'''Wartortle''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カメール''' ''Kameil'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Squirtle}} starting at [[level]] 16 and evolves into {{p|Blastoise}} starting at level 36.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
Wartortle is a bipedal, indigo-blue Pokémon similar to a turtle. It has brown eyes, a dark blue streak on each cheek, and two sharp teeth protruding from its upper jaw. It has three clawed fingers and pointed toes. Bluish white fur covers its long ears and tail. A brown shell with a pale yellow underside encases its body. A thick, white rim separates the upper and lower halves of the shell. As Wartortle grows old, its tail fur will darken, and it may have algae growing on its shell. The shell may also carry scars from past battles.<br />
<br />
To maintain balance while swimming at high speeds, Wartortle moves its furry ears and tail. It can use the fur to store air for extended underwater diving. Its tail is a popular symbol of longevity, making it popular with the elderly. It hides in water when hunting and emerges to surprise its prey. [[EP060|The anime has shown]] that Wartortle can be found living in colonies on islands, but its preferred habitat seems to be {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's Edge Pokémon|freshwater ponds and lakes}}.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
[[File:008Wartortle OS anime.png|thumb|150px|right|Anime promotional art depicting Wartortle with the same color on its ears and its face]]<br />
*Even though Wartortle's ears are depicted lighter than its face in the official Sugimori stock art and most of its game sprites, the official promotional pictures usually have the ears the same color as its face.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Its design appears to be a stylized {{wp|sea turtle}} with features of {{wp|tortoise}}s. Its feathery tail is a reference to Japanese legends of the minogame (蓑亀), a turtle which lived for 10,000 years and grew a tail made of seaweed. The use of its tail to store oxygen seems to be a reference to certain turtles that breathe through their cloaca, placed near the tail.<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Wartortle's name is a combination of ''war'' or ''warrior'', ''{{wp|tortoise}}'', and ''{{wp|turtle}}''. <br />
<br />
Kameil comes from the Japanese word 亀 ''kame'' (tortoise/turtle) and may be a combination of 亀 ''kame'' and テール ''tail''. It is also a corruption of 噛める ''kameru'' (to be able to bite).<br />

<div>{{incomplete|needs=Join Avenue Beauty Salon details}}<br />
'''Friendship''' (Japanese: '''なつき{{tt|度|ど}}''' ''degree of emotional attachment''), also often referred to by fans as '''happiness''', is a measurement of how much a Pokémon loves its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and enjoys being in their care. Friendship affects the [[evolution]] of {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by friendship|certain Pokémon}}, the power of {{m|Return}} and {{m|Frustration}}, and the availability of a few in-game items and Ribbons. Certain events increase a Pokémon's friendship (gaining a level, walking 256 steps) or decrease it (fainting, using [[herbal medicine]]).<br />
<br />
Friendship was introduced in {{game|Yellow}} for the player's starting Pikachu only, and expanded to cover all Pokémon in [[Generation II]].<br />
<br />
==Generation I==<br />
A prototype of the friendship system used by later games was introduced in {{game|Yellow}}, the last [[main series]] game of [[Generation I]]. Like the later system, its value ranged between 0 and 255 inclusive; however, this value was only applied to the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} the player [[starter Pokémon|started with]].<br />
[[File:PikachuY-Happy.png|thumb|200px|right|Pikachu with high friendship]]<br />
Unlike later games, since Pikachu is outside of its [[Poké Ball]], the {{player}} can turn and look at it at any time as it follows him around the overworld. Pikachu will then indicate its friendship in a small window that appears. At maximum friendship, Pikachu will jump up and down before the window appears.<br />
<br />
Like later games, Pikachu's friendship will rise when it gains a level. If its Trainer uses an item on Pikachu, its friendship will also rise, even if it is an item that has no effect on Pikachu (such as a [[Potion]] at full HP). In this manner, Pikachu is much easier to make happy than Pokémon in future generations.<br />
<br />
Pikachu's friendship drops if it is put into [[Bill's PC]] or faints. Trading it to another game or entering [[Glitch City]] will reset its friendship to 0<!--70?-->.<br />
<br />
Friendship is not recorded for any other Pokémon in Generation I, and the friendship of Pikachu does not affect much: the only real effect it has is whether or not [[Melanie]] will give {{p|Bulbasaur}} away in [[Cerulean City]], which she will only do if Pikachu's friendship is 147 or higher.<br />

<br />
==Generation II==<br />
In [[Generation II]], the friendship system became fully implemented, building on the system used in Yellow by tracking the friendship of every Pokémon owned by the Trainer. Like before, it is a single byte with a value between 0 and 255.<br />
<br />
Friendship is set when a Pokémon is brought under a Trainer's control: that is, it is 70 when a Pokémon is captured from the wild, and reset to 70 when a Pokémon is traded from another game. When a Pokémon is hatched from an {{pkmn|Egg}}, its value is set to 120. If a Pokémon is captured in a {{ball|Friend}}, rather than any other kind, its friendship is set to 200 instead.<br />
<br />
Another function was given to friendship in Generation II: the evolution of certain Pokémon, which has continued until the present as each generation introduces new Pokémon which evolve through friendship. Friendship-based evolutions occur when a Pokémon's friendship is 220 or higher.<br />
<br />
Unlike in Generation I, friendship will not increase if an item that cannot be used is used on a Pokémon: for example, using an [[HP Up]] on a {{p|Quilava}} which already has the maximum HP it can have will not result in raised friendship.<br />

<br />
However, some things, though frequently reported, aren't part of the Generation II modifier. The following are actions that do not affect a Pokémon's friendship, either positively or negatively:<br />
* Putting a Pokémon in Bill's PC<br />
* Healing a Pokémon when weak and injured<br />
* Giving a Pokémon a hold item<br />
* Evolving a Pokémon. (Be it through Level-up, hold item, or evolutionary stone)<br />
* Using a Pokémon in battles<br />
* Winning battles with a Pokémon<br />
* Letting a Pokémon's HP fall to critical status<br />
* Letting the player's Pokémon get a status condition like Paralysis<br />
* Walking when the player's Pokémon has a status condition<br />
<br />
Friendship can be checked using the [[Goldenrod City#Friendship checker|friendship checker]] in [[Goldenrod City]].<br />
<br />
Friendship is also called '''tame''' in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]].<br />
<br />
==Generation III==<br />
Friendship in [[Generation III]] works much the same as before, with two additional friendship-boosting mechanics. If a Pokémon is caught in a {{ball|Luxury}} or is holding a {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}}, all friendship-raising events will increase the Pokémon's friendship by one point more; friendship-lowering events are not affected. These effects stack on each other, meaning a Pokémon in a Luxury Ball holding a Soothe Bell gets two additional points per event.<br />
<br />
Pokémon now have a [[List of Pokémon by base friendship|base friendship]] per species; however, most catchable Pokémon have the standard 70 points as their starting level.<br />

<!--Do the number of steps and the probability need further study? This generation has a different step count that Gen II (or at the least a different stated step count), but the same as Gen IV and V which need work.--><br />
<br />
===Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen===<br />
In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the player can know the friendship level of his/her Pokémon through the scene which appears after the player uses an item on the Pokémon. The Pokémon will either move towards the screen or not move at all. If the Pokémon does not move, then its friendship level is neutral. The friendship level of the Pokémon can be indicated by looking at how near the Pokémon goes to the player. The nearer the Pokémon moves towards the screen the higher its friendship level and the more it likes its Trainer. After grooming a Pokémon, Daisy will also tell the player how friendly the Pokémon in the first slot of their party is towards them.<br />
<br />
==Generation IV==<br />
[[File:Friendship Checker.png|thumb|200px|right|[[Pokétch]] Friendship Checker app with a {{p|Drifblim}} at maximum friendship.]]<br />
Friendship in [[Generation IV]] is much the same as it is in [[Generation III]], though the conditions are altered slightly. The Luxury Ball now causes a Pokémon to gain a separate boost in friendship when they level up and while walking compared to Pokémon in other Balls.<br />
<br />
[[Dr. Footstep]], the sole resident of the Footstep House on {{rt|213|Sinnoh}}, will give a Pokémon with maximum friendship a [[Ribbon]].<br />
<br />
In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the player can gauge their Pokémon's friendship based on the phrase that appears when they are spoken to outside of their Poké Ball.<br />
<br />
{{Daisy}} makes a return in HeartGold and SoulSilver. Visiting her in Pallet Town will let her groom one of the player's Pokémon between 15:00 and 16:00 every day, increasing its friendship.<br />
<br />
The [[Haircut brothers]] also make a return in HeartGold and SoulSilver. The player can visit them on any day of the week besides Monday to give one of their Pokémon a boost in friendship.<br />
<br />
In the table below, the first and second values separated by slashes show the changes for most Poké Balls and {{ball|Luxury}}s, respectively. Note that holding a {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}} will apply a multiplier of 1.5 (rounding down) to only '''positive''' changes and that use of Luxury Balls will ''not'' reduce the effects of negative changes.<br />

† These include [[Pomeg Berry]], [[Kelpsy Berry]], [[Qualot Berry]], [[Hondew Berry]], [[Grepa Berry]], and [[Tamato Berry]] (No. 21-26).<br />
<br />
==Generation V==<br />
Friendship is very much the same in Generation V as it was in Generation IV. As far as it has been tested, friendship conditions and related items are much the same, with the main differences being in what NPCs will rate and measure friendship. A lady in [[Nacrene City]] will rate the friendship of the player's Pokémon. Another lady, in the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] located in [[Icirrus City]] will also rate the friendship of the player's Pokémon. A third lady in [[Castelia City]] will massage one of the player's Pokémon per day, raising its friendship. She is located in the first building on the left side of {{DL|Castelia City|Castelia Street}}.<br />
<br />
The friendship statistics appear to have not changed much since Generation IV. Note that holding a {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}} will still apply a multiplier of 1.5 (rounding down) to only '''positive''' changes and that use of {{ball|Luxury}}s will ''not'' reduce the effects of negative changes.<br />

