The '''Indigo Plateau''' (Japanese: '''セキエイ{{ruby|高原|こうげん}}''' ''Sekiei Plateau'') serves as the capital for the [[Pokémon League]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is the final destination for [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collecting [[Indigo League|Indigo]] or [[Johto League]] [[Badge]]s. This is where the Trainers who have defeated all of the eight [[Gym Leader]]s of either Kanto or [[Johto]] battle against the [[Elite Four]] and the [[Pokémon Champion]]. In the {{pkmn|animated series}}, it is the location of the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]], the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], and the Pokémon League Village.

It is located just north of {{ka|Victory Road}} and {{rt|23|Kanto}}, and east of [[Mt. Silver]]. In the [[Generation I]] games, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the only way to reach the Indigo Plateau is by going through Route 23. In the [[Generation II]] games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the Indigo Plateau is reached by going through {{rt|26|Kanto}}. In all the games, Trainers must venture through Victory Road, a lengthy [[cave]] acting as a final test for Trainers.

The Elite Four must be battled consecutively, with breaks to the [[Pokémon Center]] prohibited. Trainers are unable to go back or return to previous rooms. The only way to open the door and progress through each room is to defeat the Elite Four member of that room. Each member of the Elite Four is stronger than the previous member, and like Gym Leaders, each specializes in a different [[type]].

==Slogan==
'''''The ultimate goal of Trainers!'''''{{sup/1|RBY}}{{sup/3|FRLG}} or '''''The Ultimate Goal for Trainers!'''''{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/4|HGSS}} and '''''The highest Pokémon authority!''''' [non-Japanese Generations I and III only] (Japanese, all generations: '''ポケモントレーナーの　頂点''' ''The Pokémon Trainer's zenith'' and '''ポケモン　最高機関''' ''The highest organization on Pokémon'').

==Geography==
===Superstructure===
[[File:Indigo Plateau HGSS.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Generation IV]]
In the {{pkmn|games}}, Indigo Plateau is depicted as a large building surrounded by mountainous areas. Indigo Plateau area changes in every generation, however in every generation there is a small area at the entrance that connects the exit of {{ka|Victory Road}} to Indigo Plateau.

In [[Generation I]], there is a narrow passageway, accessed from the north exit of Route 23.

In [[Generation II]], the area between Victory Road and Indigo Plateau has become Route 23.

In [[Generation III]], there is a flight of stairs that leads up to Indigo Plateau from Route 23, with a small area outside the entrance with a couple of giant statues.

In [[Generation IV]], the pathway from Route 23 is the same as Generation II, but much fancier, and has become the outside of Indigo Plateau. There are two archways each with a small set of stairs above them and {{i|Poké Ball}} statues that appear left and right across the path. The {{FB|Headbutt|tree}}s on both sides of the path can be {{m|Headbutt}}ed, but they do not contain any [[wild Pokémon]].

In [[Generation VII]], the exterior is highly similar to how it was in Generation III, with several big statues standing on both sides of a flight of stairs, accompanied by multiple lush trees.

On the ground floor is a combined [[Poké Mart]] and [[Pokémon Center]]. This is the last safe stop before Trainers make their way up to the upper floors, therefore, Trainers can purchase and stock up on items, as well as heal their Pokémon before leaving. There are a number of things a {{player}} can do on this floor. A [[Pokémon Center lady]] heals all status conditions, recharges [[HP]] and [[PP]] of all [[party]] Pokémon, free of charge. She is located at the main counter just as the player enters Indigo Plateau. It also hosts the Cable Club and the Union Room, which facilitates multiplayer gameplay and link players to battle and trade one another. Trainers also have access to a [[PC]]. Trainers can also buy items from the Poké Mart. The Poké Mart stocks rare items that can only be found in Indigo Plateau.

In Generation II, the layout of the ground floor is slightly modified, with the Cable Club and the Union Room relocated upstairs. The PC is now located in the middle of the room, while the Pokémon Center lady is located on the left of it, and the Poké Mart is located on the right of it. There is also an old man standing near the counter that will ask the player if they miss their [[Player's house#Johto|home]], and will use an {{p|Abra}} to {{m|Teleport}} the Trainer back to [[New Bark Town]]. He offers this because the Trainer cannot {{m|Fly}} to Johto from the Indigo Plateau. He will disappear after the player defeats the Elite Four and Champion for the first time.

In Generation III, the ground floor is similar to the ground floor in Generation I; however, the Cable Club and the Union Room are relocated upstairs. There are a couple of Trainers waiting or resting from training in {{ka|Victory Road}}. Once the player obtains the [[National Pokédex]], [[Lorelei]] will move to [[Icefall Cave]] and the League will be unavailable for rematches until the plot segment there is resolved (an NPC will block the door to Lorelei's battle room).

[[File:Red Rematch Location LGPE.png|thumb|250px|Red's rematch location]]
In Generation IV, the ground floor is revamped with a regal red motif with stairs in the center covered in a red carpet. Like the Pokémon Centers in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the wireless facilities are located in the same room as the Pokémon Center lady, one flight of stairs above. To the right is the Poké Mart and the stairs to the Wi-Fi Club. The man with an Abra is still there, but he won't Teleport the player, saying that intimidated Trainers just Fly back home; in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the player can Fly to any Fly destination in either region from outside the building. To the right of the Abra man is a terminal where the player can compare records with other players that have been contacted wirelessly, similar to the rooms in [[Jubilife TV]].

In Generation VII, the ground floor is a big hall with a mainly golden color scheme, and houses no other features besides the Pokémon Center and the Poké Mart. Like in Generation IV, a red carpet is laid on the floor, stretching from the front door to the entrance to the [[Elite Four]]'s domain. On the west side of the hall is [[Move Reminder|Madame Memorial]], who can teach a Pokémon any of its level-up moves at the cost of one [[Heart Scale]] per taught move. Next to the Poké Mart counter is a {{tc|Super Nerd}}, who offers to [[In-game trade|trade]] the player an {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Exeggutor}} for a Kantonian Exeggutor as many times as they like. After the player has defeated the Pokémon League, a {{tc|Poké Maniac}} appears in the hall, selling the player all the Kanto Pokémon [[Mega Stone]]s for {{PDollar}}30,000 each, excluding the [[Kanto first partner Pokémon]] and {{p|Mewtwo}} Mega Stones.

Once Trainers climb the first staircase, they will reach the first room, and upon entering the door will lock so they are unable to return. The door to the second room is also locked and the only way to open the door and progress through each room is to defeat the Elite Four member of that room.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Lorelei]] is in control of this room, thus is the first member of the Elite Four who must be defeated. In Generation II and IV, Will is the Elite Four member present.

In Generation I, the room is filled with [[water tile|water]], with a small bridge connecting the entrance to the battle area—the player can even {{m|Surf}} on it and [[fishing|fish]] in the water, although wild Pokémon can only be encountered by fishing. In Generation III, the room contains ice pillars instead, and does not have any water.

In [[Generation II]], the room is filled with a pool of ice, with a small bridge connecting the entrance to the battle area, where Will is standing.

In [[Generation III]], Lorelei's room is a plain room with six large statues of ice surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], the room has a purple tiled floor, with floating transparent cubes bobbing around the room, rising seemingly from a black pit. The shape of the room is reminiscent of Generation I.

In [[Generation VII]], Lorelei's room now sports an icy blue color scheme, with cold vapor floating in the air and six stylized ice pillars surrounding the battlefield. Lorelei herself is seen sitting on her {{p|Lapras}}, waiting for the next challenger to arrive.

The second room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. Like the room before it, the doors to other rooms will lock so Trainers are unable to return or advance forward.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Bruno]] is the owner of this room, and has designed it according to his {{type|Fighting}} specialties. The room is full of giant boulders that surround the battlefield, and a Pokémon statue in the corner.

In [[Generation II]], Bruno, the former owner of the room has been replaced by [[Koga]], the former [[Gym Leader]], still using his signature {{type|Poison}} Pokémon. The room has been redesigned and customized to meet the needs of his Poison Pokémon, which now has a grassy floor with many trees towering over the area.

In [[Generation III]], Bruno's room changes from the rocky environment it was to a plain room with six large statues of stone surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], Koga once again claims this room. The room is shaped much like his Generation II room. The floor is covered in grass, but this time Koga stands in the middle of a large rectangle of stone. The sides of the room show the shadows of trees. The stone and wall supports are adorned with moss.

In [[Generation VII]], Bruno's room sports a light brown color scheme, with six stylized stone pillars standing around the battlefield. A bright light is shining into the room, shining off the floor and walls.

The third room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. Like the room before it, the doors to other rooms will lock so Trainers are unable to return or advance forward.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Agatha]] is the owner of this room, and has designed it according to her own {{type|Ghost}} specialties. The room is full of giant gravestones that surround the battlefield. There are gravestones on both sides of the battling arena, and a Pokémon statue in the bottom left-hand corner.

In [[Generation II]], Agatha, the former owner of the room has been replaced by [[Bruno]], the former owner of the second room, who has been promoted and has now taken her place, still using his signature {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon. The room has been redesigned and customized now with pools of lava bubbling left and right of the battle arena. There is a narrow bridge connected to the battling arena where Bruno stands waiting for battle.

In [[Generation III]], Agatha's room changes from the eerie environment with gravestones to a plain room with six large statues surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], Bruno has this room, and it once again is roughly the shape of his Generation II room. The pit is once again filled with lava, but two large tubs line the side of the room, giving it an industrial feel.

In [[Generation VII]], Agatha's room has a dark color scheme, with moss growing in between the purple floor tiles. The battlefield is surrounded by six dark, stylized pillars, each of them housing what seems like a {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}, giving off an eerie blue light.

The fourth room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. However, unlike the previous rooms before it, once a Trainer advances through the doors to the fourth room, they will automatically travel through the room to face off with the final Elite Four member. This will only happen in [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, however. In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, the Trainer will advance to the fourth room normally.

In [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, the room enters in a long, narrow pathway that curves around in a sideways 'S' shape. The pathway will end in with a battle arena where [[Lance]] will be standing, either at the end of it or in the middle of it. There are many Pokémon statues surrounding the battle arena, but these are moved to the pathway in [[Generation III]], and the main battle arena is surrounded by six large fang-shaped statues.

In [[Generation II]], [[Karen]] is the current owner of the fourth room, and it is like any other room within the Elite Four. The room has been redesigned and customized now with a deep, dark pit left and right of the battle arena. There is a narrow bridge connected to the batting arena where Karen stands waiting for battle.

In [[Generation IV]], Karen has this room again. The room is shaped like her old Generation II room. The pit, however, is now filled with blue crystals. The floor is purple with a star pattern and stage curtains are hung behind Karen, corresponding with the movie star look of Karen in this generation.

In [[Generation VII]], although the room is once again housed by Lance, there is no pathway leading up to it, unlike in the previous games where he owns the room. The room has turquoise floor tiles and golden walls. The six pillars standing around the battlefield have a dragon scale pattern on them and four declarations shaped like a dragon's fang at each of their bases. Lance, who is waiting for new challengers at the end of the room, is accompanied by his {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} standing next to him.

Once a Trainer defeats the final member of the Elite Four, they will go on to the Champion's room. The current Champion awaits in his room for the final battle to unfold. The Champion's room will automatically direct the Trainer to the Champion, with no opportunity for them to open their menu.

In [[Generation I|Generations I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, the Champion is {{ga|Blue}}{{sup/1}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}/{{ga|Trace}}{{sup/7|PE}}, who had become the {{pkmn|Champion}} just recently. The battlefield is a small room, with two entrances; one that leads from the fourth room, the other leads to the [[Hall of Fame]].

In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, the Champion is [[Lance]], formerly the fourth Elite Four member, who continues to use {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon. The room has a long hall decorated with {{p|Dratini}} statues (regular statues in Gold and Silver) left and right of the path. At the end of the hall, the player reaches an elevated part of the room where Lance awaits. Behind him are double doors that lead to the Hall of Fame. In Generation IV, this room is gold-colored, with a red carpet going down the middle and moving gears on the walls.

===Hall of Fame===
[[File:Indigo Plateau Hall of Fame LGPE.png|thumb|250px|The Hall of Fame in Generation VII]]
{{main|Hall of Fame}}
Once the Champion is defeated, there is a great congratulations and the victor will be recorded in the Hall of Fame and made current Champion. The Hall of Fame is a record kept by the [[Pokémon League]] of all the Pokémon Trainers who have ever defeated the Pokémon League. In the hallway to the Hall of Fame recording room, [[Professor Oak]] is present to congratulate the player. It is a fairly large room that only contains a large computer. The Hall of Fame will record the [[Trainer ID number|Trainer's ID number]], name, and [[party]]. For each Pokémon of the player's party, the [[Pokémon (species)|species]], name, [[gender]], [[level]], and area met are recorded; the gender is not recorded prior to Generation II and the area met is not recorded prior to Generation III.

After becoming Champion, the player returns home, rather than staying at the Pokémon League to fight challengers. Prior to [[Generation VII]], the previous Champion keeps his position. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, however, the player keeps the title of Champion, and {{ga|Trace}} is instead challenging them to retake his title at the end of the gauntlet.

==Trainers==
In [[Generation]]s {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}}, {{ga|Silver}} can be {{pkmn|battle}}d here on {{DL|Days of the week|Monday}}s and {{DL|Days of the week|Wednesday}}s following the battle against him at [[Mt. Moon]] (as well as the [[Multi Battle]] against [[Lance]] and [[Clair]] in the [[Dragon's Den]] in Generation IV). Silver will appear to halt the {{player}} for a battle as they walk towards the steps to enter the Elite Four's domain.

In [[Generation VII]], the player can fight {{ga|Red}} outside the Pokémon League building if they have defeated at least six [[Master Trainer]]s and have six Pokémon in their [[party]]. Like during all Master Trainer battles, the player can't use [[item]]s from their [[Bag]] during this battle. After being defeated, Red will grant the player the title of [[Pokémon Master|Battle Master]] before leaving, though he will reappear for a [[rematch]] each time the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]].

[[File:Gym Leader Elite Four Stadium.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Pokémon Stadium]]
[[File:Gym Leader Elite Four Stadium 2.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Pokémon Stadium 2]]
===Pokémon Stadium series===
{{main|Indigo Plateau/Stadium series}}
Fields based on those of the Indigo Plateau appear in [[Pokémon Stadium]]'s [[Gym Leader Castle]] and {{g|Stadium 2}}'s Johto Gym Leader Castle. Just like in the [[core series]] games, the player has to defeat all the Elite Four members in order to reach the Champion. In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] games, after defeating the Champion and entering the Hall of Fame, the player earns a special reward.

====Pokémon Stadium====
In Pokémon Stadium, clearing Indigo Plateau earns the player a random [[gift Pokémon]] from eight different possibilities: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Hitmonchan}}, {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, or {{p|Kabuto}}.

When the {{ga|Blue|Rival}} is beaten in Round 1, the prize Pokémon will be holding a [[Normal Box]] if traded to [[Generation II]], which contains a [[Decoration#Trophies|Silver Trophy]]. When the Rival is beaten in Round 2, the prize Pokémon will be holding a [[Gorgeous Box]], which contains a [[Decoration#Trophies|Gold Trophy]].

====Pokémon Stadium 2====
In Pokémon Stadium 2, as a reward for clearing Indigo Plateau for the first time in each round, the player unlocks a new mode for the [[Game Boy Tower]]. Clearing Round 1 unlocks either a {{p|Doduo}} Sticker mode (if not all [[Stadium Cup]]s have been beaten) or a {{p|Dodrio}} Sticker mode (if all Stadium Cups have been beaten) in Game Boy Tower for the [[Generation I]] games; clearing Round 2 unlocks the same mode, but for the [[Generation II]] games. Furthermore, the player will be granted access to the Kanto [[Gym Leader Castle]].

Additionally, each time the player clears Indigo Plateau with a team that was not a preregistered team and that contained no rental Pokémon, they are given the opportunity to [[Move Reminder|reteach]] a move to one Pokémon from the victorious team.

==In animation==

===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
Indigo Plateau first appeared at the end of ''[[EP073|Bad To The Bone]]'', after {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} left for the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. In the [[EP074|following episode]], Ash and the others helped to run the flame of {{p|Moltres}} to Indigo Stadium, and they officially reached Indigo Plateau. They stayed there until the end of the tournament in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]''.

The Indigo Plateau Conference was conducted between the 256 participating {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, taking place on five different fields. The preliminary rounds were fought on four fields themed around water, grass, rock, and ice, respectively. The Top 16 Trainers who won a match at each of these fields, including Ash, advanced to the tournament finals, which were conducted at Indigo Stadium. Ash's [[rival]] {{Gary}} also competed in the tournament, but was eliminated in the fourth preliminary round. Ash was ultimately defeated by his new friend and rival, [[Ritchie]], in the fifth round, with Ritchie too losing in the sixth round and the tournament's ultimate winner being left unrevealed.

Indigo Plateau is also the home of Pokémon League Village, where Ash, his friends, and all the other Trainers stayed during the events of the League. In addition to houses for the Trainers to stay in, the Village also contains a [[Pokémon Center]], shops, and restaurants. All League participants dine for free here.

===={{aniseries|RS}}====
From ''[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'' to ''[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone!]]'', Indigo Plateau hosted the [[Kanto Grand Festival]]. {{an|May}} and her rivals [[Drew]], [[Harley]], and [[Solidad]] joined the competition along with several other {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s who successfully collected five {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]]s from the Kanto region. 270 contestants competed in the preliminary [[Appeal|Appeals Round]], which was held in two separate stadiums, but only 64 advanced to the main competition. In the end, Solidad emerged victorious, earning the [[Ribbon Cup]] and the title of [[Top Coordinator]].

To attend all of the Trainers who come to participate in these events, the local Pokémon Center is larger than most others in the region. It accommodates the Coordinators taking part in the Kanto Grand Festival and it has a dining hall where the party to mark the end of the competition is held.

[[Fennel Valley]], where the [[Battle Pyramid]] was located for a while, is located nearby.

In {{aniseries|HZ}}, Indigo Plateau is also the site of [[Indigo Academy]], a school for Pokémon Trainers. It hands out [[Pokédex]]es and [[first partner Pokémon]] to new students, such as [[Liko]] and [[Ann]], who started studying there in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]''. After Liko begun traveling with the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], she started to attend classes remotely. While she returned to the academy for a year following the events in ''[[HZ089|Where the Adventure Leads]]'', she eventually resumed traveling alongside [[Roy]] in ''[[HZ091|Eyes to the Skies Once Again (Part Two)]]''.

{{OBP|Red|Origins}} arrived at Indigo Plateau in ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', where he challenged and defeated the Elite Four. Once he had defeated [[Lance]], he found out that he still had to battle the Champion, who turned out to be his rival, {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}. After a hard-fought battle, Red emerged victorious, making him the new Champion and worthy of entering the Hall of Fame.

The battle arenas at the Indigo Plateau seem to have self-repairing systems, automatically fixing any possible damage caused to the arenas during battles.

Indigo Plateau first appeared in ''[[PG03|The Challenger]]'', where {{ga|Blue}} challenged and defeated the Elite Four. After claiming the title of Champion, {{ga|Red}} arrived to challenge him.

Indigo Plateau reappeared in ''[[PG05|The Legacy]]'', where [[Looker]] and {{ga|Silver}} were seen talking about [[Giovanni]] outside of the Pokémon League building. After they had finished talking, Silver started walking towards the building, intending to challenge the Elite Four.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], every winner of the Indigo Plateau Pokémon League tournament has come from [[Pallet Town]].

===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
In ''[[PS026|Holy Moltres]]'', [[Team Rocket]] was revealed to have {{pkmn2|caught}} {{DL|Legendary birds (Adventures)|Moltres}} at the Indigo Plateau.

In ''[[PS039|Just a Spearow Carrier]]'' and ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'', {{adv|Red}} took part in the ninth triennial Indigo League Tournament at the Indigo Plateau. {{adv|Blue}}, {{adv|Green}}, and a masked {{pkmn|Trainer}} called Dr. O also participated in the tournament and made it to the semi-finals, along with Red. Despite his success, Red was dismayed to find out that he and Blue were set up to face each other in the semi-finals instead of the finals.

In the first semi-final battle, Green was defeated by Dr. O, who turned out to be a disguised {{adv|Professor Oak}}, who had exploited his knowledge of Green's {{wp|ornithophobia}}, a result of her being kidnapped by {{p|Ho-Oh|a giant bird Pokémon}} as a toddler, to his advantage by using a {{p|Spearow}} against her. When Professor Oak asked why Green had stolen his [[Blasty|Squirtle]], Green revealed that, as a Pallet Town Trainer like Red and Blue, she had wanted to have the same privilege of owning a [[Pokédex]] and going on an adventure like they had. Professor Oak agreed to this on the condition that Green would not continue stealing things, making her a [[Pokédex holder]] as well.

After Professor Oak withdrew from the competition, having already won himself a championship years before, Red and Blue's semi-final battle was changed into the final battle of the tournament, much to Red's pleasure. Red eventually won the battle, making him a [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. Their battle was observed by [[Elite Four#Indigo Elite Four|four shadowy figures]] from the edge of the stadium.

===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
In ''[[PS076|Take a Chance on Chansey]]'', [[Agatha]] revealed that she had confronted Professor Oak in the finals of the first triennial Indigo League Tournament, with Oak having emerged victorious after a gruelling eight-hour battle.

===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
[[File:Indigo Plateau approach Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in the {{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}]]
Starting from ''[[PS154|Yikes, It's Yanma!]]'', the Indigo Plateau hosted an {{wp|Exhibition game|exhibition tournament}} between the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Johto]] and Kanto in order to reveal the identity of the [[Masked Man]]. For the event, the [[Magnet Train]] line was changed to travel through the Pokémon League in order to transport the Gym Leaders there.

The tournament was interrupted when [[Neo Team Rocket]] attacked the stadium by first having {{tc|Executive}}s [[Carl]] and [[Sham]] hack into its systems in ''[[PS164|Slick Slowking]]'', followed by the Gym Leaders being trapped inside the speeding Magnet Train while fighting Neo {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s in ''[[PS165|Lugia and Ho-Oh on the Loose, Part 1]]'', after which the Masked Man himself showed up with {{adv|Tower duo|Lugia and Ho-Oh}}. {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Crystal}} fought against the Masked Man, eventually joined by [[Misty]], {{adv|Blaine}}, and [[Lt. Surge]], whom the {{adv|Legendary beasts}} had chosen as their masters in preparation for this very moment. Despite being faced by multiple strong opponents, the Masked Man ultimately managed to get away with what he had wanted: the recipe for building the [[GS Ball]] from [[Kurt]], who had been in the audience.

In ''[[PS180|The Last Battle XIV]]'', it was revealed that while the exhibition tournament had been interrupted, [[Clair]] had reported her defeat against Blaine aboard the Magnet Train, meaning that Kanto had won the tournament with four wins, three losses, and one draw. However, due to the damages the stadium had suffered, the actual Pokémon League tournament could not be conducted.

===Pokémon Pocket Monsters===
[[File:Indigo Plateau PM.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]]]]
{{PPM|Red}} arrived at the Indigo Plateau in ''[[PM033|To the Pokémon League!!]]'' in order to challenge the Elite Four, managing to defeat [[Lorelei]].

Red returned to the Indigo Plateau in ''[[PM106|A Challenge to the Elite Four!]]'' in order to challenge the Johto Elite Four.

===The Electric Tale of Pikachu===
[[File:Indigo Plateau EToP.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]]]
Like in {{aniseries|OS}}, the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]] was held at the Indigo Plateau in this {{pkmn|manga}}, taking place in ''[[ET12|Welcome to the Big Leagues]]'' and ''[[ET13|The Indigo Finals]]''. Although the manga was based on ''Pokémon the Series: The Beginning'', there were still several notable differences between the two, such as {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} entering the conference as well, and {{Gary}} being defeated by [[Ritchie]] instead of [[Melissa]].
{{-}}

===Pokémon Zensho===
[[File:Indigo Plateau Zensho.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Zensho]]]]
{{Zensho|Satoshi}} went to the Indigo Plateau in ''[[PZ10|Indigo Plateau]]'' to challenge the Elite Four. After defeating the Elite Four, he found out that his rival, {{Zensho|Shigeru}}, had already done that before him, having claimed the title of Pokémon League Champion for himself. After a tough battle between {{Zensho|Satoshi's Charizard}} and Shigeru's {{p|Blastoise}}, Satoshi finally emerged victorious, making him the new Pokémon League Champion. [[Professor Oak]] then arrived to congratulate Satoshi of his victory and to tell him and Shigeru about {{p|Mewtwo}}, prompting the two young {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to head to [[Cerulean Cave]] in order to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it.

===Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure===
[[File:Indigo Plateau JBA.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure]]]]
The Indigo Plateau appeared in ''[[JBA5|Betting on the Name of the Strongest!]]'', where [[Jō]] defeated the [[Elite Four]] and [[Lance]] with his {{TP|Jō|Totodile}}. Afterwards, he learned about [[Kanto]] and decided to challenge its [[Gym]]s.

==Trivia==
[[File:APC bg Indigo Plateau.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau as a backdrop in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}'s [[Alola Photo Club]]]]
* In [[Generation I]] only, the player will be unable to defeat [[Agatha]] and reach the [[Hall of Fame]] if there are no available moves (with [[PP]] remaining) that can damage {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, either directly or indirectly such as via {{status|confusion}}. This is due to the fact that in this generation, Ghost-type Pokémon are immune to {{m|Struggle}} (being a {{type|Normal}} move) and all opposing Pokémon have infinite PP. This applies to battles against the {{tc|Channeler}}s in the [[Pokémon Tower]] as well.
** See more details in [[Pokémon Tower#Trivia|Pokémon Tower → Trivia]].
* In all of the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}} in which Indigo Plateau appears, the first member of the [[Elite Four]] uses both a {{p|Slowbro}} and a {{p|Jynx}} in {{pkmn|battle}}.
* In the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, this is the only [[Pokémon League]] where the rooms of the different Elite Four members do not all share the same [[list of overworld music themes|background music]].
** [[Lorelei]]'s room shares its background music with [[Gym]]s, [[Bruno]]'s with the [[Team Rocket Hideout|Rocket Hideout]], [[Agatha]]'s with the [[Pokémon Tower]], and [[Lance]]'s with the rest of Indigo Plateau.
** In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the lobby of Indigo Plateau also shares its background music with Gyms.
* In the [[Generation I]] games, due to an oversight, [[wild Pokémon]] can be found by [[fishing]] in Lorelei's room.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Indigo Plateau and {{rt|26|Kanto}} are the only locations that can be {{m|Fly|flown}} to from both [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Indigo Plateau is located significantly further south than in any of its other appearances, being located to the southwest of [[Pewter City]] rather than to the northwest.
* In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the Indigo Plateau appears as a backdrop in the [[Alola Photo Club]], if the player has a Pokémon who originated from either a [[Generation I]] game or {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
* The name of Exemann, the {{tc|Super Nerd}} who [[In-game trade|trades]] the player an {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Exeggutor}} at the lobby in {{LGPE}}, could be a [[List of references to popular culture in Pokémon|reference]] to the ''{{wp|Sonic the Hedgehog}}'' antagonist, [https://info.sonicretro.org/Dr._Eggman Dr. Eggman].

'''Route 22''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|２２番道路|２２ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 22'') is a route in central [[Kalos]], connecting [[Santalune City]] and {{kal|Victory Road}}. The route is also known as '''Détourner Way''' (Japanese: '''デトルネ{{tt|通り|どおり}}''' ''Détourner Way'').

==Route description==
North of the route, a race track can partially be seen. Based on NPC statements, it can be surmised as a track for {{p|Rhyhorn}} racing. Opposite the entrance to Victory Road, there is a series of ledges which provides a shortcut to Santalune City. In the south of the route, there is a river and {{OBP|waterfall|obstacle}} which leads to the [[Chamber of Emptiness]] and other Trainers.

==In the manga==
[[File:Kalos Route 22 Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Route 22 in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
Route 22 first appeared in ''[[PS554|Kangaskhan...Kangascan't]]'', where {{adv|X}} and his friends ventured to the route in an attempt to figure out the reason behind [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Li'l Kanga]]'s [[Mega Evolution|transformation]] from [[PS550|earlier]], but they failed to repeat the process. They also first met [[Viola]] on this route.

In ''[[PS587|Malamar Traps]]'', the {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s stationed at Route 22 reported that they were under attack by [[Drasna]].

In ''[[PS590|Yveltal Steals]]'', [[Cassius]] and his assistants traveled to Route 22 in order to inspect a Pokémon withdrawal that [[Emma]] had [[PS589|just made]] from the [[Pokémon Storage System]] near the area. Upon arriving at the route, they noticed a huge explosion happening near {{rt|20|Kalos}}, and decided to head there.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Despite a couple of Trainers and on this route and wild Pokémon in the yellow flower patch being only accessible by the use of {{m|Waterfall}}, which isn't possible outside of battle until the {{player}} has all eight [[Badge]]s, the [[level]]s of these Trainers' Pokémon are closer to the NPC Pokémon levels around the point in the game when the player becomes able to use {{m|Surf}} outside of battle after their {{badge|Rumble|third Badge}}. This may suggest that this area was intended to not require Waterfall.
* This route and Kanto's {{rt|22|Kanto}} are routes with the same name which give early access to the place where the player's badges are checked for access to the Victory Road and the Pokémon League, before they can obtain all of their eight badges.

North of the route, a race track can partially be seen. Based on NPC statements, it can be surmised as a track for {{p|Rhyhorn}} racing. Opposite the entrance to Victory Road, there is a series of ledges which provides a shortcut to Santalune City. In the south of the route, there is a river and {{OBP|waterfall|obstacle}} which leads to the [[Chamber of Emptiness]] and other Trainers.

==In the manga==
[[File:Kalos Route 22 Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Route 22 in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
Route 22 first appeared in ''[[PS554|Kangaskhan...Kangascan't]]'', where {{adv|X}} and his friends ventured to the route in an attempt to figure out the reason behind [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Li'l Kanga]]'s [[Mega Evolution|transformation]] from [[PS550|earlier]], but they failed to repeat the process. They also first met [[Viola]] on this route.

In ''[[PS587|Malamar Traps]]'', the {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s stationed at Route 22 reported that they were under attack by [[Drasna]].

In ''[[PS590|Yveltal Steals]]'', [[Cassius]] and his assistants traveled to Route 22 in order to inspect a Pokémon withdrawal that [[Emma]] had [[PS589|just made]] from the [[Pokémon Storage System]] near the area. Upon arriving at the route, they noticed a huge explosion happening near {{rt|20|Kalos}}, and decided to head there.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Despite a couple of Trainers and on this route and wild Pokémon in the yellow flower patch being only accessible by the use of {{m|Waterfall}}, which isn't possible outside of battle until the {{player}} has all eight [[Badge]]s, the [[level]]s of these Trainers' Pokémon are closer to the NPC Pokémon levels around the point in the game when the player becomes able to use {{m|Surf}} outside of battle after their {{badge|Rumble|third Badge}}. This may suggest that this area was intended to not require Waterfall.
* This route and Kanto's {{rt|22|Kanto}} are routes with the same name which give early access to the place where the player's badges are checked, before they can obtain all of their eight badges.

===Name origin===
''Détourner'' is French for "to divert".

'''Route 23''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|２３番道路|２３ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 23'') is the final numbered route in [[Unova]]. It is located in northeastern Unova and connects the [[Giant Chasm]] to {{OBP|Victory Road|Black 2 and White 2}}. It can only be accessed after the player has defeated [[Ghetsis]] in the Giant Chasm's deepest part.

==Route description==
Route 23 connects {{OBP|Victory Road|Black 2 and White 2}} with the [[Giant Chasm]]. It is a mountain-like road, with many mountainous features, such as ponds and crevasses. The northwest portion of the route features a puzzle involving {{m|Strength}} and {{m|Cut}}. There are narrow paths between trees and raised platforms, making it hard to navigate and find the right path.

=== Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 ===
An {{p|Azelf}} appears here after speaking to [[Professor Juniper]] in the [[Cave of Being]]. If defeated or run from, it respawns after entering the [[Hall of Fame]].

==Trivia==
*The music that plays on this route features a faster, remixed version of the theme that plays in [[Professor Rowan]]'s laboratory in the [[Generation IV]] games.
* This route and {{rt|23|Kanto}} in [[Kanto]] both have the same name, and are the last routes before their region's respective Pokémon Leagues. However, the positions of Route 23 and {{OBP|Victory Road|Kanto}} in relation to the [[Indigo Plateau|Pokémon League in Kanto]] are inverted in Unova.
** Both also do not exist in another pair of games taking place in the region; Kanto's doesn't exist in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, while Unova's doesn't exist in the original {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* Route 23's background music was remixed for [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]. It can be heard in Wii U version on the {{OBP|Kalos Pokémon League|stage}}. In [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]], it can play on any stage from the Pokémon series.

The '''Indigo Plateau''' (Japanese: '''セキエイ{{ruby|高原|こうげん}}''' ''Sekiei Plateau'') serves as the capital for the [[Pokémon League]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is the final destination for [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collecting [[Indigo League|Indigo]] or [[Johto League]] [[Badge]]s. This is where the Trainers who have defeated all of the eight [[Gym Leader]]s of either Kanto or [[Johto]] battle against the [[Elite Four]] and the [[Pokémon Champion]]. In the {{pkmn|animated series}}, it is the location of the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]], the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], and the Pokémon League Village.

It is located just north of {{ka|Victory Road}} and {{rt|23|Kanto}}, and east of [[Mt. Silver]]. In the [[Generation I]] games, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the only way to reach the Indigo Plateau is by going through Route 23. In the [[Generation II]] games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the Indigo Plateau is reached by going through {{rt|26|Kanto}}. In all the games, Trainers must venture through Victory Road, a lengthy [[cave]] acting as a final test for Trainers.

The Elite Four must be battled consecutively, with breaks to the [[Pokémon Center]] prohibited. Trainers are unable to go back or return to previous rooms. The only way to open the door and progress through each room is to defeat the Elite Four member of that room. Each member of the Elite Four is stronger than the previous member, and like Gym Leaders, each specializes in a different [[type]].

==Slogan==
'''''The ultimate goal of Trainers!'''''{{sup/1|RBY}}{{sup/3|FRLG}} or '''''The Ultimate Goal for Trainers!'''''{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/4|HGSS}} and '''''The highest Pokémon authority!''''' [non-Japanese Generations I and III only] (Japanese, all generations: '''ポケモントレーナーの　頂点''' ''The Pokémon Trainer's zenith'' and '''ポケモン　最高機関''' ''The highest organization on Pokémon'').

==Geography==
===Superstructure===
[[File:Indigo Plateau HGSS.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Generation IV]]
In the {{pkmn|games}}, Indigo Plateau is depicted as a large building surrounded by mountainous areas. Indigo Plateau area changes in every generation, however in every generation there is a small area at the entrance that connects the exit of {{ka|Victory Road}} to Indigo Plateau.

In [[Generation I]], there is a narrow passageway, accessed from the north exit of Route 23.

In [[Generation II]], the area between Victory Road and Indigo Plateau has become Route 23.

In [[Generation III]], there is a flight of stairs that leads up to Indigo Plateau from Route 23, with a small area outside the entrance with a couple of giant statues.

In [[Generation IV]], the pathway from Route 23 is the same as Generation II, but much fancier, and has become the outside of Indigo Plateau. There are two archways each with a small set of stairs above them and {{i|Poké Ball}} statues that appear left and right across the path. The {{FB|Headbutt|tree}}s on both sides of the path can be {{m|Headbutt}}ed, but they do not contain any [[wild Pokémon]].

In [[Generation VII]], the exterior is highly similar to how it was in Generation III, with several big statues standing on both sides of a flight of stairs, accompanied by multiple lush trees.

On the ground floor is a combined [[Poké Mart]] and [[Pokémon Center]]. This is the last safe stop before Trainers make their way up to the upper floors, therefore, Trainers can purchase and stock up on items, as well as heal their Pokémon before leaving. There are a number of things a {{player}} can do on this floor. A [[Pokémon Center lady]] heals all status conditions, recharges [[HP]] and [[PP]] of all [[party]] Pokémon, free of charge. She is located at the main counter just as the player enters Indigo Plateau. It also hosts the Cable Club and the Union Room, which facilitates multiplayer gameplay and link players to battle and trade one another. Trainers also have access to a [[PC]]. Trainers can also buy items from the Poké Mart. The Poké Mart stocks rare items that can only be found in Indigo Plateau.

In Generation II, the layout of the ground floor is slightly modified, with the Cable Club and the Union Room relocated upstairs. The PC is now located in the middle of the room, while the Pokémon Center lady is located on the left of it, and the Poké Mart is located on the right of it. There is also an old man standing near the counter that will ask the player if they miss their [[Player's house#Johto|home]], and will use an {{p|Abra}} to {{m|Teleport}} the Trainer back to [[New Bark Town]]. He offers this because the Trainer cannot {{m|Fly}} to Johto from the Indigo Plateau. He will disappear after the player defeats the Elite Four and Champion for the first time.

In Generation III, the ground floor is similar to the ground floor in Generation I; however, the Cable Club and the Union Room are relocated upstairs. There are a couple of Trainers waiting or resting from training in {{ka|Victory Road}}.

[[File:Red Rematch Location LGPE.png|thumb|250px|Red's rematch location]]
In Generation IV, the ground floor is revamped with a regal red motif with stairs in the center covered in a red carpet. Like the Pokémon Centers in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the wireless facilities are located in the same room as the Pokémon Center lady, one flight of stairs above. To the right is the Poké Mart and the stairs to the Wi-Fi Club. The man with an Abra is still there, but he won't Teleport the player, saying that intimidated Trainers just Fly back home; in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the player can Fly to any Fly destination in either region from outside the building. To the right of the Abra man is a terminal where the player can compare records with other players that have been contacted wirelessly, similar to the rooms in [[Jubilife TV]].

In Generation VII, the ground floor is a big hall with a mainly golden color scheme, and houses no other features besides the Pokémon Center and the Poké Mart. Like in Generation IV, a red carpet is laid on the floor, stretching from the front door to the entrance to the [[Elite Four]]'s domain. On the west side of the hall is [[Move Reminder|Madame Memorial]], who can teach a Pokémon any of its level-up moves at the cost of one [[Heart Scale]] per taught move. Next to the Poké Mart counter is a {{tc|Super Nerd}}, who offers to [[In-game trade|trade]] the player an {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Exeggutor}} for a Kantonian Exeggutor as many times as they like. After the player has defeated the Pokémon League, a {{tc|Poké Maniac}} appears in the hall, selling the player all the Kanto Pokémon [[Mega Stone]]s for {{PDollar}}30,000 each, excluding the [[Kanto first partner Pokémon]] and {{p|Mewtwo}} Mega Stones.

Once Trainers climb the first staircase, they will reach the first room, and upon entering the door will lock so they are unable to return. The door to the second room is also locked and the only way to open the door and progress through each room is to defeat the Elite Four member of that room.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Lorelei]] is in control of this room, thus is the first member of the Elite Four who must be defeated. In Generation II and IV, Will is the Elite Four member present.

In Generation I, the room is filled with [[water tile|water]], with a small bridge connecting the entrance to the battle area—the player can even {{m|Surf}} on it and [[fishing|fish]] in the water, although wild Pokémon can only be encountered by fishing. In Generation III, the room contains ice pillars instead, and does not have any water.

In [[Generation II]], the room is filled with a pool of ice, with a small bridge connecting the entrance to the battle area, where Will is standing.

In [[Generation III]], Lorelei's room is a plain room with six large statues of ice surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], the room has a purple tiled floor, with floating transparent cubes bobbing around the room, rising seemingly from a black pit. The shape of the room is reminiscent of Generation I.

In [[Generation VII]], Lorelei's room now sports an icy blue color scheme, with cold vapor floating in the air and six stylized ice pillars surrounding the battlefield. Lorelei herself is seen sitting on her {{p|Lapras}}, waiting for the next challenger to arrive.

The second room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. Like the room before it, the doors to other rooms will lock so Trainers are unable to return or advance forward.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Bruno]] is the owner of this room, and has designed it according to his {{type|Fighting}} specialties. The room is full of giant boulders that surround the battlefield, and a Pokémon statue in the corner.

In [[Generation II]], Bruno, the former owner of the room has been replaced by [[Koga]], the former [[Gym Leader]], still using his signature {{type|Poison}} Pokémon. The room has been redesigned and customized to meet the needs of his Poison Pokémon, which now has a grassy floor with many trees towering over the area.

In [[Generation III]], Bruno's room changes from the rocky environment it was to a plain room with six large statues of stone surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], Koga once again claims this room. The room is shaped much like his Generation II room. The floor is covered in grass, but this time Koga stands in the middle of a large rectangle of stone. The sides of the room show the shadows of trees. The stone and wall supports are adorned with moss.

In [[Generation VII]], Bruno's room sports a light brown color scheme, with six stylized stone pillars standing around the battlefield. A bright light is shining into the room, shining off the floor and walls.

The third room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. Like the room before it, the doors to other rooms will lock so Trainers are unable to return or advance forward.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Agatha]] is the owner of this room, and has designed it according to her own {{type|Ghost}} specialties. The room is full of giant gravestones that surround the battlefield. There are gravestones on both sides of the battling arena, and a Pokémon statue in the bottom left-hand corner.

In [[Generation II]], Agatha, the former owner of the room has been replaced by [[Bruno]], the former owner of the second room, who has been promoted and has now taken her place, still using his signature {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon. The room has been redesigned and customized now with pools of lava bubbling left and right of the battle arena. There is a narrow bridge connected to the battling arena where Bruno stands waiting for battle.

In [[Generation III]], Agatha's room changes from the eerie environment with gravestones to a plain room with six large statues surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], Bruno has this room, and it once again is roughly the shape of his Generation II room. The pit is once again filled with lava, but two large tubs line the side of the room, giving it an industrial feel.

In [[Generation VII]], Agatha's room has a dark color scheme, with moss growing in between the purple floor tiles. The battlefield is surrounded by six dark, stylized pillars, each of them housing what seems like a {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}, giving off an eerie blue light.

The fourth room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. However, unlike the previous rooms before it, once a Trainer advances through the doors to the fourth room, they will automatically travel through the room to face off with the final Elite Four member. This will only happen in [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, however. In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, the Trainer will advance to the fourth room normally.

In [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, the room enters in a long, narrow pathway that curves around in a sideways 'S' shape. The pathway will end in with a battle arena where [[Lance]] will be standing, either at the end of it or in the middle of it. There are many Pokémon statues surrounding the battle arena, but these are moved to the pathway in [[Generation III]], and the main battle arena is surrounded by six large fang-shaped statues.

In [[Generation II]], [[Karen]] is the current owner of the fourth room, and it is like any other room within the Elite Four. The room has been redesigned and customized now with a deep, dark pit left and right of the battle arena. There is a narrow bridge connected to the batting arena where Karen stands waiting for battle.

In [[Generation IV]], Karen has this room again. The room is shaped like her old Generation II room. The pit, however, is now filled with blue crystals. The floor is purple with a star pattern and stage curtains are hung behind Karen, corresponding with the movie star look of Karen in this generation.

In [[Generation VII]], although the room is once again housed by Lance, there is no pathway leading up to it, unlike in the previous games where he owns the room. The room has turquoise floor tiles and golden walls. The six pillars standing around the battlefield have a dragon scale pattern on them and four declarations shaped like a dragon's fang at each of their bases. Lance, who is waiting for new challengers at the end of the room, is accompanied by his {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} standing next to him.

Once a Trainer defeats the final member of the Elite Four, they will go on to the Champion's room. The current Champion awaits in his room for the final battle to unfold. Like the previous four rooms, the Champion's room will automatically direct the Trainer to the Champion.

In [[Generation I|Generations I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, the Champion is {{ga|Blue}}{{sup/1}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}/{{ga|Trace}}{{sup/7|PE}}, who had become the {{pkmn|Champion}} just recently. The battlefield is a small room, with two entrances; one that leads from the fourth room, the other leads to the [[Hall of Fame]].

In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, the Champion is [[Lance]], formerly the fourth Elite Four member, who continues to use {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon. The room has a long hall decorated with {{p|Dratini}} statues (regular statues in Gold and Silver) left and right of the path. At the end of the hall, the player reaches an elevated part of the room where Lance awaits. Behind him are double doors that lead to the Hall of Fame. In Generation IV, this room is gold-colored, with a red carpet going down the middle and moving gears on the walls.

===Hall of Fame===
[[File:Indigo Plateau Hall of Fame LGPE.png|thumb|250px|The Hall of Fame in Generation VII]]
{{main|Hall of Fame}}
Once the Champion is defeated, there is a great congratulations and the victor will be recorded in the Hall of Fame and made current Champion. The Hall of Fame is a record kept by the [[Pokémon League]] of all the Pokémon Trainers who have ever defeated the Pokémon League. In the hallway to the Hall of Fame recording room, [[Professor Oak]] is present to congratulate the player. It is a fairly large room that only contains a large computer. The Hall of Fame will record the [[Trainer ID number|Trainer's ID number]], name, and [[party]]. For each Pokémon of the player's party, the [[Pokémon (species)|species]], name, [[gender]], [[level]], and area met are recorded; the gender is not recorded prior to Generation II and the area met is not recorded prior to Generation III.

After becoming Champion, the player returns home, rather than staying at the Pokémon League to fight challengers. Prior to [[Generation VII]], the previous Champion keeps his position. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, however, the player keeps the title of Champion, and {{ga|Trace}} is instead challenging them to retake his title at the end of the gauntlet.

==Trainers==
In [[Generation]]s {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}}, {{ga|Silver}} can be {{pkmn|battle}}d here on {{DL|Days of the week|Monday}}s and {{DL|Days of the week|Wednesday}}s following the battle against him at [[Mt. Moon]] (as well as the [[Multi Battle]] against [[Lance]] and [[Clair]] in the [[Dragon's Den]] in Generation IV). Silver will appear to halt the {{player}} for a battle as they walk towards the steps to enter the Elite Four's domain.

