'''Maylene''' (Japanese: '''スモモ''' ''Sumomo'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Veilstone City]]'s {{pkmn|Gym}}, known officially as the [[Veilstone Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Cobble}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She specializes in {{type2|Fighting}} [[Pokémon]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Maylene.JPG|left|thumb|200px|Maylene from the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Maylene made her first appearance in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''. She is voiced by ''[[Aya Endō]]'' in Japanese and by [[Rachael Lillis]] in English.

After being defeated by [[Paul]], Maylene had lost confidence in herself as a Gym Leader, a position she's only held for six months. When {{Ash}} challenged her, she declined, much to the annoyance of her {{TP|Maylene|Lucario}}.

Discovering {{an|Dawn}} has similar issues herself (following ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night]]'' and ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'''s contest defeats), Maylene agrees to have a gym battle with her in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''. She managed to defeat Dawn after a hard-fought battle.

She was challenged by Ash next in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', an even harder-fought battle which resulted in a tie. With the decision now hers, Maylene considered Ash to have battled well enough that she awarded him the {{Badge|Cobble}}.

Maylene also appeared in ''[[DP069|Enter Galactic!]]''.

==In the games==
Maylene uses {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon in her battles. Trainers who defeat her receive the {{Badge|Cobble}}, {{TM|60|Drain Punch}} and are able to use {{m|Fly}} outside of battle. Maylene is considered a cute little girl, but adults in the town respect her for her power. Maylene's father gambles at the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]. Maylene apparently doesn't know her own strength, as she's totally unsure of how she got to be Gym Leader, and seems rather confused by the whole thing.

===Quotes===
Before battle 
''"Hello. I'm pleased to meet you. I'm Maylene, and I'm the Gym Leader. I don't really know what it means to be strong, or how I got to be the Gym Leader. But I will do the best I can as the Gym Leader. I take battling very seriously. Whenever you're ready!"''

After sending out last Pokémon 
''"Oh! But this isn't the end, my friend!"''

During battle 
''"I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

When defeated 
''"I shall admit defeat... You are much too strong."''

After being defeated 
''"...OK. You win. That was a tough loss. I learned a lot from it. Please, accept this Gym Badge."''

''"Gee, I'm hungry... Oh, sorry, it's nothing. I didn't say anything. <name>, I can't explain what it means to be strong. I don't know how much effort goes into being strong... But being with Pokémon lets us keep making the effort, doesn't it?"''

==In the manga==
===[[Pokémon Special]]===
Maylene is seen training with her two Pokémon. She almost gets hit by Pearl's Monferno's Ember (when the trio was testing Berlitz's newly-earned Zoom Lens) while she was jogging around the city. She challenges Berlitz to a match, adding that Berlitz must use Monferno against her.

===[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!|Pokémon DP]]===
Maylene has a brief cameo in [[DPA07|chapter 7]] in volume 2, later in the volume she is seen complaining about only appearing in one panel.

|}

==Trivia==
* Maylene is the only Sinnoh Gym Leader in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} to not appear outside her gym at least once in the game. She makes an appearance outside of her Gym in {{game|Platinum}}, however, when the player reaches {{rt|217}} and at the Pokémon Center in [[Snowpoint City]] (before beating Candice).
* Maylene's Japanese name is shared with that of one of the [[Kimono Girl]]s of [[Ecruteak City]].
* Maylene is one of the youngest Gym Leaders in Sinnoh. However, the youngest [[Gym Leaders]] in the Pokémon world seem to hail from [[Hoenn]], being the twins from [[Mossdeep City]], [[Tate and Liza]].
* With the release of Pokémon Platinum, the order of three Gym battles in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are now shifted: instead of being third, Maylene is now fourth in the line-up. Had {{Ash}} fought [[Fantina]] previous to Maylene, he would have inadvertently gone out of order compared to the Diamond and Pearl line-up, but in order for the Platinum line-up. Ash battled the three shifted Gym Leaders in the order designated by Diamond and Pearl, as Platinum was not released until after Ash fought [[Crasher Wake]], but before Fantina.
* Maylene is the second Gym Leader to be voiced by [[Rachael Lillis]] in the English dub.
* Maylene is the only Sinnoh Gym Leader to have her main Pokémon be the same gender as her.
* She is also the only Gym Leader in Sinnoh to have more Pokémon of the opposite gender of her; in the Veilstone Gym, two out of her three Pokémon are male, while at the Match Place, three out of five are.

'''Candice''' (Japanese: '''スズナ''' ''Suzuna'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Snowpoint City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Snowpoint Gym]]. She hands out the [[Icicle Badge]] to [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainers]] who defeat her. She specializes in {{type2|Ice}} [[Pokémon]].

==In the games==
Candice uses {{type2|Ice}} Pokémon in her battles. Trainers who defeat her will receive the [[Icicle Badge]], {{TM|72|Avalanche}}, and will be able to use {{m|Rock Climb}} outside of battle. Candice teaches that before battling with Pokémon, a person needs to befriend them first. Candice has an interest in fashion and romance as well as Pokémon, and believes a person should put all their focus into whatever they do. She sometimes muses that she acts the opposite of the way people would expect a Ice-type Gym Leader to behave - warm and friendly instead of [[Pryce|cold and distant]].

She later allows the player entry into the [[Snowpoint Temple]].

===Quotes===
Before battle 
''"You want to challenge Candice? Sure thing! I was waiting for someone tough! But I should tell you, I'm tough because I know how to focus. Pokémon, fashion, romance... It's all about focus! I'll show you just what I mean. Get ready to lose!"''

When sending out last Pokémon 
''"I'm going to break the ice and bring out my last-resort Pokémon!"''

During battle 
''"I can sense your will to win, but I promise you I'm not about to lose!"''

When defeated 
''"I must say, I've warmed up to you! I might even admire you a little."''

After being defeated 
''"Wow! you are great! You've earned my respect! I think your focus and will bowled us over totally. Oh, that's right! I'm supposed to give you this!"''

