'''Glitch City''' (Japanese: '''バグった{{tt|町|まち}}''' ''Bug City'') is a generalized term used by players of the [[Pokémon games]] to refer to maps with invalid tile data.

==Generation I==
{{cleanup|section}}
[[File:Glitch City Map.png|thumb|right|A Glitch City in Generation I]]
===Accessing Glitch City===
To access Glitch City, the player must enter a [[Safari Zone|Safari Game]], then immediately after entering, attempt to leave. The attendant will ask if the player wants to leave early, to which the player must answer "no". The player must then reenter the Safari Zone. The game should then be saved and reset. The player must now attempt to exit the Safari Zone. The attendant will ask if the player would like to join a Safari Game, to which the player must also answer "no". The player should then {{m|Fly}} anywhere.

After taking 500 steps, the Safari Zone's PA will ring, and the player will be warped into the Safari Zone [[gate]]. By leaving the gate through the south exit, the player will enter Glitch City.

Glitch City cannot be accessed if the player runs out of steps in [[Celadon City]], [[Cerulean City]], [[Lavender Town]], [[Saffron City]], [[Fuchsia City]], [[Viridian City]], [[Pewter City]], [[Cinnabar Island]], [[Vermilion City]], or inside any building.

===Escaping Glitch City===
The only way to escape the glitch is to {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Teleport}} out of Glitch City. If the player saves in Glitch City and does not have a Pokémon that allows them to leave, they will be unable to escape.

===Explanation===
In the Pokémon games, doors and cave entrances are coded as "warps" that are placed on tiles. Warps have two values: one value specifies which map the player should be warped to, and the other specifies which warp on the map the player should be teleported to (warps can only lead to other warps).

This glitch occurs because the player manages to trick the game into letting him or her out of the Safari Zone while the step timer is still running, by saving the game. When the steps run out, they are warped to the Safari Zone gate, regardless of whether or not they are actually in the Safari Zone.

The reason the player may find themselves in Glitch City upon exiting the gate is because the door that would lead out to [[Fuchsia City]] is coded so that the warp points to warp 4 on the last map the player was on. This would work perfectly normally; however, many areas in Generation I [[Kanto]] lack a warp 4, and so the glitch goes through. The maps that have a warp 4—[[Celadon City]], [[Cerulean City]], [[Lavender Town]], [[Saffron City]], [[Fuchsia City]], [[Viridian City]], [[Pewter City]], [[Cinnabar Island]] and [[Vermilion City]]—do not result in a Glitch City, instead taking the player to wherever the warp 4 is and letting them leave it normally.

Due to warp-breaking, of course, this means that Glitch City is nothing more than a corrupted version of whichever map the player was on when he or she ran out of time. When the [[Town Map]] is viewed in Glitch City, the map will say that the player is in the area they were in just before entering Glitch City, because they technically are in the area, just a corrupted version of it. This is why the Glitch City found by running out on {{rt|17|Kanto}} will cause the player to constantly walk downward and why attempting to use the [[Bicycle]] results in the message "You can't get off here.", and why wild Pokémon data is the same as that of the map that the player entered Glitch City from.

The dimensions of the source map are apparently preserved: going too far in any direction while in a Glitch City will cause the player to walk outside of the map, thus crashing the game. The only crash-free Glitch City is that of [[Pallet Town]], which does not allow the player to move at all. {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}'s [[Game Boy Tower]] mistakes such crashes for a corrupted game.

Although some aspects of the source map of Glitch City are preserved, such as tiles, most other attributes are completely changed, such as what is and isn't walkable terrain. There are essentially five types of tiles in Glitch City: walkable tiles, [[ledge]]s, walls, [[water tile]]s, and traps (which can be walked onto but not walked off of). Map links, which allow players to travel between two adjacent areas without a warp (such as from {{rt|22|Kanto}} to [[Viridian City]]), are also apparently ignored, so if a player manages to navigate to where an adjacent map should be and try to walk into it, the result will be the same as if they walked outside of the map.

Normally {{m|cut}}table trees cannot be cut down in Glitch City, no matter how many times the move is used on it. No signs are readable, and doors and cave entrances cannot be entered. This is because objects (such as the invisible ones placed over signs) and warps (such as those placed over doors and cave entrances) are not present in Glitch City. It is possible to {{m|Surf}} in some cities, even if no [[water tile]]s are visible.

