'''Probopass''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダイノーズ''' ''Dainose'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Nosepass}} when [[level]]ed up in a [[special magnetic field]].

==Biology==
[[File:Cyrus Probopass Mini Noses Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Probopass's Mini-Noses]]
Probopass is a mostly blue, rock Pokémon. It has small round eyes, a red nose that is large in proportion to its body, and a bushy black mustache that appears to consist of iron filings. These iron filings appear to be attracted by its magnetic nose. It has three small objects on its sides and back, called Mini-Noses (Japanese: '''チビノーズ''' ''Mini-Nose''), which it is able to control. It has a big red hat-like magnet on top of its head, and has strong magnetism from all over its body.

Being able to command these Mini-Noses, it is able to catch prey and attack opponents from all three directions. On occasion, its Mini-Noses can get lost and may never come back. It emits strong magnetic fields that can damage nearby appliances.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Olivia Probopass.png|thumb|250px|left|Probopass in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
Probopass appeared in ''[[DP058|Nosing 'Round The Mountain!]]'', under [[Alan]]'s ownership. It was first shown as a Nosepass, but it evolved while {{pkmn|training}} near [[Mt. Coronet]] due to the mountain's [[special magnetic field]]. Soon after evolving, {{TRT}} brought Probopass under their control, but it was eventually freed. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP093|Playing The Leveling Field!]]'', where it was revealed to have defeated [[Fantina]]'s {{p|Gengar}}, earning Alan the {{Badge|Relic}}.

Multiple Probopass appeared in ''[[DP112|Cheers on Castaways Isle!]]'', where they were living in an island located on [[Diablo's Ocean]] together with their pre-evolved form {{p|Nosepass}}.

Three Probopass appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the ownership of [[Damos]]. In the original timeline set up by the movie, they were used by Damos, who was under {{m|Hypnosis}}, to attack {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} with {{m|Shock Wave}}. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} traveled to the past to prevent this, [[Marcus]], the one responsible for hypnotizing Damos, managed to use the Probopass again to attack Arceus.

A Probopass appeared in ''[[SM036|Trials and Determinations!]]'', under the ownership of [[Olivia]]. It was used in the [[Island challenge|grand trial]] against Ash; it battled {{AP|Rockruff}} and {{AP|Rowlet}}, being defeated by the latter after it used {{m|Bloom Doom}}.

====Minor appearances====
A {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Probopass appeared in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]'', where it was seen participating in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the [[Arrowroot Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]].

A Probopass briefly appeared in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Trainer]] competing in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]].

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[PS349|Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone]]'', {{adv|Diamond}} was separated from {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} in [[Mt. Coronet]] because [[Cyrus]] deemed their presence as a nuisance and attempted to bury them alive in a {{m|Rock Slide}} with his Probopass and {{p|Magnezone}}. Diamond and Pearl would later fight to keep the criminal mastermind from taking his camera back to his headquarters, during which Cyrus used his Probopass' {{m|Magnet Bomb}} to injure the former.

[[Wikstrom]]'s Probopass first appeared in ''[[PAXY32|Malamar Traps]]''.

==Trivia==
* Probopass is tied with {{p|Registeel}} and Shield Forme {{p|Aegislash}} for the highest base {{stat|Special Defense}} stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* As there is no strongly electromagnetic location in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, it is impossible to evolve Nosepass into a Probopass in these games. The same applies for {{p|Magnezone}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, and {{p|Glaceon}}. All have to be traded from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to be obtained.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[GTS]], an English language Probopass cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* In ''[[XY104|A Windswept Encounter!]]'' [[Clemont (anime)|Clemont]] uses [[List of Clemont's inventions|a machine]] that detects Pokémon flowers which resembles a Probopass but without the moustache nor the Mini-Noses.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Nosepass and Probopass}}
Probopass is based on the {{wp|pukau}}-wearing {{wp|moai}} statues of {{wp|Easter Island}} and a compass magnet with {{wp|iron filings}} attached to it. All of Probopass's noses are like the needles in a {{wp|compass rose}}, with the big nose pointing North (as in some compasses where the North needle is the biggest), and the Mini-Noses pointing to the East, South, and West, respectively.

Besides, Probopass may be also based on {{wp|Tsurube-otoshi}} according to its apparition in [[Pokémon Generations]]. Tsurube-Otoshi is a giant floating head Yokai that hunts droping quickly to the ground and crush people which pass underneath. This Yokai also appears as a group of smaller heads, just like Mini-Noses.

====Name origin====
Probopass is a combination of ''{{wp|proboscis}}'' and ''{{wp|compass}}''.

Dainose may be a combination of 大 ''dai'' (big) and ''nose'', while Mini-noses, that are called Chibinose (チビノーズ), are the opposite being a combination of ''chibi'' (small) and ''nose''.

==In other languages==
{{Other languages|type=Rock|type2=Steel

'''Probopass''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダイノーズ''' ''Dainose'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Nosepass}} when [[level]]ed up in a [[special magnetic field]].