When player attempts to access Snowpoint Temple 
''"It's OK! You can let that person in. Cynthia sent word to me. You're working on a Pokédex, aren't you? There should be many rare Pokémon in the temple. Enjoy your exploring!"''

==In the manga==
===[[Pokémon Special]]===
She appeared in [[Route 217]] saving {{Special|Platina}} when she fell from her skis after striking with a {{p|Graveler}}.

* Candice used these Pokémon to awaken {{p|Regigigas}}, which [[Hareta]] later captured.

==Trivia==
* Even though Candice lives in the snowy north of Sinnoh, the only protection she seemingly has from the weather is the sweater tied around her waist and her long socks. Like Dawn, she seems not to mind wearing a skirt in the cold weather.
* Candice is the only Ice-type specialist that doesn't use the type combination of {{2t|Water|Ice}} or Ice/Water.
* In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, Candice is the only one of [[Sinnoh]]'s big 13 trainers (the [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Elite Four]], and [[Champion]]), to use two Pokémon within the same evolutionary line on her team (Snover and Abomasnow). This is no longer true for {{game|Platinum}}.
* All of Candice's Diamond and Pearl team are Pokémon that have [[gender differences]].

'''Byron''' (Japanese: '''トウガン''' ''Tougan'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Canalave City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Canalave Gym]]. He hands out the [[Mine Badge]] to [[Pokémon trainer|trainers]] who defeat him. He specializes in {{type2|Steel}} [[Pokémon]]. He is [[Roark]]'s father.

==In the anime==
According to a blog by Kazuki Yao, who will play the voice of Byron in the anime, he will appear in [[DP105]] and [[DP106]] in a one hour special.


==In the games==
Byron uses {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon in his battles. Trainers who defeat him will receive the [[Mine Badge]], {{TM|91|Flash Cannon}}, and will be able to use {{m|Strength}} outside of battle. Byron asked [[Riley]] to become a Gym Leader, but Riley declined because he thought Byron's son Roark should be considered first. Byron isn't surprised to find his inexperienced son lost to the protagonist, but is enthusiastic about the next generation of Pokémon trainers. Byron resolves to train harder at [[Iron Island]] to compete with younger trainers.

He apparently owns the normally deserted cabin on Iron Island. After the Elite Four, he can be found there. Speaking to him results in him chiding himself for still treating Roark like a child, then he'll give the player a [[Metal Coat]] and leave.

===Quotes===
Before battle 
''"Ah! That's Oreburgh Gym Badge! I see, I see! You've defeated my son. But that's no surprise. He still has much to learn. In place of my son Roark, I, Byron, will take your challenge!"''

After sending out last Pokémon 
''"Oh, what's this? My last one! This is where we make our stand!"''

During battle 
''"We're not done yet! There's no giving up!"''

When defeated 
''"Hmm! My sturdy Pokémon, defeated!"''

After being defeated 
''"You were strong enough to take down my prized team of Pokémon. In recognition of that power, I give you this: the Mine Badge!"''

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Special===
Byron made an appearance with his Shieldon. Roark met him at Eterna City when exploring the Underground, where they discussed something (not known yet). Roark said that his father was the unpredictable type.

This listing is of Byron's Pokémon in the Pokémon Special manga.

===[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!|Pokémon DP]]===
Byron finds [[Hareta]] washed up on the shore after having been defeated by [[Cyrus]]. Byron takes Hareta in and allows him to regain his strength before putting him through a rigorous training session similar to what he put Roark through years ago. Hareta charges forward never considering his remaining strength, causing him to fail the challenge at the final stage. Byron then sends him to [[Iron Island]] to restart his training from scratch and improve his skills. He returns at the completion of Hareta's training to allow him to take his challenge again, however something terrible is happening in the distance.

==Trivia==
* Both Roark and Byron use [[Fossil]] Pokémon in Gym Battles, as well as a member of the Onix [[evolution]] line.
* He and his [[Roark|son's]] badges are references to the term Coal Mine. Plus, they both have mines in or near their respective town (Oreburgh Mine and Iron Island, which is supposed to have a mine).
* In Platinum, all of Byron's Pokémon can have the Sturdy ability.

'''Fantina''' (Japanese: '''メリッサ''' ''Melissa'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Hearthome City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Hearthome Gym]]. She hands out the [[Badge#Relic Badge|Relic Badge]] to [[Pokémon trainer|trainers]] who defeat her. She specializes in {{type2|Ghost}} [[Pokémon]]. She is apparently not from [[Pokémon nation|the country]] the games are set in, and often peppers her speech with phrases of French.

Her dress shares many elements as the design of the first [[Pokémon]] on her [[party]], {{p|Drifblim}}: it has a yellow "X" over a puffed out skirt of striped purple fabric.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Fantina anime.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Fantina in the anime]]
Despite the group having traveled through [[Hearthome City]] twice, once in ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night]]'' and a second time in [[DP086]], and {{an|Dawn}} having competed in a contest there during the both episodes, Fantina had not appeared in the anime. However, she did leave a note saying that she was going on a journey for a while, and to not look for her. She had a tendency to break into dance and speaks in sing-song voice, occasionally interspersing English words in as well such as "Yes" or "O.K.".

She finally appeared in [[DP093]] where she battled {{Ash}} and [[Zoey]]. She beat them both easily. It was also revealed that she battled [[Alan]] twice. It was only after his {{p|Nosepass}} evolved that he was able to defeat her. It was revealed in [[DP100]] that [[Paul]] also managed to defeat her.

Ash prepared to have a rematch with her in [[DP096]]. Ash met with Fantina upon returning to Hearthome City in [[DP101]] and challenged her again in [[DP102]], where he defeated her and earned the Relic Badge.

