List of censored words in Generation V

2020-07-28T14:00:25Z

Arisboch:

{{PA}}
The following is a list of words that are banned from being used as Pokémon [[nickname]]s and other player-input values in the [[Generation V]] [[core series]] games {{game4|Black|White|Black|White|2}}. Most of the words are sex-related or otherwise considered offensive. They are not case-sensitive, and Japanese words are banned in both {{wp|hiragana}} and {{wp|katakana}}.

The censor only prevents inputs in which exactly match the keyword. However, previously, when trying to [[trade]] a Pokémon on the [[Global Trade System|GTS]], the keyword only had to be contained in the name. This caused problems with Pokémon whose names contained the keyword, such as {{p|Cofagrigus}}, preventing them from being traded without nicknames, so the filter was eventually removed. However, the filter still prevents some Pokémon from being traded, such as {{p|Nosepass}}.

Additionally, no more than four numerical digits may be included in any text entry field, although in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, this restriction is removed for [[Pokémon Storage System#Naming Storage Boxes|Box names]] only.

[[Nintendo 3DS]] and [[Nintendo Switch]] software uses a built-in text-entry filter rather than a filter in the game itself. The Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch filters can be changed by system updates, so the list of censored words varies with their respective firmware versions.

'''Ein''' (Japanese: '''ボルグ''' ''Borg'') is one of the original four {{tc|Cipher Admin}}s. A cruel and callous young scientist, he is long on ambition and short on emotion. He is obsessed with the idea of creating an insanely powerful Pokémon at any cost which he managed to do with amazing results.

In battle, Ein prefers to use {{m|Rain Dance}}, then {{m|Thunder}}. He protects his {{type|Water}} Pokémon from {{type|Electric}}-type moves by always having a Pokémon with {{a|Lightningrod}} out on the field. He also likes using {{m|Toxic}}, then using {{m|Protect}} regularly to dodge attacks while the poison damage increases each turn.

==In the games==
Ein is the brains behind the process that creates [[Shadow Pokémon]]. His research reports, the "[[Ein File]]s", can be found across [[Orre]] wherever members of Cipher have been present. He creates Shadow Pokémon in a secluded lab in the middle of a desert, and then has the Pokémon shipped to [[Venus]] and [[Miror B.]] via [[The Under Subway]]. He also does everything in his power to keep the Shadow Pokémon he creates from being [[Purification|purified]]. He tries to have [[Rui]] kidnapped, the [[Relic Stone]] destroyed, and the [[Time Flute]] stolen. Ultimately all these plans are foiled by the {{player}}.

Eventually the player confronts Ein at the [[Cipher Lab|Shadow PKMN Lab]]. Despite him possessing a Shadow version of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Raikou}}, Ein is still defeated. Even in defeat, Ein takes solace in that he has already created {{p|Tyranitar|the ultimate Shadow Pokémon}}, and had it transported to [[Evice|his boss]].

Ein appears again at the [[Realgam Tower]]. The mad scientist had one of the ID Badges to the tower's main entrance. After being defeated again, Ein hands over the [[Ylw ID Badge]] and promptly leaves the tower.

After Cipher has been defeated, Ein appears at the [[Deep Colosseum]], being the final opponent of the fourth round.

===In the Pokémon Colosseum Snatcher Leo manga===
Ein appeared in [[Pokémon Colosseum Snatcher Leo]] manga. He was shown to have a {{p|Starmie}}, {{p|Manectric}}, {{p|Crobat}}, {{p|Pelipper}}, and {{p|Rhydon}}.

==Trivia==
* Ein's name is derived from one of the greatest 20th-century scientists, {{wp|Albert Einstein}} (a possible explanation for the choice of name may be the {{wp|Einstein–Szilárd letter}} to F.D. Roosevelt warning about a possible nuclear bomb project by Nazi Germany that moved Roosevelt to advance the {{wp|Manhattan Project}}).
* Ein bears a striking resemblance to [[Colress]], both in terms of appearance and motive. Both are scientists who wear glasses and a white lab coat and have a hair flick. Furthermore, they both strive to unlock the potential in Pokémon, and side with the [[Cipher|villainous]] [[Team Plasma|team]] of their [[Pokémon Colosseum|respective]] {{game|Black and White|s|games|2}}.

'''Kyogre''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カイオーガ''' ''Kyogre'') is a {{type|Water}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it can undergo [[Primal Reversion]] and become '''Primal Kyogre''' if it holds the [[Blue Orb]].

Kyogre possesses the ability to expand the oceans. In ancient times, it came into conflict with {{p|Groudon}}, a Pokémon with the ability to expand continents. In {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Sapphire|s}}, {{v2|Emerald}}, and [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]], Kyogre is sought after by [[Team Aqua]] as part of their plot to create more habitats for aquatic Pokémon by raising the sea level.

Kyogre is the [[game mascot]] of Pokémon Sapphire and its remake, Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, with Kyogre appearing on the box art of Sapphire and Primal Kyogre appearing on the box art of Alpha Sapphire.

Along with {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Rayquaza}}, Kyogre is a part of the [[weather trio]].

==Biology==
Kyogre is a massive whale-like Pokémon with two big pectoral fins, each with four white square-shaped nails. It has a deep blue body and a white chin area with two small spikes protruding under it. Above each eye are two white, oval-shaped spots. It has red stripes around its chin, eyes, dorsal fins, and torso. These stripes glow when Kyogre is brimming with power. The tail is tattered with four trailing parts, the inner ones being smaller than the outer. Its eyes are small, yellow, and shadowed with black.

Primal Kyogre retains its general body structure, but grows to more than double the size of its base form. Its main skin color becomes a darker shade of blue, the red markings along its body become light blue, and its eyes glow yellow with orange irises and orange-red pupils. The markings on its pectoral fins slightly change to form {{tt|α|Alpha}} symbols, which connect to its outer nails with red markings connecting the inner nails. Every part of its skin that was white in its base form becomes clear and translucent, with the large ovals on its head now connected to clear markings stretching from its tail to its forehead, where another {{tt|α|Alpha}} symbol is formed. The trailing parts of its tail grow longer and gain translucent webbing, and the areas between its pectoral fin markings also become clear. The translucent parts of its body reveal organ-like structures that glow with a mysterious light; it has a large "organ" at the center of its body, two smaller ones aligned with the large oval markings, and two more located in its pectoral fins. In the [[SS031|anime]], Primal Kyogre is said to have widened the seas by a large margin simply by taking a swim.

Kyogre is said to be a powerful Pokémon, having control over the element of water and rain. It is said to have expanded the seas, and is hailed as a savior for quenching areas of the world plagued with drought. Kyogre is normally calm and peaceful, but if it meets its rival, {{p|Groudon}}, Kyogre will engage in a cataclysmic battle against it. In the {{pkmn|Mystery Dungeon series}} and [[core series]], Kyogre is able to fly. Kyogre generally lives deep in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean}}, and is said to rest in a deep trench. Kyogre is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Origin Pulse}}.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Kyogre M09.png|thumb|left|250px|Kyogre in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
[[File:Primal Kyogre anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Primal Kyogre in the anime]]
====Major appearances====
====={{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Kyogre|Kyogre (anime)}}=====
Kyogre made its physical main series debut in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]''. [[Team Magma]] had captured Kyogre but didn't have [[Blue Orb|the correct orb]] to control it, so they planned to make a trade with [[Team Aqua]], who had captured Groudon. The trade was about to be made when [[Archie]] decided to use Kyogre to destroy everyone, including his fellow henchmen. The {{pkmn|battle}} between Kyogre and Groudon occurred during the following episode, ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''.

=====Other=====
A Kyogre appeared in ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]''. It appeared along with countless other {{type|Water}} Pokémon when {{Ash}} replaced all of the [[Sea Crown]]'s crystals. However, when [[The Phantom]] attempted to make all the Water-types panic using supersonic waves from his ship, Kyogre was part of the ensuing commotion. {{OBP|Manaphy|M09}} calmed them down using {{m|Heart Swap}} to rid the Pokémon of their confusion, and some {{p|Wailord}} broke open The Phantom's ship, followed by some {{p|Chinchou}} swimming into the opening and short-circuiting the ship. Kyogre then used {{m|Hyper Beam}} on the ship, destroying it.

A Kyogre made a cameo appearance in ''[[SS031|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', where it was shown being awakened by the presence of the [[Giant Rock]]. It played a bigger role in ''[[SS032|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', where it was shown in its [[Primal Reversion|primal state]], fighting with Primal Groudon over the Giant Rock. It also fought [[Steven's Metagross|Steven's Mega Metagross]], and was almost defeated by it until Metagross was defeated by {{me|Rayquaza}}. The same Kyogre reappeared in flashbacks during ''[[XY092|Cloudy Fate, Bright Future!]]'' and ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]''.

A Kyogre briefly appeared in the beginning of ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', being one of the many Pokémon summoned by {{an|Hoopa}} to defeat in the past. A Primal Kyogre later appeared as one of six [[Legendary Pokémon]] summoned and hypnotized by the shadow {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Hoopa|Hoopa Unbound}} as its reinforcements. It and its teammates engaged in a battle against the {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, and {{Shiny}} {{p|Rayquaza}} summoned to protect the real Hoopa in [[Dahara City]]. Eventually, after the shadow Hoopa was sealed in a [[Prison Bottle]], the hypnosis on Primal Kyogre and the other Legendary Pokémon was lifted, and Primal Kyogre departed for its home.

[[File:Primal Kyogre PG.png|thumb|220px|Primal Kyogre in Pokémon Generations]]
A wild Kyogre appeared in ''[[PG08|The Cavern]]'', where it was awoken by [[Archie]] inside the [[Seafloor Cavern]], who used the [[Blue Orb]] to turn it into its [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] form. It escaped the Cavern and swam through its surrounding waters and surfaced above the ocean before creating a massive storm, threatening to destroy [[Hoenn]]. It was last seen attacking Archie and other members of [[Team Aqua]] when he tried to calm it down.

In the {{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, [[Blaise]] and [[Aqua Admin Amber|Amber]] tricked {{p|Hoopa}} into summoning Kyogre and Groudon from their places of rest.

====Trophy information====
''"A Sea Basin Pokémon. It brought down heavy rains, which formed seas and relieved droughts. It is usually found slumbering at the bottom of an ocean trench. Its attack {{m|Sheer Cold}} is a technique so powerful, it causes any opponent it strikes to [[one-hit knockout move|faint instantly]]. In battle, it causes clouds to form and drenches the area in rain. It once had a fierce battle with {{p|Groudon}}."''

====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''This Water-type Pokémon roughly resembles an orca whale, though its large fins also look a bit like hands. Be wary of its Hydro Pump attack, which is capable of sending you flying off the stage. Even worse, it will chase after you, making it even harder to recover from the attack.''

'''PAL''': ''This orca-like Water-type Pokémon is known for the distinctive shape of its fins and the red markings along its body. It will use Hydro Pump to send fighters flying off the stage, and then proceed to chase after them to make recovering from the attack a nightmare.''

==Trivia==
[[File:Marina.png|thumb|Marina's Kyogre Costume]]
* In games prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Kyogre has a catch rate of 5.
* [[Palace Maven Spenser]] has a staff with Kyogre's markings on it.
* Primal Kyogre has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} base stat, {{stat|Special Defense}} base stat, and base stat total of all {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.
* In [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], Marina has a [[Pokémon cosplay|costume]] based on Kyogre.
* In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, a Kyogre that knows {{m|Surf}} will allow the {{player}} to travel more quickly on water than with other Pokémon. This action has its own animation and larger hitbox.
** Additionally, a Kyogre that knows {{m|Dive}} will allow the player to avoid underwater trainer battles. This action also has its own animation and larger hitbox.
* Primal Kyogre is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Kyogre may be modeled after the Earth's oceans and may also be a personification of the ocean. Its conflict with Groudon is similar to that of {{wp|Leviathan}} and {{wp|Behemoth}}, who would start a battle that would kill them both at the end of time. Like Kyogre, Leviathan is associated with the sea, and the Hebrew word for Leviathan is now used for whales in Modern Hebrew, which may be why Kyogre's appearance also draws inspiration from {{wp|whale}}s, especially the {{wp|Killer whale|orca}}. However, Leviathan does not resemble Kyogre in traditional depictions.

====Name origin====
Kyogre may be a combination of 海 ''kai'' (ocean) and ''{{wp|killer whale|orca}}'' (a species described as a whale, but is more closely related to dolphins). Notably, it may also involve 海王 ''kaiō'' (king of the sea), which are the first two characters in 海王星 ''Kaiōsei'' ({{wp|Neptune}}).

==Blurb==
Detective Looker of the International Police uncovers critical information in the hunt for Team Rocket Boss Giovanni!

==Plot==
At the [[International Police]] base, a search for the location of the [[Team Rocket]] Boss [[Giovanni]] is underway. An agent informs [[Looker]] how Team Rocket had taken over [[Kanto]] [[region]]'s underworld, and is suspected for illegally poaching and trafficking Pokémon. A successful raid was executed at the [[Celadon Game Corner|Celadon City Game Corner]] controlled by Team Rocket, recovering all of the Pokémon held captive there. Also, Team Rocket's plans to take over the [[Silph Co.]] were reported to have been thwarted. All of the {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s arrested by the police were incapable and unwilling to tell anything about Giovanni's future plans. Suddenly, one of the agents informs Looker that they have finally discovered Giovanni's location: the [[Viridian Gym]].

At nightfall, a squadron of International Police officers equipped with {{wp|Riot control|riot gear}} arrive at the Viridian Gym. Looker orders the men to surround the [[Gym]] in three-man teams, taking two men with himself to the front door. Knowing that Giovanni is an experienced [[Pokémon Trainer]], Looker advises his men to take caution. One of the officers sends out a {{p|Magnemite}}, which quickly breaks through the front door's electronic lock. Through his comm-link, Looker orders all teams to move forward, as he and his men rush through the front door and spread out. One team breaks through the wall with the help of their {{p|Machamp}}, while another team uses their {{p|Arcanine}}'s {{m|Flamethrower}} to melt a hole into the wall.

Rushing through the Gym with a {{p|Growlithe}}, Looker is confused about why Giovanni would be here, as the Viridian Gym was supposed to have been closed off. He and Growlithe arrive at the door that leads to the battlefield, and after a few seconds of preparation, they rush in, only to find an empty room. Looker examines the floor, seeing recent traces of an explosion. A team of officers enters the room, informing Looker that the Viridian Gym is empty.

In a follow-up investigation, the International Police is surprised to find out that Giovanni was actually the [[Gym Leader]] of the Viridian Gym. After handing [[Badge]]s to {{ga|Blue|two}} {{ga|Red|Trainers}}, he had simply disappeared. On a hill near [[Viridian City]], Giovanni declares that Team Rocket will never fall and that all Pokémon exist solely for the use of Team Rocket, before walking away. As the episode ends, Looker mentions the rumors about Team Rocket having been disbanded, although the truth is shrouded in mystery.

==Major events==
* [[Looker]] begins to search for [[Giovanni]] in order to arrest him.
* Looker and the [[International Police]] storm the [[Viridian Gym]] in search for Giovanni, but he is nowhere to be found.
* Giovanni leaves [[Viridian City]], leading to rumors that [[Team Rocket]] has been disbanded.
* During a follow-up investigation, the International Police discovers that Giovanni was the [[Gym Leader]] of Viridian City, who had disappeared after being defeated by {{ga|Blue|two}} {{ga|Red|Trainers}}.

==Trivia==
* [[Giovanni]] spoke in the German dub with a pronounced Spanish accent despite the mafia connotations of his name in the dubs. When he appeared again in [[PG05]], he had no accent.

'''Dusknoir''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヨノワール''' ''Yonoir'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dusclops}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Reaper Cloth]]. It is the final form of {{p|Duskull}}.

==Biology==
Dusknoir is a primarily black Pokémon somewhat resembling a cyclops. Its cylindrical head is light gray with a single eye that has a yellow iris and a red pupil. There is a yellow band near the top of its head, and a short, yellow antenna with a disc-shaped tip extends from on top. Six flat projections extend from the base of its neck and surround its head, resembling an {{wp|upturned collar}}. Dusknoir has well-developed arms with two yellow bands near its wrists and large, gray hands. On the front of its torso are two almond-shaped marking, and on its back are two circular markings. Both sets of markings resemble eyes. A yellow band encircles its body, zigzagging along the front and forming a long curve around the back. It has a wispy tail in place of feet.

The antenna on Dusknoir's head allows it to receive transmissions from the [[Ghost World|spirit world]], which tell it to bring people there. However, [[DP090|the anime]] has also shown it protecting people from being taken to the spirit world. The band on its body can open, similar to a mouth. It uses this ability to take spirits into its body and carry them home or as it travels to unknown places.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Dusknoir appears to be a ghostly {{wp|cyclops}}. A Japanese one-eyed mountain-dwelling creature named the {{jwp|山童|Yamawarawa}} may also have been the inspiration for this Pokémon. Like Dusclops, due to its rotund shape and single eye, it may also be based on the {{wp|Chōchin-obake}}. Its ability to receive transmissions from the world of spirits may be based on paranormal explanations for {{wp|Electronic voice phenomenon#Explanations and origins|electronic voice phenomena}}.

====Name origin====
Dusknoir is a combination of ''{{wp|dusk}}'' and ''{{wp|black|noir}}'' (French for ''black'').

Yonoir is a combination of 妖魔 yōma (ghost) or 夜 ''yoru'' (night) and ''noir''.

Extraterrestrial Pokémon

2018-04-10T20:40:20Z

Arisboch: /* Additional cases */

{{unknown name}}
[[File:ORAS Mega Rayquaza Deoxys artwork.png|thumb|400px|During the [[Delta Episode]], players with {{p|Rayquaza}} battle a {{p|Deoxys}} that originates from outer space.]]
'''Extraterrestrial Pokémon''' is a fan term commonly used to refer to any Pokémon believed to have originated from somewhere outside the [[Pokémon world]]. The term encompasses both Pokémon believed to have arrived from outer space and those that inhabit other [[dimensions]] ("extradimensional" Pokémon). Evidence for extraterrestrial Pokémon can often be found in [[Pokédex]] entries, although these are not the only source of this information.

These Pokémon have apparently adapted to the environment of the Pokémon world. Many of these Pokémon can breed with terrestrial Pokémon and evolve in the same ways. Additionally, [[items]] that work on terrestrial Pokémon, such as [[Poké Balls]] and Potions, work just as well on extraterrestrial Pokémon.

There are many myths involving Pokémon originating outside of the Pokémon world because of their resemblance and relation to extraterrestrial bodies, and in some canons there are characters who speculate non-earthly origins for ''all'' Pokémon.

==In the games==
In the games, the majority of the information on extraterrestrial Pokémon comes from two main sources: their respective [[Pokédex]] entries and the local mythos surrounding the Pokémon.
{{spoilers}}
===Extraterrestrial Pokémon===
====Deoxys====
[[File:Kanto Route 3 meteorites HGSS.png|thumb|200px|The meteorites located at the southwest end of Route 3.]]

All Pokédex entries regarding this Pokémon explain that it was originally an alien virus that fell to earth in a meteor. Exposure to a laser beam mutated the virus's DNA, resulting in the Pokémon {{p|Deoxys}}. Upon further exposure to meteorites, Deoxys's [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Deoxys|Forme]] will change. Deoxys has four formes, adapted for survivability in the wild, and its specialized formes have some of the highest [[base stats]] of any Pokémon. The crystalline organ on its chest appears to be its brain, a departure from typical terrestrial Pokémon biology. Deoxys are described by the Pokédex as highly intelligent, possessing psychokinetic abilities, and are associated with auroras.

A Deoxys is encountered at the conclusion of [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]’s [[Delta Episode]]. After the battle with Zinnia (regardless of its outcome), Zinnia entrusts the player with destroying the approaching meteoroid. The player dons the {{key|VI|Magma Suit}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{key|VI|Aqua Suit}}{{sup/6|AS}} and rides Rayquaza out to space to destroy the meteoroid. When Rayquaza shatters the meteoroid, however, a triangular object emerges from the middle of the debris. After a moment of darting around, tendrils snake out of the object before it bursts apart to reveal the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Deoxys}}, who immediately engages the player in a battle.

====Cleffa evolutionary family====
[[File:Clefairy Dancing HGSS.png|thumb|Clefairy dance in a ring at [[Mt. Moon Square]] every Monday night.]]

The star-shaped {{p|Cleffa}} are said to have come to earth on meteorites. Wherever a meteorite lands, there is always a Cleffa near. In HGSS, Cleffa and their evolved forms, {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}, dance in a ring on Monday nights, nights with a full moon, and on nights when meteor showers occur. Clefairy and its evolutionary relatives tend to make their habitat at impact sites, and Clefairy evolves into Clefable from a Moon Stone, further evidence that they are extraterrestrial in origin.

====Staryu and Starmie====
{{p|Starmie}} are said to be extraterrestrials because of their star-shape and their seven colored core, which emits radio signals into space at night. {{p|Staryu}} behave similarly, gathering at night and flashing their red cores to communicate with the stars. They are also known to have remarkable regenerative abilities, including {{m|Recover}} and {{a|Natural Cure}}.

====Lunatone and Solrock====
{{p|Lunatone}} and {{p|Solrock}} are said to have come from space and to draw their power from lunar and solar rays, respectively. They are both known as "Meteorite Pokémon," as they were discovered [[Meteor Falls|near a meteorite strike site]] approximately 40 years prior to the events of [[Pokémon X and Y]].

====Elgyem and Beheeyem====
{{p|Elgyem}} and {{p|Beheeyem}} allegedly appeared 50 years prior to the events of {{2v|Black|White}} in the [[Desert Resort]]. It is unknown how or why they appeared, although rumors of its origin are linked to a UFO crash site. This could be explained by their ability to rewrite the memories of the people and Pokémon around them. They survive hostile encounters by using their {{t|psychic}} powers to confuse opponents. In the present day, they are no longer found in the desert, and have relocated to high up in the [[Celestial Tower]] and [[Unova Route 14]], respectively. In {{2v|Black|White|2}}, Beheeyem are no longer found in Unova Route 14. These Pokémon appear to be based on alien conspiracy theories including {{wp|Area 51#UFO and other conspiracy theories concerning Area 51|those surrounding Area 51}} and the {{wp|Roswell UFO incident|Roswell incident}}.

====Kyurem====
[[File:Giant Chasm Crater Forest Summer B2W2.png|thumb|200px|The [[Giant Chasm]] impact crater as it appears in [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Versions]].]]

In an old legend in [[Lacunosa Town]], a large meteor fell from the sky, apparently containing {{p|Kyurem}}. At night, the "monster" would bring cold winds and take people and Pokémon away, to eat them. The town residents then surrounded Lacunosa Town with a wall to keep Kyurem out, and a rule was set on the town that forbade anyone from leaving the town at night, and encouraged them to stay in their homes. Even to this day, the residents remain in their houses at night and the wall is still standing. Kyurem lives in the [[Giant Chasm]], the impact crater of the meteor which supposedly brought Kyurem to [[Unova]]. However, an NPC also states that this myth could possibly be false and {{2v|Black|White|2}} states that Kyurem is actually what was left when the original dragon split into {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.

===Extradimensional Pokémon===
====Gengar====
According to the Pokédex, {{me|Gengar}} sinks into another dimension while waiting for prey.

====Bronzong====
It's described as summoning rain from different dimension.

====Arceus and the [[Creation trio]]====
The '''creation trio''' is a fan term used to refer to three powerful Legendary Pokémon of the [[Sinnoh]] region: {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}. Each of the members of this trio, including its [[trio master]] {{p|Arceus}}, have control over their own [[dimensions]]. Dialga controls time and Palkia controls space, two aspects of the [[wp:spacetime|four-dimensional universe]] that the [[Pokémon world]], like our own, is a part of. Giratina has control over antimatter and the [[Distortion World]], where time does not flow and space is unstable, while Arceus has its own world where the [[Hall of Origin]] is located.
[[File:Distortion World physics.png|thumb|left|The Distortion World as seen in [[Pokémon Platinum Version]]]]

In {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Cyrus]] summons Dialga from its dimension to the [[Spear Pillar]] using the [[Red Chain]]. In {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Cyrus]] summons Palkia from its dimension to the [[Spear Pillar]] using the [[Red Chain]]. In Platinum, a portal to Dialga's dimension appears at the Spear Pillar if the {{player}} has the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Adamant Orb}}. Likewise, a portal to Palkia's dimension appears in Platinum at the Spear Pillar if the {{player}} has the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Lustrous Orb}}. Notably, these portals will never appear at the same time.

{{p|Giratina}} lives in a parallel dimension of {{wp|antimatter}} known as the [[Distortion World]]. Here, the normal rules of time and space do not apply. When it is not in this dimension, Giratina assumes its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Giratina|Altered Forme}}, however, holding the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Griseous Orb}} reverts it to its Origin Forme. Because the other dimensions are inextricably linked with Giratina's dimension, Giratina will viciously defend its world if events in other dimensions threaten it.

{{p|Arceus}} lives in a high dimension, from which it stands guard over the entire [[Pokémon world]]. In the games, this dimension is the [[Hall of Origin]]. The only way to get there is by blowing on the [[Azure Flute]], which was never legitimately released, at the [[Spear Pillar]], the highest point in [[Sinnoh]].

====Dusknoir====
The antenna on Dusknoir's head allows it to receive transmissions from the [[Ghost World|spirit world]], which tell it to bring people there. The band on its body can open, similar to a mouth. It uses this ability to take spirits into its body and carry them home or as it travels to unknown places.
Dusknoir [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dusclops}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Reaper Cloth]]. The Japanese name of the Reaper Cloth (れいかいのぬの ''Spirit World Cloth'') indicates that it comes from the Ghost World.

====[[Ultra Beast]]s====
The Ultra Beasts are native to the dimension known as [[Ultra Space]], which on rare occasions becomes connected with the [[Pokémon world]] via spacetime anomalies called [[Ultra Wormhole]]s. While the Ultra Beasts normally stay within Ultra Space, they can on occasion become stranded outside of it due to the formation of an Ultra Wormhole that leaves them unable to return. This can prove to be dangerous for anyone nearby, as the disorientation involved can often cause them to become violent.

===={{p|Cosmog}} and its evolutions====
Cosmog, along with its evolutions {{p|Cosmoem}}, {{p|Solgaleo}}, and {{p|Lunala}}, are also native to Ultra Space, as evident by their ability to create and manipulate Ultra Wormholes.

===={{p|Necrozma}}====
Necrozma originates from Ultra Space. It can open [[Ultra Wormhole]]s and travel through them back and forth.

===Additional cases===
The following Pokémon are borderline or unclear cases that may or may not fit into either the extraterrestrial or extradimensional categories.

* {{p|Minior}} is said to be formed in the ozone layer, therefore originating from a habitat close to space.
* {{p|Rayquaza}} is also stated to live in the ozone layer, but comes down to the Earth surface in times of crisis and is known to roost at the [[Sky Pillar]].
* {{p|Hoopa}} is known to be capable of opening portals to other worlds and dimensions, but no evidence exists to suggest whether it originated in one.
* Several Pokémon species can be captured in the [[Ultra Space Wilds]] that are known to also be native to the Pokémon world, among them {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Drapion}}, and several [[Legendary Pokémon]]. It is unknown whether these Pokémon are native to [[Ultra Space]] in addition to the Pokémon world, were brought there through [[Ultra Wormhole]]s, or are present for some other reason. Some evidence may suggest that Ultra Space is an alternate version of the Pokémon world itself.
{{endspoilers}}

==In the anime==
In contrast to the games, the appearance of other dimensions and the topic of alien Pokémon are somewhat common in the Pokémon [[anime]].

===Extraterrestrial Pokémon===
====Clefairy====
In the anime, Clefairy have been explicitly stated to have come from the moon and are seen piloting alien spacecraft at various recurring instances. In ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', a group of Clefairy gather [[Moon Stone]]s together to form a "circuit", which they dance around in an attempt to ascend to the stars. These events are repeated in ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]''.

A group of Clefairy with a similar goal appear in ''[[EP062|Clefairy Tales]]'', where they begin stealing things from a town near to the place that their UFO touched down. It is later revealed that these stolen items are being used to build a rocket ship. This same group returns in ''[[EP246|Wish Upon a Star Shape]]'', where they demonstrate mechanical prowess by disassembling machinery and reassembling it into a functional spaceship.

Clefairy are also shown to be [[EP062|capable of constructing]] [[EP246|aircraft and runways]], which could offer another explanation for their origins.

====Deoxys====
[[File:Deoxys meteor.png|thumb|200px|Deoxys came to the planet in a meteor.]]

In ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', {{OBP|Deoxys|M07}} arrived on earth on a meteorite and subsequently clashed with {{OBP|Rayquaza|M07}}. Deoxys is shown to have the ability to change between its four [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Deoxys|Formes]] at will. Its Attack Forme is adapted for combat against Pokémon native to earth, its Defense Forme is useful to protect itself from attack from Pokémon native to earth, and its Speed Forme is useful for fleeing and striking quickly. These Formes in combination with its ability to quickly and completely regenerate lost body parts allow it to survive in an alien world. It is generally asocial and hostile, only seeking out other Deoxys, whom it is shown communicate with by creating auroras. The crystalline gem at its core is shown to be vital to its survival in the movie, but as long as the core remains it will gradually regenerate, no matter how long that may take.

====Jirachi====
In ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', {{p|Jirachi}} descended from outer space in the [[Millennium Comet]], which is visible from the Pokémon world for only seven nights once every thousand years. The origin of this comet, or Jirachi itself, is unknown, and as such, it is not known if there are any other Jirachi left in existence. It is also based on the concept of wishing upon a star.

====Elgyem and Beheeyem====
An Elgyem appears in ''[[BW030|A UFO for Elgyem!]]'' under the ownership of [[Professor Icarus]], who is working with it to build a functional spacecraft.
In ''[[BW133|Capacia Island UFO!]]'', a group of Beheeyem are shown directly piloting and crash landing an alien spacecraft, powered by an energy source that strikingly resembles an [[Amulet Coin]]. After their crash, they are shown controlling the minds of the local townsfolk until their power source is returned, at which point they fly away and release the town’s people from their mental hold.

===Extradimensional Pokémon===
====Unown====
[[File:Unown dimension M10.png|thumb||200px|Unown in the Unown Dimension]]
{{p|Unown}} originate from the [[Unown Dimension]]. People, such as [[Spencer Hale]] in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'', have been known to be transported to their dimension and Unown have been known to come from the Unown Dimension into other dimensions, such as an Unown in ''[[EP263|Address Unown!]]''. Several Unown also are found in the [[Ruins of Alph]], [[Tanoby Chambers]] and [[Solaceon Ruins]] but it is unknown how they came to be here, whether they came here from another dimension or originated here.

====[[Lake guardians]]====
The anime shows that {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}} reside in pocket dimensions whose entrances are within their respective lakes.

====[[Creation trio]]====
{{p|Dialga}} lives in its own dimension, from which it governs [[time|temporal]] matters. {{p|Palkia}} lives in its own dimension, from which it governs spatial matters. These dimensions collided in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', and, each thinking that the other was trespassing, Sinnoh's Legendary Pokémon began to clash.
{{p|Giratina}} lives in a parallel dimension of {{wp|antimatter}}. In the anime, this dimension is the [[Reverse World]], which appears quite literally as an inverse of the regular Pokémon world. Here, the normal rules of time and space do not apply. When it is not in this dimension, Giratina assumes its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Giratina|Altered Forme}}. Because the other dimensions are inextricably linked with Giratina's dimension, Giratina will viciously defend its world if events in other dimensions threaten it.

====Arceus====
{{p|Arceus}} lives in a high dimension, from which it stands guard over the entire [[Pokémon world]], and will wake from its slumber to save it from annihilation.

====Ultra Beasts====
The Ultra Beasts have made an appearance in the anime, most significantly when Lusamine is abducted by a {{p|Nihilego}} and fuses with it in a similar manner to her appearance in the Sun and Moon games. Additional Ultra Beasts, such as {{p|Buzzwole}}, have also made minor, cameo appearances.
==In the manga==
The manga chapter ''[[ET10|Clefairy in Space]]'' from [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] revolves around the idea that Clefairy are extraterrestrials.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], a dimension called "the Crack of Time" is introduced where [[Celebi]] is active.

==Trivia==
* Of the 22 total extraterrestrial Pokémon listed, 12 are Psychic-type Pokémon (13 if Arceus is holding the [[Mind Plate]]).
* Deoxys, Staryu, and Starmie share several noticeable similarities. All have a red core at their center that is vital to their survival. All are Psychic-type Pokémon whose crystalline core is said to be center to their psychic powers. Additionally, all three display the remarkable ability to completely regenerate lost limbs.
* {{p|Haunter}}'s Red, Blue, and Leaf Green Pokédex entires state that because of its ability to slip through block walls, people believe it to be from another dimension.
** Mega {{p|Gengar}}'s unblinking third eye allows it to see into other dimensions.<ref>[http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Mega Gengar Pokémon X and Y minisite]</ref>
* {{p|Porygon-Z}}'s Pokédex entries report that its programming was modified to enable it to work in alien dimensions, but that an unplanned error corrupted Porygon-Z and prevented it from fulfilling this purpose.
* Mew is said to be the ancestor of all Pokémon. Due to this, and the number of extraterrestrial Pokémon that have been discovered, it is possible that Mew inhabit other areas of the universe, and it is equally possible that they originate from a world other than [[Pokémon world|Earth]]. Mew have been shown to be capable of flying through the vacuum of space, as displayed in the original [[Pokémon Theme]].
* {{p|Jigglypuff}} gave signals on [[Oswald]]'s device in [[EP062|''Clefairy Tales'']]. Additionally, the fact that {{p|Jigglypuff}} is commonly found living near impact sites, and that it evolves from a Moon Stone, could be seen as evidence that Jigglypuff and its evolutionary relatives, {{p|Igglybuff}} and {{p|Wigglytuff}}, are extraterrestrial in origin.
** [[Misty's Togepi]] also made [[Oswald]]'s device ring when it was pointed at it.
* Although {{p|Magnezone}} is not a creature from outer space, it was described as being often mistaken for a UFO.