In [[Generation VII]], the player can fight {{ga|Red}} outside the Pokémon League building if they have defeated at least six [[Master Trainer]]s and have six Pokémon in their [[party]]. Like during all Master Trainer battles, the player can't use [[item]]s from their [[Bag]] during this battle. After being defeated, Red will grant the player the title of [[Pokémon Master|Battle Master]] before leaving, though he will reappear for a [[rematch]] each time the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]].

==In the side series==
[[File:Gym Leader Elite Four Stadium.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Pokémon Stadium]]
[[File:Gym Leader Elite Four Stadium 2.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Pokémon Stadium 2]]
===Pokémon Stadium series===
{{main|Indigo Plateau/Stadium series}}
Fields based on those of the Indigo Plateau appear in [[Pokémon Stadium]]'s [[Gym Leader Castle]] and {{g|Stadium 2}}'s Johto Gym Leader Castle. Just like in the [[core series]] games, the player has to defeat all the Elite Four members in order to reach the Champion. In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] games, after defeating the Champion and entering the Hall of Fame, the player earns a special reward.

====Pokémon Stadium====
In Pokémon Stadium, clearing Indigo Plateau earns the player a random [[gift Pokémon]] from eight different possibilities: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Hitmonchan}}, {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, or {{p|Kabuto}}.

When the {{ga|Blue|Rival}} is beaten in Round 1, the prize Pokémon will be holding a [[Normal Box]] if traded to [[Generation II]], which contains a [[Decoration#Trophies|Silver Trophy]]. When the Rival is beaten in Round 2, the prize Pokémon will be holding a [[Gorgeous Box]], which contains a [[Decoration#Trophies|Gold Trophy]].

====Pokémon Stadium 2====
In Pokémon Stadium 2, as a reward for clearing Indigo Plateau for the first time in each round, the player unlocks a new mode for the [[Game Boy Tower]]. Clearing Round 1 unlocks either a {{p|Doduo}} Sticker mode (if not all [[Stadium Cup]]s have been beaten) or a {{p|Dodrio}} Sticker mode (if all Stadium Cups have been beaten) in Game Boy Tower for the [[Generation I]] games; clearing Round 2 unlocks the same mode, but for the [[Generation II]] games. Furthermore, the player will be granted access to the Kanto [[Gym Leader Castle]].

Additionally, each time the player clears Indigo Plateau with a team that was not a preregistered team and that contained no rental Pokémon, they are given the opportunity to [[Move Reminder|reteach]] a move to one Pokémon from the victorious team.
{{-}}

==In the spin-off games==
===[[Pokémon Pinball]]===
In {{g|Pinball}}, Indigo Plateau appears on the Red and Blue tables; catchable {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} include {{p|Spearow}}, {{p|Sandshrew}}, {{p|Machop}}, {{p|Geodude}}, {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Pinsir}}, {{p|Ditto}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mewtwo}}, and {{p|Mew}}.

===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
Artwork of various depictions of the Indigo Plateau is seen in the mindscapes of many Trainers associated with it, including the [[Elite Four]], {{mas|Lance}}, {{mas|Blue}}, {{mas|Kris}}, {{mas|Lyra}}, and {{mas|Chase}}.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
Indigo Plateau first appeared at the end of ''[[EP073|Bad To The Bone]]'', after {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} left for the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. In the [[EP074|following episode]], Ash and the others helped to run the flame of {{p|Moltres}} to Indigo Stadium, and they officially reached Indigo Plateau. They stayed there until the end of the tournament in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]''.

The Indigo Plateau Conference was conducted between the 256 participating {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, taking place on five different fields. The preliminary rounds were fought on four fields themed around water, grass, rock, and ice, respectively. The Top 16 Trainers who won a match at each of these fields, including Ash, advanced to the tournament finals, which were conducted at Indigo Stadium. Ash's [[rival]] {{Gary}} also competed in the tournament, but was eliminated in the fourth preliminary round. Ash was ultimately defeated by his new friend and rival, [[Ritchie]], in the fifth round, with Ritchie too losing in the sixth round and the tournament's ultimate winner being left unrevealed.

Indigo Plateau is also the home of Pokémon League Village, where Ash, his friends, and all the other Trainers stayed during the events of the League. In addition to houses for the Trainers to stay in, the Village also contains a [[Pokémon Center]], shops, and restaurants. All League participants dine for free here.

===={{aniseries|RS}}====
From ''[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'' to ''[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone!]]'', Indigo Plateau hosted the [[Kanto Grand Festival]]. {{an|May}} and her rivals [[Drew]], [[Harley]], and [[Solidad]] joined the competition along with several other {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s who successfully collected five {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]]s from the Kanto region. 270 contestants competed in the preliminary [[Appeal|Appeals Round]], which was held in two separate stadiums, but only 64 advanced to the main competition. In the end, Solidad emerged victorious, earning the [[Ribbon Cup]] and the title of [[Top Coordinator]].

To attend all of the Trainers who come to participate in these events, the local Pokémon Center is larger than most others in the region. It accommodates the Coordinators taking part in the Kanto Grand Festival and it has a dining hall where the party to mark the end of the competition is held.

[[Fennel Valley]], where the [[Battle Pyramid]] was located for a while, is located nearby.

[[File:Indigo Academy.png|thumb|250px|[[Indigo Academy]] in {{aniseries|HZ}}]]
In {{aniseries|HZ}}, Indigo Plateau is also the site of [[Indigo Academy]], a school for Pokémon Trainers. It hands out [[Pokédex]]es and [[first partner Pokémon]] to new students, such as [[Liko]] and [[Ann]], who started studying there in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]''. After Liko begun traveling with the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], she started to attend classes remotely. While she returned to the academy for a year following the events in ''[[HZ089|Where the Adventure Leads]]'', she eventually resumed traveling alongside [[Roy]] in ''[[HZ091|Eyes to the Skies Once Again (Part Two)]]''.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Indigo Plateau PO.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
{{OBP|Red|Origins}} arrived at Indigo Plateau in ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', where he challenged and defeated the Elite Four. Once he had defeated [[Lance]], he found out that he still had to battle the Champion, who turned out to be his rival, {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}. After a hard-fought battle, Red emerged victorious, making him the new Champion and worthy of entering the Hall of Fame.

The battle arenas at the Indigo Plateau seem to have self-repairing systems, automatically fixing any possible damage caused to the arenas during battles.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Indigo Plateau Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], every winner of the Indigo Plateau Pokémon League tournament has come from [[Pallet Town]].

===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
In ''[[PS026|Holy Moltres]]'', [[Team Rocket]] was revealed to have {{pkmn2|caught}} {{DL|Legendary birds (Adventures)|Moltres}} at the Indigo Plateau.

In ''[[PS039|Just a Spearow Carrier]]'' and ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'', {{adv|Red}} took part in the ninth triennial Indigo League Tournament at the Indigo Plateau. {{adv|Blue}}, {{adv|Green}}, and a masked {{pkmn|Trainer}} called Dr. O also participated in the tournament and made it to the semi-finals, along with Red. Despite his success, Red was dismayed to find out that he and Blue were set up to face each other in the semi-finals instead of the finals.

In the first semi-final battle, Green was defeated by Dr. O, who turned out to be a disguised {{adv|Professor Oak}}, who had exploited his knowledge of Green's {{wp|ornithophobia}}, a result of her being kidnapped by {{p|Ho-Oh|a giant bird Pokémon}} as a toddler, to his advantage by using a {{p|Spearow}} against her. When Professor Oak asked why Green had stolen his [[Blasty|Squirtle]], Green revealed that, as a Pallet Town Trainer like Red and Blue, she had wanted to have the same privilege of owning a [[Pokédex]] and going on an adventure like they had. Professor Oak agreed to this on the condition that Green would not continue stealing things, making her a [[Pokédex holder]] as well.

After Professor Oak withdrew from the competition, having already won himself a championship years before, Red and Blue's semi-final battle was changed into the final battle of the tournament, much to Red's pleasure. Red eventually won the battle, making him a [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. Their battle was observed by [[Elite Four#Indigo Elite Four|four shadowy figures]] from the edge of the stadium.

===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
In ''[[PS076|Take a Chance on Chansey]]'', [[Agatha]] revealed that she had confronted Professor Oak in the finals of the first triennial Indigo League Tournament, with Oak having emerged victorious after a gruelling eight-hour battle.

===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
[[File:Indigo Plateau approach Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in the {{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}]]
Starting from ''[[PS154|Yikes, It's Yanma!]]'', the Indigo Plateau hosted an {{wp|Exhibition game|exhibition tournament}} between the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Johto]] and Kanto in order to reveal the identity of the [[Masked Man]]. For the event, the [[Magnet Train]] line was changed to travel through the Pokémon League in order to transport the Gym Leaders there.

The tournament was interrupted when [[Neo Team Rocket]] attacked the stadium by first having {{tc|Executive}}s [[Carl]] and [[Sham]] hack into its systems in ''[[PS164|Slick Slowking]]'', followed by the Gym Leaders being trapped inside the speeding Magnet Train while fighting Neo {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s in ''[[PS165|Lugia and Ho-Oh on the Loose, Part 1]]'', after which the Masked Man himself showed up with {{adv|Tower duo|Lugia and Ho-Oh}}. {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Crystal}} fought against the Masked Man, eventually joined by [[Misty]], {{adv|Blaine}}, and [[Lt. Surge]], whom the {{adv|Legendary beasts}} had chosen as their masters in preparation for this very moment. Despite being faced by multiple strong opponents, the Masked Man ultimately managed to get away with what he had wanted: the recipe for building the [[GS Ball]] from [[Kurt]], who had been in the audience.

In ''[[PS180|The Last Battle XIV]]'', it was revealed that while the exhibition tournament had been interrupted, [[Clair]] had reported her defeat against Blaine aboard the Magnet Train, meaning that Kanto had won the tournament with four wins, three losses, and one draw. However, due to the damages the stadium had suffered, the actual Pokémon League tournament could not be conducted.

===Pokémon Pocket Monsters===
[[File:Indigo Plateau PM.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]]]]
{{PPM|Red}} arrived at the Indigo Plateau in ''[[PM033|To the Pokémon League!!]]'' in order to challenge the Elite Four, managing to defeat [[Lorelei]].

Red returned to the Indigo Plateau in ''[[PM106|A Challenge to the Elite Four!]]'' in order to challenge the Johto Elite Four.

===The Electric Tale of Pikachu===
[[File:Indigo Plateau EToP.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]]]
Like in {{aniseries|OS}}, the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]] was held at the Indigo Plateau in this {{pkmn|manga}}, taking place in ''[[ET12|Welcome to the Big Leagues]]'' and ''[[ET13|The Indigo Finals]]''. Although the manga was based on ''Pokémon the Series: The Beginning'', there were still several notable differences between the two, such as {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} entering the conference as well, and {{Gary}} being defeated by [[Ritchie]] instead of [[Melissa]].
{{-}}

===Pokémon Zensho===
[[File:Indigo Plateau Zensho.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Zensho]]]]
{{Zensho|Satoshi}} went to the Indigo Plateau in ''[[PZ10|Indigo Plateau]]'' to challenge the Elite Four. After defeating the Elite Four, he found out that his rival, {{Zensho|Shigeru}}, had already done that before him, having claimed the title of Pokémon League Champion for himself. After a tough battle between {{Zensho|Satoshi's Charizard}} and Shigeru's {{p|Blastoise}}, Satoshi finally emerged victorious, making him the new Pokémon League Champion. [[Professor Oak]] then arrived to congratulate Satoshi of his victory and to tell him and Shigeru about {{p|Mewtwo}}, prompting the two young {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to head to [[Cerulean Cave]] in order to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it.
{{-}}

===Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure===
[[File:Indigo Plateau JBA.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure]]]]
The Indigo Plateau appeared in ''[[JBA5|Betting on the Name of the Strongest!]]'', where [[Jō]] defeated the [[Elite Four]] and [[Lance]] with his {{TP|Jō|Totodile}}. Afterwards, he learned about [[Kanto]] and decided to challenge its [[Gym]]s.

==Trivia==
[[File:APC bg Indigo Plateau.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau as a backdrop in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}'s [[Alola Photo Club]]]]
* In [[Generation I]] only, the player will be unable to defeat [[Agatha]] and reach the [[Hall of Fame]] if there are no available moves (with [[PP]] remaining) that can damage {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, either directly or indirectly such as via {{status|confusion}}. This is due to the fact that in this generation, Ghost-type Pokémon are immune to {{m|Struggle}} (being a {{type|Normal}} move) and all opposing Pokémon have infinite PP. This applies to battles against the {{tc|Channeler}}s in the [[Pokémon Tower]] as well.
** See more details in [[Pokémon Tower#Trivia|Pokémon Tower → Trivia]].
* In all of the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}} in which Indigo Plateau appears, the first member of the [[Elite Four]] uses both a {{p|Slowbro}} and a {{p|Jynx}} in {{pkmn|battle}}.
* In the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, this is the only [[Pokémon League]] where the rooms of the different Elite Four members do not all share the same [[list of overworld music themes|background music]].
** [[Lorelei]]'s room shares its background music with [[Gym]]s, [[Bruno]]'s with the [[Team Rocket Hideout|Rocket Hideout]], [[Agatha]]'s with the [[Pokémon Tower]], and [[Lance]]'s with the rest of Indigo Plateau.
** In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the lobby of Indigo Plateau also shares its background music with Gyms.
* In the [[Generation I]] games, due to an oversight, [[wild Pokémon]] can be found by [[fishing]] in Lorelei's room.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Indigo Plateau and {{rt|26|Kanto}} are the only locations that can be {{m|Fly|flown}} to from both [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Indigo Plateau is located significantly further south than in any of its other appearances, being located to the southwest of [[Pewter City]] rather than to the northwest.
* In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the Indigo Plateau appears as a backdrop in the [[Alola Photo Club]], if the player has a Pokémon who originated from either a [[Generation I]] game or {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
* The name of Exemann, the {{tc|Super Nerd}} who [[In-game trade|trades]] the player an {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Exeggutor}} at the lobby in {{LGPE}}, could be a [[List of references to popular culture in Pokémon|reference]] to the ''{{wp|Sonic the Hedgehog}}'' antagonist, [https://info.sonicretro.org/Dr._Eggman Dr. Eggman].

The '''Indigo Plateau''' (Japanese: '''セキエイ{{ruby|高原|こうげん}}''' ''Sekiei Plateau'') serves as the capital for the [[Pokémon League]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is the final destination for [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collecting [[Indigo League|Indigo]] or [[Johto League]] [[Badge]]s. This is where the Trainers who have defeated all of the eight [[Gym Leader]]s of either Kanto or [[Johto]] battle against the [[Elite Four]] and the [[Pokémon Champion]]. In the {{pkmn|animated series}}, it is the location of the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]], the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], and the Pokémon League Village.

It is located just north of {{ka|Victory Road}} and {{rt|23|Kanto}}, and east of [[Mt. Silver]]. In the [[Generation I]] games, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the only way to reach the Indigo Plateau is by going through Route 23. In the [[Generation II]] games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the Indigo Plateau is reached by going through {{rt|26|Kanto}}. In all the games, Trainers must venture through Victory Road, a lengthy [[cave]] acting as a final test for Trainers.

The Elite Four must be battled consecutively, with breaks to the [[Pokémon Center]] prohibited. Trainers are unable to go back or return to previous rooms. The only way to open the door and progress through each room is to defeat the Elite Four member of that room. Each member of the Elite Four is stronger than the previous member, and like Gym Leaders, each specializes in a different [[type]].

==Slogan==
'''''The ultimate goal of Trainers!'''''{{sup/1|RBY}}{{sup/3|FRLG}} or '''''The Ultimate Goal for Trainers!'''''{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/4|HGSS}} and '''''The highest Pokémon authority!''''' [non-Japanese Generations I and III only] (Japanese, all generations: '''ポケモントレーナーの　頂点''' ''The Pokémon Trainer's zenith'' and '''ポケモン　最高機関''' ''The highest organization on Pokémon'').

==Geography==
===Superstructure===
[[File:Indigo Plateau HGSS.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Generation IV]]
In the {{pkmn|games}}, Indigo Plateau is depicted as a large building surrounded by mountainous areas. Indigo Plateau area changes in every generation, however in every generation there is a small area at the entrance that connects the exit of {{ka|Victory Road}} to Indigo Plateau.

In [[Generation I]], there is a narrow passageway, where giant statues act as barriers that lead to the entrance.

In [[Generation II]], the area between Victory Road and Indigo Plateau is shorter and wider, and the statues have been removed only to be replaced by trees.

In [[Generation III]], there is a flight of stairs that leads up to Indigo Plateau from Route 23, with a small area outside the entrance with a couple of giant statues.

In [[Generation IV]], the pathway is the same as Generation II, but much fancier. There are two archways each with a small set of stairs above them and {{i|Poké Ball}} statues that appear left and right across the path. The {{FB|Headbutt|tree}}s on both sides of the path can be {{m|Headbutt}}ed, but they do not contain any [[wild Pokémon]].

In [[Generation VII]], the exterior is highly similar to how it was in Generation III, with several big statues standing on both sides of a flight of stairs, accompanied by multiple lush trees.

On the ground floor is a combined [[Poké Mart]] and [[Pokémon Center]]. This is the last safe stop before Trainers make their way up to the upper floors, therefore, Trainers can purchase and stock up on items, as well as heal their Pokémon before leaving. There are a number of things a {{player}} can do on this floor. A [[Pokémon Center lady]] heals all status conditions, recharges [[HP]] and [[PP]] of all [[party]] Pokémon, free of charge. She is located at the main counter just as the player enters Indigo Plateau. It also hosts the Cable Club and the Union Room, which facilitates multiplayer gameplay and link players to battle and trade one another. Trainers also have access to a [[PC]]. Trainers can also buy items from the Poké Mart. The Poké Mart stocks rare items that can only be found in Indigo Plateau.

In Generation II, the layout of the ground floor is slightly modified, with the Cable Club and the Union Room relocated upstairs. The PC is now located in the middle of the room, while the Pokémon Center lady is located on the left of it, and the Poké Mart is located on the right of it. There is also an old man standing near the counter that will ask the player if they miss their [[Player's house#Johto|home]], and will use an {{p|Abra}} to {{m|Teleport}} the Trainer back to [[New Bark Town]]. He offers this because the Trainer cannot {{m|Fly}} to Johto from the Indigo Plateau. He will disappear after the player defeats the Elite Four and Champion for the first time.

In Generation III, the ground floor is similar to the ground floor in Generation I; however, the Cable Club and the Union Room are relocated upstairs. There are a couple of Trainers waiting or resting from training in {{ka|Victory Road}}.

[[File:Red Rematch Location LGPE.png|thumb|250px|Red's rematch location]]
In Generation IV, the ground floor is revamped with a regal red motif with stairs in the center covered in a red carpet. Like the Pokémon Centers in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the wireless facilities are located in the same room as the Pokémon Center lady, one flight of stairs above. To the right is the Poké Mart and the stairs to the Wi-Fi Club. The man with an Abra is still there, but he won't Teleport the player, saying that intimidated Trainers just Fly back home; in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the player can Fly to any Fly destination in either region from outside the building. To the right of the Abra man is a terminal where the player can compare records with other players that have been contacted wirelessly, similar to the rooms in [[Jubilife TV]].

In Generation VII, the ground floor is a big hall with a mainly golden color scheme, and houses no other features besides the Pokémon Center and the Poké Mart. Like in Generation IV, a red carpet is laid on the floor, stretching from the front door to the entrance to the [[Elite Four]]'s domain. On the west side of the hall is [[Move Reminder|Madame Memorial]], who can teach a Pokémon any of its level-up moves at the cost of one [[Heart Scale]] per taught move. Next to the Poké Mart counter is a {{tc|Super Nerd}}, who offers to [[In-game trade|trade]] the player an {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Exeggutor}} for a Kantonian Exeggutor as many times as they like. After the player has defeated the Pokémon League, a {{tc|Poké Maniac}} appears in the hall, selling the player all the Kanto Pokémon [[Mega Stone]]s for {{PDollar}}30,000 each, excluding the [[Kanto first partner Pokémon]] and {{p|Mewtwo}} Mega Stones.

Once Trainers climb the first staircase, they will reach the first room, and upon entering the door will lock so they are unable to return. The door to the second room is also locked and the only way to open the door and progress through each room is to defeat the Elite Four member of that room.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Lorelei]] is in control of this room, thus is the first member of the Elite Four who must be defeated. In Generation II and IV, Will is the Elite Four member present.

In Generation I, the room is filled with [[water tile|water]], with a small bridge connecting the entrance to the battle area—the player can even {{m|Surf}} on it and [[fishing|fish]] in the water, although wild Pokémon can only be encountered by fishing. In Generation III, the room contains ice pillars instead, and does not have any water.

In [[Generation II]], the room is filled with a pool of ice, with a small bridge connecting the entrance to the battle area, where Will is standing.

In [[Generation III]], Lorelei's room is a plain room with six large statues of ice surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], the room has a purple tiled floor, with floating transparent cubes bobbing around the room, rising seemingly from a black pit. The shape of the room is reminiscent of Generation I.

In [[Generation VII]], Lorelei's room now sports an icy blue color scheme, with cold vapor floating in the air and six stylized ice pillars surrounding the battlefield. Lorelei herself is seen sitting on her {{p|Lapras}}, waiting for the next challenger to arrive.

The second room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. Like the room before it, the doors to other rooms will lock so Trainers are unable to return or advance forward.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Bruno]] is the owner of this room, and has designed it according to his {{type|Fighting}} specialties. The room is full of giant boulders that surround the battlefield, and a Pokémon statue in the corner.

In [[Generation II]], Bruno, the former owner of the room has been replaced by [[Koga]], the former [[Gym Leader]], still using his signature {{type|Poison}} Pokémon. The room has been redesigned and customized to meet the needs of his Poison Pokémon, which now has a grassy floor with many trees towering over the area.

In [[Generation III]], Bruno's room changes from the rocky environment it was to a plain room with six large statues of stone surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], Koga once again claims this room. The room is shaped much like his Generation II room. The floor is covered in grass, but this time Koga stands in the middle of a large rectangle of stone. The sides of the room show the shadows of trees. The stone and wall supports are adorned with moss.

In [[Generation VII]], Bruno's room sports a light brown color scheme, with six stylized stone pillars standing around the battlefield. A bright light is shining into the room, shining off the floor and walls.

The third room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. Like the room before it, the doors to other rooms will lock so Trainers are unable to return or advance forward.

In [[Generation I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, [[Agatha]] is the owner of this room, and has designed it according to her own {{type|Ghost}} specialties. The room is full of giant gravestones that surround the battlefield. There are gravestones on both sides of the battling arena, and a Pokémon statue in the bottom left-hand corner.

In [[Generation II]], Agatha, the former owner of the room has been replaced by [[Bruno]], the former owner of the second room, who has been promoted and has now taken her place, still using his signature {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon. The room has been redesigned and customized now with pools of lava bubbling left and right of the battle arena. There is a narrow bridge connected to the battling arena where Bruno stands waiting for battle.

In [[Generation III]], Agatha's room changes from the eerie environment with gravestones to a plain room with six large statues surrounding the battle arena.

In [[Generation IV]], Bruno has this room, and it once again is roughly the shape of his Generation II room. The pit is once again filled with lava, but two large tubs line the side of the room, giving it an industrial feel.

In [[Generation VII]], Agatha's room has a dark color scheme, with moss growing in between the purple floor tiles. The battlefield is surrounded by six dark, stylized pillars, each of them housing what seems like a {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}, giving off an eerie blue light.

The fourth room can be accessed after defeating the Elite Four member of the previous room. However, unlike the previous rooms before it, once a Trainer advances through the doors to the fourth room, they will automatically travel through the room to face off with the final Elite Four member. This will only happen in [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, however. In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, the Trainer will advance to the fourth room normally.

In [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, the room enters in a long, narrow pathway that curves around in a sideways 'S' shape. The pathway will end in with a battle arena where [[Lance]] will be standing, either at the end of it or in the middle of it. There are many Pokémon statues surrounding the battle arena, but these are moved to the pathway in [[Generation III]], and the main battle arena is surrounded by six large fang-shaped statues.

In [[Generation II]], [[Karen]] is the current owner of the fourth room, and it is like any other room within the Elite Four. The room has been redesigned and customized now with a deep, dark pit left and right of the battle arena. There is a narrow bridge connected to the batting arena where Karen stands waiting for battle.

In [[Generation IV]], Karen has this room again. The room is shaped like her old Generation II room. The pit, however, is now filled with blue crystals. The floor is purple with a star pattern and stage curtains are hung behind Karen, corresponding with the movie star look of Karen in this generation.

In [[Generation VII]], although the room is once again housed by Lance, there is no pathway leading up to it, unlike in the previous games where he owns the room. The room has turquoise floor tiles and golden walls. The six pillars standing around the battlefield have a dragon scale pattern on them and four declarations shaped like a dragon's fang at each of their bases. Lance, who is waiting for new challengers at the end of the room, is accompanied by his {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} standing next to him.

Once a Trainer defeats the final member of the Elite Four, they will go on to the Champion's room. The current Champion awaits in his room for the final battle to unfold. Like the previous four rooms, the Champion's room will automatically direct the Trainer to the Champion.

In [[Generation I|Generations I]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, the Champion is {{ga|Blue}}{{sup/1}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}/{{ga|Trace}}{{sup/7|PE}}, who had become the {{pkmn|Champion}} just recently. The battlefield is a small room, with two entrances; one that leads from the fourth room, the other leads to the [[Hall of Fame]].

In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, the Champion is [[Lance]], formerly the fourth Elite Four member, who continues to use {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon. The room has a long hall decorated with {{p|Dratini}} statues (regular statues in Gold and Silver) left and right of the path. At the end of the hall, the player reaches an elevated part of the room where Lance awaits. Behind him are double doors that lead to the Hall of Fame. In Generation IV, this room is gold-colored, with a red carpet going down the middle and moving gears on the walls.

===Hall of Fame===
[[File:Indigo Plateau Hall of Fame LGPE.png|thumb|250px|The Hall of Fame in Generation VII]]
{{main|Hall of Fame}}
Once the Champion is defeated, there is a great congratulations and the victor will be recorded in the Hall of Fame and made current Champion. The Hall of Fame is a record kept by the [[Pokémon League]] of all the Pokémon Trainers who have ever defeated the Pokémon League. In the hallway to the Hall of Fame recording room, [[Professor Oak]] is present to congratulate the player. It is a fairly large room that only contains a large computer. The Hall of Fame will record the [[Trainer ID number|Trainer's ID number]], name, and [[party]]. For each Pokémon of the player's party, the [[Pokémon (species)|species]], name, [[gender]], [[level]], and area met are recorded; the gender is not recorded prior to Generation II and the area met is not recorded prior to Generation III.

After becoming Champion, the player returns home, rather than staying at the Pokémon League to fight challengers. Prior to [[Generation VII]], the previous Champion keeps his position. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, however, the player keeps the title of Champion, and {{ga|Trace}} is instead challenging them to retake his title at the end of the gauntlet.

==Trainers==
In [[Generation]]s {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}}, {{ga|Silver}} can be {{pkmn|battle}}d here on {{DL|Days of the week|Monday}}s and {{DL|Days of the week|Wednesday}}s following the battle against him at [[Mt. Moon]] (as well as the [[Multi Battle]] against [[Lance]] and [[Clair]] in the [[Dragon's Den]] in Generation IV). Silver will appear to halt the {{player}} for a battle as they walk towards the steps to enter the Elite Four's domain.

In [[Generation VII]], the player can fight {{ga|Red}} outside the Pokémon League building if they have defeated at least six [[Master Trainer]]s and have six Pokémon in their [[party]]. Like during all Master Trainer battles, the player can't use [[item]]s from their [[Bag]] during this battle. After being defeated, Red will grant the player the title of [[Pokémon Master|Battle Master]] before leaving, though he will reappear for a [[rematch]] each time the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]].

[[File:Gym Leader Elite Four Stadium.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Pokémon Stadium]]
[[File:Gym Leader Elite Four Stadium 2.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in Pokémon Stadium 2]]
===Pokémon Stadium series===
{{main|Indigo Plateau/Stadium series}}
Fields based on those of the Indigo Plateau appear in [[Pokémon Stadium]]'s [[Gym Leader Castle]] and {{g|Stadium 2}}'s Johto Gym Leader Castle. Just like in the [[core series]] games, the player has to defeat all the Elite Four members in order to reach the Champion. In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] games, after defeating the Champion and entering the Hall of Fame, the player earns a special reward.

====Pokémon Stadium====
In Pokémon Stadium, clearing Indigo Plateau earns the player a random [[gift Pokémon]] from eight different possibilities: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Hitmonchan}}, {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, or {{p|Kabuto}}.

When the {{ga|Blue|Rival}} is beaten in Round 1, the prize Pokémon will be holding a [[Normal Box]] if traded to [[Generation II]], which contains a [[Decoration#Trophies|Silver Trophy]]. When the Rival is beaten in Round 2, the prize Pokémon will be holding a [[Gorgeous Box]], which contains a [[Decoration#Trophies|Gold Trophy]].

====Pokémon Stadium 2====
In Pokémon Stadium 2, as a reward for clearing Indigo Plateau for the first time in each round, the player unlocks a new mode for the [[Game Boy Tower]]. Clearing Round 1 unlocks either a {{p|Doduo}} Sticker mode (if not all [[Stadium Cup]]s have been beaten) or a {{p|Dodrio}} Sticker mode (if all Stadium Cups have been beaten) in Game Boy Tower for the [[Generation I]] games; clearing Round 2 unlocks the same mode, but for the [[Generation II]] games. Furthermore, the player will be granted access to the Kanto [[Gym Leader Castle]].

Additionally, each time the player clears Indigo Plateau with a team that was not a preregistered team and that contained no rental Pokémon, they are given the opportunity to [[Move Reminder|reteach]] a move to one Pokémon from the victorious team.

==In the spin-off games==
===[[Pokémon Pinball]]===
In {{g|Pinball}}, Indigo Plateau appears on the Red and Blue tables; catchable {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} include {{p|Spearow}}, {{p|Sandshrew}}, {{p|Machop}}, {{p|Geodude}}, {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Pinsir}}, {{p|Ditto}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mewtwo}}, and {{p|Mew}}.

===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
Artwork of various depictions of the Indigo Plateau is seen in the mindscapes of many Trainers associated with it, including the [[Elite Four]], {{mas|Lance}}, {{mas|Blue}}, {{mas|Kris}}, {{mas|Lyra}}, and {{mas|Chase}}.

==In animation==
[[File:Indigo Plateau anime.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in {{aniseries|RS}}]]
===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
Indigo Plateau first appeared at the end of ''[[EP073|Bad To The Bone]]'', after {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} left for the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. In the [[EP074|following episode]], Ash and the others helped to run the flame of {{p|Moltres}} to Indigo Stadium, and they officially reached Indigo Plateau. They stayed there until the end of the tournament in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]''.

The Indigo Plateau Conference was conducted between the 256 participating {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, taking place on five different fields. The preliminary rounds were fought on four fields themed around water, grass, rock, and ice, respectively. The Top 16 Trainers who won a match at each of these fields, including Ash, advanced to the tournament finals, which were conducted at Indigo Stadium. Ash's [[rival]] {{Gary}} also competed in the tournament, but was eliminated in the fourth preliminary round. Ash was ultimately defeated by his new friend and rival, [[Ritchie]], in the fifth round, with Ritchie too losing in the sixth round and the tournament's ultimate winner being left unrevealed.

Indigo Plateau is also the home of Pokémon League Village, where Ash, his friends, and all the other Trainers stayed during the events of the League. In addition to houses for the Trainers to stay in, the Village also contains a [[Pokémon Center]], shops, and restaurants. All League participants dine for free here.

===={{aniseries|RS}}====
From ''[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'' to ''[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone!]]'', Indigo Plateau hosted the [[Kanto Grand Festival]]. {{an|May}} and her rivals [[Drew]], [[Harley]], and [[Solidad]] joined the competition along with several other {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s who successfully collected five {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]]s from the Kanto region. 270 contestants competed in the preliminary [[Appeal|Appeals Round]], which was held in two separate stadiums, but only 64 advanced to the main competition. In the end, Solidad emerged victorious, earning the [[Ribbon Cup]] and the title of [[Top Coordinator]].

To attend all of the Trainers who come to participate in these events, the local Pokémon Center is larger than most others in the region. It accommodates the Coordinators taking part in the Kanto Grand Festival and it has a dining hall where the party to mark the end of the competition is held.

[[Fennel Valley]], where the [[Battle Pyramid]] was located for a while, is located nearby.

In {{aniseries|HZ}}, Indigo Plateau is also the site of [[Indigo Academy]], a school for Pokémon Trainers. It hands out [[Pokédex]]es and [[first partner Pokémon]] to new students, such as [[Liko]] and [[Ann]], who started studying there in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]''. After Liko begun traveling with the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], she started to attend classes remotely. While she returned to the academy for a year following the events in ''[[HZ089|Where the Adventure Leads]]'', she eventually resumed traveling alongside [[Roy]] in ''[[HZ091|Eyes to the Skies Once Again (Part Two)]]''.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Indigo Plateau PO.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
{{OBP|Red|Origins}} arrived at Indigo Plateau in ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', where he challenged and defeated the Elite Four. Once he had defeated [[Lance]], he found out that he still had to battle the Champion, who turned out to be his rival, {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}. After a hard-fought battle, Red emerged victorious, making him the new Champion and worthy of entering the Hall of Fame.

The battle arenas at the Indigo Plateau seem to have self-repairing systems, automatically fixing any possible damage caused to the arenas during battles.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Indigo Plateau Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], every winner of the Indigo Plateau Pokémon League tournament has come from [[Pallet Town]].

===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
In ''[[PS026|Holy Moltres]]'', [[Team Rocket]] was revealed to have {{pkmn2|caught}} {{DL|Legendary birds (Adventures)|Moltres}} at the Indigo Plateau.

In ''[[PS039|Just a Spearow Carrier]]'' and ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'', {{adv|Red}} took part in the ninth triennial Indigo League Tournament at the Indigo Plateau. {{adv|Blue}}, {{adv|Green}}, and a masked {{pkmn|Trainer}} called Dr. O also participated in the tournament and made it to the semi-finals, along with Red. Despite his success, Red was dismayed to find out that he and Blue were set up to face each other in the semi-finals instead of the finals.

In the first semi-final battle, Green was defeated by Dr. O, who turned out to be a disguised {{adv|Professor Oak}}, who had exploited his knowledge of Green's {{wp|ornithophobia}}, a result of her being kidnapped by {{p|Ho-Oh|a giant bird Pokémon}} as a toddler, to his advantage by using a {{p|Spearow}} against her. When Professor Oak asked why Green had stolen his [[Blasty|Squirtle]], Green revealed that, as a Pallet Town Trainer like Red and Blue, she had wanted to have the same privilege of owning a [[Pokédex]] and going on an adventure like they had. Professor Oak agreed to this on the condition that Green would not continue stealing things, making her a [[Pokédex holder]] as well.

After Professor Oak withdrew from the competition, having already won himself a championship years before, Red and Blue's semi-final battle was changed into the final battle of the tournament, much to Red's pleasure. Red eventually won the battle, making him a [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. Their battle was observed by [[Elite Four#Indigo Elite Four|four shadowy figures]] from the edge of the stadium.

===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
In ''[[PS076|Take a Chance on Chansey]]'', [[Agatha]] revealed that she had confronted Professor Oak in the finals of the first triennial Indigo League Tournament, with Oak having emerged victorious after a gruelling eight-hour battle.

===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
[[File:Indigo Plateau approach Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau in the {{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}]]
Starting from ''[[PS154|Yikes, It's Yanma!]]'', the Indigo Plateau hosted an {{wp|Exhibition game|exhibition tournament}} between the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Johto]] and Kanto in order to reveal the identity of the [[Masked Man]]. For the event, the [[Magnet Train]] line was changed to travel through the Pokémon League in order to transport the Gym Leaders there.

The tournament was interrupted when [[Neo Team Rocket]] attacked the stadium by first having {{tc|Executive}}s [[Carl]] and [[Sham]] hack into its systems in ''[[PS164|Slick Slowking]]'', followed by the Gym Leaders being trapped inside the speeding Magnet Train while fighting Neo {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s in ''[[PS165|Lugia and Ho-Oh on the Loose, Part 1]]'', after which the Masked Man himself showed up with {{adv|Tower duo|Lugia and Ho-Oh}}. {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Crystal}} fought against the Masked Man, eventually joined by [[Misty]], {{adv|Blaine}}, and [[Lt. Surge]], whom the {{adv|Legendary beasts}} had chosen as their masters in preparation for this very moment. Despite being faced by multiple strong opponents, the Masked Man ultimately managed to get away with what he had wanted: the recipe for building the [[GS Ball]] from [[Kurt]], who had been in the audience.

In ''[[PS180|The Last Battle XIV]]'', it was revealed that while the exhibition tournament had been interrupted, [[Clair]] had reported her defeat against Blaine aboard the Magnet Train, meaning that Kanto had won the tournament with four wins, three losses, and one draw. However, due to the damages the stadium had suffered, the actual Pokémon League tournament could not be conducted.

===The Electric Tale of Pikachu===
[[File:Indigo Plateau EToP.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]]]
Like in {{aniseries|OS}}, the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]] was held at the Indigo Plateau in this {{pkmn|manga}}, taking place in ''[[ET12|Welcome to the Big Leagues]]'' and ''[[ET13|The Indigo Finals]]''. Although the manga was based on ''Pokémon the Series: The Beginning'', there were still several notable differences between the two, such as {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} entering the conference as well, and {{Gary}} being defeated by [[Ritchie]] instead of [[Melissa]].
{{-}}

===Pokémon Zensho===
[[File:Indigo Plateau Zensho.png|thumb|210px|Indigo Plateau in [[Pokémon Zensho]]]]
{{Zensho|Satoshi}} went to the Indigo Plateau in ''[[PZ10|Indigo Plateau]]'' to challenge the Elite Four. After defeating the Elite Four, he found out that his rival, {{Zensho|Shigeru}}, had already done that before him, having claimed the title of Pokémon League Champion for himself. After a tough battle between {{Zensho|Satoshi's Charizard}} and Shigeru's {{p|Blastoise}}, Satoshi finally emerged victorious, making him the new Pokémon League Champion. [[Professor Oak]] then arrived to congratulate Satoshi of his victory and to tell him and Shigeru about {{p|Mewtwo}}, prompting the two young {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to head to [[Cerulean Cave]] in order to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it.

==Trivia==
[[File:APC bg Indigo Plateau.png|thumb|250px|Indigo Plateau as a backdrop in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}'s [[Alola Photo Club]]]]
* In [[Generation I]] only, the player will be unable to defeat [[Agatha]] and reach the [[Hall of Fame]] if there are no available moves (with [[PP]] remaining) that can damage {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, either directly or indirectly such as via {{status|confusion}}. This is due to the fact that in this generation, Ghost-type Pokémon are immune to {{m|Struggle}} (being a {{type|Normal}} move) and all opposing Pokémon have infinite PP. This applies to battles against the {{tc|Channeler}}s in the [[Pokémon Tower]] as well.
** See more details in [[Pokémon Tower#Trivia|Pokémon Tower → Trivia]].
* In all of the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}} in which Indigo Plateau appears, the first member of the [[Elite Four]] uses both a {{p|Slowbro}} and a {{p|Jynx}} in {{pkmn|battle}}.
* In the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, this is the only [[Pokémon League]] where the rooms of the different Elite Four members do not all share the same [[list of overworld music themes|background music]].
** [[Lorelei]]'s room shares its background music with [[Gym]]s, [[Bruno]]'s with the [[Team Rocket Hideout|Rocket Hideout]], [[Agatha]]'s with the [[Pokémon Tower]], and [[Lance]]'s with the rest of Indigo Plateau.
** In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the lobby of Indigo Plateau also shares its background music with Gyms.
* In the [[Generation I]] games, due to an oversight, [[wild Pokémon]] can be found by [[fishing]] in Lorelei's room.

[[File:Hall of Fame B2W2.png|thumb|right|Entering the Hall of Fame in {{B2W2}}]]
The '''Hall of Fame''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|殿堂入り|でんどういり}}''' ''Induction to the Hall of Fame'') is a record kept by the [[Pokémon League]] of all the [[Pokémon Trainer]]s who have ever beaten the [[Pokémon Champion]].

A '''Hall of Famer''' is a Trainer or any of their Pokémon who entered the Hall of Fame.<ref>''"Congratulations, <player>, you and your Pokémon are Hall of Famers!"'' - [[Professor Oak]] in Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, and LeafGreen</ref> According to an unused feature found in the data of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, a '''HOF Master''' is a player who entered the Hall of Fame 200 times.

Various data regarding the victorious Trainer is recorded. The Hall of Fame was in a room accessible from the Champion's room prior to [[Generation VII]]. It may be accessed by people who have entered it by way of [[PC]].

==In the core series games==
===Data recorded===
In each game, data is recorded into the [[PC]], which is also shown during the games' ending scene. This is a list of which data is visible on the Hall of Fame PC option.

====Generation I====
Hall of Fame records are stored per individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. This means that a single member team is given a single record, while a six-member team is given six records. Each uniquely indexed record holds the Pokémon's species, [[level]], and [[nickname]]. The Pokémon's [[type]] is also displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation I|species index]] itself.

All [[Generation I]] games store the {{player}}'s 50 most recent records in ascending order. Any further records overwrite the oldest record present. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 51 times, feats 2 through 51 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 300 Pokémon records to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, playing time, [[Pokémon Dollar|money]], sprite, and number of Pokémon obtained are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand. [[Professor Oak]] also evaluates the player's [[Pokédex]] before the credits roll.

====Generation II====
Hall of Fame records are again stored per individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Each uniquely indexed record now holds the Pokémon's species, [[level]], [[Individual values|IVs]], [[Trainer ID number]] and [[nickname]]. Although the IVs are not visible, they are used to display the Pokémon's [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{p|Unown}} {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Unown|form}}, if any of the three apply to the given specimen. The Pokémon's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation II|index number]] is also displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's species index itself.

All [[Generation II]] games store the player's 30 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would again delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 31 times, feats 31 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 180 Pokémon records to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, Trainer ID number, playing time, sprite, and number of Pokémon obtained are displayed during the ending scene, along with each [[Party|team]] member's unique record beforehand. [[Professor Oak]] also evaluates the player's [[Pokédex]] before the credits roll.

====Generation III====
Hall of Fame records are now stored per each [[Party|team]], so as to save time traversing through records. This means that a single member team is given a single record, while a six-member is team is also given a single record. Each indexed record holds an entire team's data, with each unique team member entry consisting of its species, [[level]], [[nickname]], [[personality value]], and [[Trainer ID number]]. Personality values work exactly like [[Individual values|IVs]] in [[Generation II]], in that they are not visible, yet are used to display the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{p|Unown}} and/or {{p|Spinda}} {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences||form}}, if any of the these apply to the given specimen. The Pokémon's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation III|index number]] is once again displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's species index itself.

All [[Generation III]] games store the player's 50 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 51 times, feats 51 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 50 team records, each with a maximum of 300 Pokémon total, to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, Trainer ID number, playing time and sprite are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand. Unlike previous [[generation]]s, however, each game's [[region]]al {{pkmn|Professor}} will not evaluate the [[Pokédex]]. Instead, the message <code>LEAGUE CHAMPION! CONGRATULATIONS!</code> is displayed before the credits roll.

====Generation IV====
Hall of Fame records are again stored per each [[Party|team]], so as to save time traversing through records. Each indexed record holds the date the feat took place, as well as an entire team's data, with each unique team member entry consisting of its species, [[level]], [[nickname]], [[personality value]], {{pkmn|Trainer}} name and all four learned [[move]]s. Personality values are not visible, yet are used to display the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences||form}}, if any of the three apply to the given specimen.

All [[Generation IV]] games store the player's 30 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 31 times, feats 31 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 30 team records, each with a maximum of 180 Pokémon total, to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, [[Trainer ID number]], playing time and sprite and the message <code>League Champion! Congratulations!</code> are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand.

Additionally, when a team member is displayed during the ending scene, its original [[List of locations by index number in Generation IV|catching location]] will be displayed. Whether this piece of information is stored within each team member's Hall of Fame record or not has yet to be researched.

The music that plays in the Hall of Fame in the Sinnoh games is a somber, lower-pitched version of [[Professor Rowan]]'s theme (which is also the music in the introduction to the game).

====Generation V====
{{incomplete|section|Needs research on how the Hall of Fame data is stored}}
In addition to recording the player's [[party]] after defeating the Champion in all games of Generation V, the Hall of Fame in Pokémon Black and White also records data after the player defeats [[Ghetsis]]. A maximum of 15 entries can be recorded at any time, as well as the First Game Clear. The data is again deleted using the {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. The data is stored in the "Records" section of the PC. Each entry includes the date the player entered the Hall of Fame, their Pokémon's nickname, gender, level, species, [[Original Trainer]], and moves.

====Generation VI====
After defeating the [[Elite Four]], the player's party is saved in the Hall of Fame. Stored data for each party member includes species, gender, level, nickname, Original Trainer, moves, and held items. Similarly to Generation V, a maximum of 15 [[Elite Four]] clears can be recorded at any time, as well as the First Game Clear. The data is deleted using the {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method.

====Generation VII====
In [[Generation VII]] the Hall of Fame is no longer an actual place, nor can it be recalled at a PC. Instead, when [[Hau]] or [[Professor Kukui]] is defeated in battle, the screen transitions into each Pokémon in the party, and their levels, displayed as multicolored shooting stars before transitioning to the player looking around at the stars, with the message <code>Congratulations! You are the first-ever Champion of Alola!</code> or <code>Congratulations! You defended your title!</code> (if the last battle was a title defense).