==Friendship raters==<br />
Friendship raters are [[Non-player character|NPC]]s that will indicate the friendship of the first Pokémon in the player's party when spoken to. Some will give away certain items depending on the friendship, while others just tell the player how happy the Pokémon is.<br />
<br />
===Locations===<br />
* [[Goldenrod City]]: A woman in the house northeast of the Bike Shop will rate a Pokémon's friendship.<br />
* [[Goldenrod Department Store]]: On {{DL|Days of the week|Sunday}}s only, a woman at the TM Corner, on the fifth floor, gives away either {{TM|27|Return}} (friendship above 150) or {{TM|21|Frustration}} (friendship below 100).<br />
* [[Verdanturf Town]]: A woman in the house in the south-western part of town will rate a Pokémon's friendship.<br />
* [[Pacifidlog Town]]: Once every week, a man gives away either {{TM|27|Return}} (friendship above 150) or {{TM|21|Frustration}} (friendship below 100).<br />
* [[Pallet Town]]: At {{ga|Blue}}'s house, [[Daisy Oak|Daisy]] will rate a Pokémon's friendship.{{sup/3|FRLG}}<br />
* [[Hearthome City]]: An NPC rates friendship in the [[Pokémon Fan Club]].<br />
* {{rt|213|Sinnoh}}: At the Footstep House, [[Dr. Footstep]] will rate a Pokémon's friendship, albeit in a roundabout way which differs among Pokémon species.<br />
* [[Eterna City]]: A woman who gives the player the [[Pokétch]] App, {{DL|Pokétch|Friendship Checker}}, will rate the friendship of the player's Pokémon.<br />
* [[Icirrus City]]: At the [[Pokémon Fan Club]], a member there will rate a Pokémon's friendship.<br />
* [[Nacrene City]]: A woman in the building to the right of the Pokémon Center with a {{p|Cottonee}}{{sup/5|B}}/{{p|Petilil}}{{sup/5|W}} will rate a Pokémon's friendship.<br />
<br />
In addition, the [[Pokétch]]'s {{DL|Pokétch|Friendship Checker}} App will display a Pokémon's friendship on a scale of one to two small or big hearts. If the Pokémon has a low friendship value, then it will move away from the point where the [[Nintendo DS]] screen is touched.<br />
<br />
Finally, in {{game|Black and White|s|4=2}}, once the player has registered [[Bianca]] in the [[Xtransceiver]], they may call her at any time to evaluate the friendship of any Pokémon in their current party.<br />
<br />

While there is no person that rates friendship, when viewing a table with Pokémon, it's listed there (with other things such as type, ID number or item), in levels (albeit named '''tame''' as mentioned above). Pokémon that were always in Generation I will have ''Not quite'', even if it's [[Red's Pikachu (game)|a Pokémon who had friendship tracked]].<br />

==In spin-off games==<br />
===Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia===<br />
[[File:Happy Mood SoA.png|frame|Two Pokémon in a Happy Mood]]<br />
Friendship also has an effect in the second Ranger game. [[Partner Pokémon]] can have the condition of ''Fine'', ''Happy'', or ''Very Happy''. When it is in a Happy Mood<!--it's a term-->, black musical notes appear to come out of it. Multicolored musical notes come out when it is Very Happy. This may happen whether or not it is with the player. This state of mind increases the speed the Partner Gauge fills up due to more Partner Energy being given.<br />

'''Brendan''' (Japanese: '''ユウキ''' ''Yūki'') is the male choice for the [[player character]] in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, and also serves as the [[rival]] in the same games if the player chooses to play as the {{ga|May|female character}}.<br />
<br />
==In the games==<br />
===Role===<br />
If Brendan is selected as the player character he starts his journey moving from his home in Johto to his new home in the town of Littleroot in Hoenn. After saving Prof. Birch from a wild Pokémon, he is given one of the three starters of the Hoenn region. Brendan develops a close bond with {{ga|May}}, and eventually [[Wally]], who both act as his rivals. Brendan goes on to gather the eight badges of Hoenn, stop the plans of [[Team Aqua]]{{sup|Sa}}{{sup|E}}/[[Team Magma]]{{sup|Ru}}{{sup|E}} and conquer the Pokémon League all before going off to face the Battle Frontier (in Emerald).<br />
<br />
If Brendan is not selected as the player, he is helping his dad finish the Hoenn [[Pokédex]] and becoming a Pokémon professor. He is also the player's rival and friend. Unlike other [[rival]]s (except for {{ga|May}} when playing as Brendan), he gives up being a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, making them the only rivals unavailable for battle after defeating the [[Elite Four]]. Additionally, they both are the only ones to not [[evolution|evolve]] their [[starter Pokémon]] into its final form.<br />

===Names===<br />
While the player can name this character as is the case with all player characters, there are several default names provided for him. In {{v2|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, he has four default names, including three shared between the two versions. The two variant names between games collaborates with the theme of the plot, referring to "land" and "sea" respectively. <br />
<br />
In the English version, these names are '''Land'''on and '''Sea'''n; in the Japanese version, リクヤ '''''Riku'''ya'' and カイト '''''Kai'''to'' (陸 ''riku'' means land and 海 ''kai'' means sea). This is also the case in other languages. Additionally, in the English version, two of the shared names—Terry and Seth—seem to be influenced by the same theme.<br />
<br />
In all translated versions of {{v2|Emerald}}, Brendan has the same default names as in Pokémon Ruby, as well as 16 additional names which don't seem to hold any significance. Consequently, there is no default name that relates to "sea" in Emerald. Notably, as the player character, the name Brendan (or its other language counterparts) is never offered as a default name in any version.<br />
<br />
As a rival, Brendan's name is static.<br />
<br />
The full list of default names for Brendan as the male playable character in the games are as follows:<br />

==Counterparts==<br />
===In the anime===<br />
[[Image:Brendan_Swampert.png|thumb|220px|Brendan's anime appearance]]<br />
Brendan's only anime appearances are small cameos in the movies, appearing in the openings of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'' and ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. Brendan seems to be a competitive battler, as his cameos suggest he spends time in Battle Towers. In all of his appearances, he has appeared with his Ruby and Sapphire outfit.<br />
<br />
Like in the games, he has the [[starter Pokémon]] that weakens {{an|May}}'s. It is unknown if his relatives are the same as that of the games, where, as May is [[Norman]]'s daughter (as the player is), Brendan would be [[Professor Birch]]'s son. <br />
<br />
====Pokémon==== <br />
The following are Brendan's known Pokémon in the anime:<br />

<br />
===In the manga===<br />
There are three different manga counterparts to Brendan: {{adv|Ruby}} from the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, {{OBP|Ruby|Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire}} from the [[Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire]] manga, and [[Rald]] from the [[Pokémon Battle Frontier]] manga.<br />
<br />
===In the TFG===<br />
{{TFG ID|Next Quest|Brendan|41}}, based on a blue recolor of this character's usual clothes, appears as a common Trainer figure in {{TFG|Next Quest}}, the launch set of the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]]. There is also an unreleased figurine based on him from the cancelled {{TFG|Groundbreakers}} expansion, named {{TFG ID|Groundbreakers|Landon|41}} (one of the default names for him in Pokémon Ruby and Emerald), who wears the same outfit as Brendan does in Ruby and Sapphire.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], {{p|Pikachu}} wears Brendan's Emerald headband as an alternate costume. Also, the [[Red (game)#In the Super Smash Bros. series|Pokémon Trainer]] has an alternate costume with a similar color scheme as Brendan's Emerald outfit.<br />
*He and {{ga|May}} are the only set of player characters who have a chance to speak with both a mother and a father in the games.<br />

'''Bill''' (Japanese: '''ソネザキマサキ''' ''Masaki Sonezaki'') is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} Researcher, widely regarded as an expert in many fields. He has made many appearances in the games. Bill is most commonly found in his [[Sea Cottage]], which is north of [[Cerulean City]] at the end of {{rt|25|Kanto}}. He is most notable for his first appearance in the [[Generation I]] games {{4v2|Red|Green|Blue|Yellow}} versions and for his [[Pokémon Storage System]] that has been pertinent in the entire main series.<br />
<br />
==In the games==<br />
Bill is the talented and famous inventor. He invented the original Pokémon Storage System and [[Time Capsule]].<br />
<br />
People, including himself, call him a PokéManiac because of his large collection of both common and rare Pokémon. The first one he caught was an {{p|Abra}}; however, his favorite Pokémon are {{p|Eevee}} and its [[Eeveelution|evolutions]]. Bill also gives a free Eevee to {{ga|Ethan}}/{{ga|Kris}}/Lyra in [[Generation II]] and its remakes and another one to [[Bebe]] in [[Generation IV]], which is later given to {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}}.<br />
<br />
Bill also has several friends that share his interests in computer technology. One of them is [[Celio]], his old friend from {{OBP|One Island|town}} in the [[Sevii Islands]]. He is also close with [[Lanette]] and [[Bebe]], the storage system developers of [[Hoenn]] and [[Sinnoh]], respectively.<br />
<br />
Bill also has some fans, like {{tc|Poké Maniac|PokéManiac}} Brent of [[Generation II]] who calls the player with information about him. Most of his calls are trivia about Bill himself and his family, such as the fact that Bill's mother used to be a [[Kimono Girl]] and that Bill's younger sister can't wink. Brent also revealed the fact that Bill is lactose-intolerant, which was also stated by Celio in [[Generation III]].<br />
<br />
Bill has been shown to have a large family. In [[Fuchsia City]] live his adult sister and grandpa, who in [[Generation II]] watches over Bill's cottage on Route 25 while he is visiting the rest of his family in [[Goldenrod City]].<br />
<br />
In the Japanese versions of the games, Bill speaks in Kansai Dialect like most [[Goldenrod City]] natives.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation I]]===<br />
In {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, Bill can be found at the [[Cerulean Cape]], initially performing an experiment on Pokémon teleportation. However, Bill accidentally becomes combined with the body of a {{p|Clefairy}} and requires the player's help to fix the problem. After things are back in order, he speaks about his Pokémon Storage System and what was formerly on the PC menu as "Someone's PC" will change to "Bill's PC." He will also give away an {{DL|List of key items in Generation I|S.S. Ticket}} so that the player can board the [[S.S. Anne]]. He gives the player the ticket as a gift for changing him back into a human, and also claims that the rich crowd of the S.S. Anne isn't his type. If the player exits Bill's house and goes back in, they can check his computer for information on {{p|Eevee}} and its three [[Evolutionary stone|stone]] evolutions, his favorite Pokémon.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation II]]===<br />
In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, Bill is visiting his family in [[Goldenrod City]]. After he gets the [[Time Capsule]] up and running in [[Ecruteak City]], players can visit him at his parents' house in Goldenrod and receive an {{p|Eevee}}. His sister will give the player Bill's number so they can check the storage system.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation III]]===<br />
====Hoenn====<br />
While visiting [[Lanette]] in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, players can check one of her computers to find an E-mail from Bill. The English translation of the E-mail makes it seem as if Bill is crediting Lanette for upgrading his system, whereas the Japanese text clearly establishes that he and Lanette are co-developers of the original system.<br />
<br />
English Letter:<br />
:"''... ... ... ... ... ... ...<br />
:''Your storage system <br />
:''offers more convenience than mine.<br />
:''It has a lot of user friendly features that<br />
:''make it fun and useful too. It makes me<br />
:''proud that I played a part in its development.<br />
:''Here's hoping that you'll continue<br />
:''research in Storage Systems.<br />
:''From <sc>Bill</sc><br />
:''... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..."<br />
<br />