'''Soft-Boiled''' (Japanese: '''タマゴうみ''' ''Egg Lay''), formatted as '''Softboiled''' prior to [[Pokémon X and Y]], is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[TM41]] in Generation I. It is the [[signature move]] of {{p|Chansey}} and {{p|Blissey}}.

==Effect==
{{incomplete|needs=Needs clarification on whether failure glitch occurs in the Japanese {{jap|Pokémon Stadium}}}}
===In battle===
====Generation I====
Softboiled restores up to 50% of the user's maximum {{stat|HP}}. It will fail if the user's current HP is already equal to its maximum HP.

In the [[Generation I]] handheld games, Softboiled will also fail if the difference between the user's maximum HP and current HP is 255 {{wp|modulo}} 256 (i.e. if this difference is 255 or 511). This does not occur in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}.

====Generation II onward====
Soft-Boiled no longer fails if the difference between the user's maximum HP and current HP is 255 modulo 256.

Soft-Boiled can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], causing {{m|Egg Bomb}} to give an extra four appeal points if used in the next turn.

If powered up by a [[Normalium Z]] into Z-Soft-Boiled, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.

===Outside of battle===
Prior to [[Generation VII]], Soft-Boiled can also be used outside of battle to transfer some of the user's HP to another party Pokémon. Each use will transfer 20% of the user's HP, up to the target's maximum HP. The move will not work if the user has 20% or less HP left.

==Trivia==
* Although the man who gives [[TM41]] (Softboiled) in Generation I says that only Chansey can learn the move, it can also be taught to Mew.
* Although Softboiled is available in {{game|Emerald}} as a Move Tutor move, no Pokémon naturally [[availability|available]] in the game can learn the move; all Pokémon capable of using the Move Tutor must be traded into the game from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} or caught using an [[Old Sea Map|event item]].
* Male Pokémon can use this move despite its Japanese name being タマゴうみ ''Tamago Umi'', which can be translated to "egg lay".
* In [[Generation III]], the status screen erroneously states that the move has 100% accuracy, even though it targets the user (thus it ignores accuracy and evasion checks).
* In Generation III, if this move is used immediately after {{m|Brick Break}}, the egg that appears will be transparent rather than solid. This is only a graphical error and doesn't affect the execution of the move.
* In the 1.0 release of the English versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, whenever the player uses Softboiled on a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that is [[Fainting|fainted]] or at full health, the game erroneously states "This '''item''' can't be used on that POKéMON." In the 1.1 release, the word "item" was removed and the message correctly says "This can't be used on that POKéMON." This error does not exist in the Japanese versions, meaning it was a localization oversight.

Extraterrestrial Pokémon

2018-02-04T22:44:04Z

Arisboch: /* Trivia */

{{unknown name}}
[[File:ORAS Mega Rayquaza Deoxys artwork.png|thumb|400px|During the [[Delta Episode]], players with {{p|Rayquaza}} battle a {{p|Deoxys}} that originates from outer space.]]
'''Extraterrestrial Pokémon''' is a fan term commonly used to refer to any Pokémon believed to have originated from somewhere outside the [[Pokémon world]]. The term encompasses both Pokémon believed to have arrived from outer space and those that inhabit other [[dimensions]] ("extradimensional" Pokémon). Evidence for extraterrestrial Pokémon can often be found in [[Pokédex]] entries, although these are not the only source of this information.

These Pokémon have apparently adapted to the environment of the Pokémon world. Many of these Pokémon can breed with terrestrial Pokémon and evolve in the same ways. Additionally, [[items]] that work on terrestrial Pokémon, such as [[Poké Balls]] and Potions, work just as well on extraterrestrial Pokémon.

There are many myths involving Pokémon originating outside of the Pokémon world because of their resemblance and relation to extraterrestrial bodies, and in some canons there are characters who speculate non-earthly origins for ''all'' Pokémon.

==In the games==
In the games, the majority of the information on extraterrestrial Pokémon comes from two main sources: their respective [[Pokédex]] entries and the local mythos surrounding the Pokémon.
{{spoilers}}
===Extraterrestrial Pokémon===
====Deoxys====
[[File:Kanto Route 3 meteorites HGSS.png|thumb|200px|The meteorites located at the southwest end of Route 3.]]

All Pokédex entries regarding this Pokémon explain that it was originally an alien virus that fell to earth in a meteor. Exposure to a laser beam mutated the virus's DNA, resulting in the Pokémon {{p|Deoxys}}. Upon further exposure to meteorites, Deoxys's [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Deoxys|Forme]] will change. Deoxys has four formes, adapted for survivability in the wild, and its specialized formes have some of the highest [[base stats]] of any Pokémon. The crystalline organ on its chest appears to be its brain, a departure from typical terrestrial Pokémon biology. Deoxys are described by the Pokédex as highly intelligent, possessing psychokinetic abilities, and are associated with auroras.

A Deoxys is encountered at the conclusion of [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]’s [[Delta Episode]]. After the battle with Zinnia (regardless of its outcome), Zinnia entrusts the player with destroying the approaching meteoroid. The player dons the {{key|VI|Magma Suit}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{key|VI|Aqua Suit}}{{sup/6|AS}} and rides Rayquaza out to space to destroy the meteoroid. When Rayquaza shatters the meteoroid, however, a triangular object emerges from the middle of the debris. After a moment of darting around, tendrils snake out of the object before it bursts apart to reveal the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Deoxys}}, who immediately engages the player in a battle.

====Cleffa evolutionary family====
[[File:Clefairy Dancing HGSS.png|thumb|Clefairy dance in a ring at [[Mt. Moon Square]] every Monday night.]]

The star-shaped {{p|Cleffa}} are said to have come to earth on meteorites. Wherever a meteorite lands, there is always a Cleffa near. In HGSS, Cleffa and their evolved forms, {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}, dance in a ring on Monday nights, nights with a full moon, and on nights when meteor showers occur. Clefairy and its evolutionary relatives tend to make their habitat at impact sites, and Clefairy evolves into Clefable from a Moon Stone, further evidence that they are extraterrestrial in origin.

====Staryu and Starmie====
{{p|Starmie}} are said to be extraterrestrials because of their star-shape and their seven colored core, which emits radio signals into space at night. {{p|Staryu}} behave similarly, gathering at night and flashing their red cores to communicate with the stars. They are also known to have remarkable regenerative abilities, including {{m|Recover}} and {{a|Natural Cure}}.

====Lunatone and Solrock====
{{p|Lunatone}} and {{p|Solrock}} are said to have come from space and to draw their power from lunar and solar rays, respectively. They are both known as "Meteorite Pokémon," as they were discovered [[Meteor Falls|near a meteorite strike site]] approximately 40 years prior to the events of [[Pokémon X and Y]].

====Elgyem and Beheeyem====
{{p|Elgyem}} and {{p|Beheeyem}} allegedly appeared 50 years prior to the events of {{2v|Black|White}} in the [[Desert Resort]]. It is unknown how or why they appeared, although rumors of its origin are linked to a UFO crash site. This could be explained by their ability to rewrite the memories of the people and Pokémon around them. They survive hostile encounters by using their {{t|psychic}} powers to confuse opponents. In the present day, they are no longer found in the desert, and have relocated to high up in the [[Celestial Tower]] and [[Unova Route 14]], respectively. In {{2v|Black|White|2}}, Beheeyem are no longer found in Unova Route 14. These Pokémon appear to be based on alien conspiracy theories including {{wp|Area 51#UFO and other conspiracy theories concerning Area 51|those surrounding Area 51}} and the {{wp|Roswell UFO incident|Roswell incident}}.

====Kyurem====
[[File:Giant Chasm Crater Forest Summer B2W2.png|thumb|200px|The [[Giant Chasm]] impact crater as it appears in [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Versions]].]]

In an old legend in [[Lacunosa Town]], a large meteor fell from the sky, apparently containing {{p|Kyurem}}. At night, the "monster" would bring cold winds and take people and Pokémon away, to eat them. The town residents then surrounded Lacunosa Town with a wall to keep Kyurem out, and a rule was set on the town that forbade anyone from leaving the town at night, and encouraged them to stay in their homes. Even to this day, the residents remain in their houses at night and the wall is still standing. Kyurem lives in the [[Giant Chasm]], the impact crater of the meteor which supposedly brought Kyurem to [[Unova]]. However, an NPC also states that this myth could possibly be false and {{2v|Black|White|2}} states that Kyurem is actually what was left when the original dragon split into {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.

===Extradimensional Pokémon===
====Gengar====
According to the Pokédex, {{me|Gengar}} sinks into another dimension while waiting for prey.

====Bronzong====
It's described as summoning rain from different dimension.

====Arceus and the [[Creation trio]]====
The '''creation trio''' is a fan term used to refer to three powerful Legendary Pokémon of the [[Sinnoh]] region: {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}. Each of the members of this trio, including its [[trio master]] {{p|Arceus}}, have control over their own [[dimensions]]. Dialga controls time and Palkia controls space, two aspects of the [[wp:spacetime|four-dimensional universe]] that the [[Pokémon world]], like our own, is a part of. Giratina has control over antimatter and the [[Distortion World]], where time does not flow and space is unstable, while Arceus has its own world where the [[Hall of Origin]] is located.
[[File:Distortion World physics.png|thumb|left|The Distortion World as seen in [[Pokémon Platinum Version]]]]

In {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Cyrus]] summons Dialga from its dimension to the [[Spear Pillar]] using the [[Red Chain]]. In {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Cyrus]] summons Palkia from its dimension to the [[Spear Pillar]] using the [[Red Chain]]. In Platinum, a portal to Dialga's dimension appears at the Spear Pillar if the {{player}} has the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Adamant Orb}}. Likewise, a portal to Palkia's dimension appears in Platinum at the Spear Pillar if the {{player}} has the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Lustrous Orb}}. Notably, these portals will never appear at the same time.

{{p|Giratina}} lives in a parallel dimension of {{wp|antimatter}} known as the [[Distortion World]]. Here, the normal rules of time and space do not apply. When it is not in this dimension, Giratina assumes its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Giratina|Altered Forme}}, however, holding the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Griseous Orb}} reverts it to its Origin Forme. Because the other dimensions are inextricably linked with Giratina's dimension, Giratina will viciously defend its world if events in other dimensions threaten it.

{{p|Arceus}} lives in a high dimension, from which it stands guard over the entire [[Pokémon world]]. In the games, this dimension is the [[Hall of Origin]]. The only way to get there is by blowing on the [[Azure Flute]], which was never legitimately released, at the [[Spear Pillar]], the highest point in [[Sinnoh]].

====Dusknoir====
The antenna on Dusknoir's head allows it to receive transmissions from the [[Ghost World|spirit world]], which tell it to bring people there. The band on its body can open, similar to a mouth. It uses this ability to take spirits into its body and carry them home or as it travels to unknown places.
Dusknoir [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dusclops}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Reaper Cloth]]. The Japanese name of the Reaper Cloth (れいかいのぬの ''Spirit World Cloth'') indicates that it comes from the Ghost World.

====[[Ultra Beast]]s====
The Ultra Beasts are native to the dimension known as [[Ultra Space]], which on rare occasions becomes connected with the [[Pokémon world]] via spacetime anomalies called [[Ultra Wormhole]]s. While the Ultra Beasts normally stay within Ultra Space, they can on occasion become stranded outside of it due to the formation of an Ultra Wormhole that leaves them unable to return. This can prove to be dangerous for anyone nearby, as the disorientation involved can often cause them to become violent.

===={{p|Cosmog}} and its evolutions====
Cosmog, along with its evolutions {{p|Cosmoem}}, {{p|Solgaleo}}, and {{p|Lunala}}, are also native to Ultra Space, as evident by their ability to create and manipulate Ultra Wormholes.

===={{p|Necrozma}}====
Necrozma originates from Ultra Space. It can open [[Ultra Wormhole]]s and travel through them back and forth.

===Additional cases===
The following Pokémon are borderline or unclear cases that may or may not fit into either the extraterrestrial or extradimensional categories.

* {{p|Minior}} is said to be formed in the ozone layer, therefore originating from a habitat close to space.
* {{p|Rayquaza}} is also stated to live in the ozone layer, but descends to the Earth surface in times of crisis and is known to roost at the [[Sky Pillar]].
* {{p|Hoopa}} is known to be capable of opening portals to other worlds and dimensions, but no evidence exists to suggest whether it originated in one.
* Several Pokémon species can be captured in the [[Ultra Space Wilds]] that are known to also be native to the Pokémon world, among them {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Drapion}}, and several [[Legendary Pokémon]]. It is unknown whether these Pokémon are native to [[Ultra Space]] in addition to the Pokémon world, were brought there through [[Ultra Wormhole]]s, or are present for some other reason. Some evidence may suggest that Ultra Space is an alternate version of the Pokémon world itself.
{{endspoilers}}

==In the anime==
In contrast to the games, the appearance of other dimensions and the topic of alien Pokémon are somewhat common in the Pokémon [[anime]].

===Extraterrestrial Pokémon===
====Clefairy====
In the anime, Clefairy have been explicitly stated to have come from the moon and are seen piloting alien spacecraft at various recurring instances. In ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', a group of Clefairy gather [[Moon Stone]]s together to form a "circuit", which they dance around in an attempt to ascend to the stars. These events are repeated in ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]''.

A group of Clefairy with a similar goal appear in ''[[EP062|Clefairy Tales]]'', where they begin stealing things from a town near to the place that their UFO touched down. It is later revealed that these stolen items are being used to build a rocket ship. This same group returns in ''[[EP246|Wish Upon a Star Shape]]'', where they demonstrate mechanical prowess by disassembling machinery and reassembling it into a functional spaceship.

Clefairy are also shown to be [[EP062|capable of constructing]] [[EP246|aircraft and runways]], which could offer another explanation for their origins.

====Deoxys====
[[File:Deoxys meteor.png|thumb|200px|Deoxys came to the planet in a meteor.]]

In ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', {{OBP|Deoxys|M07}} arrived on earth on a meteorite and subsequently clashed with {{OBP|Rayquaza|M07}}. Deoxys is shown to have the ability to change between its four [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Deoxys|Formes]] at will. Its Attack Forme is adapted for combat against Pokémon native to earth, its Defense Forme is useful to protect itself from attack from Pokémon native to earth, and its Speed Forme is useful for fleeing and striking quickly. These Formes in combination with its ability to quickly and completely regenerate lost body parts allow it to survive in an alien world. It is generally asocial and hostile, only seeking out other Deoxys, whom it is shown communicate with by creating auroras. The crystalline gem at its core is shown to be vital to its survival in the movie, but as long as the core remains it will gradually regenerate, no matter how long that may take.

====Jirachi====
In ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', {{p|Jirachi}} descended from outer space in the [[Millennium Comet]], which is visible from the Pokémon world for only seven nights once every thousand years. The origin of this comet, or Jirachi itself, is unknown, and as such, it is not known if there are any other Jirachi left in existence. It is also based on the concept of wishing upon a star.

====Elgyem and Beheeyem====
An Elgyem appears in ''[[BW030|A UFO for Elgyem!]]'' under the ownership of [[Professor Icarus]], who is working with it to build a functional spacecraft.
In ''[[BW133|Capacia Island UFO!]]'', a group of Beheeyem are shown directly piloting and crash landing an alien spacecraft, powered by an energy source that strikingly resembles an [[Amulet Coin]]. After their crash, they are shown controlling the minds of the local townsfolk until their power source is returned, at which point they fly away and release the town’s people from their mental hold.

===Extradimensional Pokémon===
====Unown====
[[File:Unown dimension M10.png|thumb||200px|Unown in the Unown Dimension]]
{{p|Unown}} originate from the [[Unown Dimension]]. People, such as [[Spencer Hale]] in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'', have been known to be transported to their dimension and Unown have been known to come from the Unown Dimension into other dimensions, such as an Unown in ''[[EP263|Address Unown!]]''. Several Unown also are found in the [[Ruins of Alph]], [[Tanoby Chambers]] and [[Solaceon Ruins]] but it is unknown how they came to be here, whether they came here from another dimension or originated here.

====[[Lake guardians]]====
The anime shows that {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}} reside in pocket dimensions whose entrances are within their respective lakes.

====[[Creation trio]]====
{{p|Dialga}} lives in its own dimension, from which it governs [[time|temporal]] matters. {{p|Palkia}} lives in its own dimension, from which it governs spatial matters. These dimensions collided in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', and, each thinking that the other was trespassing, Sinnoh's Legendary Pokémon began to clash.
{{p|Giratina}} lives in a parallel dimension of {{wp|antimatter}}. In the anime, this dimension is the [[Reverse World]], which appears quite literally as an inverse of the regular Pokémon world. Here, the normal rules of time and space do not apply. When it is not in this dimension, Giratina assumes its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Giratina|Altered Forme}}. Because the other dimensions are inextricably linked with Giratina's dimension, Giratina will viciously defend its world if events in other dimensions threaten it.

====Arceus====
{{p|Arceus}} lives in a high dimension, from which it stands guard over the entire [[Pokémon world]], and will wake from its slumber to save it from annihilation.

====Ultra Beasts====
The Ultra Beasts have made an appearance in the anime, most significantly when Lusamine is abducted by a {{p|Nihilego}} and fuses with it in a similar manner to her appearance in the Sun and Moon games. Additional Ultra Beasts, such as {{p|Buzzwole}}, have also made minor, cameo appearances.
==In the manga==
The manga chapter ''[[ET10|Clefairy in Space]]'' from [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] revolves around the idea that Clefairy are extraterrestrials.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], a dimension is called "the Crack of Time" introduced. [[Celebi]] is active here.

==Trivia==
* Of the 22 total extraterrestrial Pokémon listed, 12 are Psychic-type Pokémon (13 if Arceus is holding the [[Mind Plate]]).
* Deoxys, Staryu, and Starmie share several noticeable similarities. All have a red core at their center that is vital to their survival. All are Psychic-type Pokémon whose crystalline core is said to be center to their psychic powers. Additionally, all three display the remarkable ability to completely regenerate lost limbs.
* {{p|Haunter}}'s Red, Blue, and Leaf Green Pokédex entires state that because of its ability to slip through block walls, people believe it to be from another dimension.
** Mega {{p|Gengar}}'s unblinking third eye allows it to see into other dimensions.<ref>[http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Mega Gengar Pokémon X and Y minisite]</ref>
* {{p|Porygon-Z}}'s Pokédex entries report that its programming was modified to enable it to work in alien dimensions, but that an unplanned error corrupted Porygon-Z and prevented it from fulfilling this purpose.
* Mew is said to be the ancestor of all Pokémon. Due to this, and the number of extraterrestrial Pokémon that have been discovered, it is possible that Mew inhabits other areas of the universe, and it is equally possible that they originate from a world other than [[Pokémon world|Earth]]. Mew has been shown to be capable of flying through the vacuum of space in the original [[Pokémon Theme]].
* {{p|Jigglypuff}} gave signals on [[Oswald]]'s device in [[EP062|''Clefairy Tales'']]. Additionally, the fact that {{p|Jigglypuff}} is commonly found living near impact sites, and that it evolves from a Moon Stone, could be seen as evidence that Jigglypuff and its evolutionary relatives, {{p|Igglybuff}} and {{p|Wigglytuff}}, are extraterrestrial in origin.
** [[Misty's Togepi]] also made [[Oswald]]'s device ring when it was pointed at it.
* Although {{p|Magnezone}} is not a creature from outer space, it was described as being often mistaken for a UFO.

{{unknown name}}
[[File:ORAS Mega Rayquaza Deoxys artwork.png|thumb|400px|During the [[Delta Episode]], players with {{p|Rayquaza}} battle a {{p|Deoxys}} that originates from outer space.]]
'''Extraterrestrial Pokémon''' is a fan term commonly used to refer to any Pokémon believed to have originated from somewhere outside the [[Pokémon world]]. The term encompasses both Pokémon believed to have arrived from outer space and those that inhabit other [[dimensions]] ("extradimensional" Pokémon).

In the games, the majority of the information on extraterrestrial Pokémon comes from two main sources: their respective [[Pokédex]] entries and the local mythos surrounding the Pokémon.
{{spoilers}}
===Extraterrestrial Pokémon===
====Deoxys====
[[File:Kanto Route 3 meteorites HGSS.png|thumb|200px|The meteorites located at the southwest end of Route 3.]]

All Pokédex entries regarding this Pokémon explain that it was originally an alien virus that fell to earth in a meteor. Exposure to a laser beam mutated the virus's DNA, resulting in the Pokémon {{p|Deoxys}}. Upon further exposure to meteorites, Deoxys's [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Deoxys|Forme]] will change. Deoxys has four formes, adapted for survivability in the wild, and its specialized formes have some of the highest [[base stats]] of any Pokémon. The crystalline organ on its chest appears to be its brain, a departure from typical terrestrial Pokémon biology. Deoxys are described by the Pokédex as highly intelligent, possessing psychokinetic abilities, and are associated with auroras.

A Deoxys is encountered at the conclusion of [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]’s [[Delta Episode]]. After the battle with Zinnia (regardless of its outcome), Zinnia entrusts the player with destroying the approaching meteoroid. The player dons the {{key|VI|Magma Suit}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{key|VI|Aqua Suit}}{{sup/6|AS}} and rides Rayquaza out to space to destroy the meteoroid.

After a moment of darting around, tendrils snake out of the object before it bursts apart to reveal the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Deoxys}}, who immediately engages the player in a battle.

====Cleffa evolutionary family====
[[File:Clefairy Dancing HGSS.png|thumb|Clefairy dance in a ring at [[Mt. Moon Square]] every Monday night.]]

The star-shaped {{p|Cleffa}} are said to have come to earth on meteorites. Wherever a meteorite lands, there is always a Cleffa near. In HGSS, Cleffa and their evolved forms, {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}, dance in a ring on Monday nights, nights with a full moon, and on nights when meteor showers occur. Clefairy and its evolutionary relatives tend to make their habitat at impact sites, and Clefairy evolves into Clefable from a Moon Stone, further evidence that they are extraterrestrial in origin.

====Staryu and Starmie====
{{p|Starmie}} are said to be extraterrestrials because of their star-shape and their seven colored core, which emits radio signals into space at night. {{p|Staryu}} behave similarly, gathering at night and flashing their red cores to communicate with the stars. They are also known to have remarkable regenerative abilities, including {{m|Recover}} and {{a|Natural Cure}}.

====Lunatone and Solrock====
{{p|Lunatone}} and {{p|Solrock}} are said to have come from space and to draw their power from lunar and solar rays, respectively. They are both known as "Meteorite Pokémon," as they were discovered [[Meteor Falls|near a meteorite strike site]] approximately 40 years prior to the events of [[Pokémon X and Y]].

====Elgyem and Beheeyem====
{{p|Elgyem}} and {{p|Beheeyem}} allegedly appeared 50 years prior to the events of {{2v|Black|White}} in the [[Desert Resort]]. It is unknown how or why they appeared, although rumors of its origin are linked to a UFO crash site. This could be explained by their ability to rewrite the memories of the people and Pokémon around them. They survive hostile encounters by using their {{t|psychic}} powers to confuse opponents. In the present day, they are no longer found in the desert, and have relocated to high up in the [[Celestial Tower]] and [[Unova Route 14]], respectively. In {{2v|Black|White|2}}, Beheeyem are no longer found in Unova Route 14. These Pokémon appear to be based on alien conspiracy theories including {{wp|Area 51#UFO and other conspiracy theories concerning Area 51|those surrounding Area 51}} and the {{wp|Roswell UFO incident|Roswell incident}}.

====Kyurem====
[[File:Giant Chasm Crater Forest Summer B2W2.png|thumb|200px|The [[Giant Chasm]] impact crater as it appears in [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Versions]].]]

In an old legend in [[Lacunosa Town]], a large meteor fell from the sky, apparently containing {{p|Kyurem}}. At night, the "monster" would bring cold winds and take people and Pokémon away, to eat them. The town residents then surrounded Lacunosa Town with a wall to keep Kyurem out, and a rule was set on the town that forbade anyone from leaving the town at night, and encouraged them to stay in their homes. Even to this day, the residents remain in their houses at night and the wall is still standing. Kyurem lives in the [[Giant Chasm]], the impact crater of the meteor which supposedly brought Kyurem to [[Unova]]. However, an NPC also states that this myth could possibly be false and {{2v|Black|White|2}} states that Kyurem is actually what was left when the original dragon split into {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.

===Extradimensional Pokémon===
====Gengar====
According to the Pokédex, {{me|Gengar}} sinks into another dimension while waiting for prey.

====Bronzong====
It's described as summoning rain from different dimension.

====Arceus and the [[Creation trio]]====
The '''creation trio''' is a fan term used to refer to three powerful Legendary Pokémon of the [[Sinnoh]] region: {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}. Each of the members of this trio, including its [[trio master]] {{p|Arceus}}, have control over their own [[dimensions]]. Dialga controls time and Palkia controls space, two aspects of the [[wp:spacetime|four-dimensional universe]] that the [[Pokémon world]], like our own, is a part of. Giratina has control over antimatter and the [[Distortion World]], where time does not flow and space is unstable, while Arceus has its own world where the [[Hall of Origin]] is located.
[[File:Distortion World physics.png|thumb|left|The Distortion World as seen in [[Pokémon Platinum Version]]]]

In {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Cyrus]] summons Dialga from its dimension to the [[Spear Pillar]] using the [[Red Chain]]. In {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Cyrus]] summons Palkia from its dimension to the [[Spear Pillar]] using the [[Red Chain]]. In Platinum, a portal to Dialga's dimension appears at the Spear Pillar if the {{player}} has the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Adamant Orb}}. Likewise, a portal to Palkia's dimension appears in Platinum at the Spear Pillar if the {{player}} has the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Lustrous Orb}}. Notably, these portals will never appear at the same time.

{{p|Giratina}} lives in a parallel dimension of {{wp|antimatter}} known as the [[Distortion World]]. Here, the normal rules of time and space do not apply. When it is not in this dimension, Giratina assumes its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Giratina|Altered Forme}}, however, holding the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Griseous Orb}} reverts it to its Origin Forme. Because the other dimensions are inextricably linked with Giratina's dimension, Giratina will viciously defend its world if events in other dimensions threaten it.

{{p|Arceus}} lives in a high dimension, from which it stands guard over the entire [[Pokémon world]]. In the games, this dimension is the [[Hall of Origin]]. The only way to get there is by blowing on the [[Azure Flute]], which was never legitimately released, at the [[Spear Pillar]], the highest point in [[Sinnoh]].

====Dusknoir====
The antenna on Dusknoir's head allows it to receive transmissions from the [[Ghost World|spirit world]], which tell it to bring people there. The band on its body can open, similar to a mouth. It uses this ability to take spirits into its body and carry them home or as it travels to unknown places.
Dusknoir [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dusclops}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Reaper Cloth]]. The Japanese name of the Reaper Cloth (れいかいのぬの ''Spirit World Cloth'') indicates that it comes from the Ghost World.

====[[Ultra Beast]]s====
The Ultra Beasts are native to the dimension known as [[Ultra Space]], which on rare occasions becomes connected with the [[Pokémon world]] via spacetime anomalies called [[Ultra Wormhole]]s. While the Ultra Beasts normally stay within Ultra Space, they can on occasion become stranded outside of it due to the formation of an Ultra Wormhole that leaves them unable to return. This can prove to be dangerous for anyone nearby, as the disorientation involved can often cause them to become violent.

===={{p|Cosmog}} and its evolutions====
Cosmog, along with its evolutions {{p|Cosmoem}}, {{p|Solgaleo}}, and {{p|Lunala}}, are also native to Ultra Space, as evident by their ability to create and manipulate Ultra Wormholes.

===={{p|Necrozma}}====
Necrozma originates from Ultra Space. It can open [[Ultra Wormhole]]s and travel through them back and forth.

===Additional cases===
The following Pokémon are borderline or unclear cases that may or may not fit into either the extraterrestrial or extradimensional categories.

* {{p|Minior}} is said to be formed in the ozone layer, therefore originating from a habitat close to space.
* {{p|Rayquaza}} is also stated to live in the ozone layer, but descends to the Earth surface in times of crisis and is known to roost at the [[Sky Pillar]].
* {{p|Hoopa}} is known to be capable of opening portals to other worlds and dimensions, but no evidence exists to suggest whether it originated in one.
* Several Pokémon species can be captured in the [[Ultra Space Wilds]] that are known to also be native to the Pokémon world, among them {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Drapion}}, and several [[Legendary Pokémon]]. It is unknown whether these Pokémon are native to [[Ultra Space]] in addition to the Pokémon world, were brought there through [[Ultra Wormhole]]s, or are present for some other reason. Some evidence may suggest that Ultra Space is an alternate version of the Pokémon world itself.
{{endspoilers}}

==In the anime==
In contrast to the games, the appearance of other dimensions and the topic of alien Pokémon are somewhat common in the Pokémon [[anime]].

===Extraterrestrial Pokémon===
====Clefairy====
In the anime, Clefairy have been explicitly stated to have come from the moon and are seen piloting alien spacecraft at various recurring instances. In ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', a group of Clefairy gather [[Moon Stone]]s together to form a "circuit", which they dance around in an attempt to ascend to the stars. These events are repeated in ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]''.

A group of Clefairy with a similar goal appear in ''[[EP062|Clefairy Tales]]'', where they begin stealing things from a town near to the place that their UFO touched down. It is later revealed that these stolen items are being used to build a rocket ship. This same group returns in ''[[EP246|Wish Upon a Star Shape]]'', where they demonstrate mechanical prowess by disassembling machinery and reassembling it into a functional spaceship.

Clefairy are also shown to be [[EP062|capable of constructing]] [[EP246|aircraft and runways]], which could offer another explanation for their origins.

====Deoxys====
[[File:Deoxys meteor.png|thumb|200px|Deoxys came to the planet in a meteor.]]

In ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', {{OBP|Deoxys|M07}} arrived on earth on a meteorite and subsequently clashed with {{OBP|Rayquaza|M07}}. Deoxys is shown to have the ability to change between its four [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Deoxys|Formes]] at will. Its Attack Forme is adapted for combat against Pokémon native to earth, its Defense Forme is useful to protect itself from attack from Pokémon native to earth, and its Speed Forme is useful for fleeing and striking quickly. These Formes in combination with its ability to quickly and completely regenerate lost body parts allow it to survive in an alien world. It is generally asocial and hostile, only seeking out other Deoxys, whom it is shown communicate with by creating auroras. The crystalline gem at its core is shown to be vital to its survival in the movie, but as long as the core remains it will gradually regenerate, no matter how long that may take.

====Jirachi====
In ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', {{p|Jirachi}} descended from outer space in the [[Millennium Comet]], which is visible from the Pokémon world for only seven nights once every thousand years. The origin of this comet, or Jirachi itself, is unknown, and as such, it is not known if there are any other Jirachi left in existence. It is also based on the concept of wishing upon a star.

====Elgyem and Beheeyem====
An Elgyem appears in ''[[BW030|A UFO for Elgyem!]]'' under the ownership of [[Professor Icarus]], who is working with it to build a functional spacecraft.
In ''[[BW133|Capacia Island UFO!]]'', a group of Beheeyem are shown directly piloting and crash landing an alien spacecraft, powered by an energy source that strikingly resembles an [[Amulet Coin]]. After their crash, they are shown controlling the minds of the local townsfolk until their power source is returned, at which point they fly away and release the town’s people from their mental hold.

===Extradimensional Pokémon===
====Unown====
[[File:Unown dimension M10.png|thumb||200px|Unown in the Unown Dimension]]
{{p|Unown}} originate from the [[Unown Dimension]]. People, such as [[Spencer Hale]] in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'', have been known to be transported to their dimension and Unown have been known to come from the Unown Dimension into other dimensions, such as an Unown in ''[[EP263|Address Unown!]]''. Several Unown also are found in the [[Ruins of Alph]], [[Tanoby Chambers]] and [[Solaceon Ruins]] but it is unknown how they came to be here, whether they came here from another dimension or originated here.

====[[Lake guardians]]====
The anime shows that {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}} reside in pocket dimensions whose entrances are within their respective lakes.

====[[Creation trio]]====
{{p|Dialga}} lives in its own dimension, from which it governs [[time|temporal]] matters. {{p|Palkia}} lives in its own dimension, from which it governs spatial matters. These dimensions collided in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', and, each thinking that the other was trespassing, Sinnoh's Legendary Pokémon began to clash.
{{p|Giratina}} lives in a parallel dimension of {{wp|antimatter}}. In the anime, this dimension is the [[Reverse World]], which appears quite literally as an inverse of the regular Pokémon world. Here, the normal rules of time and space do not apply. When it is not in this dimension, Giratina assumes its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Giratina|Altered Forme}}. Because the other dimensions are inextricably linked with Giratina's dimension, Giratina will viciously defend its world if events in other dimensions threaten it.

====Arceus====
{{p|Arceus}} lives in a high dimension, from which it stands guard over the entire [[Pokémon world]], and will wake from its slumber to save it from annihilation.

====Ultra Beasts====
The Ultra Beasts have made an appearance in the anime, most significantly when Lusamine is abducted by a {{p|Nihilego}} and fuses with it in a similar manner to her appearance in the Sun and Moon games. Additional Ultra Beasts, such as {{p|Buzzwole}}, have also made minor, cameo appearances.
==In the manga==
The manga chapter ''[[ET10|Clefairy in Space]]'' from [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] revolves around the idea that Clefairy are extraterrestrials.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], a dimension is called "the Crack of Time" introduced. [[Celebi]] is active here.