==Biology==
[[File:Cyrus Probopass Mini Noses Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Probopass's Mini-Noses]]
Probopass is a mostly blue, rock Pokémon. It has small round eyes, a red nose that is large in proportion to its body, and a bushy black mustache that appears to consist of iron filings. These iron filings appear to be attracted by its magnetic nose. It has three small objects on its sides and back, called Mini-Noses (Japanese: '''チビノーズ''' ''Mini-Nose''), which it is able to control. It has a big red hat-like magnet on top of its head, and has strong magnetism from all over its body.

Being able to command these Mini-Noses, it is able to catch prey and attack opponents from all three directions. On occasion, its Mini-Noses can get lost and may never come back. It emits strong magnetic fields that can damage nearby appliances.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Olivia Probopass.png|thumb|250px|left|Probopass in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
Probopass appeared in ''[[DP058|Nosing 'Round The Mountain!]]'', under [[Alan]]'s ownership. It was first shown as a Nosepass, but it evolved while {{pkmn|training}} near [[Mt. Coronet]] due to the mountain's [[special magnetic field]]. Soon after evolving, {{TRT}} brought Probopass under their control, but it was eventually freed. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP093|Playing The Leveling Field!]]'', where it was revealed to have defeated [[Fantina]]'s {{p|Gengar}}, earning Alan the {{Badge|Relic}}.

Multiple Probopass appeared in ''[[DP112|Cheers on Castaways Isle!]]'', where they were living in an island located on [[Diablo's Ocean]] together with their pre-evolved form {{p|Nosepass}}.

Three Probopass appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the ownership of [[Damos]]. In the original timeline set up by the movie, they were used by Damos, who was under {{m|Hypnosis}}, to attack {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} with {{m|Shock Wave}}. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} traveled to the past to prevent this, [[Marcus]], the one responsible for hypnotizing Damos, managed to use the Probopass again to attack Arceus.

A Probopass appeared in ''[[SM036|Trials and Determinations!]]'', under the ownership of [[Olivia]]. It was used in the [[Island challenge|grand trial]] against Ash; it battled {{AP|Rockruff}} and {{AP|Rowlet}}, being defeated by the latter after it used {{m|Bloom Doom}}.

====Minor appearances====
A {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Probopass appeared in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]'', where it was seen participating in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the [[Arrowroot Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]].

A Probopass briefly appeared in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Trainer]] competing in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]].

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[PS349|Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone]]'', {{adv|Diamond}} was separated from {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} in [[Mt. Coronet]] because [[Cyrus]] deemed their presence as a nuisance and attempted to bury them alive in a {{m|Rock Slide}} with his Probopass and {{p|Magnezone}}. Diamond and Pearl would later fight to keep the criminal mastermind from taking his camera back to his headquarters, during which Cyrus used his Probopass' {{m|Magnet Bomb}} to injure the former.

[[Wikstrom]]'s Probopass first appeared in ''[[PAXY32|Malamar Traps]]''.

==Trivia==
* Probopass is tied with {{p|Registeel}} and Shield Forme {{p|Aegislash}} for the highest base {{stat|Special Defense}} stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* As there is no strongly electromagnetic location in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, it is impossible to evolve Nosepass into a Probopass in these games. The same applies for {{p|Magnezone}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, and {{p|Glaceon}}. All have to be traded from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to be obtained.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[GTS]], an English language Probopass cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* In ''[[XY104|A Windswept Encounter!]]'' [[Clemont (anime)|Clemont]] uses [[List of Clemont's inventions|a machine]] that detects Pokémon flowers which resembles a Probopass but without the moustache nor the Mini-Noses.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Nosepass and Probopass}}
Probopass is based on the {{wp|pukau}}-wearing {{wp|moai}} statues of {{wp|Easter Island}} and a compass magnet with {{wp|iron filings}} attached to it. All of Probopass's noses are like the needles in a {{wp|compass rose}}, with the big nose pointing North (as in some compasses where the North needle is the biggest), and the Mini-Noses pointing to the East, South, and West, respectively.

Besides, Probopass may be also based on {{wp|Tsurube-Otoshi}} according to its apparition in [[Pokémon Generations]]. Tsurube-Otoshi is a giant floating head Yokai that hunts droping quickly to the ground and crush people which pass underneath. This Yokai also appears as a group of smaller heads, just like Mini-Noses.

====Name origin====
Probopass is a combination of ''{{wp|proboscis}}'' and ''{{wp|compass}}''.

Dainose may be a combination of 大 ''dai'' (big) and ''nose'', while Mini-noses, that are called Chibinose (チビノーズ), are the opposite being a combination of ''chibi'' (small) and ''nose''.

'''Probopass''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダイノーズ''' ''Dainose'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Nosepass}} when [[level]]ed up in a [[special magnetic field]].