A {{tc|Golfer}} standing near the Pokémon League entrance replaces the PC function to recall data from victorious teams, but the only data that's stored in this generation are the species names, and only for two saved teams: the first victory, and the most recent one.

[[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] also lack a viewable Hall of Fame, despite the player's Pokémon being inducted into it before the game's end credits.

====Generation VIII====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the Hall of Fame is once again no longer an actual place. Instead, the title screen will now be updated to showcase each party member of the player's team after defeating [[Leon]]. In addition, each Pokémon will receive a Galar Champion Ribbon that solidifies the player having entered the Hall of Fame. Since Leon officially loses his title and position as Champion in these games, this will be the only formal Hall of Fame induction. However, this title screen may still be updated by completing a Champion tournament.

====Generation IX====
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the Hall of Fame is mentioned in the description of the Paldea Champion Ribbon received by the player's party after either defeating [[Geeta]] or winning the [[Academy Ace Tournament]]. Additionally, a pamphlet titled "Hall of Fame Badges: A Record" is located on the top floor of [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}}. Initially, only [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}} has their name listed. However, following the completion of the main story, the names of [[Nemona]], [[Arven]], [[Penny]], and the player are added to the book. There is no sequence of any kind to showcase the Pokémon that have beaten Geeta or won the Academy Ace Tournament.

===Healing Pokémon===
In [[Generation I]] games, there is no automatic Pokémon healing at the Hall of Fame. When the player resumes a Generation I game after entering the Hall of Fame, the Pokémon will still have their lost [[HP]], [[PP]], their [[status condition]]s (if any), and any [[fainting|fainted]] Pokémon will remain fainted.

From [[Generation II]] onwards, all Pokémon in the [[party]] are automatically healed when the player enters the Hall of Fame.

===Glitches===
[[File:Halloffameglitches.png|thumb|160px|Examples of corrupted Hall of Fame entries caused by MissingNo.]]
* In the [[Generation I]] games, if the player encounters [[MissingNo.]] or other [[glitch Pokémon]], the Hall of Fame data may be corrupted by a [[glitch]] in the game. When MissingNo. has been seen on the save file, the player's Hall of Fame is badly corrupted with entirely different {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, which will often consist of glitched characters and names. Players can often see particular Pokémon in the Hall of Fame, whether they have seen them in the [[Pokédex]] or not. This effect also works in {{game|Yellow}} when encountering glitch Pokémon through the [[Mew glitch]]. However, a way to avoid the effects of this glitch is to encounter MissingNo. or any other glitch Pokémon before entering the Hall of Fame, because encountering a MissingNo. only affects the teams already registered in the Hall of Fame. Players can also defeat the Elite Four multiple times after having encountered MissingNo., as the game will automatically overwrite older Hall of Fame entries after the Elite Four is defeated 20 times.
* In {{game|Red and Green|s}}, performing the [[Dokokashira door glitch]] allows the {{player}} to quickly complete the game by forcing the next door to take them to another location; this can include the Hall of Fame room. This extremely hazardous and game-breaking glitch was removed from {{game|Blue| (Japanese)}}, causing it to not be present in the translated {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.
* In earlier versions of {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the game would sometimes freeze after recording the player's team data in the Hall of Fame; this glitch was patched out in the Version 1.2 update on December 3, 2014, 12 days after the games' initial release.

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Masters EX===
[[File:Hall of Fame Masters.png|thumb|150px|Hall of Fame for the Johto Challenge in Masters EX]]
Like in the core series games, in [[Pokémon Masters EX]], players may enter the Hall of Fame after defeating the Elite Four and Champion in the [[Champion Stadium]] at Hard difficulty. Unlike in the core series games however, players are required to use different [[sync pair]]s when challenging each individual Elite Four member or Champion; thus, 5-15 sync pairs can be registered at the Hall of Fame. After the Champion is defeated, a short animation will play showing the sync pair(s) that defeated the Champion before the message "Congratulations! Hall of Fame Entry No. #" appears, with the # indicating the number of times the player has entered the Hall of Fame overall within the region in rotation.

The Hall of Fame lists the date and time the Champion Stadium was cleared as well as the sync pairs that defeated each individual Elite Four member or Champion in the order they were faced. Only the region in which the Champion Stadium is running is reported for the Hall of Fame.

Should the player succeed in entering the Hall of Fame with 18 different types of sync pairs, they may obtain an MVP Medal for the region in rotation, after which they may participate in the Master Mode of the Champion Stadium.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
The Hall of Fame's only appearance in the {{pkmn|animated series}} was in ''[[EP112|Enter the Dragonite]]''. After beating {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}}, the [[Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader]], {{Ash}} earned the title of "Honorable Trainer" ({{pkmn|Champion}} in the [[dub]]) and a spot in the [[Palace of Victory]], which is also known as the [[Orange League]] Hall of Fame. A photo of the winning {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are kept on display.

===={{aniseries|RS}}====
In ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four!]]'', [[Scott]] revealed that any Trainer who successfully defeats the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} is entered into the Hall of Fame and becomes a [[Frontier Brain]] candidate. After earning his final [[Symbol]] by defeating {{an|Brandon}} in the [[AG190|next episode]], Ash entered the Battle Frontier Hall of Fame, but turned down the offer for Frontier Brain candidacy.

[[File:Hall of Fame PO.png|thumb|left|250px|The Hall of Fame in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
===Pokémon Origins===
The Hall of Fame appeared in ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'' after {{OBP|Red|Origins}} defeated {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} and became the Pokémon League Champion. Much like in the games, Red was led to the Hall of Fame by [[Professor Oak]], after which Red's Pokémon's data was recorded and displayed on a screen. The Hall of Fame contained numerous portraits of all the previous Champions and their Pokémon [[party|teams]].
{{-}}

== In the manga ==

=== Pokémon Adventures ===
Though there doesn't seem to be a room to register in, the [[Pokémon Association]] keeps track of each Champion winner. Sometimes, even being a Runner-up is enough to be consider hall of fame registry on technicality in the case of Runner-up No. 2 [[Blue (Adventures)|Blue]] and Runner-up No. 3 [[Green (Adventures)|Green]].

==Trivia==
* The "Congratulations" screen in the [[Generation V]] games shows the player with one of their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}; after showing one battle animation cycle, it rotates the Pokémon off-screen to the left and the next Pokémon takes its place from the right. This is similar to what occurs on the title screen of {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}.
* In [[Generation II]], the Hall of Fame counter stops at 200, despite coding for a unique message of ''"HOF Master!"'' on the 201st entry into the Hall of Fame. This error occurs due to a coding oversight that causes the counter to stop at 200 entries instead of allowing the count to go past 201 times.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Gold_and_Silver/Unused_Text#Hall_of_Fame tcrf - Hall of Fame - Unused Text]</ref>
* Although [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]] do not feature the Hall of Fame, the melody of the recurring Hall of Fame theme from previous games is used as a motif in these games, appearing in the title screen theme, the [[Gym]] theme, Leon's battle and victory themes, the music in the cutscene that plays after Leon is defeated, and the credits theme. It also makes a more subtle appearance in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]] in the theme that plays when the player defeats [[Geeta]].
* In the [[Hoenn]] games, {{Steven}}{{sup/3|RS}}{{sup/6|ORAS}}/[[Wallace]]{{sup/3|E}} states that only Champions are allowed to enter the Hall of Fame. Despite this, both [[Professor Oak]] and [[Professor Rowan]] have been seen accompanying the player into the Hall of Fame in [[Kanto]] and [[Sinnoh]], respectively.

[[File:Hall of Fame B2W2.png|thumb|right|Entering the Hall of Fame in {{B2W2}}]]
The '''Hall of Fame''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|殿堂入り|でんどういり}}''' ''Induction to the Hall of Fame'') is a record kept by the [[Pokémon League]] of all the [[Pokémon Trainer]]s who have ever beaten the [[Pokémon Champion]].

A '''Hall of Famer''' is a Trainer or any of their Pokémon who entered the Hall of Fame.<ref>''"Congratulations, <player>, you and your Pokémon are Hall of Famers!"'' - [[Professor Oak]] in Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, and LeafGreen</ref> According to an unused feature found in the data of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, a '''HOF Master''' is a player who entered the Hall of Fame 200 times.

Various data regarding the victorious Trainer is recorded. The Hall of Fame was in a room accessible from the Champion's room prior to [[Generation VII]]. It may be accessed by people who have entered it by way of [[PC]].

==In the core series games==
===Data recorded===
In each game, data is recorded into the [[PC]], which is also shown during the games' ending scene. This is a list of which data is visible on the Hall of Fame PC option.

====Generation I====
Hall of Fame records are stored per individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. This means that a single member team is given a single record, while a six-member team is given six records. Each uniquely indexed record holds the Pokémon's species, [[level]], and [[nickname]]. The Pokémon's [[type]] is also displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation I|species index]] itself.

All [[Generation I]] games store the {{player}}'s 50 most recent records in ascending order. Any further records overwrite the oldest record present. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 51 times, feats 2 through 51 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 300 Pokémon records to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, playing time, [[Pokémon Dollar|money]], sprite, and number of Pokémon obtained are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand. [[Professor Oak]] also evaluates the player's [[Pokédex]] before the credits roll.

====Generation II====
Hall of Fame records are again stored per individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Each uniquely indexed record now holds the Pokémon's species, [[level]], [[Individual values|IVs]], [[Trainer ID number]] and [[nickname]]. Although the IVs are not visible, they are used to display the Pokémon's [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{p|Unown}} {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Unown|form}}, if any of the three apply to the given specimen. The Pokémon's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation II|index number]] is also displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's species index itself.

All [[Generation II]] games store the player's 30 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would again delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 31 times, feats 31 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 180 Pokémon records to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, Trainer ID number, playing time, sprite, and number of Pokémon obtained are displayed during the ending scene, along with each [[Party|team]] member's unique record beforehand. [[Professor Oak]] also evaluates the player's [[Pokédex]] before the credits roll.

====Generation III====
Hall of Fame records are now stored per each [[Party|team]], so as to save time traversing through records. This means that a single member team is given a single record, while a six-member is team is also given a single record. Each indexed record holds an entire team's data, with each unique team member entry consisting of its species, [[level]], [[nickname]], [[personality value]], and [[Trainer ID number]]. Personality values work exactly like [[Individual values|IVs]] in [[Generation II]], in that they are not visible, yet are used to display the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{p|Unown}} and/or {{p|Spinda}} {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences||form}}, if any of the these apply to the given specimen. The Pokémon's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation III|index number]] is once again displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's species index itself.

All [[Generation III]] games store the player's 50 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 51 times, feats 51 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 50 team records, each with a maximum of 300 Pokémon total, to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, Trainer ID number, playing time and sprite are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand. Unlike previous [[generation]]s, however, each game's [[region]]al {{pkmn|Professor}} will not evaluate the [[Pokédex]]. Instead, the message <code>LEAGUE CHAMPION! CONGRATULATIONS!</code> is displayed before the credits roll.

====Generation IV====
Hall of Fame records are again stored per each [[Party|team]], so as to save time traversing through records. Each indexed record holds the date the feat took place, as well as an entire team's data, with each unique team member entry consisting of its species, [[level]], [[nickname]], [[personality value]], {{pkmn|Trainer}} name and all four learned [[move]]s. Personality values are not visible, yet are used to display the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences||form}}, if any of the three apply to the given specimen.

All [[Generation IV]] games store the player's 30 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 31 times, feats 31 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 30 team records, each with a maximum of 180 Pokémon total, to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, [[Trainer ID number]], playing time and sprite and the message <code>League Champion! Congratulations!</code> are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand.

Additionally, when a team member is displayed during the ending scene, its original [[List of locations by index number in Generation IV|catching location]] will be displayed. Whether this piece of information is stored within each team member's Hall of Fame record or not has yet to be researched.

The music that plays in the Hall of Fame in the Sinnoh games is a somber, lower-pitched version of [[Professor Rowan]]'s theme (which is also the music in the introduction to the game).

====Generation V====
{{incomplete|section|Needs research on how the Hall of Fame data is stored}}
In addition to recording the player's [[party]] after defeating the Champion in all games of Generation V, the Hall of Fame in Pokémon Black and White also records data after the player defeats [[Ghetsis]]. A maximum of 15 entries can be recorded at any time, as well as the First Game Clear. The data is again deleted using the {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. The data is stored in the "Records" section of the PC. Each entry includes the date the player entered the Hall of Fame, their Pokémon's nickname, gender, level, species, [[Original Trainer]], and moves.

====Generation VI====
After defeating the [[Elite Four]], the player's party is saved in the Hall of Fame. Stored data for each party member includes species, gender, level, nickname, Original Trainer, moves, and held items. Similarly to Generation V, a maximum of 15 [[Elite Four]] clears can be recorded at any time, as well as the First Game Clear. The data is deleted using the {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method.

====Generation VII====
In [[Generation VII]] the Hall of Fame is no longer an actual place, nor can it be recalled at a PC. Instead, when [[Hau]] or [[Professor Kukui]] is defeated in battle, the screen transitions into each Pokémon in the party, and their levels, displayed as multicolored shooting stars before transitioning to the player looking around at the stars, with the message <code>Congratulations! You are the first-ever Champion of Alola!</code> or <code>Congratulations! You defended your title!</code> (if the last battle was a title defense).

A {{tc|Golfer}} standing near the Pokémon League entrance replaces the PC function to recall data from victorious teams, but the only data that's stored in this generation are the species names, and only for two saved teams: the first victory, and the most recent one.

[[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] also lack a viewable Hall of Fame, despite the player's Pokémon being inducted into it before the game's end credits.

====Generation VIII====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the Hall of Fame is once again no longer an actual place. Instead, the title screen will now be updated to showcase each party member of the player's team after defeating [[Leon]]. In addition, each Pokémon will receive a Galar Champion Ribbon that solidifies the player having entered the Hall of Fame. Since Leon officially loses his title and position as Champion in these games, this will be the only formal Hall of Fame induction. However, this title screen may still be updated by completing a Champion tournament.

====Generation IX====
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the Hall of Fame is mentioned in the description of the Paldea Champion Ribbon received by the player's party after either defeating [[Geeta]] or winning the [[Academy Ace Tournament]]. Additionally, a pamphlet titled "Hall of Fame Badges: A Record" is located on the top floor of [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}}. Initially, only [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}} has their name listed. However, following the completion of the main story, the names of [[Nemona]], [[Arven]], [[Penny]], and the player are added to the book. There is no sequence of any kind to showcase the Pokémon that have beaten Geeta or won the Academy Ace Tournament.

===Healing Pokémon===
In [[Generation I]] games, there is no automatic Pokémon healing at the Hall of Fame. When the player resumes a Generation I game after entering the Hall of Fame, the Pokémon will still have their lost [[HP]], [[PP]], their [[status condition]]s (if any), and any [[fainting|fainted]] Pokémon will remain fainted.

From [[Generation II]] onwards, all Pokémon in the [[party]] are automatically healed when the player enters the Hall of Fame.

===Glitches===
[[File:Halloffameglitches.png|thumb|160px|Examples of corrupted Hall of Fame entries caused by MissingNo.]]
* In the [[Generation I]] games, if the player encounters [[MissingNo.]] or other [[glitch Pokémon]], the Hall of Fame data may be corrupted by a [[glitch]] in the game. When MissingNo. has been seen on the save file, the player's Hall of Fame is badly corrupted with entirely different {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, which will often consist of glitched characters and names. Players can often see particular Pokémon in the Hall of Fame, whether they have seen them in the [[Pokédex]] or not. This effect also works in {{game|Yellow}} when encountering glitch Pokémon through the [[Mew glitch]]. However, a way to avoid the effects of this glitch is to encounter MissingNo. or any other glitch Pokémon before entering the Hall of Fame, because encountering a MissingNo. only affects the teams already registered in the Hall of Fame. Players can also defeat the Elite Four multiple times after having encountered MissingNo., as the game will automatically overwrite older Hall of Fame entries after the Elite Four is defeated 20 times.
* In {{game|Red and Green|s}}, performing the [[Dokokashira door glitch]] allows the {{player}} to quickly complete the game by forcing the next door to take them to another location; this can include the Hall of Fame room. This extremely hazardous and game-breaking glitch was removed from {{game|Blue| (Japanese)}}, causing it to not be present in the translated {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.
* In earlier versions of {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the game would sometimes freeze after recording the player's team data in the Hall of Fame; this glitch was patched out in the Version 1.2 update on December 3, 2014, 12 days after the games' initial release.

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Masters EX===
[[File:Hall of Fame Masters.png|thumb|150px|Hall of Fame for the Johto Challenge in Masters EX]]
Like in the core series games, in [[Pokémon Masters EX]], players may enter the Hall of Fame after defeating the Elite Four and Champion in the [[Champion Stadium]] at Hard difficulty. Unlike in the core series games however, players are required to use different [[sync pair]]s when challenging each individual Elite Four member or Champion; thus, 5-15 sync pairs can be registered at the Hall of Fame. After the Champion is defeated, a short animation will play showing the sync pair(s) that defeated the Champion before the message "Congratulations! Hall of Fame Entry No. #" appears, with the # indicating the number of times the player has entered the Hall of Fame overall within the region in rotation.

The Hall of Fame lists the date and time the Champion Stadium was cleared as well as the sync pairs that defeated each individual Elite Four member or Champion in the order they were faced. Only the region in which the Champion Stadium is running is reported for the Hall of Fame.

Should the player succeed in entering the Hall of Fame with 18 different types of sync pairs, they may obtain an MVP Medal for the region in rotation, after which they may participate in the Master Mode of the Champion Stadium.

==In animation==
[[File:Palace of Victory.png|thumb|250px|The Palace of Victory]]
===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
The Hall of Fame's only appearance in the {{pkmn|animated series}} was in ''[[EP112|Enter the Dragonite]]''. After beating {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}}, the [[Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader]], {{Ash}} earned the title of "Honorable Trainer" ({{pkmn|Champion}} in the [[dub]]) and a spot in the [[Palace of Victory]], which is also known as the [[Orange League]] Hall of Fame. A photo of the winning {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are kept on display.

===={{aniseries|RS}}====
In ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four!]]'', [[Scott]] revealed that any Trainer who successfully defeats the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} is entered into the Hall of Fame and becomes a [[Frontier Brain]] candidate. After earning his final [[Symbol]] by defeating {{an|Brandon}} in the [[AG190|next episode]], Ash entered the Battle Frontier Hall of Fame, but turned down the offer for Frontier Brain candidacy.
{{-}}

[[File:Hall of Fame PO.png|thumb|left|250px|The Hall of Fame in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
===Pokémon Origins===
The Hall of Fame appeared in ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'' after {{OBP|Red|Origins}} defeated {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} and became the Pokémon League Champion. Much like in the games, Red was led to the Hall of Fame by [[Professor Oak]], after which Red's Pokémon's data was recorded and displayed on a screen. The Hall of Fame contained numerous portraits of all the previous Champions and their Pokémon [[party|teams]].
{{-}}

== In the manga ==

=== Pokémon Adventures ===
Though there doesn't seem to be a room to register in, the [[Pokémon Association]] keeps track of each Champion winner. Sometimes, even being a Runner-up is enough to be consider hall of fame registry on technicality in the case of Runner-up No. 2 [[Blue (Adventures)|Blue]] and Runner-up No. 3 [[Green (Adventures)|Green]].

==Trivia==
* The "Congratulations" screen in the [[Generation V]] games shows the player with one of their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}; after showing one battle animation cycle, it rotates the Pokémon off-screen to the left and the next Pokémon takes its place from the right. This is similar to what occurs on the title screen of {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}.
* In [[Generation II]], the Hall of Fame counter stops at 200, despite coding for a unique message of ''"HOF Master!"'' on the 201st entry into the Hall of Fame. This error occurs due to a coding oversight that causes the counter to stop at 200 entries instead of allowing the count to go past 201 times.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Gold_and_Silver/Unused_Text#Hall_of_Fame tcrf - Hall of Fame - Unused Text]</ref>
* Although [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]] do not feature the Hall of Fame, the melody of the recurring Hall of Fame theme from previous games is used as a motif in these games, appearing in the title screen theme, the [[Gym]] theme, Leon's battle and victory themes, the music in the cutscene that plays after Leon is defeated, and the credits theme. It also makes a more subtle appearance in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]] in the theme that plays when the player defeats [[Geeta]].
* In the [[Hoenn]] games, {{Steven}}{{sup/3|RS}}{{sup/6|ORAS}}/[[Wallace]]{{sup/3|E}} states that only Champions are allowed to enter the Hall of Fame. Despite this, both [[Professor Oak]] and [[Professor Rowan]] have been seen accompanying the player into the Hall of Fame in [[Kanto]] and [[Sinnoh]], respectively.

Canalave City

Braviapert: /* Trivia */ no visiting Celestic Town, no Surf HM, so I think the "how is it possible" should be mentioned

'''Canalave City''' (Japanese: '''ミオシティ''' ''Mio City'') is a city in the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]]. Canalave City is a port city that is bisected by a canal which is crossed by a small drawbridge. It has an air of exotic and foreign culture. In {{v2|Platinum}}, its entrance is blocked until the {{player}} defeats [[Cyrus]] at [[Celestic Town]]. Large ships are moored at the piers. In the old days, the port used to be a hub of cargo transportation. The [[Move Deleter]] is in a house on the east side of town. The [[Canalave Library]] has many books on [[Sinnoh myths]]. The ferry in the canal will take people out to [[Iron Island]] and [[Fullmoon Island]] and sometimes [[Newmoon Island]].

==Slogan==
'''''Cargo Port''''' (Japanese: '''{{j|水面に　映える　街}}''' ''The city reflected upon water'')

==Geography==
===Canalave Library===
{{main|Canalave Library}}
The Canalave Library is found in the northwestern side of Canalave City. It is the only library in [[Sinnoh]] and it has shelves of books, containing [[Sinnoh myths|the myths of Sinnoh]]. It is the place the {{player}}, the {{ga|Barry|rival}}, {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}}, and [[Professor Rowan]] meet up before the player goes to [[Lake Valor]].

===Move Deleter===
{{main|Move Deleter}}
The Move Deleter is located on the east side of the city, near the seaside. He is the only Move Deleter in the [[Sinnoh]] region. Although not a hugely important place to visit, the Move Deleter is helpful for deleting moves that can't be deleted otherwise.
He is a very forgetful man, and lives alone. For no charge, the Move Deleter will make a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} forget a [[move]] it knows. This is the only way for a Pokémon to forget [[HM]] moves such as {{m|Cut}} or {{m|Fly}}. A Pokémon's move will not be forgotten if it is the only move it knows.

===Sailor Eldritch's house===
A local Sailor called [[Eldritch]] lives in a small house near the pier with his wife and young son. He works at the docks of Canalave City, which is just outside his house, and operates the boat that can take people to a variety of destinations, among them [[Iron Island]] and [[Fullmoon Island]]. After the player has both entered the [[Hall of Fame]] and obtained the [[National Pokédex]], they find that Eldritch's son has been stricken by nightmares and cannot awaken, thrashing in his sleep, saying ''"<sc>Dar</sc>... <sc>Dark</sc>... Is watching me..."''. To cure the boy, the player must go to Fullmoon Island with Eldritch's help and retrieve a [[Lunar Feather]], which will cure his son.

===Harbor Inn===
The mysterious '''Harbor Inn''' (Japanese: '''波止場の宿''' ''Wharf Inn'') is located on the north-eastern side of Canalave City, and was a thriving inn until it mysteriously closed down for many years. Now the doors remain locked and no one can seem to open them. Before obtaining the Member Card, trying to enter the Harbor Inn only yields the phrase "The door is tightly shut. It appears impossible to open." The only way to unlock the inn is by obtaining a [[Member Card]], an [[Event Pokémon|event-exclusive]] item. When inside, there is a man who puts the player into a deep sleep. Once they awake, they appear at [[Newmoon Island]], where {{p|Darkrai}} can be battled. After the event, the door to the Harbor Inn is locked again.

===Canalave Gym===
{{main|Canalave Gym}}
The Canalave Gym is the official [[Gym]] of Canalave City. It is based on {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Byron]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him receive the {{Badge|Mine}}. The Canalave City Gym is a four-story tall building made of steel platforms, lifts, and moving metal platforms. Trainers must ride the elevators and moving platforms in a certain order to reach the fourth floor, on which Byron waits. For defeating [[Byron]], Trainers receive the Mine Badge, {{TM|91|Flash Cannon}}, and the ability to use {{m|Strength}} outside of battle.

==Demographics==
===Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl===
The population of Canalave City is 40.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|DP}}====
In the {{pkmn|animated series}}, Canalave City is located on a chain of islands connected by bridges. {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}}, {{an|Brock}}, and {{an|Barry}} first arrived there via [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|blimp]] in ''[[DP103|Jumping Rocket Ship!]]'', where {{ashfr|the group}}, {{TRT}}, and their Pokémon became scattered all over the city. The city is shown to be full of confusing alleyways with many dead-ends, as well as many bridges and canals to allow boats to travel. One of the city's landmarks is the Canalave Harbor, a large pier that allows [[Human|people]] to travel to many places by boat, including [[Iron Island]], [[Fullmoon Island]], and [[Chocovine Town]]. A large bridge crosses the harbor which can open up to allow larger boats beneath it. On top, an underground sewer is also seen to lead to the harbor. The islands are also shown to contain many areas of forestland.

In ''[[DP104|Sleepless In Pre-Battle!]]'', it is revealed that {{p|Darkrai}} visits the city once a year and that usually {{p|Cresselia}} drives it away. However, the Darkrai came earlier than usual due to Team Rocket's Nightmare Machine causing all the locals to have nightmares. As a result, even the busiest shopping districts became deserted.

In ''[[DP105|Get Your Rotom Running!]]'', Ash and {{ashfr}} visited the [[Old Chateau]], where they befriended a {{p|Rotom}}, which had taken residence there after the {{wp|château}} was closed down due to a recent thunderstorm. Ash and his friends continued to stay in the city in the [[DP106|next episode]], where Ash trained for his upcoming [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}, and Dawn attempted to battle with her {{TP|Dawn|Piloswine}} for the first time.

In ''[[DP107|Ancient Family Matters!]]'', [[Byron]] returned from Iron Island. However, Ash still could not have his battle as Byron was quarreling with his son [[Roark]]. Finally, in ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'', Ash battled Byron and won, earning the {{Badge|Mine}}, his sixth [[Sinnoh League]] Badge overall. In the [[DP109|next episode]], a group of {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Wailord}} was preventing boats from leaving the Canalave Harbor. Ash helped to free a trapped {{p|Wailmer}} out of the underground sewer, allowing the Wailord to swim out. In ''[[DP110|Steeling Peace of Mind!]]'', Ash and his friends left Canalave City for Iron Island after receiving an urgent phone call from Barry.

===={{aniseries|JN}}====
In ''[[JN089|The Gates of Warp!]]'', Ash and [[Chloe]] visited the [[Canalave Library]] to do research on {{p|Palkia}}, meeting {{an|Cynthia}} there as well. Upon exiting the library, they were attacked by [[Alternate World Team Rocket]], who attempted to steal their Pokémon. When the capture failed, the evil trio decided to withdraw, with Ash and Chloe following them to the alternate world before the gateway connecting the two worlds closed. On the other side, they found themselves in {{pkmn|multiverse|an alternate Canalave City}}, where they met [[Alternate World Ash|Ash's alternate world counterpart]]. In ''[[JN090|Showdown at the Gates of Warp!]]'', Ash, Dawn, [[Goh]], and Chloe returned to their own world in Canalave City.

In ''[[JNS01|The Arceus Chronicles (Part 1)]]'', Ash and Goh traveled to Canalave City to attend a [[Sinnoh Festival|festival]] dedicated to [[Hisui|ancient Sinnoh]], where they met Dawn and Cynthia. Cynthia told them about Sinnoh's history and the Pokémon that inhabited it in ancient times, even allowing them to experience catching Pokémon with old-style {{hi|Poké Ball}}s.

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Canalave City Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Canalave City in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
Canalave City first appeared in ''[[PS348|A Big Stink Over Stunky]]'' when [[Professor Rowan]] and [[Mr. Berlitz]] arrived there for an academic conference at the [[Canalave Library]].

In ''[[PS371|Drifting Drifblim]]'', Mr. Bertliz was approached by the [[Advanced level Grunt]], who claimed that [[Team Galactic]] had kidnapped his daughter {{adv|Platinum}}, using a photograph of her as evidence, and saying that her bodyguards, [[Paka and Uji]], had been dealt with. For her release, the Grunt demanded {{PDollar}}1.5 billion to be used for the construction of the Galactic Bomb, despite the fact that Team Galactic didn't actually have Platinum.

After hearing of Professor Rowan and Mr. Berlitz's disappearance in ''[[PS374|Brash Bronzong I]]'', Platinum headed to Canalave City alongside {{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}}, receiving a ride there from [[Fantina's Drifblim]]. Soon after arriving, Platinum heard her father's voice and followed it to the [[Canalave Gym]], where she was challenged by [[Byron]], who considered her, Diamond, and Pearl as intruders for having barged into the Gym in the middle of the night. At first, Platinum didn't want to fight him, but after seeing her father and Professor Rowan being trapped in a transparent cube behind Byron, she assumed he was responsible for their disappearance and fought harder, quickly defeating Byron's two {{p|Bronzong}}.

After seeing Platinum's [[Badge|Gym Badges]], Byron realized he had been wrong about her and explained that the Advanced level Grunt had trapped Mr. Berlitz and Professor Rowan inside the cube after getting the ransom money. As the cube had started to wear off over time, Platinum was able to talk with her father, who was confused when she referred to Diamond and Pearl as her bodyguards. Diamond and Pearl admitted that they were not actually her bodyguards, with her intended bodyguards having been sent to [[Distortion World|another world]] in [[Veilstone City]]. At first, Platinum was mad at them for having lied to her, but eventually, she came to realize that she too had lied to her friends on multiple occasions in the past, and apologized to them.

In ''[[PS377|Hurrah for Rapidash]]'', following Platinum's apology and the cube wearing off completely, the [[Pokédex holder]]s decided to split up in order to protect each of [[Sinnoh]]'s three lakes and the {{adv|lake guardians}} that rested within them from Team Galactic. While Pearl headed to [[Lake Valor]] and Platinum set off for [[Lake Acuity]], Byron decided to send Diamond to train with [[Riley]] at [[Iron Island]] before he'd depart to [[Lake Verity]]. After finishing his training, Diamond returned to Canalave City aboard the [[S.S. Sinnoh]] in ''[[PS382|Vexing Vespiquen & Unmanageable Mothim II]]''.

===={{MangaArc|Platinum}}====
In ''[[PS435|The Final Dimensional Duel V]]'', [[Palmer]] told Platinum how {{tc|Sailor}} [[Eldritch]] living in Canalave City had once asked him for his help in curing his son's unending nightmare. Traveling to [[Fullmoon Island]], Palmer had encountered {{p|Cresselia}}, and used a [[Lunar Feather|Lunar Wing]] dropped by it to cure Eldritch's son.

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[File:Port of Canalave DPA.png|thumb|200px|Canalave City in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]]]]
Canalave City first appeared in ''[[DPA09|Challenge! The Fortress Of Steel!!]]'', where [[Byron]] invited [[Hareta]] to train at [[Canalave Gym|his Gym]] after hearing of his loss against [[Cyrus]]. While Hareta managed to clear the Gym's obstacles easily enough, he was swiftly defeated by Byron, who told him to go train at [[Iron Island]] before their [[rematch]]. After returning from Iron Island in ''[[DPA11|The Legendary Pokémon, Captured]]'', Hareta learned of an explosion at [[Lake Valor]]. Suspecting [[Team Galactic]], he immediately headed to the lake.

In ''[[DPA31|Hareta's Excellent New Partner...Minun?!]]'', Hareta and [[Mitsumi]] met [[Professor Rowan]] and {{OBP|Jun|DPA}} at the [[Canalave Library]]. Rowan told them that the [[International Police]] was pursuing both Team Galactic and Hareta's father, [[Kaisei]], because of the latter's knowledge regarding {{p|Giratina}} and the fear of him teaming up with the former. Before the conversation could continue, the group was attacked by [[Saturn]], who wanted to get revenge on Hareta for the defeats he had inflicted upon him in the past. With the help of his recently hatched {{TP|Hareta|Minun}}, Hareta was able to once again defeat Saturn, who told him that Kaisei was at the [[Team Galactic HQ]] in [[Veilstone City]].

This is a list of cards mentioning or featuring Canalave City in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].

{{cardlist/footer|Stadium}}

==Trivia==
* The son of the sailor who owns the boat that normally goes to [[Iron Island]] says ''"<sc>Dar</sc>... <sc>Dark</sc>... Is watching me..."'' during his unending nightmare that begins the {{p|Cresselia}} event. He most likely means {{p|Darkrai}}.
** This is later verified to be true in {{g|Masters EX}}, where an NPC mutters the same words while being affected by {{mas|Cyrus}}'s Darkrai's nightmares during the {{DL|Villain arc|Sinnoh: Dreaming in Darkness}} chapter of the [[villain arc]].
* After the blast caused by Team Galactic's bomb, most of the NPCs in the city say something different than what they said previously.
* Canalave City is the first city to have a library in the Pokémon games.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, if the player tries to enter Canalave City before visiting [[Celestic Town]], they will be blocked by two men and a group of {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Clefairy}}. This can only be done by trading in a Pokémon that knows Surf before obtaining [[HM03]].
* Before entering Canalave City from {{rt|218|Sinnoh}}, there is a guard in the [[gate]] who, when talked to, says "Boy... Am I thirsty...". This is a [[List of cross-generational references|reference]] to the thirsty guards surrounding [[Saffron City]] in the [[Generation I]] games.
* During Darkrai's event, the Harbor Inn's slogan temporarily says ''A Roost for Restless Sailors. "Enjoy sweet dreams in our sumptous beds!"''. After either defeating or catching Darkrai, the Inn's slogan reverts to its original unreadable phrase.
** Also, after exiting the Inn, Eldritch appears and asks the player why they have been sleeping for so long, stating that nobody has been residing the Inn for the last fifty years.

===Origin===
{{main|Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Sinnoh|Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Sinnoh}}
Canalave City may correspond to {{wp|Otaru}}, a port city located in the western part of Hokkaido. The city is famed for the picturesque Otaru Canal and historic architecture built with {{wp|Victorian architecture|Victorian}} aesthetics.

Hall of Fame

2026-11-02T14:32:40Z

Braviapert: /* Generation III */

:''For the books, see [[Pokémon: Sinnoh Hall of Fame]] and [[Pokémon Hall of Fame (book)]].''
{{samename|{{cat|Pokémon TCG formats|Pokémon TCG format}}|Hall of Fame format (TCG)}}
----
{{incomplete|needs=VIII data. Also needs information about Generation VI}}
{{missing image|needs=Missing image/video gallery of inductions (including variants in third versions and remakes) from all handheld main series games aside from Platinum. Also needs layout maps from Generations V and VI}}
[[File:Hall of Fame B2W2.png|thumb|right|Entering the Hall of Fame in {{B2W2}}]]
The '''Hall of Fame''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|殿堂入り|でんどういり}}''' ''Induction to the Hall of Fame'') is a record kept by the [[Pokémon League]] of all the [[Pokémon Trainer]]s who have ever beaten the [[Pokémon Champion]].

A '''Hall of Famer''' is a Trainer or any of their Pokémon who entered the Hall of Fame.<ref>''"Congratulations, <player>, you and your Pokémon are Hall of Famers!"'' - [[Professor Oak]] in Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, and LeafGreen</ref> According to an unused feature found in the data of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, a '''HOF Master''' is a player who entered the Hall of Fame 200 times.

Various data regarding the victorious Trainer is recorded. The Hall of Fame was in a room accessible from the Champion's room prior to [[Generation VII]]. It may be accessed by people who have entered it by way of [[PC]].

==In the core series games==
===Data recorded===
In each game, data is recorded into the [[PC]], which is also shown during the games' ending scene. This is a list of which data is visible on the Hall of Fame PC option.

====Generation I====
Hall of Fame records are stored per individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. This means that a single member team is given a single record, while a six-member team is given six records. Each uniquely indexed record holds the Pokémon's species, [[level]], and [[nickname]]. The Pokémon's [[type]] is also displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation I|species index]] itself.

All [[Generation I]] games store the {{player}}'s 50 most recent records in ascending order. Any further records overwrite the oldest record present. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 51 times, feats 2 through 51 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 300 Pokémon records to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, playing time, [[Pokémon Dollar|money]], sprite, and number of Pokémon obtained are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand. [[Professor Oak]] also evaluates the player's [[Pokédex]] before the credits roll.

====Generation II====
Hall of Fame records are again stored per individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Each uniquely indexed record now holds the Pokémon's species, [[level]], [[Individual values|IVs]], [[Trainer ID number]] and [[nickname]]. Although the IVs are not visible, they are used to display the Pokémon's [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{p|Unown}} {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Unown|form}}, if any of the three apply to the given specimen. The Pokémon's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation II|index number]] is also displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's species index itself.

All [[Generation II]] games store the player's 30 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would again delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 31 times, feats 31 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 180 Pokémon records to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, Trainer ID number, playing time, sprite, and number of Pokémon obtained are displayed during the ending scene, along with each [[Party|team]] member's unique record beforehand. [[Professor Oak]] also evaluates the player's [[Pokédex]] before the credits roll.

====Generation III====
Hall of Fame records are now stored per each [[Party|team]], so as to save time traversing through records. This means that a single member team is given a single record, while a six-member is team is also given a single record. Each indexed record holds an entire team's data, with each unique team member entry consisting of its species, [[level]], [[nickname]], [[personality value]], and [[Trainer ID number]]. Personality values work exactly like [[Individual values|IVs]] in [[Generation II]], in that they are not visible, yet are used to display the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{p|Unown}} and/or {{p|Spinda}} {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences||form}}, if any of the these apply to the given specimen. The Pokémon's [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation III|index number]] is once again displayed; however, this value is generated from the record's species index itself.

All [[Generation III]] games store the player's 50 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 51 times, feats 51 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 50 team records, each with a maximum of 300 Pokémon total, to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, Trainer ID number, playing time and sprite are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand. Unlike previous [[generation]]s, however, each game's [[region]]al {{pkmn|Professor}} will not evaluate the [[Pokédex]]. Instead, the message <code>LEAGUE CHAMPION! CONGRATULATIONS!</code> is displayed before the credits roll.

====Generation IV====
Hall of Fame records are again stored per each [[Party|team]], so as to save time traversing through records. Each indexed record holds the date the feat took place, as well as an entire team's data, with each unique team member entry consisting of its species, [[level]], [[nickname]], [[personality value]], {{pkmn|Trainer}} name and all four learned [[move]]s. Personality values are not visible, yet are used to display the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s [[gender]], {{Shiny|alternate color}}, and {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences||form}}, if any of the three apply to the given specimen.

All [[Generation IV]] games store the player's 30 most previous feats in a descending order. Any further feats would delete records in a {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. For example, if a player were to defeat the [[Elite Four]] 31 times, feats 31 through 2 would be displayed in that order, with 1 having been overwritten. This storage allows for a maximum of 30 team records, each with a maximum of 180 Pokémon total, to be displayed in the Hall of Fame at any given time.

In addition, the player's name, [[Trainer ID number]], playing time and sprite and the message <code>League Champion! Congratulations!</code> are displayed during the ending scene, along with each team member's unique record beforehand.

Additionally, when a team member is displayed during the ending scene, its original [[List of locations by index number in Generation IV|catching location]] will be displayed. Whether this piece of information is stored within each team member's Hall of Fame record or not has yet to be researched.

The music that plays in the Hall of Fame in the Sinnoh games is a somber, lower-pitched version of [[Professor Rowan]]'s theme (which is also the music in the introduction to the game).

====Generation V====
{{incomplete|section|Needs research on how the Hall of Fame data is stored}}
In addition to recording the player's [[party]] after defeating the Champion in all games of Generation V, the Hall of Fame in Pokémon Black and White also records data after the player defeats [[Ghetsis]]. A maximum of 15 entries can be recorded at any time, as well as the First Game Clear. The data is again deleted using the {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method. The data is stored in the "Records" section of the PC. Each entry includes the date the player entered the Hall of Fame, their Pokémon's nickname, gender, level, species, [[Original Trainer]], and moves.

====Generation VI====
After defeating the [[Elite Four]], the player's party is saved in the Hall of Fame. Stored data for each party member includes species, gender, level, nickname, Original Trainer, moves, and held items. Similarly to Generation V, a maximum of 15 [[Elite Four]] clears can be recorded at any time, as well as the First Game Clear. The data is deleted using the {{wp|FIFO|First In, First Out}} method.

====Generation VII====
In [[Generation VII]] the Hall of Fame is no longer an actual place, nor can it be recalled at a PC. Instead, when [[Hau]] or [[Professor Kukui]] is defeated in battle, the screen transitions into each Pokémon in the party, and their levels, displayed as multicolored shooting stars before transitioning to the player looking around at the stars, with the message <code>Congratulations! You are the first-ever Champion of Alola!</code> or <code>Congratulations! You defended your title!</code> (if the last battle was a title defense).

A {{tc|Golfer}} standing near the Pokémon League entrance replaces the PC function to recall data from victorious teams, but the only data that's stored in this generation are the species names, and only for two saved teams: the first victory, and the most recent one.

[[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] also lack a viewable Hall of Fame, despite the player's Pokémon being inducted into it before the game's end credits.

====Generation VIII====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the Hall of Fame is once again no longer an actual place. Instead, the title screen will now be updated to showcase each party member of the player's team after defeating [[Leon]]. In addition, each Pokémon will receive a Galar Champion Ribbon that solidifies the player having entered the Hall of Fame. Since Leon officially loses his title and position as Champion in these games, this will be the only formal Hall of Fame induction. However, this title screen may still be updated by completing a Champion tournament.

====Generation IX====
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the Hall of Fame is mentioned in the description of the Paldea Champion Ribbon received by the player's party after either defeating [[Geeta]] or winning the [[Academy Ace Tournament]]. Additionally, a pamphlet titled "Hall of Fame Badges: A Record" is located on the top floor of [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}}. Initially, only [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}} has their name listed. However, following the completion of the main story, the names of [[Nemona]], [[Arven]], [[Penny]], and the player are added to the book. There is no sequence of any kind to showcase the Pokémon that have beaten Geeta or won the Academy Ace Tournament.

===Healing Pokémon===
In [[Generation I]] games, there is no automatic Pokémon healing at the Hall of Fame. When the player resumes a Generation I game after entering the Hall of Fame, the Pokémon will still have their lost [[HP]], [[PP]], their [[status condition]]s (if any), and any [[fainting|fainted]] Pokémon will remain fainted.

From [[Generation II]] onwards, all Pokémon in the [[party]] are automatically healed when the player enters the Hall of Fame.

===Glitches===
[[File:Halloffameglitches.png|thumb|160px|Examples of corrupted Hall of Fame entries caused by MissingNo.]]
* In the [[Generation I]] games, if the player encounters [[MissingNo.]] or other [[glitch Pokémon]], the Hall of Fame data may be corrupted by a [[glitch]] in the game. When MissingNo. has been seen on the save file, the player's Hall of Fame is badly corrupted with entirely different {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, which will often consist of glitched characters and names. Players can often see particular Pokémon in the Hall of Fame, whether they have seen them in the [[Pokédex]] or not. This effect also works in {{game|Yellow}} when encountering glitch Pokémon through the [[Mew glitch]]. However, a way to avoid the effects of this glitch is to encounter MissingNo. or any other glitch Pokémon before entering the Hall of Fame, because encountering a MissingNo. only affects the teams already registered in the Hall of Fame. Players can also defeat the Elite Four multiple times after having encountered MissingNo., as the game will automatically overwrite older Hall of Fame entries after the Elite Four is defeated 20 times.
* In {{game|Red and Green|s}}, performing the [[Dokokashira door glitch]] allows the {{player}} to quickly complete the game by forcing the next door to take them to another location; this can include the Hall of Fame room. This extremely hazardous and game-breaking glitch was removed from {{game|Blue| (Japanese)}}, causing it to not be present in the translated {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.
* In earlier versions of {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the game would sometimes freeze after recording the player's team data in the Hall of Fame; this glitch was patched out in the Version 1.2 update on December 3, 2014, 12 days after the games' initial release.

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Masters EX===
[[File:Hall of Fame Masters.png|thumb|150px|Hall of Fame for the Johto Challenge in Masters EX]]
Like in the core series games, in [[Pokémon Masters EX]], players may enter the Hall of Fame after defeating the Elite Four and Champion in the [[Champion Stadium]] at Hard difficulty. Unlike in the core series games however, players are required to use different [[sync pair]]s when challenging each individual Elite Four member or Champion; thus, 5-15 sync pairs can be registered at the Hall of Fame. After the Champion is defeated, a short animation will play showing the sync pair(s) that defeated the Champion before the message "Congratulations! Hall of Fame Entry No. #" appears, with the # indicating the number of times the player has entered the Hall of Fame overall within the region in rotation.

The Hall of Fame lists the date and time the Champion Stadium was cleared as well as the sync pairs that defeated each individual Elite Four member or Champion in the order they were faced. Only the region in which the Champion Stadium is running is reported for the Hall of Fame.

Should the player succeed in entering the Hall of Fame with 18 different types of sync pairs, they may obtain an MVP Medal for the region in rotation, after which they may participate in the Master Mode of the Champion Stadium.

==In animation==
[[File:Palace of Victory.png|thumb|250px|The Palace of Victory]]
===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
The Hall of Fame's only appearance in the {{pkmn|animated series}} was in ''[[EP112|Enter the Dragonite]]''. After beating {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}}, the [[Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader]], {{Ash}} earned the title of "Honorable Trainer" ({{pkmn|Champion}} in the [[dub]]) and a spot in the [[Palace of Victory]], which is also known as the [[Orange League]] Hall of Fame. A photo of the winning {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are kept on display.