==In the games==
Fantina uses {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon in her battles. For defeating her, trainers receive the [[Badge#Relic Badge|Relic Badge]], {{TM|65|Shadow Claw}} and are able to use {{m|Surf}} outside of battle. She considers herself to be a Contest Expert and refuses to let the hero challenge her until they deliver the [[Old Charm]] to the [[Celestic Town]] elder at the request of the elder's granddaughter, [[Cynthia]]. Fantina speaks a mix of French and broken English and is an immigrant from another country. Upon arriving in Sinnoh, she decided to become a performer, so she dresses up in fancy outfits for Pokémon Contests. She also studied Pokémon and eventually attained the title of Gym Leader.

Fantina has a [[Hyper Potion]] she can use during the Gym battle.

Fantina can occasionally be competed against in {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s, in which she uses her {{p|Drifblim}}, nicknamed '''Loony''' (Japanese: '''ばるん''' ''Balloon'').

===Quotes===
In front of the Contest Hall at player's first visit to Hearthome City 
''Oh, I'm so sorry! Please excuse me. Are you entering a Contest? Tehehe... Enjoy yourself, please! Incidentally, Fantina, the Hearthome Gym Leader, also happens to be a Contest expert. And you may ask yourself, how do I know this? Well, I am Fantina! You may challenge me, but not yet! You must become much stronger. Then, you may challenge me!''

Before battle 
''"Ohohoho!! Finally, you have arrived! Since I came to this country, always I try to learn new things. They hold Contests in this city? I say to myself, {{tt|enfin|finally}}, I will excel. That's why I dress this way. {{tt|C'est une performance!|It is a performance!}} Also I study Pokémon very much. I have come to be Gym Leader. And, uh, so it shall be that you challenge me. But I shall win. That's what a Gym Leader does, {{tt|non|isn't it}}?"''

After sending out last Pokémon 
''"Oh, heavens. What is this? Is this my final Pokémon?"''

During battle 
''"Never give up, never surrender!"''

When defeated 
''"You are so fantastically strong. I know now why I have lost."''

After being defeated 
''"I am dumbfounded! So very, very strong! You, your Pokémon, so strong! Your power is admirable! I shall honor it with this Gym Badge!"''

''"Five Gym Badges... But you must not forget this. There are many other trainers. Strong Trainers, too. There are many more in Sinnoh. Have patience! You must become stronger, one at a time."''

==In the manga==
===[[Pokémon Special]]===
Fantina first appeared at the Super Contest Hall. When two women were making rude comments about rookie contestants, she sent out her Drifblim to carry them out and throw them into a garbage can. Then, when Diamond, Pearl and Berlitz came back to Hearthome City for the Gym Challenge, they discovered that she was the Gym Leader.

====Pokémon====
She has these Pokémon:

|}

===[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!|Pokémon DP]]===
She makes a brief cameo in [[DPA07|chapter 7]] handing a badge to Hareta. She is subsequently offended when he calls her "Grandma".

==Trivia==
* During the Gym battle in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Fantina exclaims "Never give up, never surrender!", the catchphrase from the 1999 science fiction comedy {{wp|Galaxy Quest}}.
* In the French version she speaks English, while in the Japanese and German versions she has a noticeable accent.
* The proper French form of her name should be ''Fantine''.
* Apparently, Fantina has two {{p|Drifblim}}, one for battles, and one for [[Super Contest|Contests]]. The Drifblim she uses in contests knows {{m|Explosion}}, {{m|Constrict}}, {{m|Focus Energy}}, and {{m|Ominous Wind}}, a noticeably different moveset from the Drifblim she uses in battle.
* Although Fantina's design is based off of a Drifblim, in the original gym match with her in Platinum she doesn't use one. Only in the rematch does her expanded team have a Drifblim in it.
* Despite the fact that she gives the [[TM]] for {{m|Shadow Claw}}, only one of her Pokémon, {{p|Gengar}} in Diamond and Pearl, and {{p|Haunter}} in Platinum, actually knows it and can learn it.
* In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Fantina is the fifth gym leader; but as of Pokémon Platinum, Fantina could be challenged the first time the player arrives at Hearthome, therefore making her the third gym leader. Had {{Ash}} fought Fantina previous to [[Maylene]], he would have inadvertently gone out of order compared to the D&P line-up, but in order for the Platinum line-up. Ash battled the three shifted Gym Leaders in the order designated by D&P, as Platinum was not released until after Ash fought [[Crasher Wake]], but before Fantina.
* Fantina's Haunter in Pokémon Platinum is not the same one as the Gengar she uses at the Match Place, as that Gengar is female while the Haunter is male.

===Quotes===
Before battle: 
''"Hello! Welcome to the Pokémon League! I'm Aaron of the Elite Four. It's good to meet you. oh, I should explain, I'm a huge fan of bug Pokémon. Bug Pokémon are nasty-mean, and yet they're beautiful, too... Would you like to know why I take on challengers here, in this room? It's because I want to become perfect, just like my bug Pokémon! Ok! Let me take you on!"

During battle: 
''"Not yet! Your first Pokémon League victory doesn't come easily, kid."''

When defeated: 
''"I will now concede defeat. But I think you came to see how great Bug-type Pokémon can be. I hope you also realized why you're up against in the Pokémon League. Battling is a deep and complex affair..."''

After battle: 
''"I lost with the most beautiful and toughest of the bug Pokémon... We lost because I wasn't good enough... That's it! Back to training camp! Let's hear it for me! No... That was wrong... Anyway... Go on to the next room! Three Trainers are waiting for you. They are all tougher than me."''

Last words: 
''"Go on, go to the next room. I'm going to become a top-level Trainer who can't be outclassed with my beautiful and tough bug Pokémon!

==Trivia==
* Aaron is the only trainer in {{game|Platinum}} whose animated sprite enters the screen from the top.
* In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Aaron's {{p|Heracross}} knows {{m|Megahorn}} at level 54, a move it normally learns at level 55. The only way for this to happen normally would be for a female Heracross to be [[breeding|bred]] with a Pokémon that already knows the move, as the offspring would hatch with the [[egg moves|move]].
* In Platinum, he is the only Elite Four member who still has a Pokémon that is not of his specialty type. {{p|Drapion}} is a {{2t|Poison|Dark}} Pokémon, though it evolves from the {{2t|Poison|Bug}} {{p|Skorupi}}. Also, {{p|Drapion}} ''is'' part of the Bug-type egg group.
* In Platinum, he is the only member of the Elite Four who does not have a move of their specialty type on their Pokémon-his Heracross.