==Biology==
[[File:Cyrus Probopass Mini Noses Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Probopass's Mini-Noses]]
Probopass is a mostly blue, rock Pokémon. It has small round eyes, a red nose that is large in proportion to its body, and a bushy black mustache that appears to consist of iron filings. These iron filings appear to be attracted by its magnetic nose. It has three small objects on its sides and back, called Mini-Noses (Japanese: '''チビノーズ''' ''Mini-Nose''), which it is able to control. It has a big red hat-like magnet on top of its head, and has strong magnetism from all over its body.

Being able to command these Mini-Noses, it is able to catch prey and attack opponents from all three directions. On occasion, its Mini-Noses can get lost and may never come back. It emits strong magnetic fields that can damage nearby appliances.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Olivia Probopass.png|thumb|250px|left|Probopass in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
Probopass appeared in ''[[DP058|Nosing 'Round The Mountain!]]'', under [[Alan]]'s ownership. It was first shown as a Nosepass, but it evolved while {{pkmn|training}} near [[Mt. Coronet]] due to the mountain's [[special magnetic field]]. Soon after evolving, {{TRT}} brought Probopass under their control, but it was eventually freed. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP093|Playing The Leveling Field!]]'', where it was revealed to have defeated [[Fantina]]'s {{p|Gengar}}, earning Alan the {{Badge|Relic}}.

Multiple Probopass appeared in ''[[DP112|Cheers on Castaways Isle!]]'', where they were living in an island located on [[Diablo's Ocean]] together with their pre-evolved form {{p|Nosepass}}.

Three Probopass appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the ownership of [[Damos]]. In the original timeline set up by the movie, they were used by Damos, who was under {{m|Hypnosis}}, to attack {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} with {{m|Shock Wave}}. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} traveled to the past to prevent this, [[Marcus]], the one responsible for hypnotizing Damos, managed to use the Probopass again to attack Arceus.

A Probopass appeared in ''[[SM036|Trials and Determinations!]]'', under the ownership of [[Olivia]]. It was used in the [[Island challenge|grand trial]] against Ash; it battled {{AP|Rockruff}} and {{AP|Rowlet}}, being defeated by the latter after it used {{m|Bloom Doom}}.

====Minor appearances====
A {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Probopass appeared in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]'', where it was seen participating in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the [[Arrowroot Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]].

A Probopass briefly appeared in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Trainer]] competing in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]].

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[PS349|Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone]]'', {{adv|Diamond}} was separated from {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} in [[Mt. Coronet]] because [[Cyrus]] deemed their presence as a nuisance and attempted to bury them alive in a {{m|Rock Slide}} with his Probopass and {{p|Magnezone}}. Diamond and Pearl would later fight to keep the criminal mastermind from taking his camera back to his headquarters, during which Cyrus used his Probopass' {{m|Magnet Bomb}} to injure the former.

[[Wikstrom]]'s Probopass first appeared in ''[[PAXY32|Malamar Traps]]''.

* Probopass is tied with {{p|Registeel}} and Shield Forme {{p|Aegislash}} for the highest base {{stat|Special Defense}} stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* As there is no strongly electromagnetic location in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, it is impossible to evolve Nosepass into a Probopass in these games. The same applies for {{p|Magnezone}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, and {{p|Glaceon}}. All have to be traded from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to be obtained.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[GTS]], an English language Probopass cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* In ''[[XY104|A Windswept Encounter!]]'' [[Clemont (anime)|Clemont]] uses [[List of Clemont's inventions|a machine]] that detects Pokémon flowers which resembles a Probopass but without the moustache nor the Mini-Noses.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Nosepass and Probopass}}
Probopass is based on the {{wp|pukau}}-wearing {{wp|moai}} statues of {{wp|Easter Island}} and a compass magnet with {{wp|iron filings}} attached to it. All of Probopass's noses are like the needles in a {{wp|compass rose}}, with the big nose pointing North (as in some compasses where the North needle is the biggest), and the Mini-Noses pointing to the East, South, and West, respectively.

Besides, Probopass may be also based on {{wp|Tsurube-Otoshi}} according to its apparition in [[Pokémon Generations]]. Tsurube-Otoshi is a giant floating head Yokai that hunts droping quickly to the ground and crush people which pass underneath. This Yokai also appears as a group of smaller heads, just like Mini-Noses.

====Name origin====
Probopass is a combination of ''{{wp|proboscis}}'' and ''{{wp|compass}}''.

Dainose may be a combination of 大 ''dai'' (big) and ''nose'', while Mini-noses, that are called Chibinose (チビノーズ), are the opposite being a combination of "chibi" (small) and "nose".

A '''Backpacker''' (Japanese: '''バックパッカー''' ''Backpacker'') is a type of [[Trainer class]] introduced in [[Generation V]]. They are young men and women who carry large [[bag|backpacks]] with them.

Backpackers use many different types of Pokémon. In all games except {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, they will always have just one Pokémon in their party unless they are involved in a [[Triple Battle]], [[Rotation Battle]], the [[Battle Subway]], or the [[Battle Maison]]. Some will give out {{DL|Repel|Max Repel}}s when defeated.

A large number of Backpackers can be found in [[Nacrene City]].

They appear to be a younger version of a {{tc|Hiker}}.