In {{game|Yellow}}, Glitch City has a profound effect on [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Pikachu]]'s overworld AI, causing it to run to and from random places. Walking onto certain glitched tiles also make it disappear, though after the player leaves such tiles, Pikachu will reappear and follow the player's recorded path.

===Specific Glitch Cities===
====Route 1====
In the Glitch City accessible by {{rt|1|Kanto}}, players are limited to about a 15 block space in which they can walk. There is a ledge that the player can jump off, but they will be stuck in a 1x1 space if they do so.

This Glitch City is very similar to that of Pallet Town's.

====Route 20====
In the Glitch City accessed through {{rt|20|Kanto}}, players are sometimes able to Surf north until they reach the barrier that normally prevents them from leaving {{rt|20|Kanto}} to the north.

Because invisible walls exist on the western side of this Glitch City, traveling north is the easiest way to escape it. If the player goes to the westernmost checkerboard pattern of water in the area, goes left of it one step, then back right, and presses start, the entire area will become Surfable water.

====Rock Tunnel====
While this location's Glitch City is not anything special, if the player runs out of time in this area without using {{m|Flash}}, the darkness effect will carry over into the Safari Zone itself. At this point, the player may pay to re-enter the Safari Zone and explore it in its entirety in the dark. Exiting into Glitch City simply results in the effect going away as usual.

====Route 13{{sup/1|Y}}====
In {{game|Yellow}}, if a player goes to {{rt|13|Kanto}} to activate the glitch, after leaving the gate the player will be transported to a Glitch City where any move the player makes will send them to the [[Saffron Gym]]. After leaving the Gym, the player ends up in a completely different Glitch City.

===Other effects===
If the final step is taken as the player jumps a [[ledge]] in an area with a fourth warp, when returning to that area, the player may be able to walk through walls. If it is made while the player is [[spin tile|spinning]], the player will always be spinning while walking, even if this occurs in an area from which it is impossible to enter Glitch City, such as Viridian City.

If the player has one Pokémon in the party that is {{status|poison}}ed, when it faints, the player will appear in front of a Pokémon Center. This makes areas such as [[Cerulean Cave]] and [[Indigo Plateau]] accessible earlier than normal. The glitch is deactivated once a building is entered.

[[Fishing]] or pressing the start button while in Glitch City to bring up the [[menu]] often changes the appearance of the glitched terrain. This is sometimes permanent for the remainder of the time spent in Glitch City, and will at times change all of the tiles into [[water tile]]s.

'''Mewtwo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウツー''' ''Mewtwo'') is a {{type|Psychic}} {{pkmn2|legendary}} Pokémon.

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

It is among the most well-known Pokémon, being the star of [[M01|the first movie]] and, in Generation I, the most powerful Pokémon in regards to its total base stats. It is a member of the [[Mew duo]] along with {{p|Mew}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mewtwo is one of the first [[artificial Pokémon|Pokémon created by science]]. The scientists who created it dreamed of creating the world's strongest Pokémon. It is widely considered unique, because only one survived the cloning process before the facility in which it was created was destroyed. However, this has yet to be fully confirmed.

Mewtwo is a creature with a {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a bipedal, tailed form|humanoid posture}}, but has a few feline features. Mewtwo's body is grayish-purple with a purple underside and a long, purple tail. Mewtwo has three circular digits on each appendage. It has an opposible toe on the inside of each foot, like many real-world primates, as well as two others that face forward. It has purple eyes (sometimes blue when attacking) and two short ears.

One of Mewtwo's most notable features is the tube extending from the back of its skull to its spine. It is most likely a secondary spinal cord, or a system of nerves, allowing for an increased amount of blood and sensory transmission to the brain, heightening its psychic powers.

====Gender differences====
Mewtwo is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
Mewtwo is highly skilled with {{t|Psychic}} powers. It can levitate through use of telekinesis, speak telepathically, and take control of another living being's mind. It has a powerful [[signature move]], {{m|Psystrike}}, and it is also known for its powerful {{m|Shadow Ball}} and {{m|Aura Sphere}}. Mewtwo is also capable of wielding various types of attacks (but to a lesser extent than {{p|Mew}}). To exert its powerful psychic abilities, it will stay motionless for long periods of time in intense concentration to raise its capabilities to their maximum power.