'''Riolu''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''リオル''' ''Riolu'') is a {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Lucario}} by [[Happiness#Evolutions|Happiness]] during the [[Time|day]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Riolu is a small, blue, dog-like Pokémon. Its legs and torso are colored black. Riolu's tail is blue and it has a yellow collar. There are rounded bumps on the backs of Riolu's forepaws,which could be the beginnings of the spikes on {{p|Lucario}}'s forepaws. Riolu has a black "mask" and red eyes.
====Gender differences====
None.
====Special abilities====
Riolu are sensitive to a special type of energy called [[Aura]]. Riolu's evolved form, Lucario, can use these waves to attack, or study these waves to predict the movements of their opponents, and use them to track anyone. However, Riolu does not have the ability to fully use these powers, although it can still emanate these waves to communicate and sense them - albeit only in "ripples" as opposed to the "waves" of energy its evolution can sense and guide. Most notably, it cannot learn {{m|Aura Sphere}} or {{m|Detect}} naturally, two moves that Lucario learns that are often attributed to its aura powers. However, it does have a remarkably similar movepool to the [[Hitmons]].

Like almost all Fighting-type Pokémon, Riolu naturally has superhuman strength, stamina, and endurance and is capable of making long journeys on foot in a short amount of time.

===Behavior===
===Habitat===
Riolu is incredibly rare in the wild. It's so rare that the general location of Riolu dwellings are largely unknown.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:RioluAuraSphere.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Riolu in [[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]]]
Riolu has made an appearance during ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]] [[DP072|and Two]]'', which aired as a one hour special commemorating the release of [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]. This Riolu had been trained to use {{m|Aura Sphere}} and was unnaturally strong. It was taken away from its owner by a group that wanted to exploit it but Ash and co. returned it, with [[Kellyn]]'s help. This Riolu developed a strong bond with Ash but ultimately decided to stay with its owner.

==In the manga==
In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga, [[Maylene]] has a Riolu. It is seen using {{m|Drain Punch}} against {{special|Pearl}}'s {{p|Monferno}}, who {{Special|Berlitz}} borrowed in order to fight her.

Then, when {{special|Diamond}} is traveling alone, he is given an egg by [[Riley]], which eventually hatched into a Riolu.

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

==Game data==

==Trivia==
*Riolu is very similar to {{p|Togepi}} in how it is obtained as well as how it evolves. However, it is closer to a concept of a [[baby Pokémon]] than Togepi because its evolution, Lucario, was introduced to the public before it was. Another similarity is that their fully evolved forms are able to learn {{m|Aura Sphere}} and are the only non-[[legendary Pokémon]] capable of learning the move.
*Riolu is the only pure {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon whose evolution is not, as Lucario is Fighting/{{t|Steel}}.
*Riolu is the only baby Pokémon unavailable in the wild in any game.

==Origin==
Riolu appears to be based on the Egyptian god {{wp|Anubis}}, who has the head of a jackal.

===Name origin===
Riolu's name is merely Lucario's name with the last syllable placed in the front and the ''ca'' part taken out altogether.

'''Vacuum Wave''' is a slightly damaging {{type2|Fighting}} move introduced in [[Generation IV]].

==Effect==
Vacuum Wave does damage, and is an increased [[priority]] move. If the target does not use an increased priority move during the round that it is used, Vacuum Wave will go first regardless of the user's or target's speed. If the target also uses an increased priority move during the same round that the user uses Vacuum Wave, the attack order of the users will be determined normally. If the user is put to sleep or frozen during the round that Vacuum Wave is (or attempts to be) used, Vacuum Wave's increased speed priority will not be reset. Subsequently, it will only be reset on the turn after the user wakes up or is defrosted, or if the user switches out.

Vacuum Wave is a Special-based variation of the move {{m|Mach Punch}}.

==In the anime==

===Pokémon===
'''{{p|Croagunk}}'''. It spins around to gather air. It then releases it by punching the gathered air in the form of a shape.
* Used by [[Nurse Joy|Nurse Joy's Croagunk, Chrissy]] in ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''. '''Debut'''

==Trivia==
* Scyther and Scizor are currently the only Bug-types that can learn Vacuum Wave, not counting Heracross because it is part Fighting-type.
* Chimchar and Mew are the only non-Fighting-Types to learn the move through the move tutor in Pokémon Platinum. However, Chimchar evolves into a part-Fighting-Type, and Mew can learn almost all tutorable moves.

'''Vacuum Wave''' is a slightly damaging {{type2|Fighting}} move introduced in [[Generation IV]].

==Effect==
Vacuum Wave does damage, and is an increased [[priority]] move. If the target does not use an increased priority move during the round that it is used, Vacuum Wave will go first regardless of the user's or target's speed. If the target also uses an increased priority move during the same round that the user uses Vacuum Wave, the attack order of the users will be determined normally. If the user is put to sleep or frozen during the round that Vacuum Wave is (or attempts to be) used, Vacuum Wave's increased speed priority will not be reset. Subsequently, it will only be reset on the turn after the user wakes up or is defrosted, or if the user switches out.

Vacuum Wave is a Special-based variation of the move {{m|Mach Punch}}.

==In the anime==

===Pokémon===

* Used by [[Nurse Joy|Nurse Joy's Croagunk, Chrissy]] in ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''. '''Debut'''

'''Dragonite''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カイリュー''' ''Kairyu'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Flying}} [[pseudo-legendary]] Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dragonair}} starting at [[level]] 55. It is the final evolutionary form of {{p|Dratini}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Despite being bulky, Dragonite are incredibly agile and fast. Unlike it's pre-evolutions, it is orange and possesses arms and legs. They resemble a European dragon, and have a pair of little wings that can increase in size while in flight. It has a taller stature than most humans.
====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Dragonite are very strong. They can cause a great deal of damage to most Pokémon. Dragonite's signature move (prior to Gen {{Gen|III}}) is {{m|Outrage}}, a powerful Dragon-type move. Although it is rather difficult compared to other Pokémon to level a Dragonite up, they gain much more power than most other Pokémon after they evolve.