'''Probopass''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダイノーズ''' ''Dainose'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Steel}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Nosepass}} when [[level]]ed up in either [[Mt. Coronet]], [[Chargestone Cave]], [[Kalos Route 13]], or [[New Mauville]].

==Biology==
Probopass is a mostly blue, rock Pokémon. It has small round eyes, a red nose that is large in proportion to its body, and a bushy black mustache that appears to consist of iron filings. These iron filings appear to be attracted by its magnetic nose. It has three small objects on its sides and back, called Mini-Noses, which it is able to control. With these Mini-Noses, it is able to attack opponents from all three directions. It has a big red hat-like magnet on top of its head, and has strong magnetism from all over its body.

==In the anime==
[[File:Alan Probopass.png|thumb|210px|left|Probopass in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Probopass appeared in ''[[DP058|Nosing 'Round The Mountain!]]'', under [[Alan]]'s ownership as a Nosepass. It evolved during the same episode. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP093|Playing The Leveling Field!]]'' where it was shown to have defeated [[Fantina]]'s {{p|Gengar}}.

Several Probopass appeared in ''[[DP112|Cheers on Castaways Isle!]]'' together with its pre-evolution, {{p|Nosepass}}.

Three Probopass appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' under the ownership of [[Damos]].

===Minor appearances===
A {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Probopass appeared in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]'' participating in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the [[Arrowroot Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]].

A Probopass made a brief appearance under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Trainer]] in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]''.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Diamond}} was separated from {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} in [[Mt. Coronet]] because [[Cyrus]] deemed their presence as a nuisance and attempted to bury them alive in a {{m|Rock Slide|rockslide}} with his Probopass and {{p|Magnezone}}.

The same Diamond and Pearl would later fight to keep the criminal mastermind from taking his camera back to his headquarters, during which Cyrus used his Probopass' {{m|Magnet Bomb}} to injure the former.

==Trivia==
* Probopass is tied with {{p|Registeel}} and Shield Forme {{p|Aegislash}} for the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} base stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* As there is no strongly electromagnetic location in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, it is impossible to evolve Nosepass into a Probopass in these games. The same applies for {{p|Magnezone}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, and {{p|Glaceon}}. All have to be traded from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to be obtained.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[GTS]], an English language Probopass cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* In ''[[XY104|A Windswept Encounter!]]'' [[Clemont (anime)|Clemont]] uses [[List of Clemont's inventions|a machine]] that detects Pokémon flowers which resembles a Probopass but without the moustache nor the Mini-Noses.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Nosepass and Probopass}}
Probopass is based on the {{wp|pukau}}-wearing {{wp|moai}} statues of {{wp|Easter Island}} and a compass magnet with {{wp|iron filings}} attached to it. All of Probopass's noses are like the needles in a {{wp|compass rose}}, with the big nose pointing North (as in some compasses where the North needle is the biggest), and the Mini-Noses pointing to the East, South, and West, respectively.

====Name origin====
Probopass may be a combination of ''{{wp|proboscis}}'' and ''{{wp|compass}}''.

Dainose may be a combination of 大 ''dai'' (big) and ''nose''.

==In other languages==
{{Other languages|type=Rock|type2=Steel
|ja=ダイノーズ ''Dainose''|jameaning=From {{tt|大 ''dai''|big}}, ''nose'', ''north'' and ''compass''

Berjim: /* Mini-Noses */

Eh...how does Probopass walk? Does it float like Metagross? By the way, Metagross floats and walks.

Oh! I'm sorry, I forgot my signature on that last message! ~Gardevoir

:You can just add the signature to your message without explaining it (or just doing so in the edit summary).
:As for your question, we'll probably have to wait for Probopass to appear in the anime to find out. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] [[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fabu-Vinny|C]]-[[User:Fabu-Vinny/Sandbox|S]] 23:27, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Well, I guess I hope he is in the anime. I do want to see how he moves. ~Gardevoir

Apparently, from the looks of the pics, he levitates. --[[User:Jonouchi|Ricco]] 01:21, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
:What? I just looked through all the pics, he walks on the ground. --'''[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy]][[User talk:Theryguy512|5]][[User:Theryguy512/Contribution Page|1]][[User:Theryguy512/Similarities|2]]''' 14:19, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
::It's just barely off the ground, but it looks like it's floating somewhat. Especially when it's moving with Alan on its back. --[[User:Jonouchi|Ricco]] 01:21, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