==Trivia==
* Of the 22 total extraterrestrial Pokémon listed, 12 are Psychic-type Pokémon (13 if Arceus is holding the [[Mind Plate]]).
* Deoxys, Staryu, and Starmie share several noticeable similarities. All have a red core at their center that is vital to their survival. All are Psychic-type Pokémon whose crystalline core is said to be center to their psychic powers. Additionally, all three display the remarkable ability to completely regenerate lost limbs.
* {{p|Haunter}}'s Red, Blue, and Leaf Green Pokédex entires state that because of its ability to slip through block walls, people believe it to be from another dimension.
** Mega {{p|Gengar}}'s unblinking third eye allows it to see into other dimensions.<ref>[http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Mega Gengar Pokémon X and Y minisite]</ref>
* {{p|Porygon-Z}}'s Pokédex entries report that its programming was modified to enable it to work in alien dimensions, but that an unplanned error corrupted Porygon-Z and prevented it from fulfilling this purpose.
* Mew is said to be the ancestor of all Pokémon. Due to this, and the number of extraterrestrial Pokémon that have been discovered, it is possible that Mew inhabit other areas of the universe, and it is equally possible that they originate from a world other than [[Pokémon world|Earth]]. Mew have been shown to be capable of flying through the vacuum of space, as displayed in the original [[Pokémon Theme]].
* {{p|Jigglypuff}} gave signals on [[Oswald]]'s device in [[EP062|''Clefairy Tales'']]. Additionally, the fact that {{p|Jigglypuff}} is commonly found living near impact sites, and that it evolves from a Moon Stone, could be seen as evidence that Jigglypuff and its evolutionary relatives, {{p|Igglybuff}} and {{p|Wigglytuff}}, are extraterrestrial in origin.
** [[Misty's Togepi]] also made [[Oswald]]'s device ring when it was pointed at it.
* Although {{p|Magnezone}} is not a creature from outer space, it was described as being often mistaken for a UFO.

Extraterrestrial Pokémon

Arisboch: /* Additional cases */ The ozone layer is part of the atmosphere itself (20-30km), outer space begins at the karman line (100km)

{{unknown name}}
[[File:ORAS Mega Rayquaza Deoxys artwork.png|thumb|400px|During the [[Delta Episode]], players with {{p|Rayquaza}} battle a {{p|Deoxys}} that originates from outer space.]]
'''Extraterrestrial Pokémon''' is a fan term commonly used to refer to any Pokémon believed to have originated from somewhere outside the [[Pokémon world]]. The term encompasses both Pokémon believed to have arrived from outer space and those that inhabit other [[dimensions]] ("extradimensional" Pokémon). Evidence for extraterrestrial Pokémon can often be found in [[Pokédex]] entries, although these are not the only source of this information.

These Pokémon have apparently adapted to the environment of the Pokémon world. Many of these Pokémon can breed with terrestrial Pokémon and evolve in the same ways. Additionally, [[items]] that work on terrestrial Pokémon, such as [[Poké Balls]] and Potions, work just as well on extraterrestrial Pokémon.

There are many myths involving Pokémon originating outside of the Pokémon world because of their resemblance and relation to extraterrestrial bodies, and in some canons there are characters who speculate non-earthly origins for ''all'' Pokémon.

==In the games==
In the games, the majority of the information on extraterrestrial Pokémon comes from two main sources: their respective [[Pokédex]] entries and the local mythos surrounding the Pokémon.
{{spoilers}}
===Extraterrestrial Pokémon===
====Deoxys====
[[File:Kanto Route 3 meteorites HGSS.png|thumb|200px|The meteorites located at the southwest end of Route 3.]]

All Pokédex entries regarding this Pokémon explain that it was originally an alien virus that fell to earth in a meteor. Exposure to a laser beam mutated the virus's DNA, resulting in the Pokémon {{p|Deoxys}}. Upon further exposure to meteorites, Deoxys's [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Deoxys|Forme]] will change. Deoxys has four formes, adapted for survivability in the wild, and its specialized formes have some of the highest [[base stats]] of any Pokémon. The crystalline organ on its chest appears to be its brain, a departure from typical terrestrial Pokémon biology. Deoxys are described by the Pokédex as highly intelligent, possessing psychokinetic abilities, and are associated with auroras.

A Deoxys is encountered at the conclusion of [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]’s [[Delta Episode]]. After the battle with Zinnia (regardless of its outcome), Zinnia entrusts the player with destroying the approaching meteoroid. The player dons the {{key|VI|Magma Suit}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{key|VI|Aqua Suit}}{{sup/6|AS}} and rides Rayquaza out to space to destroy the meteoroid. When Rayquaza shatters the meteoroid, however, a triangular object emerges from the middle of the debris. After a moment of darting around, tendrils snake out of the object before it bursts apart to reveal the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Deoxys}}, who immediately engages the player in a battle.

====Cleffa evolutionary family====
[[File:Clefairy Dancing HGSS.png|thumb|Clefairy dance in a ring at [[Mt. Moon Square]] every Monday night.]]

The star-shaped {{p|Cleffa}} are said to have come to earth on meteorites. Wherever a meteorite lands, there is always a Cleffa near. In HGSS, Cleffa and their evolved forms, {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}, dance in a ring on Monday nights, nights with a full moon, and on nights when meteor showers occur. Clefairy and its evolutionary relatives tend to make their habitat at impact sites, and Clefairy evolves into Clefable from a Moon Stone, further evidence that they are extraterrestrial in origin.

====Staryu and Starmie====
{{p|Starmie}} are said to be extraterrestrials because of their star-shape and their seven colored core, which emits radio signals into space at night. {{p|Staryu}} behave similarly, gathering at night and flashing their red cores to communicate with the stars. They are also known to have remarkable regenerative abilities, including {{m|Recover}} and {{a|Natural Cure}}.

====Lunatone and Solrock====
{{p|Lunatone}} and {{p|Solrock}} are said to have come from space and to draw their power from lunar and solar rays, respectively. They are both known as "Meteorite Pokémon," as they were discovered [[Meteor Falls|near a meteorite strike site]] approximately 40 years prior to the events of [[Pokémon X and Y]].

====Elgyem and Beheeyem====
{{p|Elgyem}} and {{p|Beheeyem}} allegedly appeared 50 years prior to the events of {{2v|Black|White}} in the [[Desert Resort]]. It is unknown how or why they appeared, although rumors of its origin are linked to a UFO crash site. This could be explained by their ability to rewrite the memories of the people and Pokémon around them. They survive hostile encounters by using their {{t|psychic}} powers to confuse opponents. In the present day, they are no longer found in the desert, and have relocated to high up in the [[Celestial Tower]] and [[Unova Route 14]], respectively. In {{2v|Black|White|2}}, Beheeyem are no longer found in Unova Route 14. These Pokémon appear to be based on alien conspiracy theories including {{wp|Area 51#UFO and other conspiracy theories concerning Area 51|those surrounding Area 51}} and the {{wp|Roswell UFO incident|Roswell incident}}.

====Kyurem====
[[File:Giant Chasm Crater Forest Summer B2W2.png|thumb|200px|The [[Giant Chasm]] impact crater as it appears in [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Versions]].]]

In an old legend in [[Lacunosa Town]], a large meteor fell from the sky, apparently containing {{p|Kyurem}}. At night, the "monster" would bring cold winds and take people and Pokémon away, to eat them. The town residents then surrounded Lacunosa Town with a wall to keep Kyurem out, and a rule was set on the town that forbade anyone from leaving the town at night, and encouraged them to stay in their homes. Even to this day, the residents remain in their houses at night and the wall is still standing. Kyurem lives in the [[Giant Chasm]], the impact crater of the meteor which supposedly brought Kyurem to [[Unova]]. However, an NPC also states that this myth could possibly be false and {{2v|Black|White|2}} states that Kyurem is actually what was left when the original dragon split into {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.

===Extradimensional Pokémon===
====Gengar====
According to the Pokédex, {{me|Gengar}} sinks into another dimension while waiting for prey.

====Bronzong====
It's described as summoning rain from different dimension.

====Arceus and the [[Creation trio]]====
The '''creation trio''' is a fan term used to refer to three powerful Legendary Pokémon of the [[Sinnoh]] region: {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}.

Dialga controls time and Palkia controls space, two aspects of the [[wp:spacetime|four-dimensional universe]] that the [[Pokémon world]], like our own, is a part of. Giratina has control over antimatter and the [[Distortion World]], where time does not flow and space is unstable, while Arceus has its own world where the [[Hall of Origin]] is located.

In {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Cyrus]] summons Dialga from its dimension to the [[Spear Pillar]] using the [[Red Chain]]. In {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Cyrus]] summons Palkia from its dimension to the [[Spear Pillar]] using the [[Red Chain]]. In Platinum, a portal to Dialga's dimension appears at the Spear Pillar if the {{player}} has the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Adamant Orb}}. Likewise, a portal to Palkia's dimension appears in Platinum at the Spear Pillar if the {{player}} has the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Lustrous Orb}}. Notably, these portals will never appear at the same time.

{{p|Giratina}} lives in a parallel dimension of {{wp|antimatter}} known as the [[Distortion World]]. Here, the normal rules of time and space do not apply.

The only way to get there is by blowing on the [[Azure Flute]], which was never legitimately released, at the [[Spear Pillar]], the highest point in [[Sinnoh]].

'''Nihilego''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウツロイド''' ''Utsuroido'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

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

It is one of the [[Ultra Beast]]s and is known by code name '''UB-01 Symbiont''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ＵＢ０１　Ｐａｒａｓｉｔｅ|ユービーゼロイチパラサイト}}''').

==Biology==
Nihilego is an Ultra Beast which resembles a jellyfish. It is mostly white and has tentacles shaped like the hair, dress, and legs of a girl. The top of its head is a bell that resembles a sun hat. The bell is transparent save for six pointed stars around the crown, and the brim has a blue edge. The ends of the "hair" fly out, resembling arms, and the outer tentacles of the "dress" have two bubbles inside.

Nihilego is a parasitic organism, capable of injecting a neurotoxin that subtly alters the thoughts and actions of any human or Pokémon that becomes its host. This neurotoxin stimulates intense feelings of excitement while causing a loss of inhibitions, which acts to forcibly bring out any latent potential within the host while wearing away at their minds.

Nihilego's exact levels of intelligence are unknown, but according to the [[Aether Foundation]]'s research it seems to act mainly on a self-preservation instinct. It has been observed behaving like a young girl, though the exact reasons for why it does so are unknown.

As shown with [[Lusamine]], Nihilego is capable of physically merging with a host. In this "merged" state, the bell loses its stars, developing several iridescent spots across its surface; the host's body is visible within the bell, with their legs dangling beneath it. Its eight tentacles become long and flattened in appearance, and what appear to be eyeballs with colored diamond-shaped "pupils" cover their surface, along with smaller multi-colored dots. Four of the tentacles are connected to the "hat" via frilly white structures; these tentacles have four spines protruding from them that can be used similarly to hands. The remaining four tentacles each terminate in a single smaller spine. While this merger can be disrupted, the lingering toxins and the shock of the separation are likely to leave the host in critical condition, both physically and psychologically.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Nihilego.
* Nihilego is the only genderless {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Nihilego may be inspired by a {{wp|jellyfish}}, especially ''{{wp|Aurelia aurita}}''. It may also draw inspiration from {{wp|Myxozoa}}, a class of microscopic Cnidarian parasites, particularly the ''{{wp|Myxobolus cerebralis}}'' that are known to cause the infectious "whirling disease" in various fish species. The disease causes the fish to develop bone and neurological abnormalities that cause them to swim in a corkscrew-like "whirling" motion. Visually, and due to its status as an Ultra Beast, it may derive inspiration from ''{{wp|Phyllorhiza punctata}}'', an invasive species in the waters surrounding Hawaii.

The merged form of Lusamine and Nihilego may be based on ''{{wp|Turritopsis dohrnii}}'', a species of jellyfish that is biologically immortal and can revert to a young, immature state if it is too old or stressed.

====Name origin====
Nihilego may be a combination of ''nihil'' (Latin for indefinite nothing) and ''ego'' (Latin for I), which together roughly translates to "I am nothing" or "I have nothing"; or the part of the psychic apparatus ''{{wp|Id, ego and super-ego|ego}}'', which is the rational decision making part of the psyche) and together with "nihil" refers to how Nihilego has no ego, and only has an id (the survival and instinctual part of the psyche, which obviously relates to Nihilego. The former may reflect Nihilego's victims' lack of will outside their focus on Nihilego, while the latter may represent Nihilego's role in dominating the desires of its victims.

Utsuroido may be a combination of 虚ろ ''utsuro'' (void), ''void'', and ''{{wp|Id, ego and super-ego#Id|id}}''. It also might refer to 鬱 ''utsu'' ({{wp|depression|depression}}), 移ろい ''utsuroi'' (the act of moving from host to host), and android or the suffix ''{{wp|wikt:-oid|-oid}}'' (meaning "of similar form").

'''Klefki''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クレッフィ''' ''Cleffy'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

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

==Biology==
Klefki is a small, grayish-white Pokémon resembling a key ring with four keys on it. It has a spherical head with a white face and a small, pink oval on its forehead. Two black circles and a keyhole form its eyes and mouth. Below its head is its pink, teardrop-shaped body with a white marking in the middle. Extending from the top of its head is an appendage, which resembles an old-fashioned key with two wide, blunt teeth. A thin loop surrounds Klefki, and connects at either side of the "key". Hanging from the loop are various keys that this Pokémon has collected. If Klefki finds a key it likes, it will never release it. To threaten attackers, this Pokémon jingles its key collection. Klefki is the [[Signature move|only Pokémon]] capable of learning {{m|Fairy Lock}}.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
Klefki made its debut appearance in the [[Pikachu short]] ''[[PK26|Pikachu, What's This Key?]]''.

A Klefki debuted in ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]'', under the ownership of [[Monsieur Pierre]]. It usually holds onto {{DL|Pokémon Showcase|Princess Key}}s for Monsieur Pierre before they are awarded.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A wild Klefki debuted in ''[[PAXY18|Gathering Klefki]]'', which [[Grace (Kalos)|Grace]] had befriended. It helped her break free from her cells numerous times, and later helped free the Vaniville Town residents by stealing the keys of a sleeping {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}} and using them to open their cells. This Klefki later acquainted itself with {{adv|X}} and his friends, giving X [[Clemont]]'s glasses and allowing him to deduce the location of Team Flare's base. He eventually set off without informing the others.

Another wild Klefki appeared on {{rt|15|Kalos}} in ''[[PAXY28|Scizor Defends]]''.

==Trivia==
* Klefki is the shortest {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Klefki is based on a keychain, and possibly also the pagan tradition of blaming fairies for the loss of small objects such as shoes and keys. It may also be based on the superstition of carrying an iron charm to ward off fae mischief.

====Name origin====
Klefki is a combination of ''clef'' (French for key) or a corruption of ''kleptomaniac'' (in reference to its habit of collecting keys) and ''key''.

Cleffy is derived from ''clef'' (French for key).

'''Jessie's Mimikyu''' (Japanese: '''ムサシのミミッキュ''' ''Musashi's Mimikkyu'') is the first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that [[Jessie]] {{pkmn2|caught}} in the [[Alola]] [[region]].

==History==
===As a wild Pokémon===
[[File:Jessie Mimikyu uncovered.png|thumb|250px|left|Mimikyu without its rag]]
Mimikyu first appeared in ''[[SM003|Loading the Dex!]]'', where it met {{TRT}} in a forest on [[Melemele Island]]. Thinking it was cute, [[Jessie]] decided to catch Mimikyu. Having no offensive Pokémon yet, she threw {{MTR}} at Mimikyu, but it was immune to Meowth's {{m|Fury Swipes}}. Losing his patience, Meowth tried to remove Mimikyu's rag, but was hexed, and had a near-death experience. Jessie and [[James]] were able to wake Meowth, but were forced to give up and hide when they heard someone approach, who turned out to be {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his classmates}}. Having noticed [[Ash's Pikachu]], Mimikyu became enraged. Ash attempted to catch Mimikyu, but Pikachu's {{m|Iron Tail}} had no effect. Mimikyu then beat up Pikachu using {{m|Play Rough}}. Before the battle between Pikachu and Mimikyu went too far, Team Rocket stepped in. Meowth jumped at Pikachu with Fury Swipes. But when Pikachu tried to counter, Mimikyu intervened. Speaking through Meowth, Mimikyu told Team Rocket that it would help them against Pikachu, expressing a deep-seated hatred for it. Before it could resume fighting Pikachu, however, a {{an|Bewear}} kidnapped Jessie and James. Meowth was able to get Mimikyu to disengage, and they chased {{p|Bewear}}.

===With Jessie===
[[File:Jessie catching Mimikyu.png|thumb|250px|Jessie catching Mimikyu]]
In ''[[SM004|First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!]]'', Team Rocket and Mimikyu were trapped in Bewear's den. Jessie was attempting to catch Mimikyu with a {{Ball|Poké}}, because neither Meowth nor {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} could beat Bewear, but Mimikyu kept swatting it away with its tail stick. At some point, James dropped a {{Ball|Luxury}} he was going to add to his collection. Jessie threw it at Mimikyu and successfully caught it. During their first battle with Pikachu, Mimikyu was called out and used {{m|Shadow Ball}}, but Pikachu used {{m|Electro Ball}} to intercept. Mimikyu used Play Rough on him and was about to use {{m|Shadow Claw}}, but thanks to {{AP|Rowlet}}'s {{m|Leafage}}, Pikachu was saved. Before the fight lasted too long, Bewear returned and carried Team Rocket away.

In [[SM025]], Mimikyu assisted Team Rocket in their quest to obtain a {{DL|Z-Crystal|Darkinium Z}}. It battled a {{pkmn2|Totem}} {{alo|Raticate}}, which protected the Z-Crystal, but was swatted away by Raticate's tail. When Raticate was about to finish Team Rocket and some {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s off, Mimikyu emerged from the bushes and managed to defeat Raticate with a powerful combination of {{m|Wood Hammer}} and a super effective {{m|Play Rough}}.
{{-}}

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Mimikyu defeating Pikachu.png|thumb|right|250px|Mimikyu vs. {{AP|Pikachu}}]]
Unlike most Mimikyu who cosplay as {{p|Pikachu}} so that they can make friends like Pikachu, Jessie's Mimikyu bears an intense grudge towards all Pikachu and only dresses up like one because it is the thing that it despises the most. As a wild Pokémon, Mimikyu agreed to fight alongside {{TRT}} so it could fight [[Ash's Pikachu]]. As seen in ''[[SM006|A Shocking Grocery Run!]]'', it even fights Pikachu when its Trainer told it not to, because of its intense hatred towards him. Every time it sees Pikachu, it always engages in battle, which is helpful for Team Rocket, as it is their lifelong goal to capture Pikachu. However, this has not always worked out in Team Rocket's favor, as shown in ''[[SM013|Racing to a Big Event!]]'', when Mimikyu tried to attack Pikachu during the [[Pokémon Pancake Race]], thus disqualifying itself due to the race's rules, much to Jessie's chagrin. As demonstrated in ''[[SM014|Getting to Know You!]]'', Mimikyu will also often refuse to fight any opponents that are not Pikachu, further displaying its obsession, but it did willingly attack [[DJ Leo#Dugtrio|DJ Leo's Dugtrio]] in [[SM023]] and a Totem Alolan Raticate in [[SM025]].

Mimikyu will not always do as its Trainer commands. It spends a lot of its time outside of its [[Poké Ball]], wandering around and generally doing as it likes, including going for a swim, as seen in ''[[SM012|The Sun, the Scare, the Secret Lair!]]''. As such, it does not appear to have a relationship with Jessie at all, so far.

Mimikyu's speech, according to {{MTR}}, is very intimidating. When Team Rocket first met it, both he and the normally chipper {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} were deeply disturbed by Mimikyu's words. Since its debut, it is often seen scaring Meowth.

==Moves used==

{{anmov/f|fairy}}

==In the TCG==
Jessie's Mimikyu is featured in the TCG as of one Team Rocket's Pokémon. The following is a list of cards featuring Mimikyu.

{{cardlist/entry|cardname=[[Team Rocket's Mimikyu-GX (Ash vs Team Rocket Deck 10)|Team Rocket's Mimikyu]] {{GX}} |type=Psychic|jpset=Ash vs Team Rocket Deck Kit|jpnum=010/026}}
{{cardlist/footer|Psychic}}

==Trivia==
* Mimikyu is the first Pokémon owned by a main character to be caught in a [[Poké Ball]] variant since the [[original series]], and also the first such caught by {{TRT}}.
* Mimikyu is the first [[Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|recurring Pokémon]] to be caught by Team Rocket.

There are three possible connections between the wigs and the hair of other people in the pokemon universe, such as Wally, Maylene, and Tobias. I'm not sure if this is noteworthy, however. [[User:Srushj11|Srushj11]] ([[User talk:Srushj11|talk]]) 05:21, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
:They're all styled differently and are either darker or lighter than the wigs and Tobia's hair is longer than that. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 07:32, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

== Possible first sun and moon series Pokémon death ==

Based on the plot of the episode with Stoutland getting sick then running away, it can make one assume that he left Litten to go die in peace.

==In the anime==
[[File:Moon Stone BW135.png|thumb|200px|A Moon Stone in the anime]]
In ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', a giant Moon Stone appeared deep within [[Mt. Moon]], being worshipped by a group of {{p|Clefairy}} who lived there. It was soon stolen by {{TRT}}, and ultimately ended up being blown up; the shards from the shattered giant Moon Stone rained down on the Clefairy and caused some of them to evolve into {{p|Clefable}}. In this episode, the characters speculated that the Moon Stone was how various Pokémon—Clefairy in particular—arrived in the Pokémon world. Another giant Moon Stone was later seen in the same location in ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]''.

A Moon Stone appeared in a flashback in ''[[AG060|Delcatty Got Your Tongue?]]'', evolving [[Dr. Abby]]'s Skitty into a Delcatty.

''[[BW135|Mystery on a Deserted Island!]]'' featured the Moon Stone along with all of the other Evolution stones available as of [[Generation V]].

A full set of Evolution stones was seen on display in a stone shop in [[Geosenge Town]] in ''[[XY031|The Cave of Trials!]]''.

==In the manga==
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[File:Evolutionary stones EToP.png|thumb|250px|Evolution stones in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
In ''[[ET03|Clefairy Tale]]'', {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}}, {{an|Professor Oak}}, and [[Bill]] witnessed a {{p|Clefairy}} evolution ceremony involving a large Moon Stone.

The focus of the chapter ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That Is the Question!]]'' was Evolution stones, including the Moon Stone.
{{-}}

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Moon Stone Adventures.png|thumb|200px|A Moon Stone in Pokémon Adventures]]
A Moon Stone was first mentioned by {{adv|Professor Oak}} in ''[[PS006|Gyarados Splashes In!]]'' as a rock with a crescent moon-shaped indentation that boosts a Pokémon's power immensely. In [[PS007|the next round]], [[Team Rocket]] searched for one in [[Mt. Moon]]. However, it was {{adv|Red}} who eventually found it. In ''[[PS033|The Winged Legends]]'', Red used his Moon Stone to evolve {{adv|Green}}'s {{p|Clefairy}} into a {{p|Clefable}} in order to fight [[Thu-Fi-Zer]] during the [[Silph Co.]] showdown with Team Rocket.

In ''[[PS194|Guile from Mawile]]'', {{adv|Ruby}}'s [[Kiki|Skitty]] evolved into a {{p|Delcatty}} due to being exposed to one of {{Steven}}'s Moon Stones.

In ''[[PS288|Give It Your Best, Blastoise]]'', during the battle against the {{adv|Deoxys}} Duplicates, {{adv|Green}} evolved her [[Jiggly]] and Nido into {{p|Wigglytuff}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}}, respectively, using two Moon Stones.

In ''[[PS522|Homecoming]]'', it was revealed that {{adv|Black}}'s [[Musha]] evolved into a {{p|Musharna}} using a Moon Stone received from [[Caitlin]].

==In the TCG==
[[File:MoonStoneVendingS1.jpg|thumb|200px|Moon Stone]]
{{main|Moon Stone (Vending S1)}}
The '''Moon Stone''' was released as a {{TCG|Trainer card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the Japanese Original Era with {{TCG|Extended Sheet 1}}. The card was only ever released in Japanese and has never been reprinted. It allows the player to add 1 {{TCG|Colorless}} {{TCG|Evolution card}} from their deck to their hand.

Unrelated to the other TCG card, a Moon Stone appears as a [[held item]] on the {{TCG|Secret Wonders}} {{TCG ID|Secret Wonders|Clefairy|83}} card. It allows Clefairy to evolve on the turn it is played.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* From [[Generation IV]] onward, the {{ball|Moon}} is more likely to catch Pokémon that evolve via Moon Stone. While this was intended to be the case in [[Generation II]], the Poké Ball always has 1× effectiveness due to a bug.

* Through {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|Evolutionary stone bypassing|a glitch}} in the Generation I games, Pokémon that would normally require an [[Evolution stone]] to evolve can be evolved without it, provided that the Pokémon levels up in the battle and the player has sent out a specific Pokémon in the same battle. In the case of the Moon Stone, this Pokémon is {{p|Exeggutor}}.
* The {{wp|Moonstone (gemstone)|Moon Stone}} shares its name with an actual {{wp|gemstone}}.

[[File:FireRed LeafGreen Red.png|thumb|170px|{{ga|Red}}, a human in the [[Pokémon world]]]]
'''Humans''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|人|ひと}}''' ''human'') are a species that exist in the [[Pokémon world]]. They usually live in harmony with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, in a world similar to that of the real world. Humans who own and use Pokémon for a number of different purposes are called [[Pokémon Trainer]]s and are found throughout the [[region]]s of the Pokémon world. The very relationship between humans and Pokémon is what the [[Pokémon|series]] mainly revolves around, featuring them in the vast majority of {{pkmn|games}}, {{pkmn|anime}}, {{pkmn|manga}}, and other media. Throughout the Pokémon series, humans have befriended Pokémon and used their help in tasks like battling, Pokémon Contests, protecting nature, and other vital roles. However, some [[villainous teams]] have used Pokémon as tools for selfishness and evil.

==Overview==
===Characteristics===
Humans in various age groups have been shown in all sources of Pokémon media, while infants have seldom been seen and very rarely appear in the {{pkmn|anime}}. The biological relationship between humans and Pokémon is not explored within the series, but it is known that humans and Pokémon are two different "species" resp. categories of life forms, unlike the real-world common ancestry between humans and animals.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2012/11/23/2389986.aspx?PostPageIndex=2 Pokémon's Burning Questions: interview with Junichi Masuda]</ref> A few humans appear to possess abilities well beyond those that real-world humans are capable of attaining, such as having {{tc|Psychic}} or [[Aura]] powers.

For comical purposes, characters in the Pokémon world are often pictured with a greatly exaggerated ability to withstand physical trauma, (e.g. being {{status|burned}}, {{status|poisoned}}, and falling great distances). The most common occurrence of humans being harmed without injury is the constant electrocution of {{Ash}} and his nemesis, the [[Team Rocket trio]], consisting of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, who are blasted off over the horizon countless times in the early seasons of the {{pkmn|anime}} series. However, Pokémon still present a threat to humans, hence why people need a [[Pokémon Trainer's license|license]] in order to train Pokémon.

===Culture===
The human culture of the Pokémon world, much like the technology, is depicted as revolving around Pokémon. The care and research of Pokémon is shown to be of primary importance, Pokémon feature in many forms of entertainment and media, such as [[Movies in the Pokémon world|movies]] and [[Magazines in the Pokémon world|magazines]], and [[Pokémon battle]]s are an almost universal pastime. Facilities such as [[Pokémon Center]]s, [[Gym]]s, and even entire arenas and stadiums have been built to this end. So important are Pokémon to humans that they were revered or even outright worshiped in certain parts of the world, especially {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], so named because of their prominent roles in myths and legends. However, this fascination with Pokémon is not always benevolent; various individuals and organizations with motives ranging from greed to megalomania have repeatedly tried to exploit Pokémon to further their own agendas, often at the expense of the well being of Pokémon, other people or even the very world und universe itself. This is not always the case as humans are equally capable of good as they are of evil, and are able to see the error of their ways; however, only time will tell if they are also able to learn from their mistakes.

Unlike the real world, humans in the Pokémon world live, for the most part, in an extremely environmentally friendly society. Automobiles are apparently used at a minimum, with walking or riding Pokémon being the preferred [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|methods of transportation]], as demonstrated by the many traveling Trainers who have not been shown to use public transport. However, [[bicycle]]s are common. Many vehicles are seen with virtually no visible emissions such as smoke, suggesting that technology may have allowed for environmentally friendly transportation. Towns and cities are often deeply integrated with the surrounding environment, and often allow surrounding forests to encroach on the city borders.

The population of humans appears to be much lower than that of the real world, as seen by the immense stretches of forest and fields, untouched by human development. There are also many examples of human developments, both ancient and modern, that have been abandoned for one reason or another that have since been reclaimed by nature and Pokémon.

===Technology===
[[File:Dawn Johanna videophone.png|thumb|220px|[[Johanna]] and {{an|Dawn}} in a video call]]
Humans in the [[Pokémon world]] have achieved a level of technology which surpasses that of the real world. For instance, {{wp|teleportation}}, which was made possible through the use of the [[Infinity Energy]] developed by [[Devon Corporation]], is relatively common in the Pokémon world.

Much of the technology appears to be based around the relationship between humans and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}; this technology includes the ubiquitous [[Poké Ball]] as well as data transfer systems designed to store and move [[caught Pokémon]] at their {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s convenience. Humans have also created [[artificial Pokémon]] and many [[item]]s designed to improve a Pokémon's performance in certain activities.

Many devices to allow people to communicate with each other, such as the [[Xtransceiver]] and the [[Holo Caster]], as well as media technologies that reach a large audience via mass communication, such as [[television]] and [[Radio in the Pokémon world|radio]], have also been developed. Additionally, [[PC|personal computers]] are used to aid people in carrying out numerous tasks and {{wp|videophone}}s have been featured in the {{pkmn|anime}} since the [[original series]].

Apparently, this knack for technology dates back to ancient times as there are many examples of lost civilizations that utilized similar technology. It would seem strange that humans remain dominant over Pokémon, as it is mentioned in many occasions that some {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon (e.g. {{p|Alakazam}} and {{p|Slowking}}) appear to be far more intelligent and powerful than humans, however, this has not been explored much aside from [[Pokédex]] descriptions.

==Human organizations in the Pokémon world==
[[File:HeartGold SoulSilver Team Rocket Grunt.png|thumb|220px|[[Team Rocket]] is a primary example of villainous organizations throughout the Pokémon world]]
:''See also: {{cat|Organizations}}''
* [[International Police]]: A law enforcement organization.
* [[Pokémon Association]]: Handles legislation regarding Pokémon.
* [[Ranger Union]]: {{OBP|Pokémon Ranger|Ranger series}}s belong to the Ranger Union, an organization with the intention of fighting people who mistreat Pokémon and threaten peace. They utilize the power of Pokémon to protect the environment, help other people, and help Pokémon. Rangers use [[Capture Styler]]s to bestow feelings of friendship to Pokémon.
* [[Villainous teams]]: Always human outside of the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]] and [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], the villainous teams would threaten the region, and serve as antagonists to be defeated. They can range from mere crime syndicates, such as [[Team Rocket]] in the [[Kanto]] or [[Johto]] regions, to groups with specific, extreme ideological beliefs, such as [[Team Galactic]] in the [[Sinnoh]] region or [[Team Plasma]] in the [[Unova]] region.

===Occupations===
* {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}: Raises and mates Pokémon for genetic improvements such as [[move]]s, [[individual values]], and [[Nature]]s.
* [[Pokémon Connoisseur]]: Specializes in identifying the compatibility between Pokémon and their Trainers.
* [[Pokémon Coordinator]]: Raises Pokémon to compete in [[Pokémon Contest]]s, by feeding them snacks used to enhance their appearances and teaching them moves designed for particular [[appeal]]s.
* [[Gym Leader]]: Hold some title of prestige and worthy of recognition among [[Pokémon Trainer]]s, earning them status in a town or city to challenge Trainers aspiring to challenge the [[Pokémon League]] of their particular region. They also hand out a [[Badge]] to Pokémon Trainers who beat them in battle.
* [[Pokémon Performer]]: Raises Pokémon to compete in [[Pokémon Showcase]]s.
* [[Pokémon Professor]]: Researches certain aspects of Pokémon and the [[Pokémon world]], such as [[evolution]], habitat, etc. They also hand out [[starter Pokémon]] to aspiring [[Pokémon Trainer]]s.
* [[Pokémon Stylist]]: Sketches and designs clothing and accessories for Pokémon.
* [[Pokémon Trainer]]: Raises, travels with, and battles with Pokémon.
* [[Pokémon watcher]]: Studies Pokémon, their habits, behaviors, and interactions.

===Ancient civilizations===
Many references to ancient human civilizations have appeared in many forms of Pokémon related media. It is their existence and their interactions with Pokémon that eventually gave rise to many fables, myths and legends regarding different Pokémon, legendary or not. These ancient people didn't only leave behind stories, but ancient artifacts and even whole ruins which have since been reclaimed by nature and Pokémon. While many civilizations have been referenced, only a few have been explicitly named:

* [[Draconid people]]: A tribe of {{type|Dragon}}-users who resided in [[Meteor Falls]].
* [[Kingdom of the Vale]]: A kingdom which once lived in peace with both Pokémon and nature using the power of the [[Dragon Force]], before it fell to ruin due to war between the [[Heroes of Truth and Ideals|two princes]], which resulted in the Dragon Force going out of control.
* [[People of the Water]]: A race of people who left behind [[Samiya]], a sea temple activated by crystals.
* [[Pokélantis]]: A lost empire in [[Kanto]] that was destroyed by {{p|Ho-Oh}} when its [[King of Pokélantis|king]] wanted to abuse Ho-Oh's power.
* [[Pokémopolis]]: Another ancient civilization in Kanto. Had artifacts that contained [[Giant Pokémon]].