===Behavior===
Dragonite has a kindhearted disposition. They have been said to save people from drowning and lead ships that have been trapped in storms to safety. Dragonite are said to have a human-matching intelligence. They are extremely fast, so fast that they are able to circle around the globe in sixteen hours.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Water's-edge Pokémon|Water's-edge Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===

==In the anime==
[[Image:D Dragonite.jpg|right|thumb|[[Drake's Dragonite]]]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Dragonite seemed to be an unknown Pokémon before ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', [[Bill]] is seen looking at the Pokémon and calling it unknown. That Dragonite was a [[giant Pokémon]].

The first time that Dragonite actually made an appearance was during ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]].'' The orange dragon delivered an invitation to {{Ash}} and co. to come to New Island.

A {{TP|Drake|Dragonite}} belonging to [[Drake (Orange League)|Drake]] was used to battle [[Ash Ketchum]] in ''[[EP111|Hello Pummello]]'' and ''[[EP112|Enter the Dragonite]]''.

[[Lance]] used his Dragonite to defeat the [[Red Gyarados]] in ''[[EP236|Rage of Innocence]].'' Lance's Dragonite appeared again during ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''.

A Dragonite that belonged to the original [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Blackthorn Gym]] appeared in ''[[EP252|Fangs For Nothing]]''. This Dragonite went on a rampage when [[Team Rocket]] tried to steal a sacred bowl of fire in the following episode.

[[Professor Oak]] is revealed to own a very powerful Dragonite in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon Special]], [[Lance]], leader of the [[Elite Four]], has a Dragonite.

==Trivia==
* Dragonite has the second highest base stat average of all non-legendary Pokémon, the first being Slaking. However, it is tied with the four other [[pseudo-legendary]] evolutions. Dragonite is also tied with many other legendaries for base stat average, including {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}}.
* Its stats are fairly similar to {{p|Salamence}}'s, with Salamence having lower defenses but higher Speed and slightly higher HP.
* In [[Generation I]] games, Dragonite didn't have a horn. One was added during Generation II. However there does appear to be a horn on Dragonite's [[Pokémon Green Version|Green]] sprite.
* Of all the evolved Pokémon that evolve by level alone, Dragonite evolves to its final form later than any other Pokémon, at level 55. It shares this trait with {{p|Tyranitar}}.
* A Dragonite in Red, Blue, and Green has an illegal move, {{M|Barrier}}. This Dragonite belonged to [[Lance]]. Lance would later have another Pokémon with an illegal move: A [[Generation II]] {{p|Aerodactyl}} that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} (Aerodactyl could not learn Rock Slide legally until [[Generation III]]).
* In Red and Blue, Dragonite's unevolved form Dratini has the lines on its stomach that it shares with Dragonite. However Dragonair, the middle evolution, does not.
===Origin===
Appearance-wise, it is similar to {{wp|European dragon}}s. In regards to its friendly nature and high intelligence, it is closer to a ''lóng'', a traditional {{wp|Chinese dragon}} who brings good luck.
====Name origin====
Dragonite's name appears to be a combination of ''{{wp|dragon}}'' and ''{{wp|knight}},'' "ignite," or ''night''. It could also refer to ''draconite'', a mythical stone of dragons. Its Japanese name is a combination of 海 ''kai'', ocean, or 破壊 ''hakai'', destruction, and 竜 ''ryū'', dragon.

==In other languages==

*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Dracolosse - ''Draco'' is {{P|Dragonair}}'s name in French, and ''colosse'' means colossal.

'''Dragonair''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ハクリュー''' ''Hakuryu'') is a {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dratini}} starting at [[level]] 30, and evolves into {{p|Dragonite}} starting at level 55.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Dragonair are long, serpent-like Pokémon that can be up to 13′01″ (4.0m) long. They have dark, glossy eyes and a small, unicorn-like horn on their foreheads. On either side of their heads are small feathery wings which may assist Dragonair in flight. Dragonair are covered in sapphire-blue scales, except for their bellies, which are a bright white. A feature unique to Dragonair are the small blue orbs that appear under their necks and on the ends of their tails.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Dragonair are said to have the ability to control the weather and surrounding climate; they also give out a distinct, gentle aura that can be felt by humans. Many people have also seen these Pokémon flying, even though they have no wings (except for the small wings on their heads, which are too small to assist them in flight). Dragonair also host a large amount of energy within their bodies which they discharge from their crystals, this allows them to change the weather.

===Behavior===
Dragonair are docile Pokémon that give out a gentle aura that can be felt by people nearby. Although shy and protective of their habitat, they are also very powerful dragon Pokémon.
Dragonair have the ability Shed Skin, which gives it a 1/3 chance of refreshing its status if it is inflicted with a status ailment.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Water's-edge Pokémon|Water's-edge Pokémon]]]]
Dragonair are rare Pokémon that often inhabit lakes and seas.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
 Not much is known about this Pokémon's diet, as they are so reclusive, but it is assumed they eat berries like most Pokémon do.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Dragonair anime.jpg|left|thumb|Dragonair from ''[[AG152|On Olden Pond]]'']]
Dragonair first appeared in the [[banned episode]], [[EP035]]. The [[Kaiser|warden]] of the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] was protecting it.

[[Clair]]'s Dratini evolved into a Dragonair in ''[[EP251|Beauty is Skin Deep]]''.

In ''[[AG152|On Olden Pond]]'', a Dragonair was living in a lake that a businessman once planned to build a luxury resort on.

==In the manga==
Lance owns two, one caught previously, the other stolen and brainwashed; the one which was offered as a prize in the Surf contest.