== Toilet/Mario ==

Why does Probopass's animation look like flushing a toilet and the cry is the like the same sound? Also, it looks like Mario (who was a plumber, no less), down to the mustache, and even red hat and color of body! [[User:ZanderX|Zander]] 12:03, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
:That is a theory...'''<sc>[[User:Optimus35|Optimus35, to be exact...>.>;;;</nowiki>">Optimatum]]</sc>[[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|♊]]{{{1|12:05 11 Mar 2008}}}'''
:: I'll accept that Probopass resembles a Mr. Potato Head. But, Probopass does not resemble Mario anymore than any person with a moustache. [[User:Trainer-c|Trainer-c]] 21:00, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
::: Well I showed a picture of Probopass to some people and on who he looks like, they all said Mario, none really came up with Mr. Potato Head. [[User:Kilik|Kilik]] 11:41, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
::::I say it's regular form looks more like Mario than its shiny form, for whoever put that. =/ --[[User:Jonouchi|Ricco]] 01:19, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
:::::I doubt that Probopass was meant to look like Mario. If it was, the shiny form would've been based of off Luigi by having the "hat" and nose colored green; but it isn't.--[[User:Pokencyclopedia|Pokencyclopedia]] 19:39, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
::::::Well, Pokencyclopedia, you could be right. Or mayby nintendo showing us just how much they hate Weegee, er luigi.[[User:Glitchym1|Glitchym1~♥]] 21:53, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
::::::Am I the only one that thinks it looks like [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groucho_Marx Groucho Marx]? Or at least like the [http://www.retroplanet.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/25340.jpg glasses]. [[User:Vhazhiphor|Vhazhiphor]] 03:13, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
::::::Truthfully, I'm not sure if I believe in this theory or not, but either way, whoever said that shiny Probopass doesn't make any Mario references is completely wrong. Think about it. If normal Probopass looks like Mario, then the shiny version should be Wario. Plus, the shiny version of Probopass is yellow.

Shouldn't it be noted Probopass is like, I don't know, a parallel to Magnezone?

They both are part Steel-type, both evolve from their previous evolution when levelled up at Mt. Coronet, and both of them evolve from a Pokemon of a previous generation.

:Not really. The things you listed are just about the only things they have in common - unlike most paired counterparts, they don't have similar movesets, they aren't the same evolutionary stage (Probopass is 2nd while Magnezone is 3rd), and their base stats, catch rates, and various other numerical designations differ wildly.

== Mini-Noses ==

Hi! I wanted to discuss about the possible basis on the Mini-Noses design. I have three theories... First, the Tangata Manu was a competition on Easter Island, and it's unknown if Tangata Manu had co-existed with Moai heads and [http://media.offexploring.co.uk/photos/tanya_claudia/photos/DSC05698.jpg the rock art resembles the Mini-Noses]. In the other hand, {{wp|Makemake_(deity)|Make-Make}} resembles more the design and it is other deity on the Rapa Nui mithology.

Exists another possibility, but it's more unknown: [https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1d/Navel-of-the-World-2013.jpg The Navel of the World], a lithic site near Ahu Te Pito Kura. I don't find any article about this on Wikipedia, but it's a magnetic rock that [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls4hyBLVw_M makes losing control the compasses] like Probopass in the anime, and has with four identical stones around the rock which represent the four sides of the compass.

Maybe I'm being paranoid, but I'm sure the Mini-noses are designed with some basis. --[[User:Berjim|Berjim]] ([[User talk:Berjim|talk]]) 22:02, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

== Japanese seiyū ==

Hello, I've noticed that you've changed the term "seiyū" to "voice actor" on [[Becky]]'s page twice. I won't undo your revision because we really shouldn't get into an edit war, but I have to remind you that the term "seiyū" is used when referring to Japanese voice actors in order to distinguish them from English voice actors. It's also a rule {{u|Kenji-girl}} established on the [[Project VA#Article Structure|Project VA]] page.

Also, you suggested that the "[[List of Japanese voice actors]]" page use the term "seiyū" but then it'd be inconsistent with Becky's page...either we'd have to change both uses of "seiyū" to "voice actor" for both Becky's and the list's pages, or else we'd have to do the opposite for all other VA articles.

I don't see how using one or the other ("seiyu" or "voice actor") on all pages is inconsistent; if anything, the way we have it now is inconsistent, as we use two different terms on different parts of the wiki. We should pick one and be consistent with it across all pages. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 02:45, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

==Mega stat trivia==
Just so you know, Dennou made it [[User talk:Dennou Zenshi#Type/stat superlative trivia|pretty clear]] that that was just an opinion and is by no means binding. Now, I've seen SnorlaxMonster remove such trivia as well, so it's basically a ''de facto'' rule. I only decided to add the exclusion rather than remove the whole trivia because there has been no official rule. In my opinion, Mega Evolutions are not like pseudo-legendaries for several reasons: they are alternate forms, not just unusually strong Pokémon; they are not just a fan designation based on stats; and they are temporary, in-battle-only changes, which basically makes them no different than a stat-boosting move. As you can see from [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Archeops_(Pok%C3%A9mon)&curid=116027&diff=2114172&oldid=2114166 our edits], someone thought it notable that Archeops had the highest BST of all Fossil Pokémon, a group with only 11 members. I'd say that small groups like Fossils or Babies or starters should only note the highest BST, while larger groups like types and legendaries should note each highest stat as well.