[[File:SeaBill.png|thumb|240px||right|Bill as a {{p|Clefairy}} in the Sea Cottage]]<br />
In [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions]], Bill is in the same area as in the original games. However, he also appears on [[Cinnabar Island]] asking for help in the [[Sevii Islands]] shortly after [[Blaine]] is defeated. While on [[Knot Island]], he introduces the player to [[Celio]].<br />
<br />

<br />
===[[Generation IV]]===<br />
====Sinnoh====<br />
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, [[Bebe]] mentions that Bill invented the original PC storage system, and that she tinkered with it to make it easier to use. Upon giving the player an {{p|Eevee}}, Bebe refers to Bill as a friend from Johto to whom the Eevee previously belonged.<br />
====Johto and Kanto====<br />
Bill appears in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} in the same capacity as he did in Generation II. He will give the player an {{p|Eevee}} if he is visited at his parents' house in Goldenrod.<br />

[[File:Bill anime.png|thumb|200px|Bill talking about the world of Pokémon]]<br />
{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} met Bill at his lighthouse in ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]''.<br />
<br />
Bill had previously been trapped in a {{p|Kabuto}} costume for what he claims to have been hours (in the dub only; the original didn't state how long he had been in the costume) until Ash finally comes to press the release button for him. Afterwards, Bill fulfills a request made by Professor Oak to give Ash and his friends a lesson on the basics of Pokémon, during which Bill shares the idea that there may be many more than just 150 species of Pokémon. The remainder of his appearance is spent focused on explaining to Ash and company his recent project, involving a {{p|Dragonite|mysterious Pokémon}} whose cry can be heard across the sea.<br />

As it came closer to the lighthouse, [[Team Rocket]] was shown scaling the cliff, and upon seeing the {{pkmn2|giant}} Dragonite, they began launching a barrage of missiles at it. This angered Dragonite, and it smashed the top of the lighthouse and began to walk away. Bill called out at it to stay, but to no avail. <br />
In the morning, Bill seemed to be at peace with the fact that he didn't get to learn more about the Pokémon and was simply grateful he got to see it at all. With another life lesson from Bill, the heroes said goodbye and continued on their journey. <br />

==In the manga==<br />
Bill makes appearances in several manga, including, [[How I Became a Pokémon Card]], [[Pokémon Adventures]], [[Pokémon Zensho]], and [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]].<br />
<br />
===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===<br />
[[File:Bill EToP.png|thumb|right|Bill in the Electric Tale of Pikachu]]<br />
Bill appears in the third chapter of The Electric Tale of Pikachu, ''[[ET03|Clefairy Tale]]''. He works with [[Professor Oak]] researching a colony of {{p|Clefairy}} at [[Mt. Moon]]. He was the one to discover the colony of Clefairy and has befriended many of them. Together with Professor Oak and {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}}, he assists the Clefairy with an evolution ceremony.<br />
<br />
In the same chapter, Bill also reveals parts of his past to Ash. In the beginning, Bill only became a Pokémon Trainer because he didn't like school and wanted to take a leave of absence, but as time went on, he discovered that he deeply cared for his Pokémon. He decided to become a Pokémon researcher after witnessing his {{p|Ivysaur}} evolving into {{p|Venusaur}}.<br />
<br />

===In the How I Became a Pokémon Card manga===<br />
In the [[PW01|first chapter]] of [[How I Became a Pokémon Card]], a younger Bill rescues a lost {{p|Dratini}} from an angry crowd and it lives with him for a couple of days, until its father, an angry {{p|Dragonite}}, begins to go on a rampage. Dratini returns home, promising to always be friends with Bill.<br />
<br />

In [[Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys]], Bill appears in the chapter ''[[GB11|Gold and Black VS. Team Rocket]]''. He tells {{OBP|Gold|Golden Boys}} and [[Whitney]] all the folklore of [[Ecruteak City]], including the legends of {{p|Ho-Oh}}, the [[legendary beasts]], and the story of the [[Bell Tower]] and the [[Brass Tower]]. Later, when Bill, Gold, and the Gym Leaders are held hostage by [[Grey]] and the other Rockets, he loans his {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}} to Gold and {{OBP|Black|Golden Boys}}.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Bill is the only male character in charge of a PC storage system, running that of the players of [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] games. The characters in charge of the storage systems in the other three main regions are all female.<br />
* Bill being mixed with a Pokémon during a teleportation experiment seems to be a direct reference to the movie ''{{wp|The Fly}}'', where a scientist experimenting with teleportation pods ends up combined with a fly.<br />
*In the anime, {{an|Mewtwo}} is shown on his lighthouse, which may indicate he knows of its creation.<br />
* In [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]], if a player declines to go to the [[Sevii Islands]] after defeating [[Blaine]], Bill will wait in [[Cinnabar Island]]'s Pokémon Center. During this period, he is both back at his home on {{rt|25|Kanto}} and on Cinnabar Island at the same time.<br />
* In the anime, Bill has green hair, and appears to be wearing formal clothing. In the games, his appearance differs greatly.<br />
* Many rumors sprouted up during the time of Generation I where if the player could travel to the gap which appeared at the back of Bill's House, they would encounter Mew. This proved to be false and to stop further rumors, the gap was removed in the Generation III remakes.<br />
* In Generation II and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, a fan of Bill's named Brent will reveal trivia about Bill via the [[Pokégear]]. The information shared include the fact that Bill's younger sister can't wink, Bill's first Pokémon caught was {{p|Abra}}, his mother used to be a [[Kimono Girl]], Bill is lactose intolerant (also claimed by Celio in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}), he isn't very good at Pokémon battles, and that Bill is attracted to the Goldenrod Flower Shop owner's daughter.<br />
* According to [[Pokémon Adventures]], Bill's {{wp|Birthday|birthday}} is December 31st and his {{wp|Blood type|blood type}} is O.<br />
* In the anime, Bill is portrayed as having a {{wp|Regional accents of English|British accent}}, while in the Pokémon Adventures manga, he is portrayed as having a southern American accent.<br />
* The Pokémon Bill is mixed with is different in each canon: in the games, he is mixed with a {{p|Clefairy}}, in the Pokémon Adventures manga he is mixed with a {{p|Rattata}}, and in the anime he is trapped in a {{p|Kabuto}} costume.<br />
<br />
==Name origin==<br />
Bill's name may come from {{wp|William Henry Gates III|Bill Gates}}, former head of {{wp|Microsoft}}, and developer of the {{wp|Microsoft Windows}} operating system for PCs. His Japanese name, Masaki, means {{wp|Japanese Spindle}}. It is also similar to みさき ''misaki'', meaning cape, where he lives.<br />