==In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series==
The [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]] takes place in the {{OBP|Pokémon world|Mystery Dungeon}}, inhabited solely by Pokémon. However, in all of the games except for the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)|WiiWare titles]], the {{player}} is a human who has been turned into a Pokémon. In Gates to Infinity and Super Mystery Dungeon, humans are established to be thought not to exist by most Pokémon, existing only in children's stories.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], a [[Team Meanies|greedy Trainer]] [[Ninetales legend|grabbed a tail]] of a {{p|Ninetales}}. The resulting curse was taken by his {{mdc|Gardevoir|rb}}, and the Ninetales prophesied that the human would be reincarnated as a {{p|Gengar|Pokémon}} in the future during a time of natural disasters. The player is summoned to the Pokémon world by that Gardevoir to stop a falling star from destroying the world, losing their memory in the process. After meeting their {{pkmn2|partner}} and calling upon {{DL|List of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team characters|Rayquaza}} to destroy the meteor, the player leaves the Pokémon world, but decides to return when their partner pleads to Gardevoir. {{fa|Decrepit Lab}} is also mentioned to have been built by humans.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], the player and {{mdc|Grovyle|tds}} were trying to solve the mystery of the paralyzed planet and traveled to the past. There, they were separated when {{mdc|Darkrai|tds}} attacked them, and the player was turned into a Pokémon. Having lost their memory, the player washes up on the {{OBP|Beach|Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky}} and is found by their {{pkmn2|partner}}. After traveling to [[Temporal Tower]] and saving the world from paralysis, the player is erased from existence, but is brought back when [[Primal Dialga|Dialga]] feels the partner's sorrow.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]], many humans have been summoned from an alternate dimension to the Pokémon world by {{mdc|Hydreigon|gti}}, the Voice of Life, to save the world from the [[Bittercold]]. However, all of them were defeated by {{mdc|Munna|gti}} and her gang and sent back to the human world. The player was then summoned, the only human left to save the Pokémon world. After meeting their {{pkmn2|partner}} and defeating Bittercold, the player is sent back to the human world. Their partner later makes a wish at the [[Worldcore]] for the player to return and be allowed to travel between the human world and Pokémon world, and the player is brought back from the human world.

In [[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]], [[Dark Matter]] once attempted to attack the [[Tree of Life]], which would have caused the planet to crash into the sun, but was defeated due to the efforts of a human and {{mdc|Mew|smd}}. However, they failed to completely destroy Dark Matter, so the player is brought from an alternate dimension to the Pokémon world by Mew to save the world when Dark Matter begins to rise again. Finding they have lost their memory, the player meets {{mdc|Nuzleaf|smd}} and their {{pkmn2|partner}}. After traveling to the Tree of Life and defeating Dark Matter, the player realizes that at some point, they must have to return to the human world. However, the player's partner, a reincarnation of Mew, leaves the player instead, having fulfilled their role by helping to save the world. Various characters who make a cameo from previous Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games also reference other humans from those games.

This is not always the case as humans are equally capable of good as they are of evil, and are able to see the error of their ways; however, only time will tell if they are also able to learn from their mistakes.

Unlike the real world, humans in the Pokémon world live, for the most part, in an extremely environmentally friendly society. Automobiles are apparently used at a minimum, with walking or riding Pokémon being the preferred [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|methods of transportation]], as demonstrated by the many traveling Trainers who have not been shown to use public transport. However, [[bicycle]]s are common. Many vehicles are seen with virtually no visible emissions such as smoke, suggesting that technology may have allowed for environmentally friendly transportation. Towns and cities are often deeply integrated with the surrounding environment, and often allow surrounding forests to encroach on the city borders.

The population of humans appears to be much lower than that of the real world, as seen by the immense stretches of forest and fields, untouched by human development. There are also many examples of human developments, both ancient and modern, that have been abandoned for one reason or another that have since been reclaimed by nature and Pokémon.

===Technology===
[[File:Dawn Johanna videophone.png|thumb|220px|[[Johanna]] and {{an|Dawn}} in a video call]]
Humans in the [[Pokémon world]] have achieved a level of technology which surpasses that of the real world. For instance, {{wp|teleportation}}, which was made possible through the use of the [[Infinity Energy]] developed by [[Devon Corporation]], is relatively common in the Pokémon world.

Much of the technology appears to be based around the relationship between humans and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}; this technology includes the ubiquitous [[Poké Ball]] as well as data transfer systems designed to store and move [[caught Pokémon]] at their {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s convenience. Humans have also created [[artificial Pokémon]] and many [[item]]s designed to improve a Pokémon's performance in certain activities.

Many devices to allow people to communicate with each other, such as the [[Xtransceiver]] and the [[Holo Caster]], as well as media technologies that reach a large audience via mass communication, such as [[television]] and [[Radio in the Pokémon world|radio]], have also been developed. Additionally, [[PC|personal computers]] are used to aid people in carrying out numerous tasks and {{wp|videophone}}s have been featured in the {{pkmn|anime}} since the [[original series]].

Apparently, this knack for technology dates back to ancient times as there are many examples of lost civilizations that utilized similar technology. It would seem strange that humans remain dominant over Pokémon, as it is mentioned in many occasions that some {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon (e.g. {{p|Alakazam}} and {{p|Slowking}}) appear to be far more intelligent and powerful than humans, however, this has not been explored much aside from [[Pokédex]] descriptions.

==Human organizations in the Pokémon world==
[[File:HeartGold SoulSilver Team Rocket Grunt.png|thumb|220px|[[Team Rocket]] is a primary example of villainous organizations throughout the Pokémon world]]
:''See also: {{cat|Organizations}}''
* [[International Police]]: A law-enforcement organization.
* [[Pokémon Association]]: Handles legislation regarding Pokémon.
* [[Ranger Union]]: {{OBP|Pokémon Ranger|Ranger series}}s belong to the Ranger Union, an organization with the intention of fighting people who mistreat Pokémon and threaten peace. They utilize the power of Pokémon to protect the environment, help other people, and help Pokémon. Rangers use [[Capture Styler]]s to bestow feelings of friendship to Pokémon.
* [[Villainous teams]]: Always human outside of the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]] and [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], the villainous teams would threaten the region, and serve as antagonists to be defeated. They can range from mere crime syndicates, such as [[Team Rocket]] in the [[Kanto]] or [[Johto]] regions, to groups with specific, extreme ideological beliefs, such as [[Team Galactic]] in the [[Sinnoh]] region or [[Team Plasma]] in the [[Unova]] region.

===Occupations===
* {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}: Raises and mates Pokémon for genetic improvements such as [[move]]s, [[individual values]], and [[Nature]]s.
* [[Pokémon Connoisseur]]: Specializes in identifying the compatibility between Pokémon and their Trainers.
* [[Pokémon Coordinator]]: Raises Pokémon to compete in [[Pokémon Contest]]s, by feeding them snacks used to enhance their appearances and teaching them moves designed for particular [[appeal]]s.
* [[Gym Leader]]: Hold some title of prestige and worthy of recognition among [[Pokémon Trainer]]s, earning them status in a town or city to challenge Trainers aspiring to challenge the [[Pokémon League]] of their particular region.

* [[Pokémon Trainer]]: Raises, travels with, and battles with Pokémon.
* [[Pokémon watcher]]: Studies Pokémon, their habits, behaviors, and interactions.

===Ancient civilizations===
Many references to ancient human civilizations have appeared in many forms of Pokémon related media. It is their existence and their interactions with Pokémon that eventually gave rise to many fables, myths and legends regarding different Pokémon, legendary or not. These ancient people didn't only leave behind stories, but ancient artifacts and even whole ruins which have since been reclaimed by nature and Pokémon. While many civilizations have been referenced, only a few have been explicitly named:

* [[Draconid people]]: A tribe of {{type|Dragon}}-users who resided in [[Meteor Falls]].
* [[Kingdom of the Vale]]: A kingdom which once lived in peace with both Pokémon and nature using the power of the [[Dragon Force]], before it fell to ruin due to war between the [[Heroes of Truth and Ideals|two princes]], which resulted in the Dragon Force going out of control.
* [[People of the Water]]: A race of people who left behind [[Samiya]], a sea temple activated by crystals.
* [[Pokélantis]]: A lost empire in [[Kanto]] that was destroyed by {{p|Ho-Oh}} when its [[King of Pokélantis|king]] wanted to abuse Ho-Oh's power.
* [[Pokémopolis]]: Another ancient civilization in Kanto. Had artifacts that contained [[Giant Pokémon]].

==In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series==
The [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]] takes place in the {{OBP|Pokémon world|Mystery Dungeon}}, inhabited solely by Pokémon. However, in all of the games except for the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)|WiiWare titles]], the {{player}} is a human who has been turned into a Pokémon. In Gates to Infinity and Super Mystery Dungeon, humans are established to be thought not to exist by most Pokémon, existing only in children's stories.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], a [[Team Meanies|greedy Trainer]] [[Ninetales legend|grabbed a tail]] of a {{p|Ninetales}}. The resulting curse was taken by his {{mdc|Gardevoir|rb}}, and the Ninetales prophesied that the human would be reincarnated as a {{p|Gengar|Pokémon}} in the future during a time of natural disasters. The player is summoned to the Pokémon world by that Gardevoir to stop a falling star from destroying the world, losing their memory in the process. After meeting their {{pkmn2|partner}} and calling upon {{DL|List of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team characters|Rayquaza}} to destroy the meteor, the player leaves the Pokémon world, but decides to return when their partner pleads to Gardevoir. {{fa|Decrepit Lab}} is also mentioned to have been built by humans.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], the player and {{mdc|Grovyle|tds}} were trying to solve the mystery of the paralyzed planet and traveled to the past. There, they were separated when {{mdc|Darkrai|tds}} attacked them, and the player was turned into a Pokémon. Having lost their memory, the player washes up on the {{OBP|Beach|Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky}} and is found by their {{pkmn2|partner}}. After traveling to [[Temporal Tower]] and saving the world from paralysis, the player is erased from existence, but is brought back when [[Primal Dialga|Dialga]] feels the partner's sorrow.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]], many humans have been summoned from an alternate dimension to the Pokémon world by {{mdc|Hydreigon|gti}}, the Voice of Life, to save the world from the [[Bittercold]]. However, all of them were defeated by {{mdc|Munna|gti}} and her gang and sent back to the human world. The player was then summoned, the only human left to save the Pokémon world. After meeting their {{pkmn2|partner}} and defeating Bittercold, the player is sent back to the human world. Their partner later makes a wish at the [[Worldcore]] for the player to return and be allowed to travel between the human world and Pokémon world, and the player is brought back from the human world.

In [[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]], [[Dark Matter]] once attempted to attack the [[Tree of Life]], which would have caused the planet to crash into the sun, but was defeated due to the efforts of a human and {{mdc|Mew|smd}}. However, they failed to completely destroy Dark Matter, so the player is brought from an alternate dimension to the Pokémon world by Mew to save the world when Dark Matter begins to rise again. Finding they have lost their memory, the player meets {{mdc|Nuzleaf|smd}} and their {{pkmn2|partner}}. After traveling to the Tree of Life and defeating Dark Matter, the player realizes that at some point, they must have to return to the human world. However, the player's partner, a reincarnation of Mew, leaves the player instead, having fulfilled their role by helping to save the world. Various characters who make a cameo from previous Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games also reference other humans from those games.

Arisboch: /* Culture */

[[File:FireRed LeafGreen Red.png|thumb|170px|{{ga|Red}}, a human in the [[Pokémon world]]]]
'''Humans''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|人|ひと}}''' ''human'') are a species that exist in the [[Pokémon world]]. They usually live in harmony with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, in a world similar to that of the real world. Humans who own and use Pokémon for a number of different purposes are called [[Pokémon Trainer]]s and are found throughout the [[region]]s of the Pokémon world. The very relationship between humans and Pokémon is what the [[Pokémon|series]] mainly revolves around, featuring them in the vast majority of {{pkmn|games}}, {{pkmn|anime}}, {{pkmn|manga}}, and other media. Throughout the Pokémon series, humans have befriended Pokémon and used their help in tasks like battling, Pokémon Contests, protecting nature, and other vital roles. However, some [[villainous teams]] have used Pokémon as tools for selfishness and evil.

==Overview==
===Characteristics===
Humans in various age groups have been shown in all sources of Pokémon media, while infants have seldom been seen and very rarely appear in the {{pkmn|anime}}. The biological relationship between humans and Pokémon is not explored within the series, but it is known that humans and Pokémon are two different "species" resp. categories of life forms, unlike the real-world common ancestry between humans and animals.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2012/11/23/2389986.aspx?PostPageIndex=2 Pokémon's Burning Questions: interview with Junichi Masuda]</ref> A few humans appear to possess abilities well beyond those that real-world humans are capable of attaining, such as having {{tc|Psychic}} or [[Aura]] powers.

For comical purposes, characters in the Pokémon world are often pictured with a greatly exaggerated ability to withstand physical trauma, (e.g. being {{status|burned}}, {{status|poisoned}}, and falling great distances). The most common occurrence of humans being harmed without injury is the constant electrocution of {{Ash}} and his nemesis, the [[Team Rocket trio]], consisting of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, who are blasted off over the horizon countless times in the early seasons of the {{pkmn|anime}} series. However, Pokémon still present a threat to humans, hence why people need a [[Pokémon Trainer's license|license]] in order to train Pokémon.

===Culture===
The human culture of the Pokémon world, much like the technology, is depicted as revolving around Pokémon. The care and research of Pokémon is shown to be of primary importance, Pokémon feature in many forms of entertainment and media, such as [[Movies in the Pokémon world|movies]] and [[Magazines in the Pokémon world|magazines]], and [[Pokémon battle]]s are an almost universal pastime. Facilities such as [[Pokémon Center]]s, [[Gym]]s, and even entire arenas and stadiums have been built to this end. So important are Pokémon to humans that they were revered or even outright worshiped in certain parts of the world, especially {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], so named because of their prominent roles in myths and legends. However, this fascination with Pokémon is not always benevolent; various individuals and organizations with motives ranging from greed to megalomania have repeatedly tried to exploit Pokémon to further their own agendas, often at the expense of the well being of Pokémon, other people or even the very world itself. This is not always the case as humans are equally capable of good as they are of evil, and are able to see the error of their ways; however, only time will tell if they are also able to learn from their mistakes.

Unlike the real world, humans in the Pokémon world live, for the most part, in an extremely environmentally friendly society. Automobiles are apparently used at a minimum, with walking or riding Pokémon being the preferred [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|methods of transportation]], as demonstrated by the many traveling Trainers who have not been shown to use public transport. However, [[bicycle]]s are common. Many vehicles are seen with virtually no visible emissions such as smoke, suggesting that technology may have allowed for environmentally friendly transportation. Towns and cities are often deeply integrated with the surrounding environment, and often allow surrounding forests to encroach on the city borders.

The population of humans appears to be much lower than that of the real world, as seen by the immense stretches of forest and fields, untouched by human development. There are also many examples of human developments, both ancient and modern, that have been abandoned for one reason or another that have since been reclaimed by nature and Pokémon.

Much of the technology appears to be based around the relationship between humans and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}; this technology includes the ubiquitous [[Poké Ball]] as well as data transfer systems designed to store and move [[caught Pokémon]] at their {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s convenience. Humans have also created [[artificial Pokémon]] and many [[item]]s designed to improve a Pokémon's performance in certain activities.

Many devices to allow people to communicate with each other, such as the [[Xtransceiver]] and the [[Holo Caster]], as well as media technologies that reach a large audience via mass communication, such as [[television]] and [[Radio in the Pokémon world|radio]], have also been developed. Additionally, [[PC|personal computers]] are used to aid people in carrying out numerous tasks and {{wp|videophone}}s have been featured in the {{pkmn|anime}} since the [[original series]].

Apparently, this knack for technology dates back to ancient times as there are many examples of lost civilizations that utilized similar technology. It would seem strange that humans remain dominant over Pokémon, as it is mentioned in many occasions that some {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon (e.g. {{p|Alakazam}} and {{p|Slowking}}) appear to be far more intelligent and powerful than humans, however, this has not been explored much aside from [[Pokédex]] descriptions.

==In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series==
The [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]] takes place in the {{OBP|Pokémon world|Mystery Dungeon}}, inhabited solely by Pokémon. However, in all of the games except for the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)|WiiWare titles]], the {{player}} is a human who has been turned into a Pokémon. In Gates to Infinity and Super Mystery Dungeon, humans are established to be thought not to exist by most Pokémon, existing only in children's stories.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], a [[Team Meanies|greedy Trainer]] [[Ninetales legend|grabbed a tail]] of a {{p|Ninetales}}. The resulting curse was taken by his {{mdc|Gardevoir|rb}}, and the Ninetales prophesied that the human would be reincarnated as a {{p|Gengar|Pokémon}} in the future during a time of natural disasters. The player is summoned to the Pokémon world by that Gardevoir to stop a falling star from destroying the world, losing their memory in the process. After meeting their {{pkmn2|partner}} and calling upon {{DL|List of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team characters|Rayquaza}} to destroy the meteor, the player leaves the Pokémon world, but decides to return when their partner pleads to Gardevoir. {{fa|Decrepit Lab}} is also mentioned to have been built by humans.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], the player and {{mdc|Grovyle|tds}} were trying to solve the mystery of the paralyzed planet and traveled to the past. There, they were separated when {{mdc|Darkrai|tds}} attacked them, and the player was turned into a Pokémon. Having lost their memory, the player washes up on the {{OBP|Beach|Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky}} and is found by their {{pkmn2|partner}}. After traveling to [[Temporal Tower]] and saving the world from paralysis, the player is erased from existence, but is brought back when [[Primal Dialga|Dialga]] feels the partner's sorrow.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]], many humans have been summoned from an alternate dimension to the Pokémon world by {{mdc|Hydreigon|gti}}, the Voice of Life, to save the world from the [[Bittercold]]. However, all of them were defeated by {{mdc|Munna|gti}} and her gang and sent back to the human world. The player was then summoned, the only human left to save the Pokémon world. After meeting their {{pkmn2|partner}} and defeating Bittercold, the player is sent back to the human world. Their partner later makes a wish at the [[Worldcore]] for the player to return and be allowed to travel between the human world and Pokémon world, and the player is brought back from the human world.

In [[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]], [[Dark Matter]] once attempted to attack the [[Tree of Life]], which would have caused the planet to crash into the sun, but was defeated due to the efforts of a human and {{mdc|Mew|smd}}. However, they failed to completely destroy Dark Matter, so the player is brought from an alternate dimension to the Pokémon world by Mew to save the world when Dark Matter begins to rise again. Finding they have lost their memory, the player meets {{mdc|Nuzleaf|smd}} and their {{pkmn2|partner}}. After traveling to the Tree of Life and defeating Dark Matter, the player realizes that at some point, they must have to return to the human world. However, the player's partner, a reincarnation of Mew, leaves the player instead, having fulfilled their role by helping to save the world. Various characters who make a cameo from previous Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games also reference other humans from those games.

Arisboch: /* Loser or winner */ new section

== Ash's Electrium Z temporarily changed to Pikanium Z? ==

Ash's Electrium Z has a different design in one of the scenes. It appears after the training wheel exploded and the Z-crystal glowed. The new design/pattern appears as a 2-stepped lightning bolt akin to the Pikanium Z.

As Pikachu was running on the training wheel when the Z-crystal reacted, it might be a reference to Pikachu requiring to know Volt Tackle for the Pikanium Z to activate.

Can this be added to the page as speculation (as it wasn't verbally confirmed in the episode)?
If not will this be treated as an animation error?

Silph Co.

Arisboch: /* In the Pokémon Zensho manga */

{{Infobox location
|image=FL Silph Company.png
|image_size=240
|type=building
|location_name=Silph Company
|japanese_name=シルフカンパニー
|translated_name=Silph Company

}}

The '''Silph Company''' (Japanese: '''シルフカンパニー''' ''Silph Company''), or simply '''Silph Co.''', is a company headquartered in [[Saffron City]] that is featured in many versions of the [[Pokémon]] franchise. They are the manufacturers of many tools, including the [[Silph Scope]]—a device that allows the user to view {{OBP|Ghost|literal|spectral entities}}—as well as home appliances. They are also speculated to run the [[Poké Mart]]s in [[Kanto]] as well as in [[Johto]] and the [[Sevii Islands]].

In the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, due to [[Team Rocket]] having invaded the Silph Co. headquarters in Saffron City, a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} is initially guarding the front door, preventing entrance into the building. After the {{player}} has saved [[Mr. Fuji]] from Team Rocket at the [[Pokémon Tower]] in [[Lavender Town]], the guard will have fallen asleep{{sup/1|RB}}{{sup/3|FRLG}} or disappeared{{sup/1|Y}}, allowing the player to enter the building.

==In the core series games==
[[File:SugimoriMasterBall.png|thumb|150px|right|A Silph Co. Master Ball]]
===Overview===
Silph Co. is the leading manufacturer of Pokémon technology. This company develops the most commercially used [[Poké Ball]]s and several other Pokémon-related items, including medicine and [[TM|Technical Machines]], looking for ways to improve them. It supplies the [[Poké Mart]]s of its territory. Its president is a kind, old man.

In the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, {{tc|Scientist}} Taylor mentions an international branch of Silph Co. In English, he states that the {{wp|Tiksi}} branch of the company is "in {{wp|Russia}}n no-man's-land". In the Japanese version, he states that the Ponaya Tunguska (Japanese: ポナヤツングスカ) branch is located "deep in Russia". Ponaya Tunguska appears to be a shortened form of the transliterated name of {{wp|Podkamennaya Tunguska (rural locality)|Podkamennaya Tunguska}} in Japanese (ポドカメンナヤツングースカ).

===History===
Silph's status had made it a target of [[Team Rocket]], which in Generation {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}, orchestrated the takeover of their headquarters in [[Saffron City]]. The situation will be resolved by the {{player}}, who will take on the mission of driving them out of the city. Team Rocket had also gained the Silph Co.-made [[Silph Scope]] to combat {{OBP|ghost|literal}}s. It is revealed by the company's president that the top-secret development project Team Rocket was after is the [[Master Ball]], which can catch any Pokémon without fail.

===Headquarters===
The Silph Co. Office Building, based in [[Saffron City]], is an eleven-floor {{wp|skyscraper}} that is effectively a giant maze.

====Generations I and III====
In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}, the {{player}} can navigate on the inside of the building by using [[warp tile]]s in order to reach the board room on the top floor. The player must find the [[Card Key]], which unlocks Silph's doors like a hotel key, on the fifth floor of the building in order to do this. All the while, the player must battle through numerous {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s, including the [[Rocket Brothers]], and one {{tc|Juggler}}, who is curiously also part of [[Team Rocket]]. Several {{tc|Scientist}}s have also defected to Team Rocket, sometimes pretending to be hostages, and will battle the player on sight. The bed at the bottom-left corner of the ninth floor can be used to heal the Trainer's Pokémon without having to leave the building.

Then the player must return to the third floor, open the doors in the center-left of the floor, and use the warp tile to the far left to be taken to the room with a further warp tile that leads to board room. {{ga|Blue|The player's rival}} waits in that room and must be defeated before continuing on. After he has been beaten, the other person in the room will give the player a {{p|Lapras}}, an extremely rare Pokémon that cannot be obtained any other way in [[Generation I]].

After this, the player may continue on to the board room to face [[Giovanni]] and ensure that the plans for the [[Master Ball]] are not stolen. After rescuing Silph, the player is free to explore the building and talk to the employees.

On the second floor, a woman hiding from Team Rocket will give away a [[TM36]] ({{m|Self-Destruct}}) in [[Generation I]]. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, she will instead [[Move Tutor|offer to teach]] the move {{m|Thunder Wave}} to a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

====Generations II and IV====
[[File:Pokégear HGSS m.png|thumb|150px|A Silph Co. Pokégear, bearing the company's logo]]
In Generations {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}}, Silph Co. has increased security, and the {{player}} is not allowed to enter the upper floors. One of the guards will kindly give the player an [[Up-Grade]] for talking to him.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the elevator has broken and is unsafe, denying the player access to the upper floors. However, upon defeating {{ga|Red}}, the player may obtain one of the [[Hoenn]] region's [[starter Pokémon]] from [[Hoenn]] {{pkmn|Champion}}, [[Steven Stone]]. He will also trade his {{p|Beldum}} for a {{p|Forretress}}.

[[Generation IV]] introduced a logo for the company that appears on the [[Pokégear]] and has a statue based on it in the company's building.

====Rotom's Room====
{{main|Rotom's Room}}
The alternate forms of {{p|Rotom}} may also be accessed here in [[Generation IV]] via the broken elevator. When Rotom is in the party, the Silph Co. building will be deserted of all people, including {{Steven}}. The notebook present in the room indicates that [[Charon]] may have had a past connection to the company.

===Discoveries and inventions===
Within the company, there are reports of discoveries that serve as in-game trivia for the player.

In the [[Generation I]] games, one report says that only four {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[Evolution|evolve]] when [[trade]]d, referring to {{p|Kadabra}}, {{p|Graveler}}, {{p|Machoke}}, and {{p|Haunter}}. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, it instead says that some Pokémon evolve when traded.

Another report confirms that Pokémon can learn over 160 [[Move|techniques]] in the Generation I games, while in FireRed and LeafGreen it's over 350 techniques.

A third report informs the player that {{p|Porygon}}, the first virtual-reality Pokémon, was created by the [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Cinnabar Island]].

==In Super Smash Bros.==
{{main|Saffron City (stage)}}
[[File:Saffron City SSB.png|200px|thumb|Silph Co. in [[Super Smash Bros.]]]]
Silph Co. appears in [[Saffron City]] as a playable stage in [[Super Smash Bros.]] (called '''Silf''' in the Japanese version). The {{pkmn|battle}} takes place on the roof of Silph Co. and a few smaller surrounding buildings, along with two small moving platforms. This is the home stage of {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Jigglypuff}} in the game.

Certain Pokémon will emerge from the elevator on the Silph Co. building and attack briefly, similar to Pokémon summoned from {{DL|Poké Ball|Super Smash Bros.|Poké Balls}}. Occasionally, {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Fearow}}, {{p|Butterfree}}, and other {{type|Flying}} Pokémon will appear in the background.

===In Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Silph Company PO.png|255px|thumb|left|Silph Co. in Pokémon Origins]]
Silph Co. appeared in the [[Pokémon Origins]] episode ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]''. Like in the games, it was taken over by [[Team Rocket]]. Hearing from Silph Co.'s vice-president of how Team Rocket was experimenting on Pokémon in order to accelerate the completion of [[Master Ball]], {{OBP|Red|Origins}} decided to storm the building. Doing so, he freed all the Pokémon and {{tc|Scientist}}s that were trapped inside, even obtaining a {{p|Lapras}} from one of the Scientists as a thank-you gift. Finally he arrived at the president's office, where he encountered [[Giovanni]]. Before Giovanni could escape, Red proclaimed that he would always be out there to stop their plans, irritating the Team Rocket Boss. Wanting to teach Red a lesson, Giovanni challenged Red to a Pokémon battle, which ended with Giovanni's {{p|Nidoqueen}} defeating [[Red's Charizard]] and wrecking a big portion of the building in the process. Afterwards, Giovanni escaped with a helicopter, leaving before the police could arrive. It was also mentioned that the development of Master Ball was put on hold for a while due to this incident.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Silph Co Adventures.png|200px|thumb|Silph Co. in Pokémon Adventures]]
Silph Co. made a brief appearance at the end of ''[[PS026|Holy Moltres]]'' in the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, where [[Sabrina]] was in the office with {{adv|Giovanni}} saying that they have captured all the [[legendary birds]]. Later, the [[Pokédex holder]]s battled against the evil [[Gym Leader]]s and {{DL|Legendary birds (Adventures)|Thu-Fi-Zer}} in there, and defeated them, causing the building to collapse and freeing the legendary birds in the process. {{chap|Yellow|Two years later}} in ''[[PS041|Ponyta Tale]]'', [[Agatha]] picked up the Badge Energy Amplifier that was buried in the rubble for usage at [[Cerise Island]].

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===

Satoshi and Sabrina decided to team up against Team Rocket, and used Sabrina's teleporting powers to reach the top floor, where Giovanni was keeping Silph Co.'s president hostage. After defeating Giovanni's {{p|Nidoqueen}} with Lapras, Satoshi obtained the [[Master Ball]] from Silph Co.'s president and the {{badge|Marsh}} from Sabrina as a thanks for his help.

==Trivia==
* Although a logo for the company was not introduced in-game until [[Generation IV]], several possible logos have been seen in previous games. One appeared in early artwork of the [[Silph Scope]] on the front of the device, another appeared on the side of the Silph Co. building in [[Super Smash Bros.]], a third appeared on the original [[Pokégear]] artwork as a stylized 'S', and a fourth can be seen on the [[Time Capsule]].
* In the [[Generation II]] games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, [[Maizie]] mentions that her father works for Silph. Scientist Ross, who can be battled in the [[Team Rocket HQ]], also claims that he used to work for Silph.
* The elevator on 11F has a bug in {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}} that causes the player to be layered on its doors upon leaving it. Another quirk occurs as result, which disables the elevator mat's left tile if the player enters the elevator without being on the doors and does not move from that tile afterwards, thus preventing him or her from exiting without specifically using the mat's right tile. Both these issues were fixed in {{game|Yellow}}.

==Name origin==
Silph Co.'s name is a corruption of {{wp|Sylph}}, a mythological creature.

==Blurb==

Ash's newly caught Treecko may be a bit standoff-ish, but the little green Pokémon is quite a fighter. When Team Rocket sees Treecko knocked down and hurt by a Seviper, they decide that they must have that Seviper. Jessie is very impressed with its "sneaky, snakey ways." Meanwhile, Treecko escapes from the Pokémon Center where Ash brought it to recover. When the gang finds Treecko, it is practicing its attack moves. Again and again, Treecko jumps from the top of a waterfall and tries to break a rock at the bottom with its tail. Ash is very impressed with the rigor of its training. All of Treecko's hard work appears to have paid off—when Team Rocket attacks and catches Pikachu with the help of their new Seviper, Treecko is able to save the day.

==Plot==
The episode begins with the group releasing their Pokémon and settling down to a meal prepared by {{an|Brock}}. Upon their release, {{AP|Taillow}}, {{TP|May|Torchic}} and {{TP|Brock|Forretress}} are surprised to see {{Ash}}'s newly caught {{AP|Treecko}}. Nervous about the attention it is receiving, Treecko quickly climbs a tree and refuses to come down. The group eventually returns to their food, as do their Pokémon. From its perch, Treecko, spots a {{p|Seviper}} in the bushes.

Torchic gets over-excited and runs around with an apple on its head and a bunch of grapes in its mouth. Seviper trips Torchic up using its tail, causing Torchic to drop the grapes and the apple. Torchic runs off after the apple and stops in front of it. Torchic begins to dance happily, before noticing the huge snake Pokémon on the other side of the apple. Seviper eats the apple and Torchic gets angry. Seviper attacks Torchic and Treecko tries to save the tiny bird, but gets knocked back. Seviper hits Torchic around using its tail.

As the others rush up to help, Seviper uses its {{m|Haze}} attack so that they can't see what it's doing. Treecko sees that there is a gap at the top of the haze, so it jumps back up the tree again and sees Torchic being captive by Seviper's tail. It jumps down onto Seviper's head and Seviper drops Torchic. Treecko picks Torchic up and delivers it to {{an|May}}. Seviper gets furious and uses {{m|Poison Tail}} on Treecko, scoring a direct hit straight into a tree. As Seviper is about to hit Treecko again, Ash commands Taillow and {{AP|Pikachu}} to use {{m|Wing Attack}} and {{m|Thunderbolt}} respectively, while Brock's Forretress uses {{m|Spikes}}.

After they get rid of Seviper, Ash and {{ashfr}} run to Treecko, who's so weak it can't even stand up. They rush it to the nearest [[Pokémon Center]], where Nurse Joy treats it.

Meanwhile, {{TRT}} has been watching, and seeing the way Seviper almost effortlessly dispatched the Pokémon, decides they want to catch it. They see that it likes fruit, so they lure it with a basket of fruit left on the other side of a trap hole. Seviper just picks up the basket with its tail, stretches over the trapdoor, and glides away. Team Rocket gets mad and jumps out from the bushes, straight onto the trapdoor, and falls in. However, they don't let it discourage them. Turns out, they had a backup plan, but their plan using a net doesn't work either; Seviper just bites through the net.

Back at the Pokémon Center, Ash and Pikachu are observing Treecko. Meanwhile, the Rockets have lunch, during which they fight over the last rice ball. When they accidentally send it flying into the nearby brook, [[James]] and {{MTR}} freak out, but [[Jessie]] calmly breaks out a rice ball she'd hidden "just in case", angering her partners. However, Seviper sneaks up on her and swipes the rice ball just seconds before she chomps down on it. Jessie gets mad and sends out {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} (The only Pokémon she has after releasing her {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}) and commands him to "teach that thieving Seviper a lesson". Wobbuffet obeys, but as he can't attack until something or someone else attacks him first, nothing happens. [[James]] soon points this out after a moment, and a frustrated Jessie recalls Wobbuffet, grumbling about how he's "never useful when necessary". She then grabs Meowth and hurls him at Seviper, commanding a {{m|Double-Edge}} attack. As he soars towards Seviper, Meowth screams that he doesn't know that attack just before the Fang Snake Pokémon smacks him across the face with its tail, sending him flying backwards into his comrades.