I am quite surprised this happened! What I did on Bestow's page was remove 'In other generations' section, for the reason that it is still the image from Generation V which goes in the main infobox and it is hence pointless to create a separate section for the same image. As you might check with moves like {{m|Snarl}}, and {{m|Simple Beam}}, and {{m|Entrainment}}, no 'In other generations' has been mentioned on their pages as well due to the same reason. So I would like to ask what prompted you to revert my edits (and call me a vandal on the top of that; it really hurt me!) when a similar pattern is followed for other Generation V moves. [[User:Harryghost|Harryghost]] ([[User talk:Harryghost|talk]]) 11:47, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
:My bad. Somehow I managed to think the infobox image was from Gen VI — although now I can't comprehend why I would think that, as it's clearly pixelated rather than a 3D model. Vandalism was the only reason that occurred to me for why someone would remove what I thought was not a redundant image. I humbly apologize.

== Zapdos edit ==

Thanks for the edit you recently made to Zapdos's page.[[User:Ratchet and Clank 1995|Ratchet and Clank 1995]] ([[User talk:Ratchet and Clank 1995|talk]]) 18:45, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

== Nature Power revert ==

How is that self evident? The point of the articles is to educate the reader on the intricacies of the moves, and it can't do that if information is left up in the air. in your rationel, it should be evident that Hidden Power is affected by the abilities, however that is not the case. Hidden Power is a normal type move, but it is not treated as one by the ability.

Moves behave in all kinds of unpredictable ways, like how Curse places a curse on the user if they have protean.

For all the reader knows, if a Pokemon has acquired Refrigerate and then uses Nature Power while Electric Terrain is on the field, the move would be a Ice-type thunderbolt just like how Normalize makes Thunderwave a normal-type move that can bypass ground's immunity. The problem is, it won't, so if you try to use Nature Power against a ground type in this scenario, all you're going to do is throw away a move because it'll still be immune. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 21:51, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
:It's self-evident because Nature Power is merely "calling" the other move in the same way Metronome does. Since "called moves act the same as they do if they're used normally" is a general rule, it's only exceptions to that rule that need to be noted, since a reader can always easily navigate to the called move's page to read about it. If we wrote about every called move's interactions with everything else in the game (especially, god forbid, on a page like Metronome) it would balloon out of control.

== Zygarde ==

Bringing this up here before I do any further edits. The Zygarde section seems to put a lot of emphasis on trying to justify the Loki's children theory, and Norse mythology in general. Leaving little room for other interpretations. If you want to trim down the section I suggest removing a lot of the justification for these theories too. Like how are long lines fine like this one: ''Zygarde Complete Forme may be based on Hel, the ruler of {{wp|Hel (location)|Helheim}}, the realm of the dead in Nordic myth. She is often depicted as a half alive and half dead being, which may have inspired Zygarde's theme of balance between life and death.'' But a short note that Complete may be based on a combined Mecha not? Complete has a very strong physical appearance and generally looks inorganic, this in contrast to Hel who is frail. The Mecha note can help give insight into that.

Flatworms being able to form into bigger multi-cellular creatures is incorrect, they can just split into several individuals if cut in two, but not actually merge. Flatworms should either be left out of that sentence completely or get their own specifying that case. I support the first. Also I think Euglena is worth mentioning because they are the creatures that visually look the most like Zygarde Core, on top of the photosynthesis link. [[User:Petrichor|Petrichor]] ([[User talk:Petrichor|talk]]) 05:38, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
:I'm just trying to avoid excessive detail. Which interpretations get focus and which don't are something that I have no particular stance on. The Norse mythology thing has been heavily pushed by other users, though, so I've been hesitant to trim it because people tend to throw a fit when it's trimmed. But you're more than welcome to try to do so yourself if you want. As for flatworms, sorry about that. I'll adjust that clause.

:Apologies. That trivium had stood like that for a ''very'' long time without anyone objecting, you left no edit summary to explain, and we often have vandals who change minor things for apparently no reason but enjoyment of seeing subtle wrongness go unnoticed, so I assumed you were one of those vandals. It seems you were perhaps instead just correcting something one of those vandals had slipped in long ago. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Can you find me a sortable list of GenII base stats for only the 151 Kanto Pokemon? I need it to be Kanto Pokemon only, I can't have all the others crowding the list, because they're not in Pokemon GO yet.

==Reggie==
Hi there! Would you please explain why you removed [[Reggie]] from the "Other participants" section in the article for the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]]? The reason you gave in the edit summary is really not good enough.

As you must know, our articles can be {{cat|Articles needing more information|incomplete}}. It's not because Reggie's participation in the League isn't mentioned on his article that you should go and remove it from other pages. Your edit created an inconsistency because Reggie is still listed as a participant in the pages for the [[Indigo Plateau Conference|Indigo]], [[Silver Conference|Silver]], and [[Ever Grande Conference]]s.