===={{aniseries|RS}}====
In ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four!]]'', [[Scott]] revealed that any Trainer who successfully defeats the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} is entered into the Hall of Fame and becomes a [[Frontier Brain]] candidate. After earning his final [[Symbol]] by defeating {{an|Brandon}} in the [[AG190|next episode]], Ash entered the Battle Frontier Hall of Fame, but turned down the offer for Frontier Brain candidacy.
{{-}}

[[File:Hall of Fame PO.png|thumb|left|250px|The Hall of Fame in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
===Pokémon Origins===
The Hall of Fame appeared in ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'' after {{OBP|Red|Origins}} defeated {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} and became the Pokémon League Champion. Much like in the games, Red was led to the Hall of Fame by [[Professor Oak]], after which Red's Pokémon's data was recorded and displayed on a screen. The Hall of Fame contained numerous portraits of all the previous Champions and their Pokémon [[party|teams]].
{{-}}

== In the manga ==

=== Pokémon Adventures ===
Though there doesn't seem to be a room to register in, the [[Pokémon Association]] keeps track of each Champion winner. Sometimes, even being a Runner-up is enough to be consider hall of fame registry on technicality in the case of Runner-up No. 2 [[Blue (Adventures)|Blue]] and Runner-up No. 3 [[Green (Adventures)|Green]].

==Trivia==
* The "Congratulations" screen in the [[Generation V]] games shows the player with one of their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}; after showing one battle animation cycle, it rotates the Pokémon off-screen to the left and the next Pokémon takes its place from the right. This is similar to what occurs on the title screen of {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}.
* In [[Generation II]], the Hall of Fame counter stops at 200, despite coding for a unique message of ''"HOF Master!"'' on the 201st entry into the Hall of Fame. This error occurs due to a coding oversight that causes the counter to stop at 200 entries instead of allowing the count to go past 201 times.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Gold_and_Silver/Unused_Text#Hall_of_Fame tcrf - Hall of Fame - Unused Text]</ref>
* Although [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]] do not feature the Hall of Fame, the melody of the recurring Hall of Fame theme from previous games is used as a motif in these games, appearing in the title screen theme, the [[Gym]] theme, Leon's battle and victory themes, the music in the cutscene that plays after Leon is defeated, and the credits theme. It also makes a more subtle appearance in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]] in the theme that plays when the player defeats [[Geeta]].
* In the [[Hoenn]] games, {{Steven}}{{sup/3|RS}}{{sup/6|ORAS}}/[[Wallace]]{{sup/3|E}} states that only Champions are allowed to enter the Hall of Fame. Despite this, both [[Professor Oak]] and [[Professor Rowan]] have been seen accompanying the player into the Hall of Fame in [[Kanto]] and [[Sinnoh]], respectively.

The '''Pokémon League''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンリーグ''' ''Pokémon League'') of [[Sinnoh]] is the location of the [[region]]'s [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}}, who may only be challenged by the {{player}} after defeating all eight Sinnoh [[Gym Leader]]s. It is located on an island north of {{rt|223|Sinnoh}} and west of {{rt|224|Sinnoh}}. Inside, the player can challenge the Champion, after defeating the Elite Four in order.

Like in [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]], reaching the Pokémon League requires first passing through Sinnoh's {{si|Victory Road}} (and a large {{OBP|waterfall|obstacle}}) to the south of the League building. The Sinnoh League is located in a castle reminiscent of a {{wp|Gothic architecture|Gothic cathedral}}, having a rose window and two towers at the very front of the building—a characteristic of Gothic architecture.

When entering the Pokémon League building for the first time, {{ga|Barry}} will encounter the player on the ground floor, as the player attempts to gain entry to the first challenge room. In {{game|Platinum}} and {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, once the player completes the story events at [[Stark Mountain]], the levels on the Elite Four and Champion's Pokémon will increase.

The lobby of the Pokémon League consists of a large, combined [[Pokémon Center]] and [[Poké Mart]] on either side of the room. In between them is a gateway to the Elite Four, blocked by a guard who will grant access when the player has earned all eight [[Sinnoh League]] [[Badge]]s. The guard is a male {{tc|Ace Trainer}}. Like in other Pokémon Centers throughout Sinnoh, the lobby of the Pokémon League building grants the player access to the [[Pokémon Center#Wireless Club 2|Wireless Club]] and a basement where they can access [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} and {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the lobby design scheme resembles a large Pokémon Center. In {{game|Platinum}}, the lobby has been upgraded to have its scheme being changed to a mainly black one and the escalator to the [[Wi-Fi Plaza]] being moved nearer the one to the Wireless Club.

===Between rooms===
Preceding each Elite Four member's room is a blue and white hallway separated into two distinct parts by a small lift and lined with yellow and red lights. The first hallway leading to Aaron's room has a longer lift than the others, and the hallway to the Champion's room features a longer hallway after the lift.

In {{game|Platinum}}, these cauldron-like fixtures have been removed, and the rooms contain various items pertinent to each member's type theme. The Champion's room is different from the others, and is larger as well as containing a lift to the entrance of the [[Hall of Fame]].

====''Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl''====
In {{aniseries|DP}}, Sinnoh's {{pkmn|League Conference}}, known as the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]], is held on the [[Lily of the Valley Island]]. The island that the Pokémon League is located on is never named in the games, so the two could be the same location.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[File:Pokémon League DPA.png|thumb|250px|The Pokémon League stadium in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]]]]
The Pokémon League first appeared in ''[[DPA23|A New Battle Begins!]]'', where the League tournament started. In [[Mitsumi]]'s first match, she went up against [[Cynthia]]. Despite faring well against her, however, Mitsumi suddenly forfeited, deciding that the competition would be more interesting that way. In ''[[DPA24|Hareta's Heart's Desire]]'', {{OBP|Jun|DPA}} was defeated by [[Koya]], while [[Hareta]] managed to overwhelm [[Flint]] to such a degree with his {{TP|Hareta|Regigigas}} that the [[Elite Four]] member chose to forfeit, admitting that his Pokémon stood no chance against the power of a [[Legendary Pokémon]].

In ''[[DPA26|Hearts and Spirits Collide]]'', during the battle between Hareta and Koya, Hareta's long-absent father, [[Kaisei]], was revealed to be in the audience, watching his son's battle. In ''[[DPA27|A Surprise Visit from Hareta's Father!]]'', Hareta and Koya's battle was interrupted when multiple {{tc|Team Galactic Grunt}}s working for [[Charon]] appeared, intending to blow up the League stadium with a powerful bomb. However, thanks to Hareta and the other {{pkmn|Trainer}}s present, the explosion was contained so that it didn't cause any damage. Kaisei then briefly met with his son, giving him a [[Pokémon Egg]] before leaving.

In ''[[DPAS4|Mitsumi's Wish]]'', Mitsumi and Cynthia had a talk following the [[Team Galactic]] attack, and decided to have a [[rematch]] after Mitsumi proclaimed that she'd use her full power to defeat Cynthia.

In ''[[DPA37|Gathering of the Legendary Pokémon!]]'', the aborted Pokémon League tournament was resumed, although its conclusion was not shown.

==Trivia==
* With [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] being at [[level]] 88 in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}'s post-[[Stark Mountain]] [[rematch]]es, the Sinnoh Pokémon League houses the highest-level Pokémon that can ever be battled at a [[Pokémon League]]. Prior to {{g|Legends: Z-A}}, it was also tied with [[Red's Pikachu]] from {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} as the highest-level [[Non-player character|NPC]]-owned Pokémon outside of a [[battle facility]].

Braviapert: /* Trivia */ it's especially the "23" that I noticed, and it's shared with BW2 Unova, except the "north-south" part

'''Route 223''' (Japanese: '''２２３ばんすいどう''' ''Water Route 223'') is a [[water route]] in eastern [[Sinnoh]], connecting [[Sunyshore City]] and the {{si|Pokémon League}}.

==Route description==
Route 223 is a complete water route consisting of a few islets. As with most other water routes, it has {{tc|Swimmer}} and {{tc|Sailor}} Trainers in it. The route starts at the northern end of [[Sunyshore City]] and ends at the southern end of the {{si|Pokémon League}}. At the end of the route is a waterfall, at the top of which is a Pokémon Center and the entrance to {{si|Victory Road}}.

==Trivia==
* {{tc|Swimmer}}♂ Oscar says that he works in a [[Pastoria Gym|Pokémon Gym]] before battle. After being defeated, he apologizes to "[[Crasher Wake|Master Wake]]".
* Route 223 is similar to {{rt|23|Kanto}} in [[Kanto]] as both routes are north-south, both routes have the north end lead to the region's Pokémon League, and both are the 23rd route of their region.

'''Ghetsis Harmonia Gropius''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ゲーチス・ハルモニア・グロピウス|Gēchisu Harumonia Guropiusu}}''' ''G-Cis Harmonia Gropius''<ref name="ghetsisdesign">[http://bystrousky.blogspot.com/2019/07/blog-post.html?m=1]</ref>) is the main villain in {{game3|Black and White|Pokémon Black, White|s}}, {{B2W2|Black 2, and White 2}}. He is one of the [[Seven Sages]] and the true mastermind behind [[Team Plasma]].

==In the core series games==
{{spoilers}}
===History===
====Background====
With the goal to take over the world, Ghetsis, seeing the innocence within the orphan child [[N]], adopted him and started educating him in preparation for making him the king of [[Team Plasma]]. To warp his image of the world, Ghetsis only allowed Pokémon that had been mistreated by humans to accompany N, reinforcing his belief that humans and Pokémon should be separated, and made him live in his room in [[N's Castle|his castle]] for most of the time. Eventually, once he was old enough, Ghetsis crowned N as the king of Team Plasma and sent him out on a quest to befriend one of the [[Tao trio|Legendary Dragon Pokémon]] of [[Unova]].

===={{game|Black and White|s}}====
Ghetsis first appears holding a speech in [[Accumula Town]], where he is trying to rally its citizens. After that, he appears at several points in the game, trying to warn the citizens of the oncoming change, and he is often the one that comes to rescue other [[Seven Sages]] if they are nearing arrest. After the player and [[Alder]] come to the [[Relic Castle]] he is already there and tells them that if they are to battle N, they must retrieve the [[Light Stone]]{{sup/5|Bl}}/[[Dark Stone]]{{sup/5|W}}. He also appears making a similar speech to his one in Accumula Town in [[Opelucid City]]. He later appears at the castle during [[N]]'s takeover and taunts the player before battling N. After the player defeats N, he reveals he has been using N and revived {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}} for N to use, and calls N a disappointment. He reveals that his and Team Plasma's motive for stealing Pokémon was a lie all along and that Ghetsis wanted to ensure that he was the only person in Unova with Pokémon, so he could dominate the region (this was previously foreshadowed by him referring to himself during speeches referring to Team Plasma's goals before correcting himself and saying Team Plasma). According to a Grunt in the castle, he was even learning of ways to manipulate hearts of people. Alder and [[Cheren]] both hear the truth from Ghetsis. Ghetsis battles the player in a rage, despite N's protest. After the battle, Alder and Cheren arrest Ghetsis and take him away. He is not seen again in this game.

During the post-game, Cheren reveals that the [[Shadow Triad]] had helped Ghetsis to escape. When the player meets the Shadow Triad for the final time on [[Marvelous Bridge]], they reveal that Ghetsis is currently on the run. He has lost everything, including his Pokémon, and only the Shadow Triad are still loyal to him. For some reason, he has ordered the Shadow Triad to stop looking for him and deliver the player the [[Adamant Orb|Adamant]], [[Lustrous Orb|Lustrous]], and [[Griseous Orb]]s.

===={{B2W2}}====
Ghetsis is revealed to be the true mastermind behind the new Team Plasma, which had seemingly been led by [[Zinzolin]], [[Colress]], and the Shadow Triad. After Colress is defeated, Ghetsis confronts the player and angrily denounces Colress as being more interested in science than in Team Plasma's ambitions, even after being appointed as the organization's official leader. He leaves the player to fight the Shadow Triad while he enters the [[Giant Chasm]] with {{p|Kyurem}}. By the time the player catches up with him, Ghetsis has prepared his plan to freeze all of [[Unova]]. He summons Kyurem to his side and orders it to use {{m|Glaciate}} on the player, only for N to arrive with Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} and interfere. This however was part of Ghetsis's plan, and while berating N for causing what will happen to Unova as a result of N's refusal to be his pawn in the previous games, Ghetsis uses the [[DNA Splicers]] to forcibly revert Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} into its [[Dragon Stones|stone form]]. Kyurem then {{pkmn|fusion|fuses}} with the stone, creating Black Kyurem{{sup/5|B2}}/White Kyurem{{sup/5|W2}}. Ghetsis challenges the player to fight Black Kyurem{{sup/5|B2}}/White Kyurem{{sup/5|W2}}, preventing it from being captured via a signal from his cane that disrupts the function of [[Poké Ball]]s. Upon the defeat of Kyurem, its Absofusion is reversed, separating it back into Kyurem and Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}}. Ghetsis flies into a rage and attacks the player, starting a final battle. When he is defeated, he suffers a mental breakdown and violently rejects the compassion N shows him. The Shadow Triad take him away from the Giant Chasm and later inform the player that Ghetsis has lost his heart and is no longer mentally capable of any further criminal deeds, finally ending his threat to Unova.

====[[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]====
=====[[Episode RR]]=====
An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Ghetsis, as he appears in Pokémon Black and White, appears as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]]. This Ghetsis, like the other members of Team Rainbow Rocket, was brought from a world where his plans succeeded, in his case successfully separating Pokémon from humans. After arriving in the game's world, Ghetsis began pondering the reasons for his being summoned. He then concluded that his purpose was to travel between worlds and liberate all Pokémon from people, consolidating power in himself so that he may rule over all of existence. For this purpose, he intends to use [[Giovanni]] as a pawn, reasoning that a human with an evil nature will be easier to manipulate than [[N|a freak without a human heart]]. He appears through the [[warp panel]] leading to the center of [[Team Rocket's Castle]] just before the player and [[Lillie]] can go through it. Refusing to allow the player to reach Giovanni and interfere with his plans, Ghetsis challenges the player, using Zekrom{{sup/7|US}}/Reshiram{{sup/7|UM}} as part of his team. After being beaten, he refuses to accept his loss and strikes Lillie, taking her as a hostage. Ghetsis demands that the player throw down their Poké Balls if they wish to ensure Lillie's safety. No matter the player's choice, Colress appears in the room, rescues Lillie, and recognizes Ghetsis as not being the Ghetsis he knows. Ghetsis recognizes him as the Colress of the game's world, but fails to understand why he is opposing his plans, prompting Colress to declare that he simply hates Ghetsis altogether. Colress then utilizes a newly developed [[Colress Machine]] to warp Ghetsis back to his original world, hoping that the taste of defeat will keep him in check from now on.

===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
{{main|Ghetsis (Masters)}}
Ghetsis, in his {{B2W2}} design, forms a [[sync pair]] with {{p|Kyurem}} and {{p|Chien-Pao}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. His Chien-Pao is capable of Sync {{Tera}}stallizing into the {{t|Ice}} type. Ghetsis became a playable sync pair on May 4, 2021.

In this game, Ghetsis was taken from an [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]], as he was surprised when he learned that some characters such as {{mas|N}} already knew that Kyurem can {{pkmn|fusion|fuse}} with {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}, a fact that N learned from Ghetsis himself in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2. He has made notable appearances in the game's main stories: the [[Legendary Adventures]], and is the overall secondary antagonist of the [[villain arc]]. The whereabouts of Ghetsis from this game's continuity are currently unknown.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
[[File:Ghetsis anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Ghetsis in {{aniseries|BW}}]]
===={{aniseries|BW}}====
Ghetsis is the head and founder of Team Plasma, often referred to as "Lord Ghetsis" by his underlings. He serves as the main antagonist of the ''[[Episode N|Best Wishes! Season 2: Episode N]]'' arc. He was initially set to debut in the original {{OBP|BW024|unaired}}, but this episode was [[Banned episodes|never aired]] and was ultimately retconned out of [[canon|continuity]].

Prior to the events of the {{pkmn|animated series}}, Ghetsis, the [[Seven Sages]] and the rest of Team Plasma resided in [[N's Castle|a mansion]] where {{an|N}}, [[Anthea and Concordia]] were raised in isolation from humanity, only allowing them contact with each other and Pokémon that had been abused by humans. Ghetsis, presenting himself as a fatherly figure to N, informed the boy that he would grow up to become Team Plasma's greatest leader in their crusade against Pokémon oppression. These plans ultimately came to a head two years before the events of {{aniseries|BW}}, when Ghetsis summoned N to stand before the Seven Sages in a ceremony on the mansion's balcony. However, sensing Ghetsis's corrupt intent, {{an|Reshiram}} interrupted the ceremony and destroyed the mansion before flying away. In the confusion, N escaped with Anthea and Concordia, all three realizing Ghetsis's deception as a result of these events.

Ghetsis first appeared in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'', where he contacted [[Colress]] via hologram transmitter for an update on the Pokémon control experiments being conducted at the [[Floccesy Town]] observatory. During their conversation, {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}} and [[Looker]] approached the observatory, and Ghetsis gave Colress permission to test the Pokémon being used in the experiment on them.

Ghetsis made his physical debut in ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]'', receiving another update on the Pokémon control experiment from Colress. Later, from his command center, Ghetsis spoke to several {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s, who had separated into groups to spy on [[Cedric Juniper]]'s excavation of the {{an|White Ruins}}, search for N and the mysterious "[[Genesect Army|Project G]]" and develop "Project F" in eastern [[Unova]]. He again conferenced with Colress and [[Aldith]] in [[BW118|the next episode]], and appeared in flashbacks to the past that N revealed to Ash and his friends.
[[File:BW121 Ceremony.png|thumb|250px|Conducting the Ceremony of Revival]]
In ''[[BW119|Meowth, Colress and Team Rivalry!]]'', Ghetsis met with Colress, Aldith, and [[Barret]] via hologram, revealing his plans for the [[Light Stone]] and telling Colress that his control device would soon need to control its most powerful target yet.

Ghetsis briefly appeared via communicator with Colress in ''[[BW120|Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!]]'' before arriving at the White Ruins in ''[[BW121|Team Plasma and the Awakening Ceremony!]]''. With his followers having subdued Team Plasma's enemies, Ghetsis took the Light Stone and placed it on a pedestal in the ruins, then used his staff to initiate the ritual leading to Reshiram's awakening. In ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]'', Ghetsis successfully summoned Reshiram and, with the help of Colress's machine, took control of it. He turned its power against his enemies and sent it on a rampage, but when {{AP|Pikachu}} managed to resist the control device and shock Reshiram, it escaped Ghetsis's control. He angrily reproached Reshiram for its rebellion, only to have his escape route cut off when Reshiram destroyed Team Plasma's aircraft. Ghetsis and his henchmen were ultimately arrested by Looker, and he was last seen in the back of a police van with Colress, Aldith and Barret, slumped over in defeat.

====Character====
While Ghetsis frequently projects a calm demeanor, it is an act designed to mask his true nature as a mad, power-hungry tyrant. His persona is seen to easily slip when his goals are delayed or he feels frustrated, such as by Colress's more casual attitude towards Team Plasma's objectives, causing him to become much more serious and demanding. He cares little for even his most faithful followers, allowing them to be caught up in Reshiram's rampage once he gained control of it via Colress's device. When he faces opposition he easily flies into an enraged state that causes him to take reckless action, even screaming angrily at Reshiram after losing control over it despite having no way to subdue it. After facing defeat, however, he finally gave up and was left silent by his failure as the police took him away.

However, his plan to control it failed, as his goals led Reshiram to become enraged and destroy Team Plasma's mansion before flying away. These events were recounted by N in a flashback in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]''.

In ''[[BW121|Team Plasma and the Awakening Ceremony!]]'', N surrendered the Light Stone to Team Plasma in exchange for Colress releasing Ash's Pikachu from his control. Ghetsis then arrived at the White Ruins and initiated the ceremony, resulting in Reshiram's resurrection in ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]''. This time, Ghetsis had Colress use his Pokémon Control Device on Reshiram, placing it under Team Plasma's control. Ghetsis ordered it to go on a rampage, turning its power on both his enemies and his own followers, but when Pikachu fought Colress's control and shocked it, Reshiram began to regain its free will.

Reshiram helped Pikachu destroy the machine, freeing all the controlled Pokémon, but then went on an even more violent rampage, stopping only when N managed to talk it down. Ghetsis still refused to admit defeat, however, admonishing Reshiram for disobeying him. After Ghetsis was captured along with the other members of Team Plasma, N came to understand Reshiram's motivations, and it departed peacefully.}}

[[File:Ghetsis B2W2 Adventures.png|thumb|left|220px|Ghetsis in the {{MangaArc|Black 2 & White 2}}]]
====History====
====={{MangaArc|Black & White}}=====
Ghetsis debuted in ''[[PS466|An Odd Speech]]''. At [[Accumula Town]], Ghetsis introduced [[Team Plasma]] and their campaign to the general public. He gave a speech encouraging the townspeople to liberate their Pokémon and return them to the wild. While some chose to ignore his words, several people were swayed by Ghetsis's words and proceeded to release their Pokémon.

In ''[[PS495|The Battle Within]]'', the [[Seven Sages]] watched as the [[Shadow Triad]] and Unova [[Gym Leader]]s battled for possession of the [[Dark Stone]]. Ghetsis left, revealing he was going to [[Nacrene City]] to join the battle. In ''[[PS497|Finding Truth]]'', Black was tricked by a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}} in disguise into revealing where the Dark Stone was kept. Once the stone was located, Ghetsis attacked Black with his {{p|Eelektross}}, knocking him unconscious. Ghetsis took the Dark Stone to N at the [[Dragonspiral Tower]], where he proceeded to awaken the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Zekrom}}.

In ''[[PS520|Cold Hard Truth]]'', Team Plasma launched their attack on the {{un|Pokémon League}}, surrounding the building with [[N's Castle]]. As a form of mockery and display of Team Plasma's power, the [[Gym Leader]]s were hoisted on cross-like fixtures and displayed in front of the masses. While Black went ahead to face N, a group of regular Trainers led by {{tc|Hiker}} Andy fought the sages in his place, eventually succeeding in freeing the Gym Leaders. Outnumbered, the sages fled, but Ghetsis chose to sneak into the castle, where N and Black were having their final battle.

In ''[[PS523|The Power of Dreams]]'', Ghetsis found N unconscious, having already lost to Black. Ghetsis revealed his connection to N and that he had been manipulating his adoptive son as a pawn in his scheme to make Pokémon illegal for everyone other than Team Plasma. He attacked Black, hoping to silence him and prevent the public from ever learning of N's defeat. Black struggled initially due to Ghetsis's team being tailored to counter his own, but with his {{p|Musharna}}, [[Musha]], Black uncovered and defeated Ghetsis's secret weapon—a {{p|Volcarona}}. Once the rest of Ghetsis's team had fallen, Black had the sage trapped in a prison of {{m|Stone Edge}} pillars, putting an end to Team Plasma's ideals.

In ''[[PS524|A Difficult Parting]]'', Ghetsis watched as N bid his farewells to Black and {{adv|White}} before leaving. Once N left, Black's {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Reshiram}} began reverting into the [[Light Stone]]. Ghetsis used [[Colress]]'s {{p|Beheeyem}} to free himself from the prison and send Black flying towards Reshiram, preventing him from being trapped inside of the Light Stone as well.

====={{MangaArc|Black 2 & White 2}}=====
In ''[[PS528|Innocent Scientist]]'', Colress revealed that Ghetsis is still an active member of Team Plasma, though he had given up his leadership to the scientist.

In ''[[PS538|Therian Forme III]]'', Ghetsis arrived at [[Driftveil City]], where he found Colress in battle with {{adv|Blake}}. Using his [[Colress Machine]], Colress took control of [[Zinzolin]]'s {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Kyurem}} and had it loaded onto Team Plasma's flying ship, the [[Plasma Frigate]]. The frigate was flown to [[Castelia City]], where it used a special Kyurem-powered cannon to freeze several buildings and people solid.

In ''[[PS542|N Returns]]'', Ghetsis and Colress found that N had returned to Unova due to Zekrom being attracted to Kyurem's growing power. Ghetsis took command of Kyurem and set out to battle with his former son. Upon being warned to not let his paternal feelings get the better of him, Ghetsis assured Colress that he never felt any sort of attachment towards N.

In ''[[PS543|Abyssal Ruins]]'', Ghetsis obtained the [[DNA Splicers]], which allowed Kyurem to revert Zekrom back into the Dark Stone, trapping N inside with it. Kyurem absorbed the Dark Stone, transforming it into {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Kyurem|Black Kyurem}}. Reacting to Zekrom's absorption, the Light Stone reverted into Reshiram, freeing Black in the process. Black and White briefly fought Kyurem, but were distracted when N was ejected from the Dark Stone, giving Ghetsis the chance to attack and escape. Not wanting N to interfere with his control over Kyurem, Ghetsis knocked him off of Kyurem's back, sending him into the ocean below. Unbeknownst to Ghetsis, Colress secretly took N aboard the Plasma Frigate, curious about his ability to hear the voices of Pokémon.

In ''[[PS545|Deduction Time]]'', Ghetsis and Colress followed Kyurem, who had started moving towards the [[Giant Chasm]] of its own free will. Noticing the {{adv|Swords of Justice}} were giving chase, Ghetsis ordered the Shadow Triad to attack them.

In ''[[PS547|The Final Battle]]'', Ghetsis was confronted by {{adv|Whitley}}, N, [[Alder]], and {{adv|Looker}} deep within the Plasma Frigate. N stated he intended to take all the Pokémon stolen by Team Plasma and return them to where they properly belonged. Ghetsis denied this, declaring that he'd rather die along with his dream than live as a prisoner. He activated a self-destruct mechanism, causing an explosion that tore the Plasma Frigate apart from the inside, sending everyone flying. Ghetsis was saved by N, who stated that despite everything, he still loved Ghetsis as a father. Disgusted, Ghetsis rejected N's love, calling him a monster while beating his former son unconscious and bleeding. As he plummeted towards the ground, Ghetsis laughed at his villainy, only to be surprised when he was caught by Zekrom, who delivers him into Looker's custody.

Later, as he was being arrested by the [[International Police]], Ghetsis swore to one day return and restart his ambition to manipulate and lead the people. Whitley assured Ghetsis that his schemes would never succeed, stating that even if he were to somehow fool humans into following him, the Pokémon hurt by Team Plasma wouldn't be tricked and would never forgive him. Noticing the liberated Pokémon had begun to glare at him with anger in their eyes, Ghetsis fearfully broke down and walked into the police helicopter for his own safety.

Ghetsis used it to camouflage itself with the sun, allowing it to make Hydreigon's Fire-type attacks more powerful in secret. Eventually, it was found out when Black had Musha eat his dreams and then defeated by Costa's {{m|Stone Edge}}. Afterward, Ghetsis expressed disappointment in its easy defeat.

Volcarona did not appear in the {{MangaArc|Black 2 & White 2}}, thus leaving its current whereabouts unknown.

==In the TCG==
===Ghetsis===
[[File:GhetsisPlasmaFreeze115.jpg|200px|thumb|Full Art Ghetsis]]
{{main|Ghetsis (Plasma Freeze 101)}}
'''Ghetsis''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Black & White Series (the Japanese Black & White Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Team Plasma Battle Gift Set}} and the English {{TCG|Plasma Freeze}} expansion, with artwork by [[Yusuke Ohmura]]. A [[Full Art]] version of the card with artwork by [[Kanako Eo]] was released in the Japanese {{TCG|Spiral Force}} expansion and the English Plasma Freeze expansion. It forces the opponent to reveal their hand and shuffle all {{TCG|Item card}}s found their into their deck. Then, the player draws a number of cards equal to the number of Item cards the opponent shuffled into their deck. This card has been banned from the {{TCG|Expanded format}} since August 17, 2018.

===Boss's Orders===
During the English Scarlet & Violet Series (the Japanese Scarlet & Violet Era), Ghetsis was featured on the recurring {{TCG ID|Paldea Evolved|Boss's Orders|172}} card. The Japanese {{TCG|Triplet Beat}} subset and the English {{TCG|Paldea Evolved}} expansion included a Regular print with artwork by [[NC Empire]], an {{TCG|ultra rare}} version illustrated by [[Hideki Ishikawa]], and a {{TCG|special illustration rare}} print with artwork by [[hncl]]. Like previous copies of Boss's Orders, the card lets the player switch in one of their opponent's Benched Pokémon to the Active Spot.

===Other cards===
In Japan, as part of the Team Rainbow Rocket's Ambition campaign, seven Pretend Boss Pikachu cards were released as {{TCG|SM-P Promotional cards}}, [[Pretend Boss Pikachu (SM-P Promo 195)|one of which]] resembled Ghetsis.

==Trivia==
[[File:Ghetsis right arm.png|thumb|250px|Ghetsis's right arm in the {{game|Black and White|s}} [[game intro]]]]
*According to his designer Keiko Moritsugu<ref name=ghetsisdesign>[http://bystrousky.blogspot.com/2019/07/blog-post.html?m=1]</ref>, Ghetsis is 200 cm (6'6") tall.
* During a fan meeting event held in the Yokohama Pokémon Center on August 5, 2012, [[Junichi Masuda]] revealed that Ghetsis's first name was originally going to be spelled differently (ゲーツィス ''Gētsisu'' rather than ゲーチス ''Gēchisu''), and romanized as ''G-Cis''.
* The top of Ghetsis's robes in his {{2v2|Black|White}} appearance resemble the {{wp|battlement}}s of a castle.
* Ghetsis has several unique attributes, as he is the only [[villainous team]] leader that:
** uses a [[Powerhouse Pokémon]].
** is never battled more than once per game.
** serves as the final main game opponent in a [[core series]] game; this makes him the first final main game opponent to not be a Champion.
** is seen to be arrested at the conclusion of his plot in the {{pkmn|animated series}}.
* In {{B2W2}}, all of Ghetsis's Pokémon he also had in Black and White are two levels lower in Normal Mode and six levels lower in Easy Mode. However, they are two levels higher in Challenge Mode.
* Ghetsis's right arm is almost always concealed. In the core series, it is only seen in Pokémon Black and White's [[game intro]], where it is shaded darker than his left arm, while in {{aniseries|BW}}, it is not seen at all. In [[Pokémon Generations]], both of his arms are shown, although he still primarily uses the left one. In [[Pokémon Evolutions]], he is seen wearing a dark glove over his right hand and arm.
** In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, Ghetsis mentions that he is going to take the player down with his "own hand" in singular, instead of "hand'''s'''" in plural, even though both forms of the [[Wiktionary:by one's own hand#English|phrase]] are commonly used.
** If {{mas|Ghetsis}}'s model in [[Pokémon Masters EX]] is viewed with his cape removed, it can be seen that his right arm is usually held behind his back<ref>https://twitter.com/PokeMasModels/status/1404594315364651013</ref>, as shown in some of his animations and in the Photo Creator, where the model can be posed. The [[Pokémon Center (store)|Pokémon Center]] Boss Pikachu plush of Ghetsis also has its right arm in a similar position.
** In addition to this, his right eye remains hidden by an eyepiece, with his first concept art showing it having a scar around itself.
** In his game appearances, his mouth also appears to have a slight slant to the left, as shown by his in-game sprites and models. This trait is not present in his incarnations from the animated series.
* Ghetsis's incarnation in {{aniseries|PTS}} appears to combine traits of his two main video game incarnations. His personality is similar to his characterization in Black and White, but his outfit and open motives are taken from Black 2 and White 2.
** Ghetsis was to appear with his Black and White design in [[BW024 (unaired)|the originally intended 24th episode]] of ''Pokémon the Series: Black & White'', but it was indefinitely postponed and its events were later retconned out of [[Canon|continuity]]. As a result of this episode being [[Banned episodes|banned]], all of Ghetsis's appearances in {{pkmn|animation}} depicted his Black 2 and White 2 design until the release of the music video [[GOTCHA!]] in September 2020. His original design was seen as a shadow in the music video, and later made its first full appearance in Pokémon Evolutions.
* Ghetsis bears some resemblance to Giovanni in his goals of world domination, a focus on Pokémon theft, a controversial parenthood, and the degradation of his sanity after being twice defeated by a child. However, Giovanni's appearance in Black 2 and White 2 shows him in a non-antagonistic role, while Ghetsis continues to be an antagonist.
* In Black and White, Ghetsis's Hydreigon has a super effective move against all of N's Pokémon in his final team.
* Ghetsis's Hydreigon is the only NPC Pokémon to have minimum [[friendship]], and is, therefore, the only one to use {{m|Frustration}} with maximum power.
* In {{game|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|s}}, Ghetsis is the only antagonist leader who uses a legendary from the opposite original version.

==Blurb==

The preliminaries are over, and now the Hoenn League Championships begin in earnest! The qualifying round is all double battles, and Ash goes to watch Morrison's match against muscleman Gavin. Morrison's Growlithe and Gligar are up against Marowak and Machamp, and no punches are pulled in this all-out battle! It's not looking good for Morrison until Gligar uses Guillotine to knock Machamp out. But Marowak defeats Growlithe, and Gligar finally wins.

Ash is jogging along after the match, minding his own business, when he falls into another Team Rocket pit trap. But just as they finish their motto, their new boss catches them in the act and shouts at them to get back to work. Team Rocket runs away and Ash wonders what's going on, but not for long—he's up next in the qualifying round!

Ash sends out Torkoal and Corphish. His opponent Dominic sends out Swalot and Tropius, which may grant him an aerial advantage. But Ash's trusty Torkoal gives it all it's got, and takes down Tropius in a double KO. As for Swalot, its resilient body resists Corphish's attacks. Finally Corphish charges in, throws Swalot, and gets up close and personal to deliver a Bubble Beam that knocks its opponent out! Tyson has also won his first match, and now our Trainers move on to round 2!

==Plot==
While {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are waiting for the match-ups for the second round of the [[Ever Grande Conference]], [[Nurse Joy]] explains the next round of {{pkmn|battle}}s are [[Double Battle]]s and that three wins are required to advance. She presents the match-ups to the crowd, and Ash learns that his next battle will take place in Stadium C. However, [[Morrison]] is thrilled to see that his match will be held earlier.

The group and {{ho|Tyson}} watch as Morrison enters Stadium E to face off against [[Gavin]] from [[Ganga Town]]. He sends out {{p|Growlithe}} and {{p|Gligar}} and Gavin sends out {{p|Marowak}} and {{p|Machamp}}. Morrison orders Growlithe to use {{m|Take Down}} on Marowak, though it responds with a {{m|Headbutt}} knocking Growlithe to the field. Gligar soars in for a {{m|Guillotine}}, though Machamp counters with {{m|Karate Chop}}. Growlithe regains strength and uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, but Marowak's {{m|Bone Club}} blocks it. Gligar is hit by a {{m|Dynamic Punch}} and then a {{m|Cross Chop}}. Machamp is badly struck by Gligar's {{m|Steel Wing}} and Growlithe takes damage from a {{m|Bonemerang}} attack. Marowak charges through an oncoming Flamethrower and slams a Headbutt on Growlithe. Marowak freezes Growlithe's legs with an {{m|Ice Beam}} and strikes it down with a Bone Club.

Gavin orders {{m|Vital Throw}}, but Gligar counters with Guillotine. A weak Machamp is struck several times by Gligar's Steel Wing, before being defeated by another Guillotine. Gavin soon makes some progress after Marowak slams Growlithe out of the match with a Bone Club, making the battle a one-on-one affair now. Gligar's Guillotine and Marowak's Headbutt attacks collide, sending both hurtling towards the ground. During the fall Marowak aims an Ice Beam and freezes one of Gligar's wings who slams into the ground. After struggling from a Bonemerang, Gligar charges in to take Marowak’s Bone Club attack head-on. Even more surprisingly, Gligar uses {{m|Iron Tail}} to win the match, allowing Morrison to advance to the next round.

As Ash prepares for his upcoming match, he and {{AP|Pikachu}} are caught off guard when they fall into a pitfall trap. As {{TRT}} appear to claim their catch, their employer bursts through the wall and sends them running. Ash makes it to his Stadium C battle against [[Dominick]] from [[Inua Town]]. Ash chooses {{AP|Torkoal}} and {{AP|Corphish}} while Dominick sends out {{p|Tropius}} and {{p|Swalot}}. Tropius starts off by flying up in the air and whips a {{m|Razor Leaf}} at Ash. Torkoal and Corphish's defense block the oncoming attack. Tropius's tries a {{m|Bullet Seed}}, which proves futile against Torkoal's {{m|Iron Defense}}. Swalot attacks Corphish with a {{m|Sludge Bomb}} as Tropius uses {{m|Gust}} to send Torkoal flying. Torkoal lands a direct hit on Tropius with a Flamethrower, but its opponent dodges the follow up {{m|Overheat}}, much to Ash’s frustration. Corphish dodges Swalot's {{m|Body Slam}} and replies with a {{m|Bubble Beam}}, which simply slides off Swalot’s expandable body.

Ash changes up his tactics, Tropius defends against Torkoal's and Corphish's combined attacks. Tropius begins charging up for a {{m|Solar Beam}} attack, so Corphish and Torkoal lashes it with a {{m|Crabhammer}} and Flamethrower respectively. As Tropius finally launches its Solar Beam, Torkoal counters with another Overheat. The two attacks collide, resulting in a large explosion that knocks Tropius and Torkoal both out. Dominic is unfazed and has Swalot's use two {{m|Shock Wave}} attacks to injure Corphish. Corphish is hit by a Body Slam, which it soon escapes with a Crabhammer but gets struck down by a barrage of {{m|Shadow Ball}}s. Ash has Corphish rush towards its opponent, using its claw to block the oncoming Shock Wave attack. Corphish eventaully gets close enough and grabs a hold of Swalot by the whiskers before tossing it onto the battlefield. Seeing this as a good attack, Ash has Corphish to aim a Bubble Beam in Swalot's mouth. A minor explosion occurs from the internal pressure and Swalot faints. Ash wins and qualifies to the next round.

[[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} are tired of working, but their work soon pays off when their employer walks in and praises them for their hard work with food. As the pair stuff their faces, the trio agrees to work the stands tomorrow. Later, Ash and Morrison get into a heated argument over whose match was better. [[Max]] interrupts, and using his [[PokéNav]] he reveals that {{ho|Tyson}} also won his battle. Ash and Morrison are equally thrilled by the news and set their sights on winning their next matches.

==Major events==
* [[Morrison]] defeats [[Gavin]] in a [[Double Battle]], advancing to the next round.
* {{Ash}} defeats [[Dominick]] in a Double Battle, advancing to the next round.
* {{ho|Tyson}} also wins his Double Battle, advancing to the next round.

==Trivia==
* [[Advance Adventure]] is used as background music.
* The episode's English [[dub]] title is a pun of the phrase "{{wp|rags to riches}}".
* This is the last episode where {{TRT}} recites their original {{motto}} before switching to the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} motto.
* Despite {{m|Guillotine}} having existed in the {{pkmn|games}} since [[Generation I]], this is the [[List of moves by animated series debut|first time]] it is used in the {{pkmn|animated series}}.

===Errors===
[[File:AG127 error.png|thumb|210px|Swalot's missing whiskers]]
* In the Japanese version, the announcer says that {{p|Gligar}}'s Guillotine (the one that defeated {{p|Machamp}}) was a [[critical hit]], despite the fact that it is impossible for Guillotine (or any [[one-hit knockout move]]) to be a critical hit. This is corrected in the English dub.
* When Machamp is hit by Gligar's Guillotine the first time, it is still standing. In the {{pkmn|games}}, it [[Animation physics|wouldn't be able to battle anymore]], as Guillotine is a one-hit knockout move. However, it may be because Gligar's pincer is closed when it hits Machamp with the attack.
* When {{p|Marowak}} defeats {{p|Growlithe}}, it disappears when [[Morrison]] appears in the split-screen.
* Gligar takes damage from Marowak's {{m|Bonemerang}} and {{m|Bone Club}}, despite being a {{t|Flying}} type.
* Right before the explosion caused by {{AP|Corphish}} firing {{m|Bubble Beam}} into {{p|Swalot}}'s mouth occurs, Swalot's whiskers disappear.
* In the {{pmin|Brazil|Brazilian Portuguese}} dub, {{m|Harden}}'s English name is kept, even though it had been referred to as ''Endurecer'' or some variation of it before in [[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire|the same series]].
* When Gligar is hit by Machamp's Dynamic Punch, it isn't seen becoming confused. In the games, it always confuses the opponent when it hits.

===Dub edits===
* The ''{{wp|melonpan}}'' that {{an|May}} and {{ho|Tyson}} are eating by the start of Morrison's match are called cheeseburgers.
* In the original Japanese version, when [[Gavin]] and [[Dominick]] are introduced, cheerleaders can be heard chanting in the background. Said chanting is removed in the English dub.
* In the English dub, Marowak's Japanese voice is used in place of Gligar's in certain parts of the episode.
* In the original Japanese version, after Corphish's Bubble Beam fails to affect Swalot, {{Ash}} decides to have Corphish and {{AP|Torkoal}} gang up on {{p|Tropius}} instead. In the English dub, he instead decides to "try a combined attack", meaning that Corphish and Torkoal just attack Tropius on their own accord.

====[[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]====
* Question: Trainers, which of these Pokémon would be considered {{pkmn2|legendary}}?
* Choices: {{p|Salamence}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Milotic}}
* Answer: OK, Trainers! If you chose Entei, you were right!

Talk:Marowak (Pokémon)

2026-04-17T13:48:04Z

Braviapert: /* Type effectiveness note */

== Stadium 2 Pokedex Entry ==
<_< Pretty sure Marowak only has '''one head'''. --[[User:Dual|Dual]] 13:59, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
:Looks like someone pasted {{P|Dodrio}}'s entry there by mistake. [[User:Zurqoxn|Zurqoxn]] 18:02, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Is it really necessary to link EVERY mention of the word 'boomerang' to Bonemerang? --[[User:Gastly's Mama]]

== Marowak's inital attack stat is doubles by Thick Club, not it's base stat! ==
So, if it was the be mesured by a base stat, it would be as high as about 210. --[[User:Gorebyss|Gorebyss]] 11:31, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

== Trivia ==

Can't we just say that Marowak had the most signature moves UNTIL generation 4, where Lucario eliminated Bone Rush, and Porygon-Z and Vespiquen gained 3?

Or something along those lines. It doesn't make sense, as Lucario was even technically introduced BEFORE gen 4 and PZ and Vespiquen?[[User:Vib|Vib]] 23:29, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

== Grammar ==

In the Origin section, "it's" should be "its."--[[User:Trebligoniqua|Trebligoniqua]] 18:07, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

== Trivia ==

Is it noteworthy that the appearance of Marowak in the Lavender Tower is the only wild Pokémon that cannot be captured?--[[User:Skaisdead|Skaisdead]] 18:46, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

==Trivia, again==

"When holding the Thick Club, Marowak can reach a maximum Attack stat of 568. This is the highest attack stat obtainable without the assistance of stat-enhancing moves, abilities, or berries." I removed that because a bunch of Pokemon with a Choice band can surpass it and some Pokemon with Life orb as well. It was reverted because Thick club is Marowak specific, which makes it notable. However there is {{tt|only one other|Light Ball}} species specific item riases attack, is it really notable that of the 3 Pokemon that have a species specific attack raising item, Marowak has the highest attack? Or am I missing something? [[User:Pikiwyn|'''Pikiwyn''']] [[User talk:Pikiwyn|<tt>'''''talk'''''</tt>]] 17:58, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

== More Trivia ==

"It is possible to have a Marowak with an attack of 568 if the Thick Club is being held, while having max EVs and IVs in attack, plus a nature that raises its attack."

Is this really noteworthy? Clamperl doesn't get a trivia statement about the use of a DeepSeaTooth. {{unsigned|Scribbl}}

== Hawaiian Night Marcher ==

could the Alolan origin be based off the hawaiian night marcher mythos?[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 18:40, 4 September 2016 (UTC)

== Alolan Evolution ==

It has come to my attention that you must have your Happiness high/possibly max on a Cubone before evolving it at level 28 at night. It cannot just be, as stated, to level it to 28 at night. I have experimented with this myself in Pokemon Sun. I don't know how this hasn't been listed before, but almost nowhere else on the internet mentions it either.--[[User:AtomicBugg|AtomicBugg]] ([[User talk:AtomicBugg|talk]]) 03:48, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

== Clarification on "regional form" and evolution (top of page) ==

It's mentioned at the top page of the article that -"''In [[Alola]], Marowak has a {{2t|Fire|Ghost}}-type [[regional form]]. It evolves from Cubone when leveled up at [[Time|night]] starting at level 28.'' '''All Cubone in Alola evolve into this form regardless of their origin.'''" Although it does state that "All Cubone in Alola" evolve into Alolan Marowak, it does not warn players that it can '''only''' evolve into Alolan Marowak in Alola. I feel this can be a bit confusing for players such as myself when reading this. After transferring my Alolan Marowak into Galar and attempting to breed and evolve it into Alolan Marowak for a different ability, I was met with no success and after some research found that "''Alolan Marowak is a regional evolution not a regional form. This means that only by evolving it in alola can you get him.''". Could we include this tidbit into the top page so players alike avoid any misunderstanding with breeding Marowak outside of Alola, whether it is coming from LGPE or SMUSUM. This can be frustrating. --[[User:Cloud9Skywalker|Cloud9Skywalker]] ([[User talk:Cloud9Skywalker|talk]]) 05:30, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

== Egg Moves in Gen VIII ==

I see that for the moves Detect and Double Kick in the Egg Moves table, it says that there is no legitimate way to pass down those two moves. However, can't someone transfer a Cubone/Marowak from Gen VII that knows one of those moves and breed? If the game recognizes Detect and Double Kick as Egg Moves then the Cubone that hatches will know them. That is certainly a legitimate way to get those two moves.