{{StrategyWiki}}<br />
(Japanese: '''ポケモンバトリオ''' ''Pokémon BATTRIO'') is an arcade game in the vein of [[Pokémon Stadium series|Pokémon Stadium]] or {{g|Battle Revolution}}, in that the sole focus is on Pokémon battles. The game uses special pucks that affect which Pokémon can be used. The main gameplay difference is that three Pokémon are used on each side (a [[Triple battle|feature]] later introduced in [[Generation V]]), hence the name "Battrio", a contraction of the words "Battle" and "Trio".<br />
<br />
Conceived as a joint venture between {{wp|Takara Tomy}} and {{wp|AQ Interactive}}, the development of Pokémon Battrio was announced on April 11, 2007 by Takara Tomy vice president Keita Satoh and AQ Interactive vice president Yoji Ishii. Marketed at a primary audience of 6-12 years, the battle system was stipulated to be much simpler when compared to the [[Version|core release]] of Pokémon games. Battrio was originally scheduled to launch on July 14, 2007, but was pushed back to September 14 the same year.<br />
<br />
==System==<br />
Pokémon Battrio operates on a {{wp|List of Sega arcade system boards#Triforce|Triforce}} arcade system and uses cel-shaded graphics. The machine costs ¥100 to operate for each player; a random puck is also dispensed from the machine per coin inserted. The console itself has only two buttons for each player; an orange button that is used to cycle through options in the game, and a larger yellow button used to confirm commands and interact with certain gameplay mechanics. Above these are 4x4 grids that the pucks are placed on and manipulated, as their positioning directly influences the positioning of the Pokémon on the in-game battlefield. Between these grids in the center of the console is the infrared scanner used for scanning in pucks.<br><br />
New mechanics are often introduced to keep the game alive, and as such, the system itself is upgraded to accommodate these new changes, as well as cosmetic changes to the interface.<br />
*'''Pokémon Battrio''' was the launch version and proving ground for the games appeal.<br />
*'''Pokémon Battrio Plus''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンバトリオプラス''', stylized ''Pokémon Battrio +'') was rolled out on January 25, 2008 in conjunction with release of the ''{{Battrio|Mewtwo's Challenge}}'' expansion. The upgrade added minor changes to damage calculation and expanded the type table to cover all 17 [[type]]s.<br />
*'''Pokémon Battrio Super''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンバトリオスーパー''', stylized ''Pokémon Battrio S'') was rolled out on July 19, 2008 in conjunction with the release of the ''{{Battrio|Giratina Tremor}}'' expansion. The upgrade featured a major overhaul in terms of damage calculation, brought a number of new mechanics to enhance battle experience, and new battle modes to challenge players.<br />
*'''Pokémon Battrio Zero''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンバトリオゼロ''', stylized ''Pokémon Battrio 0'') was rolled out on July 19, 2009 in conjunction with the release of the ''{{Battrio|Arceus Advent}}'' expansion. The upgrade featured a re-designed interface, added more interaction within battles, and enhanced gameplay mechanics.<br />
*'''Pokémon Battrio V''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンバトリオブイ''') was rolled out on July 14, 2011 in conjunction with the release of the ''{{Battrio|Black Thunder - White Fire}}'' expansion, and is the current version. The upgrade introduced Generation V Pokémon to Battrio and brought major changes in terms of gameplay interactivity, battle flow, and puck mechanics while discontinuing several older mechanics.<br />
<br />
==Pucks==<br />
Pucks are integral to the gameplay of Pokémon Battrio, as at least one is required to play the game. The pucks themselves are made of high-quality plastic with a 40mm diameter and a thickness of 3.4mm. Each puck portrays one of the fictional Pokémon species along with a set of individual [[Stats|statistics]] such as Hit Points, Attack, Defense, and Speed, as well as types and [[move]]s, just as they feature in the main series of Pokémon games. All of this data is stored on a microdot on the reverse of each puck, which is read into the game when it is positioned over the infrared scanner.<br />
<br />
===Mechanics===<br />
====Statistics====<br />
[[File:Snivy v01 040.png|thumb|A typical Battrio puck, as of the Battrio V upgrade.]]<br />
The stats displayed on the lower segment of each puck give a general indication as to how powerful a Pokémon is. The '''Attack''' (colored red) and '''Defense''' (colored blue) are displayed in blocks ranging from 1-5; 5 being more powerful than 1. This is only a rough indication, as each stat is a numerical value. Attack and Defense provide the base for all damage calculation in battles. The '''HP''' value in the center of these (above Defense prior to Battrio 0) shows how much a particular Pokémon will contribute to the overall HP of the team.<br><br />
In Battrio 0, the upper segment also displays the Pokémon's '''Speed''' (colored light blue). The principle remains the same as Attack and Defense, though Speed determines how quickly a Pokémon can attack, and in Battrio 0, whether it attacks first or second.<br><br />
There are also a number of stats not displayed on pucks that each Pokémon possesses. '''Cost''' is a value rated by stars and is proportionately linked to the puck rarity. Pokémon with higher costs are often more powerful and will therefore suffer more as a result of '''Exhaustion'''. Exhaustion is a graded numerical value based on the cost rating and determines how much Attack and Defense a Pokémon will lose once it has launched an attack. It may take several turns for the Pokémon to fully recover. The '''Critical Hit Ratio''' is also proportionately linked to puck rarity. Rarer more powerful Pokémon will have a lower Critical Hit Ratio compared to that of weaker ones. Successfully landing a Critical Hit will have 120% effectiveness. Some Pokémon may also have a '''Secret Power''', which gives a small Attack or Defense bonus depending on their position of the field.<br><br />
With the Battrio V upgrade, all stats are now displayed on the reverse of the puck - only '''Level''' is displayed on the front, which gives a rough indication as to Pokémon's strength. Attack and Defense remain colored red and blue respectively, but Speed is recolored green. Stats are now displayed in blocks ranging from 1-10, as opposed to 5. By reaching a certain level of type proficiency through battling, players with Memory Keys can take advantage of the new Level mechanic and "over-level" their Pokémon to increase their stats, as indicated by the yellow blocks on the reverse of the puck. All pucks also have an additional '''Feature''', which usually involves the use of other pucks to activate bonuses. Hidden stats Cost, Exhaustion, Critical Hit Ratio, and Secret Power are no longer included on pucks from the Battrio V upgrade.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
====Types and moves====<br />
{{BattrioTypes}}<br />
A Pokémon's type is indicated by the symbol to the left of the puck name on the upper segment. Its type determines what move types it will be weak against or resistant to in battle. The 17 types featured in Pokémon Battrio are the same as those found in the main series Pokémon games, as well as their individual strengths and weaknesses. Notable type additions include the Full-Plate and Eleven-Plate, both of which are used exclusively on {{p|Arceus}} pucks, in relation to the [[plate]]s that can be attached to it in the main series.<br><br />
Each Pokémon has only one move, as opposed to four in the main series. From the ''{{Battrio|Darkrai Invasion}}'' expansion onwards, the move is displayed to the right of the puck name on the upper segment. Prior to Battrio 0, moves were always of the same type as the Pokémon, but from the upgrade onwards, moves could be of types other than the Pokémon's type, allowing for more interesting battle tactics. The ''{{Battrio|Great Gathering of Legendary & Mirage Pokémon! Explosive Double Moves}}'' expansion enhanced this further by introducing Pokémon that could be one of up to two types with two different moves.<br><br />
Some pucks may also have a '''Bonus''', which has a move or [[ability]] attributed to it. These are not displayed on pucks like the normal move and have a small effect on stats (either on the Pokémon using it or the target Pokémon) during damage calculation. Bonus was no longer included with pucks from the Battrio V upgrade.<br />
{{-}}<br />
====Rarity====<br />
As with most games that have a collection element, the pucks in Pokémon Battrio have several levels of rarity across each expansion, as more powerful Pokémon are inherently rarer than weaker ones. Rarity in Battrio is displayed by featuring the designs of different [[Poké Ball]]s on the reverse of pucks, and their primary color schemes on the outer circumference on both sides. Each expansion features four core rarities: Normal, Super, Hyper, and Master, represented by a Poké Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball and Master Ball respectively. As the development of Battrio has continued, other Poké Ball designs have been used on special promotional pucks, or on secret pucks included in main expansions. Typically, all Hyper and Master pucks have holographic illustration. Some pucks, particularly in later Battrio 0 expansions had additional aesthetic enhancements such as translucent circumferences and glitter-treated circumferences.<br><br />
With the Battrio V upgrade, rarity is indicated by stars on the front and reverse of the pucks. Single rarity pucks have no additional features; Double rarity pucks have translucent spin colors and a holographic illustration; Triple rarity pucks have glitter-treated circumferences and a holographic illustration; Fourth rarity pucks have glitter-treated circumferences and a lenticular image illustration, giving a 3D effect; V rarity pucks also have glitter-treated circumferences and a lenticular image, but with a 'moving' attack. The table below lists the current rarities in Battrio.<br />

<br />
Debuting in the ''{{Battrio|Giratina Tremor}}'' expansion, Special Abilities can provide additional benefits for the team. Pokémon with Special Abilities are identified by the presence of an icon in the center of the upper segment of the puck. Initially only two Special Abilities were introduced; this was expanded to six with the Battrio 0 upgrade and the addition of '''Leader Abilities'''. A Pokémon designated as leader will activate its ability upon commencement of the battle. To the right is a table of the different Special Abilities Pokémon may have. Below is a list of status effects that Support Moves can inflict, four of which share similarities with [[status ailment]]s in the core games.<br />
{| class="expandable" width="50%"<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
'''Support Move effects'''<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
*'''Paralysis:''' A Pokémon inflicted with paralysis will move more slowly than normal and cannot pick up any berries.<br />
*'''Slow-footed:''' All Pokémon on the opposing team will move more slowly than normal.<br />
*'''Sleep:''' A Pokémon cannot be selected to attack for the turn after it was inflicted with sleep.<br />
*'''Confusion:''' A Pokémon inflicted with confusion will move more quickly than normal in random directions and is more difficult to select if attacking.<br />
*'''Poison:''' The HP of the opposing team will decrease while any opposing Pokémon move.<br />
|}<br />
The original Special Abilities were no longer supported with the Battrio V upgrade, but new ones began to be introuduced with the release of the ''{{Battrio|Burning Wings - Cold Fangs}}'' expansion.<br />