*Dragonair is one of a few Pokémon who shrinks when it [[evolution|evolves]], alongside {{p|Gloom}} into {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Porygon}} into {{p|Porygon2}}, and {{p|Haunter}} into {{p|Gengar}}.
*Despite being said to be able to change the weather as one of its natural abilities, Dragonair needs to use TMs to learn {{m|Hail}}, {{m|Sunny Day}}, {{m|Rain Dance}}, and {{m|Sandstorm}}.
*Though mentioned and seen in the anime to have the ability to fly, Dragonair is unable to use the HM {{m|Fly}}, or any other Flying-type moves for that matter.
*Dragonair evolves at the highest level (55) of any Pokémon, ignoring evolution cancelling. The only other Pokémon that evolves at that level is {{p|Pupitar}}.
*In [[Blackthorn City]], a woman is willing to trade her Rhydon for a female Dragonair. This makes Dragonair the only Pokémon to be required to be a certain gender for an in-game trade.
*In its {{2v2|Gold|Silver}} {{shiny2}} sprites, it is shown to be lavender, almost like the normal {{p|Dratini}}'s coloration. However in the newer games, its shiny form is pink.
*Even though Dragonair lives in water and can learn Water/Ice type moves, it is not a Water-type itself. It shares this trait with its pre-evolution Dratini and Lugia.
*Although Dragonair has a horn, it can not learn the move Megahorn.
*Unlike most Pokémon, it shrinks in height when it evolves into Dragonite.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on {{wp|sea serpent}}s or ''lóng'', traditional {{wp|Chinese dragon}}s who bring good luck.
====Name origin====
Dragonair's name appears to be a combination of ''dragon'' and ''air'', referring to its ability to change the weather, or "lair", the home of a dragon. It may also be a play on the word ''debonair''. ''Hakuryū'' could be taken to mean 白竜, white dragon. Hakuryu was also the name of the dragonlike companion of Hakai from the legend of the [[wp:Journey to the West|journey to the west]] in Buddhist lore.

'''Dragonair''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ハクリュー''' ''Hakuryu'') is a {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dratini}} starting at [[level]] 30, and evolves into {{p|Dragonite}} starting at level 55.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Dragonair are long, serpent-like Pokémon that can be up to 13′01″ (4.0m) long. They have dark, glossy eyes and a small, unicorn-like horn on their foreheads. On either side of their heads are small feathery wings which may assist Dragonair in flight. Dragonair are covered in sapphire-blue scales, except for their bellies, which are a bright white. A feature unique to Dragonair are the small blue orbs that appear under their necks and on the ends of their tails.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Dragonair are said to have the ability to control the weather and surrounding climate; they also give out a distinct, gentle aura that can be felt by humans. Many people have also seen these Pokémon flying, even though they have no wings (except for the small wings on their heads, which are too small to assist them in flight). Dragonair also host a large amount of energy within their bodies which they discharge from their crystals, this allows them to change the weather.

===Behavior===
Dragonair are docile Pokémon that give out a gentle aura that can be felt by people nearby. Although shy and protective of their habitat, they are also very powerful dragon Pokémon.
Dragonair have the ability Shed Skin, which gives it a 1/3 chance of refreshing its status if it is inflicted with a status ailment.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Water's-edge Pokémon|Water's-edge Pokémon]]]]
Dragonair are rare Pokémon that often inhabit lakes and seas.

[[Clair]]'s Dratini evolved into a Dragonair in ''[[EP251|Beauty is Skin Deep]]''.

In ''[[AG152|On Olden Pond]]'', a Dragonair was living in a lake that a businessman once planned to build a luxury resort on.

'''Lugia''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルギア''' ''Lugia'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Flying}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

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

It is often considered to be closely related to {{p|Ho-Oh}}, even sometimes as its polar opposite, represented by [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Silver]] is Lugia as "guardian of the seas", and [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Gold]] represents Ho-Oh as "guardian of the skies."

Lugia is the [[version mascot]] of [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Pokémon Silver]], appearing on the boxart.

In [[Pokémon XD]], [[Shadow Lugia]], codenamed '''XD001''', is a main part of the storyline, and [[Cipher]]'s ultimate [[Shadow Pokémon]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Lugia are very large creatures which bear a resemblance to something between a dragon, a plesiosaur, and a bird. They are primarily pale silver-white, but have blue undersides with slightly varying tones. Their bodies are smooth and streamlined, with the exception of dark blue or black spike-like protrusions which run down the length of their back, and two smaller ones on the ends of their tails. It has five finger-like appendages at the end of its wings. Due to a somewhat similar appearance, they may be related to {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}}.

====Gender differences====
None noticeable, however, this species is highly intelligent and one could possibly ask Lugia which gender it is (since the species can speak with humans in the same manner {{p|Mewtwo}} does). Unlike most legendary Pokémon, young Lugia have been observed, suggesting that there is a breeding population of these creatures.

===Special abilities===
Lugia are thought to be the leaders of the [[legendary birds]] of [[Kanto]]. Much like the birds, it possesses the ability to control the weather, most notably it can calm storms. It is said that a light flutter of their wings is capable of causing winds powerful enough to blow houses over. If it were to flap its wings it could hypothetically spawn storms lasting as much as 40 days. They are highly intelligent, and because of the devastating power it could accidentally inflict, it isolates itself deep underwater.

Lugia is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learns {{m|Aeroblast}}.

===Behavior===
Not very much is known about the behavior of Lugia, as they are fantastically rare and elusive Pokémon. Lugia have been observed with their offspring, suggesting that unlike other [[legendary Pokémon]], they have a breeding population. They are generally calm and benevolent, it is believed the reason they tend to isolate themselves from civilization is to protect humans from their great powers. However, like all creatures, they can become enraged if they feel threatened, particularly if they are protecting their young. Because of this contact with Lugia is best done carefully, most attempts at capturing one of these magnificent creatures has ended poorly, and is ill advised as their role in regulating world climate is still not well understood.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Rare.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rare Pokémon|Rare Pokémon]]]]
Lugia usually live deep in the ocean, not because they are natural sea-dwellers, but because they fear that they can accidentally cause untold devastation. Lugia are typically spotted near the [[Whirl Islands]] of Johto.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:LugiaAnime.jpg|thumb|right|Lugia in the intro of ''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'']]A large {{OBP|Lugia|The Power of One}} was featured in ''[[The Power of One]]''.