I guess to fix the table, we would put Cubone and Marowak as the only parents for Detect and Double Kick, and maybe add a special note that says "Transfer from Gen VII" to correct this issue. {{unsigned|Hero231}}}

== Grass-Types? ==

In no dex entry does Marowak have a rivalry with Grass-types. I get it's a Ground type, but come on, a lot of other Pokémon are weak to Grass-types. As far as I'm concerned, that fact does not even make sense, because there are so little, if any Grass-types where it would live. Who even got the idea to ''say'' that?--[[User:Power-Point Panpour|Power-Point Panpour]] ([[User talk:Power-Point Panpour|talk]]) 03:25, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
:The information was from the official Pokemon site, but the cited link doesn't work.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:37, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
::Oh, okay. I looked there, and you are right. I just found that fact a little odd. Thank you for correcting me.--[[User:Power-Point Panpour|Power-Point Panpour]] ([[User talk:Power-Point Panpour|talk]]) 17:25, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

== Type effectiveness note ==

It is mentioned that if Marowak doesn't have Lightning Rod, it's weakness to electric-type moves becomes x1, although it is a ground type, so it's supposed to stay x0 regardless of its ability. The info on Ring Target is correct though. -- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 11:46, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

:Isn't the sentence as a whole correct though, since it's saying if the (Kantonian) Marowak has a [[Ring Target]], whereby its immunity to Electric moves is removed? [[User:Thespeon|Thespeon]] ([[User talk:Thespeon|talk]]) 12:20, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

::So you mean it requires it to not have Lightning Rod for the Ring Target to work? Alright. In that case I'd suggest editing the sentence so that it says "If this Pokémon is given a Ring Target '''while''' its Ability is not Lightning Rod" to avoid confusion. -- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 13:48, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

'''Steven Stone''' (Japanese: '''ツワブキ・ダイゴ''' ''Daigo Tsuwabuki'') is a skilled [[Pokémon Trainer]] who [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. He is the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Hoenn]] [[region]]'s [[Hoenn League|Pokémon League]] in [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire]], [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire]], as well as the Hoenn League Champion during {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

A collector of rare stones, Steven is the son of the [[Mr. Stone|president]] of the [[Devon Corporation]], and makes his home in [[Mossdeep City]]. In the Hoenn-based games, he wanders the region, aiding the {{player}} on their {{pkmn|journey}}. In {{game|Emerald}}, [[Wallace]] replaces him as the Champion, and it is unknown whether Steven was ever the Champion in this game.

==In the core series games==
[[File:Steven challenge RS.png|thumb|left|250px|{{ga|Brendan}} challenging Steven in Ruby and Sapphire]]
[[File:Steven Latios ORAS.png|thumb|200px|Steven flying on {{p|Latios}} with the player]]
[[File:Steven Pokémon League ORAS.png|thumb|200px|Steven challenging the player]]
In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, Steven is first met in [[Granite Cave]] when the {{player}} delivers him a [[letter]] from [[Mr. Stone|his father]]. As thanks, Steven gives the player the [[TM]] for {{m|Steel Wing}} before leaving. He is later briefly met again on {{rt|118|Hoenn}} after the player has crossed the body of water running across the route. On {{rt|120|Hoenn}}, he gifts the player with the [[Devon Scope]], allowing them to detect invisible {{p|Kecleon}}. At his house in [[Mossdeep City]], Steven gives the player {{HM|08|Dive}}. After {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/3|R}}/{{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/3|S}} has been awakened, Steven tells the player follow him to [[Sootopolis City]], where he escorts them to the [[Cave of Origin]]. Later, at the {{ho|Pokémon League}} in [[Ever Grande City]], Steven reveals himself to be the [[Hoenn League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}. Following his defeat, he escorts the player into the [[Hall of Fame]].

In {{game|Emerald}}, Steven is a powerful, wandering Trainer who gave up competing seriously to spend more time looking for rare rocks and stones. In addition to the encounters in Ruby and Sapphire, Steven now also assists the player in stopping [[Team Magma]]'s takeover of the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] by joining them in a [[Multi Battle]] against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]]. Once the player has defeated the new Champion, [[Wallace]], a special chamber opens up at [[Meteor Falls]], where Steven challenges the player to a high-level battle.

In {{game|Platinum}}, the person who gives the player their [[Villa]] in the [[Resort Area]] mentions that the man who gave him the Villa came to [[Sinnoh]] to collect rare stones and returned to his home in [[Hoenn]] after finding all the rare stones he wanted, heavily hinting that the previous owner was Steven.

Steven also appears in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, introducing himself as the Hoenn Champion. The player first meets him when they leave the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Vermilion City]] after collecting {{OBP|Copycat|character}}'s [[Lost Item]], where he will inform them that there have been reports of a {{p|Latios}}{{sup/4|SS}}/{{p|Latias}}{{sup/4|HG}} {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Kanto]]. The player meets him a second time after defeating {{ga|Red}} in [[Mt. Silver Cave]], appearing in the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]] and letting the player choose one of three colored stones: the Green Stone, the Red Stone, or the Blue Stone. Depending on which color is picked, he will give the player one of the three [[Hoenn first partner Pokémon]]. He can later be found in the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], examining a shelf. After visiting and speaking to him there, he will return to the Silph Co. building and offer to [[In-game trade|trade]] the player a {{p|Beldum}} holding a [[Dawn Stone]] for a {{p|Forretress}}.

If the player has the [[Enigma Stone]] and enters the Pewter Museum of Science, an event will occur in which Steven will be talking to one of the museum's researchers. When he is spoken to, he will notice the Enigma Stone and have the researcher examine it. The researcher will extract the [[Soul Dew]] from the stone and give it to the player. Steven will tell the player that Soul Dew is said to be the solidified spirits of Latias and Latios, and that it can bring out their true potential. Upon walking outside, Latias{{sup/4|SS}}/Latios{{sup/4|HG}} will be waiting to battle the player, drawn to them by the Soul Dew. Once it has been caught, Steven will head back to Hoenn.

In {{game|Black and White|s}}, a tourist who visits [[Undella Town]] in the {{season|summer}} mentions Steven, explaining that he is a very powerful Pokémon Trainer who collects stones. In {{B2W2}}, Steven appears alongside the other Champions from the first five [[generation]]s as an opponent in the [[Champions Tournament]] at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, Steven performs mostly the same role as he did in Ruby and Sapphire, with several alterations. For example, the encounter with him in Granite Cave now serves as foreshadowing for [[Primal Reversion]], and the encounter with him on Route 118 leads to him and the player visiting [[Southern Island]] to defend Latios{{sup/6|OR}}/Latias{{sup/6|AS}} from Team Magma{{sup/6|OR}}/[[Team Aqua]]{{sup/6|AS}}, after which he gives the player a [[Mega Bracelet]] and teaches them about [[Mega Evolution]] before they return to mainland and part ways. On Route 120, in addition to the Devon Scope, he also gives the player the [[Mega Stone]] for the Hoenn first partner Pokémon they chose at the start of the game.

Steven plays a major role in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire's [[Delta Episode]], attempting to find a way to stop a [[Grand Meteor Delta|giant meteoroid]] from destroying the [[Pokémon world]]. He summons the player to his help via their [[PokéNav Plus]], first having them come to the [[Devon Corporation]] building in [[Rustboro City]] so that his father can explain the situation. Afterwards, Steven heads for the Mossdeep Space Center, while the player retrieves a [[Meteorite Shard]] required to power a device called the dimensional shifter, which is meant to warp the meteoroid away. Steven later retrieves another Meteorite Shard from Meteor Falls for the same purpose, where he and the player also meet an elder of the [[Draconid people]]. When the Space Center is later invaded by Team Magma{{sup/6|OR}}/Team Aqua{{sup/6|AS}}, the player joins Steven in a Multi Battle against [[Courtney]]{{sup/6|OR}}/[[Matt]]{{sup/6|AS}} and a [[Grunt]]. Afterwards, the dimensional shifter is stolen and destroyed by [[Zinnia]], who calls Steven and [[Professor Cozmo]] out on not considering the possibility that the device could've sent the meteoroid to [[Pokémon multiverse|another world]] that would have no method of dealing with it. Figuring that Zinnia is trying to use {{p|Rayquaza}} to stop the meteoroid, Steven enlists Wallace's help in letting the player gain access to the [[Sky Pillar]]. At the end of the Delta Episode, a cutscene shows Steven requesting Wallace to take his place as Champion once he leaves the Pokémon League to travel someday, which Wallace accepts.

After the Delta Episode, Steven also appears as a Multi Battle partner at the [[Battle Maison]]. After he's beaten in a [[rematch]] at the Pokémon League, he gives the player a [[Metagrossite]].

In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, after the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]], Steven will leave a Beldum and a note for the player at his house in Mossdeep City. In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, he leaves one for the player after the Delta Episode is fully completed and has it hold an [[Iron Plate]].

===GOTCHA!===
Steven briefly appeared in [[GOTCHA!]].

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Steven Adventures.png|thumb|320px|Steven in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
====={{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}=====
Steven is the [[Hoenn League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}, having taken the position from [[Wallace]], who turned down the title despite winning the previous Pokémon League tournament.

Steven debuted in ''[[PS191|Blowing Past Nosepass II]]''. There, he spoke to [[Captain Stern]] about the status of the creation of the [[Submarine Explorer 1]]. In ''[[PS194|Guile from Mawile]]'', Steven rescued {{adv|Ruby}} from a hoard of rampaging {{p|Mawile}} in [[Granite Cave]]. Once they escaped, Steven considered recruiting Ruby to help him combat [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]], but decided against it due to Ruby's young age. Steven said his farewells to Ruby and headed off.

In ''[[PS250|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XII]]'', Steven arrived at the [[Lilycove Department Store]] and found Wallace battling [[Tabitha]], who had gone berserk from touching the [[Blue Orb]]. Steven revealed that after the Submarine Explorer 1 was stolen, he went to other regions and recruited the Hoenn [[Elite Four]] as allies against {{adv|Super-ancient Pokémon|Groudon and Kyogre}}. Steven passed his title of Hoenn League Champion to Wallace and sent the Elite Four to three locations where the [[Legendary Pokémon]] [[Brandon's legendary giants#Pokémon Adventures|Registeel, Regirock, and Regice]] were sealed. With a [[blind boy]]'s help, Steven attempted to decipher an stone slab containing the secret to awaken the sleeping Pokémon. The slab was too damaged to properly translate, forcing the plan to be abandoned.

In ''[[PS253|A Royal Rumble with Regirock, Regice and Registeel I]]'', Steven found [[Sootopolis City]] surrounded by a massive explosion of energy. Amidst the chaos, Steven found and rescued {{adv|Sapphire}}, who handed him a [[letter]] she received from his father, [[Mr. Stone]]. The letter contained a decoding for the missing part of the slab, allowing Steven to finish the translation. With assistance from Sapphire's {{p|Wailord|Lorry}} and {{p|Relicanth|Relly}}, Steven successfully awakened {{p|Registeel}}, {{p|Regirock}}, and {{p|Regice}}. Steven and Sapphire were then separated by another explosion. Steven, Wallace, and the Elite Four separated into three teams of two and used Registeel, Regirock, and Regice to contain the energy generated from Groudon and Kyogre's clash and prevent it from spreading throughout Hoenn. Their efforts lasted for several weeks until ''[[PS263|It All Ends Now IV]]'', when Ruby and {{adv|Norman}} ended Groudon and Kyogre's battle with {{p|Rayquaza}}'s power, returning the super-ancient Pokémon to their slumber. Controlling three Legendary Pokémon for so long left Steven so exhausted that he collapsed and died soon after. With Steven's passing, Registeel, Regirock, and Regice returned to the wild.

In ''[[PS263|It All Ends Now VIII]]'', Steven and those who lost their lives in the fight against Groudon and Kyogre were revived by Ruby's {{adv|Celebi}}'s [[time travel]] powers. With Team Magma and Team Aqua defeated, Steven celebrated the victory with his allies and thanked Ruby and Sapphire for their assistance in the battle.

====={{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}=====
[[File: Steven ORAS chapter.png|thumb|200px|left|Steven in the thirteenth chapter]]
In the thirteenth chapter, it was discovered that [[Grand Meteor Delta]], a giant meteoroid, would crash into Hoenn and destroy the planet. To prevent this disaster, Steven enlisted the help of Ruby, Sapphire, and {{adv|Emerald}}. In ''[[PS596|Metagross Investigates]]'', Steven had [[Ultima]] train the Hoenn [[Pokédex holder]]s' Pokémon—[[Mumu]], [[Chic]], and {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}}—in mastering the ultimate moves so they would be prepared to use [[Mega Evolution]]. Despite Ruby being elsewhere on other business, Mr. Stone had everyone move onto the next phase once the training had finished.

In ''[[PS601|Beedrill Prepares]]'', Steven, Sapphire, and Emerald arrived on the [[Sea Mauville]]. The former energy plant contained a machine called an [[ultimate weapon|Absorber]] capable of fueling a dimensional shifter designed to deal with Grand Meteor Delta. That night, Emerald was attacked by a mischievous {{p|Hoopa}}. Steven assisted Emerald in battling the [[Mythical Pokémon]], revealing he was capable of using Mega Evolution as well. Hoopa eventually escaped before Steven and Emerald could defeat or identify it.

In ''[[PS603|Slowbro Has an Idea]]'', Steven and Mr. Stone used the Absorber to drain Emerald's Sceptile and Sapphire's Chic of their life energy while in their Mega-Evolved states. Once the process was finished, the Sea Mauville was raided by by [[Zinnia]], a [[Draconid people|Draconid]] with a hatred for the [[Devon Corporation]]. Zinnia and her allies made of former Team Magma and Aqua members attempted to destroy the dimensional shifter, forcing Steven, Sapphire, and Emerald to defend it. By the time Ruby returned, everyone realized that Sapphire and the shifter had disappeared due to Hoopa's interference. With the shifter gone, Zinnia attempted to steal Steven's [[Key Stone]] but was convinced to leave when Ruby offered up his and Emerald's [[Mega Bracelet]]s in exchange.

In ''[[PS606|Diancie Shines]]'', Steven and Mr. Stone stayed behind while Ruby and the others went ahead to find an alternate solution to the meteoroid impact. They received a call from the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] stating that Sapphire successfully delivered the shifter. While [[Professor Cozmo]] and [[Professor Cozmo's assistants|his assistants]] outfitted the shifter onto a rocket, Steven and his father traveled to [[Mossdeep City]] to deal with the public, who had learned of the upcoming disaster due to a news leak. In ''[[PS608|Groudon Returns]]'', Steven and Mr. Stone arrived at Mossdeep. Sapphire told Steven that she sensed Zinnia's presence and went off to prevent her from interfering with the rocket's launch. Sapphire and Zinnia's clash led to them battling on top of the rocket as it flew through the air. Eventually, Sapphire was defeated, allowing Zinnia to destroy the dimensional shifter and knock the rocket down into the ocean.

In [[PS615]], Steven and Mr. Stone arrived at Sootopolis, where Zinnia was taken to after she failed to get {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} to join her. Mr. Stone apologized for trying to control Rayquaza years ago, only for Zinnia to reject it, claiming he was only trying to save face for his failures. When Zinnia gave up and stated it was impossible to stop disaster, Emerald suggested the differing factions worked together to save the planet. Together, everyone gathered allies from across Hoenn, [[Kanto]], and [[Johto]] to assist in stopping Grand Meteor Delta. While the plan was being set up, Steven gave Zinnia a jar of Key Stones that were collected at the [[Embedded Tower]]. When Zinnia assumed the stones Steven and Hoenn Pokédex holders used were stolen from the late [[Aster]], Steven explained he received those from the [[Gurkinn|Mega Evolution guru]] in the [[Kalos]] region.

In ''[[PAORAS21|Omega Alpha Adventure 21]]'', the plan to destroy Grand Meteor Delta went underway. Ruby and Sapphire rode on Mega Rayquaza into space, where they attacked the meteoroid with {{m|Dragon Ascent}}. Back on Earth, Steven and the three allied regions launched a simultaneous attack on Grand Meteor Delta, successfully shattering it into pieces. With the crisis averted, Steven and the others watched as Ruby and Sapphire flew back to Sootopolis with Rayquaza.

Once everything had returned to normal, Steven was revealed to be taking {{p|Diancie}} back to its home in Kalos.

====={{MangaArc|Platinum}}=====
In ''[[PS417|Leaping Past Lopunny]]'', Steven was revealed to have spent time collecting stones in the [[Sinnoh]] region. After obtaining the stones he wanted, Steven sold the [[Villa]] he had built to use as a home base. The Villa was bought by {{adv|Platinum}} shortly afterward.

==Trivia==
* In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, as well as {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|their remakes}}, Steven states that his favorite Pokémon is {{p|Beldum}} and that his favorite move is {{m|Steel Wing}}. Consequently, he leaves Beldum in his house as a {{pkmn2|gift}} for the {{player}}, and gives the player the [[TM]] for Steel Wing in [[Granite Cave]].
* In Emerald, when the player speaks to Steven in [[Meteor Falls]] before their battle, he mistakenly refers to battling alongside the player in the {{ci|Sootopolis}} Space Center. The Space Center is actually in [[Mossdeep City]].
* The battle with Steven against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]] is the only occasion in the [[Generation III]] games where the player teams up with an ally for a [[Multi Battle]].
** It is also the only Multi Battle with an NPC ally where the NPC's Pokémon gains [[experience]].
*** While it is normally impossible for Steven's {{p|Metang}} to gain enough experience in this battle to [[Level|level up]], enabling this through [[Cheating|hacking]] will cause Metang to evolve.
* Steven's [[Trainer ID number]] is 61226 in Pokémon Emerald, 23478 in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, and 11214 in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
** The ID number 11214 is a nod to the release date of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire; November 21, 2014.
* Steven shares his French name (Pierre) with [[Brock]], the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]. In the French dub of ''[[AG022|A Hole Lotta Trouble]]'', he keeps his English name of Steven Stone so as to not be confused with {{an|Brock}}, who was traveling with {{Ash}} at the time when {{ashfr|the group}} met Steven.
** However, from ''[[XY075|Rivals: Today and Tomorrow!]]'' onward, he is referred to as Pierre Rochard.
** In the games where both Steven and Brock appear, Steven is referred to as "P. Rochard" (HeartGold and SoulSilver) and "Rochard" (Black 2 and White 2).
* Despite being a {{type|Steel}} specialist, all of Steven's teams feature just as many or more {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.
* In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Steven mentions to [[Wallace]] that he will relinquish his position as Champion sometime in order to travel the world, and asks Wallace if he will become Champion in his place, [[List of cross-generational references|referencing]] their roles in Emerald.
* In the rematch with Steven in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, all of his Pokémon have at least one immunity.
** In the Elite Four and Champion rematch in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Steven is the only trainer in the Hoenn Pokémon League to use a Pokémon from {{p|Aerodactyl|Generation I}}.
* In {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, Steven is the only trainer in the Hoenn Pokémon League to use a Pokémon that isn't from {{p|Aerodactyl|Generation III}}.
* In Emerald, {{ga|Brendan}} and {{ga|May}} share their battle theme with Steven.
* If the player skips obtaining the [[HM]] for {{m|Dive}} from Steven's house in Ruby and Sapphire (by [[Trade|trading]] in a Pokémon with the move), Steven will leave the HM at his house in the post-game alongside Beldum.
* In Emerald, during the Multi Battle at the [[Mossdeep Space Center]], if the player has a Pokémon with {{a|Guts}} out at the same time with Steven's {{p|Skarmory}}, it may attempt to target the player's Pokémon with {{m|Toxic}} to trigger the [[Ability]].
* In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, when trading {{p|Forretress}} for Steven's Beldum, Steven has special dialogue if the traded Forretress has maximum [[friendship]].

== Masters model of Gigantamax Pokémon ==
I've seen that you have been adding/updating some of the images from Pokémon Masters EX. I was wondering if you could add models of the Gigantamax forms of Pokémon from Masters EX. Right now the images that I have been using for the Dynamax page are the official artwork of the G-Max Pokémon, not the models of the Gigantamax Pokémon in Masters EX. Also, the images that I have been using for the G-Max page are from Pokémon Home. I would like the images to be actually from the game, so if it is possible, could you please get the models of the Gigantamax Pokémon from Masters?

If you do upload the images, please tell me so I can update the pages myself, that way you won't have to update the pages yourself. I know you are busy with editing other pages, so I wouldn't mind lightening the workload on that small task. [[User:TBR2001]] ([[User talk:TBR2001|talk]]) 22:35, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

:Unfortunately all the "models" I have are the ones that appear in the in-game menus, since those are actually just sprites. Gigantamax forms only appear during the Max Move/G-Max Move cutscenes, not menus. I don't know how to extract or construct the models myself, so the best I could do is take screenshots of the Pokémon before they use their moves. If that's acceptable, I could get a screenshot of every Gigantamax Pokémon except Pikachu. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 00:37, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

::It's alright, I think it is better to leave it the way it is. Otherwise, the background will look jarring when you compare them to their original forms, which have no background. However, I could add the screenshots of the Gigantamax Pokémon to the Gigantamax page if you still want to take those screenshots.

== Neo Champion tournaments ==

In your edit summary, you mentioned that every tournament has featured a rival beating a player character (Calem beating Serena, Hop/Bede/Marnie beating Gloria/Victor, and Blue beating Leaf). However, I don't think it makes sense to count both Calem/Serena and Blue/Leaf at the same time.

The character based on the player character in the Kanto games is Red, so it feels weird to count Blue beating Leaf just because you can play as her in the games when the same is also true for Calem. [[User:PokemonMasterJamal3|PokemonMasterJamal3]] ([[User talk:PokemonMasterJamal3|talk]]) 20:00, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
:OK, I'll give you that, the Kanto NC tournament doesn't really feature a rival beating the player character because Red is the clear canon protag from the Kanto games. However, I maintain that saying it happens "often" is still accurate if it happens in 2 out of 3 tournaments. Perhaps we could combine the two statements? "Every tournament to date has featured only [[player character]]s and [[rival]]s, and they often feature a rival triumphing over a player character."

[[User:Hikaru_Wazana/Masters_Eight#Gallery]]

: Yeah, they should be bigger. I have them at 1457x2048, but when converted to .png the file size is too large to be uploaded to the Archives (they're .jpgs when I download them from Twitter).

== Creating templates ==

This is going to be ambitious and complicated. Yet, I thank you for reading this comment! As I stated in FinnishPokéFan92's talk page, I wish to create templates that show attributes of moves and sync moves featured in Pokémon Masters EX, please. (Examples: the following link's two blocks for [[Aeroblast_(move)#Pok.C3.A9mon_Masters_EX|Aeroblast]].) How much are able to teach me? I appreciate any knowledge and experience that you are willing to share! [[User:Solemn Mac|Solemn Mac]] ([[User talk:Solemn Mac|talk]]) 15:23, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
:Well, the way I learned to create templates is by looking at other templates to see how they work! [[Template:MastersEventInfobox]] and [[Template:MastersMissionTable]] are good examples of what you can do with templates (I created both of those myself, so I might be biased :P). [[:Category:Other templates]] has some templates for attacks in other spin-offs, so that might be a good place to start building the specific template you have in mind. If you click the "edit this page" or "view source" button on a template page, you can view the source code and see how it's constructed.
:A couple basic tips to help with reading template code: parameters are denoted with triple curly braces, like <code>{{{this}}}</code>. If there's a word in between the braces, that parameter is a named parameter, so you'll have to specify the name of the parameter in the template call (i.e. <code><nowiki>{{incomplete|needs=Missing image}}</nowiki></code>). If there's a number in between the braces, that's an unnamed parameter, which just need to be placed in a specific order in the template call. For example, the 2nd parameter in the template call is automatically passed to the <code>{{{2}}}</code> parameter. Lastly, if you see a parameter like <code><nowiki>{{{this|example}}}</nowiki></code>, "example" is the default value of the "this" parameter. If you don't specify a value for "this", then "example" will be used by default. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 18:54, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
::This next part is going to make me look ignorant, but first, I thank you for all the info that you gave to me in your messages! So, I am told that I should create a new template in a user subpage, and I do that by "mak[ing] an article at User:<yourname>/<pagename>." I can find my own talk and user pages, and I know how to make a new section, but I'm afraid that making a user subpage is out of my element now. So, how I find this ''User:<yourname>/<pagename>''? I am confident that your expertise in user subpages will be a wonderful guiding star! [[User:Solemn Mac|Solemn Mac]] ([[User talk:Solemn Mac|talk]]) 06:32, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
:::Oh, it's the same as making a new page! There are a few ways to do that:
:::* Type the name of the page into any editing form, put brackets around it, and preview your edit. Click on the link you created, and it'll automatically bring you to the page creation form.
:::* Type the name of the page into the search bar and click "search". A prompt will appear at the top of the search list giving you the option to create the page.
:::* Edit the URL of the page directly, typing the name of the page after "/wiki/". Make sure you use underscores instead of spaces, though.
:::So, you just create a page called "User:<yourname>/<pagename>" and the wiki will recognize it as a subpage of your user page. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 21:46, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
::::I thank you so much for all that information, Storm Aurora! Soon, I will use these facts to make my first template! [[User:Solemn Mac|Solemn Mac]] ([[User talk:Solemn Mac|talk]]) 23:37, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
:::::Not a problem, good luck! And you can just call me Storm~ [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 02:53, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
::::::As I was removing some of my tool tips, I have created my first finished template. It is located here: {{red link|User:Solemn_Mac/MG_Slot|link}}. So, how do I get it approved for general use? [[User:Solemn Mac|Solemn Mac]] ([[User talk:Solemn Mac|talk]]) 16:04, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
{{indent}}First things first, userspace pages/templates shouldn't use categories intended for mainspace pages, so I've gone ahead and hidden the category on that template for you. Second, it needs to be reviewed and approved by staff. Normally that's done by putting {{template|mainspace}} on the page with the <code><nowiki>{{{status}}}</nowiki></code> parameter set to <code>complete</code>, but since you've brought it up to me directly, I can look it over for you.

My primary concern about this template is where/how you intend it to be used. If it's just going to be used in a template for Masters moves, it's best to just paste the code you're using for this template into the other template, rather than calling a template within the other template (that ends up inflating the include size of the other template).

I also don't think it's necessary to use a switch statement here. When the only difference between the options is a single word (one, two, three, or four), it's simpler to just make that word the parameter so that you're just inserting that word into the file name (<code><nowiki>[[File:Move gauge {{{1|four}}} slots.png]]</nowiki></code>). As for the slot/slots thing, we could change the image names so that they're all using the same name scheme (<code>Move gauge one slot</code>, <code>Move gauge two slot</code>, etc. or <code>Move gauge one slots</code>, <code>Move gauge two slots</code>, etc.) or use an if statement to determine if "slot" or "slots" is used. The if statement is cheaper to use performance-wise, since it's just one comparison compared to four or five for the switch statement. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 21:01, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
:I can tell that these templates don't look promising now. You are probably believing that they will harm Pokémon Masters EX's image. I assure you that I will use your feedback to make templates that '''bolster''' this game's impression! How does that sound?

: Excuse me, Storm. Is this a bad day to ask you some questions? [[User:Solemn Mac|Solemn Mac]] ([[User talk:Solemn Mac|talk]]) 12:59, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
::Nah, other people have the new information from the Presents under control. What's up? [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 15:20, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

:::Thank you! One, how do I delete a needless template? Two, how can I limit a parameter's values (e.g., numbers 11-21 or five certain strings)? [[User:Solemn Mac|Solemn Mac]] ([[User talk:Solemn Mac|talk]]) 17:12, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
::::To answer your first question, most users can't delete pages (including template pages); that ability is restricted to admin or higher staff members. You'll need to put the {{template|delete}} template at the top of the page you want deleted, and an admin will come by later and delete it for you. To answer your second question, there's no way to limit a parameter's values; if the template doesn't work with a certain value, it doesn't work. Editors need to be careful that they're using acceptable values for the templates they call. Template documentation exists to help users know what the acceptable values for a parameter are. {{template|MastersRoleCell}} and {{template|MastersMissionTable}} are good examples of templates that require specific values for some of their parameters, and they have good documentation to help editors use them properly.

::::::I'm sorry; this will look like more work, and I'm afraid that the latter question is going to look weird. But I wish to present four certain icons in a way that makes all of us happy!
::::::# Is it a ridiculous idea to change the names of the four move-gauge pictures to the following: <code>Move gauge 1-slot icon</code>, <code>Move gauge 3-slot icon</code>, etc.?
::::::# For each aforementioned picture, are you against placing a hyphen between the number and the word ''slot'' (example: '''1-slot''') due to those two forming one compound modifier that comes before the noun it describes, the word ''icon''?

:::::::Hmmm. I'm not really a fan of using the term "icon" for a screenshot of the move gauge. I wonder, maybe it would be easier to just use the sprite that's used to represent move gauge slots in the in-game menus? Then the template could just display the image multiple times to represent multiple move gauge slots. That would make it easier to update the template later if they ever decide to add five- or six-gauge moves. If you're good with that solution, I can upload that image.

:Yes, they do!

== SV Adventures ==

Regarding [[Special:Diff/3897097]], I meant to say that while most other media (games, anime, etc) have depicted only one academy, and the academies are mostly depicted as exclusive to each other, Adventures was the first where both were confirmed to exist within the same continuity.

:Since I can't read Japanese, I don't know how much is said about Naranja Academy other than the fact that Scarlet supposedly transferred from there, and I don't think the academy itself appeared. So I don't know if it's really been "confirmed to exist", and I'd rather play it safe in case there's a plot twist that Naranja Academy isn't the school she transferred from or something.

== Template:Masters ==

Since you work on Masters pages the most, I thought I'd bring this to you. I wrote up [[Special:Redirect/page/301484|documentation for the Masters Pokémon template]].

:Looks good overall. The suggestions I'd make are:
:* In the "ndex" and "ndex2" parameter notes, it'd make more sense to link to the category for Masters Pokémon models. The suffixes should all be the same, but there are fewer Masters models to click through, so it's easier to find the specific Pokémon you're looking for. It also wouldn't hurt to mention something about the fact that the numbers should be padded to 4 digits (we recently moved all the Masters models and icons to use 4-digit padding).
:* There are no unknown type Pokémon or moves in Masters, so "Unknown" doesn't need to be listed as an allowed value for parameters involving type.
:* An explanation of the "moveX" parameter would be helpful. I think it's currently only used for Gladion, but if somebody ever forms a sync pair with Arceus, this parameter would probably be used for them too.
:* For the "base" parameter, the inputs aren't entirely self-explanatory, so it'd be helpful to explain the difference between # and #EX, and that 6 is the same as 5EX.
:* Is "—" really a valid input for stats? I can't think of any instances where a Pokémon doesn't have a stat.
:* Can we make "yes" the intended input for "mega" instead of "1"? It's a more intuitive input to someone who's unfamiliar with code, and it'd be consistent with how moveX works.

::Feel free to edit the page while it is in my userspace as well. I actually used most of the existing docs as a starting point, so customizing this documentation with the Masters category is a GREAT idea. (I should probably also do that for the Unite documentations too.)
::* For the stats if the stats parameter is not enter, it displays "—". It should be removed though, so that the stats can be treated as necessary parameters.
::* I did search a lot for what the "moveX" meant, couldn't figure out how it exactly worked.
::* The "mega" parameter uses the #ifexpr keyword, so I think it requires a number. Either way, the template itself will be needed to be changed.

:::Swapped the "mega" parameter to use #ifeq instead of #ifexpr, so now "yes" and "1" are equally acceptable parameters. I've updated the documentation accordingly (along with those other wording tweaks I mentioned earlier), so I think it's good to be mainspaced. The default parameter being "—" is just so the template page displays nicely, same reason why the default name is "Pikachu", the type is "Electric", and so on.

It's not a big deal since it's highly unlikely anyone would actually be using that particular template right now, but for the record, you generally shouldn't update the TemplateData before the template has been updated. It could have taken me a while to see your message, or I could have decided not to make the change, for example. Removing the size parameter for infoboxes already on pages would be helpful, so if we ever decide to change the default size in the future, it can be easily applied to all pages.

== Masters EX moves ==

Good job with all those edits on move articles. Are you also adding missing moves to them as you go? I try to help out on any Masters-related thing I happen to come across. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 20:10, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
:Yes, I'm working through all the moves on the list of moves in Masters in alphabetical order to make sure the individual move pages match it, including adding moves that are missing. There's a bunch of Masters-related formatting stuff that I've been working on lately, and if you want to help with any of them, that'd be great!
:* We recently moved all the Masters Pokémon images to use four-digit padding. The old filenames are preserved as redirects so that previous revisions of pages don't break completely, but since four-digit numbers are the new standard, we need to change all those images to link to the current name. (I've seen you doing some of this on pages that use the PairDex template, and that's super helpful!)
:* We have a new template, {{template|sync}}, that's used for linking directly to a specific Pokémon section on a character's page. The documentation explains how to use it, if you're unsure. This template can replace all instances of a Trainer and Pokémon being linked to individually, such as in the tables on the [[sync move]] page, as well as being a cleaner way to write direct links, such as what I did on the [[story event]] page.
:* I recently moved the [[sygna suit]] page to match its in-game capitalization, and there's still a lot of pages that need to be relinked so they're not linking to the redirect. In particular, there's a ton of quotes pages that still need relinking.
:* Not specifically Masters-related, but we're trying to move away from using tooltips as much as possible, since they're unusable on mobile. Information in tooltips should generally be removed (if it's superfluous) or moved somewhere else. (I have not removed the tooltips used in availability sections yet because I haven't been able to figure out a good way to indicate when a banner is paid-gem-only or to indicate when a character is battling in a different outfit than usual.)
:* Speaking of availability sections, at Tiddlywinks' suggestion, we're moving availability (how/when a sync pair can be obtained) into the section for that sync pair, between the Pokémon's infobox and moves. The former availability section is being renamed "appearances". Also on sync pair pages, we've made some tweaks to {{template|Masters}} so that an alternate form (such as a Mega Evolution) can be displayed inside the infobox, rather than having its own section underneath. In addition, the article that the Pokémon name links to can now be overridden, so a Trainer's Pokémon page can be linked to instead of the generic species page. Lastly, I've started renaming the "Other" section to "Other Pokémon", so it's a little more clear when reading the table of contents what that section is about.
:It's a lot, so obviously I don't expect you to help with all of it... But if you can make some of these changes while you're editing a page for some other reason, that'd be a big help <3 [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 21:23, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
::Good to hear. Just wanted to make sure.
::* Yeah, notice the four-digit thing, which honestly didn't come as a surprise, after it has already been out to use elsewhere on the site. As soon as Paldea Pokémon started appearing in Masters EX, it was pretty much inevitable. As you've mentioned, I've been adding this new format to PairDex lists, usually going systematically with one region at a time.
::* Noticed the new "sync" template being used too, and have already tried it out at least once. Took me about a literal minute for me to get over the fact that this template removes links to individual Pokémon articles of such exist, but that was over quickly, and I'm more than fine with using this template as well.
::* Yeah, noticed the multitude of Sygna Suit redirect links that still need fixing. A daunting task, but we should get it done little by little.
::* As a user who mainly relies on a mobile device, I can completely understand.
::* Also noticed the relocation of the availability sections, which is perfectly fine by me, and have helped to move it on a couple pages already. And the "Other" to "Other Pokémon" change is perfectly fine by me too.
::So overall, yeah, I'm familiar with all these changes, as well as the sheet multitude of pages that must be edited to fully put them in effect, but I'm more than ready to help whenever and wherever I can. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 22:29, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

== Holiday sync pairs ==

Around last Christmas, I figured that since the holiday sync pairs are released around Christmas time, they'd fit right in on Bulbapedia's Christmas article. So I added them there. During the last few days, I've started to think if the word "Holiday" could be linked to "Christmas" whenever used in reference to a holiday sync pair, like on the sync pair list, for example. I just wanted to ask what you think of the idea before I started doing it. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 18:09, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
:I completely forgot we even had a Christmas article, lol. I think it's fine to put the list of holiday sync pairs there, but I don't know about linking to it every time "Holiday" is mentioned, since the in-universe holiday isn't really named. It'd make more sense if all the seasonal pairs linked to the seasonal event page, which is currently not a page and just a section on the story event page. It'd need to be made into a full page before we start linking to it. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 19:47, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
::Your points make sense. I'll just leave things as they are (to be specific, I only intended to mention it at the sync pair list and the intro of every character article that has a holiday sync pair). --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 21:15, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

== Masters EX topics ==

Creating a genetic header to talk about Masters EX things without always having to create a new header. My first idea is something in honestly surprised hadn't crossed my mind until just now. For every Masters EX character, their core series counterpart's page lists what sync pairs they can form, while the list matches the color of their first sync pair's type. However, while this is fine for type expert sync pairs, what about sync pairs who are not type specialists? Should their list colors match the general color theme of their article instead of the type of their sync pair? And if a type expert sync pair's primary sync pair's type doesn't match their specialty type, should it be changed to match their specialty type instead? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 09:41, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
:After taking a look at a few articles of non-type specialists, it seems like all tables on their pages have the same color scheme except the TCG tables (which use TCG colors), tables for individual Pokémon (which use that Pokémon's type), and the Masters tables. With that in mind, I feel like it'd make the most sense for the Masters tables' color scheme to match the color scheme of the whole page, unless the character only forms one sync pair, in which case it should be treated like an individual Pokémon's table and have a color scheme matching the sync pair's type. This would apply to both non-type specialists and type specialists. So in the case of type specialists whose primary sync pair doesn't match their specialty type, it'd be changed to match their specialty type if they form multiple sync pairs (i.e. Raihan) and stay as the sync pair's type if they only form one sync pair (i.e. Hala). That's my suggestion, but as always you're welcome to disagree. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 17:45, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
::Sounds good to me. I'll get to it, then. And speaking of Hala, he's the only type specialist in Masters EX who doesn't form a sync pair with a Pokémon me matching his specialty type, so I'm not sure how we should deal with him. With everything else, I agree with you completely. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 21:53, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
:::Like I said, since he only forms one sync pair, I think it makes sense to keep using the Ice color for his table.

:::::::::That was a really big EX role and sync grid expansion drop we got yesterday, so good job adding them all. I'd add the sync grid expansions to the sync grid article, but I don't really know how to distinguish horizontal and vertical expansions from each other based on just the added content. And another thing: I'm wondering if the two Poké Kids from the newest story event are actually Petey and Eve. Their Pokémon's genders match, at least, and I recall you adding an earlier Poké Kid appearance under their names. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 08:47, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
::::::::::Oh, that wasn't me. I've been super busy with work and other irl stuff, so I've barely had time to keep up with all the new/rerunning events... I haven't even watched the event story yet, just skipped through it so I could unlock all the battles. So I'm not sure what kids you're referring to, I'll get back to you on that once I've done the event story. It's really easy to tell the difference between horizontal and vertical grid expansions, though - vertical grid expansions are for Poké Fairs only, and they include tiles that are unlocked at move level 4 or 5. Horizontal grid expansions can be for anyone, and they include tiles that can be unlocked at move level 1. All the recent grid expansions were vertical expansions. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 23:51, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::::Update, I've done the event story. My previous rule of thumb has been that, like you said, if they have the exact same partner Pokémon, it's meant to be the playable character and not just a generic background NPC. However, with the Poké Kids specifically, I feel like it makes sense that character who dresses up like Eevee to use an Eevee, and a character who dresses up like Pikachu to wear a Pikachu. I've been a little hesitant to say that any female Poké Kid with a male Eevee is Eve because male is typically the "default" appearance; the Eevee Egg event featured battles against a female Poké Kid with a male Eevee who was not Eve, for example. However, a male Poké Kid with a female Pikachu involves a deliberate change to the "default" appearance, so I'm more inclined to think it's meant to be Petey specifically. That's why I counted the male Poké Kid with a female Pikachu who appeared in this year's AFD event as an appearance for Petey, while I haven't counted the female Poké Kid with a male Eevee who appears in Penny's sync pair story as an appearance for Eve. In the case of Rika's event, the male Poké Kid seems pretty likely to be Petey, and it'd be silly for the male Poké Kid to be Petey and the female one is just a generic kid, so I'm OK counting them both (and I plan to add the quotes to their respective quote pages). Now that I'm saying it out loud, though, I feel like maybe I'm being a little too cautious, and I should just give Eve the appearances for Penny's sync pair story and the AFD event too... [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 04:24, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
::::::::::::Thanks. I'll add their appearance from Rika's event to their pages, and I'm personally leaning on adding the other events Eve appeared in to her page too. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 08:12, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::::::After sleeping on it, yeah, I think I'm good with counting the Poké Kid in Penny's sync pair story as Eve—the biggest reason I didn't add it at the time was because Eve hadn't been officially released yet, but they did the same thing with Grusha (giving him a cameo in an event prior to his official debut) so it'd make sense for this to be the same situation. I don't think I wanna count the AFD event as an Eve appearance, though, since the female Poké Kid who appears in that event isn't shown with a partner Pokémon.

== Assistance with the Hoenn League Page ==

Hello Storm Aurora. A little over a week ago, you showed approval for a change I proposed on the [[Pokémon League (Hoenn)]] page. I completed the change, and I haven't received any reversions. However, there is one touch that I have had two people revert without any dialogue, and I was wondering if you could weigh in on the talk page. I haven't reverted it back again since I don't want to start an editing war, but I definitely do want some authority to decide which way makes more sense. Essentially, I have the trainer names listed in bolded, enlarged text so that the contents table isn't loaded with 20 pointless links. If you could take a look at the page and see which way you think is better for navigation, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

::Thank you again for your resolution! That seemed like the perfect compromise, and I think both Finnish and I can both be happy with how the page looks now. I also suggested the same rearrangement on the [[Pokémon League (Sinnoh)]] page since DPPtBDSP all crowd up each E4 member in the same way as RSEORAS, so I'll use your decision as a precedent if it goes through on that talk page as well.

== Move page ==

Hello! I hope I'm not being very pushy about this subject, but I just want to know if the page "Multi-strike move" is good to be moved at this point. And if not, could you explain what are the requirements for a move, please? [[User:Shinka|Shinka]] ([[User talk:Shinka|talk]]) 17:50, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
:There have been no objections from staff since I last poked about it when you messaged me earlier this week, so the move should be good to go. [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 18:30, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

== Edit request ==

Earlier this year, you edited the {{template|Trainerentry}} template to make sure the images follow the renamed Trainer class links too, which was a big help. In regards to the same template, I was wondering if you could turn "Team Magma Grunts" and "Team Aqua Grunts" into links that lead directly to their respective Grunt pages from this template, since it'd allow the Grunt Horde Battles in ORAS to be correctly labeled as "Team Aqua/Magma Grunts", like these Horde Trainers as listed as in-game, instead of the current format of "Team Aqua/Magma Grunt ×5"? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 02:01, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
:I'd be happy to help, but I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you want me to do. The names and images already link directly to the Trainer class pages for the Aqua/Magma Grunt Horde Battles. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 06:06, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
::My bad for being unclear. So, when a regular Grunt is challenged, the on-screen text reads "You are challenged by Team Magma/Aqua Grunt!" However, when challenging a horde of them, the message instead reads "You are challenged by Team Magma/Aqua Grunt'''s'''!", with an "s" at the end.

== Egg Magikarp's Trivia ==

I'm so sorry for only recently discovering your concerns about the following piece of trivia about Magikarp: <code>Magikarp's evolutionary family is the only one be exclusively obtainable in a Daily Battle event (instead of an Egg event)</code>! Should I respond to that here to prevent necroposting—or do so in the "discussion" tab of the article "Egg Pokémon (Masters)" to give your topic proper progression? -Very humbly, [[User:Solemn Mac|Solemn Mac]] ([[User talk:Solemn Mac|talk]]) 03:52, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
:Oh, I completely forgot about that talk page discussion! It's obviously not something that was weighing heavily on my mind, lol. For the sake of keeping things organized when we look back at it in the future, let's go ahead and resume the conversation on the talk page. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 06:28, 27 September 2024 (UTC)

== Bulletin Board ==

Since you were the one that added it, I'm bringing this to you. The task you added to the Bulletin Board, the one for [[Expert (Trainer class)]] was technically already complete, there was only the problem with the way the file was added. The file was missing the .png. The Bulletin Board talk page is probably better for this actually but I'm bringing this up so other people don't accidentally upload duplicate files or the like. [[User:Handium|The Cress Fan, Handium]] ([[User talk:Handium|talk]]) 21:14, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
:Gotcha, thanks for letting me know! I'll replace it with something else. Thanks so much for your work on completing Bulletin Board tasks, by the way! [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 21:16, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

== Advice about Numbers ==

I'm sorry! Your advice is requested! I tried to tell someone that certain numbers should get spelled out when adding moves of Pokémon Masters EX, but I'm afraid I forgot to specify which numbers get that treatment and implied that all should get spelled out. I'm sadly not allowed to edit that message of mine, so it's stuck being wrong. What should I do to prevent further confusion? -Fully Respectfully, [[User:Solemn Mac|Solemn Mac]] ([[User talk:Solemn Mac|talk]]) 21:19, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
:If you left a talk page message and you want to revise or add something to it, you can just indent your additional comment like you would if you were responding to someone else. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 23:10, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
::Like this! [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 23:11, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Basically, I think we should mention Mythical Pokemon (including Darkrai) are necessary to get shiny Enamorus on Enamorus's own page. [[User:ButSmeargleCan'tUseTheMove|ButSmeargleCan'tUseTheMove]] disagrees. I don't think either of us will change our minds, am I'm not sure what else to do, so I'm asking any staff I can find.