|}<br />
<br />
Debuting in the ''{{Battrio|Mewtwo Awakening}}'' expansion, Awakening utilises existing gameplay elements in various ways to provide additional bonuses to Pokémon on the field. Pokémon with Awakening are identified by a colored name box with the ability above their name. A Pokémon may only have one Awakening ability, hence pucks from one expansion may have identical versions with different Awakening abilities. Two Awakening abilities were introduced in ''Mewtwo Awakening''; two in ''{{Battrio|Great Decisive Battle! Legendary Pokémon}}'', and two in ''{{Battrio|Endless Fierce Battle}}''. The effects Awakening provide are listed in the adjacent table. Awakening was no longer supported with the Battrio V upgrade.<br />
{{-}}<br />
====Puck colors and spin colors====<br />
Introduced on pucks from Battrio V, pucks may have either a black or white base as opposed to the Poké Ball designs prior to the upgrade. Grouping pucks by their base color will determine which Legendary Pokémon is summoned if '''[[Advent (Battrio)|Advent]]''' is successfully triggered (see [[#Battling|Battling]]). Pucks with black bases will summon different Pokémon compared to those with white bases. Pucks also have colored segments at three points of the circumference, which denotes their spin color. Spin colors are either green, red, or blue. Grouping pucks by their spin color will allow the player to use '''Spin Attacks''' during the course of the battle. As with the base color, the spin color determines which Pokémon will be summoned upon a successful Spin Attack. From the ''{{Battrio|Burning Wings - Cold Fangs}}'' expansion onwards, Pokémon summoned for a Spin Attack may also inflict an added special effect, which share similarities with status ailments in the core games. These are listed below. Pucks above Triple rarity do not to have base colors or spin colors. However, with the release of the ''{{Battrio|Sacred Sword Gathering}}'' expansion, scanning in a Triple rarity or above puck alongside two other pucks with the same base colors will result in the rarer puck adopting the same base color, allowing more powerful teams to ultilize Advent.<br />
{| class="expandable" width="70%"<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
'''Spin Attack special effects'''<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
*'''Paralysis:''' A Pokémon inflicted with paralysis will have no Great Success area on the slider when attacking. It can be cured by picking up seven berries or 1 super berry. An {{p|Electivire}} that uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} is one of the summoned Pokémon that can inflict this effect.<br />
*'''Frozen:''' A Pokémon that is frozen cannot attack and will move more slowly than normal. It can be cured by picking up three berries or 1 super berry. A {{p|Rotom|Frost Rotom}} that uses {{m|Blizzard}} is one of the summoned Pokémon that can inflict this effect.<br />
*'''Burned:''' A Pokémon that is burned receives additional damage when attacked. It can be cured by picking up seven berries or 1 super berry. A {{p|Magmortar}} that uses {{m|Fire Blast}} is one of the summoned Pokémon that can inflict this effect.<br />
*'''Speed Decrease:''' A Pokémon affected by this will move significantly slower than normal. It can be cured by picking up three berries or 1 super berry. A summoned {{p|Piplup}} that uses {{m|Bubble}} is one of the summoned Pokémon that can inflict this effect.<br />
*'''Defense Decrease:''' A Pokémon affected by this will have its defense stat lowered significantly. It can be cured by picking up seven berries or 1 super berry. A summoned {{p|Shaymin}} that uses {{m|Energy Ball}} is one of the summoned Pokémon that can inflict this effect.<br />
|}<br />
<br />
==Gameplay==<br />
===Setup===<br />
[[File:BattrioPuckScan.jpg|thumb|220px|Scanning pucks. Here the player has scanned in a {{p|Ho-Oh}} puck as their second Pokémon.]]<br />
Upon starting a battle, the player has 60 seconds to scan in up to three Battrio pucks using the infrared scanner in the center of the console. The data is then transferred and each respective Pokémon will appear on screen. If the player has only one or two pucks, the game will assign random Pokémon to make the deficit. Players can scan two pucks portraying the same Pokémon as long as they are different in terms of stats or abilities. One could have a {{OBP|Turtwig|01-016}} from ''{{Battrio|Dialga and Palkia Clash}}'' and a {{OBP|Turtwig|02-022}} from ''{{Battrio|Darkrai Invasion}}'', but not two Turtwig from ''Dialga and Palkia Clash'' for example.<br><br />
After scanning each puck, the player must then move them onto the 4x4 grid. When the player has finished scanning their pucks, the battle is ready to begin.<br><br />
From the ''{{Battrio|Fierce Gale - Thundering Thunderclaps}}'' expansion onwards, grouping pucks by their spin color will allow players to scan in a fourth puck. Unlike the initial three Pokémon which appear on the field, the fourth Pokémon can be summoned at specific points during the course of a battle for an extra attack.<br />
<br />
===Puck positioning===<br />
====Prior to Battrio 0====<br />
Before the actual battle phase, there is a pre-battle period indicated by a time bar in which players can arrange the positions of their Pokémon on the field. From the Battrio S upgrade onwards, berries will also drop randomly on each side of the field that players can move their Pokémon over to collect and increase their '''Fervor Gauge''' (see Battling).<br><br />
When individual pucks are positioned in the various "arrangements" detailed below, those Pokémon will gain a small Attack or Defense increase that may give them an edge in battle. Specific groups of Pokémon together on the field can also activate [[Battrio combos|combo bonuses]], typically those of an [[Evolution|evolutionary line]] or related [[Legendary Pokémon]].<br />

<br />
====In Battrio 0====<br />
[[File:Battrio0Battle.jpg|thumb|220px|The battlefield in Battrio 0.]]<br />
The Battrio 0 upgrade rejects the "arrangement" concept in favor of individual areas of the field called '''Power Zones''' that provide Attack or Defense bonuses, represented by red and blue areas respectively. The positions of Power Zones vary from field to field, but they remain fixed for the course of the match. White Power Zones may also appear during the course of the match that provides both an Attack and Defense bonus.<br />
<br />
====In Battrio V====<br />
The Battrio V upgrade no longer features the pre-battle period and the Power Zone mechanic. Battles are begun instead by the first Pokémon to accumulate enough berries to fill up their '''Berry Gauge''', requiring the player to continually move and monitor the Pokémon they wish to use in battle.<br />
{{-}}<br />
===Battling===<br />
Unlike Pokémon battles in the core games, the HP displayed on each puck is used to create one overall HP bar, as opposed to belonging to individual Pokémon. The way in which battles are conducted depends on the version of Pokémon Battrio the console is running.<br />
<br />
====In Battrio and Battrio +====<br />
[[File:BattrioBattle.jpg|thumb|220px|A battle in progress in Pokémon Battrio.]]<br />
The player going first then has 9 seconds to choose which Pokémon to attack with and choose the opponent Pokémon to attack. The values for the Attack of the attacking player's Pokémon and the Defense of the defending player's Pokémon are then shown. Additional bonuses such as those gained from arrangements, combos or type advantages are then added or subtracted from those values. The Pokémon that has the highest value at the end of the damage calculation then deals that amount of damage to the opponent player's HP. In the event of a tie, damage is dealt to both players.<br />
<br />
====In Battrio S====<br />
Battrio S gave a major overhaul in terms of damage calculation in battles. Instead of basing this off the greatest value, it is based on the ''difference'' between the Attack of the attacking player's Pokémon and the Defense of the defending player's Pokémon. Additional bonuses such as those mentioned above then come into effect. Support Moves, which activate randomly may also provide their effects at this stage. In Battrio S, collecting berries during the pre-battle period also provides a '''Berry Bonus''' to the Pokémon attacking. Each berry provides a +5 Attack bonus, and each Pokémon can collect up to 8 berries for a maximum bonus of +40. If a Pokémon has a Berry Special Ability, a large berry will randomly spawn that is worth four times that of a normal berry. After a Pokémon has attacked, all berries collected in the previous pre-battle period are reset. '''Cheering''', again only present in Battrio S, adds small amounts to Attack/Defense by pressing the confirm button in a timely manner when prompted during damage calulation. Another new feature introduced in Battrio S was '''Fervor''', which acts as a damage multiplier. The Fervor Gauge is present under the HP bar and can be filled by collecting berries that randomly appear during the pre-battle period between player's turns. Filling the gauge will increase Fervor by 0.5x increments up to a maximum of 4x, which can have a pivotal effect in damage calculation. The difference in damage is then dealt to the HP bar of the player who lost the battle.<br />
<br />
====In Battrio 0====<br />
[[File:BattrioDamage.jpg|thumb|220px|An {{p|Infernape}} attacks a {{p|Torterra}}.]]<br />
Instead of players attacking in alternate rounds, both players attack per round with two consecutive battles. In previous versions the player simply selected one of their Pokémon on the field to attack with, now the stats for each Pokémon are displayed for both players and each player must select one of their Pokémon within the 9 second time limit. This method puts more emphasis on anticipating your opponent to try and gain an advantage.<br><br />
The order of the attacks in each round is determined by the Pokémon with the highest Speed stat. As with previous versions, Attack/Defense bonuses, type advantages and Special Ability bonuses come into effect when calculating damage. A new feature in Battrio 0 is a slider that appears under the type icon of each Pokémon. The valid hit area of the slider depends on the type advantage/disadvantage of the attacking Pokémon, though the principle for each player remains the same: the closer to the center of the bar the marker is when the player hits the confirm button, the better the Attack or Defense bonus they will gain. Hitting the white line exactly in the center (called '''Great Success''') gives a maximum boost. Once all of the calculations have been completed, the difference in damage is taken from the HP of the loser of that battle. The process then repeats for the slower of the two Pokémon.<br><br />
Another new feature to Battrio 0 is '''[[Advent (Battrio)|Advent]]''', which acts as a 'finishing move' of sorts. If a player is leading by a considerable margin, they can choose to activate Advent when the symbol appears below their HP bar, triggering a short animation in which they have to press the confirm button just as the two halves of the Advent symbol merge. Successfully triggering Advent will summon a random Pokémon to inflict extra damage to the opponent.<br><br />
After a round of battles has been completed, there then follows another pre-battle period in which players can switch the positions of their Pokémon, followed by the next round. Players may use the same Pokémon to battle again in the next round, but it may suffer as a result of exhaustion. Pokémon affected by exhaustion are identified by sweat droplets by their name and receive a reduction in stats, therefore it is generally advisable to use the remaining team members before resorting to use Pokémon that have already participated in a battle. <br />
<br />
====In Battrio V====<br />
[[File:BattrioVAttack.jpg|thumb|220px|A {{p|Samurott}} prepares to attack the opponent Pokémon.]]<br />
A Pokémon that fills its Berry Gauge will initiate a battle. Instead of choosing an opponent, the attacking Pokémon goes up against all three opponent Pokémon. This phase is called the '''Type Battle'''. During this phase, three slider bars similar to the one introduced in Battrio 0 will appear displaying the types of the participating Pokémon. The player then has to hit the confirm button for each of these bars to determine if they will create a '''Danger Zone''' for their opponent to avoid. Hitting outside of the green area will not generate a Danger Zone; anywhere inside will generate a normal size Danger Zone. Hitting the red area (Great Success) will generate a larger than normal Danger Zone. The opponent then has just under three seconds to maneuver their pucks to avoid any Danger Zones before the attack commences (if all Danger Zones are strayed into, the timer is bypassed). Danger Zones appear as circles with a red 'X', but change to red pointed circles with 'キケン' ''danger'', when Pokémon stray into their path. The attack then commences, and damage is dealt to all three opposing Pokémon. Differences in Attack, Defense, type advantages/disadvantages and potential extra damage for Pokémon straying into Danger Zones is all taken into effect, but is not displayed as explicitly as previous Battrio versions. The total damage for all three Pokémon is displayed in the bottom corner of the screen and is the overall damage dealt to the opponent's HP bar. The process then continues until another Pokémon has filled its Berry Gauge.<br><br />
Collecting berries will also fill up the '''Team Gauge'''. For teams of Pokémon that have the same spin colors, filling the Team Gauge up to the point indicated by a colored puck will allow the player to perform a '''Spin Attack'''. While executing a Spin Attack, a player must move two pucks to the top of the grid out of the way and then begin moving their selected Pokémon in a circular motion on the grid. Speed and rhythm are important, as the opponent will also be spinning one of their pucks to counter the player's attack. As long as the player generates enough power as indicated on the spin gauge to keep their opponent from pushing their marker back behind the required point on the gauge, the Spin Attack will succeed. A successful Spin Attack will summon a Pokémon from a number of candidates based on the team's spin color to deal additional damage to the opponent. From the ''{{Battrio|Burning Wings - Cold Fangs}}'' onwards, additional special effects may also be applied.<br><br />
From the ''{{Battrio|Fierce Gale - Thundering Thunderclaps}}'' expansion onwards, grouping pucks by their spin color also allows players to scan in a fourth puck. During battle, this is indicated by an icon depicting the Pokémon in the bottom corner of the screen. When one of the main party Pokémon has filled its Berry Gauge, the player will be prompted to press the confirm button. Doing so in a timely manner will summon the fourth Pokémon for an attack after the party Pokémon has attacked.<br><br />
For teams of Pokémon that have the same base puck colors, filling the Team Gauge up to the point indicated by the '''Advent''' symbol will summon one of a selection of powerful Pokémon depending on the base color. Summoning either will initiate a sequence in which the opponent has just under six seconds to avoid the Danger Zones of either Pokémon's pending attack. At the end of the countdown, the summoned Pokémon will unleash an attack dealing damage to the opponent.<br><br />
Upon winning a certain amount of matches, players may also gain the ability to activate '''V Power''' in their next battle. V Power increases the rate at which berries are dropped on the player's side of the field, allowing them to fill up their Berry Gauges and Team Gauge faster.<br />
<br />
The game continues until the HP of one player is depleted, thus concluding the match. Winning in battles earns the player money to spend in-game on various items and increases type experience, relative to the types of the Pokémon used in the battle.<br />
<br />
==Game Modes==<br />
[[File:BattrioShop.jpg|thumb|220px|The Shop features an assortment of useful battle items.]]<br />
Pokémon Battrio features a number of ways to battle in an array of battle modes.<br />
*'''Versus:''' The simplest way to get into Battrio is to have a single round VS match against a computer-controlled opponent or against a second player using the 2P section of the arcade machine. As of Battrio V, there is an introduction tutorial from the main menu.<br />
*'''Adventure:''' In Adventure mode, the player can choose an avatar from several different Trainer designs and participate in stage-based battles against CPU opponents. Opponents get more difficult as the player progresses. Boss Trainers may also be encountered along the way, akin to [[Gym Leader]]s from the main series Pokémon games. This mode is no longer supported in Battrio V.<br />
*'''Battrio Tower:''' Introduced in the Battrio 0 upgrade, Battrio Tower is designed to be the ultimate test of skill as players are challenged to climb the tower and reach the top. Each floor has one Trainer with a set team of Pokémon (some floors may instead have a Pokémon that leads its own team), each one becoming progressively difficult as the Tower is climbed. Initially, Battrio Tower consisted of 100 floors. This was increased to 250 floors following the release of ''{{Battrio|Challenging the Myths}}'', again to 400 floors with the release of ''{{Battrio|Mewtwo Awakening}}'', and finally to 999 floors with the release of ''{{Battrio|Great Decisive Battle! Legendary Pokémon}}''. This mode bears some similarities to the various [[Battle Tower]]s in many of the [[Version|main series]] games.<br />
*'''Challenge Battle:''' Also introduced in the Battrio 0 upgrade, Challenge Battles are designed to test a player's knowledge of different Pokémon and their capabilities. Each round has one Trainer with a set team, often featuring a particularly powerful Pokémon, and a pre-selected team of Pokémon for the player to use. There is often a certain strategy players must discover when competing in Challenge Battles. This mode is similar to the various challenges found on [[Battle CD]]s from {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}. This mode is no longer supported in Battrio V.<br />
*'''Battrio Stadium:''' Introduced in the Battrio V upgrade, players face straight battles against Trainers until they quit or lose. Players can choose to face Normal or Strong opponents depending on their skill level. Players using Memory Keys can also participate in V Battles by getting four consecutive wins, in which they face a tough Trainer with V Power activated.<br />
*'''Shop:''' The Shop can be accessed between battles in any game mode and can be used to purchase useful items that may aid the player with money they earn from participating in battles. Items include but are not limited to: various [[Potion]]s that refill a percentage of the HP bar; damage multiplier bonuses that are immediate upon starting a battle; a token that allows the player to activate Advent at any time during a battle, and; the ability to upgrade the experience level of a type.<br />
<br />
===Memory Keys===<br />
[[File:Battrio Memory Key.png|thumb|right|A Battrio Memory Key, from the Battrio 0 upgrade. Note the cover absent from previous designs.]]<br />
'''Memory Keys''' (Japanese: '''メモリーキー''' ''Memory Key'') are memory-saving devices that are inserted into the arcade console. Sold at a retail price of about ¥600, while they are not necessary in order to play the game, they become essential for progressing through some modes.<br><br />
Memory Keys allow players to select an avatar from a number of Trainer designs and name it, becoming their profile for all battles undertaken whilst the Memory Key is plugged in the console. The Memory Key keeps track of wins/losses, money earned, items obtained, experience levels of types, and progress in game modes. It also has an LCD screen that players can view several of their stats on without having to plug it into the console. The screen can display the current experience level of each type by scrolling along the symbols on the screen, the player's current money total, medals earned in game modes, and their current floor in Battrio Tower. <br />
[[File:Memory Key Pachirisu color.png|thumb|left|A "{{p|Pachirisu}}-color" Memory Key from the Battrio S upgrade]]<br />
Memory Keys are available in various different colors including the standard red or blue, and various {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}-themed color schemes, which generally tie-in with puck expansion releases.<br />