As a rule of thumb, you should always look for a source or watch the episodes yourself instead of guessing. And if I had to guess, I'd say the chances of him having participated in these League tournaments are high considering he got eight Badges from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh. --[[User:Mikuri|'''Mi''']][[User talk: Mikuri|'''ku''']][[Special:Contributions/Mikuri|'''ri''']] 00:20, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
:True, our articles can be incomplete. But the same user who added it had just had [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Lily_of_the_Valley_Conference&diff=2474800&oldid=2474773 other contributions to the same article reverted], so I thought the odds were more likely that it was another bad contribution than that several of our pages were wrong. We can't simply rely on "the chances" of him having participated based on the number of his Badges; someone must cite the episode in which it's explicitly stated that he had participated in the past. The onus of proof is on the side trying to change the status quo, and the status quo for years has been that he hasn't been listed as a prior participant. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 00:27, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
::Nowhere did I say we should assume things and rely on the chances of something being correct. On the contrary, I suggested you to look for a source and, failing that, to watch the episode and see it for yourself. If I *had* to guess, I would say Reggie did compete in these League tournaments, ''but I don't have to''. I was simply telling you to check your facts before creating inconsistencies. In the future, don't assume. Thank you. --[[User:Mikuri|'''Mi''']][[User talk: Mikuri|'''ku''']][[Special:Contributions/Mikuri|'''ri''']] 02:31, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

== Eggs in Pokemon GO ==

You asked me to put sources there, but I wasn't sure if you wanted them on the page or just wanted to see them, so I'm showing them to you first.
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-08-08-pokemon-go-eggs-chart-hatching-2km-5km-10km-eggs
http://www.serebii.net/pokemongo/eggs.shtml (doesn't mention anything about it being possible)
https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/4w9d00/have_you_hatched_eggs_great_i_want_you_to_tell_me/ (about region exclusives)
https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/4wmkdt/ign_is_claiming_higher_km_eggs_have_the_potential/ (throwing this one up too)

Let me explain. Basically, you don't get an a bulletproof source, since Niantic haven't said anything themselves. But all evidence points towards what I edited into the two pages. The last reddit dicussion I posted clears the misunderstanding. IGN was incorrect about it in their initial article because they based it on surveys. Players might have claimed to have seen the same species hatch in Eggs with different hatching distances in those surveys, but today, more than a month after release, it has yet to be proved that they can and most sites and players have caught up on that now so I thought it was time for Bulbapedia to do the same thing. They also incorrectly put Mr. Mime down as a Pokemon that can hatch from 5km Eggs. This was likely because the other three region exlcusives comes from 5km Eggs and thus it was a good assumption, but nevertheless it's not true, which you'll once again learn by looking more into it.

In short, what I edited can't be proved 100%, but neither could what I edited out and now that all evidence points towards what I edited in to be correct, I fully believe that's what the articles should go by. I hope this is enough to convince you. [[User:Ctesjbuvf|Ctesjbuvf]] ([[User talk:Ctesjbuvf|talk]]) 16:25, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
:Well, that's about as bulletproof as we can expect, considering Niantic's hush-hush nature. I definitely trust TheSilphRoad more than the general PokemonGo subreddit, the latter of which is where I've seen most of the "general knowledge" I had thought was true.

== Mini-Noses ==

Hi! I realise that you removed the Mini-Noses origin theory, and I wanted to discuss about it with you. The Tangata Manu was a competition on Easter Island, and it's unknown if Tangata Manu had co-existed with Moai heads and [http://media.offexploring.co.uk/photos/tanya_claudia/photos/DSC05698.jpg the rock art resembles the Mini-Noses]. In the other hand, {{wp|Makemake_(deity)|Make-Make}} resembles more the design and it is other deity on the Rapa Nui mithology.

Exists another possibility, but it's more unknown: [https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1d/Navel-of-the-World-2013.jpg The Navel of the World], a lithic site near Ahu Te Pito Kura.

'''Probopass''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダイノーズ''' ''Dainose'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Steel}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Nosepass}} when [[level]]ed up in either [[Mt. Coronet]], [[Chargestone Cave]], [[Kalos Route 13]], or [[New Mauville]].

==Biology==
Probopass is a mostly blue, rock Pokémon. It has small round eyes, a red nose that is large in proportion to its body, and a bushy black mustache that appears to consist of iron filings. These iron filings appear to be attracted by its magnetic nose. It has three small objects on its sides and back, called mini-noses, which it is able to control. With these mini-noses, it is able to attack opponents from all three directions. It has a big red hat-like magnet on top of its head, and has strong magnetism from all over its body.

==In the anime==
[[File:Alan Probopass.png|thumb|210px|left|Probopass in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Probopass appeared in ''[[DP058|Nosing 'Round The Mountain!]]'', under [[Alan]]'s ownership as a Nosepass. It evolved during the same episode. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP093|Playing The Leveling Field!]]'' where it was shown to have defeated [[Fantina]]'s {{p|Gengar}}.

Several Probopass appeared in ''[[DP112|Cheers on Castaways Isle!]]'' together with its pre-evolution, {{p|Nosepass}}.

Three Probopass appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' under the ownership of [[Damos]].

===Minor appearances===
A {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Probopass appeared in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]'' participating in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the [[Arrowroot Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]].