== Lt Surge trivia ==

Hello. I need some explanation as to why my trivia is not notable. The fact he doesn't have any gen 5 Pokémon is ironic and doesn't go along with the supposition of this BW2 NPC. He could've owned an Eelektross or another gen 5 Pokémon for his team to go along with this supposition, but he doesn't, and I wanted to point that out. -- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 14:48, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

:Thank you for reaching out for clarification! My primary reason for thinking it wasn't notable was because Lt. Surge was introduced in Gen I and has only appeared in one core series game that Gen V Pokémon appear, so it's not surprising that he wouldn't use any Gen V Pokémon. However, you make a fair point that it's ironic the game in which he could have used Gen V Pokémon is the game in which the NPC says this. I went back and looked at the NPC's dialogue, though, and what he says is "Lt. Surge! He used to be a soldier and acts as the Gym Leader of Vermillion City. Is he from the Unova region?" Given that it's just a rhetorical question, I don't think it's that notable if his team is or isn't from Unova. [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 15:46, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

::Just because he is a Kanto Gym Leader doesn't mean he can't use any gen 5 Pokémon, for example, we see Misty use a Jellicent, Sabrina use a Sigiliph, and Giovanni a Krookodile in their Type Expert/World Leaders Tournament teams. All Kanto Gym Leaders in the PWT use one or two gen 3, 4 or 5 Pokémon which do not evolve from (thus aren't related to) any gen 1 or gen 2 Pokémon in at least one format... except for Lt Surge, making this an additional trivia to add. I'm counting gen 2 Pokémon due to from the fact those Gym Leaders appeared in gen 2 games as well, originally. Based on the fact some other Gym Leaders do that, and on that NPC's supposition, I expect Lt Surge's team to have at least one gen 5 Pokémon as well in one team to go along with this supposition, but he doesn't. -- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 05:53, 25 May 2025 (UTC)

'''Lt. Surge''' (Japanese: '''マチス''' ''Matisse''<ref>[https://bandai-a.akamaihd.net/bc/images/shop_top_candytoy/20230126_pokemonscaleworld_01.jpg "Matisse & Rarecoil & Eleboo"] [https://www.bandai.co.jp/candy/pokemonscaleworld/ Pokémon Scale World] figurine catalog image</ref>) is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Vermilion City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Vermilion Gym]]. He hands out the {{Badge|Thunder}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him in {{pkmn|battle}}. He [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the core series games==
Lt. Surge is known as the "Lightning Lieutenant". Apparently, he is or was a {{wp|soldier}} who fought in at least one war, during which Electric-type Pokémon saved his life. As a member of the {{wp|United States Army|army}}, Surge was a strict {{wp|Commanding officer|CO}}, and was rather cautious. He was a pilot as well, and used Electric-type Pokémon to power his planes, a practice that in at least one occasion saved his life. Also, Surge saved the life of one of the Trainers in his Gym who was in the army at the same time. A little paranoid, Lt. Surge installed a series of traps in the Gym. He takes a liking to Trainers with a lot of guts.

In addition to the Thunder Badge, Lt. Surge gives out [[TM24]]{{sup/1|RBY}}/[[TM36]]{{sup/7|PE}} ({{m|Thunderbolt}}) in the [[Generation I]] games and [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]. In {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed, LeafGreen,|s}} {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold, and SoulSilver|s}} he gives out {{TM|34|Shock Wave}}. In {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, he doesn't give out a [[TM]]. Also, in HeartGold and SoulSilver, he trades a foreign {{p|Pikachu}} with the {{player}} for another Pikachu. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, in addition to the Thunder Badge and the reward TM, he also gives the player his [[Autograph]] as a reward for defeating him.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, he will be outside of the Power Plant between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. This only occurs after the player has captured, not defeated, {{p|Zapdos}}. If the player defeated Zapdos, they will need to battle the Elite Four again for Zapdos to reappear. If the player arrives walking with a Pikachu, he will happily give his Pokégear number out, and if called on Friday morning, will be at the Fighting Dojo for a rematch. After the player gets his Pokégear number, he will be at the [[Magnet Train]] station in [[Saffron City]]. There he'll offer to trade his French (English in non-English-language versions) Pikachu, nicknamed '''Volty''', for the player's Pikachu that he saw at the Power Plant (though it need not be the same one). She will be at the same level as the Pikachu traded, will know the moves appropriate for that level, and be holding a [[Yellow Shard]].

In {{B2W2}}, Lt. Surge participates in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]]. He and the other Gym Leaders of [[Kanto]] participate in the [[Kanto Leaders Tournament]], while also participating in the [[Type Expert Tournament|Type Expert]] and [[World Leaders Tournament]]s with the Gym Leaders from Kanto, [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], and [[Unova]].

[[File:Lt Surge anime.png|left|thumb|220px|Lt. Surge in {{aniseries|OS}}]]
==== History ====
====={{aniseries|OS}}=====
Lt. Surge appeared in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]''. He was quick to show off his powerful {{TP|Lt. Surge|Raichu}} upon {{Ash}}'s arrival at the [[Vermilion Gym]]. Lt. Surge then laughed at the sight of {{AP|Pikachu}} and mocked him for his apparent weakness, though he eventually agreed to battle Ash. Pikachu was quickly overwhelmed and defeated by Raichu's onslaught of attacks.

After Pikachu recovered at the local [[Pokémon Center]], Ash had a [[rematch]] with Lt. Surge. When Pikachu was able to use his {{m|Agility}} to evade Raichu's attacks, Lt. Surge had Raichu use {{m|Thunderbolt}} to destroy the Gym's lights and glass windows. However, Pikachu didn't sustain any damage after he grounded himself with his tail, while Raichu exhausted all of its electrical power. Pikachu then used the opportunity to defeat Raichu, earning Ash his third Badge, the {{Badge|Thunder}}.

====={{aniseries|DP}}=====
He reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]''.
====={{aniseries|JN}}=====
In ''[[JN018|Destination: Coronation!]]'', it was revealed that Surge left the Gym in the care of [[Visquez]] and left on his own journey to become a better Electric-type Trainer. It was also revealed that he trained the Raichu that Visquez owns, and Ash's fame had grown amongst the Trainers at the Gym.

====Character====
[[File:Lt Surge JN.png|thumb|250px|Lt. Surge in {{aniseries|JN}}]]
An intimidating person, Lt. Surge surrounds himself with other tough-looking {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. He is arrogant, loud, and crude; and refers to all challengers as "babies" until they manage to defeat him. Lt. Surge generally looks down on unevolved Pokémon, preferring to [[Evolution|evolve]] them as soon as possible. He also seems to be an extremely brutal battler, as nearly every Trainer that faced him ended up with their Pokémon being seriously injured.

In spite of his preference for evolved Pokémon, Lt. Surge does not take into account any advantages an unevolved Pokémon may have over their evolved forms. Though he managed to defeat {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} once with pure power, Pikachu was able to use speed-altering moves like {{m|Agility}}, which Raichu couldn't learn, to outrun and defeat it. Surge and Raichu came to respect Ash and Pikachu's tenacity after this defeat, and, as shown in ''[[JN018|Destination: Coronation!]]'', tells his Gym Trainers stories about their rematch to this day.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Lt. Surge Sabrina Adventures.png|right|200px|thumb|Lt. Surge and his Raichu with Sabrina and her Mr. Mime]]
====History====
====={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}=====
Lt. Surge is one of the evil sub-leaders of [[Team Rocket]]. In his debut chapter, ''[[PS010|Danger: High Voltorb]]'', he used the [[S.S. Anne]] in Vermilion City to transport captured Pokémon illegally. He tried to kill {{adv|Red}}, but was bested after Red's {{p|Poliwhirl}} evolved into [[Poli|Poliwrath]].

Lt. Surge captured {{p|Zapdos}} at [[Kanto Power Plant|the abandoned Power Plant]] under {{adv|Giovanni}}'s orders. He then fought Red at Silph Co. with an Electrode bazooka and Magneton shield all powered by his newly caught Zapdos. He also had an electrocution suit on so he couldn't be shocked by Zapdos' power. Red waits for him to make Zapdos use its full power and makes [[Saur]] cut up the power cords to his machines and his suit so he gets electrocuted instead. However, he, along with the rest of Team Rocket, was dispersed when the [[Legendary birds (Adventures)#Thu-Fi-Zer|chimera]] made from the [[legendary Pokémon]] was defeated by Red, {{adv|Blue}}, and {{adv|Green}} in [[Saffron City]].

====={{MangaArc|Yellow}}=====
Some time later, the [[Elite Four]] tried to destroy humanity. Team Rocket's admins joined up with {{adv|Blue}}, {{adv|Green}} and {{adv|Yellow}} to stop them. During the battle against the [[Elite Four]] on [[Cerise Island]], Lt. Surge was paired with {{adv|Red}} according to [[Sabrina]]'s [[Spoons of Destiny]]. However, with Red absent due to injuries, Lt. Surge had to choose {{adv|Bill}} as his partner instead, whose Spoon had not bent due to the fact that he was accompanying Green and Yellow, thus not intending to battle in the first place. When Red arrived the moment that Bill and Lt. Surge were about to lose, Lt. Surge's spoon bent, revealing Red as his true partner. Red then resumed his battle with Bruno. When it finished, Lt. Surge became fed up and pushed Bill into the acidic waters below, though Bill was saved by Red.

====={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}=====
In [[Johto]], Lt. Surge owned and captained the new luxury liner, [[S.S. Aqua]]. He was first seen driving out of the Union Cave in a submarine. His Magnemite accidentally captured Crystal, who later freed his submarine by capturing the Corsola that were keeping it stuck. He repaid her by taking her to [[Olivine City]] free of charge. He then went to [[Mahogany Town]] to investigate the rise of Team Rocket under a different leader, since Koga and Giovanni disappeared and Sabrina was busy healing her wounds. He confronted the [[Masked Man]], but lost and barely managed to escape with his life. He then stumbled upon [[Silver's Gyarados]] while exploring the Lake of Rage.

He is then led to several items of Gold and Silver's including one of their Pokédexes and goes to Morty so he can use them to locate the lost boys, who tells him that they are at the Whirl Islands. He is able to return their stuff and watches the Johto Pokédex holders battle against {{DL|Tower duo (Adventures)|Lugia}} before a message is sent to him stating that he is being summoned to a Gym Leader tournament at [[Indigo Plateau]] that would pit the Kanto Gym Leaders against the Johto Gym Leaders. Lt. Surge is fatefully pitted against Morty for the competition, but their match ends in a draw due to Morty's {{p|Misdreavus}} using {{m|Destiny Bond}} just as his {{p|Magnemite}} beats it. Soon, the [[Masked Man]] struck. Using his latest recruitment, {{p|Raikou}}, Lt. Surge separated the two coaches of the Magnet Train and returned it to Indigo Plateau before challenging the Masked Man (along with [[Misty]] and [[Blaine]]) and losing to him. The excess electricity fed to the Magnet Train proved useful later on.

====Character====
Lt. Surge prefers to travel by sea, as he captains two ships and drives a submarine. He can also fly through the air by having four of his {{p|Magneton}} create an energy platform for him to ride on.

In battle, Lt. Surge generally prefers to use his {{p|Electabuzz}} to zap anything that gets in his way. He also uses other Electric-type Pokémon to provide distractions with {{m|Selfdestruct}}.

Anne]], where Surge sent him out to fight against {{adv|Red}} and his [[Poli|Poliwhirl]]. He seemingly had the upper hand until the {{type|Water}} Pokémon evolved into a {{p|Poliwrath}} after being pushed off the side of the ship, which resulted in Red defeating Surge and Electabuzz. He was used to fight against Red again during the battle at [[Silph Co.]]. Two years later, Electabuzz was used in the battle of [[Cerise Island]], where he helped battle [[Bruno]], but was not able to damage his Pokémon due to their evasiveness. During the Gym Leader Tournament in [[Johto]], he fought against [[Morty]]'s {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Misdreavus}}, who almost defeated him before Surge switched him with {{p|Magnemite}}.

They also later proved handy when their combined Selfdestruct attacks aided in his narrow escape from the [[Masked Man]].

===Pokémon Pocket Monsters===
[[File:Lt Surge PM.png|thumb|220px|Lt. Surge in Pokémon Pocket Monsters]]
Lt. Surge first appears in ''[[PM006|The Big Activity In The Mountains And The Oceans!!]]'', where he is seen on the [[S.S. Anne]].

He shouts out a speech to the {{tc|fisherman|fishermen}} who showed no interest and threw rocks at him, due to the fact that he was responsible for the theft of a whole bunch of {{type|Water}} Pokémon. {{PPM|Red}} goes onboard and meets him. While on board, Red challenges him to a Pokémon battle with Lt. Surge using {{p|Voltorb}}. Red pits {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} against the Poké Ball-shaped object. Voltorb attacks Clefairy but Clefairy uses a deflector to negate the attack. During the battle, the fisherman boo him whenever he got the upperhand.

In the middle of the battle, Voltorb evolves into an {{p|Electrode}} and {{TP|Red|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)}} teams up with Clefairy to defeat the Electrode. Electrode is defeated when Clefairy fires a beam at it. The Electrode gets sent to one of the cannons which caused an explosion which destroyed the ship. Lt. Surge becomes upset when a whole bunch of his Water-type Pokémon become free.

Unlike other media, Lt. Surge has more Pokémon that is not the type he specializes in.

==In the TFG==
{{TFG ID|Unnamed Third Set|Lt. Surge|40}} was slated to be released as a {{TFG|Trainer figure}} in the {{TFG|Unnamed Third Set}} of the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]].

==Trivia==
[[File:Lt Surge Gym anime.png|thumb|220px|Lt. Surge's height in {{aniseries|OS}}]]
* Lt. Surge's Japanese [[Gym Leader]] title is {{tt|ライトニングタフガイ|Lightning Tough Guy}}. Prior to [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], his title was {{tt|イナズマ　アメリカン！|Lightning American!}}.
* In the Japanese, French, German, and Chinese versions, Surge's rank is {{wp|Major}}. In the English, Spanish, and Italian versions, his rank is Lieutenant.
* Lt. Surge uses several English phrases, such as "Goddamn", in the Japanese {{pkmn|animation}} and {{pkmn|games}}.
* The battle against Lt. Surge in {{game|Yellow}} is the only time a [[Gym Leader]] will only use one opposing Pokémon. This is due to the games mimicking the {{pkmn|animated series}}.
* In [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], Lt. Surge has a Raichu that knows {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Reversal}}. It is [[Game move errors|impossible]] to obtain such a Raichu in the games, as Surf is an {{pkmn2|event}} move for {{p|Pikachu}} while Reversal is an [[Egg Move]].
* As in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Lt. Surge's [[Trainer ID number]] is 33038.
* In the [[Pokémon World Tournament]], the man who describes all of the World Leaders questions if Lt. Surge is from [[Unova]]. This is probably because Lt. Surge was originally stated to be from America, and the Unova region is based on New York City.
** It is also mentioned in Unova's history that they have been at war, which Lt. Surge also mentions in the [[Generation I]] games and [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|their remakes]].
** Although it is supposed that Lt. Surge comes from Unova, none of his teams include any [[Generation V]] Pokémon.
* In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], the player has an autograph in [[Player's house|their room]] identical to [[Autograph|the one]] that Lt. Surge gives to the player in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. In addition, the background of the autograph features the Thunder Badge, implying that it is from Lt. Surge as well.
* In the [[Chuang Yi]] translation of [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]], he is called "Matisse".
* In {{aniseries|PTS}}, Lt. Surge is depicted as being among the tallest human characters, being at least twice {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}}'s height.

==In animation==
As an entity, Team Flare debuted in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]'', including its five scientists, [[Celosia]], [[Mable]], [[Aliana]], [[Bryony]], and [[Xerosic]]. However, [[Lysandre]] first appeared in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'' as a mysterious benefactor assisting [[Alain]] on his quest in exchange for information on [[Mega Evolution]]. Lysandre and Team Flare eventually went on to become the main antagonists of the ''XY & Z'' arc of ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
The Team Flare Scientist appeared early on in the {{MangaArc|X & Y}}, observing [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}}'s battle in [[Vaniville Town]] and attempting to steal {{adv|X}}'s [[Mega Ring]]. [[Lysandre]] debuted soon after, observing a video of the aforementioned battle at [[Professor Sycamore]]'s laboratory. Team Flare as a whole served as the major antagonists of the chapter.

'''Giovanni''' (Japanese: '''サカキ''' ''Sakaki'') is the head of [[Team Rocket]], who serves as the secretive [[Gym Leader]] of [[Viridian City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Viridian Gym]], in [[Generation I]], {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and {{LGPE}}. He hands out the {{Badge|Earth}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him in {{pkmn|battle}}. As a Gym Leader, he [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but his master plan includes collecting rare Pokémon of all [[type]]s. After he disbands Team Rocket and abandons his Gym, his role as the Viridian Gym Leader is taken over by {{ga|Blue}}. In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], he makes a return appearance as the leader of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]]. He is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es '''Boss'''{{sup/3|FRLG}}/'''Rocket Boss'''{{sup/4|HGSS}}/'''Team Rocket Boss'''{{sup/7|PE}} (Japanese: '''ロケットだんボス''' ''Team Rocket Boss'') and '''Team Rainbow Rocket''' (Japanese: '''{{j|Rロケットだん}}''' ''Team R Rocket'').

==Terminology==
In the English version of [[Pokémon Stadium]], his name is misspelled "'''Giovani'''" (with one n) to fit the game's seven-character limit for Trainer names. His name is correctly written as '''Giovanni''' in the ''[[Pokémon Stadium: Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]''.

In the Japanese version of the {{ga|Trainer Card}} from the [[Generation I]] games, he is unidentified and his name is written as '''???''', as opposed to other Gym Leaders who have their names written on the Trainer Card. However, the English version of the Generation I Trainer Card does not have any names of Gym Leaders. Giovanni appears as a silhouette in both language versions.

He is also unidentified and has his name is written as '''???''' on the list of Gym Leaders seen in Japanese and English manuals of the Generation I games and the English manual of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, even though he is identified normally in the Japanese manual of FireRed and LeafGreen.

==In the core series games==
===Character profile===
Giovanni is the primary antagonist of the games taking place in Kanto.

In the [[Generation I|first games]] Giovanni appeared in, he served a dual role: one that was well known to the residents of Kanto, and one that was more secret. He was first shown as the leader of the villainous [[Team Rocket]], the first of many [[Villainous team|criminal organizations]] to grace the Pokémon games. After the {{player}} defeated him and his team of Grunts at [[Silph Co.]], Giovanni fled to a hideout that the player is unaware of. Once the player returned to Viridian City, one of the major plot twists of these games revealed that Giovanni, in addition to his role as a criminal, was the final Gym Leader to be fought before the [[Elite Four]]—albeit one without a formal title. Here, he specializes in the {{t|Ground}} type. Once defeated, he disbanded Team Rocket and left the player with the {{Badge|Earth}} and {{TM|27|Fissure}}. If talked to again, he then vanishes and is not seen again for the rest of the game.

Giovanni's role in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} is much the same; the one difference is that defeating him in the Gym battle will earn the player {{TM|26|Earthquake}}, instead of TM27 (Fissure). He also implies that he intends to return to power one day rather than being moved to dedicate his life to the study of Pokémon. There is a side-plot in the [[Sevii Islands]] that revolves around Giovanni; a group of Team Rocket members are trying to continue the aims of Team Rocket, but they abandon this when they realize that their leader has been defeated once and for all.

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], Giovanni's story is slightly expanded from his first appearance. During his first appearance, he is seen talking with [[Archer]] and giving him the permission to proceed with the plan to take over Silph Co. After being defeated for the first time, he gives the player the [[Silph Scope]] as a token of apology for mocking them, as opposed to just leaving the device behind before leaving, like in previous games. At the Silph Co., a part of his conversation with the Silph Co. President is shown, with Giovanni demanding him to hand over the [[Master Ball]] like they had previously agreed. In the Gym battle, Giovanni's reward TM once again contains Earthquake, although now, it's [[TM41]], instead of TM26.

In {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, a group of Team Rocket members tries to relaunch the old team. They take over [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], and broadcast a radio announcement intended for Giovanni. Only in HeartGold and SoulSilver is it revealed that Giovanni does hear the broadcast, from his hideout in [[Tohjo Falls]] - an event in the remakes involving a [[Time travel|time-traveling]] {{p|Celebi}} allows {{ga|Ethan}} and {{ga|Lyra}} to travel back in time and defeat Giovanni at the same time the rest of Team Rocket is being defeated at the Radio Tower. Upon defeat, he will begin ranting about how he keeps losing to children and, like before, Giovanni will leave the room and disappear. Later, in Kanto, it is revealed that {{ga|Blue}} took over the Viridian Gym after his disappearance.

The Celebi event also reveals some of Giovanni's background from the three years between Generation I/III and Generation II/IV. While it was mentioned by {{tc|Scientist}} [[Gideon]] in FireRed and LeafGreen that Giovanni has a son with red hair, the son's identity wasn't revealed until the time travel event in HeartGold and SoulSilver. As many fans speculated (and as was mentioned in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga series), this son is the [[rival]] of the Johto player character, {{ga|Silver}}. Much of Silver's personality is a result of the treatment he received from Giovanni, which includes abandonment. Like many of Giovanni's other actions throughout the games, this reflects on his selfishness.

Giovanni reappears in {{2v2|Black|White|2}} in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]], replacing Blue, who instead participates in the [[Champions Tournament]]. Giovanni returns to using Ground types exclusively. While the announcer usually introduces Gym Leaders by their title, Giovanni, who does not have a title, is introduced as "The Self-Proclaimed Strongest Trainer" (Japanese: '''さいきょうのトレーナーとなのる''' ''Self-Proclaimed Strongest Trainer'').

An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] Giovanni appears in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}'s [[Episode RR]] post-game story as the Boss of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]]. This version of Giovanni came from a universe where Team Rocket succeeded in taking over the world. He is first seen during the [[Aether Foundation]]'s broadcast from [[Aether Paradise]], where he seizes control of the organization from [[Lusamine]]. He uses an [[Ultra Wormhole]] to transform her mansion into [[Team Rocket's Castle]], fortifies himself inside it, and stations versions of [[Archie]], [[Maxie]], [[Cyrus]], [[Lysandre]], and [[Ghetsis]] from other worlds as his guards, along with an army of {{tc|Team Rainbow Rocket Grunt}}s. After battling through his army, the player and [[Lillie]] find Giovanni holding an unconscious Lusamine inside his control center deep within the castle. He introduces himself and reveals that he plans to create an army of [[Ultra Beast]]s in order to conquer all worlds. For that purpose, he needs the Aether Foundation's resources, and intends to brainwash Lusamine into serving him. Feeling nostalgic that a child would challenge him, Giovanni battles the player with a [[party]] that includes a {{p|Mewtwo}} capable of [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]], and is ultimately defeated. Accepting his loss, Giovanni abandons his plans for the Aether Foundation but swears that Team Rainbow Rocket will never fall. He leaves as [[Colress]] begins working to revert Team Rocket's Castle back into Lusamine's mansion, and is last seen reflecting on what world he should target for his schemes next before warping away.

After Episode RR has started, [[Sophocles]] creates a battle program based on Giovanni that appears as a boss in the [[Battle Agency]] within [[Festival Plaza]]. Giovanni is also implied to have stopped by at the [[Alola Photo Club]] to leave villainous team-based stickers for the player to use after he was defeated by them.

===Appearance===
In most of the games he appears in, Giovanni is depicted as a tall, middle-aged man. He has very short, flat, dark hair and small dark eyes. He wears a long sleeved black shirt with a large V neck that shows off a white undershirt, black slightly baggy trousers, and black shoes. On the left side of his shirt is the red Team Rocket logo.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} and {{B2W2}}, he wears a black trench coat with a red triangular symbol on it instead of his usual black shirt. He also wears a black fedora hat.

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], he looks the same as his normal appearance, with the only difference being that his undershirt is red instead of white.

His alternate universe self in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} looks the same as his original counterpart, with the only difference being that the Team Rocket logo on his shirt being changed into the rainbow-colored Team Rainbow Rocket logo.

Giovanni appeared in ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]''. {{OBP|Red|Origins}} first recalled meeting him at the [[Team Rocket Hideout|Rocket Hideout]]. They later encountered again at [[Silph Co.]] after Team Rocket had taken over the building. Seeing Red's arrogant and determined attitude to stop Team Rocket every time, Giovanni decided to put him in his place, and battled [[Red's Charizard]] with his {{p|Nidoqueen}}, winning easily before escaping with a helicopter, declaring that Red could never understand what he was hoping to achieve.
[[File:Young Giovanni PO.png|thumb|left|250px|Giovanni as a child]]
Giovanni appeared once more as the Viridian Gym Leader. Giovanni accepted his Gym challenge, but Red claimed that he would battle him as the enemy of all Pokémon, instead of a Gym Leader. Hearing this, Giovanni put aside his usual Gym Leader battling [[party|team]] and took out his strongest pair of Pokémon, contained within [[Ultra Ball]]s. The first one was {{p|Rhyhorn}}, which single-handedly was able to defeat four of Red's Pokémon before drawing with his {{p|Hitmonlee}}. During the {{pkmn|battle}}, Giovanni started actually feeling excited, and wondered why he was feeling that way. When he saw the pose Red took while sending out his Charizard, he finally remembered his childhood passion for Pokémon and battling, and wondered how he could have ever turned into a person who only treated Pokémon as tools for business. After Red's Charizard had defeated Giovanni's last Pokémon, {{p|Rhydon}}, Giovanni offered him the Earth Badge as a proof of his victory. Red, however, refused to take a Badge from the Boss of Team Rocket. Seeing this, Giovanni turned to his minions, informing them that from that moment onward, Team Rocket would be officially disbanded. He then turned back to Red, now offering the Badge to him not as the Boss of Team Rocket but as the Viridian City Gym Leader. Red accepted the Earth Badge and left, heading for the [[Indigo Plateau|Pokémon League]].

As his battle with Red had reminded Giovanni of how Pokémon could be taken as fun rather than business, he decided that he wanted to find a new path for himself and his Pokémon, without being the Boss of Team Rocket any longer.

===Pokémon Generations===
[[File:Giovanni PG.png|thumb|250px|Giovanni in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]
Giovanni first appeared in ''[[PG02|The Chase]]''. After the [[International Police]] had failed to find him during a raid at the [[Viridian Gym]], he was seen standing on a hill near [[Viridian City]], declaring that Team Rocket would never fall, before walking away. Along with his disapparance, rumors about Team Rocket's disbandment began circling around.

He reappeared in a flashback in ''[[PG05|The Legacy]]''. [[Looker]] approached Giovanni's son {{ga|Silver}}, hoping to find information on him as he had not been seen since his disappearance three years prior. However, all Silver could describe was his own last encounter with Giovanni three years ago, in which the two had a falling out that fractured their relationship.

===Pokémon Zensho===
[[File:Giovanni Zensho.png|thumb|250px|Giovanni in Pokémon Zensho]]
Giovanni appears in [[PZ05]], where he is watching {{Zensho|Satoshi}} from the hidden cameras within the [[Silph Co.]] building. He orders one of his {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s to try and stop Satoshi from reaching him. [[PZ07|Two chapters later]], he has taken the boss of Silph Co. hostage and threatens to harm him if he refuses to tell Giovanni where the [[Master Ball]] was. However, he is interrupted when Satoshi and [[Sabrina]] teleport their way to the top floor. Lapras uses {{m|Mist}} to blind {{p|Nidoqueen}}, but she launches a {{m|Poison Sting}} attack. One of the needles from the attacks hits Giovanni. Satoshi and the others manage to escape afterwards. In ''[[PZ09|Viridian City]]'', Giovanni was revealed to be the final Gym Leader that Satoshi challenges. Satoshi manages to defeat him and earns the {{Badge|Earth}}.

==Trivia==
* Giovanni is the only [[Gym Leader]] in the {{pkmn|games}} to appear outside of his [[Gym]] in [[Generation I]], a feature that would become more and more common up to [[Generation IV]], during and after which all Gym Leaders in the featured regions appear outside of their Gym in one way or another.
** He is also the only Gym Leader not to use the "A Trainer Appears (Boy Version)" song before the battle.
* In the official Red and Blue guide from [[Nintendo Power]], Giovanni was labelled to be a regional boss of Team Rocket (implying he's not the absolute leader). This was invalidated in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, where it was made clear that Giovanni was the absolute leader of Team Rocket (even having an [[Team Rocket HQ|office in Johto]]).
* Giovanni is likely based on the boss of a {{wp|Yakuza}} faction, possibly more on the {{wp|bakuto}} factions than others, considering [[Team Rocket]]'s former ownership of the [[Celadon Game Corner]]. Outside of Japan, this reference is localized, making him more akin to a {{wp|Mafia}} boss (especially considering his English name being Italian in origin).
* In {{B2W2}}, Giovanni and [[Norman]] are tied for using more different species of Pokémon than any other Gym Leader at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]], with a total of 10.
* Official material for the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] uses Giovanni's official artwork from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, even though he uses his design from {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} in the games themselves.
** He is the only character to appear in the Pokémon World Tournament who does not use his most recent official artwork in promotional material.
* In {{game|Yellow}}, he is the only Gym Leader who uses a Pokémon not of the type he specializes in during Gym battles.
* In his official {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} artwork, Giovanni has the same pose as {{me|Mewtwo}} X in [[a:File:150Mewtwo-Mega X.png|its official artwork]], just mirrored.
* Artwork made by Ken Sugimori suggests that Giovanni was not originally going to be the Gym Leader of Viridian City.<ref>https://twitter.com/SUPER_32X/status/611129653110026241</ref>
* Giovanni debuted in {{g|GO}} as a [[GO Snapshot]] photobomb at [[List of events in Pokémon GO|Pokémon GO Fest in Yokohama]].
* The teaser trailer for the debut of [[Team GO Rocket]] in GO contains the line "Earth is where I shall unleash my evil schemes next!" This is a reference to Giovanni's final line in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, in which he ponders "Now...what new world shall I unleash my evil schemes upon...?" before warping away from [[Aether Paradise]].
* Giovanni is the only character to be the leader of more than one [[villainous team]].

'''Swampert''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラグラージ''' ''Laglarge'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Marshtomp}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Mudkip}}.

Swampert can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Swampert''' using the [[Swampertite]].

==Biology==
Swampert is an {{wp|Amphibian|amphibian}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a bulky frame and four thick limbs, the two longer ones at the front serving as arms while the shorter limbs provide support for the creature if it chooses to stand upright. Swampert is semi-bipedal. It can stand on its three-toed feet with a hunched posture, and pick up or grab objects with its hands, but when moving about it tends to run on all four limbs. It has orange conical {{wp|gill}}s that protrude from round patches on either side of its face. Two large fan-like black fins extend from the top of its orange eyes to the back of its head. Similarly, a black fan-like tail fin extends upward from its hindquarters. Swampert is predominantly cobalt with a white abdomen, orange gills, and similarly orange padding on all four limbs.

Swampert boasts the physical strength to easily drag an enormous boulder weighing more than a ton, batter down opponents, and swim faster than a jet ski. It can even tow a large ship while swimming. Swampert's arms are as hard as rocks. The arms can shatter enormous boulders to pieces. It has keen eyesight, enabling it to see in murky waters. Swampert also can predict storms, sensing subtle differences in the sounds of waves and tidal winds with its fins. When a storm is approaching, Swampert will pile up boulders to protect its nest. It makes its nests on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|beautiful beaches}}. The reason Swampert covers itself in mud is that it wants to keep its skin moist. It has also been seen living on beautiful beaches.

In [[Generation III]], {{m|Muddy Water}} was its [[signature move]].

===Forms===
Swampert can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Swampert.

As Mega Swampert, this Pokémon gains considerable bulk. Its upper body and arms become more muscular, bulging compared to its squat lower body. The orange padding on Swampert's thighs vanish, but it gains two additional patches of orange padding on each wrist and another patch on each shoulder. This padding and its gills become a darker, redder shade of orange, while the gills are now larger and bulbous, with filaments extending past its mouth. The black fins on its head are thicker and now extend down past its shoulders. The black tail fin is still shaped like an upward-turned fan, but it now forms a short ridge that extends up to this Pokémon's forehead, flanked on either side by the aforementioned head-fins. The webbed digits on Mega Swampert's "hands" take on a black color and now feature better defined {{wp|Joints of hand|articulations}}. According to the [[XY043|anime]], Mega Swampert fills the organs on its back with air before diving underwater or battling; it uses that pressure to increase the power of its punches.

[[File:Mega Evolution Pokédex Swampert.png|thumb|250px|Mega Swampert in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
Swampert debuted in ''[[AG032|Abandon Ship!]]'', where {{OBP|Tommy|AG032}}'s Marshtomp was revealed to have evolved into one while living in the [[Abandoned Ship|Forsaken Ship]] ever since it was accidentally separated from Tommy. Since then, it had come to believe that Tommy had abandoned it. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrived on the Forsaken Ship and ran into Tommy, Swampert abducted them one by one and trapped them in the webbing of its {{p|Spinarak}} partner until only Ash, {{an|Brock}}, Tommy, and {{p|Pikachu}} were left. After Swampert's memory was rehabilitated, the two officially reunited.

In ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]'', [[Morrison]] introduced his Swampert to Ash and his friends. In ''[[AG130|Choose It or Lose It!]]'', he used it in his [[Ever Grande Conference]] {{pkmn|battle}} against Ash, where it tied with his {{AP|Corphish}}.

Swampert battled [[Ash's Pikachu]], {{AP|Talonflame}}, and [[Clemont's Chespin]]. It was later freed from their control when [[Alva]]'s Mega Wave Crystal was destroyed.

In ''[[JN105|Reuniting for the First Time!]]'', [[Wallace]] used a Swampert to battle Ash, going up against his {{AP|Dragonite}}.

==Trivia==
* Swampert has the highest base stat total of any fully-evolved first partner Pokémon.
**This also applies to Mega-Swampert regarding Mega-Evolutions of any fully-evolved first partner Pokémon.
* [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] Swampert is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 635.
* Swampert and its pre-evolved form are the only first partner Pokémon to have a 4× weakness against another first partner Pokémon type ({{t|Grass}}).
** However, said weakness is also Swampert's only weakness, making it the only fully evolved first partner Pokémon to have only one weakness - the least amount.

===Origin===
Like its pre-evolved forms, Swampert appears to be based on the {{wp|Necturus|mudpuppy}}, {{wp|axolotl}}, {{wp|mudskipper}}, or the {{wp|Gilled lungfish|gilled African lungfish}}. Swampert's portrayal in the anime suggests that it could also be based on common depictions of a {{wp|List of swamp monsters|swamp monster}}—a fictional, frequently antagonistic creature imagined to live in swamps and often has some physical humanoid traits. The fins on its head and tail resemble {{wp|Japanese war fan}}s, also known as ''tessen''. Its stance is reminiscent of {{wp|rikishi|sumo wrestler}}s.

====Name origin====
Swampert may be a combination of ''{{wp|swamp}}'' and ''rampart'', ''expert'', or ''earth''.

Laglarge may be a combination of ''{{wp|lagoon}}'', ''large'', and possibly ''lag'' or ''lug''.

'''Sunyshore City''' (Japanese: '''ナギサシティ''' ''Nagisa City'') is a city in the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]], and the location of the region's final Pokémon [[Gym]]. Sunyshore City is known as a major port town and the gateway to Sinnoh's {{si|Pokémon League}}. It is situated on a narrow spit of land bordered by the sea and the mountains. To make up for the lack of space, the city built solar panels to use for power and roads. There are suspended roads throughout the city that collect solar energy to power the city.

[[Jasmine]], [[Olivine City]]'s [[Gym Leader]], is seen in this city. She states that Sunyshore reminds her of home, because they both are by the sea, and both have a rather large lighthouse. After beating [[Volkner]], Jasmine will give the {{player}} {{HM|07|Waterfall}}.

Until {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/4|D}}{{sup/8|BD}}, {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/4|P}}{{sup/8|SP}}, or {{p|Giratina}}{{sup/4|Pt}} has been battled, the city experiences a massive blackout caused by Volkner's extensive Gym renovations. Due to this, a man in [[Valor Lakefront]] prevents anyone from entering {{rt|222|Sinnoh}}, the only way to Sunyshore from the rest of Sinnoh.

==Slogan==
'''''Solar Powered!''''' (Japanese: '''{{j|たいようがてらすまち}}''' ''The town where the sun shines.'')

==Places of interest==
===Sunyshore Market===
{{main|Sunyshore Market}}
[[File:Sunyshore Market BDSP.png|thumb|left|Sunyshore Market]]
The Sunyshore Market is a small building located in Sunyshore City. It is located in the center of Sunyshore City, just north of the [[Poké Mart]], by the beach. The Sunyshore Market is one of the world's largest [[Seal]] centers. It is well known for its big selection of Seals from around the world. The building is always stacked with boxes of products. There are four desks and only three are occupied, though the player can only purchase items from the Seal shop by the man at the back of the room. The man at the stand will sell the {{player}} [[Poké Ball]] Seals. To buy these Seals, the player first must have obtained the [[Seal Case]] from the house just west of the [[Solaceon Ruins]]. The Seals he sells change every day. There is also a lady on the left to the entrance at the market giving away an {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Effort Ribbon}} to certain Pokémon, that have 510 [[Effort values]].

===Walkway===
This city is also famous for its walkway, which is necessary for traveling around the city.

===Vista Lighthouse===
[[File:Vista Lighthouse BDSP.png|thumb|Vista Lighthouse]]
{{main|Vista Lighthouse}}
The Vista Lighthouse can be found in the far southeastern corner of Sunyshore City. While not as spectacular as the [[Olivine Lighthouse|lighthouse in Johto]], consisting only of an elevator and an observation deck, it has a similarity in that it is the location in which the city's [[Gym Leader]], [[Volkner]], is found before appearing in the [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]]. The player can see the Sinnoh Pokémon League building if they look into the binoculars. Volkner, unlike [[Jasmine]], however, is not caring for an ailing Pokémon, merely contemplating remaining a Gym Leader or going to the {{si|Pokémon League}} to challenge the [[Elite Four]], since he has had no worthy challengers for a while.

===Julia===
There is also a lonely woman named [[Julia]] who will hand out {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Memorial Ribbons|seven}} [[Ribbon]]s, one for each day of the week. The Ribbons she hands out differ according to her mood, which changes every day. The {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Memorial Ribbons|Ribbons}} she hands out are as follows:

===Pokétch developer===
In the house only reachable by {{m|Rock Climb}}, a lone scientist has been given the okay by the [[Pokétch Company]] to develop original [[Pokétch]] applications. If he is shown a Pokémon with one of three Natures, he will give away one of three different applications.

===Pokémon Rock===
Pokémon Rock is a giant rock formation found on the east side of the city. Pokémon Rock is one of the city's famous landmarks, famous for its strange shape that resembles a {{p|Munchlax}}{{sup/4|DPPt}}/{{p|Snorlax}}{{sup/8|BDSP}} standing{{sup/4|DPPt}}/sitting{{sup/8|BDSP}} in the bay.

===Sunyshore Gym===
{{main|Sunyshore Gym}}
The Sunyshore Gym is the official [[Gym]] of Sunyshore City. It is based on {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Volkner]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him receive the {{badge|Beacon}}. The Sunyshore Gym is a three-room Gym where the main floor is made up of gigantic gears and clockwork suspending platforms operated by buttons. To get through, Trainers need to rotate the platforms in a correct order to create a path. The Gym has exposed dynamos that use up a large amount of electrical power, prompting the town to renovate the pathways into solar energy collectors. For defeating Volkner, Trainers receive the {{badge|Beacon}}, {{TM|57|Charge Beam}}, and the ability to use {{m|Waterfall}} outside of battle.

==In the anime==
[[File:Sunyshore City Lighthouse.png|thumb|220px|Sunyshore City Lighthouse]]
[[File:Sunyshore City anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Sunyshore City in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Sunyshore City, like the {{pkmn|games}}, is shown to be a city built around solar energy, with numerous solar panels and [[Sunyshore Tower]] powering various technological machines in the city. Many escalators and roads made up of moving tiles are found throughout the city, and a lighthouse is also situated at the city's shore. Sunyshore [[Gym Leader]] [[Volkner]] is responsible for the city's now shining vision, however in the past the city was plagued by criminal gangs and [[Pokémon poacher]]s.

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first arrived in Sunyshore City in ''[[DP165|Flint Sparks the Fire!]]'', where Ash visited the [[Sunyshore Gym]], only to find the [[Gym]] was handing out free [[Badge]]s. Angered, Ash met [[Flint]] of the [[Elite Four]], who brought him to the disenchanted Volkner. Despite Ash personally requesting a Gym {{pkmn|battle}}, Volkner still refused to battle him. Flint decided to battle Ash, and they were able to renew the spark for battling within Volkner.

In ''[[DP166|The Fleeing Tower of Sunyshore!]]'', as Ash and Volkner prepared to have their Gym battle, the electricity was cut off unexpectedly. They realized that this was due to {{TRT}} stealing Sunyshore Tower. Ash and Volkner successfully fought off Team Rocket, but Ash's Gym battle had to be postponed as the tower needed repairs. Ash and his friends decided to take this opportunity to head to [[Valor Lakefront]] for the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]].

Ash returned to Sunyshore City for his Gym battle in ''[[DP179|The Eighth Wonder of the Sinnoh World!]]'', and he earned himself the {{badge|Beacon}}. In ''[[DP180|Four Roads Diverged in a Pokémon Port!]]'', Ash missed the boat to [[Lily of the Valley Island]] and stayed in Sunyshore City, only to meet {{si|Kenny}}, [[Jasmine]], and Flint. Jasmine, who was on a journey of discovery, challenged Flint to a battle but lost, while Ash battled Kenny to decide who {{an|Dawn}} should travel with from now on. Ash and his friends later left for the [[Lily of the Valley Conference|Sinnoh League]].

Ash returned to Sunyshore City once again in ''[[JN077|Ultra Exciting from the Shocking Start!]]'', this time with [[Goh]], to participate in a [[World Coronation Series]] Ultra Class battle against Volkner at the Sunyshore Gym. After a gruelling match, Ash was able to defeat Volkner once again and increase his ranking.

In ''[[JN117|The Fiery Road to Mastership!]]'', Volkner and Flint were seen watching {{an|Cynthia}}'s [[Masters Eight Tournament]] battle against {{an|Iris}} in Sunyshore City.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Sunyshore City Adventures.png|thumb|300px|Sunyshore City in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
Sunyshore City first appeared in ''[[PS404|Encountering Elekid]]'', where the manager of [[Valley Windworks]] had arrived to investigate the blackout that was troubling the city. He traced the source of the problem to the [[Sunyshore Gym]], where [[Volkner]] had made renovations out of boredom, with the result that the new systems he had installed in the Gym drained most of the city's electricity. Before the manager could properly berate Volkner of his irresponsible behavior, the Sunyshore [[Gym Leader]] received a call from [[Byron]] to go train with [[Maylene]], [[Candice]], and {{adv|Platinum}} at the [[Spring Path]].

===={{MangaArc|Platinum}}====
Sunyshore City appeared again in ''[[PS440|The Final Dimensional Duel X]]'' and ''[[PS441|XI]]'', where [[Charon]] escaped the [[Distortion World]] through a portal created by {{DL|Pokémon of Myth (Adventures)|Giratina}}, only for him and Giratina to be struck by a {{m|Draco Meteor}} from [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] immediately upon exiting the portal. [[Cynthia]] had predicted that Giratina would appear in Sunyshore City, as it was a place constantly bathing in sunlight, which Giratina, who had lived an eternity in a dark world, would want.

After everyone else who had been involved in the final battle in the Distortion World had come through the portal as well, [[Cyrus]] told his {{tc|Commander}}s that he was hereby disbanding [[Team Galactic]]. He then departed with [[Saturn]], [[Mars]], and [[Jupiter]], while Charon was arrested by {{adv|Looker}}. Before Looker could go after the other Commanders, however, he received a call from the [[International Police]] HQ, ordering him to depart to the [[Unova]] [[region]] at once to investigate the [[Seven Sages]]. Before his departure, he gave {{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}} a {{p|Manaphy}} {{pkmn|Egg}} he had been entrusted with during an earlier mission in [[Fiore]].

==Trivia==
* Sunyshore City is [[Cyrus]]'s hometown.
* The layout of the city is very similar to [[Olivine City]] with exits to the north and west of the city, two houses in the northeastern corner, Gym in the northwestern corner and a lighthouse in the southeastern corner.
** This city is also similar to [[Vermilion City]] in [[Kanto]]. Both's Gym Leaders use Electric-type Pokémon, and both border the sea.
***Both have misspelled names where a double letter is changed into a single letter.
* As [[Jasmine]] leaves the player with HM07, she walks back to the shore saying "...Um... I... I don't know how I should say this, but good luck." This is the same phrase she gives when she's defeated at the [[Olivine Gym]].

He is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es '''Galactic Boss'''{{sup/4|DPPt}}/'''Team Galactic Boss'''{{sup/8|BDSP}} (Japanese: '''ギンガだんボス''' ''Team Galactic Boss'') and '''Team Galactic''' (Japanese: '''{{j|ギンガだん}}''' ''Team Galactic'').

==In the core series games==
As the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus is the main antagonist of the [[Sinnoh]] games, with the ultimate goal of summoning {{p|Dialga}} and/or {{p|Palkia}} in order to destroy the universe so that he may start it again as its god. Born and raised in [[Sunyshore City]], he was known to be a good, albeit asocial, student, and so preferred the company of machines over humans and Pokémon. Despite being such a good student, however, he did not live up to his parents' expectations, and so felt rejected. Sometime after this, he decided emotions were the source of all strife in the world, and that only the elimination of emotions, along with spirit, could be the end of fighting in the world, which lead to his plan and actions during the storyline in Sinnoh. His grandfather, who lives on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}} in {{game|Platinum}}, regrets not taking him in during his time of need. It is also notable that Cyrus is very persistent in order to reach his dream. After being defeated one final time by the player, he ominously hints that he will someday make his ultimate goal into a reality. In the [[Distortion World]] in Platinum, it is questionable what happened to him, as he simply walks away, deeper into the world, and is not encountered on the player's return visit.