The standard structure for each Pokémon card article is listed below; good example articles are {{TCG ID|Base Set|Charizard|4}} and {{TCG|Dark Metal Energy}}.<br />
<br />
The article should start off with the relative Infobox template. For example, a Pokémon card would use the PokémoncardInfobox template. The name of the card should follow, then a brief summary of the card that may include type, stage, class, or the set it was released in. Afterwards, all cards should follow the format as detailed below.<br><br />
'''<nowiki>==Card text==</nowiki>'''<br><br />
Any Pokémon Powers, Poké-Bodies, Poké-Powers, Abilities, Attacks or effects as detailed on the card are put under this heading.<br><br />
:'''<nowiki>===Pokédex data===</nowiki>'''<br />
:Statistics, such as the Pokémon's number, Height, Weight, and Pokédex entry as detailed on the card are put here.<br><br />
'''<nowiki>==Release information==</nowiki>'''<br><br />
In the event of a particular card being reprinted or promotional cards, information regarding other expansion(s) the card was released in, or how the card was distributed, including text/art changes should be detailed here.<br><br />
'''<nowiki>==Trivia==</nowiki>'''<br><br />
Any useful or interesting facts about the card, including for example, limited numbers or errata should be detailed here. Multiple facts should be separated with bullet points.<br />
:'''<nowiki>===Origin===</nowiki>'''<br />
:Attacks, Pokédex entries, characters, or items that originate from, or are derived from the [[Pokémon games]] are detailed here.<br />
====Cards by Pokémon articles====<br />
These pages are designed to serve as definitive references for all variations of each Pokémon species that has been featured on a card. Each page should start with how many card iterations of that Pokémon there has been (using the expression <nowiki>{{#expr: {{PAGESINCATEGORY:{{{Card Name}}}}} - 1}}</nowiki>), followed by the expansion it debuted in and any special sets it has been the main focus of. A good example article is {{TCG|Pikachu}}, as it covers all eras of the TCG. Ensure that the article also references the relevant Pokédex number in the category link at the bottom of the page.<br />
====Card images====<br />
Ideally, any images should be of a high enough quality so that the main artwork can be clearly seen and all text can be discerned. The preferred format for card images is .jpg. All card images from expansion sets or half decks should conform to the standard naming convention, which constitutes of Pokémon name (as it is on the card), the set name, and the set number with no spaces. For example, the Charizard card from Base Set is named '''CharizardBaseSet4.jpg'''. Ensure that no watermarks or other obtrusive marks are present and if possbile, the card is not skewed.<br />
<br />
===Key templates===<br />
When entering information into any of the infoboxes, ensure that you preview before saving the page, as minor mistakes in spelling may make portions of them not work. Instructions on how each of the infoboxes work can be found on their respective discussion pages. As the TCG is a constantly evolving game, new parameters may be added to accomodate new game mechanics. Refer to these pages, or inspect the templates themselves to see new changes.<br />

====Link templates====<br />
These link templates are particularly useful for making lists of the cards available in the different sets or theme decks.<br />
* {{Template|TCG}} - This link template is for cards which appear widely in the game, such as energy cards. To use this link template, type in <nowiki>{{TCG|Card Name}}</nowiki>. For example, <nowiki>{{TCG|Dark Metal Energy}}</nowiki> would result in {{TCG|Dark Metal Energy}}. <br />
* {{Template|TCG ID}} - This link template is for cards which appear in only certain sets, such as Pokémon cards and trainer cards. To use this link template, type in <nowiki>{{TCG ID|Set Name|Card Name|Number}}</nowiki>. For example, <nowiki>{{TCG ID|Base Set|Charizard|4}}</nowiki> would result in {{TCG ID|Base Set|Charizard|4}}.<br />
* {{Template|ct}} - This link template is to link to the TCG types, much like the {{template|type2}} template links to types from the handheld games.<br />