A parent Lugia and its child (nicknamed {{jo|Silver}} by [[Oliver]]) lived near [[Silver Rock Isle]] in the [[Whirl Islands]].

==Other appearances==
[[Image:Lugia Brawl.jpg|right|thumb|Lugia in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Lugia will fly up and return in the background where it unleashes a powerful {{m|Aeroblast}} on the stage.

====Melee trophy information====
The waters of the [[Whirl Islands]] are home to this legendary Pokémon, whom very few have seen. Lugia live quietly in the deepest ocean trenches for one very good reason: its combined aerial and psychic powers are so strong as to be extremely dangerous. The special moves of this gargantuan creature include the destructive wind assault known as Aeroblast.

==Trivia==
* Lugia is one of the three legendary Pokémon whose location has changed between generations.
* Lugia is so far the only legendary Pokémon to appear in three consecutive regular Pokémon episodes.
* The fins on Lugia's back, tail and around its eyes have been seen equally as black or blue.
* Lugia and {{p|Latias}} are the only legendary Pokémon in the anime to be seen being able to produce offspring.
* Before the introduction of {{g|Gold and Silver Versions|a}}, Lugia was known as "Pokémon X." Even in the anime, [[Dr. Namba]] refers to Lugia as "Pokémon X."
* In {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, Lugia has the same music as normal [[wild Pokémon]]. The same applies to {{p|Ho-Oh}}.
* Lugia is not the first Pokémon with its type combination in the National Dex: two other Pokémon ({{p|Natu}} and {{p|Xatu}}) come first. Also, no other Pokémon have been introduced since with the same type combination. It shares this trait with {{p|Ho-Oh}}.
* Even though Lugia is the "Diving Pokémon," and can effectively use {{t|Water}} and {{type2|Ice}} moves, it is not a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon itself. It shares this trait with Dratini and Dragonair, who also live in water.
* Lugia, along with the Wash Forme of Rotom, are the only non-Water-types to learn {{m|Hydro Pump}} by level-up.
* Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Mewtwo all share the same 106/90/130/90/154/110 base stat amounts. What differs among them is what amount is allotted to each stat.
===Origin===
Lugia is based on {{wp|Ryūjin}}.

Appearance-wise, Lugia seems to be based on the {{wp|Stegosaurus}} (back plates and tail spikes) and the {{wp|Pleisosaurus}} (long neck and swimming ability).
====Name origin====
Lugia's name may come from ''{{wp|Lutetium}}'', a silverish element. Possibly also ''lugeo'', meaning to lie dormant, alluding to the way Lugia lies at the bottom of the sea. The Lu- may come from ''luna'', meaning moon.

'''Lugia''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルギア''' ''Lugia'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Flying}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

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

It is often considered to be closely related to {{p|Ho-Oh}}, even sometimes as its polar opposite, represented by [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Silver]] is Lugia as "guardian of the seas", and [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Gold]] represents Ho-Oh as "guardian of the skies."

Lugia is the [[version mascot]] of [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Pokémon Silver]], appearing on the boxart.

In [[Pokémon XD]], [[Shadow Lugia]], codenamed '''XD001''', is a main part of the storyline, and [[Cipher]]'s ultimate [[Shadow Pokémon]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Lugia are very large creatures which bear a resemblance to something between a dragon, a plesiosaur, and a bird. They are primarily pale silver-white, but have blue undersides with slightly varying tones. Their bodies are smooth and streamlined, with the exception of dark blue or black spike-like protrusions which run down the length of their back, and two smaller ones on the ends of their tails. It has five finger-like appendages at the end of its wings. Due to a somewhat similar appearance, they may be related to {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}}.

====Gender differences====
None noticeable, however, this species is highly intelligent and one could possibly ask Lugia which gender it is (since the species can speak with humans in the same manner {{p|Mewtwo}} does). Unlike most legendary Pokémon, young Lugia have been observed, suggesting that there is a breeding population of these creatures.

===Special abilities===
Lugia are thought to be the leaders of the [[legendary birds]] of [[Kanto]]. Much like the birds, it possesses the ability to control the weather, most notably it can calm storms. It is said that a light flutter of their wings is capable of causing winds powerful enough to blow houses over. If it were to flap its wings it could hypothetically spawn storms lasting as much as 40 days. They are highly intelligent, and because of the devastating power it could accidentally inflict, it isolates itself deep underwater.

Lugia is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learns {{m|Aeroblast}}.

===Behavior===
Not very much is known about the behavior of Lugia, as they are fantastically rare and elusive Pokémon. Lugia have been observed with their offspring, suggesting that unlike other [[legendary Pokémon]], they have a breeding population. They are generally calm and benevolent, it is believed the reason they tend to isolate themselves from civilization is to protect humans from their great powers. However, like all creatures, they can become enraged if they feel threatened, particularly if they are protecting their young. Because of this contact with Lugia is best done carefully, most attempts at capturing one of these magnificent creatures has ended poorly, and is ill advised as their role in regulating world climate is still not well understood.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Rare.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rare Pokémon|Rare Pokémon]]]]
Lugia usually live deep in the ocean, not because they are natural sea-dwellers, but because they fear that they can accidentally cause untold devastation. Lugia are typically spotted near the [[Whirl Islands]] of Johto.

===Diet===

==In the anime==
[[Image:LugiaAnime.jpg|thumb|right|Lugia in the intro of ''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'']]A large {{OBP|Lugia|The Power of One}} was featured in ''[[The Power of One]]''.

A parent Lugia and its child (nicknamed {{jo|Silver}} by [[Oliver]]) lived near [[Silver Rock Isle]] in the [[Whirl Islands]]. [[Dr. Namba]] attempted to capture both the parent Lugia and Silver for [[Giovanni]] in ''[[EP220|The Mystery is History]]'', ''[[EP221|A Parent Trapped]]'' and ''[[EP222|A Promise is a Promise]]''.