A Probopass made a brief appearance under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Trainer]] in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]''.

In ''[[XY104|A Windswept Encounter!]]'' Clemont uses a machine that detects Pokémon flowers which resembles a Probopass

==Trivia==
* Probopass is tied with {{p|Registeel}} and Shield Forme {{p|Aegislash}} for the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} base stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* As there is no strongly electromagnetic location in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, it is impossible to evolve Nosepass into a Probopass in these games. The same applies for {{p|Magnezone}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, and {{p|Glaceon}}. All have to be traded from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to be obtained.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[GTS]], an English language Probopass cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Nosepass and Probopass}}
Probopass is based on the {{wp|pukau}}-wearing {{wp|moai}} statues of {{wp|Easter Island}} and a compass magnet with {{wp|iron filings}} attached to it. It could also be an homage to [[Nintendo]]'s mascot {{smw|Mario}}. All of Probopass's noses are like the needles in a {{wp|Compass Rose}}, with the big nose pointing North (as in some compasses where the North needle is the biggest), and the mini-noses pointing to the East, South, and West, respectively. The design of the mini-noses are based on {{wp|Tangata manu}}, {{wp|Makemake (deity)|Make-make}} or probably in a group of Moai resembling an {{wp|Easter_Island#Stone_platforms|Ahu}}.

====Name origin====
Probopass is a combination of ''{{wp|proboscis}}'' and ''{{wp|compass}}''.

Dainose is a combination of 大 ''dai'' (big) and ''nose''.

'''Probopass''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダイノーズ''' ''Dainose'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Steel}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Nosepass}} when [[level]]ed up in either [[Mt. Coronet]], [[Chargestone Cave]], [[Kalos Route 13]], or [[New Mauville]].

==Biology==
Probopass is a mostly blue, rock Pokémon. It has small round eyes, a red nose that is large in proportion to its body, and a bushy black mustache that appears to consist of iron filings. These iron filings appear to be attracted by its magnetic nose. It has three small objects on its sides and back, called mini-noses, which it is able to control. With these mini-noses, it is able to attack opponents from all three directions. It has a big red hat-like magnet on top of its head, and has strong magnetism from all over its body.

==In the anime==
[[File:Alan Probopass.png|thumb|210px|left|Probopass in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Probopass appeared in ''[[DP058|Nosing 'Round The Mountain!]]'', under [[Alan]]'s ownership as a Nosepass. It evolved during the same episode. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP093|Playing The Leveling Field!]]'' where it was shown to have defeated [[Fantina]]'s {{p|Gengar}}.

Several Probopass appeared in ''[[DP112|Cheers on Castaways Isle!]]'' together with its pre-evolution, {{p|Nosepass}}.

Three Probopass appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' under the ownership of [[Damos]].

===Minor appearances===
A {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Probopass appeared in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]'' participating in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the [[Arrowroot Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]].

A Probopass made a brief appearance under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Trainer]] in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]''.

In ''[[XY104|A Windswept Encounter!]]'' Clemont uses a machine that detects Pokémon flowers which resembles a Probopass

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Sinnoh}}
{{Animedexbody|DP058|Probopass|Dawn's Pokédex|Probopass, the Compass Pokémon, and the evolved form of {{p|Nosepass}}. Its body acts as a powerful magnet. It controls three smaller units called Mini-Noses.}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Cyrus Probopass Adventures.png|thumb|130px|Probopass in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Diamond}} was separated from {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} in [[Mt. Coronet]] because [[Cyrus]] deemed their presence as a nuisance and attempted to bury them alive in a {{m|Rock Slide|rockslide}} with his Probopass and {{p|Magnezone}}.

The same Diamond and Pearl would later fight to keep the criminal mastermind from taking his camera back to his headquarters, during which Cyrus used his Probopass' {{m|Magnet Bomb}} to injure the former.

==Trivia==
* Probopass is tied with {{p|Registeel}} and Shield Forme {{p|Aegislash}} for the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} base stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* As there is no strongly electromagnetic location in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, it is impossible to evolve Nosepass into a Probopass in these games. The same applies for {{p|Magnezone}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, and {{p|Glaceon}}. All have to be traded from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to be obtained.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[GTS]], an English language Probopass cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Nosepass and Probopass}}
Probopass is based on the {{wp|pukau}}-wearing {{wp|moai}} statues of {{wp|Easter Island}} and a compass magnet with {{wp|iron filings}} attached to it. It could also be an homage to [[Nintendo]]'s mascot {{smw|Mario}}. All of Probopass's noses are like the needles in a {{wp|Compass Rose}}, with the big nose pointing North (as in some compasses where the North needle is the biggest), and the mini-noses pointing to the East, South, and West, respectively. The design of the mini-noses are based on {{wp|Tangata manu}}, {{wp|Makemake (deity)}} or probably in a group of Moai resembling an Ahu.

====Name origin====
Probopass is a combination of ''{{wp|proboscis}}'' and ''{{wp|compass}}''.

Dainose is a combination of 大 ''dai'' (big) and ''nose''.