In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} and {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the {{player}} first meets Cyrus in [[Mount Coronet]], but he does not battle them, nor give his name. Later on, the two men guarding [[Lake Valor]] will mention his name in passing, though Cyrus himself is not identified until he introduces himself after the player defeats a {{tc|Team Galactic Grunt}} and investigates the ruins in [[Celestic Town]]. He is later fully identified as the boss of Team Galactic when the player raids the [[Team Galactic HQ]] and meets him in his office. After being defeated, he gives the player a [[Master Ball]], claiming he doesn't need it for what he's planning, and telling the player to free the captured [[lake guardians]] if they so wish, as they've already served their purpose to him. At the [[Spear Pillar]], Cyrus uses the [[Red Chain]] to summon {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/4|D}}{{sup/8|BD}} or {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/4|P}}{{sup/8|SP}}, intending to use its divine power to create a new world, where he will be a deity. However, the lake guardians stop the creation process and destroy the Red Chain, thwarting Cyrus's plan. Flying into a rage, Cyrus battles the player one more time. After being defeated, he claims he will have revenge and disappears. His assets and duties are left to [[Saturn]]. In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, Cyrus can be encountered and fought at the {{si|Battle Tower}} during the post-game.

In {{v2|Platinum}}, Cyrus's role is expanded a bit, as he is first met at [[Lake Verity]] near the start of the game. He is also met in front of the statue in [[Eterna City]]. Unlike before, he is first battled in the ruins of Celestic Town, where he also reveals himself as the boss of Teams Galactic. At the Team Galactic HQ, the player and [[Looker]] witness Cyrus giving a speech to all of his underlings before the player meets him in his office. There, he divulges that his true intention is to create a new world solely for himself, and he is merely using Team Galactic to that end. After summoning both Dialga and Palkia at the Spear Pillar with his two Red Chains, he is taken by {{p|Giratina}} to the Distortion World, where he eventually battles the player one last time. After the player battles Giratina, Cyrus stays in the Distortion World, still vowing to create a world without spirit.

An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Cyrus appears as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}. He is one of the second pair of bosses the player must face, along with [[Lysandre]]. Like the other bosses, this Cyrus was summoned from a world where his plans succeeded. However, as he explains to the player, he was engulfed by a mysterious shadow during his moment of victory and transported to the game's world. At first, he appears confused about his location, asking the player if he has reached the new world. No matter what the player's response is, he senses that the player possesses a strong spirit and concludes that he has not reached his desired world. The [[Rotom Pokédex]] catches his attention, and he interacts with it, leading him to realize that even the Pokédex has a spirit in the game's world. Resolving to remove the human spirit from the world he is in and bring it to a perfect state, Cyrus challenges the player, using Dialga{{sup/7|US}}/Palkia{{sup/7|UM}} as part of his team. After losing, he realizes upon Rotom's suggestion that the source of the player's strength is their friendship with all Pokémon, and promises that he will not do anything to the game's world, deciding instead to return to the perfect world that he created. Cyrus gives the player the [[Galactic Key]], which allows them to undo one of the locks on [[Giovanni]]'s headquarters. He is later returned to his original world by [[Colress]] off-screen.

{{main|Cyrus (Masters)}}
Cyrus forms a [[sync pair]] with {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Darkrai}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. Cyrus became a playable sync pair on August 17, 2020.

In this game, Cyrus is from the [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] where his plan succeeded, which was introduced in {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, as Cyrus has never heard of the [[Distortion World]] despite {{mas|Cynthia}} saying that Cyrus was defeated there. Cyrus also said that he was about to use {{p|Dialga}} and Palkia to remake the world when he was interrupted by {{p|Hoopa}}'s ring. The whereabouts of Cyrus from this game's continuity are currently unknown.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Cyrus anime.png|thumb|250px|Cyrus in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''====
Cyrus is a rich businessman who made most of the buildings and libraries throughout [[Sinnoh]]. Using his businessman alter-ego, he frequented the [[Celestic Town Historical Research Center]], becoming good friends with {{an|Cynthia}} and [[Professor Carolina]], while he undertook research on Sinnoh mythology for his and [[Team Galactic]]'s ultimate goal, to create a new world.

Cyrus debuted in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]''. He was presented as a businessman at the time, while {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} did not know that he was also the Team Galactic leader. Meanwhile, the remaining members of Team Galactic carried out a plan to steal the [[Lustrous Orb]] from the Celestic Research Center, after having already stolen the [[Adamant Orb]] from its [[Eterna City]] police escort.
[[File:Cyrus DP096.png|thumb|left|220px|Cyrus as a businessman in his debut]]
He discovered that {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} saw {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Azelf}} and {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Mesprit}}, respectively, when the two recalled their encounters with them at [[Lake Verity]] and [[Lake Valor]]; this apparently intrigued him.

In ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]'', Cyrus was seen in [[Team Galactic HQ]] alongside [[Saturn]] and [[Jupiter]] as well as [[Charon]]. They were coordinating [[Mars]]'s mission on [[Iron Island]] and using a beam launched with the [[Spear Key]] to scan energy readings from the [[Spear Pillar]]. However, the scan only reached 60% after Ash and his friends intervened. Despite the setback, Cyrus did not appear to be discouraged as the information received affirmed that Spear Pillar was somewhere on [[Mount Coronet]].

Towards the end of ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', Cyrus requested [[J]]'s services in capturing the trio of {{an|Lake guardians}}. In ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', he watched J's mission from Team Galactic's headquarters alongside [[Charon]]. Later, he supervised Charon's experiment to bring the captured lake guardians under their control with the [[Red Chain]] and revealed himself as Team Galactic's boss to Ash, Dawn, and {{an|Brock}} when they teleported into the laboratory. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', he took control of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} at Spear Pillar, and stepped into a [[dimension]]al portal created by the two [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Cyrus stepped into the portal to establish his utopian world before the portal was destroyed by the freed Dialga and Palkia.

He appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy, along with all of the other members of Team Galactic.

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
[[File:Cyrus memorial.png|thumb|250px|Cyrus's memorial in Team Galactic HQ]]
Some time after the events of ''The Battle Finale of Legend!'', Team Galactic escaped from police custody and reconstituted itself to try and rescue Cyrus from the other world by reopening the portal. In ''[[JNS01|The Arceus Chronicles (Part 1)]]'', a memorial image of Cyrus was seen on display in Team Galactic HQ as the Commanders set their plan into motion. He appeared in flashbacks in the two [[JNS02|following]] [[JNS03|episodes]]. Ultimately, Team Galactic managed to briefly reopen the portal but failed to rescue Cyrus, and were placed back under arrest.

====Character====
Cyrus is a master manipulator who comes across as affable and intelligent. Though he is noticeably tense, even when in his businessman alter-ego. He became increasingly irate and stubbornly determined to achieve his goal of establishing a new world. Fixated by details, he spent extensive time and resources to ensure his plan came to fruition. [[Team Galactic]] was ultimately an enabling factor of his grand vision, and he gathered skilled individuals like [[Charon]] and the {{tc|Commander}}s to achieve it. His selfish ambitions and manipulative efforts were finally revealed to everyone as he stepped forward to claim control over the new world for only himself in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]''.

Cyrus' legacy was present even long after his disappearance, where the remaining members of Team Galactic went to the last consequences looking for resources in order to bring him back.

The anime depiction of Cyrus largely omits the details of his past in the games (namely his growing up in an emotionally abusive household and that forming the basis of his desire to remake the entire world).

However, his plans were disrupted by {{p|Giratina}}, who freed Dialga and Palkia and dragged Cyrus into the [[Distortion World]]. After waking up, Cyrus realized that the Distortion World matched the world he sought. He then contacted a concerned [[Saturn]], telling him to not go looking for him.

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Cyrus Adventures.png|thumb|220px|Cyrus in Pokémon Adventures]]
====History====
====={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}=====
Cyrus debuts in ''[[PS348|A Big Stink Over Stunky]]'' as a silhouette walking down {{rt|207|Sinnoh}}, where he receives a package. He is fully revealed after signing the receipt and goes to [[Mount Coronet]]. When {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} pass through Mount Coronet, he coldly attacks them with his newly evolved Probopass and Magnezone, trapping them underneath a pile of rubble and leaves while stating that they were disturbing sacred ground.

Cyrus later appears at the Celestic ruins where Diamond and Pearl finally meet him in person. He came to the ruins to find information of the Legendary Pokémon Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit. He battles [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] and later, Diamond and Pearl, who had stolen the camera he used to take pictures of the paintings in the ruins. As they battle each other, Pearl has his [[Chatler]] destroy the camera that Cyrus was fighting for. With his camera destroyed and having the information he needed, Cyrus takes his leave and traps the two boys on top of a pillar of stone.

After [[Mars]], [[Jupiter]], and [[Saturn]] arrive from their successful mission to capture the [[Lake guardians]], Cyrus begins the creation of the [[Red Chain]].

After managing to make one Red Chain, Cyrus is attacked by the researcher of the Sinnoh myths and the Sinnoh region Champion, [[Cynthia]]. After a long battle, Cyrus manages to escape with Cynthia and her Garchomp far too exhausted to follow him. When he goes to check on the progress of the second Red Chain's creation, he finds that Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie have all been freed from their containers. Cyrus, realizing that recapturing them would be impossible and that he has to use his weaker, artificially created Red Chain, furiously flies off to the [[Spear Pillar]].

He arrives at the Spear Pillar where he greeted by his Galactic Commanders who were worried about his injured state. Cyrus tells them to ignore it and stop any intruders from interrupting his ritual to summon the Legendary {{DL|Pokémon of Myth (Adventures)|Dialga}} and {{DL|Pokémon of Myth (Adventures)|Palkia}}. Cyrus manages to summon the two Dragon Pokémon and has them fight each other, causing time and space to distort in various ways. Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter are eventually defeated by the Sinnoh Gym Leaders and they all ambush Cyrus while he has Dialga and Palkia fight each other. Despite his best efforts, Cyrus is unable to stop them from breaking the Red Chain he was using and unleashes his fury on them.

Later, when Diamond and Pearl go through with their assault on Dialga and Palkia, Cyrus attacks them while under the cover of a thick black {{m|haze}}. He reveals the reason for why he tried to make a new world; while Emotion, Knowledge, and Willpower make up a complete world, the world they live always has one that is lacking compared to the other two and as such, Cyrus aims to create a world without any of these aspects, a world that is perfect.

When Diamond uses his newly acquired {{p|Regigigas}} to stop Dialga and Palkia from causing any more space-time anomalies, Cyrus attacks the boy and knocks him off the giant Pokémon. Cyrus states that Diamond wouldn't be able to understand the reason why he does the things he does but the young boy replies with his own definition of Time and Space that he had learned on his journey with Pearl and Platinum. Cyrus at first ignores his words but quickly notices that Dialga and Palkia have stopped fighting with each other and quickly uses the Red Chain to get them fighting again. With only one Red Chain, Cyrus only has half control over the two dragons; Diamond and Pearl decide to take advantage of this and attack the two dragons with their teams.

Dialga and Palkia, now freed from their controlled status, use their powers to create a sphere of light that pulls Cyrus off the ground and into it. As he floats into the sphere of light, Cyrus looks at the Sinnoh Pokédex holders and realizes that they are a perfect combination of Knowledge (Platinum), Emotion (Diamond), and Willpower (Pearl) and that was the reason he was defeated. He is next seen lying unconscious on the ground where Cynthia decides to take him to the hospital before interrogating him. While he and the unconscious Gym Leaders he had defeated earlier are taken to get medical help an accident caused by [[Charon]]'s machine caused a [[Distortion World|hole]] to appear in the sky where mysterious {{DL|Pokémon of Myth (Adventures)|Giratina|black tentacles}} grab Dialga, Palkia, and Cyrus into it.

====={{MangaArc|Platinum}}=====
Later, Cyrus appears in the Distortion World, still alive after the battle on Spear Pillar. He is discovered by Diamond, who had been sent there after being hit by one of {{p|Giratina}}'s attacks. After explaining how he ended up there, Diamond asks Cyrus if he knew if there was any way to defeat Giratina. He takes Diamond to an area where Giratina had kept Dialga and Palkia trapped after it dragged them into the Distortion World. Cyrus reveals that his defeat at the Spear Pillar helped him see the error of his ways and he now wants to support Diamond's wishes. Together, they use their Pokémon to break Dialga and Palkia from the mineral that had them captured, freeing them in the process. Afterward, they ride the dragons over to where Pearl is, surprising him due to him not expecting Cyrus to be helping them.

As the battle between the Legendary Pokémon continues getting more and more chaotic, everyone begins to gather together. Cyrus listens to everyone realize that even though humans and Pokémon make mistakes, they'll work together to try to fix it. This gives Cyrus a sense of gratitude in his heart, which causes {{p|Shaymin}} to fly into his arms and later join the battle.

After Charon is defeated, Cyrus and his Commanders emerge from the Distortion World unharmed. Charon tries to lie to Cyrus by claiming that he intended to gather the Legendary Pokémon for Team Galactic's sake. Cyrus reaches down to Charon, which Saturn and Mars think it means he's going to pinch him. However, Cyrus only takes his machine and praises Charon for his technological genius. The records reveal that he has been using it since the battle on the Spear Pillar, which angers Saturn into figuring out that he was attempting to use the machine to control Dialga and Palkia into opening a hole to the Distortion World, to which Charon denies.

Cyrus speaks to his four Commanders once more and reveals that he is disbanding Team Galactic. He begins to leave and tells them to do whatever they wish, but an angry Jupiter tells him that without Team Galactic, she, Mars, and Saturn have nowhere else to go. Listening to her wishes, Cyrus takes Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter away with him and thanks Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum for their help.

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[File:Cyrus DPA.png|thumb|220px|Cyrus in Diamond and Pearl Adventure]]
Cyrus is first seen watching a Contest being performed by [[Mitsumi]] in [[Hearthome City]]. He introduces himself as a friend of hers to [[Hareta]] and then leaves after asking Hareta to give her his regards on her performance.

Later, at [[Celestic Town]], Cyrus, [[Jupiter]], and [[Saturn]] arrive at the ruins after Hareta manages to throw a bomb they planted into a safe area. Here, Cyrus introduces himself to Hareta as the leader of Team Galactic and reveals that he is also searching for the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Dialga}}. After revealing his plans, Cyrus makes his leave while Hareta follows him and Mitsumi is left behind to battle Jupiter and Saturn.

After catching up to him, Cyrus offers to let Hareta join him in his operation; Hareta refuses and they begin battling. The two have an intense battle and eventually, Hareta is knocked off of the bridge they were fighting on and is sent into the water below. Cyrus begins to mull over his victory, but Hareta suddenly returns from the water and defeats his {{p|Weavile}} with a {{a|Torrent}}-powered {{m|Surf}}. Suddenly, Cyrus realizes that he is starting to enjoy their battle; in a fit of rage and confusion, Cyrus commands his {{p|Gyarados}} to use {{m|Giga Impact}}, destroying the bridge and sending Hareta into the water once again, this time unconscious. Cyrus then leaves while questioning how he lost control over himself in their battle.

Later, at [[Lake Valor]], Cyrus arrives after Saturn is defeated by Hareta. Disappointed by his failure, Cyrus unceremoniously fires Saturn from Team Galactic and tells him to leave. Noticing that Hareta is still alive after previously defeating him, he is challenged to a battle by the boy and they begin battling. Cyrus almost defeats Hareta again, but he quickly loses his advantage once Hareta sets up a well-planned move. Before his Gyarados can be defeated by a {{m|Thunder}} fired from Hareta's {{TP|Hareta|Luxio}}, Saturn saves it with his {{p|Rhyperior}}'s {{a|Lightningrod}} and begs for another chance. Suddenly, Hareta defeats Saturn with a Torrent powered-up Surf from his Piplup; Cyrus takes the unconscious Saturn away and states that their battle was a draw while forgiving Saturn for his loss.

Later, while Jupiter battles Mitsumi at Lake Acuity, Cyrus sends a phone call to Jupiter in which he requests that Mitsumi comes to him. It is eventually revealed that Cyrus had picked up Mitsumi when she was a child and raised her to be Team Galactic's greatest warrior. By holding her beloved {{p|Eevee}} hostage, Cyrus forces Mitsumi to once again fight for him and makes her battle Hareta. As they battle, Cyrus coldly tries to convince Mitsumi that she is alone in the world and that she only belongs in Team Galactic. Eventually, Hareta manages to break through to Mitsumi and convinces her to fight as a real Trainer instead of a member of Team Galactic.

After Mitsumi is defeated, Cyrus leads Hareta to the room where he holds the three Pokémon of spirit, {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. Hareta manages to free them from their prison, but Cyrus managed to complete the item he was creating with the three Pokémon, the [[Red Chain]]. Cyrus assumes that Hareta hates him for his actions but is shocked to only find that he pities him instead. Cyrus gives Hareta a Master Ball and tells him to go to Mount Coronet where they can have one last battle; he then leaves the self-destructing Galactic Building with Hareta still inside.

Later, at the Spear Pillar, after waiting for the return of Hareta, Cyrus assumes he had died in the explosion and goes on with his plan. With the Red Chain, Cyrus finally summons the Pokémon of Time, {{p|Dialga}}, and takes control of it. With Dialga's control over time, Cyrus easily defeats Hareta's {{p|Empoleon}} and he announces his plan to destroy everything to start the world anew. Cyrus commands Dialga to send the world back to its beginning, causing everything revert to the start of the universe. [[Hareta's Empoleon]] attempts to sacrifice itself to stop Cyrus, against Hareta's wishes, but is stopped by the [[lake guardians]] who save everyone and break the Red Chain, freeing Dialga from Cyrus's control.

With Dialga freed, Cyrus has been defeated, but suddenly, the other god Pokémon, {{p|Palkia}}, arrives. While Dialga and Palkia fight, Cyrus witnesses Hareta, Mitsumi, and the Gym Leaders attempt to try to stop them, only to fail. Cyrus states that while the imperfect world will end, nothing will remain to replace it. Mitsumi states that Hareta won't let that happen because he is fighting for all of them. Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter come to help them fight Dialga and Palkia; Cyrus then explains to them how to defeat the two dragons.

Hareta uses Cyrus's plan and manages to get Dialga to use {{m|Roar of Time}}, stopping it momentarily. With Dialga frozen briefly, Cyrus and the others command all of their Pokémon to attack Dialga simultaneously, stopping the fight between the two gods. After the events end, Cyrus disappears along with his commanders. Some time afterwards, Cyrus is captured by Charon, who takes over Team Galactic. When Kaisei accidentally breaks into Cyrus' prison cell in the Team Galactic HQ, he offers to free Cyrus, but Cyrus turns him down, saying that he is waiting to see what Charon plans to do with Team Galactic.

During the battle against Charon in the Team Galactic HQ, Mitsumi and the three Commanders free Cyrus, and they set out to the Distortion World to fight Charon. Cyrus and the others, seeing the battle against Giratina in the forest arrive to assist, and Cyrus is last seen fighting Giratina with the others.

Later, when Charon escapes to Stark Mountain hoping to capture Heatran, Agent Looker stops him, claiming that Cyrus has disbanded Team Galactic.

==Trivia==
* The ''aka'' that appears in his Japanese name may refer to the color red, as a counterpart to [[Cynthia]], whose Japanese name refers to ''shiro'', white.
* In the {{pkmn|games}}:
** all of Cyrus's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are dual-[[type]]s, excluding his {{p|Entei}} from {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}'s {{gdis|Battle Tower|IV}}.
** all of Cyrus's Pokémon have a weakness to {{t|Rock}}, excluding {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} from {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}.
** all of Cyrus's non-{{pkmn2|Legendary}} Pokémon outside of the Battle Tower are of {{t|Dark}}- and/or {{type|Flying}} (his {{p|Honchkrow}} is both).
* Until [[Charon]]'s introduction, Cyrus was the only one of the four major characters of Team Galactic that does not share a name with a planet. Charon's Japanese namesake, {{wp|Pluto}}, is a {{wp|dwarf planet}}, but was considered a planet between its 1930 discovery and 2006. {{wp|Charon (moon)|Charon}} is the largest of Pluto's five moons. This makes Cyrus the only named Team Galactic member who is not directly named for a solar system object (though his English and German names are derived from one, and to a lesser extent the Chinese, Korean, and Russian names, the last of which resembled the constellation Sirius)
* Cyrus is the first leader of a [[villainous team]] to appear in the opening of a {{game3|Platinum|game}}.
* Although there are only three red gems visible on each of {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, Cyrus will recreate the Red Chain as many times as the player loses to him.
* Cyrus is the first leader of a villainous team to have his age stated in-game, as 27 by [[Looker]] in the Team Galactic Headquarters in [[Veilstone City]] in Platinum.
* {{ga|Silver}} and his counterparts own every single Pokémon Cyrus owns in the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl versions: Weavile, Honchkrow, and Gyarados in Pokémon Adventures and Crobat in the games, as well as Weavile's pre-evolution, Sneasel.
* In both the original Japanese version and English dub of the anime, Cyrus's voice actors have previously portrayed leaders of other villainous teams. [[Sean Schemmel]] played [[Team Aqua]] head [[Archie]], and [[Kenta Miyake]] also voices {{an|Giovanni}}, the boss of [[Team Rocket]].
* Cyrus is the first villainous team boss to use his own signature battle theme, as all the themes [[Giovanni]] uses up to [[Generation IV]] are shared with multiple other Trainers, and Archie and [[Maxie]] share a common battle theme with each other.
* In Platinum, Cyrus's highest-leveled Pokémon flips from being Murkrow in his first battle and Honchkrow in his second to Weavile in his third battle. This is not the case in Diamond and Pearl.
* Although Cyrus himself does not appear in [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], he and his plans to create a new world were given an indirect mention via the post-game antagonist.

==Names==
The majority of Cyrus's localized names refer to the Sun; this fits in with the Commanders' planetary naming scheme and may be a reference to how Cyrus would figuratively hold the Sun's position as the center of his new world. The Korean and Chinese names contain both a reference to red, like the Japanese one and to the Sun, like the localized Western ones.

His Russian name, aside from it referencing Cyrus, also was based on Sirius, which was the name of a star within the Canis Major constellation, fitting with the celestial naming scheme.

'''Naranja Academy''' (Japanese: '''オレンジアカデミー''' ''Orange Academy'') is a school located in [[Mesagoza]] in the [[Paldea]] region. Naranja Academy is exclusive to {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet}}. Its counterpart in {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Violet}} is [[Uva Academy]]. It is a sister school to [[Blueberry Academy]].

==In the games==
[[File:Naranja Academy Crest.png|thumb|left|200px|Naranja Academy crest]]
Naranja Academy is the oldest school in the [[Paldea]] region, and is located in the region's largest city, [[Mesagoza]]. It hosts classes which mostly relate to Pokémon. The school is attended by people from various regions across a wide range of age groups. Children and adults study in the same classes together; some classes are attended with Pokémon as well. The school faculty includes [[Clavell]], the school director; and [[Jacq]], the biology teacher.

In {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet}}, the {{player}} enrolls at the academy, and meets fellow students such as [[Nemona]], [[Arven]], and [[Penny]]. Clavell assigns to the player the independent study project, the Treasure Hunt. Some students of the academy are delinquents, and have formed [[Team Star]].

===Geography===
To get to the academy, students and faculty must climb a large outdoor staircase near the center of Mesagoza with over 150 steps in it, which has been described by students as "the worst staircase in the world." Upon entering the academy, students are greeted to a large entrance with three floors that also serves as the academy's library and general studying area. The most notable book in the library is the [[Scarlet Book]] to the right of the main entrance, which is described as a mysterious tome, and contains a large amount of detail surrounding the various mysteries of the Paldea region. The book was written by the historian Heath who was aided by his partner {{p|Cyclizar}}, with its contents being the result of an expedition funded by the academy. The tome covers [[Area Zero]] in the [[Great Crater of Paldea]], along with the various [[Herba Mystica]] and [[Titan Pokémon]].

The remainder of the lower floor of the library included a book called "Academy Rules and Regulations," which details how students should appear and behave within the academy, along with detailing that the Great Crater of Paldea is a prohibited area for any student's independent study; the "Student Registry," a nearly complete record of the students that have entered the academy and when; a book called "Pokémon Natures" that briefly covers [[natures]]; "Status Conditions and Catching Pokémon," which covers how Pokémon that have their HP lowered and Pokémon that have a [[status condition]] are both easier to catch; "Types and Moves I," which briefly goes over [[type]]s and explains the 50% boost from [[Same-type attack bonus|a Pokémon using moves that share the same type as it]]; "Types and Moves II," which details [[Terastal phenomenon|terastallizing]] and explaining that Pokémon get a 50% boost when using an attack that matches both their original typing and their [[Terastal phenomenon|Tera Type]] when terastallizing; and finally, a book entitled "The Naranja Academy School Song."

The middle floor of the library is made up of two separate wings that are connected only by the upper and lower floors. The left half covers "Art: The Scenic Route," a monthly magazine with an article covering "[[Brassius]], the Verdant Virtuoso;" the June issue of {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Occulture}}, a paranormal magazine that describes mysterious unidentified creatures; a book called "Festivals of Paldea," describing the Olive Harvest Festival in the town of [[Cortondo]]; the book "Appreciating Sunflora," which goes on to cover the connection between {{p|Sunflora}} to the town of [[Artazon]]; and "How to Become a Champion," a book that explains to trainers the requirements for them to reach the rank of [[Champion]] in the Paldea region. The right half of the floor covers a magazine called "Paldean Sports Monthly," which details "the Sub-zero Shredder['s]" sixth consecutive win in the [[Montenevera]] Cup and the upcoming [[Glaseado]] Mountain Cup; a magazine called "Sweet Truth," with an article about Cortondo's Patisserie Soapberry, which is owned by [[Katy]]; a magazine called "The Musician's Register," with an article covering [[Ryme]], "The MC of RIP," and the initial passing of her partner Pokémon; and the July issue of Occulture.

The upper floor of the library contains three areas with various books and magazines. The left and right sections are connected on this floor by a central area that is directly above the main desk of the entrance. Bird Pokémon such as {{p|Fletchling}} are seen throughout the floor. The left side of this floor contains the book "Of People and Pokémon," which covers the general history of humans and Pokémon; the August issue of Occulture; and the book "[[Sonia's Book|Galar: A History]]," covering the events at [[Stow-on-Side]] when the mural in the town was destroyed by {{DL|Rose|In the games|a borrowed Copperajah}}, leading to the discovery of [[Hero duo|a pair of Pokémon statues]] behind the destroyed mural and the true history of [[Galar]]. The central area contains a pamphlet called "Hall of Fame Badges: A Record," which explains the Hall of Fame Badge and those who have been awarded it, including {{prof|Sada}}; and the book "Fine Food from Far Away," which details the [[Pewter Crunchies]], the [[:Category:Local specialties|local speciality]] of the [[Kanto]] region's [[Pewter City]], describing its limited popularity due to its appearance and taste. The right section containing the September and October issues of Occulture; and a book called "Charcadet's Adventures," that covers the first half of a battle between {{p|Charcadet}} and a {{p|Gengar}}, along with a decision between two sets of armor that Charcadet must pick from to beat Gengar.

Rematch

2023-06-14T06:34:27Z

Braviapert: /* Rival */ The other cases mention the context too

{{incomplete|needs=Update on ORAS and SM, info for SV}}
A '''rematch''' or '''re-battle''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|再戦|さいせん}}''' ''rematch'') is a second or subsequent {{pkmn|battle}} against a {{pkmn|Trainer}} or {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

In the core series games, it is mandatory for the {{player}} to defeat certain Trainers to advance within the game. Technically, if the player is defeated, they are given the chance to battle this opponent again until defeated (barring exceptional circumstances), but this isn't considered a rematch.

Most of the time, however, if a Trainer is defeated, that Trainer will not be available for a rematch until certain conditions have been met. When Trainers usually agree to rematch, their Pokémon will have become stronger (level up or evolution), or they would already have acquired more Pokémon (sometimes from another region, once the player has obtained the [[National Pokédex]]).

==Types of rematch==
===Regular Trainers===
From [[Generation II]] onward, with the exception of {{game|Black and White|s}} and {{pkmn|X and Y}}, some regular Trainers found along normal routes and caves can be challenged for a rematch.

In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the player can exchange [[Pokégear]] phone numbers with specific Trainers, allowing them to contact the player for a rematch. Note that Trainers have to be rebattled as soon as possible, otherwise the chance to do so will disappear.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, trainer rematches through the [[Pokégear]] cannot be initiated until the following requirements are met:
*The player has collected seven [[Badge]]s
*[[Team Rocket]] has been defeated at the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] in [[Goldenrod City]]
*The player is not currently in the same route or location as the trainer
*The player calls the trainer during [[Pokégear#Trainer_phone_listing|the day of the week and time of day]] the trainer is open to rematch (trainers may call the player at random to rematch regardless of their rematch window)

Unlike Gold, Silver, and Crystal, trainers can be rebattled multiple times per day within their rematch window.

In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the number of difficulty levels and triggers are defined individually for each Trainer. Certain rematches are available only in Gold and Silver, while others are only in Crystal. The potential of a trainer calling for a rematch resets daily, but the following events are additional triggers for new rematches:

*Reaching a new city/town in Johto, starting with [[Goldenrod City]]
*Reaching the [[Lake of Rage]]
*Defeating [[Team Rocket]] at [[Mahogany Town]] or Goldenrod City
*Becoming {{pkmn|Champion}}
*Returning the [[Machine Part]] to the [[Kanto Power Plant]]

Additionally, in Gold and Silver, the player will battle the strongest team available, but in Crystal, each team has to be battled in order (including fighting the initial team again).

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Trainers' teams change three different times throughout the games' progression:
*Firstly after the player has obtained seven [[Badge]]s and [[Team Rocket]] has been defeated at the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] in [[Goldenrod City]]
*Secondly after the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]] for the first time
*Thirdly after the player has obtained all 16 [[Badge]]s

In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, the [[PokéNav]]'s {{DL|PokéNav|Trainer's Eyes}} or {{DL|PokéNav|Match Call}} has similar functions to the Pokégear, keeping track of Trainers who eventually want to re-battle the player. Regular Trainers are eligible for rematches after obtaining the {{badge|Balance}}; once it is obtained, if the player is on a map with eligible Trainers, each Trainer on the map has a separate 31% chance to demand a rematch every 255 steps.<ref>https://github.com/pret/pokeemerald/blob/master/src/battle_setup.c#l1605</ref>

In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], the Trainer's Eye function returns, and Trainers are ready for a rematch more frequently than in [[Generation III]]; in these games, the Trainers' teams improve as the player progresses through the game, and are at their strongest after the player has entered the Hall of Fame.

[[File:Vs Seeker demonstration FRLG.png|thumb|{{ga|Red}} uses the Vs. Seeker on {{rt|25|Kanto}}. Three Trainers wish to have a rematch.]]

In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, and {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, while outdoors, the player can use the [[Vs. Seeker]] to randomly make nearby Trainers ready for a rematch. Certain Trainers have stronger teams, depending on how far the player is through the game, as long as they have defeated that Trainer's previous party. New Vs. Seeker parties are unlocked at the following events:
* Obtaining the Vs. Seeker
* Arriving in [[Celadon City]]{{sup/3|FRLG}}/defeating [[Fantina]]{{sup/4|DP}}/defeating [[Crasher Wake]]{{sup/4|Pt}}
* Arriving in [[Fuchsia City]]{{sup/3|FRLG}}/capturing or defeating the cover Legendary Pokémon{{sup/4|DPPt}}
* Entering the Hall of Fame
* Delivering the {{i|Sapphire}} to [[Celio]]{{sup/3|FRLG}}/capturing or defeating {{p|Heatran}} at [[Stark Mountain]]{{sup/4|DPPt}}. 

In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, certain Trainers can be challenged daily at the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]]. In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, the player can battle one Trainer per day at [[Jubilife TV]], with the Trainer that appears varying with the [[days of the week|day of the week]]. In Pokémon Platinum, players can challenge several Trainers that appear in different [[Pokémon Center]]s once per day each, as well as repeatedly battle the {{tc|Maid}}s in the 5-Maid Knockout Exact-Turn Attack Challenge in the {{si|Pokémon Mansion}}.

In {{game|Black and White|s}} and {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Trainers in the [[Big Stadium and Small Court]] of [[Nimbasa City]] and the [[Royal Unova]] can be rematched daily. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, as the player progresses through the game, the Trainers' Pokémon are battled at higher levels, and will be at their strongest after the player has entered the Hall of Fame. Some Trainers may replace their Pokémon. {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}s in Black 2 and White 2 will re-challenge the player upon sight (as long as the player has left the area since their last battle), even if the player had previously defeated them; however, their teams remain the same during each battle.

In [[Pokémon X and Y]], Trainers in the [[Battle Chateau]] can be battled each time that Trainer has entered the Battle Chateau. Only those whose rank is the same as or lower than the player's will appear. The player can purchase {{DL|Battle Chateau|writs}} to have an effect on three different factors (party levels, [[prize money]], and Trainer arrival rate) for the remainder of that day, although issued writs can be swapped out if the new one has the same type of effect.

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], certain Trainers can be challenged daily at the [[Battle Buffet]] at [[Hau'oli City]]'s Shopping District.

In [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], Pokémon Breeder Chloe can be rematched whenever she is found in the [[Wild Area]], with teams differing based on if the player received the Fire Badge and if they enter the Hall of Fame. The {{tc|Café Master}}s in the [[Battle Café]]s throughout [[Galar]] can also be challenged daily.

In [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and {{Pokémon XD}}, there are certain areas that allow for multiple rematches, most notably in [[Pyrite Town]]'s Duel Square. Other locations such as [[Agate Village]] and [[The Under Subway]] allow for rematches only after getting past a certain point in the game.

===Rival===
Since Generation I, the player's [[rival]]s play key roles within the game, occasionally giving hints, helping out or even challenging the player to a rematch. In every game, at least one of the player's rivals can be repeatedly rematched after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] of that region.

The following table shows where and when the player's rivals can be challenged for subsequent rematches:

===Gym Leaders===
[[Gym Leader]] rematches were first introduced in {{game|Emerald}}. They are featured in all subsequent core series games with Gym Leaders, except for Pokémon Diamond & Pearl, Black & White, and Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire.

====Pokémon Emerald====
After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], every 60th wild encounter, every 20th Trainer battle, and every 20th {{ho|Battle Frontier}} battle, the game has 31% chance to make a [[Gym Leader]] rematch available.

Each Gym Leader has four teams, ordered from lowest [[level]]s to highest levels, and they will use each team after the player defeats their previous team. All teams contain Pokémon outside the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Hoenn Pokédex]]. However, the teams won't progress if the player hasn't done the [[New Mauville]] sidequest, and [[Wattson]] won't be available at all.<ref>https://github.com/pret/pokeemerald/blob/master/src/gym_leader_rematch.c#l32</ref>

====Pokémon Platinum====
[[File:Battleground Pt.png|230px|thumb|Battleground (from left): Maylene, Volkner, the player, the Café owner]]
{{main|Battleground}}
In {{game|Platinum}}, the Gym Leaders of [[Sinnoh]], together with the player's previous [[Stat Trainers|Multi Battle partners]], can be found in the [[Battleground]]. Up to four of these {{pkmn|Trainer}}s appear each day and they can be battled only once a day. The residing Trainers are generated upon entering the Battleground, potentially allowing for different Trainers after game resets.

====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver====
[[File:Fighting Dojo HGSS.png|230px|thumb|left|The Fighting Dojo with all the Gym Leaders]]
{{main|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV}}
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] are found in the [[Fighting Dojo]]. However, unlike Platinum, the Leaders will not arrive at the Dojo until they have been called on for a rematch.

To re-battle a Gym Leader, the player has to first obtain the Gym Leader's number. Following that, the player can call the Gym Leader at any time, but the Gym Leader will only accept a rematch when their schedule is free. When a Gym Leader has accepted a rematch, they will stay in the Fighting Dojo until they are defeated. There is no limit to the number of times a Gym Leader can be rematched.

====Pokémon Black 2 and White 2====
{{main|Pokémon World Tournament}}
In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, Gym Leaders can be rematched in the [[Unova Leaders Tournament]] at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].

====Pokémon X and Y====
{{main|Battle Chateau}}
In {{pkmn|X and Y}}, the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Kalos]] can be rematched at the [[Battle Chateau]] once the {{player}} has reached the rank of {{tc|Marquis}} or {{tc|Marchioness}}. The Gym Leaders use two of their Pokémon, who start at [[level]] 40. After the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], the base level of their team is changed to level 50, and the Pokémon for some of the Gym Leaders have been replaced.

Unlike in previous games, the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}} of Kalos do not receive higher level teams when rematched at the {{kal|Pokémon League}}. Instead, they can also be encountered at the Chateau. The Elite Four can be rematched when the player reaches the rank of {{tc|Duke}} or {{tc|Duchess}}. They use three Pokémon at the base level of 55. Finally, Champion [[Diantha]] can be rematched when the player reaches the highest rank, Grand Duke or {{tc|Grand Duchess}}, respectively. She uses four Pokémon, including her {{me|Gardevoir}}, at the base level of 60.

Like other Trainers at the Battle Chateau, issuing certain {{DL|Battle Chateau|writs}} can be used to adjust the levels of the teams used there by Gym Leaders, the Elite Four, and Diantha, as well as giving them the chance to appear more frequently.

====Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], after the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], each Gym Leader of [[Kanto]] can be rematched at their respective Gym once per day. At the [[Viridian Gym]], {{ga|Blue}} is battled instead of [[Giovanni]]. In addition, the Pokémon League can also be challenged again, with all Elite Four members possessing a Kanto Pokémon's {{rf|Alolan|Form}}.

====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
In [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]], each [[Gym Leader]] of [[Sinnoh]] can be challenged to a rematch at their respective [[Gym]] once per day after the [[National Pokédex]] has been obtained.

===Pokémon League===
The [[Pokémon League]] can be rematched in all [[core series]] games featuring one except {{g|Sword and Shield}} and {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. Starting in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, rematches against the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}} may feature teams at higher [[level]]s, sometimes with different Pokémon and moves.

In [[Generation I]], they are the only Trainers that can be rematched.

====FireRed and LeafGreen====
The [[Indigo Plateau]] will start using higher-level Pokémon once the player has completed the [[Sevii Islands]] post-game quest.

====Platinum====
The {{si|Pokémon League}} uses higher-level Pokémon after the player completes the [[Stark Mountain]] sidequest.

====HeartGold and SoulSilver====
The [[Indigo Plateau]] will start using higher-level Pokémon once the player has earned all 16 [[Badge]]s.

====Generation V====
The {{un|Pokémon League}} uses higher-level Pokémon after the player defeats them the first time.

====Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire====
The {{ho|Pokémon League}} will start using higher-level Pokémon once the player has completed the [[Delta Episode]].

====Generation VII====
The {{al|Pokémon League}} uses higher-level Pokémon after the player defeats them the first time.

====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
The Pokémon League has two sets of rematches.

The first set of rematch teams are used after the player has defeated the Pokémon League once and obtained the [[National Pokédex]]. These teams are based on the post-[[Stark Mountain]] teams the Elite Four and the Champion use in {{game|Platinum}}.

The second set of rematch teams are used after the player catches {{p|Heatran}} at [[Stark Mountain]] and has defeated the first set of rematch teams at least once.

===Title Defense===
[[File:Title Defense USUM.png|thumb|250px|The player defending their title in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}]]
====Pokémon Sun, Moon Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon====
{{main|Pokémon League (Alola)/Title Defense}}
In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], the player, as the first Champion of [[Alola]], has the opportunity to defend their title after completing their rematches against the Elite Four. In addition to their rivals, [[Hau]] and [[Gladion]], challengers include [[Trial Captain]] [[Sophocles]], [[island kahuna]] [[Hapu]], former [[Team Skull]] Admin [[Plumeria]], and the League's founder, [[Professor Kukui]].

====Pokémon Sword and Shield====
In [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], after the player becomes Champion, they can defend their title in subsequent [[Wyndon Stadium/Champion tournaments|Champion tournaments]] in [[Wyndon Stadium]]. Players can invite a sitting Gym Leader, their rival [[Hop]], former Leader [[Piers]], or former Champion [[Leon]] to join the tournament before it starts. However, doing so does not guarantee that the invited Trainer will be battled by the player, as they can be defeated in rounds prior to reaching the player. All Gym Leaders featured in the player's game of choice can be challenged through this tournament, except for [[Opal]], who retires her title to one of the player's rivals, [[Bede]].

After the player has completed [[The Crown Tundra]] story, the [[Galarian Star Tournament]] is opened. It allows the player to rematch all the present and former Gym Leaders, Hop, Leon, [[Peony]], [[Sordward]], and [[Shielbert]] in [[Multi Battle]] tournaments.

===Other special Trainers===
===={{ga|Red}}====
Once the player had defeated {{ga|Red}} in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, he will reappear at [[Mt. Silver]] every time the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]].

===={{ga|Green}}====
Once the player had defeated {{ga|Green}} in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], she will reappear in [[Cerulean City]]. The player can battle her once a day.

===={{tc|GAME FREAK}}====
Introduced in {{game|Black and White|s}}, [[Shigeki Morimoto|Morimoto]] of [[GAME FREAK]] can be battled once a day GAME FREAK's in-game [[region]]al headquarters in {{game4|Black|White|Black|White}}, {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon}}, {{pkmn|Sword and Shield|Sword, Shield}}, {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, usually after entering the region's respective [[Hall of Fame]]. In Black 2 and White 2, the player can also battle [[Kōji Nishino|Nishino]], and in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the player battles Morimoto and [[Kazumasa Iwao|Iwao]] in a [[Double Battle]].

The player can also battle Morimoto in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], but he is not rematchable in these games.

====[[Mustard]] and {{gal|Honey}}====
In [[The Isle of Armor]], after the player has defeated [[Mustard]] in the [[Master Dojo|Battle Court]], they can rematch him once a day upon request. {{gal|Honey}} can also be battled daily after spending enough [[Watt]]s to upgrade the Master Dojo.

====[[Peony]]====
In [[The Crown Tundra]], after the "They Came From The Ultra Beyond!" adventure is started, the player can battle [[Peony]] in the [[Max Lair]] once a day.

===Wild Pokémon from in-game events===
{{main|List of wild Pokémon from in-game events}}
{{incomplete|section|needs=Are effort values awarded in mandatory captures? Do rematches also apply for wild Mythical Pokémon? Stakataka/Blacephalon in USUM: do they reappear if defeated?}}
In all games, being defeated by a Legendary Pokémon does not cause it to disappear. In all games in which [[roaming Pokémon]] exist, [[Escape|fleeing]] from them does not cause them to permanently disappear; the game simply behaves the same as if they were the ones to flee.

Prior to Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, fleeing from stationary [[Legendary Pokémon]] causes the Pokémon to permanently disappear.

In Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, and Emerald, if the player flees from a stationary Legendary Pokémon, it will reappear upon leaving and re-entering the room. The game informs the player that "The <sc><Pokémon></sc> flew away!". If the player defeats an event exclusive Legendary/Mythical Pokémon, it reappears after the player next enters the [[Hall of Fame]].

In Pokémon Platinum, if the player defeats or flees from a stationary Legendary Pokémon, it reappears after the player next enters the [[Hall of Fame]]. If the player defeats a [[roaming Pokémon]], it will reappear only after the player has re-triggered the event which caused it to start roaming; for example, the player must talk to [[Professor Oak]] to cause a [[Legendary birds|Legendary bird]] to resume roaming. If the player flees from or defeats [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Giratina|Origin Forme]] {{p|Giratina}} in the [[Distortion World]], it will reappear in [[Turnback Cave]] in its Altered Forme, where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon.

This was extended to all stationary Pokémon ([[red Gyarados]], {{p|Sudowoodo}}, and {{p|Snorlax}}) in HeartGold and SoulSilver. If {{p|Suicune}} is defeated or fled from, [[Eusine]] will comment on this fact, and it will instead reappear at the [[Burned Tower]], where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon. If {{p|Ho-Oh}}{{sup/4|HG}} or {{p|Lugia}}{{sup/4|SS}} is defeated or fled from during the storyline, the [[Kimono Girl]]s will comment on this fact before leaving; however, the Pokémon still behave like any other stationary Pokémon.

In Pokémon Black and White, {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|B}} or {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|W}} must be caught; defeating, fleeing from or losing to the Pokémon does not cause it to disappear, the battle yields no [[experience]], and the story cannot be progressed until it is caught. However, if the player has a full [[party]] and [[PC]], it is possible to progress without catching it, in which case it instead appears at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] after defeating [[Ghetsis]], where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon, except that it will still not give any [[experience|experience points]].

In Pokémon X and Y, {{p|Xerneas}}{{sup/6|X}} or {{p|Yveltal}}{{sup/6|Y}} must be caught; defeating, fleeing from or losing to it does not cause it to disappear, the battle yields no [[experience]], and the story cannot be progressed until it is caught. The 31st box in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] does not become available until after the player catches it, so it is not possible to avoid the capture even if the player's party and PC are both full.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, if the player defeats {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/6|OR}} or {{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/6|AS}} instead of catching them in the main story, they will reappear in the [[Cave of Origin]] after entering the Hall of Fame. During the [[Delta Episode]], {{p|Rayquaza}} must be caught; defeating, fleeing from or losing to it does not cause it to disappear, the battle yields no [[experience]], and the story cannot be progressed until it is caught. The 31st box in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] does not become available until after the player catches Rayquaza, so it is not possible to avoid the capture even if the player's party and PC are both full. If the player flees from or defeats {{p|Deoxys}} in during the Delta Episode, it will reappear at the Dragonhark altar atop the [[Sky Pillar]] after entering the Hall of Fame again, where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon.

In Pokémon Sun and Moon, {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|S}} or {{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|M}} must be caught; defeating, fleeing from or losing to it does not cause it to disappear, the battle yields no [[experience]], and the story cannot be progressed until it is caught. The 31st box in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] does not become available until after the player catches the Legendary Pokémon. If the player defeats, flees from, or loses to {{p|Tapu Koko}} instead of catching it during the post-credits event, [[Lillie]] will comment on this fact, and Tapu Koko will immediately be available to battle again at the [[Ruins of Conflict]]. If the player defeats, flees from or loses to a roaming [[Ultra Beast]] or {{p|Necrozma}}, it will continue to reappear in the area until it is caught (the game reassures the player that it is still in the area).