As all three hit the ground, another rice ball is knocked out of Jessie's pocket and rolls towards Seviper. James and {{MTR}} are surprised by this revelation as Jessie chases after the rice ball, though she fails to get it back. To the trio's horror, Jessie's hair gets caught in Seviper's jaws in the process and a large chunk of it gets cut off. Enraged, Jessie makes a "[[Scary Face]]" at the Seviper and proceeds to give it a merciless beating with her "{{m|Fury Swipes}}" and "{{m|Mega Kick}}" in front of her terrified partners, who are seen hugging each other in desperation and fear throughout the majority of the scene. The ferocious beating knocks Seviper out cold, and Jessie, still seething with anger even though she has calmed down a bit, seizes it by the neck. Fortunately for Seviper, James and Meowth quickly remind Jessie that she is supposed to catch it. This calms Jessie down, and, as James and Meowth sigh with relief, she tosses a [[Poké Ball]] at Seviper, catching it at last.

At the Pokémon Center, Brock is explaining Nurse Joy's position in the family to May (she's the younger sister of the second cousin of Nurse Joy in [[Oldale Town]]'s first cousin) when {{TP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}} rushes in and indicates that Treecko ran away from the Center. Ash and his friends run out, calling for it, and see it jumping down a waterfall, onto a rock, and into the water. They realize that it's {{pkmn|training}}, trying to break the rock with its tail. After a few more jumps, Treecko has an idea. It spins to increase its power before hitting the rock, finally breaking it, much to the amazement of the group. Ash congratulates Treecko and runs out with Pikachu to meet it, but Pikachu gets captured by Team Rocket.

Ash, enraged, sends out his Taillow, while James sends out {{TP|James|Cacnea}} against it, and yells as Cacnea hugs him, ordering it to use {{m|Pin Missile}}, to which Taillow dodges successfully. Jessie then sends out Seviper, and the "twerps" are surprised to see that it's the same one that faced them before. Treecko, after Ash's short speech, faces up to it, and after an exchange of attacks between Seviper's {{m|Poison Tail}} and Treecko's {{m|Quick Attack}} and uses its new spinning move, defeats it and rescues Pikachu. It says that now it's had its revenge, Pikachu can finish it off, so Pikachu uses {{m|Thunder}} to send the Rockets flying. Ash thanks Treecko for battling for him, and finds he's won Treecko's trust when Treecko turns and holds out its tail. Ash and Pikachu shake hands with Treecko's tail, laughing happily.

==Trivia==
[[File:AG008 Error 2.png|thumb|200px|right|May's missing gloves]]
* This is one of the rare occasions in the 4Kids dub that [[rice ball]]s have been referred to as such instead of something more Western.
* This episode is featured on ''Volume 12: Treecko'' from [[Viz Media]]'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 1}} series.
* The title of this episode references "a tale with a twist."
* This is the second time a Pokémon has taken a chunk of Jessie's hair, the first instance being a {{p|Scyther}}.
* This is the first episode where an instrumental version of ''[[Advance Adventure]]'' is used as the new action sequence in the English dub.
* This episode is one of the only [[BW032|two]] times a Pokémon is caught in a battle with a human.
* This is the first episode in which {{TP|James|Cacnea}} hurts James when it is released from its Poké Ball.

===Errors===
[[File:AG008 Error.png|right|thumb|200px|Jessie's hair is back to normal]]
* After the few seconds she is off-camera between throwing her [[Poké Ball]] and picking it up, Jessie's hair is back to full length, when it was just {{m|Bite|bitten}} off by {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}.
** This is an example of [[Anime physics|anime physics.]]
* Brock tells Forretress to use "Spike attack" instead of {{m|Spikes}} attack.
* In one scene when Team Rocket are spying on the heroes in the bushes, {{MTR}} stated that Seviper took down {{AP|Pikachu}} even though it was {{AP|Treecko}} that got hurt.
* When Jessie is attacking Seviper, James says Jessie used "Megaton Kick", instead of {{m|Mega Kick}}. "Megaton Kick" happens to be the Japanese name of the [[move]].
* When Treecko escapes from the Pokémon Center and everybody runs out, only Ash, May and Max's feet are seen leaving before the door shuts.
* When May calls out her Torchic, her gloves disappear for a second.
* As Team Rocket is blasting off, Wobbuffet can be heard even though he was not out.

* When Jessie uses ''Fury Swipes'' on Seviper, the first second of the attack is obscured by a full screen 'impact star'. This edit only happens in the US version however, the UK showings on Cartoon Network TOO plays the scene with no edits.

'''Sliggoo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヌメイル''' ''Numeil'') is a {{type|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Goomy}} starting at [[level]] 40 and evolves into {{p|Goodra}} starting at level 50 when leveled up during [[rain]] in the overworld. Rain instigated by {{m|Rain Dance}}, {{a|Drizzle}}, or {{a|Primordial Sea}} will not trigger this evolution.

==Biology==
Sliggoo is a gooey purple Pokémon with the body structure of a snail. Its underbelly is a deeper shade of purple than the top part of its body. It is over twice as tall as its preevolved form, but remains relatively small. Its eyes are now green and large, with one eyelash on each eye; but since its eyes are undeveloped, Sliggoo is blind. It has two pale green spots on either side of its head. It has two small, underdeveloped arms, two sets of antennae atop its head, and a gooey snail-like shell on its back that looks like it is part of its gelatinous body.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Sliggoo]]====
Ash's {{p|Goomy}} [[Evolution|evolved]] into a {{AP|Sliggoo}} in ''[[XY061|An Oasis of Hope!]]''. Sliggoo later evolved into {{AP|Goodra}} during ''[[XY065|Good Friends, Great Training!]]'' when it helped put out a big fire with {{m|Rain Dance}}.

==In the manga==

===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
In the {{chap|X & Y}}, a {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}} used a Sliggoo to trap {{adv|Y}} while she was playing the [[Berry Picker]] game with her newly-caught [[Y (Adventures)#Veevee|Eevee]]. Eevee paid off Y's efforts to befriend it, by evolving into a {{p|Sylveon}} and defeating the Sliggoo with {{m|Draining Kiss}}.

==Trivia==
*Requiring 40 levels to evolve from Goomy and just 10 more to evolve into Goodra, Sliggoo has the lowest relative second-stage evolution requirement, at exactly 25%.
* Sliggoo was designed by [[Saya Tsuruta]].

===Origin===
Sliggoo seems based on soft bodied gastropods such as {{wp|slugs}}, {{wp|nudibranch}}, and {{wp|semi-slug}}s.
Its snail origins as well as its Dragon typing and elongated body shape may mean it could also be based on the {{wp|Lou Carcolh}}, a mythical serpent/mollusk creature from French folklore.
It may also be based upon the concept of "living slime" in popular culture.

====Name origin====
Sliggoo may be a combination of ''slick'', ''slither'', ''slippery'', ''slimy'', or ''slug'', and ''goo''.

Numeil is from 滑る ''numeru'' (to be slippery) and ''snail''.

Gotta catch 'em all!

[[File:English motto.png|thumb|250px|The original logo for the phrase]]
[[File:Gotta Catch Em All logo.png|thumb|260px|The new logo]]
'''Gotta catch 'em all!''' is the English slogan of the Pokémon franchise, including the English language [[Pokémon games|Pokémon video games]]. The Japanese equivalent is '''Get Pokémon!''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンゲットだぜー！''' ''Pokémon <sc>get</sc> da ze~!'', also spelt '''ポケモンＧＥＴだぜー！''')

The first pair of Pokémon games released in North America, {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, were labeled with the catchphrase below the Pokémon logo. Their sequels, {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, and later, {{game|Crystal}}, had the catchphrase in the same position. {{game|Yellow}} was the only exception, instead advertising that it was the "Special {{p|Pikachu}} Edition" of the game below the logo. The slogan was then retired for all subsequent games. Despite the slogan being brought back after the release of [[Pokémon X and Y]], the phrase has not reappeared on the box art akin to the earlier [[generation]]s.

==In the anime==
The most noticeable reference to the catchphrase in the {{pkmn|anime}} was introduced in the [[EP001|first episode]] by [[Ash Ketchum]] himself. Promising that he would catch all of the Pokémon in the {{pkmn|world}}, Ash set off on his journey. However, up to the current point in the anime, Ash has only progressed to 66 captures of Pokémon, just over 9% of the total number of Pokémon known as of [[Generation VI]]. Moreover, Ash does not at all focus on catching as many species as he can; he even expresses distaste for Gary's training method of "catching them all". The motto also seems to be a pun for Pokémon photographers, as [[Robert's grandfather]] "caught them all" and {{Todd}} "catches" Pokémon.

Another anime reference comes in the lyrics of different songs. It is featured in the [[Pokémon Theme|original opening theme]], as well as in the chorus of the [[Pokérap]]. It is also found in [[Pokémon Johto|the theme]] for [[S03|The Johto Journeys]], the anime's third season. The lyrics include, in reference to the {{cat|Generation II Pokémon|Pokémon introduced in Gold and Silver}}, that "you still gotta catch 'em all!". A new, remixed version of the original theme was used as the opening for the [[S17|first season of the ''XY'' series]].

The reference was used as the title of the penultimate episode of the [[original series]], ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]''. In this episode, both {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} return to [[Kanto]], leaving Ash to head to the [[Hoenn]] region alone.

The slogan was referenced in the English-language version of ''[[M07|Pokémon: Destiny Deoxys]]'' when {{an|Brock}} says the phrase when collecting food from a haywire robotic vending machine during a power outage (with "them all", in this instance, being hot dogs).

The [[Pokérap GS]] used the catchphrase quite prominently.

The line was later said by {{MTR}} in ''[[AG012|The Lotad Lowdown]]''.

The line is also referenced in the song [[Can't Stop (Catchin' 'Em All)]] several times.

The "Gotta catch 'em all!" phrase is also seen in the [[Who's That Pokémon?]] segment in the XY series. However, in certain international versions the line is replaced with respective ''Pokémon the Series: XY'' localized logos.

==Retirement and return==
The slogan was temporarily retired from the [[Pokémon games]] around 2003, with the release of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. Instead of the now-familiar phrase appearing below the Pokémon logo, the game's version name appeared there. This held true for the remaining games of [[Generation III]], and would later prove to be the standard with the release of the [[Generation IV]] games, {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.

The retirement was possibly due to the large amount of Pokémon now required to capture to complete the [[National Pokédex]], 386 at the time the slogan was retired. It may as well have been due to the incompatibility between the [[Generation II]] and Generation III games, as all of the Pokémon known as of the third generation were not available between Ruby and Sapphire, unlike what had been the case with Red and Blue and Gold and Silver.

The slogan may also have been taken out of use since it was a target of critics of the game and franchise (with some saying the phrase was an equivalent to, "Gotta buy 'em all").

An English-language Diamond and Pearl commercial was released that features the phrase in the United States. It is also used as the slogan for the {{DL|Jubilife TV|Catch That Pokémon Show}} in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. This did not, however, mean that the slogan made a permanent return, rather it was just a reference to the then defunct slogan.

On the {{game|Black and White|s}} official website, the slogan is referenced in the "Pokémon" section of the site. A link to the new Pokémon is labeled with the phrase "See 'Em All."

On September 14, 2013, the phrase was once again used in a trailer that was accidentally leaked on the Pokémon YouTube channel and advertised a new website called "www.gottacatchemall.com" - a website offering people in the United States a chance to win {{g|X and Y}} related prizes in the sweepstakes from September 16 until October 12, 2013. The site required the first name of the user, their respective e-mail address, a username and the code "XY1012" to open. The site scattered various codes around various sites on the internet as "Easter eggs" to unlock {{ball|Poké}}s on the website, and thus, a "Pokémon, a digital gift, and a chance to win". The site now has a new logo for the phrase "Gotta catch 'em all!". The new logo is now used for all videos on [[The Pokémon Company International]]'s YouTube channel, along with a Pikachu saying "Pika!". The logo also began to make appearances in the [[Pokémon anime|Pokémon anime's]] [[Who's That Pokémon?]] segment starting with ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''

==Rewards==
{{incomplete|section|needs=Generation VI rewards}}
[[File:Crystal EN boxart.png|thumb|right|250px|{{game|Crystal}}, the last game to feature the catchphrase on its boxart.]]
In most of the games, the reward for catching all the Pokémon available in the game was a [[diploma]], proof of the feat. However, from the beginning, rumors appeared about a greater reward for attaining the ultimate goal of catching them all. Specifically, in Red and Blue, rumors circulated that after the player had {{pkmn2|caught}} the 150 {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}}, if they showed their full [[Pokédex]] to the [[Game Freak]] employees in [[Celadon Condominiums]], they would be rewarded with the elusive 151st Pokémon, {{p|Mew}}. These rumors, however, were false, as the only reward offered for capture of 150 Pokémon was the Diploma; Mew was only officially available through [[Nintendo]]-sponsored events, though otherwise available through the [[Mew glitch]].

The same was true of the Generation II games, where showing a 249-Pokémon Pokédex (minus {{p|Celebi}} and Mew) would have the same developers give the player another diploma. With the retirement of the slogan, Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire only required the player to complete the 200-Pokémon [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Hoenn Pokédex]] (lacking {{p|Jirachi}} and {{p|Deoxys}}) to receive a diploma, though the 386-Pokémon [[National Pokédex]] still remained as a goal for players who wanted bragging rights.

In the Generation IV games, by the time the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}} are defeated, the player will have seen almost all of the Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]], if not all 150; it is possible to do this even before entering the [[Hall of Fame]]. The reward for this is the National Pokédex, allowing the player to go on a true quest to actually catch them all once more, though this feat requires catching more than three times as many Pokémon as it would take to complete the Sinnoh Pokédex. Catching 482 (or 484 in HeartGold and SoulSilver) of the 493 Pokémon—{{p|Mew}}, {{p|Lugia}}{{tt|*|Sinnoh games only}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}{{tt|*|Sinnoh games only}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Arceus}} are not required—results in the awarding of another diploma.

The first Generation V games, {{2v2|Black|White}}, continue the tradition, with 156 Pokémon in [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number#List of Pokémon by Old Unova Pokédex number|new listing]] (though only 152 are required for diploma - {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}} and {{p|Genesect}} are not). The National diploma requires 636 Pokémon ({{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, and {{p|Genesect}} aren't required).

The sequels to the Generation V games are different, however, giving an actual reward for catching them all. The {{key|V|Permit}} is awarded for seeing 297 out of [[List of Pokémon by New Unova Pokédex number|301 Pokémon]] (as before, {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, and {{p|Genesect}} are not required), which gives player the access to the [[Nature Preserve]]. After catching them all, [[Professor Juniper]] will give the player the [[Oval Charm]], which increases the chances of Pokémon producing {{pkmn|Egg}}s in the Daycare. Finally, after completing the National Pokédex (barring {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, and {{p|Genesect}}), she will also give the player the [[Shiny Charm]] after the player talks to [[Cedric Juniper|Cedric]], which makes [[Shiny Pokémon]] more likely to appear.

In Generation VI, the player once again receives the diploma from the Game Director, and receives the diploma from [[Professor Sycamore]], who also rewards them with the [[Shiny Charm]], like [[Aurea Juniper]] before him. {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, {{p|Genesect}}, and {{p|Diancie}} are not required to complete the Pokédex. In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, [[Professor Birch]] will reward the player in the same way, but because {{p|Deoxys}} can be captured in the game during or after the [[Delta Episode]], its capture is required to receive the diploma and Shiny Charm.

==Trivia==
* The slogan for the [[1999 Burger King promotional Pokémon toys]] was "Gotta catch 'em here!", a reference to the franchise's slogan.
* The slogan's appearance on pre-release box art for {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} indicates that the slogan was initially intended to be kept, but was dropped sometime between January 2003 and March 2003.
* In the [[VIZ Media]] edition of [[Pokémon Adventures]] [[Pokémon Adventures volume 14|volume 14]], [[Professor Oak (Adventures)|Professor Oak]] makes a reference to the slogan, saying that {{adv|Crystal}} "truly catches them all".

...being new and all, but around the 'pedia here, we have a policy about adding things to episode summary pages, that can be summed up in 5 words: '''''WAIT UNTIL THE EPISODE AIRS'''''. It helps keep speculation down, and also helps keep edit wars down, which are people constantly adding stuff that then needs to be removed. I am not trying to be mean here, so I apologize if that is the way I am coming off. I am just trying to help you out here.

== Episode article editing while airing ==

We would prefer it if you do not edit a page while the episode is still airing. If you ddo that, it'll just have to be edited again later resulting in multiple saves.

Also, when you do edit them, please remember to change '''everything''', not just to edit what Pokémon appeared and then leave it alone. There is still the matter of the tag been changed from Future episode to Undubbed episode and changing "this episode is scheduled to air" to "this episode first aired".

Please remember this for the future. Thanks. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 10:39, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Hello Playerking, you've been already informed about the ''preview button''. Instead of making a bunch of edits on the same article, please use the "Preview button" to see the changes and when you feel that you're done with the article, "save" it. [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=BW051&action=history Here], you've made "'''5'''" edits in a row which also clogs the "RC". So, kindly don't forget to use it in the future.

== BW053 ==

Nothing gets solved when you make edits without explaining why you made them. You have had this issue before. You need to use the edit summary box to explain what you are doing and why.

As for BW053, [http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/2312/416955969.jpg this scan shows that the Maractus episode airs on October 27th]. That would make it BW054. That is of course that you have something that shows that the Iris/Deino episode will not air on October 20th. If you do, please show it to me and I will make the changes accordingly. And in the future, '''please use the edit summary box'''. Thank you. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 02:56, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

== Hello ==

Please do not start edit warring when it comes to editing. If you've an information with a valid source or any proof to support your edits then you can provide its link in the "edit summary" box so that users can see whether it's a factual info or not. And if anyone reverts your edit then try to resolve it by discussing it on the respective user's or article's talk page rather than involving yourself into an edit war.

While I have no problem with fixing any mistakes, I ask if you could please refrain from jumping in on something someone else is already working on.

== Quotation marks ==

Hey there, I'm just a regular user here, but I wanted to point this out: When adding the English title for an episode to a link to a certain episode, make sure you use these quotation marks at the beginning and the end, like this: <nowiki>''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]''</nowiki>, so that it will come out like this: ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'', instead of [[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]].

Hello, over the past few days, you have been involved in several edit wars that have been largely disruptive to the editing process. As an experienced user, you should know that edit warring is against Bulbapedia's {{bp|Code of conduct}} and is unacceptable. Please use the talk pages to settle disputes and once a consensus is made, make edits then, not while the discussion is actively taking place. Due to the severity, you have been blocked for a week.

== Multiple undos ==

This may just be me, but I kind of think it's overkill (or something) to undo multiple revisions individually, and I've noticed you doing that a few times in the recent past. If you ask me, it's easier to just undo all of them at once. Often, you may just be able to click on the revision before the first edit you want to undo in the page's history and click "edit this page" from there and save it, but even if there's a "good" edit that came in later, it still shouldn't be ''too'' hard to just manually do all the revisions together. And you can just write something appropriate in the edit summary about how what you're doing is an undo/reversion.

...Just a tip, I guess. Cheers. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 05:13, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

Could you please stop being stubborn and getting rid of moves Pokémon have used? Just because you can't tell what it is doesn't mean everyone can't.

Yes, I understand an admin told you it was okay to remove a few for ambiguity but that doesn't give you permission to get rid of everything that was not specifically stated.

== Finals vs. Final Round ==

First, please remind yourself of the Edit Warring rules. Continually reverting edits of a specific point is edit warring.
Second, take a look back through not just the couple of episodes before [[XY129]], but also back to [[DP188|other]] [[DP189|league]] [[AG131|episodes]] to see that the established convention is to use "quarter-finals", "semi-finals", and "finals". Reverting an edit just because you do not agree with following an established convention is, to quote your edit summary, "petty". [[User:ChE clarinetist|ChE clarinetist]] ([[User talk:ChE clarinetist|talk]]) 14:14, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
:It's not really a convention, or at the very least, not a huge one, because this site has used rounds before and I can see it just by searching final round and I'm not the one being petty because I just posted it without really considering it. So reverting it because finals have been used before, is actually the only petty act. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 15:04, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
::It's still edit warring, Playerking95. You've changed it three times. First after Upratik 12 originally added it, then by reverting it twice. You're being very self-centered, your way is the right way. That's not kosher... '''''DISCUSS''''' things.
::(Also, please keep in mind the {{bp|code of conduct}}. The last sentence of your response above at the very least pushes that line IMO.)
::Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:37, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
:::Okay, a couple of things. 1. There's been two reverts after I first posted that and the first post doesn't count. So the reverts are kind of even, but yet I'm the bad guy somehow. 2. So proving what I originally did wasn't petty and stating my opinion that the original revert was petty is wrong? I just don't understand, sorry. 3. I never said my way is always correct, otherwise I would alway revert edits that were reverts of my original edits and be changing every single edit to every single article that wasn't made by me, which I don't do. So saying that is a bit of an exaggeration and again I'm somehow painted as the bad guy.
:::This is a community and I'm not stopping other people from editing, I'm just saying that calling something a final round is pretty much the same thing as saying the finals (even though people could interpret the latter as multiple rounds), so there is no point in changing that when multiple tournaments and contests refer to the last round by both.

::::If calling something the final round is the same as the finals, and there is no point changing it, then why did you change it in the first place? That reasoning for you saying others who reverted you were wrong while not applying it to yourself is rather hypocritical.

:::::Re: 1: Please get this straight Playerking95: it doesn't matter whether the balance of reverts is even or uneven...AT ALL. Don't try to play that card. You reverted a change to what you wrote twice. (And your first change does "count" for something as well.)
:::::2: I'm talking about your attitude. I could be reading you wrong, but even if so, you could still stand to write yourself a good deal more neutrally.

::::::At ChE clarinetist: You really don't see the hypocrisy in what you just said? I'm not the one who changed it first, so I didn't start this and [b]I[/b] changed it back because there was no reason for the first change. I understand that I shouldn't have done as much reverting there, but the only reason I did so was because the first reverting was unnecessary and for me to leave the first change alone would have meant that I thought it was okay to let someone change something to something that means basically the same thing, and I don't think that, because this is ultimately about the principal of the matter. And the principal of the matter is, that it shouldn't have been changed in the first place. And also, not all of them have finals, because I have searched Bulbapedia.
::::::At Tiddlywinks: So it doesn't matter that other people also unfairly reverted it, especially when I didn't even do the first reverting and I only reverted it in the first place because I believed it was warranted, because the it was unnecessary to revert something to something else that is pretty much almost a carbon copy of what I just put there? And you don't see how I am the only "bad guy" here? The first one doesn't count, because I'm not talking about the first revert, I'm talking about when I first posted the edit that had the words "final round" in it, which I posted without any ill will or malice behind it.

::::::If I have an attitude, I'm sorry, but I'm just sick and tired of being targeted and made to feel bad for something that I did, because while I am aware that I shouldn't have reverted it a second time, I didn't think the first revert was something wrong. And that's because I was just sticking to the principal of the belief that I shouldn't let someone get away with changing something to something that it almost the same thing, which as I've said, seems IN MY OPINION, to be a bit petty and I'm sure you can see where I'm coming from.

::::::Again, I've said that I don't believe that way with what I've already said, so if you didn't read where I explained that, please read it and if you don't believe me, then that's up to you, but if what I say can't be trusted, then what's the point of saying anything? And I am not the only one reverting edits and I was certainly not the only one to revert my original edit on XY129, which was unnecessary, but it seems like I'm the only being attacked because of this. I have started a discussion before and the reason I might not like doing it every now and then, is because I'm just under the belief that once again, my side will be discounted and no one is going to agree with my point, so making a discussion will end up being redundant. But I'll make more of an effort to make a discussion in the future, but I just hope that my point will be taken into fair consideration.

::::::::::Playerking, the very first time something was put in about the finals/final round was by Upratik, using the term "finals". YOU were the first to make an edit that changed it from "finals" to "final round". Therefore, based on your argument, YOU were the one that made the "petty"edit to change it from one term to another that means the same thing. Also, if you have proof of some situations where "final round" is used, I'd love to see it please, as I posted evidence to support my reasoning of keeping to established conventions, where every page I looked at that dealt with league quarter-finals or higher used the "-finals" terminology, and even the Master Class episodes also used "semi-finals" and "finals". I did not see any in the seven pages I had looked at that used something based on "final round" except for "first round", which cannot be said any other way. [[User:ChE clarinetist|ChE clarinetist]] ([[User talk:ChE clarinetist|talk]]) 15:53, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::Actually no, that's not true. This is what happened: Upratik made an edit, which after looking at it, despite leaving out a thing or two, I did not have a problem with, but before I saw the edit, I made a similar edit to the page where I copy and pasted over a section of the article, without seeing Upratik's latest edit. And as I said, when I first wrote final round, there wasn't any malice towards it. So after final round was changed to finals, as it first was, without me originally knowing that I changed what was there, I thought that the revert was unnecessary. And it's not like other users haven't changed structured of sentences and paragraphs before and I just think it was a bit petty to just simply change final round to finals, when it means the same thing. And about other uses. Just search Final round on Bulbapedia, because there are definitely tournaments that use that term, including in the timeline of events in the anime article, where an episode of the Unova League mentions a final round. Now can we please just put this matter to rest, because I'm sure there are much better uses of our time then to argue about this.

== M19 Eruption ==

You say that this matter "was already settled", and apparently you think this move ''wasn't'' used. Where was this matter "settled"? It's on neither character's nor the move's talk page. How was I supposed to know about it in the first place? Also, I dare to respectfully disagree. To me, it clearly looked like Camerupt used Eruption in one scene. What do ''you'' think it was? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 05:19, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
:It's on my talk page, which 05308 brought up and it was also kind of settled in the revisions to eruption. It could be Eruption, it could be Lava Plume and heck, it could be Camerupt's way of using Flamethrower. It's too vague of a move to tell and Camerupt can probably do that without it being a move, because some Pokemon's unique attributes aren't always moves. I mean, are we going to say that Camerupt blowing smoke from its body is it using Smokescreen? No, because it can probably do that without it being a move and I kind of think that Camerupt can use Smokescreen. So as has been discussed here before, unless there's proof that it was ordered to use use the move, unless it most likely look like the move (if it can't be the case of the Pokemon just using one of its unique attributes), then it shouldn't be stated as such. I understand wanting to update when moves have been used, but this is speculation. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 05:27, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

== About unnecessary edits ==

I want to ask you to think very, very hard, whenever you see an edit that you think is "unnecessary"...about whether you really need to revert that edit. A ''harmful'' edit, like removing significant content without comment, should certainly be reverted. But if someone wants to reword something that's been written, then that really, really doesn't mean it '''''needs''''' to be reverted. If something is really the "[[Special:Diff/2481447|same thing]]", you really, really don't need to 'guard' the original wording (which often seems to be what ''you'' wrote, which adds a whole other layer to this). There is nothing sacred about what you or anyone else has written down once. It can be improved or changed, so long as it still works.

Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 13:24, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
:Okay then, then why can't I just re change every single article with different wording then since that's okay then? Because, there's no point in doing that. It's unnecessary because it's rewording to the exact same thing. And it's not because of what I wrote, so get that out of your head. It's because it was originally there and some of the wording doesn't need to be reworded and as I've said before, if you think it's because it was my rewording, then why don't I revert all the other changes that have been made to the things I've added? Hmm, maybe it's because I don't have problems with those. But I'll let you in on a little secret. What I do have problems with are annoying petty members who go around and change edits, which included making unnecessary changes to every little thing I add and thinking that they can get away with it. Just have a look at my recent additions to things in the last couple of weeks and you'll see that lots of them are changed by FinishPokefan or whoever he is and you're going to tell me that that's alright, even though he is targeting me by doing this? Well fine. Nice to know that I can add whatever I want here and it can be edited to something means the exact same thing, for no reason except for being a target.

Playerking95: your English is *not* perfect. GrammarFreak01's edits are not petty or trolling. (And please watch such comments. It was wholly unnecessary.) And editing basic format like indentation is perfectly acceptable.

Also: you cannot keep people out of talk page conversations, and it is ''not'' really kosher that you try to. You did it previously [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:Force_Fire#Request on Force Fire's talk page] on the Archives, as well as now on [[User talk:Force Fire#Request|Force Fire's talk page]] here. People are entirely welcome to contribute viewpoints on issues; especially ones explicitly involving them.

I was going to post this in a new section, but this has become a very relevant place for it. Before, I tried to take a generic tack in asking you to consider carefully what's "unnecessary", and about guarding your wording. But that didn't help very much. This time, I want to touch on each "unnecessary" edit you reverted.

* [[Special:Diff/2496919|On Takeru]]: wording like "to which Ash agreed to" is terribly clunky (not "fine") and does indeed deserve fixing. This was not an "unnecessary edit".
* [[Special:Diff/2496900|On Steven Stone]]: Just '''''not''''' worth quibbling over.
* [[Special:Diff/2496929|On Mairin]]: This is an awkward run-on. It absolutely deserves splitting into ''at least'' a couple sentences (and three works very fine).

Please understand, I'm not trying to attack you. I'm just trying to get through to you what sorts of things you should be leaving alone. I'm hoping you can learn and adapt. (Yes, I know you leave some edits alone. This is not about those; this is about the ones you think are "fine"...but which you are, to put it plainly, ''wrong'' about.)

[[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 10:05, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
:Except that it's not clunky, I'm find with a long sentence been turned into two and necessary edits like that, but lots of the other things are unnecessary and I'm not wrong about that because there is absolutely no reason to change those things. And the petty and trolling comments are fine, because that's the only reasons I can see as to why those edits happened, because rewording is stupid, not just for my edits, but for other edits that didn't need to be changed and since I was directing the conversation towards someone, I believe that I have a right to only talk to that person, because since this is apparently a "community", I should have the right to talk with who I want to and not be force to talk to those, especially when I'm direction a conversation towards someone and someone else interjects, who's opinion I'm not interested in on those respective matters. It just feels like there constantly keep being being big amount of unnecessary edits, usually with some necessary ones that I am fine with, yet that's okay, because when the original edits say pretty much the exact same thing, newer reworded edits are more important. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 10:46, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
::Your wording on Takeru '''''WAS''''' clunky. Period. ...I'm trying to inform you so you can be a better editor, but this hardheaded unwillingness to accept that you ''might'' be wrong is a terribly disappointing obstacle. ''Please'' accept that some people may actually know better than you, and try to take advice to heart.
::Do not try to tell me that accusations like "petty" and "trolling" are "fine". You presented the options: "Either you know English and therefore will understand that *I* am right, or you don't and therefore you can ONLY be doing this in bad faith". And ''that'', to vastly (vaaaastly) understate it, Playerking95, is not cool.
::Let me put it to you this way: if you only want to talk to Force Fire, then ''do that''. Ignore anyone else who responds.

== Helping ==

Excuse me, PlayerKing? Not trying to get involved and everything, but the only reason you're have problems because the users are giving you a hard time about your editing, right? Well, don't worry about it. I used to have the same problem, but at a different wikia website. So, don't get discouraged or unhappy about who did what or how they do it. Just do your best and double check your mistakes.--[[User:CoolPokeGuy|CoolPokéGuy]] ([[User talk:CoolPokeGuy|Talk]]) 16:41, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

== Wording ban ==

We have decided that your continued problems with reverting edits to wording, combined with your failure to show any satisfactory signs of listening to attempts at advice and warning, warrant a {{bp|Banning policy|ban}}. Until further notice, you are not permitted to revert any edits to wording. (If an edit is bad enough, someone else will surely get to it.) Disregarding this ban will result in more serious action being taken, such as a {{bp|Blocking policy|block}}.

Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 20:46, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

== Block ==

Hello. Due to your complete disregard to Tiddlywink's message above, the staff has decided to block you for one month. Next time, read your talk page messages and take your warnings seriously. Don't blatantly ignore them like you did yesterday. If you see an edit that you do not like, discuss it with the user that reverted you, do '''not''' go running for that undo button. Your habit of edit warring and your unwillingness to cooperate with other users will not be tolerated. Failure to comply after your block '''will''' lead to a far harsher punishment.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 16:33, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

== Recent Edits ==

I'm sorry about the recent edits I've done with placement for characters but isn't a named character more important than a Trainer Class that showed up?--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 12:56, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

::What do you mean? It's simple. The Team Flare characters are more important than Gym Leader's, especially when some have only appeared in a couple of episode, prior to this Team Flare incident and Gym Leader's and Champions would be more important than Trainer classes's, but Team Flare Grunts should go with the rest of the Team Flare members, because splitting them up would be weird. And Meyer/Blaziken mask has appeared more often than those characters as well. In XY001, XY002, XY009, XY066, XY068 and then in the Team Flare incident, he still appeared more often than the Gym leaders and about as much as Diantha. Other than that, they should be more important than any other characters, like characters of the day or unnamed characters. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 18:11, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
:::I am fine with everything about that except the Trainer Class part. Any named character is more important than them, because they are just unnamed extras. I understand it separates the group a little but if you are looking at characters by importance than a gym leader, rival, and even a recurring character like Keanan is more important.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 18:17, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
::::True, I agree, but separating them is like separating the Elite Four members with a Gym Leader, just because the Gym leader has appeared more than some of those Elite Four members. And even though they don't have names, they are apart of a named organisation that is prominent in the XY&Z part of the XY anime. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 18:21, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
:::::Still, they are unnamed extras. They should be below the others even if it does look a little strange. It's somewhat similar to how Clemont and Brock appear ahead of other Gym Leaders due to their increased importance.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 18:25, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
::::::But Brock and Clemont are more than just Gym Leaders, they're travelling companions that appear in almost every episode and while they were travelling, they technically weren't Gym Leaders, because they left that duty to others.