==Synopsis==<br />
While traveling on {{AP|Lapras}}, {{ashfr|the trio}} is caught in a {{m|whirlpool}}. After they regain consciousness, {{Tracey}} finds out that they are on [[Pinkan Island]]. They climb the cliffs and see a {{shiny|pink}} {{p|Rhyhorn}}. Tracey sketches it, and {{Ash}}, in order to prove to {{an|Misty}} that he knows what he's doing, races up to the Rhyhorn, who promptly knocks him away. Ash runs over to Tracey, and the two boys head for where Misty and {{AP|Pikachu}} are. The team are cornered by the edge of the cliffs, and in order to save them, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} uses {{m|Metronome}} and {{m|Teleport}}s them away. The Rhyhorn goes over the cliff and the team wonders how they escaped. [[Officer Jenny]] arrives and together they rescue the Rhyhorn. Jenny explains that the [[Pinkan Berry|Pinkan Berries]] turn any {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that [[Pokémon food|eats them a lot]], permanently pink. <br />
<br />
{{TRT}}, having noticed the Rhyhorn, arrive on the island and see {{an|Jigglypuff}}. They think it is special until they realize all Jigglypuff are pink. Before Jigglypuff can sing its song, they run off into the forest, planning to catch the pink Pokémon and open their own theme park. They use their Pokémon to catch the pink ones, and {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} chases 2 Pink Nidoran into a cave, and runs straight back out. A {{p|Nidoking}} comes out of the cave and chases Team Rocket away.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Jenny is explaining how Pinkan Island is a reserve and that she won't press charges. The trio contact {{an|Professor Oak}}, who knew about the island and its pinkness, and he tells them about the research before {{AP|Muk}} gives him a hug. An alarm sounds and the team offer to help Jenny. Team Rocket are still being chased and attempt to defeat Nidoking, but Jenny and the others appear. They do their {{motto}} and Ash has Pikachu use {{m|ThunderShock}}, thus shocking Nidoking. Nidoking throws the Rocket Pokémon at their owners and they blast off. Nidoking chases the trio and Jenny, and both {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} and {{TP|Tracey|Marill}} attempt to {{pkmn|battle}} him, but ultimately run off scared. <br />
<br />
Pikachu tries to shock him, but Jenny informs Ash that Nidoking is on a rampage and cannot be stopped. Nidoking uses {{m|Hyper Beam}}, but Togepi uses Metronome again and creates a {{m|Barrier}}. Jenny tells the trio to get out and run. She engages Nidoking and lassos it, and Nidoking drops to the ground dizzy. Jenny drops the team off beyond the whirlpools and Misty contemplates Togepi's actions. Ash and Tracey laugh at her suggestion of Togepi attacking. Ash notices Tracey's sketch of Officer Jenny. Misty attempts to get Togepi to attack, but is unsuccessful.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* [[Professor Oak's lecture]]: <!--Description here.--><br />
** Pokémon senryū summary: {{p|Eevee}}, has three evolutions; now which shall I choose?<br />
* The {{p|Gengar}} and {{p|Tauros}} costumes that Team Rocket are wearing made another appearance in ''[[AG059|Manectric Charge]]''.<br />
* It is speculated that this island is where the [[pink Butterfree]] from ''[[EP021|Bye-Bye Butterfree]]'' is from, but this has not been officially confirmed.<br />
* {{an|Jigglypuff}} does not {{m|sing}} in this episode.<br />
* When Team Rocket are imagining opening up a theme park with pink Pokémon, their disguises are the same as the ones from ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]''.<br />
* This is the second episode Togepi uses Metronome, and the first time Misty suspects that it knows this move.<br />
* This is also the second straight episode in which a Pokémon sends Team Rocket blasting off by hitting them with its tail (and an unusual Pokémon at that).<br />
* The book ''[[Secret of the Pink Pokémon]]'' is based on this episode.<br />
<br />
===Errors===<br />
* When Ash is climbing the cliff after they first reach Pinkan Island, Pikachu is on his shoulder. When Ash and Misty are shown from the back, Pikachu is missing.<br />
* When Tracey is pulling himself up onto the cliff, his hand is not shaped normally.<br />
* When Jigglypuff jumps onto Team Rocket's submarine it is seen standing on the red portion of its head. In the next scene the portion of the submarine underneath Jigglypuff's feet is yellow.<br />
* The Vileplume and Paras seen on the island do not display the [[shiny Pokémon|alternate coloration]] patterns as seen on [[Valencia Island]].<br />
* In the dub, in the scene where the group is being chased by the pink {{p|Nidoking}}, Misty calls out for her {{TP|Misty|Starmie}} when she sends out {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}. Starmie was left at the [[Cerulean Gym]] more than twenty episodes before.<br />
* Officer Jenny claims that Thunderbolt will not work because the Nidoking is on a rampage, this is incorrect as Nidoking is part Ground type and would not work regardless.<br />
* When observing the pink Rhyhorn, Tracey mentions that it is 8 meters long. This is impossible, since the Rhyhorn would be just over 24 feet in length, and it is clearly nowhere near this size. Rhyhorn's size according to the Pokédex is only 1 meter.<br />
* James says "That shock was Nidoking's wake-up call!" However, the previous scene doesn't show Nidoking getting shocked.<br />

<hr />
<div>A '''move tutor''' (Japanese: '''わざおしえ人''' ''Move Teacher'') is a [[non-player character]] who will teach a [[Pokémon]] [[moves]] that are not normally able to be learned through [[level]] up, [[TM]]s, or [[HM]]s. Move tutors are found in [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Orre]], [[Sinnoh]], and [[Unova]]. They are not to be confused with [[move relearner]]s.<br />
<br />
==Generation II move tutors==<br />
===Crystal===<br />
[[File:Move tutor.png|150px|right|thumb]]<br />
In {{game|Crystal}}, an elderly fellow visits [[Goldenrod City]]'s [[Goldenrod Game Corner|Game Corner]] every Wednesday and Saturday after the player has become the [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. He teaches three different moves for 4000 coins, two of which were [[TM]]s in [[Generation I]] and returned to that status in [[Generation III]], and one of which later became a TM with the other two. These moves are breedable in the same fashion as TMs and HMs.<br />

===FireRed and LeafGreen===<br />
These move tutors are in {{v2|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. They do not appear in the [[Generation I|older versions]] for the [[Game Boy]] system.<br />
<br />
====Normal move tutors====<br />
These tutors will teach a Pokémon a move otherwise unobtainable with the [[Generation III]] [[TM]] list. Many of the NPCs which gave a TM containing a move in [[Generation I]] that is no longer available in TM form in the current generation will directly teach the move they would have given instead. These can only be taught once.<br />

====Special move tutors====<br />
A woman at [[Boon Island]]'s [[Cape Brink]] will teach one move to each of the fully evolved Kanto starter Pokémon. She will teach {{m|Frenzy Plant}} to {{p|Venusaur}}, {{m|Hydro Cannon}} to {{p|Blastoise}}, and {{m|Blast Burn}} to {{p|Charizard}}. The moves can only be taught to one of these three Pokémon once, and the Pokémon learning the move must have maximum [[happiness]].<br />
<br />
===Emerald===<br />
In {{game|Emerald}}, various move tutors can be found across the [[Hoenn]] region. Some moves may be purchased at the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}. Those that cannot be purchased may only be learned once from the tutor.<br />

==Generation IV move tutors==<br />
===Diamond and Pearl===<br />
There are two Move Tutors in Sinnoh - one on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}} and one on {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}. The move tutor on Route 210 teaches {{m|Draco Meteor}} to a Dragon-type Pokémon which has had its [[happiness]] maximized. Similar to the Cape Brink move tutor in FireRed and LeafGreen, the Route 228 move tutor will teach one of the elemental versions of {{m|Hyper Beam}} to a fully-evolved starter with maximum happiness. Unlike the Cape Brink tutor, it can be any of the twelve [[starter Pokémon]], but the move's type will always correspond with the Pokémon's primary type. Also unlike the Cape Brink tutor, it can be taught as many times as the player likes.<br />

===Platinum===<br />
In {{game|Platinum}}, in addition to the move tutors in Diamond and Pearl, three new move tutors are added, in [[Snowpoint City]], on {{rt|212|Sinnoh}}, and in the [[Survival Area]]. These move tutors accept [[shard]]s in return for their services, charging eight shards of various colors per move.<br />

===HeartGold and SoulSilver===<br />
The following tutor moves are available in Johto's remakes, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. Similar to Emerald, most of the moves that a move tutor can teach to a Pokémon require a set amount of Battle Points. Fourteen of these moves are exclusive to HeartGold and SoulSilver, while the rest are also obtainable in Platinum. <br />
<br />
The following moves are also available in Platinum by going to the move tutors on {{rt|212|Sinnoh}}, in [[Snowpoint City]], and in the [[Survival Area]], but with the difference that they require shards instead of [[Battle Point|BP]] as payment:<br />

==Generation V move tutors==<br />
<br />
===Black and White===<br />
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, there are four move tutors in Unova - one in [[Driftveil City]], one on {{rt|13|Unova}}, one in [[Opelucid City]] and one in [[Castelia City]]. A man in his house in Driftveil City teaches the newly-introduced {{DL|Move variations|Pledge moves}}, which can be combined with each other in double and triple battles for additional effects. As before, the elemental {{m|Hyper Beam}} variants can be taught to [[happiness|happy]] fully-evolved [[starter Pokémon]] of each respective type, with the new move tutor being located on Route 13, and {{m|Draco Meteor}} is taught by [[Opelucid Gym]] [[Gym Leader|Leader]] [[Drayden]] or [[Iris]], depending on the game, with the same restriction as in Generation IV. Also, if the player brings an event {{p|Meloetta}} to the Cafe in [[Castelia City]], a man will teach it {{m|Relic Song}}. Furthermore, if the player brings an event {{p|Keldeo}} with {{p|Cobalion}}, {{p|Terrakion}}, and {{p|Virizion}} in their party to [[Moor of Icirrus]], they will teach it {{m|Secret Sword}}.<br />