==In the manga==
The Elite Four tried to exterminate humans using a Lugia in the Yellow Saga. The [[Mask of Ice]] caught a Lugia, but subsequently released it.

==In the TCG==

==In the TFG==
One Lugia figure has been released.

==Other appearances==

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Lugia will fly up and return in the background where it unleashes a powerful {{m|Aeroblast}} on the stage.

====Melee trophy information====
The waters of the [[Whirl Islands]] are home to this legendary Pokémon, whom very few have seen. Lugia live quietly in the deepest ocean trenches for one very good reason: its combined aerial and psychic powers are so strong as to be extremely dangerous. The special moves of this gargantuan creature include the destructive wind assault known as Aeroblast.

==Trivia==
* Lugia is one of the three legendary Pokémon whose location has changed between generations.
* Lugia is so far the only legendary Pokémon to appear in three consecutive regular Pokémon episodes.
* The fins on Lugia's back, tail and around its eyes have been seen equally as black or blue.
* Lugia and {{p|Latias}} are the only legendary Pokémon in the anime to be seen being able to produce offspring.
* Before the introduction of {{g|Gold and Silver Versions|a}}, Lugia was known as "Pokémon X." Even in the anime, [[Dr. Namba]] refers to Lugia as "Pokémon X."
* In {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, Lugia has the same music as normal [[wild Pokémon]]. The same applies to {{p|Ho-Oh}}.
* Lugia is not the first Pokémon with its type combination in the National Dex: two other Pokémon ({{p|Natu}} and {{p|Xatu}}) come first. Also, no other Pokémon have been introduced since with the same type combination. It shares this trait with {{p|Ho-Oh}}.
* Even though Lugia is the "Diving Pokémon," and can effectively use {{t|Water}} and {{type2|Ice}} moves, it is not a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon itself.
* Lugia, along with the Wash Forme of Rotom, are the only non-Water-types to learn {{m|Hydro Pump}} by level-up.
* Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Mewtwo all share the same 106/90/130/90/154/110 base stat amounts. What differs among them is what amount is allotted to each stat.
===Origin===
Lugia is based on {{wp|Ryūjin}}.

Appearance-wise, Lugia seems to be based on the {{wp|Stegosaurus}} (back plates and tail spikes) and the {{wp|Pleisosaurus}} (long neck and swimming ability).
====Name origin====
Lugia's name may come from ''{{wp|Lutetium}}'', a silverish element. Possibly also ''lugeo'', meaning to lie dormant, alluding to the way Lugia lies at the bottom of the sea. The Lu- may come from ''luna'', meaning moon.

'''Hypno''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''スリーパー''' ''Sleeper'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Hypno is a bipedal human-like Pokémon that has yellow colored skin. It has two fairly cat-like ears on the top of its head and two very sleepy looking eyes with a giant nose underneath. On its neck, it has a mane of white fur. There's not much else particularly notable about Hypno's body. It has five fingers on each hand and three toes on its feet, which has a pink colored pad on the bottom of it.

====Gender differences====
The fur in a female's mane is longer than a male's mane.

====Special abilities====
Its special abilities allow it to {{m2|Hypnosis|put people to sleep}} and then sense the dreams they are having, so they know what kind of dream they would {{m2|Dream Eater|be eating}}. Hypno is also known to inexplicably conjure up {{m|Poison Gas}}.

===Behavior===
Hypno is known to reside away from humans and on less traveled roads. If anyone comes by, the Hypno will hypnotize it and presumably eat its dreams. It carries around a pendulum, the item it uses to hypnotize victims, everywhere it goes. While it waits for victims, it polishes its pendulum using its mane.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

It {{m2|Dream Eater|feeds on dreams}}. Its special abilities allow it to put people to sleep and then sense the dreams they are having, so they know what kind of dream they would be eating.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Hypno in the anime.GIF|200px|right|thumb|[[Harrison (Johto League)|Harrison's]] Hypno]]
Hypno first appeared in ''[[EP027|Hypno's Naptime]]''. The Pokémon Lover's Club of [[HopHopHop Town]] were using Hypno and Drowzee to help them with their sleeping problems. The "Sleep Waves" from Hypno were causing children to act like Pokémon and draining the energy off of the Pokémon in the local Pokémon Center. Drowzee managed to fix this problem.

{{Jo|Harrison}} used a Hypno against {{Ash}} during the [[Silver Conference]] in ''[[EP271|Playing with Fire]]''.

Hypno also appears in ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony]]''. It lives in an abandoned mining colony with several other Pokémon of {{t2|Psychic|its type}}.

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

==Merchandise==
Hypno was one of the first four Pokémon designs revealed when the [[Pokémon 151]] brand was first announced. The shirt design features an image of Hypno swinging its pendulum from the left side of the shirt.

==Trivia==
* Although Hypno's Pokédex entries say that it feeds on dreams when it is hungry, Hypno can only learn the move {{m|Dream Eater}} through the use of a [[TM]].
* Hypno is shown to have its pendulum in its right hand in its Red, Blue and Yellow sprites. However, Hypno is holding it in its left hand in its Green front sprite and all Generation I back sprites.
* Hypno's Japanese name is ironic, considering as it's the one that ''induces'' sleep, not the one sleeping itself.
* Hypno is the only Psychic-type to learn Nightmare by leveling up, although many other Psychic-types could learn the move through the move tutor in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.

==Origin==
Hypno is based on a [[wp:tapir|tapir]], hypnotist, and [[wp:baku (spirit)|baku]], or dream eater spirit, of Japanese mythology.
===Name origin===
Hypno's name is a shortening of ''hypnosis''. Its Japanese name is simply ''Sleeper'', or one who sleeps.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Hypno
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Hypnomade - ''Hypnose'' means hypnosis, and ''nomade'' means nomad.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 슬리퍼 ''Seullipa''