== Pre-airing assumptions ==

Hi. Can I ask that [[Special:Diff/2525361|this sort of thing]] not be done? To be clear, I'm not going to care about what people do on upcoming ''episode'' pages, but hiding assumptions on other pages about what ''might'' happen in an upcoming episode seems quite pointless. And your removal of your earlier edit to Fairy Aura points up the deep flaw of such assumptions. These things can easily be added '''once the episode airs'''. There's no great benefit to hiding it ahead of time. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:13, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
:Considering it looked exactly how it looked in M17, I don't see how it was much of an assumption, especially considering if Xerneas needed to use it in M17, why it also wouldn't need to use it in SS036, in which Xerneas was used as a similar plot device. And speaking of Xerneas, if Amoonguss isn't a big deal just because some people might not care enough to look hard enough and see it, then why not put Xerneas's appearance in the summer camp arc under minor appearances, since it could barely be seen as well and didn't appear for that long? The point is, just because things might not be easy to seen by some, Pokemon should be listed by importance and Amoonguss was used by an opponent that Astrid defeated in the Lumiose Conference, so I don't see how that's a minor appearance. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 17:19, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
::You can still add things ''once the episode airs'', IF they're needed. Just leave the pre-airing edits to the episode page. If you really want, put things in a personal text file or something so you can just copy them out if/when the episode has aired and you know they're needed.
::...Xerneas' "summer camp arc" appearance seems to be under the "Other" heading. Certainly not under "major". That's not strictly a logical comparison.
::If Astrid's battle was actually shown as a major part of the story (and the battle with Amoongus a nontrivial part of that as well), then Amoongus's appearance could have been major.

== Shell Trap ==

You know how this goes. Don't assume a move unless it was '''explicitly''' called out or it has a consistent and identifiable move animation. Shell Trap is a new move, so there's no consistent and identifiable animation for it, so we're going to rely on it being called out. As for what it could be? Any of the other shell moves. Also, "aggro" is short for aggressive.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:25, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:Okay, so if a Pokemon knew 2 moves, Hidden Power and Water Gun and the anime showed it using a water-esque move, you wouldn't say it was using Water Gun just because it was called out? Turtonator clearly used Shell Trap, if you read the moves description, look at the game's animation and look at the move it used in the anime. No other move fits the description of a Pokemon's back detonating after another Pokemon attacks with a physical move. There's being cautious and then there's being overcautious. And I know what THAT user meant, but "Agro" isn't "Aggro" and "Aggro" still isn't a word. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 05:33, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:Could've been Hydro Pump. Even if everything point to it being a move, we can't assume. The writers could easily make it a different move entirely because they can. Just like how they can just make Tierno's Raichu a female despite having the male variant tail.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:56, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:::Your reasoning for removing Eruption was that the Pokedex implies Camerupt can erupt without specifically using it, Turtonator's Sun Dex entry could also implies the material on its shell is explosive and will explode anyway. You cannot have it both ways, you are arguing against yourself; either we put Shell Trap AND Eruption back or we leave them both be. Also, and yes I cannot believe I have to explain this, aggro is a perfectly suitable abbreviation of "aggression" or "aggrevating", don't pretend you don't know what I meant.

::::@Force Fire: So, if a Pokemon can only know either Hidden Power or Water Gun and the Pokemon uses a move, which isn't said, there's a possibility that the Pokemon could have used a move that it doesn't know? Wow, I can be cautious, but that damn sure takes the cake when it comes to being overcautious.
::::@The other user: I also said that it could have been another move and it might not be it just using its natural ability to produce lava and there is no other move that fits the description for what Turtornator used. If you'd bother to actually read what I wrote, I did acknowledge what you said, I just also pointed out that what you said, was in fact, not REALLY a word and as an english speaker, I'm not too keen on using words that don't exist, especially words that aren't even abbreviations of existent words, like "agro". So, you really didn't have to explain anything.

:::::May I remind you that [[Anime move errors|this exists]], so yes, it can be a move that a Pokémon shouldn't be able to learn. Like I said, the writers can do anything, anime=/=games.

[[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 14:21, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
::::::Vine Whip has a unique animation, if a Pokemon uses a vine to attack the opponent, it's Vine Whip. If a Rhyhorn were to use Tackle but it wasn't said, we won't say it used Tackle, since the act of ramming your body into your opponent applies to countless other moves. Shell Smash will undoubtfully have a unique animation... but it's currently the first series in the generation it's introduced and has only been used once, it's far to early to see it and go "yep, that's Shell Smash's animation", especially if it wasn't called out.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 14:38, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

I know we're supposed to change a signature to unsigned if the user added it after the fact because it means the timestamp is wrong... but in both of those cases, the user went back and added the signature within the same minute of their original edit.

...being new and all, but around the 'pedia here, we have a policy about adding things to episode summary pages, that can be summed up in 5 words: '''''WAIT UNTIL THE EPISODE AIRS'''''. It helps keep speculation down, and also helps keep edit wars down, which are people constantly adding stuff that then needs to be removed.

== Episode article editing while airing ==

We would prefer it if you do not edit a page while the episode is still airing. If you ddo that, it'll just have to be edited again later resulting in multiple saves.

Also, when you do edit them, please remember to change '''everything''', not just to edit what Pokémon appeared and then leave it alone. There is still the matter of the tag been changed from Future episode to Undubbed episode and changing "this episode is scheduled to air" to "this episode first aired".

Nothing gets solved when you make edits without explaining why you made them. You have had this issue before. You need to use the edit summary box to explain what you are doing and why.

As for BW053, [http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/2312/416955969.jpg this scan shows that the Maractus episode airs on October 27th]. That would make it BW054. That is of course that you have something that shows that the Iris/Deino episode will not air on October 20th. If you do, please show it to me and I will make the changes accordingly.

Hello, over the past few days, you have been involved in several edit wars that have been largely disruptive to the editing process. As an experienced user, you should know that edit warring is against Bulbapedia's {{bp|Code of conduct}} and is unacceptable. Please use the talk pages to settle disputes and once a consensus is made, make edits then, not while the discussion is actively taking place. Due to the severity, you have been blocked for a week. Please keep our policies in mind once you return. Thank you. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 04:23, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

== Multiple undos ==

This may just be me, but I kind of think it's overkill (or something) to undo multiple revisions individually, and I've noticed you doing that a few times in the recent past. If you ask me, it's easier to just undo all of them at once. Often, you may just be able to click on the revision before the first edit you want to undo in the page's history and click "edit this page" from there and save it, but even if there's a "good" edit that came in later, it still shouldn't be ''too'' hard to just manually do all the revisions together. And you can just write something appropriate in the edit summary about how what you're doing is an undo/reversion.

...Just a tip, I guess. Cheers. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 05:13, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

== Moves ==

Could you please stop being stubborn and getting rid of moves Pokémon have used? Just because you can't tell what it is doesn't mean everyone can't. I also noticed you have been blocked for doing this really recently, so could you knock it off. Yes, I understand an admin told you it was okay to remove a few for ambiguity but that doesn't give you permission to get rid of everything that was not specifically stated. It is very obvious what the moves are and it is getting very annoying to watch you continue to mess with them. Multiple different uses have undone what you keep doing, while only you are fighting for it. Take a hint.--[[User:Pikablu|Pikablu]] ([[User talk:Pikablu|talk]]) 02:51, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

:Well, no, I just listened to what they said. I heard Bit say Old Man Don quite clearly and that's usually how you spell the name Don. There's a chance it could have been Dom, but Don is a more common name than Dom. As for Mira, it sounds like "My-Rer" but I looked up the name Mira and it the pronunciation can be "My-Rer" as well, so I assumed the dub just changed Mila to Mira.

If someone adds a dub name that has only been revealed on Pokémon.com and hasn't aired yet, it should be reverted back, it shouldn't continue being changed on all the other pages where it hasn't been changed yet. At this point in time, it's not relevant because the dub name for Puni-chan (Squishy), as well as the dub title for XY094 (''The Explosive Birth of Zygarde!'') is under dispute by Bulbapedia staff, however I'm just letting you know for the future. - '''[[User:PokémonGamer|Pokémon]][[User talk:PokémonGamer|Gamer]]'''[[Special:Contribs/PokémonGamer|*]] 03:20, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Because that edit summary was in breach of it. And honestly, that kind of behavior is rather arrogant.

First, please remind yourself of the Edit Warring rules. Continually reverting edits of a specific point is edit warring.
Second, take a look back through not just the couple of episodes before [[XY129]], but also back to [[DP188|other]] [[DP189|league]] [[AG131|episodes]] to see that the established convention is to use "quarter-finals", "semi-finals", and "finals". Reverting an edit just because you do not agree with following an established convention is, to quote your edit summary, "petty". [[User:ChE clarinetist|ChE clarinetist]] ([[User talk:ChE clarinetist|talk]]) 14:14, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
:It's not really a convention, or at the very least, not a huge one, because this site has used rounds before and I can see it just by searching final round and I'm not the one being petty because I just posted it without really considering it. So reverting it because finals have been used before, is actually the only petty act. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 15:04, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
::It's still edit warring, Playerking95. You've changed it three times. First after Upratik 12 originally added it, then by reverting it twice. You're being very self-centered, your way is the right way. That's not kosher... '''''DISCUSS''''' things.
::(Also, please keep in mind the {{bp|code of conduct}}. The last sentence of your response above at the very least pushes that line IMO.)
::Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:37, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
:::Okay, a couple of things. 1. There's been two reverts after I first posted that and the first post doesn't count. So the reverts are kind of even, but yet I'm the bad guy somehow. 2. So proving what I originally did wasn't petty and stating my opinion that the original revert was petty is wrong? I just don't understand, sorry. 3. I never said my way is always correct, otherwise I would alway revert edits that were reverts of my original edits and be changing every single edit to every single article that wasn't made by me, which I don't do. So saying that is a bit of an exaggeration and again I'm somehow painted as the bad guy.
:::This is a community and I'm not stopping other people from editing, I'm just saying that calling something a final round is pretty much the same thing as saying the finals (even though people could interpret the latter as multiple rounds), so there is no point in changing that when multiple tournaments and contests refer to the last round by both. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 16:29, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
::::If calling something the final round is the same as the finals, and there is no point changing it, then why did you change it in the first place? That reasoning for you saying others who reverted you were wrong while not applying it to yourself is rather hypocritical. Also, check the episode pages I linked, which include AG, DP, and XY articles that all use the terms based off of "finals" in the Major Events section as opposed to terms based off of "final round". [[User:ChE clarinetist|ChE clarinetist]] ([[User talk:ChE clarinetist|talk]]) 16:34, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
:::::Re: 1: Please get this straight Playerking95: it doesn't matter whether the balance of reverts is even or uneven...AT ALL. Don't try to play that card. You reverted a change to what you wrote twice. (And your first change does "count" for something as well.)
:::::2: I'm talking about your attitude. I could be reading you wrong, but even if so, you could still stand to write yourself a good deal more neutrally.
:::::3: You act like your way is correct, because you habitually fail to start a discussion and just go right for the revert. Even when it's started going back and forth already. Even when it really, ''really'' shouldn't matter, like here. If you're not stopping other people from editing, then try reasoning with them instead of reverting what they're ''trying to edit''.
:::::Please understand: that last is what I really want you to take away from this. Please ''try'' not to be so trigger happy with your reversions. If I can ask you anything...if you've reverted something once and you find yourself "needing" to revert it again...consider very hard the option of '''talking''' to the other person instead. You've almost never done this, and I've thought before that you should... Try it out. Please.

::::::At ChE clarinetist: You really don't see the hypocrisy in what you just said? I'm not the one who changed it first, so I didn't start this and [b]I[/b] changed it back because there was no reason for the first change. I understand that I shouldn't have done as much reverting there, but the only reason I did so was because the first reverting was unnecessary and for me to leave the first change alone would have meant that I thought it was okay to let someone change something to something that means basically the same thing, and I don't think that, because this is ultimately about the principal of the matter. And the principal of the matter is, that it shouldn't have been changed in the first place. And also, not all of them have finals, because I have searched Bulbapedia.
::::::At Tiddlywinks: So it doesn't matter that other people also unfairly reverted it, especially when I didn't even do the first reverting and I only reverted it in the first place because I believed it was warranted, because the it was unnecessary to revert something to something else that is pretty much almost a carbon copy of what I just put there? And you don't see how I am the only "bad guy" here? The first one doesn't count, because I'm not talking about the first revert, I'm talking about when I first posted the edit that had the words "final round" in it, which I posted without any ill will or malice behind it.

::::::If I have an attitude, I'm sorry, but I'm just sick and tired of being targeted and made to feel bad for something that I did, because while I am aware that I shouldn't have reverted it a second time, I didn't think the first revert was something wrong. And that's because I was just sticking to the principal of the belief that I shouldn't let someone get away with changing something to something that it almost the same thing, which as I've said, seems IN MY OPINION, to be a bit petty and I'm sure you can see where I'm coming from.

::::::Again, I've said that I don't believe that way with what I've already said, so if you didn't read where I explained that, please read it and if you don't believe me, then that's up to you, but if what I say can't be trusted, then what's the point of saying anything? And I am not the only one reverting edits and I was certainly not the only one to revert my original edit on XY129, which was unnecessary, but it seems like I'm the only being attacked because of this. I have started a discussion before and the reason I might not like doing it every now and then, is because I'm just under the belief that once again, my side will be discounted and no one is going to agree with my point, so making a discussion will end up being redundant. But I'll make more of an effort to make a discussion in the future, but I just hope that my point will be taken into fair consideration.

::::::::::Playerking, the very first time something was put in about the finals/final round was by Upratik, using the term "finals". YOU were the first to make an edit that changed it from "finals" to "final round". Therefore, based on your argument, YOU were the one that made the "petty"edit to change it from one term to another that means the same thing. Also, if you have proof of some situations where "final round" is used, I'd love to see it please, as I posted evidence to support my reasoning of keeping to established conventions, where every page I looked at that dealt with league quarter-finals or higher used the "-finals" terminology, and even the Master Class episodes also used "semi-finals" and "finals". I did not see any in the seven pages I had looked at that used something based on "final round" except for "first round", which cannot be said any other way. [[User:ChE clarinetist|ChE clarinetist]] ([[User talk:ChE clarinetist|talk]]) 15:53, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::Actually no, that's not true. This is what happened: Upratik made an edit, which after looking at it, despite leaving out a thing or two, I did not have a problem with, but before I saw the edit, I made a similar edit to the page where I copy and pasted over a section of the article, without seeing Upratik's latest edit. And as I said, when I first wrote final round, there wasn't any malice towards it. So after final round was changed to finals, as it first was, without me originally knowing that I changed what was there, I thought that the revert was unnecessary. And it's not like other users haven't changed structured of sentences and paragraphs before and I just think it was a bit petty to just simply change final round to finals, when it means the same thing. And about other uses. Just search Final round on Bulbapedia, because there are definitely tournaments that use that term, including in the timeline of events in the anime article, where an episode of the Unova League mentions a final round. Now can we please just put this matter to rest, because I'm sure there are much better uses of our time then to argue about this.

== M19 Eruption ==

You say that this matter "was already settled", and apparently you think this move ''wasn't'' used. Where was this matter "settled"? It's on neither character's nor the move's talk page. How was I supposed to know about it in the first place? Also, I dare to respectfully disagree. To me, it clearly looked like Camerupt used Eruption in one scene. What do ''you'' think it was? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 05:19, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
:It's on my talk page, which 05308 brought up and it was also kind of settled in the revisions to eruption. It could be Eruption, it could be Lava Plume and heck, it could be Camerupt's way of using Flamethrower. It's too vague of a move to tell and Camerupt can probably do that without it being a move, because some Pokemon's unique attributes aren't always moves. I mean, are we going to say that Camerupt blowing smoke from its body is it using Smokescreen? No, because it can probably do that without it being a move and I kind of think that Camerupt can use Smokescreen. So as has been discussed here before, unless there's proof that it was ordered to use use the move, unless it most likely look like the move (if it can't be the case of the Pokemon just using one of its unique attributes), then it shouldn't be stated as such. I understand wanting to update when moves have been used, but this is speculation. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 05:27, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

Since there isn't any strong proof that it's Eruption, then why don't we just edit the Lumiose Conference page to say that Ash will be the in his battle against Alain? Because there's no strong proof that he will win.
:::::At 05308: I'm not and if you think that, then you're wrong, but honestly, I don't care what you think. I'm not the only won who wants less speculation and more facts here, just like when the admins agreed that we don't exactly know what some of the moves that those Eeveelutions used in XY090 were.

== About unnecessary edits ==

I want to ask you to think very, very hard, whenever you see an edit that you think is "unnecessary"...about whether you really need to revert that edit. A ''harmful'' edit, like removing significant content without comment, should certainly be reverted. But if someone wants to reword something that's been written, then that really, really doesn't mean it '''''needs''''' to be reverted. If something is really the "[[Special:Diff/2481447|same thing]]", you really, really don't need to 'guard' the original wording (which often seems to be what ''you'' wrote, which adds a whole other layer to this). There is nothing sacred about what you or anyone else has written down once. It can be improved or changed, so long as it still works.

Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 13:24, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
:Okay then, then why can't I just re change every single article with different wording then since that's okay then? Because, there's no point in doing that. It's unnecessary because it's rewording to the exact same thing. And it's not because of what I wrote, so get that out of your head. It's because it was originally there and some of the wording doesn't need to be reworded and as I've said before, if you think it's because it was my rewording, then why don't I revert all the other changes that have been made to the things I've added? Hmm, maybe it's because I don't have problems with those. But I'll let you in on a little secret. What I do have problems with are annoying petty members who go around and change edits, which included making unnecessary changes to every little thing I add and thinking that they can get away with it. Just have a look at my recent additions to things in the last couple of weeks and you'll see that lots of them are changed by FinishPokefan or whoever he is and you're going to tell me that that's alright, even though he is targeting me by doing this? Well fine. Nice to know that I can add whatever I want here and it can be edited to something means the exact same thing, for no reason except for being a target.

:On the first post, they are not awkward and confusing and if you think they are, then maybe English isn't your native language and if that's the case, then I'm sorry, but this is a mainly english Pokemon encyclopaedia. All the rewording is basically unnecessary because it means the same thing and the things that were originally written were not ugly, they were easy to read and if english is your native language, then I can only suggest that you are trolling, because I don't know why else you think what were originally written by me and other uses is not as good as what you have written.

Playerking95: your English is *not* perfect. GrammarFreak01's edits are not petty or trolling. (And please watch such comments. It was wholly unnecessary.) And editing basic format like indentation is perfectly acceptable.

Also: you cannot keep people out of talk page conversations, and it is ''not'' really kosher that you try to. You did it previously [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:Force_Fire#Request on Force Fire's talk page] on the Archives, as well as now on [[User talk:Force Fire#Request|Force Fire's talk page]] here. People are entirely welcome to contribute viewpoints on issues; especially ones explicitly involving them.

I was going to post this in a new section, but this has become a very relevant place for it. Before, I tried to take a generic tack in asking you to consider carefully what's "unnecessary", and about guarding your wording. But that didn't help very much. This time, I want to touch on each "unnecessary" edit you reverted.

* [[Special:Diff/2496919|On Takeru]]: wording like "to which Ash agreed to" is terribly clunky (not "fine") and does indeed deserve fixing. This was not an "unnecessary edit".
* [[Special:Diff/2496900|On Steven Stone]]: Just '''''not''''' worth quibbling over.
* [[Special:Diff/2496929|On Mairin]]: This is an awkward run-on. It absolutely deserves splitting into ''at least'' a couple sentences (and three works very fine).

Please understand, I'm not trying to attack you. I'm just trying to get through to you what sorts of things you should be leaving alone. I'm hoping you can learn and adapt. (Yes, I know you leave some edits alone. This is not about those; this is about the ones you think are "fine"...but which you are, to put it plainly, ''wrong'' about.)

:Except that it's not clunky, I'm find with a long sentence been turned into two and necessary edits like that, but lots of the other things are unnecessary and I'm not wrong about that because there is absolutely no reason to change those things. And the petty and trolling comments are fine, because that's the only reasons I can see as to why those edits happened, because rewording is stupid, not just for my edits, but for other edits that didn't need to be changed and since I was directing the conversation towards someone, I believe that I have a right to only talk to that person, because since this is apparently a "community", I should have the right to talk with who I want to and not be force to talk to those, especially when I'm direction a conversation towards someone and someone else interjects, who's opinion I'm not interested in on those respective matters. It just feels like there constantly keep being being big amount of unnecessary edits, usually with some necessary ones that I am fine with, yet that's okay, because when the original edits say pretty much the exact same thing, newer reworded edits are more important.

::What do you mean? It's simple.

And Meyer/Blaziken mask has appeared more often than those characters as well. In XY001, XY002, XY009, XY066, XY068 and then in the Team Flare incident, he still appeared more often than the Gym leaders and about as much as Diantha. Other than that, they should be more important than any other characters, like characters of the day or unnamed characters. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 18:11, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
:::I am fine with everything about that except the Trainer Class part. Any named character is more important than them, because they are just unnamed extras. I understand it separates the group a little but if you are looking at characters by importance than a gym leader, rival, and even a recurring character like Keanan is more important.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 18:17, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
::::True, I agree, but separating them is like separating the Elite Four members with a Gym Leader, just because the Gym leader has appeared more than some of those Elite Four members. And even though they don't have names, they are apart of a named organisation that is prominent in the XY&Z part of the XY anime. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 18:21, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
:::::Still, they are unnamed extras. They should be below the others even if it does look a little strange. It's somewhat similar to how Clemont and Brock appear ahead of other Gym Leaders due to their increased importance.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 18:25, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
::::::But Brock and Clemont are more than just Gym Leaders, they're travelling companions that appear in almost every episode and while they were travelling, they technically weren't Gym Leaders, because they left that duty to others. You can ask Carmenstar97 if you can split the nameless characters and named characters up, but still, it looks out of place. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]])

== Pre-airing assumptions ==

Hi. Can I ask that [[Special:Diff/2525361|this sort of thing]] not be done? To be clear, I'm not going to care about what people do on upcoming ''episode'' pages, but hiding assumptions on other pages about what ''might'' happen in an upcoming episode seems quite pointless. And your removal of your earlier edit to Fairy Aura points up the deep flaw of such assumptions. These things can easily be added '''once the episode airs'''. There's no great benefit to hiding it ahead of time. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:13, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
:Considering it looked exactly how it looked in M17, I don't see how it was much of an assumption, especially considering if Xerneas needed to use it in M17, why it also wouldn't need to use it in SS036, in which Xerneas was used as a similar plot device. And speaking of Xerneas, if Amoonguss isn't a big deal just because some people might not care enough to look hard enough and see it, then why not put Xerneas's appearance in the summer camp arc under minor appearances, since it could barely be seen as well and didn't appear for that long? The point is, just because things might not be easy to seen by some, Pokemon should be listed by importance and Amoonguss was used by an opponent that Astrid defeated in the Lumiose Conference, so I don't see how that's a minor appearance. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 17:19, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
::You can still add things ''once the episode airs'', IF they're needed. Just leave the pre-airing edits to the episode page. If you really want, put things in a personal text file or something so you can just copy them out if/when the episode has aired and you know they're needed.
::...Xerneas' "summer camp arc" appearance seems to be under the "Other" heading. Certainly not under "major". That's not strictly a logical comparison.
::If Astrid's battle was actually shown as a major part of the story (and the battle with Amoongus a nontrivial part of that as well), then Amoongus's appearance could have been major. It wasn't. ...''At all''. (The end.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:35, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

== Shell Trap ==

You know how this goes. Don't assume a move unless it was '''explicitly''' called out or it has a consistent and identifiable move animation. Shell Trap is a new move, so there's no consistent and identifiable animation for it, so we're going to rely on it being called out. As for what it could be? Any of the other shell moves. Also, "aggro" is short for aggressive.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:25, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:Okay, so if a Pokemon knew 2 moves, Hidden Power and Water Gun and the anime showed it using a water-esque move, you wouldn't say it was using Water Gun just because it was called out? Turtonator clearly used Shell Trap, if you read the moves description, look at the game's animation and look at the move it used in the anime. No other move fits the description of a Pokemon's back detonating after another Pokemon attacks with a physical move. There's being cautious and then there's being overcautious. And I know what THAT user meant, but "Agro" isn't "Aggro" and "Aggro" still isn't a word. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 05:33, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:Could've been Hydro Pump. Even if everything point to it being a move, we can't assume. The writers could easily make it a different move entirely because they can. Just like how they can just make Tierno's Raichu a female despite having the male variant tail.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:56, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:::Your reasoning for removing Eruption was that the Pokedex implies Camerupt can erupt without specifically using it, Turtonator's Sun Dex entry could also implies the material on its shell is explosive and will explode anyway. You cannot have it both ways, you are arguing against yourself; either we put Shell Trap AND Eruption back or we leave them both be. Also, and yes I cannot believe I have to explain this, aggro is a perfectly suitable abbreviation of "aggression" or "aggrevating", don't pretend you don't know what I meant. [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 09:10, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
::::@Force Fire: So, if a Pokemon can only know either Hidden Power or Water Gun and the Pokemon uses a move, which isn't said, there's a possibility that the Pokemon could have used a move that it doesn't know? Wow, I can be cautious, but that damn sure takes the cake when it comes to being overcautious.
::::@The other user: I also said that it could have been another move and it might not be it just using its natural ability to produce lava and there is no other move that fits the description for what Turtornator used. If you'd bother to actually read what I wrote, I did acknowledge what you said, I just also pointed out that what you said, was in fact, not REALLY a word and as an english speaker, I'm not too keen on using words that don't exist, especially words that aren't even abbreviations of existent words, like "agro". So, you really didn't have to explain anything. And finally, please don't go whining to a mod about something, so that they can take care of it for you and then come here an harass me again, because that is incredibly childish. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 11:00, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::May I remind you that [[Anime move errors|this exists]], so yes, it can be a move that a Pokémon shouldn't be able to learn. Like I said, the writers can do anything, anime=/=games. Also, 05308 brings up a good point, if the Sun entry says that it explodes when struck, then it could just be Turtonator naturally reacting to be hit with a contact move not the actual move.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 11:45, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::So, if say, Cilan never commanded his Pansage to use Vine Whip, you wouldn't add it, because it could be what, Razor Leaf? Grass Knot? And I'm pretty sure summaries like that are referencing the move, like other Pokedex entries do, especially in the first generation. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 14:21, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
::::::Vine Whip has a unique animation, if a Pokemon uses a vine to attack the opponent, it's Vine Whip. If a Rhyhorn were to use Tackle but it wasn't said, we won't say it used Tackle, since the act of ramming your body into your opponent applies to countless other moves. Shell Smash will undoubtfully have a unique animation... but it's currently the first series in the generation it's introduced and has only been used once, it's far to early to see it and go "yep, that's Shell Smash's animation", especially if it wasn't called out.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 14:38, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
::::::Playerking95, might I remind you that you have challenged me over Vine Whip in the past so it isn't the best example for you to use. I am only reminding you of the arbitry rule that you imposed on the rest of us. I call an admin because you are not likely to listen to a user with no more authority than yourself. I suppose the reason I'm compelled to join the conversation myself is when I see you refer to me as "THAT user" and "The other user" which I think is childish passive aggresion.

You know what, never mind, it's probably not important, but by the way you worded it, it seems like think I lost that argument, but I'm pretty sure if I did, I would remember that. I didn't impose any rule, so settle down. I'm only going by Bulapedia's rules of being cautious, which I'm fine with, in most instances. Also, a couple more things, you butted in before I said that and I said that because I don't know your username and I'm not going to look up a bunch of random numbers, when I do have other things I need to do. And I was talking about the fact that it seems pretty childish to go running to a mod, one who you know I don't get along with and then come here to gang up after he messages me, which as I've said before, happened before I said "The other user" or whatever I said.

Hey, just a quick question about [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Talk:Red_(game)&diff=prev&oldid=2602885 this edit] and [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Force_Fire&diff=prev&oldid=2602893 this one]. I know we're supposed to change a signature to unsigned if the user added it after the fact because it means the timestamp is wrong... but in both of those cases, the user went back and added the signature within the same minute of their original edit.

== Burmy ==

I should've explained myself better, but that's quite hard in the edit box! My intention was not "wormy" as in "worm-like", but as in "infested with and home of a worm". Wormy could also mean weak and untrustworthy (as in Burmy being the first stage of evolution, and weak), but I imagine it as in Burmy burrowing into nearby materials to create a cloak. I will to defer to you though, as I do not intend an edit war, and these name origin sections are quite subjective also, so my opinion does not automatically trump yours.
While we are at it though, do you know what is meant by "brr" or "burr"? I imagine "brr" is because it wears a cloak so that it doesn't get cold, but that might be stretching the name origin thing. As for "burr", I don't know... it is not made of metal, and as far as I can tell, it is not known to stick to passersby, like the velcro burdock plant. With that one I feel like I'm missing something... -[[User:Uncleben85|Uncleben85]] ([[User talk:Uncleben85|talk]]) 06:28, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
:I'm not really convinced by either "infested with worms," "home of a worm," or "weak and untrustworthy." I prefer to err on the side of excluding tenuous origins. For that matter, I don't really like "brr" or "burr" either, so I wouldn't argue if you wanted to get rid of them — I left them mostly out of inertia. As for what's meant by them, the talk page has some discussion, [[Talk:Burmy#Brr, Bur and Burr|including in this section]]. I don't find the arguments there very convincing, but it is what it is.

I am pretty sure that images, depictions, and/or pictures do count as minor appearances. In Mew's page, two minor appearances are images. One appearance is a picture of Mew in a magazine, and another appearance is an image of Mew on a computer screen.

You may remember one of the top teams in the Battle of Alola included the combination of Skarmory, Toxapex, and Blissey. In the Battle of Alola, the same Trainer once again finished near the top of the field, this time combining Skarmory, Toxapex, and Blissey’s previous evolution, Chansey. While none of these Pokémon are heavy hitters, they could slowly deal damage with Toxic, Toxic Spikes, and Stealth Rock while using Recover, Roost, and Soft-Boiled to stay healthy. These Pokémon were joined by a Tapu Bulu that knew both Leech Seed and Substitute, a tricky Pokémon to take down for opponents using similarly defensive teams."

(Nintendo, PGL. "A Look Back at the Alola Friendly.")

So it basically is a SkarmBliss setup with a Toxapex with Recover combined with a Subseeder Tapu Bulu. ([[User:PlatinumPokenut|PlatinumPokenut]] ([[User talk:PlatinumPokenut|talk]]) 13:32, 5 March 2017 (UTC))
:Nowhere in there does it use the word "Skarmpexey". You made that up. ''That'''s what I was saying. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:15, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

== A bit late, but... ==

Why did you delete my origin for Nihilego? Nihil (nothing) + ego (refers to Freud's psychological ego, which is the rational decision making part of the psyche) refers to how Nihil has no ego, and only has an id (the survival and instinctual part of the psyche, which obviously relates to Nihilego. --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 13:12, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
:Ah, I misinterpreted what you wrote. The previous name origin was structured as "[ nihil (nothing) + ego (I) ] or ego (psyche)", so I had that on my brain and didn't realize yours was intended to be structured as "nihil (nothing) + [ ego (I) or ego (psyche) ]". Because of this, I didn't realize you meant "nihil (nothing) + ego (psyche) = only an id"; I took it simply as "ego (psyche) = close enough to id". Yeah, that was my bad. If you change it back, though, can you try to make the structure clearer? [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:00, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
::Yeah, sure. These things happen and I should've worded it better. --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 16:32, 7 March 2017 (UTC)

== Rowlet is Moses ==

Why do you keep removing a clear reference to a famous literary work?!--[[User:Arisboch|Arisboch]] ([[User talk:Arisboch|talk]]) 19:44, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
:I have only removed it once, and I removed it only to enforce our policy against edit warring. When I asked you to discuss it, I meant discuss it with the person who originally removed it. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 19:45, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

'''Tsareena''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アマージョ''' ''Amajo'') is a {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Steenee}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Stomp}}. It is the final form of {{p|Bounsweet}}.

==Biology==
Tsareena is a bipedal, plant-like Pokémon with a humanoid appearance. Its torso, arms, and legs are dark purple, while its hips and head are white. On top of its head is a light green {{wp|sepal|calyx}}. The shortest leaf of the calyx extends slightly forward and then curves to the right, similar to {{wp|bangs (hair)|bangs}}. The other three leaves resemble long hair extending nearly to the ground and have many yellowish-green markings. On top of the calyx is a growth resembling a small, purple crown with four thin yellow stripes. It has heavy-lidded, dark purple eyes with purple eyelids and long eyelashes, but has no visible mouth or nose. The lower part of its face is hidden behind a short ruff extending up from its body. While its arms are slender with rounded, digit-less hands, it has long, powerful legs. The upper portions of its legs have three pointed projections just before the hips, creating the impression of long boots. The lower portion tapers to its small, pointed feet. It has wide hips made up of six segments.

This Pokémon has a high-class nature, and punishes anyone that approaches it with evil in mind. This attitude will even be directed at its Trainer if given commands Tsareena dislikes, such as being told to use an ineffective move. In battle, it attacks using finely honed kicking skills and graceful movements. Additionally, its fragrance acts as distraction in battle. Touching the crown-like growth on its head is said to render it defenseless, however. Because only the most powerful {{p|Steenee}} evolve into Tsareena, this Pokémon uses its power to protect its pre-evolutions.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/tsareena/</ref>

==Trivia==
* Tsareena and its {{p|Bounsweet|evolutionary}} {{p|Steenee|relatives}} share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Tropius}}. They are all known as the Fruit Pokémon.