<br />
==In other games==<br />
===PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure===<br />
In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], {{p|Electabuzz}} and {{p|Primeape}} will teach the player {{m|Thunderbolt}} and {{m|Iron Tail}}, respectively. This will drastically enhance Pikachu's performance in battle. Though Electabuzz does not actually teach Pikachu how to use Thunderbolt, he does help strengthen its power.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* In Pokémon Platinum, each move requires exactly eight shards. However, how many of each color varies.<br />
** {{m|Signal Beam}} is the only move tutor move which requires shards of each color.<br />
** {{m|Fury Cutter}}, {{m|Last Resort}}, {{m|Spite}}, and {{m|Superpower}} are the only moves that require only one color of shard.<br />
** In Platinum, there are exactly two tutorable moves for every type except for the {{type2|Normal}}.<br />
* Of all of the {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} move tutor moves, only five can be learned outside the Battle Frontier, and all of them for free. Of those five, four are learned in [[Blackthorn City]]. <br />
* The nine moves available by move tutor in {{game|Black and White|s}} are the only moves ever taught by a move tutor that {{p|Mew}} cannot learn.<br />
** Likewise, the four moves available by move tutor in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} are the only moves of these nine that were in existence at the time.<br />

<br />
The development cycle of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, released in 1999 in Japan and 2000 elsewhere, is probably the most discussed and researched of all releases of Pokémon games in the history of the franchise. A relatively broad amount of official material in combination with later investigations reveal a lot of details about incomplete and unreleased elements. Several aspects from their prototype versions are proof of the over two year development period [[Game Freak]] undertook with the sequels of the [[Generation I]] games.<br />
<br />
==First mention of Pocket Monsters 2==<br />
<br />
In 1997, Nintendo announced the first details of the next generation of Pocket Monsters games, to be titled '''Pocket Monsters 2: Gold and Silver'''. The games were intended to be released at the end of the year for both [[Game Boy]] and [[Super Game Boy]].<br />
<br />
One of the many additions promised, notably, was a skateboard that could be used in addition to the [[Bicycle]] of the previous games and would allow users to travel to "unusual places". Though this never made the final cut, other things announced, such as the [[time|real-time clock]], {{cat|Generation II Pokémon|100 new Pokémon}}, including [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|new evolutions of old Pokémon]], new [[TM]]s and [[HM]]s containing new [[move]]s were included. The trading and communication abilities of the games were also to be improved, and [[Time Capsule|backward compatibility]] with the Generation I games was also announced.<br />

| Concept art depicting {{colorlink|Ledyba|000}}, {{colorlink|Silver|000}}, and the introductory cutscene from {{colorlink|Gold and Silver|000}}<br />

<br />
===New Pokémon in the anime===<br />
The {{pkmn|anime}} also provided early looks at the new Pokémon. {{p|Ho-Oh}}, the eventual [[version mascot]] of Pokémon Gold, appeared in the [[EP001|first episode]]. Later, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} hatched from an egg {{Ash}} himself found, and [[Misty]] became the first main character to own a [[Generation II]] Pokémon. {{p|Snubbull}} and {{p|Marill}} made their first appearances in ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'', and {{p|Donphan}} appeared at the start of ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. During [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|the second season]], Ash and Misty also encountered {{Tracey}}, who owned a {{TP|Tracey|Marill}}, and the focus of [[M02|the second movie]] was {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, the version mascot of Pokémon Silver, in which {{p|Slowking}} also appeared. {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Ledyba}}, {{p|Hoothoot}}, and {{p|Elekid}} also made an appearance in ''[[PK04|Pikachu's Rescue Adventure]]''.<br />
<br />
===First screenshots===<br />
The color scheme in these screenshots was not as varied as the one provided by the [[Game Boy Color]]. Instead, the colorscheme of these screenshots indicates that the games initially used a palette-changing feature that was present on the [[Super Game Boy]] (as well as the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] games and {{game|Yellow}}), with different areas being colored differently (such as [[Pewter City]] having a gray palette, [[Cerulean City]] having a blue palette, and so on).<br />
<br />
At this time, the early game screenshots released generally didn't look all that much different from [[Generation I]]. The pictures clearly show the games' engine being in a more developed but still early stage. The lack of battle images would seem to indicate that a redone battle system had not been implemented yet.<br />

<br />
The end of 1997 passed without a release for Pocket Monsters 2: Gold and Silver. The potential release date was removed, and things generally stayed quiet until early 1998.<br />
<br />
It was at this time that the games were reannounced as Pocket Monsters Gold and Silver. Though the "2" was dropped, the games remained essentially a sequel to [[Generation I]]. Much of the year was quiet with regard to information about the games, as [[Pokémon Yellow Version|Pocket Monsters: Pikachu]] was on its way out in Japan, and {{game|Red and Blue|s}} and the [[Pokémon anime]] were on their way to the United States.<br />

| The final logos of Pocket Monsters Gold and Silver<br />
|}<br />
<br />
Following nearly a year without press releases, the Nintendo site was finally updated with new information on Pocket Monsters Gold and Silver. A revised release date of June 1999 was given and it was announced the games would be compatible with the then soon-to-be-released [[Game Boy Color]].<br />
<br />
[[Ken Sugimori]]'s artwork for {{p|Slowking}}, {{p|Marill}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, and {{p|Hoothoot}} was also released, as were several screens of the new battle system featuring fully colored sprites.<br />
<br />
The battle screens are very similar to the final ones; however, the absence of [[gender]] notation is apparent. Pokémon gender was a previously announced feature, and the display of gender during battle was likely added later as a convenience to players. <br />
<br />
The attack stats window, which in the final version tells players the remaining and total PP of each move, as well as its type, was apparently not fully completed at this point in development.<br />
<br />
The battle system, nearly complete, was demonstrated, including wild Pokémon encounters. The new [[Pokédex]], while close to completion, was still missing several features, such as the [[footprint]] and [[National Pokédex]] number of the Pokémon. The "location", "[[cry]]", and "print" functions were also missing.<br />
<br />
The images released look very similar to the images that appear in the final versions of the games. The locations shown don't appear to be part of the final map, though they look similar. The colors of the locations are more washed out than they are in the final versions, though this may be due to the fact that they are pictures ''of'' a [[Game Boy Color]] screen.<br />

<br />
Since Pokémon Gold and Silver were released, other things have been uncovered that reveal interesting details about the games' development. The final games have a large number of incomplete maps that detail what most [[Johto]] towns looked like during development. One of the most complete prototype maps found in their programming is a rough version of the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]]. Surprisingly, it has several of its attributes defined, such as music, connections to [[Fuchsia City]] and even wild Pokémon found by fishing in a small pool in the area, which other prototype maps do not have. The Safari Zone also appears in the internal list of [[Pokégear]] map locations, along with [[Viridian Forest]], [[Cerulean Cave]], and {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}}. Another complete map is a house in [[Olivine City]], where a woman refers to a pharmacy in [[Ecruteak City]] instead of [[Cianwood City]]. It is unknown if this is a typo made by the game designers or if this means the Cianwood Pharmacy was originally meant to appear in Ecruteak.<br />
<br />
Full maps (minus events) exist for the [[Cinnabar Island]] Lab, indicating Cinnabar Island was originally to make an appearance without the erupted volcano, or at least that the lab was going to remain.<br />
Apart from maps, other uncovered elements include a mine cart image in the cave tileset, and a second card-flipping [[Game Corner]] game. There is also an unused event script, complete with text, which would allow a different event for a level 40 {{p|Entei}}, analogous to the birds in [[Generation I]].<br />
<br />
In addition, the games include large amounts of unreferenced text. For example, one block of text references the fact that [[Honey|Sweet Honey]], which made its debut in [[Generation IV]], was planned as early as [[Generation II]]. Code and text remain for yet another forgotten feature, the ability to name the player's mother. Space is reserved in RAM for two other names as well, which default to RED and GREEN &mdash; the player character and rival from Red and Blue.<br />
<br />
The {{t|Bird}} type from [[Generation I]] remains in [[Generation II]]. This is presumed to be a carryover from the [[Generation I]] game engine, as Gold and Silver are based on it. Also returning from leftover [[Generation I]] code are the [[Town Map]] and [[Poké Flute]] items. Both are named "[[Teru-sama]]" and are unusable, but if hacked to have a use option, the Poké Flute will still function, and the Town Map will attempt to, but fail, as the data it would access is now in a different location.<br />
<br />
There is unused battle data for {{ga|Cal}}, the default opponent in the [[Trainer House]]. There are two parties - one with the basic forms of the [[Johto]] starters and one with the middle forms of the Johto starters. As [[Viridian City]] and therefore Trainer House cannot be legally accessed until late in the game, it is unknown what purpose these parties would have served.<br />
<br />
Another beta remnant is an unused sprite. This sprite is that of the player, only not carrying his pack. This sprite may have been originally intended to be used by the {{ga|Cal}} event, but was later left in favor of the player's own sprite. This sprite is fully inserted in the game, containing all data of a normal overworld sprite, except it is not used by any known event in the game. It may have been intended as the sprite used at the start of the game (when naming the player character).<br />
<br />
There is hidden text for an event related with the [[Burned Tower]], where someone's daughter was missing. It is possible that this event made its final debut as the missing granddaughter in the [[S.S. Aqua]].<br />
<br />
===Beta maps===<br />
Beta maps can be found existing in the final game's code. They appear to be a version between the ones presented originally, and the ones that were final.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
This card's Rainbow Burn attack is similar to an attack of the same name possessed by {{TCG|Neo Revelation}}'s {{TCG ID|Neo Revelation|Ho-Oh|18}}. While this card's version has a lower base power, it gets a larger power boost for each different type of Energy attached to Ho-Oh; this version of the attack is actually stronger than the Neo Revelation version when Ho-Oh has three or more different types of basic Energy attached to it.<br />
===Origin===<br />
Golden Wing's name references {{p|Ho-Oh}}'s status as the [[version mascot]] of {{game|Gold}}. Rainbow Burn reflects a general association between Ho-Oh and rainbows, as noted in many of its [[Pokédex]] entries.<br />