In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|US}} or {{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|UM}} must be caught for it to disappear; defeating, fleeing from or losing to it does not cause it to disappear and the battle yields no [[experience]]. The 31st box in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] does not become available until after the player catches the Legendary Pokémon.

==In spin-off games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], [[Legendary Pokémon]] that have been battled and are involved in the storyline must be fought again in order to be [[Recruitment|recruited]].

===Pokémon Ranger series===
In the [[Pokémon Ranger]] series, the [[Drowsy Guy]] will allow the player to re-do a memorable capture. In {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, he allows the player to re-capture the [[Legendary beasts]], while in [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia|the sequel]], he allows the player to re-capture {{p|Darkrai}}. In [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]], [[Nema]] allows the player to re-battle several Boss Pokémon on a model of [[Dolce Island]] via the use of her "Many Times Any Time Capture Machine".

===Pokémon Trading Card Game series===
In {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} and [[Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!]], all duelists are available for rematches. However, in some cases, a duelist switches their deck permanently at some point. For instance, the [[rival]] character {{TCG GB|Ronald}} uses four decks in the first game: the first three decks are used in a single {{TCG GB|duel}} each, and then the fourth deck is used whenever the player challenges him for the Champion title at the [[Pokémon Dome]]. Similarly, in the second game, some [[Club Master]]s use a certain deck on their first duel, and then use a different deck in all subsequent duels.

===Pokémon Play It! series===
In [[Pokémon Play It!]] and [[Pokémon Play It! Version 2]], there is no limit to the number of {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}} matches against {{OBP|Julie|Play It!}}.

==In the anime==
With the exception of the [[Orange League]], {{Ash}} has had rematches with at least one Gym Leader, [[Frontier Brain]], [[island kahuna]], or [[World Coronation Series]] opponent in each leg of his {{pkmn|journey}}. It is noted that the list does not list any match-up which could not be defined as a battle.

==Trivia==
* [[Giovanni]] is the only in-game Gym Leader that cannot be rematched an indefinite amount of times. However, he can be battled multiple times via an event at [[Tohjo Falls]], if the player has multiple {{p|Celebi}}, as well as at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].
** [[Koga]], the other former Kanto Gym Leader, has been able to be rematched indefinitely since Generation II, where he was an [[Elite Four]] member, as well as in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].

'''May''' (Japanese: '''ハルカ''' ''Haruka'') is the female choice for the [[player character]] in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and their [[Generation VI]] remakes, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. She also serves as the [[rival]] in the same games if the player chooses to play as her male counterpart, {{ga|Brendan}}.

==In the core series==
===As the protagonist===
If May is selected as the player character, she starts her {{pkmn|journey}} moving from her home in [[Johto]] to her new home in the town of {{to|Littleroot}} in [[Hoenn]]. After saving [[Professor Birch]] from a [[wild Pokémon]], she is given one of the three starters of the Hoenn [[region]]. May develops a close bond with {{ga|Brendan}}, and eventually [[Wally]], who both act as her rivals. May goes on to gather the eight Badges of Hoenn, stop the plans of [[Team Aqua]]{{sup/3|Sa}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|AS}}/[[Team Magma]]{{sup/3|Ru}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|OR}} and conquer the Pokémon League all before going off to face the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}{{sup/3|E}}/[[Battle Maison]]{{sup/6|ORAS}}.

===As a non-playable character===
If May is not selected as the player, she is helping her dad finish the Hoenn [[Pokédex]] and becoming a Pokémon Professor. She is also the player's rival and friend. Along with Brendan (when playing as May), they are the only rivals unavailable for battle after entering the [[Hall of Fame]]. Additionally, they both are the only ones to not [[evolution|evolve]] their starter Pokémon into its final form, except for in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, where their starters have been fully evolved by the battle that takes place at [[Lilycove City]].

==Quotes==
{{main|May (game)/Quotes}}

==Optional names==
In the game, two of the optional names—one in Ruby and one in Sapphire—refer to "land" and "sea" respectively. In the English version, these are '''Terra''' and '''Mar'''ina; in the Japanese version, ムツミ '''''Mutsu'''mi'' and ナミ '''''Nami''''' (陸 ''mutsu'' means land and 波 ''nami'' means a wave of water). This is also the case in other languages. Unlike Brendan's name list, none of the three shared names correspond to this theme. 

In Emerald, if the player leaves the name writing screen without any written name, or with a name composed entirely of empty spaces, Professor Birch says "So it's <optional name>?", suggesting one of the 20 available names. The player may answer "Yes" to accept the suggested name, or "No" to return to the name writing screen.

May appeared in the [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Animated Trailer]]. She was first seen in [[Littleroot Town]]. She was then surrounded by two {{p|Wurmple}}, a {{p|Silcoon}}, {{p|Cascoon}}, and {{p|Shroomish}} in which Torchic used a Fire-type move to scare them off. May arrived in the [[Rustboro Gym]], where she had a [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Roxanne]] and her {{TP|Roxanne|Nosepass}}. During the battle, Mudkip evolved into Marshtomp.

Sometime after the battle, she participated in a {{pkmn|Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectacular}} with her {{p|Altaria}} and {{p|Audino}} and then was [[soaring in the sky]] with her Mega {{p|Latias}} alongside {{ga|Brendan}} and his Mega {{p|Latios}}.

====Pokémon Evolutions====
[[File:May Evolutions.png|thumb|250px|May in [[Pokémon Evolutions]]]]
May appeared in ''[[PE06|The Wish]]''. She arrived at the [[Sky Pillar]], where [[Zinnia]] led her to the top of the tower while reciting the lore of the [[Draconid people]]. At the summit, Zinnia summoned {{p|Rayquaza}} to save [[Hoenn]] from a [[Grand Meteor Delta|giant meteorite]], only to discover that Rayquaza had lost its ability to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]]. When May's [[Meteorite]] reacted to Rayquaza, she fed it to the [[Legendary Pokémon]], restoring its ability to Mega Evolve. May then battled against Rayquaza and managed to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. Afterwards, Zinnia challenged May to a {{pkmn|battle}} as her final duty as the Draconid Lorekeeper.

===In the manga===
====Pokémon Adventures====
[[File:Sapphire Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Sapphire Birch, May's [[Pokémon Adventures]] counterpart]]
{{main|Sapphire (Adventures)}}
May's counterpart in [[Pokémon Adventures]] is Sapphire, who, unlike her other counterparts, takes up Gym challenges and is an all-around tomboy thanks to a traumatic incident with {{adv|Ruby}} where a {{TP|Zinnia|Salamence}} attacked them when they were children. She does have a feminine side, however, as is shown in later volumes.

====Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire====
{{main|Sapphire (Ruby-Sapphire)}}
Another counterpart to May, also called Sapphire, appears in [[Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire]]. Just like {{an|May|May's anime counterpart}}, she is a {{pkmn|Coordinator}} who chooses {{p|Torchic}} as her [[starter Pokémon]].

====Pokemon Ruby Sapphire Special Capture Comic!====
May appears in [[Pokémon Ruby Sapphire Special Capture Comic!]].

====Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪====
{{main|Haruka (CCP)}}
May's counterpart in [[Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪]] is Haruka, who is a Pokémon Coordinator, but she is not very good at making [[Pokéblocks]].

==In the TCG==
The following is a list of cards mentioning or featuring May in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].

{{cardlist/footer|Colorless}}

==Trivia==
* As the [[player character]] (along with {{ga|Brendan}}), they are the only set of player characters that have both a [[mother]] and a father present in the {{pkmn|games}}.
* Before Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, May and Brendan were the only rivals whose [[starter Pokémon]] does not reach its final form.
* Screenshots of {{game|Emerald}} on the Japanese Nintendo website refer to May as "Emy" (Japanese: '''エミィ''').<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/bpej/frontier2/index.html Pokémon Emerald on Nintendo] (Japanese)</ref>
* Pre-release media for [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] referred to May as "Anna" (Japanese: '''アルファ''' ''Alpha'').
* One of {{SSB|Pokémon Trainer}}'s palette swaps in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]] has a color scheme based on May's appearance in {{game|Emerald}}.
* Similarly to Brendan, May's attire in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire is mainly based on her appearance in Emerald, though some elements are also taken from her appearance in {{v2|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.
* While the second battle with May (or Brendan if she is the player character) is optional, the encounter leading up to it is not.
** Therefore, after receiving the [[Devon Goods]] before encountering May or Brendan in Rustboro City, if the player [[Black out|blacks out]] without ever visiting the [[Pokémon Center]] in Rustboro City (which causes the player character to rush to [[Petalburg City]]'s Pokémon Center instead), the encounter and optional battle take place in {{rt|104|Hoenn}} in front of [[Mr. Briney]]'s house instead.
* May's teams in Emerald vary slightly from Brendan's teams:
** When battled in either [[Rustboro City]] or {{rt|104|Hoenn}}, May (if the player chose {{p|Torchic}}) uses a {{p|Torkoal}}, which is not used in future battles; Brendan uses a {{p|Slugma}} instead.
** When battled on {{rt|119|Hoenn}}, May (if the player chose {{p|Mudkip}}) uses a {{p|Lombre}}, which was not used in prior nor future battles; Brendan uses a {{p|Pelipper}} instead.

[[File:Pokemon-to-real-world-Europe.png|thumb|250px|The map of Europe showing the three main European Pokémon regions.]]
The designs of nine of the major Pokémon [[region]]s—[[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]]/[[Hisui]], [[Unova]], [[Kalos]], [[Alola]], [[Galar]], and [[Paldea]]—are strikingly similar in geography and demographics to regions in the real world, and they are sometimes even officially stated to be based on certain locations. The first four regions and the Hisui region are based on smaller regions in {{wp|Japan}}, Unova and Alola are based on parts of the {{wp|United States}}, Kalos is based on {{wp|France}}, Galar is based on the {{wp|United Kingdom}}, and Paldea is based on the {{wp|Iberian Peninsula}}, consisting in the countries of {{wp|Spain}}, {{wp|Portugal}} and {{wp|Andorra}}. It is said the inspiration for [[Orre]] is {{wp|Phoenix, Arizona}}.

==Core regions==
===Kanto===
The {{wp|Kantō region}} of Japan (関東地方, ''Kantō-chihō'', meaning "Region East to the Barrier", referring to the east of the Hakone checkpoint) is not only identical in name to [[Kanto]] in the [[Pokémon world]], but is also very similar geographically; however, the western part of the game map corresponds to eastern {{wp|Chūbu region|Chūbu}} (中部地方, ''Chūbu-chihō'', meaning "Central region", also called 中部日本, ''Chūbu-nihon'', that means "Central Japan").

It is based on the northernmost major island of Japan, {{wp|Hokkaido}} (北海道, ''Hokkaidō'', literally "Northern Sea Circuit"), as well as parts of the {{wp|Kuril Islands}} (Japanese: 千島列島 ''Chishima Rettō'', meaning "Archipelago of Thousand Islands"; Russian: Кури́льские острова́, ''Kurilskiye ostrova'', Kuril Islands). {{wp|Kunashir Island}} (Japanese: 国後島 Kunashiri Tō; Russian: Кунаши́р, "Kunashír"), which is in {{wp|Kuril Islands dispute|dispute}} between Russia and Japan, is also included. The [[Battle Zone]] is based on {{wp|Sakhalin}} (Japanese: 樺太 ''Karafuto''; Russian: Сахали́н, "Sakhalín"), a Russian island whose southern part was controlled by Japan between 1905 and 1945.

[[Hisui]] is the historical name of Sinnoh known during its discovery and settlement. The name change could be a reference to the fact that {{wp|Ezo|Ezochi}} (蝦夷地, ''Ezochi'', meaning "Land of the Ezo" or "Ezo-land", Ezo was the historical exonym that the Japanese used to the {{wp|Ainu}} people, the original inhabitants of Hokkaido) was renamed Hokkaido and established as a {{wp|Prefectures of Japan|prefecture}} after the {{wp|Meiji Restoration}}. Therefore, the Hisui region is likely based on Hokkaido in the late {{wp|Edo period|Edo}} and early {{wp|Meiji era|Meiji}} when large-scale development and modernization took place. The design of Hisui is heavily inspired by the physical geography of Hokkaido.

* Prior to [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], [[Lt. Surge]] was known as "The Lightning {{wp|United States|American}}!". In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Pokémon Journal entries state that he "is rumored to have been a pilot while home in America."
* [[Game Freak]]'s offices are present in the [[Celadon Condominiums]], the equivalent location of their former real-world office in {{wp|Carrot Tower}}. Likewise, they have a building in [[Castelia City]], and are found on 22F, the same floor that their former offices were on in Carrot Tower.
* In the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, {{tc|Scientist}} Taylor in the [[Silph Co.]] building 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).
* {{p|Mew}} was originally discovered in the jungles of the {{wp|South America}}n country [[Guyana]]. This is mentioned in logs inside of Cinnabar Island's {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}}.
* In Gold, Silver, {{v2|Crystal}}, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, {{jo|Webster}}, the guard in the [[gate]] north of [[Goldenrod City]], will give the player a {{p|Spearow}} holding mail to deliver. The Spearow is nicknamed {{wp|Kenya}}, the name of a country in {{wp|Africa}}.
* In the original Japanese version of FireRed and LeafGreen, Blaine refers to {{wp|Kyoto}}.
* Upon defeating Fisherman Bronson in the [[Sinnoh]] {{si|Battle Tower}}, he will say, "Why the emperor of fishing? It's an ancient Chinese legend...".
* A {{tc|Guitarist}} that can be battled in [[Generation IV]]'s {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|IV}} mentions that his guitar is actually a {{wp|Shamisen|Japanese instrument}}.
* Among the exhibits of the Nacrene museum, there is an African mask, referring to a place in the real world, in addition to being different from other exhibitions, which are related to the history of the Pokémon.
* {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Beartic}}, {{p|Arctozolt}}, and {{p|Arctovish}}'s names are derived from a real-world location, the {{wp|Arctic}}.
* {{p|Arcanine}}'s {{game|Yellow}}, {{eng|Pokémon Stadium|Stadium}}, [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Gold]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed]], and [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold]] [[Pokédex]] entries state that it is mentioned in {{wp|China|Chinese}} legends.
* {{p|Parasect}}'s Stadium and FireRed Pokédex entries mention that its spores are used in medicine in China.
* {{p|Ponyta}}'s Stadium Pokédex entry mentions that it can clear the Eiffel Tower ({{wp|Tokyo Tower}} in the original Japanese version) in one leap, and its FireRed entry says that it can clear {{wp|Uluru|Ayers Rock}} in one leap.
* {{p|Poliwrath}}'s Gold, [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Ruby, Sapphire]], {{v2|Emerald}}, [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Diamond, Pearl]], {{v2|Platinum}}, HeartGold, [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Black, White]], [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black 2, White 2]] and [[Pokémon X and Y|X]] Pokédex entries mention its ability to swim the {{wp|Pacific Ocean}}. Also, the direction of a Poliwrath's spirals depends on its geographical location. In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], it instead refers to "the ocean".
* {{p|Xatu}}'s Silver, FireRed, and SoulSilver Pokédex entries mention that South Americans say that it can see both the future and past.
* {{p|Delibird}}'s Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald Pokédex entries explain that a Delibird helped a famous explorer reach the top of {{wp|Mt. Everest}}. In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, it instead refers to "world's highest mountain," which is what Mt. Everest is to Earth.
* {{p|Regice}}'s Emerald Pokédex entry mentions {{wp|Antarctica|Antarctic}} ice.
* [[Regional form#Galarian Form|Galarian]] {{p|Meowth}} are implied to have been raised by Vikings in ancient times, and share many similarities with them.
* In ''[[EP009|School of Hard Knocks]]'', {{an|Misty}} fantasizes about {{wp|Paris}} and the {{wp|Eiffel Tower}}.
* In ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', James says that the [[Fuchsia Gym]] looks like a {{wp|Japan|Japanese}} restaurant.
* In the English [[dub]] of ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]'', Melvin says he wanted to make it to {{wp|Las Vegas}}. In the Japanese version, he said that he wanted to make it to {{wp|Broadway}}.
* In ''[[EP066|The Evolution Solution]]'', Meowth says, "Keep digging till you hit China!" to Jessie and James, who were digging for clam shells.
* In the {{wp|William Shakespeare}}-inspired episode ''[[EP100|Wherefore Art Thou, Pokémon?]]'', Misty described the town as like being in "merry old {{wp|England}}".
* In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', Team Rocket are disguised as {{wp|Vikings}}. In the English dub, [[Brock]] says that he didn't know that Vikings still existed and {{Ash}} replies that they "mostly live in {{wp|Minnesota}}". This is a reference to the Minnesota Vikings, a football team in the area.
:*In the {{pmin|Sweden|Swedish dub}} of the movie, Ash says that they come from {{wp|Norway}}, a reference to the Norse Vikings who lived from the 8th to the 11th century.
:* In the {{pmin|Denmark|Danish dub}} of the movie, Ash tells Brock that the Vikings are mostly on trips in {{wp|Sweden}}, again referring to the Norse Vikings, but may also refer to {{wp|Vikingarna (band)|Vikingarna}}, a Swedish {{wp|dansband}}.
:* In the {{pmin|Finland|Finnish dub}} of the movie, Ash quips that Vikings still live in the {{wp|Sipoo}} archipelago, referring to the fact that Sipoo was at the time mostly inhabited by Swedish-speaking Finns (another reference to Norse Vikings).
* At the end of ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', Mewtwo is shown overlooking a "faraway city" that greatly resembles New York City. Buildings similar to the {{wp|Chrysler Building}} and the {{wp|MetLife Building}} are visible in the distance.
* In ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]'', Misty makes a direct reference to the Earth, saying, "The Earth is so pretty." However, she may be referring to the landscape rather than the literal planet.
* In ''[[EP270|Can't Beat the Heat]]'', {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Charizard}} uses {{m|Seismic Toss}}. Normally, a cloudy globe can be seen, but this time the Pacific Ocean and {{wp|Australia}} are prominent. This also happens in ''[[EP059|Volcanic Panic]]'' and the introduction to ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
* In the English dub of ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]'', [[Jessie]] talks about Antarctica, the place where their next assignment is located.
* In ''[[AG145|Pasta La Vista!]]'', an ad in {{an|May}}'s food guidebook mentions "Chinese noodles".
* A map of the Pokémon world seen in ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is On Axew!]]'' centered on Unova features several landmasses resembling Europe and Scandinavia, with some of them either being rotated or flipped.
* In the {{pmin|South Asia|Hindi}} dub of ''[[BW28|Oshawott's Lost Scalchop!]]'', while [[Ash's Oshawott]] was perfecting {{m|Aqua Jet}}, {{an|Cilan}} states "{{tt|जाना था जापान पर पहुंच गए चाइना|We wanted to go to Japan, but ended up in China}}" (lit. ''Jānā thā Japan, par pahunch gaye China''), which refers to the real-world countries of {{wp|Japan}} and {{wp|China}}. The phrase itself can be interpreted roughly as "The aim and the result were different".
* In ''[[BW038|Movie Time! Zorua in "The Legend of the Pokémon Knight"!]]'', the Eiffel Tower and the {{wp|Arc de Triomphe}} were seen on a movie poster.
* In the Hindi dub of ''[[XY030|Mega Revelations!]]'' , {{MTR}} says "{{tt|हम सब जानते हैं कश्मीर से कन्याकुमारी तक|We know everything, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari}}" (lit. ''Ham sab jānte hain, Kashmīr se Kanyākumāri tak''). This is a common Indian saying, roughly translating to "Our knowledge is supreme", which refers to the Indian subcontinent's northernmost region, {{wp|Kashmir}}, and its southernmost city, {{wp|Kanyakumari}}.
* Starting with [[M16|the sixteenth movie]], each Pokémon movie features a recurring globe texture in the intro used to represent the Pokémon world (as opposed to simply featuring randomly-shaped, nondescript landmasses below the clouds): the globe texture features altered landmasses such as one resembling Africa but featuring only the Sahara Desert and the southern half being missing, a large island to the northwest of the Sahara-like landmass, the Arabian Peninsula missing several large chunks, a landmass resembling Australia but rotated 90 degrees clockwise in the middle of a body of water resembling the Indian Ocean, and the northeastern portion of Russia being missing. However, other parts of the globe remain virtually unchanged, like those resembling most of Europe, the Indian subcontinent, Central and Southeast Asia, and Papua New Guinea.
* In ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'', a holographic globe can be seen inside Lysandre Labs. The globe features continents similar to the real Earth, implying that the planet's continents may probably look very similar to that of the real Earth, and that all of the known regions in the Pokémon world may actually in fact be smaller parts of a much larger landmass.
* In the TCG [[Secret Mission (Gym Heroes 118)]] card, the map in the background shows German occupied Poland during World War II: Warsaw is located right above Raichu's right ear, Białystok and Brest-Litowsk behind Lt. Surge, and the Silesian Border between Andreashütte and Festenberg right below Raichu's binoculars. The rivers Weichsel, Narew and Bug are also depicted.
* In the TCG [[Lucky Stadium (Neo Destiny 100)]] card, there is a promotional {{wp|New York City}} print with a {{p|Pichu}} and a {{p|Pikachu}} flying on a {{p|Charizard}} in New York City, with the {{wp|Empire State Building}} visible in the background.
* In the planetarium special ''[[Celestial Debris]]'', a map of the Pokémon world can be seen on a computer monitor. The map texture looks very similar to the one used to represent the planet in later Pokémon films, with three landmasses resembling North America, Europe, and eastern Russia all appearing upside down.

==Real-world people and cultures mentioned==
* {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} are explicitly named after martial artists {{wp|Bruce Lee}} and {{wp|Jackie Chan}}, respectively. In other languages where their names are different, those names are likewise derived from real people.
* {{p|Snorlax}}'s design and Japanese name ''Kabigon'' are derived from [[Game Freak]] programmer [[Kōji Nishino]] and his nickname of "Kirby" (Japanese: カービィ ''Kābī''), which in turn is derived from {{wk|Kirby|the video game character of the same name}}.<ref name=GameInformer>Shea, Brian (October 24, 2019).

* In {{game|Black and White|s}}, six of the [[Seven Sages]] quote proverbs from several Chinese philosophers.

Cynthia makes her first appearance in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, where she meets up with the {{player}} at various points during their journey. She will first meet the player in [[Eterna City]], where she will give them {{HM|01|Cut}} when first met. In Platinum only, she will give the player a {{p|Togepi}} {{pkmn|Egg}} after the player has defeated [[Jupiter]] in the [[Team Galactic Eterna Building]]. At [[Valor Lakefront]], she gives the player the [[Secret Medicine|SecretPotion]] to cure the {{p|Psyduck}} blocking {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}. After the player cures the Psyduck, Cynthia appears again and gives the player the [[Old Charm]] to deliver to [[Professor Carolina|her grandmother]]. Later, she appears at the {{si|Pokémon League}} as the {{pkmn|Champion}}.

In Platinum only, Cynthia also appears at the [[Spear Pillar]] once [[Cyrus]] has been dragged into the [[Distortion World]] by {{p|Giratina}}, and will guide the player through the said world in order to confront Giratina. During the post-game, she will appear at the Celestic Town ruins and tell the player about them.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Cynthia makes an appearance in the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], doing further investigation on the origins of {{p|Arceus}} and the [[creation trio]]. If the player has an Arceus with a [[fateful encounter]] marker or from the [[Hall of Origin]] when they visit the [[Ruins of Alph]], the player will be teleported to the Sinjoh Ruins. Inside a cabin at the ruins, the player will find Cynthia, who will tell the player that Arceus will let them obtain a [[level]] 1 {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, or {{p|Giratina}}. If the player returns to the Sinjoh Ruins with another Arceus (that doesn't have the same origin as the one they used the first time), they will be informed that Cynthia has returned to Sinnoh, and the event will run without her.

In [[Generation V]], Cynthia appears in a house in [[Undella Town]], where she can be battled. She leaves after being defeated for the first time and afterwards reappears during [[Season (mechanic)|spring and summer]]. During spring, she can be rebattled once a day. After defeating her, [[Shauntal]] and [[Caitlin]] can be seen visiting this house in the spring, and, in {{game|Black and White|s|Black and White}} only, [[Lenora]], [[Elesa]], [[Iris]], and [[Skyla]] visit in the summer. In Black and White, she speaks about a {{ga|Lucas|young}} {{ga|Dawn|Trainer}} who defeated her, and mentions that Trainer defeated {{p|Giratina}}, referring to the events of Platinum. In {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2 and White 2}}, Cynthia can also be battled in the [[Champions Tournament]] at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].

In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, Cynthia appears in [[Alola]]'s [[Battle Tree]] as an opponent that the player can battle and subsequently recruit.

Cynthia reappears in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, playing the same role she did in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. She can also be battled against at the {{si|Battle Tower}} in these games.

Cynthia is very interested in mythology and history, and spends her time researching and exploring various sites associated with [[Legendary Pokémon]] of the [[Sinnoh]] region. Her family lives in Celestic Town, although her own hometown was not mentioned. She is implied to have helped [[Professor Rowan]] with his [[Pokédex]] and embarked on an adventure as a child, similar to the player.

===GOTCHA!===

==In the manga==
[[File:Cynthia Looker Adventures.png|thumb|270px|Cynthia in Pokémon Adventures]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Cynthia has loved cycling since her childhood and often races with her {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}}.

====History====
====={{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}=====
Cynthia first appears in ''[[PS347|Ring Around the Roserade II]]''. She is first seen in [[Eterna City]], where she correctly predicts the evolutions of {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}}'s [[Tru]], [[Chimler]], and {{TP|Platinum|Piplup}}. After laughing at Diamond and Pearl's comedy routine, Cynthia offers to give Platinum advice for her upcoming Gym battle against [[Gardenia]]. Once finished, Cynthia attacks the [[Team Galactic Eterna Building]] in order to rescue [[Rad Rickshaw]], who was kidnapped by [[Team Galactic]].

In ''[[PS367|Suffering Psyduck]]'', Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum encounter Cynthia again at the {{si|Pokémon Mansion}}. Cynthia reveals that [[Mr. Backlot]], the owner of the mansion, asked her to investigate a {{p|Psyduck}} that went missing. She takes the three to {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}, where a large group of Psyduck have clustered together, creating a roadblock that prevents anyone from passing through the route. Using a [[Secret Medicine|SecretPotion]], Cynthia cures the Psyduck of their headaches, causing them to disperse and allow travel through Route 210.

Afterward, Cynthia and the trio meet with Cynthia's [[Professor Carolina|grandmother]], who had been forced to stay at the [[Café Cabin]] due to the roadblock preventing her from going back to [[Celestic Town]]. Cynthia decides to have her grandmother take the trio to Celestic Town while she goes off to return one of the Psyduck to its owner. Before leaving, Cynthia lends her {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} to her grandmother for protection.

In ''[[PS406|Halting Honchkrow]]'', Cynthia appears at the [[Team Galactic HQ]] to confront [[Cyrus]], the leader of Team Galactic. Cynthia reveals that her intentions were to take revenge on Cyrus for attacking Celestic Town, her hometown. Despite her best efforts, Cynthia's rage leads to her commanding Garchomp to attack with {{m|Draco Meteor}}, which it had yet to master. The attack heavily damages Cyrus's {{p|Gyarados}}, but fails to actually knock it out. With Garchomp left exhausted after using the move, Cyrus bids Cynthia farewell and heads to the [[Spear Pillar]] to begin his plans.

Cynthia, realizing that Cyrus intends to summon {{adv|Creation trio|Dialga and Palkia}}, decides to follow after him to prevent the two Pokémon from being awakened. As she heads out of the building, Cynthia comes across Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, who had fought Team Galactic to free {{adv|Lake guardians|Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf}} from their clutches. The trio join Cynthia and travel to the Spear Pillar in order to put a stop to Cyrus's ambitions. By the time the group arrived at the Spear Pillar, Cyrus had already successfully summoned Dialga and Palkia and had them fight each other. The clash between the two Legendary Pokémon creates distortions in time and space that slowly begin to engulf the [[Sinnoh]] region. The distortions, combined with her injures, prevent Cynthia from being much help to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum during the battle against Cyrus.

During the battle, an explosion causes Cynthia to drop a scroll containing information on Dialga and Palkia. After translating the scroll, Platinum relays the information to Diamond and Pearl, who successfully free Dialga and Palkia from Cyrus's control. Now free, Dialga and Palkia combine their powers to defeat Cyrus and stop the distortions affecting Sinnoh.

====={{chap|Platinum}}=====
In ''[[PS431|The Final Dimensional Duel I]]'', Cynthia is taken to [[Veilstone City]] by her grandmother. Cynthia is chastised by her grandmother over her defeat at the hands of Cyrus. Cynthia's grandmother reveals she plans on training Cynthia to fully master learning Draco Meteor.

In ''[[PS440|The Final Dimensional Duel X]]'', Cynthia appears in [[Sunyshore City]], where she defeats [[Charon]] and Giratina with a fully-mastered Draco Meteor. When asked how she knew Giratina would appear in Sunyshore, Cynthia reveals that being trapped in the [[Distortion World]] left Giratina with the desire to see the sun. Afterward, Cynthia takes her grandmother to the Café Cabin as thanks for the special training.

====={{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}=====
In ''[[PS460|All About Arceus IX]]'', Cynthia is seen in the [[Johto]] region, where she spots Dialga and Palkia flying towards Sinnoh. She is then approached by [[Palmer]], a [[Frontier Brain]] who also hails from Sinnoh.

Cynthia first appears in ''[[DPA07|Dialga's Secret Keys!]]'', where she rescues [[Hareta]] from a {{tc|Team Galactic Grunt}}. Afterwards, she tells him and [[Mitsumi]] about the legends of Celestic Town and the Legendary Pokémon in Sinnoh.

She reappears in ''[[DPA23|A New Battle Begins!]]'' as a member of the Pokémon League, challenging Mitsumi. Even though Mitsumi gets the upper hand, she decides to resign, as it would make things better for Hareta.

==Trivia==
* In {{v2|Platinum}}, when Cynthia visits the {{player}} at their [[Villa]], she notes how relaxing it is there and that she doesn't want to go home because her house is a complete mess. She goes on to say, "My house? Even the [[region]] is a secret!" This implies that she may live in a region other than [[Sinnoh]].
* After the player heads into the [[Distortion World]] in Platinum, should the player use the portal to head back into Spear Pillar, Cynthia will still be there, while also being in the Distortion World.
* In the [[Generation IV]] games, {{p|Milotic}} is her only Pokémon used that was not introduced during that [[generation]].
* Cynthia is the first female {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[core series]].
** Cynthia is the only woman in the [[Champions Tournament]] at the [[Pokémon World Tournament|PWT]].
* Cynthia's battle theme, "Battle! (Champion)" (known as "Battle! (Cynthia)" or "Battle! (Champion - Sinnoh Version)" in later games), was adapted into the song [[battle gene M]].
* In Platinum, Cynthia's {{p|Togekiss}} has the [[Hustle_(Ability)|Hustle]] ability, despite having no moves that benefit from the ability.
* In Platinum, none of Cynthia's Pokémon share a [[type]], a rare occurrence for Champions.
** In fact, Cynthia's [[Party|team]] has the most diverse typing of any Champion, with 11 unique types out of the maximum 12 ({{t|Ghost}}, {{t|Dark}}, {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Poison}}, {{t|Normal}}, {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Steel}}, {{t|Water}}, {{t|Dragon}}, and {{t|Ground}}).
* In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, Cynthia's [[level]] 88 {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} is the highest-leveled Pokémon owned by a non-player character outside of [[Battle facility|battle facilities]], tied with {{ga|Red's Pikachu}} in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
** However, the level of several NPC's Pokémon in {{4v|Black|White}} are variable and can exceed that of the two, depending on the level of the Pokémon that is [[in-game trade#Generation V|traded]] to them.
* In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, all of Cynthia's Pokémon have the maximum 510 [[EV]]s.
** Additionally, all of her Pokémon have at least one stat with 252 EVs in it.
* In Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, all of Cynthia's Pokémon except her Spiritomb (which has perfect IVs, with 31 in all six stats) have 31 [[IV]]s in five out of their six stats, with the remaining stat having 0 IVs.
* Cynthia shares many similarities with [[Volo]]:
** {{DL|Task|Missions|Mission}} 20, where the player must meet up with Volo, is called The Researcher of Myths, a title by which Cynthia also refers to herself.
** In his final battle, Volo wears a necklace with a teardrop-shaped ornament that resembles the ornament on Cynthia's dress. However, [[Cogita]]'s dress more fully resembles Cynthia's, including the teardrop-shaped ornament, so the significance of the ornament is uncertain.
** In the final battle against him, Volo shares five Pokémon with Cynthia's {{game|Platinum}} team: {{p|Spiritomb}}, {{p|Garchomp}}, {{p|Togekiss}}, {{p|Roserade}}, and {{p|Lucario}}.
** The only Pokémon that Volo does not use from said team is {{p|Milotic}}, as it is not present in Legends: Arceus. He instead uses {{rf|Hisuian}} {{p|Arcanine}}. Interestingly, Gastrodon, which is in Cynthia's {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} team, is available in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.
** Similarly, Volo will always begin the battle by sending out Spiritomb.
** The music that plays before Volo's final battle begins is an arrangement of Cynthia's battle theme. His final battle theme is an arrangement of Cynthia's encounter theme.
** After his final battle, Volo vows to meet {{p|Arceus}}, and in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Cynthia meets Arceus during the [[Sinjoh Ruins]] event.

== X & Y chapter titles ==

The first full-size volume of the X & Y chapter of Pokémon Adventures has been released in English, and the round titles match those received in the mini-volume releases. Can/Should they be readded now, or do we wait for future volume releases to do so? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 11:43, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
:I'll play the "just in case" card and say wait till the respective volumes come out. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 08:59, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
::Figure you would do this which I am prepared to follow as well since I am very patient and can wait it out. I would appreciate it if you left more titles from the invisible notes as much as possible so when I can verify the information it would be easier to deal with. The only slight change is the removal of the question mark in the title of [[PS558]] in the volume version, but unlike the Black and White chapters that were changed that is too minor to consider as a trivia note. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 07:30, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

== Hello ==

Hi, I created [[User:Hikaru Wazana/Template: Pokémon Adventures characters|this template here]] based on what exists for the anime, but I put the characters from Pokémon Adventures. Would that be of any use here? I did it because I noticed that it's a little complicated to find some pages and some "characters of the day" from the manga end up being left out. In a way, this manga also has an extensive chronology just like the anime, so maybe it deserves a template of its own.--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 20:36, 02 February 2022 (UTC)

== Similarities between Arezu and Silver ==

Your statement is wrong for the aforementioned reason : the hairstyle, aka the swept bangs, is shared with Silver but not with Mars. I was just stating a fact, and besides nothing in game tells she's related to Mars either, meaning nothing rules out the possibility that she could even be a common ancestor to those two characters, Hisui and the ancient version of Johto aren't that far after all. ---- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 07:44, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

:Hello, it has been two weeks since I didn't get a reply from my answer. I would appreciate if I get a reply from this, thanks. ---- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 11:57, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
::I felt one was unnecessary, but if you really want it. The answer is still no. Arezu has a shared name origin, makes a blatant nod to her descendant being a member of Team Galactic, and even uses Bronzor and Purugly in battle. These are clear references to Mars, yet as far as I can recall, nothing connects her to Silver. If a similar hairstyle was all it took to be an ancestor, we might as well list everyone with similar haircuts, like Roark. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 23:31, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

:::Yeah the common ancestry with Roark is still a possibility due to the similar haircut. Yes, even a similar haircut can connect two characters in Legends Arceus, and besides, Arezu and Silver have the same outfit color : dark blue. So, you're still wrong about the fact they have nothing in common. -- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 16:02, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

You're strawmaning, the argument was not "they have nothing in common" but "they do not have enough in common". Saying that even a haircut is enough is oversimplifying. [[User:MissDelibirda|MissDelibirda]] ([[User talk:MissDelibirda|talk]]) 19:06, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

:Well the wiki pages talk about resemblances between an ancestor and a descendant without going into details, and appearances are enough of a common thing when said that way. -- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 23:18, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Would that be of any use here? I did it because I noticed that it's a little complicated to find some pages and some "characters of the day" from the manga end up being left out. In a way, this manga also has an extensive chronology just like the anime, so maybe it deserves a template of its own.--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 20:36, 02 February 2022 (UTC)

== Similarities between Arezu and Silver ==

Your statement is wrong for the aforementioned reason : the hairstyle, aka the swept bangs, is shared with Silver but not with Mars. I was just stating a fact, and besides nothing in game tells she's related to Mars either, meaning nothing rules out the possibility that she could even be a common ancestor to those two characters, Hisui and the ancient version of Johto aren't that far after all. ---- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 07:44, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

:Hello, it has been two weeks since I didn't get a reply from my answer. I would appreciate if I get a reply from this, thanks. ---- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 11:57, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
::I felt one was unnecessary, but if you really want it. The answer is still no. Arezu has a shared name origin, makes a blatant nod to her descendant being a member of Team Galactic, and even uses Bronzor and Purugly in battle. These are clear references to Mars, yet as far as I can recall, nothing connects her to Silver. If a similar hairstyle was all it took to be an ancestor, we might as well list everyone with similar haircuts, like Roark. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 23:31, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

:::Yeah the common ancestry with Roark is still a possibility due to the similar haircut. -- [[User talk:Braviapert|Bravi]][[Special:Contributions/Braviapert|apert]] 16:02, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

== Casey Raboot ==

Hey. I was wondering if you agree that now is a good time to move [[User:Rahl/Casey's Raboot]] since it got a nickname.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 11:22, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Paralysis (status condition)

2022-08-20T00:02:42Z

Braviapert: /* Effect */ correct link

{{incomplete|needs=Gen IV and V effect, Non-game info}}
[[File:Ash Pikachu Static.png|thumb|250px|{{AP|Pikachu}} paralyzing {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
The '''paralysis''' condition (PAR) (Japanese: '''まひ''' ''Paralysis''), also called '''paralyze''' in the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], causes a Pokémon to be unable to [[move|attack]] ("fully paralyzed") a quarter of the time. Additionally, its {{stat|Speed}} is reduced to 50% of its previous value (25% prior to [[Generation VII]]). Many moves that cause paralysis are {{type|Electric}}. {{type|Ground}} Pokémon can be paralyzed, but not by [[Electric (type)|Electric-type]] moves or by the [[Battle Arcade]]. In Generation V, Pokémon glow yellow when afflicted with paralysis, and in Generation V and VIII their animations become slower.

==Effect==
In general, a paralyzed Pokémon runs a 25% risk of losing their turn due to full paralysis. In addition, the afflicted Pokémon's {{stat|Speed}} is decreased. The specifics work differently between [[generation]]s.

===Generation I===
The {{stat|Speed}} of a paralyzed Pokémon is decreased by 75%. In the handheld games, this is subject to the [[List of battle glitches (Generation I)#Stat modification errors|stat modifications glitch]].

===Generation II===
If a paralyzed Pokémon {{m|Baton Pass}}ed to another paralyzed Pokémon, the second one would not have its Speed reduced until a move which affected the Speed stat modifier, recalculating its Speed, was used. In [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], however, the new Pokémon's Speed is reduced if the last Speed-modifying attack used was one that raised Speed. It will not be reduced if the new Pokémon uses a Speed-modifying attack.

In Pokémon Stadium 2, much like in subsequent generations, a short animation plays when a Pokémon cannot move due to full paralysis, albeit its visuals are borrowed from {{m|Spark}}.

===Generations III and IV===
An animation is shown now when a Pokémon is fully paralyzed (in contrast to previous generations, where there was only an animation when paralysis was inflicted). The text is also different when fully paralyzed. Instead of saying "X is fully paralyzed!" it will say "X is paralyzed! It can't move!"

In Generation IV, {{a|Magic Guard}} prevents from being fully paralyzed.

===Generation V===
Pokémon now glow yellow and their animation slows down when inflicted with paralysis.

Magic Guard no longer prevents from being fully paralyzed.

===Generation VI===
Electric-type Pokémon are now immune to paralysis.

===Generation VII onward===
The {{stat|Speed}} of a paralyzed Pokémon is decreased by 50% (as opposed to 75%).

===Other causes===
A Pokémon has a 30% chance of being paralyzed after making [[contact]] with a Pokémon with the {{a|Static}} Ability, and a 10% chance after making contact with a Pokémon with {{a|Effect Spore}}. A Pokémon can also become paralyzed if it directly paralyzes a Pokémon with the {{a|Synchronize}} Ability. If a Gorging Form {{p|Cramorant}} is hit by an attack, its {{a|Gulp Missile}} will cause the opponent to get paralyzed.

==Curing==
Paralysis can be cured with the use of a [[Paralyze Heal]] or a [[Cheri Berry]] ([[PRZCureBerry]] in [[Generation II]]). In addition, like all other major [[status condition]]s, it can be cured by the items [[Full Heal]], [[Rage Candy Bar]], [[Lava Cookie]], [[Old Gateau]], [[Casteliacone]], [[Lumiose Galette]], [[Shalour Sable]], [[Big Malasada]], [[Full Restore]], [[Heal Powder]], [[Lum Berry]] ([[MiracleBerry]] in Generation II), and [[Sacred Ash]].

The moves {{m|Refresh}} and {{m|Rest}} remove the paralysis from the user, while {{m|Heal Bell}} (unless the Pokémon has Soundproof as their Ability in Generation III and IV) and {{m|Aromatherapy}} remove it from all Pokémon in the user's party. In addition, the move {{m|Psycho Shift}} shifts the paralysis onto its target (thereby healing the user). Furthermore, if its target is paralyzed, {{m|Smelling Salts}} will cure the paralysis in addition to becoming more powerful. In Generation I only, using {{m|Haze}} cures the opponent from paralysis.

Pokémon with {{a|Natural Cure}} will be cured upon switching out, those with the {{a|Hydration}} Ability will be cured whilst it is {{weather|rain}}ing. Pokémon with {{a|Shed Skin}} have a 30% chance of being cured every turn, and Pokémon with {{a|Healer}} have a 1/3 chance of curing their allies.

==Prevention==
Starting in [[Generation VI]], {{type|Electric}} Pokémon are immune to being paralyzed. However, if a Pokémon's Electric type is changed through a {{cat|Moves that change a Pokémon's type|type-changing move}} like {{m|Soak}}, it is then paralyzed and switched out (resetting to the Electric type), the paralysis will remain.

Pokémon with the Abilities {{a|Limber}} and {{a|Comatose}} are completely immune to being paralyzed. Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Leaf Guard}} will be protected from status conditions in {{weather|harsh sunlight}}. In Generation IV only, the Ability {{a|Magic Guard}} will prevent Pokémon from being fully paralyzed; however, it does not prevent the Speed reduction.

The moves {{m|Safeguard}} and {{m|Misty Terrain}} (for [[grounded]] Pokémon) will protect the party from status conditions for five turns. A Pokémon behind a {{m|substitute}} cannot be paralyzed, except due to {{a|Synchronize}}.

==Advantages==
While paralysis, like all major status conditions, has primarily negative effects, it can be advantageous to have it in certain conditions. Pokémon with {{a|Guts}}, {{a|Marvel Scale}}, and {{a|Quick Feet}} will have their {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Defense}}, and {{stat|Speed}} increased, respectively, when paralyzed, {{status|poison}}ed, or {{status|burn}}ed. In addition, the base power of {{m|Facade}} is doubled (from 70 to 140) when inflicted with any of these three status conditions.

==Other game effects==
In {{game|Emerald}}, when the player is inside the [[Battle Pyramid]], the types of Pokémon encountered on each floor follow a set of categories; one of these categories is Pokémon with moves that paralyze.

==In the spin-off games==
==={{pkmn|Mystery Dungeon series}}===

Paralyzed Pokémon cannot use moves or regular attack, but they can still throw items. Their Movement Speed is reduced by one stage. Paralysis wears off after a few turns. 

==={{pkmn|Rumble series}}===

Paralysis ('''Paralyzed''' when inflicted in-game) is a negative status in the {{pkmn|Rumble series}}. A Pokémon affected by paralysis is unable to move or use any moves for roughly five seconds. However, if the affected Pokémon is controlled by a player, inputting movement or button commands will make the effect wear off faster, with a minimum duration of about two seconds. Paralyzed Pokémon shake in place with their body surrounded by yellow lightning-bolt-shaped particles.

No types are immune to paralysis, but Pokémon with the Adept, Electric Boost, or Steady [[Special Traits]] cannot be paralyzed, and those with the Reflector Trait will cause the user of the paralysis-inflicting move to become paralyzed instead if hit by one.

===Pokémon Conquest===
As in the main series, in [[Pokémon Conquest]], paralysis lowers the Pokémon's Speed, and there is a 25% chance at the start of each turn for the Pokémon to be fully paralyzed and unable to act, though their Warrior may still use items and abilities. Because Pokémon Conquest uses Speed to determine the accuracy of attacks, Pokémon inflicted with paralysis also suffer a heavy penalty to their accuracy and evasion. Paralysis can be inflicted by abilities, attacks, and Electro Nodes in [[Dragnor]]. It can be cured with [[Warrior Skill]]s, items, or ending the Pokémon's turn in a hot spring, water bucket, or next to one of Dragnor's Revival Nodes.

===Pokémon Shuffle===
In [[Pokémon Shuffle]], a paralyzed Pokémon cannot use any {{DL|Pokémon Shuffle|disruptions}} and its disruption countdown is paused.

Paralysis can be inflicted by Pokémon with the Dragon Shriek, Lightning, Paralyze, Quake, or Shock Attack [[Skill]]s. The Paralysis Combo Skill also boosts damage against paralyzed foes.

{{t|Flying}}, {{t|Poison}}, {{t|Ghost}}, {{t|Steel}}, {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Psychic}}, {{t|Dragon}}, and {{t|Fairy}}-type Pokémon are immune to paralysis.