===Origin===
Tsareena appears to be based on a {{wp|mangosteen}} and a female {{wp|monarch}}, such as a queen. It may also be a reference to the mangosteen being known as the "Queen of Fruit".

====Name origin====
Tsareena may be a combination of ''tsarica'', a Russian female monarch, and ''serene''. It may also incorporate ''mangosteen'' and ''queen''.

Amajo may be a combination of 甘い ''amai'' (sweet) and 女王 ''joō'' (queen).

'''Tsareena''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アマージョ''' ''Amajo'') is a {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Steenee}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Stomp}}. It is the final form of {{p|Bounsweet}}.

==Biology==
Tsareena is a bipedal, plant-like Pokémon with a humanoid appearance. Its torso, arms, and legs are dark purple, while its hips and head are white. On top of its head is a light green {{wp|sepal|calyx}}. The shortest leaf of the calyx extends slightly forward and then curves to the right, similar to {{wp|bangs (hair)|bangs}}. The other three leaves resemble long hair extending nearly to the ground and have many yellowish-green markings. On top of the calyx is a growth resembling a small, purple crown with four thin yellow stripes. It has heavy-lidded, dark purple eyes with purple eyelids and long eyelashes, but has no visible mouth or nose. The lower part of its face is hidden behind a short ruff extending up from its body. While its arms are slender with rounded, digit-less hands, it has long, powerful legs. The upper portions of its legs have three pointed projections just before the hips, creating the impression of long boots. The lower portion tapers to its small, pointed feet. It has wide hips made up of six segments.

This Pokémon has a high-class nature, and punishes anyone that approaches it with evil in mind. This attitude will even be directed at its Trainer if given commands Tsareena dislikes, such as being told to use an ineffective move. In battle, it attacks using finely honed kicking skills and graceful movements. Additionally, its fragrance acts as distraction in battle. Touching the crown-like growth on its head is said to render it defenseless, however. Because only the most powerful {{p|Steenee}} evolve into Tsareena, this Pokémon uses its power to protect its pre-evolutions.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/tsareena/</ref>

==Trivia==
* Tsareena and its {{p|Bounsweet|evolutionary}} {{p|Steenee|relatives}} share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Tropius}}. They are all known as the Fruit Pokémon.

===Origin===
Tsareena appears to be based on a {{wp|mangosteen}} and a female {{wp|monarch}}, such as a queen. It may also be a reference to the mangosteen being known as the "Queen of Fruit".

====Name origin====
Tsareena may be a combination of ''tsarina'', a Russian female monarch, and ''serene''. It may also incorporate ''mangosteen'' and ''queen''.

Amajo may be a combination of 甘い ''amai'' (sweet) and 女王 ''joō'' (queen).

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules:
* Be nice to everyone. It's in the {{bp|code of conduct}}.
* Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around.
* Use {{bp|wikicode}} and {{bp|link templates}} when adding content to a page.
* Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the {{bp|manual of style}}.
* You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the {{bp|userspace policy}}.
* Use {{bp|Talk page policy|talk pages}} to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
* If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our {{bp|FAQ}}. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The {{bp|staff}} won't bite.
* Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
* For more handy links, see the {{bp|welcome|welcome portal}}.

== Crustle and Dig ==

Just because [[Cilan's Crustle]] burrowed into the ground does not always mean that it used {{m|Dig}}. For an analogy: a ton of Flying types were seen flying in various media, but that's because they can fly naturally, not because they know the move Fly. Instead of adding it back and sparking an edit war, try bringing it up on the article's Talk Page instead. Thank you. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 17:39, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

== Tracey's Marill ==

Please don't add back the Fairy typing on Tracey's Marill. Because it hasn't appeared since the Fairy type has been revealed, it does not need to be changed. --[[User:Funktastic~!|'''It's''' '''Funktastic~!''']][[User talk:Funktastic~!|''話してください'']] 22:38, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

== Edit warring ==

Hello, I've noticed that you've been constantly re-adding content that has been removed several times by staff and other editors in general. This is considered edit warring, which is a {{bp|Blocking policy|blockable offense}} on Bulbapedia. Because of the amount of times you've already been edit warring today, continuing to edit war without discussion will lead to a temporary block from editing. Please keep this in mind during the future. Thank you. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 22:49, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

== Jessie's Woobat ==

Please do not remove the notice about the Woobat trivia. It is there to warn users not to add it because it is unnotable. Also, please do not revert a user (especially an admin), if you disagree with the reversion bring it up to the talk page of the article. Thank you for reading.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 02:50, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

== Fairy-type Pokemon on move pages ==

Please be more careful when you're adding the Fairy type to Pokemon on move pages. If the subsection (usually tutored or event moves) does not cover Generation VI, the Pokemon should not be listed as Fairy-type, since they ''weren't'' at any point that the subsection covers. It's the same reason that, above, Funktastic asked you not to change Tracey's Marill to Fairy-type. Thanks for your understanding. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 17:38, 24 December 2013 (UTC)
==Userspace limits==
Hi. I noticed you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot recently. Please don't do it any more, though. Bulbapedia's {{bp|Userspace policy}} restricts the amount you can edit your userpage: no more than three edits per day and make sure you contribute to our {{bp|mainspace}} more than your userspace. This policy was instated to promote people helping out in the mainspace, and also to control strain on our server. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so help us out by contributing to some articles before coming back to your personal userpage. The more often you edit in the mainspace, the more you will be allowed to edit your userpage. Thanks! --'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 18:02, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
==Hold on!==
If you did not read your last warning, then please read it now. You have edited the <code>User:</code> namespace too much. In the past, no one was allowed to edit their userpages because some users were over-editing their own userpages. Your personal editing privileges can be taken away, so please do not edit your page any more for now. Instead, how about helping contribute to some of Bulbapedia's [[Special:Random|many articles]]? Thank you. --'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 18:21, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

I did see it. I stopped as soon as I did.[[User:Rahl|Chy-i]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 01:15, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

== Your userpage ==

I noticed you copied it from my userpage, so when did you copy it, and if you don't know, I'll contact an active admin. --[[User:Cinday123|Cinday123]] ''([[User talk:Cinday123|Talk]])'' 03:51, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
I did it a few weeks ago. I'm sorry if its a problem I will change it if immediately.[[User:Rahl|Chy-i]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 14:16, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

==Talk Page Comments==
Removing talk page comments, including the initial welcome template, is prohibited per Bulbapedia's {{bp|talk page policy}}. Please do not remove any comments in the future. If you wish to clean old comments away, you should archive your talk page instead. Thank you! --[[User:Funktastic~!|'''It's''' '''Funktastic~!''']][[User talk:Funktastic~!|''話してください'']] 21:42, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for the info, will not happen again.[[User:Rahl|Chy-i]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 21:47, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

== EP017 ==

Like the trivia said, they were implied to be male because of the pronouns they used that are commonly used by males. This does not mean that it is a straight up confirmation of their gender. I don't know if the staff of the past had any discussions about this, but seeing as how they've never added the gender and stuck it in the trivia, I'm guessing that they didn't count the implications as their genders being confirmed.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:13, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

== Far-reaching changes ==

If you want to make a structural edit that will affect a wide range of pages, as you did to many Trainers' Pokemon in the anime recently, it's usually best to suggest it on a talk page first rather than just do it, so you can get feedback on whether it's a good idea. That way, you don't waste your time making a bunch of edits that get undone, and somebody else doesn't waste their time undoing all those edits. Thanks! [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 21:13, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

== Userspace pages ==

Make sure when you're making templates or any type of userspace pages, you start the page with User:Rahl/ , or otherwise you'll make the page in the mainspace where it doesn't belong. I've moved your [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User:Rahl/Gym_Leader_Pokemon_Template page] for you. --[[User:Funktastic~!|'''It's''' '''Funktastic~!''']][[User talk:Funktastic~!|''話してください'']] 20:02, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

Thank you. I didn't know how to fix it.[[User:Rahl|Chy-i]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 20:52, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

== Abuse ==

Due to your numerous edits to your Gym Leader user page today, your userspace privileges have been revoked. You edited the page '''16''' times even though you're allowed to make only three userspace edits per day (provided that you've made four mainspace edits). And while the EB may give special permissions if the page in question is intended for mainspace, your page looks more like personal stuff just for fun.

You can request an admin to give you your rights back if you think you've redeemed yourself by being helpful on the mainspace.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 17:56, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

== Your Gym Leader userpage ==

I had to go through and remove some redlinks on that page, as they have appeared in the Wanted pages. There were also some redirects, but it's mostly redlinks. Be sure to check to see if you intend to create links to pages that do not exist. If the page in question will exist later on, that's fine, but if not, either remove them or replace the link with one to a relevant page that does exist. Also, try not to get the templates {{template|color}} and {{template|color2}} confused: the latter creates a link in that color, while the former just colors the text. Just letting you know. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 01:35, 30 June 2014 (UTC)

Anime ≠ Games. In the anime, Pokémon have been able to use more that 4 moves at once in one episode, like [[Ash's Kingler]] and [[Misty's Gyarados]] and [[Misty's Luvdisc|Caserin]]. Also, In ''[[BW067|Cilan Takes Flight]]'', [[Cilan's Pansage]] still knew {{m|Bite}} even when in earlier episodes, he used {{m|Bullet Seed}}, {{m|Solar Beam}}, {{m|Dig}} and {{m|Rock Tomb}}. --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 05:46, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

While that has happened, Fletchinder has only been seen using Flame Charge. Since it learned a new move it more than likely lost one of those four moves. As soon as it is seen using them then it can be added.[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 01:18, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

I usually leave Pikachu alone. I don't care for all the screen time he gets and writing about Pikachu's "glorious" gym battles just aggravates me and causes me to oppinionate what I write.

If you feel it deserves an article, create it in your userspace, not the mainspace.

I'm only going to say this once, the moves are only marked as recent if it used them in its most recent appearance.

On [[Clair's Dragonair]] and other similar pages, sections such as "Personality and characteristics" and "Moves used" belong under the section it refers to, being "In the anime", unless the personality and characteristics and moves used apply in all other canons on the page. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 00:50, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

== Ash's Fletchinder ==

I was wondering why you deleted my part in the trivia about Ash's Fletchinder being his first Pokemon to purposefully use its ability outside of battle. Did another of his Pokemon do it before him? [[User:Srushj11|Srushj11]] ([[User talk:Srushj11|talk]]) 03:56, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Yes Buizel used it outside of battle at some point in Sinnoh. I believe I mentioned Buizel in the comment when I removed it. [[User:Rahl|Rahl]] 12:22, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

No, Buizel use in battles the first one was in Third gym battle and second time was in battle against Mr. Mine.--[[User:SilverioFlame|SilverioBOMB ]] ([[User talk:SilverioFlame|talk]]) 07:17, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

== Question ==

I don't understand why you removed the information about Pokémon living in the Gym from the Gym pages. I saw your edit summary, but why shouldn't the information be there? I can't see why it should be restricted to Pokémon used in Gym battles. Personally, I think it makes more sense to change the heading to simply "Pokémon" and then make the clarification about ones that were used in Gym battles and the others that have only been seen residing in the Gym.

I was not the one who ended up deciding that. It was being changed when I started adding that to pages a while ago. [[User:Rahl|Rahl]] 16:51, 23 June 2015 (UTC)

==Moves improvised==
Hi there! Thank you for all your help with the "Moves improvised" section. I was planning on getting screenshots for all of the combinations but I can be very lazy sometimes. It would take a while for me to get the images I needed and the ones you uploaded are just great. Thank you! ;)

On a related note, I removed the name field because there are only a few combinations that ended up getting names in the anime, such as Dragon Formation (Drew's Flygon's Dragon Breath + Drew's Absol's Razor Cut), which Lilian even called "Dragon Razor Wind" because she felt like giving a name for a combination that already had one. :'D But anyway, I don't think we should have a field for things like "Bubble-Swift combination", it's not official, it's just too obvious, and the moves involved are there for this exact purpose. Thanks again, your help is really appreciated! --[[User:Mikuri|'''Mi''']][[User talk: Mikuri|'''ku''']][[Special:Contributions/Mikuri|'''ri''']] 01:13, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes.

: Because it is a page for everything about Ash's Talonflame. By your logic we should get rid of all its information as a Fletchling because it evolved.

Why is Olympia's Meowstic using Psychic without her saying to do so not an error?

:Actually if you watch and listen to the battle only one command was given; Happy was told to use Sleep Powder. Every other move was done without the Trainer telling them. Pokémon use moves without being told to all the time. It's not like they can't unless the Trainer commands it.

Just letting you know that the [[Bulbapedia:Manual of style/Manga|Manual of Style]] prohibits the adding of Pokémon moves on here unless it was called out by name first.

== Pokémon articles ==

Some advice, if you wanted an article from your userspace to be mainspaced, you can ask an admin to take care of the redirects blocking the move instead of transferring content from the userspace to the redirect in particular, provided that the userspace articles were approved first. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 04:45, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

== Mainspacing articles ==

Firstly, do not move a page from your userspace to the mainspace without staff approval. You were warned similarly above with Clemont's Magneton. Just because you haven't received a response from someone you have asked to review your pages, that does not mean it is okay for you to move your pages anyway. If you must, either ask again or ask someone else, but do not take the decision into your own hands.

Secondly, as Pattyman said above, copy and pasting your article over an existing redirect is not the proper way to accomplish a move. If a redirect is in the way, please leave it to staff members to move.

== Block ==

I have told you, multiple times, not to add moves that weren't used. As such, you have been blocked. Manga is a visual medium. If you cannot see a move being used, then you do not have the authority to add information about it to a page. Neither Quick Attack or Swift were actually used on panel. Even if you didn't know that, you still shouldn't have assumed they were used in the first place. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 16:35, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

The only exception is if the talk page in question is linking to a red link showing up on the [[Special:WantedPages|wanted pages]] or to an [[a:Special:GloballyWantedFiles|image that doesn't exist]].

== Genderless Pokémon ==

I saw that the anime's Pokémon's gender who were normally genderless in the games were changed to genderless in the infobox. Did you have a source stating that the Pokémon were confirmed to not have a gender as games=/=anime and {{OBP|Keldeo|M15}} being male proves that normally genderless Pokémon can be male or female? If I remember correctly, only [[Professor Oak's Rotom]] was stated to not have a gender instead of the other Pokémon. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 16:21, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

== Blocked again. ==

OK. I have been patient. Too patient, it seems. You have been warned no less than four times on this very page about not adding moves that have not been called out. Despite these warnings and numerous reverts and image deletions, you have continued to do so. As such, you have been blocked for a second time for this. If you continue to ignore this warning again, it will be permanent. Now please, listen to what people ask of you. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 01:53, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

== Adding pictures. ==

Please, just because an image has been uploaded does not mean it needs to be added to an article immediately. I have spent the last few hours editing X's history section so I can add that image, because if I didn't, then the image would have no context towards it. After if there's no context, then the image shouldn't be there yet as it'll confuse people reading the article. In the future, assume that if a user uploads an image, that they are planning to use it somewhere. So it's not necessary to add it to the article before them. Thank you. {{unsigned|Ataro}} 20:54, 25 September 2016 (UTC)

==Adventures pokemon debut section==
Ok just so that an edit war won't start, I will compromise. I'm alright with putting the owner's name beside the pokemon if it's their pokemon that debuted as the first individual of a species whole. However the Adventures manga isn't like the main series anime, although yes they are both the longest in their form of media (anime and manga respectively), that doesn't mean they have the same debut section format. In addition the anime series goes on with a single main character, being Ash, that goes through each region seemingly without a consistent timeline (being that he's still 10 by BW series despite the obvious amount of time he should have aged a bit), while in Adventures they follow different main character(s) for each arc and there is a consistent timeline (each event actually confirmed with taking years or so between each arc).[[User:Animaltamer7|Animaltamer7]]12:57, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

== Anime Pokemon nav templates ==

I'm gonna parrot {{u|Carmenstar97}}'s advice from another user's talk page here, but I think it's very reasonable advice: templates for anime characters' Pokémon should not be created unless at least two Pokémon belonging to that character have their own pages.

In the aired episodes, it seems like Lillie currently has ''no'' Pokemon with their own pages. Even giving you the benefit of the doubt with the Lillie's Vulpix page that was created, that's still only one. Therefore, I've moved the template you created to [[User:Rahl/Lillie's Pokémon]].

Ataro. Could you please explain to me why I am blocked. I was adding links to pages and had no idea that you would not approve of the pages. You could simply message me and say something like "those pages are not official/wanted/going to stay so stop editing them". As soon as I noticed I started to undo my edits to fix the mistakes I made. Blocking me for adding information that was there and needed links discourages me and others from editing.

:You were blocked partially because I wanted to make sure I could revert all those edits before you or someone else added more. I did not see you reverting your edits until it was already too late. My apologies. Also, a word of warning: if you see someone like Pikablu make edits like that, don't just blindly add the pages to articles. Consult them with a higher up.

==Simplification==
Shouldn't this article be simplified? It says "If the Pokémon is traded or transferred to another game, its nickname cannot be changed unless it is traded back to its Original Trainer.", which could be shortened to something like "A Pokémon's nickname can only be changed by its OT." Additionally, shouldn't the name rater's location and purpose be discussed here? --[[User:ZellMurasame|ZellMurasame]] 22:49, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Is the TV show in R/S/E really aired after every Pokémon is nicknamed? In my experience, the show only airs if you change a Pokémon's name with the Name Rater. [[User:Taromon777|'''T a r o m o n''']] 17:55, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

==Nicknames in Battle Videos==
Based on the small blurb about Tits the Staraptor, I did a test. It seems like the nicknames in Battle Videos are only reverted if you upload them to the GTS.

To test this, I gave three Pokes vulgar nicknames (e.g. tits, bitch) and recorded a Battle Tower battle. When I viewed the Battle Video, the nicknames stayed the same. However, when I uploaded the video to the GTS and watched it on the server, the nicknames were reverted. I'm not surprised, since it's similar to PBR's nickname reverting in Random Battles.

Anyone got any more info, or can I clarify this in the article? [[User:MagicBarrier|MagicBarrier]] 03:25, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

== Available characters ==

On the Japanese wiki they list which characters may be used in nicknames in the different generations. I thought maybe it would be interesting to do a comparison too, and possibly compare the character sets to that of other language versions. (like ü, ö, ß, etc in German and é, ç, à, etc in French version)

In 2nd generation (checked on Pokémon Gold):
:upper: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ -?!/.,(A-Z, space, hyphen, question mark, exclamation mark, backslash, full stop, comma)
:lower: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz ×():;[]PKMN (a-z, space, multiplication sign, round bracket open, round bracket close, colon, semicolon, square bracket open, square bracket close, poké sign, mon sign)

In 3rd generation (checked on Pokémon Ruby)
:upper: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ ., (A-Z, space, full stop, comma)
:lower: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz ., (a-z, space, full stop, comma)
:others: 0123456789 !?♂♀/-..“”‘’ (0-9, space, exclamation mark, question mark, male sign, female sign, backslash, hyphen, double full stop, double quotation mark open, double quotation mark close, single quotation mark open, single quotation mark close.)

I can't find my 1st generation game right now. These where checked on European English versions as sold in the Netherlands, to be exact. --[[User:Spenvdm|Spenvdm]] 11:19, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

== Giratina in Platinum ==

Should it be noted that in Platinum if you catch Giratina in the Distortion World and nickname it, Cynthia will mention it by its nickname rather than species when you return? {{Unsigned|KinCryos}}

== GTS limits ==

If you try and put an unnicknamed Weedle on the GTS in Gen V it doesn't let you (I've tested this and it's true). I've heard this is because the name recognises "Weed" as an offensive word, however the Gen V GTS let me put a Turtwig named "SHIT" (transferred from Gen IV) up with no problems. Even though "SHIT" is a black listed nickname in BW (I've tested this too). Is it that Weedle can't be put up due to the name "Weed" being offensive, or is there some other reason? If it is because of "Weed", why was I allowed to put "SHIT" up? (It was for scientific purposes only and I took the Turtwig back from the GTS, so no 10 year old is gonna end up with it and get banned from pokémon by their parents) [[User:Jmvb|Jmvb]] 13:30, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
:Perhaps there is another abnormality on that Weedle? Try breeding it and offering its baby. The nickname filter doesn't stop you from entering "weed" as a nickname. The GTS filter which caused similar problems for {{p|Cofagrigus}} was removed, so this shouldn't be an issue. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:45, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

== Nosepass/Probopass issue ==

I think it's worth noting that Nosepass and Probopass can't be loaded into the GTS for Black and White due the nickname sensor picking them up as offensive. --[[User:KingStarscream|KingStarscream]] 20:04, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

Shouldn't there be a list of nicknamed Pokemon? Canon ones, of course, not just anyone's Pokemon.

The picture still looks like a Bidoof being named "Buck", not a Patrat being named "Lookout"... Can anyone fix this? [[User:ShinyMew9001|ShinyMew9001]] ([[User talk:ShinyMew9001|talk]]) 22:14, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
:Yes. The person who can fix this is called Time. Try hitting Ctrl F5. If that doesn't work, wait. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 22:29, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

== About gen VI ==

Shouldn't there be a section or even a mention of the Nickname system in Pokemon X or Y? Like how the nickname limit's been changed or something? ★☆[[User:Togetic45|'''Toge''']][[User talk:Togetic45|'''tic''']][[Special:Contributions/Togetic45|'''45''']]☆★ 10:59, 4 December 2013 (UTC)

:I think there should be. [[User:AwesomeGrovyle|AwesomeGrovyle]] ([[User talk:AwesomeGrovyle|talk]]) 03:10, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

::How about the fact that the player themself gains a nickname in X & Y? I assume there should at least be a mention of this. -[[User:Shockthetoast|Shockthetoast]] ([[User talk:Shockthetoast|talk]]) 06:29, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

==Split==
In theory, this article should be about the names assigned to Pokémon only. However, recently, information about naming the player and similar concepts has been added. While understandable, since nickname and player name text entry is almost the same, I think the best solution would be to split that content to its own page and have this page once again be exclusively about names assigned to Pokémon. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 02:53, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

== Creative abuse of nicknames in connection with Pokemon GO's appraisal function ==

Should I mention the tendency of Pokemon GO user to give their Pokémon weird or obscene nicknames and through that, let the team leaders say obscene or weid things? It was a quite the meme when the appraisal system way released.--[[User:Arisboch|Arisboch]] ([[User talk:Arisboch|talk]]) 03:43, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

== Lillie and Rockruff ==

Is it worth mentioning in this episode that Lillie was seen sitting right next to Professor Kukui's Rockruff despite her phobia of touching Pokémon? --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 20:29, 26 January 2017 (UTC)
:Nah, it's been shown on several occasions that she doesn't mind being near Pokemon, especially when she stands near her classmates and some of them have their main Pokemon with them. Plus, there's that time she went to see that Butterfree that visited her house. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 06:32, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

== Mimikyu - Wood Hammer ==

Would it be appropriate to mention "Mimikyu was revealed to know Wood Hammer" as this wasn't specifically called out in the episode.
Mimikyu's final attack, just before being grabbed by Bewear appears to be Wood Hammer. {{unsigned|AnexasBlack}}
:[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Talk:Jessie's_Mimikyu#Wood_Hammer Unfortunately, no]. And even if it was confirmed to be Wood Hammer, Mimikyu already used the move back in its debut.

(Japanese: '''出るかZワザ！大試練への挑戦！！''' ''Will the Z-Move Work! Face the Grand Trial!!'') is the tenth episode of the {{series|Sun & Moon}}, and the 949th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on January 12, 2017.
{{spoilers}}


==Plot==
At [[Professor Kukui]]'s house, {{Ash}} is serving {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Professor Kukui|Rockruff}} some [[Pokémon food]], as Kukui, reading a newspaper, notices an article about Ash's [[SM009|previous day's achievement]]. [[Rotom Pokédex|Rotom]] starts reading the article out loud, informing everyone in the room that Ash is due to receive a certificate from [[Officer Jenny]] as a recognition of his work. Just then the doorbell rings, and Ash rushes to open the door. Opening the door, he comes face to face with Officer Jenny and {{TP|Officer Jenny|Gumshoos}}. She thanks Ash for helping her find a partner for herself, and Rotom states that Gumshoos is a perfect Pokémon to be Jenny's partner. As Ash is due to have his [[Island challenge|grand trial]] against [[Hala]] later that day, Jenny offers to drive Ash and Kukui to [[Iki Town]], which they gladly accept. Kukui then reminds that Jenny also had another reason to come, and she, reminded of the fact, hands Ash the certificate promised to him.

Later in Iki Town, Officer Jenny departs to continue her duties, while Ash and Hala are praying for {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Koko}}'s blessing for their upcoming battle at the [[Ruins of Conflict]]. Ash is getting uncomfortable for having to keep sitting still, but eventually Hala tells that they're done here. Ash asks if Tapu Koko heard them, and Hala answers that it's not certain, as Tapu Koko is a very fickle creature. Just then, the two hear Tapu Koko's cry echo from afar, confirming that it had been listening to them.

Back in Iki Town, Professor Kukui asks Ash if he remembers how to do the {{type|Normal}} [[Z-Move]] pose, and Ash assures him that he has practiced it well enough to remember it. Kukui also warns Ash that a Z-Move can only be used once per battle, meaning that the moment to use it must be chosen carefully. With technicalities out of the way, Kukui takes his position as the [[Battle judge|referee]] of the grand trial battle. As the battle is about to begin, Ash sends out {{AP|Rowlet}}, which Rotom is surprised to see being wide awake when coming out of its [[Poké Ball]]. Hala sends out his own Pokémon, a {{p|Crabrawler}}, which Rotom gives Ash information about, not forgetting to mention that since Rowlet is a {{t|Flying}} Pokémon, it has a type advantage over the {{type|Fighting}} Crabrawler. Crabrawler starts the battle with a {{m|Bubble Beam}}, which Rowlet avoids before countering with a {{m|Peck}} attack, dealing {{DL|Damage|super effective}} damage on its opponent. Ash orders Rowlet to use Peck again, but Crabrawler manages to grab Rowlet before the attack can connect. By Hala's command, the Boxing Pokémon then uses {{m|Brutal Swing}}, sending Rowlet flying into the air, where it then gets struck by a powerful {{m|Power-Up Punch}}. Rotom is worried about Rowlet having taken a lot of damage, while Kukui comments how Hala's Crabrawler is just as strong as ever.

Up in the air, Rowlet manages to get itself back together, and Ash tells it to use {{m|Leafage}}, which, much to Ash's shock, gets completely blocked by Crabrawler's Bubble Beam. While Ash marvels his opponent's strength, Rowlet suddenly sneaks up behind him, causing Ash to jump. This, however, gives him an idea, and he tells Rowlet to use Leafage and sneak up behind Crabrawler. The tactic succeeds, allowing Rowlet to land a surprising Peck attack on Crabrawler. A flurry of more Pecks follows, Crabrawler being unable to dodge any of them. Finally Hala calls Crabrawler to block Rowlet's attack with its pincer, allowing it to land a Power-Up Punch with the other pincer. Hala follows up with a command for Brutal Swing, but Rowlet manages to avoid the attack and strike back with {{m|Tackle}}, sending Crabrawler slamming into the ground and causing it to [[Fainting|faint]]. As Hala [[recall]]s Crabrawler, Ash and his partners congratulate Rowlet on its victory. Suddenly Rowlet starts snoring, and Rotom, upon closer inspection, informs Ash that Rowlet has fallen asleep and is now sleep-flying. While Ash, Pikachu, and Rotom attempt to wake Rowlet up, Hala calls his {{p|Hariyama}} to the battlefield. All attempts to wake up the tuckered-out Rowlet fail, leaving Ash with no choice but to recall it. Rotom provides Ash with basic information about Hariyama, mentioning that it's able to send a {{tt|10-ton|about 22000 pounds}} truck flying with a single punch, which is equal to the weight of 1667 {{p|Pikachu}}.

Both Pikachu and Hariyama prepare for battle. Ash takes the initiative by having Pikachu use {{m|Iron Tail}}, but Hariyama counters with {{m|Fake Out}}, grabbing Pikachu by the tail and stopping the attack. Hala continues by having Hariyama use {{m|Knock Off}}, which sends Pikachu straight into the ground. As Kukui compliments on Hala's combination attack, Ash has Pikachu use {{m|Electro Ball}}, but the attack is stopped by Hariyama's {{m|Arm Thrust}}, which then proceeds to repeatedly strike Pikachu, dealing a lot of damage on the Mouse Pokémon. Finally Ash finds an opening, and has Pikachu slip past Hariyama before counterattacking with {{m|Thunderbolt}}. However, even though the attack makes a clean hit, it doesn't seem to hurt Hariyama too much. Ash is getting nervous, thinking about using his Z-Move, but he also acknowledges the fact that he only has one shot at using it. Hala then commands Hariyama to use {{m|Belly Drum}}, which Kukui considers to be a ruthless move on Hala's part, as it increases the user's {{stat|Attack}} power to its maximum, but also takes away half of their health. With the power-up complete, Hala prepares to use his own Z-Move, striking up synchronized poses with Hariyama as energy flows from his [[Z-Crystal]] to his Pokémon. Ash tells Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}} to avoid the upcoming attack, just as Hala and Hariyama unleash the Fighting-type Z-Move: {{m|All-Out Pummeling}}. Pikachu does his best to avoid the Z-Move, but is ultimately hit, sending him flying backwards. Despite this powerful hit, however, Pikachu is still capable of getting back to his feet, impressing Hala, who says that he should've expected as much from someone whom Tapu Koko has taken interest in.

Ash, following his usual attitude, isn't giving up, and has Pikachu charge at Hariyama with Quick Attack and run around the Arm Thrust Pokémon. While Hariyama is unable to get a clear fix on Pikachu, Ash has Pikachu use Iron Tail, striking Hariyama on the leg and causing it to fall on its knee. Seizing the chance, Ash and Pikachu prepare to use their own Z-Move, striking up their well-practiced and well-synchronized poses, causing Ash's {{DL|Z-Crystal|Normalium Z}} to glow and charge Pikachu up with Z-Power. Feeling the power that connects him and Pikachu, Ash has Pikachu unleash its Normal-type Z-Move: {{m|Breakneck Blitz}}. The powerful attack hits Hariyama head-on, sending the huge Pokémon flying out of the field. While Ash and Pikachu celebrate successfully using their Z-Move, Kukui sees that Hariyama has fainted, making Ash the winner of the battle. After recalling his defeated Pokémon, Hala turns to Ash, congratulating him and his Pokémon on the well-fought battle and the joyful way he used the Z-Move. As the Kahuna of Melemele Island, Hala declares Ash having passed his grand trial, which Kukui decides to hold a celebration for. Hala reaches inside his sleeve and presents Ash with a {{DL|Z-Crystal|Fightinium Z}} as a reward for defeating him. Ash thanks Hala for his gift, but just as he reaches out to take the Z-Crystal, a cry echoes across the landscape, and something blindingly fast swooshes by them. Kukui wonders if it was Tapu Koko, which is quickly confirmed as it turns out that the Fightinium Z on Hala's palm has been replaced with an {{DL|Z-Crystal|Electrium Z}}. Surprisingly, Hala bursts out laughing, saying that it's extremely peculiar for Tapu Koko to take interest in a challenger like this. He wonders if there ever will be a time when he'll understand its reasons, but nevertheless, he then hands Ash the Electrium Z, which the young Trainer gladly accepts. Hala then turns to Professor Kukui, asking if he could join the planned celebration, which Kukui is happy to let him do. Ash asks if he could invite {{ashfr}} to the celebration as well, as it was thanks to them that he was able to get his Z-Crystal in the first place. Hala thinks it's a great idea, and tells Ash to feel free to invite his friends to join them.

Later that night, Ash, his classmates, Kukui, Hala, Officer Jenny, and their Pokémon all join together in a feast to celebrate Ash passing the grand trial. While the feast is going on, Ash and Pikachu walk away from the crowd. Ash, looking at his new Electrium Z shining in the moonlight, thanks Tapu Koko for watching over his grand trial, and promises to show it a successful {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}} the next time they battle.

List of recurring wild Pokémon in the animated series

2017-03-08T23:54:25Z

Arisboch: /* Bewear */ He saves them from blasting off

{{split|their own articles}}
Several [[wild Pokémon]] had a recurring role in the [[Pokémon anime]].

==[[Original series]]==
===Fearow===
[[File:Ash Fearow.png|thumb|200px|Fearow]]
{{main|Ash's Fearow#In the anime|Ash's Fearow}}

Fearow's first appearance was the [[EP001|first episode of the anime]], where it appeared as a {{p|Spearow}}. It attacked Ash and Pikachu after Ash threw a rock at it. Its second and final appearance was in ''[[EP081|Pallet Party Panic]]'', where it was shown to have evolved into a Fearow. It battled against Ash's Pidgeotto, who soon evolved into a {{AP|Pidgeot}}, Ash attempted to capture the Fearow while riding on Pidgeot's back. Despite its weakened state, he was still unable to capture it, and left Pidgeot behind to guard against any future attacks. It was seen in a flashback in ''[[EP131|Fighting Flyer with Fire]]''.
{{-}}
===Ho-Oh===
[[File:Ho-Oh M20.png|thumb|200px|Ho-Oh]]
{{main|Ho-Oh (anime)}}
The second recurring wild Pokémon in the anime, and the one that made three appearances.

