] (This is probably because all of the other trainers had the three. [[Corey]] had {{p|Venusaur}}, [[Neesha]] had {{p|Blastoise}}, and {{Ash}} had {{AP|Charizard}}.

It had the opportunity to [[evolve]], but refused to do so despite facing a mass of {{p|Ivysaur}} as well as a {{p|Venusaur}} who were angry at it for ruining the Bulbasaur evolutionary festival. This allowed him to learn the powerful {{m|SolarBeam}} technique earlier than if it had evolved. It has the heart of a fighter and it never gives up in a battle. It has the determination to keep fighting even if the odds are against it, defeating such varied opponents as an {{p|Exeggutor}}, a {{p|Venonat}}, and a {{p|Scyther}} despite the type disadvantages. During a visit to a garden full of exotic plants run by [[Florinda Showers]], Bulbasaur developed a certain affection for her {{p|Gloom}}, but nothing apparently came of it.

Bulbasaur is the only member of Ash's original team, save for {{AP|Pikachu}}, to remain in his care. He stayed with him until midway in the [[Johto]] adventures, when he was sent back to [[Professor Oak]]'s to keep the Pokémon there from quarreling with each other. Bulbasaur later returned in ''[[AG074|Hokey Poké Balls!]]'' to meet [[May's Bulbasaur]], and again alongside {{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Squirtle}} to battle [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon]] at the [[Battle Frontier#Battle Pyramid|Battle Pyramid]], where it defeated Brandon's {{p|Dusclops}} and {{p|Solrock}} (although, admittedly, the Dusclops had already been weakened by Charizard and the Solrock took Bulbasaur down with it).

==Trivia==
*Ash's Bulbasaur is one of his three pokemon to use [[Anime move errors|a move that it cannot learn]] (five if you count [[Ash's Raticate|Raticate]] and [[Ash's Larvitar|Larvitar]]). The other two are [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]] and [[Ash's Staravia|Staravia]], who used Tackle and Gust respectively.

This is not to be confused with the actual moves {{m|Lick}} and {{m|Tickle}}, the latter of which was later introduced in [[Generation III]]. Bulbasaur still cannot learn Lick or Tickle.

'''Ash's Bulbasaur''' (Japanese: '''サトシのフシギダネ''' ''Satoshi's Fushigidane'') was the fourth [[Pokémon]] caught by {{Ash}} during his travels through [[Kanto]], and the first of the original [[starter Pokémon]] that Ash acquired. It is voiced by 林原めぐみ ''[[Megumi Hayashibara]]'' in the Japanese version. Its English voice actresses are [[Tara Jayne]] ({{4Kids}} dub; up until [[Pokémon: Advanced Challenge|Advanced Challenge]]), [[Lindsey Warner]] ([[AG133]] only) and [[Michele Knotz]] ({{PUSA}} dub).

==History==
It was raised in the [[Hidden Village]] by [[Melanie]], who cared for sick, injured, and abandoned Pokémon. Bulbasaur acted as the village's bodyguard, but after Ash helps defend the Hidden Village from an attack by [[Team Rocket]], Melanie encourages it to join Ash, explaining that its growth is being stunted by staying too long in the village. Although Bulbasaur initially appeared to distrust Ash. In ''[[EP017|Island of Giant Pokémon]]'', it alone assumed that Ash had abandoned it and the others. Its views on trainers were presumably colored by all the abandoned Pokémon in the Hidden Village. Over time Bulbasaur grew to trust its new trainer.