After Ash and Pikachu were exhausted from fighting a flock of Spearow, Ash saw a glimpse of Ho-Oh flying over a rainbow. The Pokédex couldn't record the data of Ho-Oh as it was unknown at the time. Since then, it would often fly around.
{{-}}

===Haunter===
[[File:Sabrina Haunter.png|thumb|200px|Haunter]]
{{main|Sabrina's Haunter}}
Haunter first appeared in ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]''. After {{Ash}} befriended it, he attempted to use it to battle [[Sabrina]], but Haunter decided to goof off. At the end of ''[[EP024|Haunter Versus Kadabra]]'', {{TP|Sabrina|Haunter}} decided to stay with Sabrina.
{{-}}
===Jigglypuff===
[[File:Jigglypuff anime.png|thumb|200px|Jigglypuff]]
{{main|Jigglypuff (anime)}}
The fourth recurring wild Pokémon in the anime, and the one that made the most appearances, is {{an|Jigglypuff}}.

Jigglypuff's first appearance was in ''[[EP045|The Song of Jigglypuff]]''. At first it couldn't {{m|sing}}, but that changed once {{an|Brock}} gave it a piece of fruit which soothed its throat. Jigglypuff followed the gang throughout their journey until the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. It set a goal to accomplish what it had failed to in the first episode: to have someone listen to its song in its entirety without falling asleep.

Jigglypuff is perhaps best known, however, for its running gag. Whenever it saw that its song put its listeners to sleep, it would inflate angrily, making a distinctive "honk" sound, then doodle over the faces of its audience with its marker.
{{-}}

===Slowking===
[[File:Slowking M02.png|thumb|250px|Slowking]]
{{main|Slowking (M02)}}
This {{pkmn2|talking}} Slowking lived on [[Shamouti Island]], and was the guardian of the shrine located on the island. He gave {{Ash}} advice on where to find the Ice, Thunder and Fire Spheres. He later praised the [[Team Rocket trio]], upset that no-one saw them being heroes, telling them that their heroic actions [[Breaking the fourth wall|did not go unnoticed]].

Slowking reappeared in [[Slowking's Day]].

{{p|Suicune}} first appeared in the anime in the episode ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile]]'' as a form of energy. When {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} were lost in a forest, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} sensed something and led the trio to a lake. Suicune was standing on a small island in the lake. At first, Ash did not understand what Pokémon it was and wanted to capture it. However, Suicune ran away towards the direction of [[New Bark Town]] as soon as Ash made an attempt to {{pkmn|battle}} it. Ash and group chased it to New Bark from where they began their [[Johto]] [[S03|adventure]].

Suicune appeared once again in the episode, ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!]]''. After {{TRT}} had removed a [[Clear Bell|Crystal Bell]] from {{Ci|Ecruteak}}'s [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]], many {{type|Bug}} Pokémon invaded the city. They wrapped [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in a web by using {{m|String Shot}} and blocked off the entry to the Tin Tower. The bugs even attacked Ash, Misty, Brock, [[Morty]] and [[Eusine]] when they wanted to go to the Tin Tower. Suicune appeared, calming down the Pokémon and freeing the Rocket trio as well as the city from the webs of the bugs. Eusine wanted to capture Suicune and sent out his {{p|Alakazam}} to battle it. Alakazam used a {{m|Disable}}, but Suicune easily blocked it with a {{m|Mirror Coat}}. It then used {{m|Roar}} to send Alakazam back into its [[Poké Ball]] and fled from the place before Eusine could even react.

====Personality and characteristics====
Suicune was a calm Pokémon as shown as it didn't get angry at anyone who tried to battle or capture it.

{{main|Pichu Brothers}}
The {{p|Pichu}} Brothers were first introduced in the third mini-movie ''[[PK07|Pikachu & Pichu]]'', where they met [[Ash's Pikachu]] who was lost after falling off a nearby building, in which {{Ash}} was planning a party celebrating the anniversary of [[EP001|when he and Pikachu first met]]. Pikachu and the Pichu Brothers went all throughout the town chased by a {{p|Houndour}} who eventually helped them when the local Pokémon Playhouse was collapsing.

They also have a number of friends living in [[Big Town]] that regularly take part in their adventures. They have all made appearances in various side story episodes, as well as a cameo at the beginning of ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', and the gang have also received their own game for the [[Pokémon mini]], [[Pichu Bros. mini]].

Lugia first appeared in ''[[EP210|Around the Whirlpool]]'' as a silhouette swimming underwater. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} who were clinging on their Pokémon, as they were being dragged into a whirlpool (after another mishap involving {{TRT}}), when it suddenly disappeared, which was followed by Lugia's mysterious silhouette and its strange call.

In ''[[EP220|The Mystery is History]]'', it appeared when [[Oliver]], Ash, and his friends were playing with the child Lugia, {{jo|Silver}}. Lugia and Silver played with the group underwater.

In ''[[EP221|A Parent Trapped!]]'', Lugia looked for the child after it was told that it was kidnapped by some members of Team Rocket. Lugia became enraged after finding out what happened until Ash mentioned that the group will find and rescue Silver. When Lugia found Silver in a cage, it went for the cage. Despite the group warning Lugia not to get closer, the parent Lugia was caught alongside its child.

In ''[[EP222|A Promise is a Promise]]'', Lugia was taken captive to Team Rocket's base. [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} attempt to free it until they got interrupted by [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]]. Their battle accidentally freed the adult Lugia and it went on a rampage until it reunited with Silver. Although doing so, pieces of the ceiling were falling down and Lugia protected Silver and the group with {{m|Safeguard}}. After escaping from Team Rocket's base, Silver stayed with the adult Lugia with Oliver saying goodbye to them both.

====Personality and characteristics====
Lugia is very protective of its {{jo|Silver|child}}, as shown when people it hasn't seen before were near it. Following Team Rocket's attack, Lugia and Silver left, with Silver having to separate from Oliver.

{{p|Wynaut}} is a wild Pokémon who followed {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and {{TRT}} around in [[Blackthorn City]]. Even though it followed them everywhere, [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]], [[Ash's Bayleef]] and {{AP|Noctowl}} were the only ones to see it.

Wynaut first appeared in ''[[EP252|Fangs for Nothin']]'' where it was briefly seen taking some food from Team Rocket. Wobbuffet only saw it doing so.

In ''[[EP253|Great Bowls of Fire]]'', Wynaut popped its arm out of the bushes while Ash, {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, [[Clair]], and {{jo|Liza}} returned to the [[Blackthorn Gym]] for Ash's Gym battle.

While [[Charla]] was about to eat some {{pkmn|food}} in ''[[EP254|Better Eight Than Never]]'', Liza provided to her, Wynaut quickly snatched the food from Charla, unbeknownst to her.

In ''[[EP255|Why? Wynaut!]]''. While Team Rocket were spying on Ash and his friends, Wynaut sneaked over and took their snack, putting the blame on Wobbuffet. Wynaut went for Ash's [[Badge]]s but Wobbuffet caught Wynaut this time. However, despite doing so, it was unable to tell Team Rocket that Wynaut took the badges. Later, Wynaut met Ash's Bayleef and Noctowl while they were searching for Ash's stolen badges. After finishing the berries Wynaut found, Wynaut went back inside a bush. When Team Rocket attacked {{p|Wooper}} and Bayleef, Wynaut jumped out and {{m|counter}}ed {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}'s {{m|Poison Sting}} and went back hiding in the bush. After defeating Team Rocket, Wynaut found the Rising Badge that Ash needed and gave it to Bayleef secretly. Wynaut left before Ash found out.

====Personality and characteristics====
Wynaut had a tendency to pop up out of nowhere at random moments, especially in its final appearance ''[[EP255|Why? Wynaut!]]'' when it popped out of nowhere and took the case containing Ash's badges (which Team Rocket had stolen from him) away from {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} who was guarding the case while its teammates were away. Wobbuffet was very confused and startled to see Wynaut, and panicked even more once Wynaut took the case away just as its teammates came back.

Later on in the episode after the case got open and the badges went all over the place, Ash and his friends as well as {{AP|Noctowl}} and {{AP|Bayleef}} searched everywhere for the badges. At first they found seven of them, and then Noctowl and Bayleef set out to find the one they had missed, and that's when they saw Wynaut who gave the badge to them, and then Bayleef called to Ash and gave him back his badge and he thanked her and asked her if it had just been lying on the ground. Bayleef tried to explain to her trainer about Wynaut, but it was already gone, causing both Bayleef and Noctowl to become confused, so Wynaut has a tendency to appear out of nowhere when a Pokémon is nearby and then disappear when people come around, showing that there's a possibility Wynaut either doesn't want to be seen by humans, or just likes playing a little joke leaving those who did see it very confused.

{{p|Loudred}} first appeared in ''[[AG022|A Hole Lotta Trouble]]'', where it ran by and stepped on [[Jessie]] when she was climbing up to the next floor or [[Granite Cave]]. In the [[AG023|next episode]], Jessie fell on top of it while it was sleeping when she hastily ran to catch [[Ash's Corphish|whatever was attacking]] {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. Loudred then sent her, [[James]] and {{MTR}} flying with an extremely loud {{m|Screech}} attack.

It reappeared again in ''[[AG026|Turning Over a Nuzleaf]]'', where it was pinched on the ear by Ash's Corphish. Loudred ran around in pain, screeching, causing the {{TP|May|Silcoon}} to fall from {{an|May}}'s arms and roll off, separating it and the other Pokémon that went to its rescue to become separated from their Trainers. Loudred's last appearance was in ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme!]]'' where [[Professor Birch]] fell from a {{p|Wingull}}'s nest on to it, waking it from its sleep. Loudred screeched at him before leaving.

It appeared in a flashback in ''[[AG066|Exploud and Clear!]]''.

====Personality and characteristics====
Loudred does not like to be disturbed while it's sleeping, which it does most of the time, and this could mean that it's a lazy Pokémon. If it gets disturbed while it's sleeping, it'll become very angry and chase after the person or people that woke it up.

{{p|Spoink}} first appeared in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]''. It had lost its pearl, and {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were trying to find it. As it turns out, {{TRT}} had found it and had traded it to the [[Magikarp salesman]] for a {{DL|List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio|Magikarp}}. After learning this, the travelers confronted the salesman and demanded he give back the pearl. Team Rocket also demanded he give them the pearl back as well. In the ensuing battle, Spoink's pearl was returned and Team Rocket was sent blasting off.

It made its second, and final, appearance in ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom]]''. Like the previous time, it had lost its pearl. This time, it was lost in the ocean without any way of retrieving it. But the travelers learned from a scientist named [[Isaiah]] that Spoink's pearls come from {{p|Clamperl}}. Eventually, they found a Clamperl who was willing to give its pearl to Spoink. They said goodbye to Spoink, and it hasn't been seen since that episode.

====Personality and characteristics====
After losing its pearl, Spoink has a habit of using {{m|Psychic}} to move any round objects (and after a while, even not-so-round objects) on its head, including an angry {{p|Electrode}}, much to the dismay of those around it. It developed a friendship with [[Ash's Torkoal]] during its adventures with the group.

{{p|Groudon}} first appeared in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' sleeping in its containment chamber.

In ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', {{AP|Pikachu}}, who became possessed by the Blue Orb, awakened Groudon. It broke out of the chamber and destroyed Team Aqua's ship. Groudon nullified Kyogre's Drizzle with its own Ability, {{a|Drought}}. Groudon fought Kyogre in the ocean. Because of Brock and May's interference with Kyogre, Groudon was able to defeat Kyogre with {{m|Solar Beam}}. After the Blue and Red Orbs went in the sky, Groudon went back in a volcano.

====Personality and characteristics====
Groudon's personality is unknown as it was only seen awakened once. However, Groudon may be somewhat helpful, as it awoke in order to stop Kyogre from drowning Monsu Island into the sea.

[[File:Kyogre Drizzle.png|thumb|left|200px|Activating {{a|Drizzle}}]]
{{p|Kyogre}} first appeared in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' sleeping in the containment room of Team Magma's ship. It was freed by [[Shelly]] who infiltrated the ship in disguise as a member of Team Magma. After being freed, Kyogre escaped Team Magma's ship and destroyed it with {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Kyogre was later seen sleeping in its containment chamber on Team Aqua's ship. Kyogre once again escaped after {{TRT}} failed to catch it with their net electrified.

In ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', Kyogre was out in the ocean near [[Monsu Island]] where its appearance caused a {{a|Drizzle|heavy downpour}} and strong winds. Using the Red Orb, Archie took control of Kyogre where he had it attack [[Lance's Dragonite]] which Dragonite narrowly dodged the attack and then fought [[Red Gyarados|Gyarados]]. After Groudon appeared which nullified the weather, Kyogre fought Groudon. Because of the interference with [[May's Beautifly]] and [[Brock's Mudkip]], Kyogre was defeated by Groudon's {{m|Solar Beam}} which separated the orbs from Archie and {{AP|Pikachu}}. Despite Archie being saved by Dragonite, Pikachu fell in the ocean and Kyogre, released from the Red Orb, swam underwater to rescue both {{Ash}} and Pikachu. Kyogre resurfaced with the two and both the Blue and Red Orbs went in the sky. With that done, Kyogre returned deep in the ocean.

====Personality and characteristics====
Kyogre's personality is unknown as it was only seen under the control of Archie. However, it is shown to be immensely powerful, causing large storms and almost able to drown [[Monsu Island]]. However, outside of Archie's control, it was shown to save Ash and Pikachu from drowning, which may suggest that it is somewhat helpful.

{{p|Deoxys}} first appeared in ''[[AG171|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys' Crisis! (Part 1)]]'' where it emerged from a portal in the sky. As [[Max]] saw Deoxys, he experienced a vision as soon as it went back into a portal.

Later, [[Solana]] investigated a cave as it was where the source of the geomagnetic disturbances that have been going on. She went on her own originally but ended up allowing {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} to tag along since she spotted [[Max]] behind some bushes. At the end of the cave, Deoxys emerged from a portal above a meteorite. It ended up battling Ash, his friends, and Solana. Solana tried capturing Deoxys with her [[Capture Styler]] but failed as it had to be in Normal Forme. Everyone finds out from {{MTR}} that Deoxys was in pain. Max climbed up the meteorite with Meowth and Deoxys up there. Deoxys creates a {{m|Safeguard}} around it, Max, and Meowth. Max found out that during the space flight, it was cold and scared. Deoxys then took the two to [[Deoxys's unnamed world|its world]].

In ''[[AG172|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys' Crisis! (Part 2)]]'', Deoxys continued telling Max its story. After Ash and the others returned to the cave, Deoxys came out of its world. Everyone evacuated the cave as the meteorite was overloading with energy while Deoxys went back in its dimension. Deoxys emerged from the portal with Max and Meowth still inside. The group had another battle with it in an attempt for Solana to recatch it. During the battle, Meowth and Max were able to escape the alternate dimension. {{AP|Sceptile}} battled Deoxys to get it to change into Normal Forme. Solana used her Capture Styler to capture Deoxys as it was in its Normal Forme and succeeded. Solana has it use {{m|Recover}} to heal itself and then protects the group from the meteorite's strong blast of energy. With the disturbance gone, Deoxys leaves, hoping to visit the planet even more.

Mesprit itself appeared in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', where it, along with Uxie, came to [[Lake Valor]] after Azelf was captured. However, it was also captured by [[J]] and [[Team Galactic]], but before it was captured, it used {{m|Future Sight}} with Uxie, destroying her ship later on. It was then controlled by the team to help fulfill its goal. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', after breaking from their control with the help of [[Dawn's Piplup]] and [[Cynthia's Garchomp]], it helped in stopping [[Cyrus]]'s plot to use {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.

It seems to be similar to {{an|Jigglypuff}}, as like Jigglypuff, it is also offended as its listeners fall asleep and it inflates itself in anger.

====Personality and characteristics====
As stated before, this Marill is very similar to the recurring Jigglypuff as it loves to sing for an audience and gets furious when it's audience falls asleep on it.

{{p|Hippopotas}} made his first appearance in ''[[DP044|Mass Hip-Po-Sis!]]'', where {{Ash}}, with the aid of {{ashfr}}, rescued the Pokémon from being trapped upon a high ledge. It was then discovered that Hippopotas was lost and he was separated from the rest of the Hippopotas and Hippowdon. Ash and friends helped Hippopotas find his way back to the herd. Like a few other Pokémon, Hippopotas seemed to like to be carried on top of Ash's head.

[[Jessie]] had trouble saying the Pokémon's species name; she and her {{TRT}} fellows attempted to steal Hippopotas for their boss.

Hippopotas's second and final appearance was in ''[[DP065|Sleight of Sand!]]'' with his father {{p|Hippowdon}}. In this episode, [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] also wanted to kidnap the Hippo Pokémon but they failed.

====Personality and characteristics====
Hippopotas was shown to be extremely friendly and trusting of Ash and his friends when he first appeared in ''[[DP044|Mass Hip-Po-Sis]]'', and the reason is because Ash saved Hippopotas when he was stuck on the ledge of a cliff and then gave Hippopotas some food that he had been trying to reach. After Hippopotas was safe and full Ash and his friends continued on, but stopped when they noticed Hippopotas had been following them, and both Brock and Dawn noticed Hippopotas had taken a liking to Ash. In Hippopotas' next appearance ''[[DP065|Sleight of Sand]]'' Hippopotas met up with Ash and his friends once again after getting separated from his friend {{p|Hippowdon}} and he was really sad showing that Hippopotas loves hanging out with his friends.

===Azelf===

Azelf appeared in spirit form (much like {{p|Mesprit}} did to {{an|Dawn}} in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'') to {{Ash}} in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]''.

Azelf first appeared in its physical form in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', where it was the first to be captured by [[J]] and [[Team Galactic]]. It was then controlled by the team to help fulfill its goal. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', after breaking from their control with the help of [[Ash's Pikachu]] and {{AP|Staraptor}}, it helped in stopping [[Cyrus]]'s plot to use {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.

In ''[[BW002|Enter Iris and Axew!]]'', Zekrom appeared once more and caused a thunderstorm. The storm hit Pikachu again and he regained his Electric powers.

Zekrom made further appearances in flashbacks.

He appeared in the legend of [[Milos Island]] related to {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} by [[Lewis]], and later appeared at the end of the episode when called to stop the battle of {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}}. He then appeared in ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', where he managed to subdue the other members of the Forces of Nature.

Landorus appeared in both of his Formes in ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', where he was summoned to the [[Abyssal Ruins]] by {{an|Giovanni}} and sent on a rampage alongside Tornadus and Thundurus. Eventually, the three were freed by {{an|Meloetta}} and departed.

{{p|Reshiram}} first appeared in ''[[BW110|The Name's N!]]'' in a flashback {{an|N}} had during his time in his [[N's Castle|castle]]. It flew away when the castle was on fire.

It reappeared in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]'' in another flashback while N revealed that he was once a member of [[Team Plasma]]. It was revealed that Reshiram was responsible for burning the castle.

Reshiram made another flashback appearance in ''[[BW120|Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!]]''.

Reshiram was revived from the {{DL|Dragon Stones|Light Stone}} in ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]''. Following the revival, [[Colress]] zapped it with his machine and [[Ghetsis]] took control of it. Because of {{AP|Pikachu}} and Reshiram rebelling against the machine, Colress and Ghetsis lost control of Reshiram. Before Reshiram flies off, N stopped it and said that he always wanted to meet it. N asks Reshiram how it felt when it saw everyone battle against evil in the ruins and silently responded to him by looking at him.

N also asked if it could believe in humans as they believe in Pokémon. The world of truth that Reshiram wants and the ideal world for humans. N tells Reshiram that just like it, he will keep fighting for the ideal world that everyone can live in. Reshiram accepted N's request and flew away peacefully into the sky.

====Personality and characteristics====
Reshiram's personality is largely a mystery as it was only seen in flashbacks and under the control of Ghetsis. However, it appears to have a close association with N, and it is able to effectively commune with him.

{{p|Malamar}} first appeared in ''[[XY019|A Conspiracy to Conquer!]]''. Unlike most [[wild Pokémon]], this Malamar is an independently evil being who conspires to change the face of [[Pokémon world|the world]]. It hypnotized an [[Officer Jenny]] who went to investigate at a radio observatory. As a result, she became Madame X. Together, the two went to a dark cave where {{TRT}} were and hypnotized them, save for {{MTR}}, who quickly slashed up his own face with {{m|Fury Swipes}}. With Team Rocket in tow, Malamar found the whereabouts of {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} by a tree. It took Pikachu with them and forced him to be under their control. By the time Ash, his friends, and Meowth arrived in the observation chamber of the radio observatory, Malamar cruelly took control of {{an|Clemont}}, {{an|Bonnie}}, and {{an|Serena}}. The [[List of Clemont's inventions|Automatic Pikachu Retrieving Device]] that Clemont built earlier entered the observatory and crashes into Malamar, breaking its control over everyone it hypnotized. Officer Jenny went back to normal and explained what happened. Malamar revealed that it tricked them into believing that Madame X was a real person and it was using her as its pawn. Malamar also revealed that Madame X's goal of taking over the world was a lie and hopes to reconstruct the world using a mind control machine. Angered at Malamar's lies and dishonesty, Ash, Officer Jenny, and the gang went after Malamar who led them to a room containing the system of great significance. Since everyone saw what Malamar was doing, it destroyed the weapon that it was building and fled.
[[File:Malamar XY054.png|thumb|250px|left|Malamar with its two fellow Malamar]]
Malamar reappeared in ''[[XY054|Facing the Grand Design!]]'' where it had recruited two other Malamar in a plan to distort the world using energy crystals. Malamar and the other two hypnotized the top scientists in Kalos to build the energy crystals. Afterwards, they stole three delivery trucks and recklessly drove them with the crystals to the [[Grace Tower]] to get their plan in action. When Team Rocket went to the top of Grace Tower, the Malamar trio spotted them after {{TP|James|Inkay}} became furious at the one particular Malamar for what it did to them previously. Malamar was unable to find the Team Rocket trio after they fled.

Malamar discovered the trio along with Ash, his friends, and the Officer Jenny who it had hypnotized before. The three of them caught Ash, his friends (with the exception of Clemont), [[Jessie]], and Officer Jenny by keeping them frozen in the air through {{m|Psychic}}, leaving Clemont, Meowth, [[James]] and Inkay to save the day. Malamar and the other two were defeated after being subdued by James's Inkay, a group of good Malamar and other wild Inkay who James and Clemont had brought to help, their crystals were deactivated by [[Officer Jenny's Manectric]]. Despite their defeat and Officer Jenny pointing it out, all of the crystals combined into one and the evil Malamar went in them as a method of escape, allowing all three of them to avoid capture and thus destroying any evidence of their plan. Before they left, they claimed they were heading into the future but swore they would return to fight once more and their plan would succeed someday.

====Personality and characteristics====
Unlike most Pokémon, Malamar is a cruel and evil Pokémon with a mysterious dark past. Though there have been many mischievous, manipulative and misunderstood Pokémon in the series, the wild Malamar are unique for being one of the only to seek world dominion without any known human influence. Malamar had no trouble with its plans for world domination as it hypnotized people and Pokémon to do its bidding. However, Trainers with a strong bond with their Pokémon such as {{Ash}} with {{AP|Pikachu}} and [[James]] with {{TP|James|Inkay}} are able to break free of Malamar's hypnotic control, or by pain as seen in Meowth's case, snapping out of it by {{m|Fury Swipes|scratching}} himself - or others such as Ash - repeatedly in the face. The three evil Malamar are shown to be psychopaths for they showed no signs of remorse, guilt, or redemption after their plans were stopped by Ash and his friends. They're also shown to be very merciless when their leader brainwashed several Pokémon, Ash's friends, Team Rocket, Pikachu and Officer Jenny and forced them to attack Ash and Meowth without any decency or mercy. They even lack the sense of honor and morality when they refused to accept defeat or learn from their previous mistakes.

It then left and returned to the ozone layer.

It reappeared in ''[[SS032|Mega Evolution Special III]]'' where it stopped a battle between Primal {{p|Kyogre}} and Primal {{p|Groudon}}.

====Personality and characteristics====
Not much was seen of Rayquaza's personality as it was mostly seen in a fit of rage. However, it was shown to stop the violent clash between Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon when the two clashed.

[[File:Goodra and Wooper.png|thumb|250px|left|Wooper and Goodra]]
Prior to the events of ''[[XY055|A Slippery Encounter!]]'', Wooper was close friends with a lone {{AP|Goomy}} who lived in [[Kalos Route 14|the wetlands]]. The two were very happy together and often played with the rest of the Pokémon in the wetlands. One day, while Wooper and {{p|Goomy}} were playing together in a lake, the wetlands were invaded by a {{p|Florges}} and her {{type|Bug}} and {{type|Poison}} army. During the chaos, Wooper became separated from its friend Goomy as Goomy landed on a fleeing {{p|Swanna}}.

Wooper made its first onscreen appearance in ''[[XY069|Defending the Homeland!]]'' where it got to reunite with Goomy who was now a {{p|Goodra}}. When Goodra, who remembered all the good times it had with it, called loudly for its friends, Wooper recognized its voice and was the first to go find it. When it saw Goodra, it approached Goodra and was happy when Goodra recognized it. The other Pokémon then came out to greet Goodra. Wooper had a happy reunion with Goodra, but this was cut short when Swanna warned then about Florges's arrival.

Florges's army attacked once again. Goodra was able to get Wooper and its friends to fight back, and Goodra bested Florges in the battle. After the fight, when Goodra was recovering from a surprise attack, Wooper stayed with Goodra to watch it recover. During the nighttime, an {{p|Ariados}} kidnapped Wooper, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}} while they were sleeping.

In ''[[XY070|Beyond the Rainbow!]]'', Wooper was placed in a special cage. It saw that Florges was holding her weakened child. Wooper, along with Pikachu and Dedenne tried convincing Florges that {{TRT}} was lying but {{MTR}} cutted them off by accusation. After Ash, {{an|Bonnie}}, and Goodra found and confronted Team Rocket, Florges attempted to attack after hearing the truth but Team Rocket escaped on their [[Team Rocket's mechas|mecha]] taking with them the cages containing Wooper, Pikachu, and Dedenne, and the stolen spring water. Wooper was found on the back of Team Rocket's airship. It was freed after {{TP|Jessie|Pumpkaboo}} accidentally slammed into the panel. After defeating Team Rocket, Goodra placed Wooper on a {{p|Yanmega}} to escape the falling airship.

Wooper was then seen interacting with the other Pokémon after {{p|Floette}} became fully healed. Goodra was then told to stay behind with Wooper and the other Pokémon in the wetlands since it belonged there and it was no longer a Goomy. Thus, it could protect the other Pokémon from future dangers.

Wooper made a brief appearance in ''[[XY112|Master Class is in Session!]]'' and ''[[XY113|Performing a Pathway to the Future!]]'', watching {{an|Serena}}'s Master Class [[Pokémon Showcase]] along with Keanan and the other wetland Pokémon.

====Personality and characteristics====
Wooper was a very close friend of a single Goomy and was almost always with it during its time in the wetlands. It appeared to be the closest friend of Goomy, as the two would often happily play together along with the other Pokémon in the wetlands. Much like Goomy, Wooper is very playful and friendly.

Due to it being especially close to Goomy, Wooper was the first to recognize {{AP|Goodra}} when it had returned, now fully evolved. It was also the first to approach it, despite warning from the other Pokémon in the wetlands. It also stayed with Goodra while it was recovering from a surprise attack caused by Team Rocket.

Florges made her debut in ''[[XY069|Defending the Homeland!]]'' where she was the presumed leader of the group of Pokemon attacking {{AP|Goodra}}'s wetland. In the end she was defeated by Goodra's Ice Beam. She did this to protect a {{p|Floette}}, and joined forces with Team Rocket. She reappeared in ''[[XY070|Beyond the Rainbow!]]'', where she learned of Team Rocket's deception and teamed up with Goodra to help defeat them. She reappeared in ''[[XY112|Master Class is in Session!]]'', ''[[XY113|Performing a Pathway to the Future!]]'', and ''[[XY123|A Diamond in the Rough!]]''.

In the past, Litten was rescued by an aging wild {{p|Stoutland}}, and the two began to live together. However, the Stoutland soon became too old to search for food by itself, leaving Litten to do the gathering.

This Litten first appeared in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', relaxing on the beaches of [[Melemele Island]] before it was accidentally stepped on by {{Ash}} when he was racing with {{AP|Pikachu}}. Litten, in anger, attacked Ash with Ember and walked off. Litten was later seen in [[SM004]], being fed by an old lady in a marketplace on the beach, where it saw [[Ash's Rowlet|a wild Rowlet]] carrying off a wind chime.

In [[SM007]], Litten approached Ash and Pikachu in an attempt to get something to eat. When Ash offered it a piece of the sandwich he was going to have for lunch that day, Litten stole the larger portion and ran off, only to be stopped and foiled by an [[Regional variant|Alolan]] {{p|Persian}}. Annoyed by Litten's trickery, Ash promised to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} Litten. The next day, Ash and Pikachu saw Litten being attacked by the previous Alolan Persian and stopped it. Litten, despite being on the verge of collapse, protested against being brought to the [[Pokémon Center]], biting and scratching Ash all the way there. After being treated, Ash brought Litten to Kukui's house, but it managed to escape in the middle of the night. Ash, Pikachu, and [[Rotom Pokédex|Rotom]] followed Litten to an abandoned house, where they discovered that Litten had been gathering food for an old Stoutland. Having learned this, Ash decided to give up on capturing Litten, leaving it to care for its caretaker. Suddenly, the group was attacked by the Alolan Persian from earlier. Ash had everyone leave the house, where Pikachu and Litten then started battling the Persian. Litten eventually defeated Persian, and successfully protected Stoutland. The next day, Ash discovered that Litten and Stoutland had relocated. After being assured by the old lady of the marketplace that Litten was doing fine, Litten appeared from behind her to grab the fruit she had prepared and ran off into the distance.

Litten reappeared in [[SM016]] when [[Ash's Rowlet]] and [[Lana's Popplio]] got separated from their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and fought {{MTR}} off when he tried to catch them. It took them to Stoutland, who told Litten to go and help Rowlet and Popplio get back to their Trainers, which Litten reluctantly did.

Litten is set to reappear in a future episode where it asks Ash for help with Stoutland.

====Personality and characteristics====
Litten is a stubborn Pokémon that tends to keep its emotions and motives hidden. Its closest friend is an old {{p|Stoutland}} that once helped it when it had lost consciousness. Litten has been seen training itself with Stoutland's guidance. Litten has a very close relationship with Stoutland, and deeply cared for it, as evidenced by Litten's dreams about it.

Litten has difficulty getting close to humans, but seems to get along well with the old lady of the marketplace, often visiting her when it needs food. Litten does seem to get along better with other Pokémon, helping out Rowlet and Popplio get back to their Trainers, albeit reluctantly. When Stoutland thought it would be a good idea for Litten to join Ash, Litten wasn't keen on the idea.

A {{p|Tapu Koko}} appeared in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', in which it gave {{Ash}} a [[Z-Ring]] equipped with an {{DL|Z-Crystal|Electrium Z}}. It reappeared in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'', in which it challenged Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} to a battle. It taught them how to use the [[Z-Move]] {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}} and fled after the Z-Crystal shattered from use.

Tapu Koko reappeared in [[SM009]], where [[Hala]] revealed that the Z-Ring it gave to Ash was stolen from him. It then watched Ash's battle against a {{p|Yungoos}}, a {{p|Gumshoos}}, and the [[Totem Pokémon|Totem Gumshoos]] at [[Verdant Cavern]]. The [[SM010|following day]], it watched Ash's Grand Trial Battle with Hala. After Ash won, Hala was about to give him a Fightinium Z as proof of his victory, but Tapu Koko quickly stole the Z-Crystal and replaced it with another Electrium Z.

Stoutland is a friend of a Litten that wanders around [[Melemele Island]]. It is an elderly Pokémon that Litten looks out for, by giving it food, and lives with.

{{Ash}} intended to catch Litten, but he gave up when he discovered the Pokémon giving food and company to Stoutland.

Stoutland reappeared in [[SM016]] where it and Litten had moved location to under a canal bridge. Stoutland seems keen on the idea of Litten joining Ash's team, something Litten wasn't keen on.

Stoutland is set to appear in a future episode when Litten asks Ash for help when its health doesn't improve.

====Personality and characteristics====

Stoutland was shown to having a caring side where it got Litten to help return [[Ash's Rowlet]] and [[Lana's Popplio]] too its Trainers, despite Litten's reluctance.

==Recurring Pokémon that have been caught==
Six Pokémon that recurred in the anime were later caught, four by {{Ash}}, one by {{an|Clemont}}, and one by [[Jessie]].
* An {{AP|Aipom}} began following the group through the [[Kanto]] region, and was caught three episodes later by Ash in ''[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone!]]''. She had a habit of taking [[Ash's hat]] from him making him chase her around, sometimes lowering her eyelid and sticking out her tongue at him when he tried to get it back. She was eventually traded to {{an|Dawn}} in ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'' and evolved into an Ambipom in ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'' under her care.
* Ash also caught a {{AP|Gible}} in ''[[DP157|Gotta Get a Gible!]]'' after helping him to learn {{m|Draco Meteor}}.
* Ash later caught the {{AP|Sunglasses Krokorok|Krokorok}} (which debuted as a Sandile) that had been following him since ''[[BW003|A Sandile Gusher of Change!]]'' in ''[[BW065|Battling the Bully!]]''. He evolved into a Krookodile in ''[[BW092|Ash, Iris, and Trip: Then There Were Three]]'' during his battle against [[Iris's Dragonite]].
* Clemont caught a {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}} that was following the group in ''[[XY004|A Shockingly Cheeky Friendship!]]'' which he gave to {{an|Bonnie}} to take care of.
* Jessie caught a {{TP|Jessie|Mimikyu}} in [[SM004]] after it helped {{TRT}} attack Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* Ash caught a {{AP|Rockruff}} in [[SM015]] that lived with him and [[Professor Kukui]] in Kukui's home. Although Kukui took care of it, it was never actually his Pokémon.