In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}, Mewtwo fights with a highly skilled combination of {{m|Psywave}}s and a giant spoon for long range and close range battles, respectively.

In the anime, Mewtwo also has the ability to telekinetically create a massive hurricane and is constantly protected from harm inside a reflective sphere of psychic energy. Altered in the English version, it is claimed that the hurricane was powerful enough to destroy the planet, as well as Mewtwo being able to block a Pokémon's "special abilities".

===Behavior===
Due to its early visions of the human race, Mewtwo is known to be very aggressive and thinks of nothing but battling and defeating its foes. Its viciousness results from the repeated recombining of its DNA and the loss of its friend {{an|Amber}} (about whom it completely forgot after meeting her as a result of its creators wiping its mind). During the anime special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', however, Mewtwo seems to have developed a very protective and guardian-like nature to the point of surrendering to {{an|Giovanni}} just to keep its fellow clones safe.

===Habitat===
[[File:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Mewtwo, being a cloned Pokémon, has no ''natural'' habitat. However, it has been known to make its hideout in the lowest level of [[Cerulean Cave]]. Also, in the {{pkmn|anime}}, Mewtwo has been seen roaming a large city under the cover of night. It generally likes to be in dark solitude, such as the darkness of a deep cave. However, in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Team]], this artificial Pokémon is said to sleep in a [[Western Cave|cave located in the west]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==History==
According to the [[Pokémon Mansion journals|scientific logs]] found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} of [[Cinnabar Island]], Mewtwo was born of a pregnant {{p|Mew}}, found deep in the jungles of [[Guyana]], whose embryo had been tampered with to alter its DNA. It was held and studied in the mansion where the scientists, including [[Blaine]] and [[Mr. Fuji]], performed horrific gene-splicing experiments that made it vicious and extremely powerful. It eventually broke free of the Mansion (destroying it in the process) and fled. It can be encountered in [[Cerulean Cave]], which is unable to be accessed until after a Trainer has proven his or her skill at [[Indigo Plateau]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Mewtwo anime.png|thumb|right|250px|Mewtwo in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Mewtwo (anime)]]====
While Mewtwo has been the Pokémon of focus of two {{pkmn|movie}}s, it also made brief appearances in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'' and ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' in its body armor. The first instance was when {{an|Giovanni}} used it to battle {{Gary}}'s {{TP|Gary|Arcanine}} and {{p|Nidoking}}. The second time was when Mewtwo totaled Giovanni's headquarters and flew off. While a scene involving Mewtwo and Giovanni did appear in ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]'', it wasn't in the movie. Mewtwo made further appearances during the openings of ''[[M06|Jirachi Wish Maker]]'' standing on a rooftop wearing a cape, in the intro of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', chasing a {{p|Mew}}.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Mewtwo (Adventures)}}
Mewtwo has a similar origin and personality to the Mewtwo that appeared in the anime. It is a genetically engineered Pokémon created by [[Blaine]] for [[Team Rocket]] by splicing Mew's DNA with his own. Blaine later defected from Team Rocket and hid himself away, as both he and Mewtwo were suffering from an illness caused by a shared psychic link due to their mutual DNA. Mewtwo went on a rampage and hid itself in the Cerulean Cave, but {{adv|Red}} was able to capture him with a Master Ball and return him to Blaine so he could attempt to show the mutant compassion and, if possible, find a cure for their illness. Blaine and Mewtwo fought against [[Lance]] two years later, but were defeated when their condition weakened them and Blaine collapsed. The pair were later cured by the flames of {{p|Entei}} whom Blaine had earlier befriended and partnered with. Later, Blaine left Mewtwo on his own, and the legendary Pokémon only returned in the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}} when he learned of Giovanni's plans to use {{adv|Deoxys}} for nefarious purposes. Finally starting to speak through its mind, Mewtwo joined up with Red to attempt to defeat Deoxys and Giovanni, and with Red's help managed to defeat the duo after a tough fight that nearly killed him. It has a Quiet [[nature]].

===In the Pokémon Get da ze! manga===

==Trivia==
* Mewtwo was the first Pokémon seen in the English dub, as it appears at the very beginning of the [[Pokémon Theme|first dub opening]].
* Mewtwo and {{p|Lugia}} have the highest base stat total of all Psychic-types.
* In [[Generation I]], Mewtwo had a base stat total of 590, the highest of any non-glitch Pokémon at the time. The [[Generation II]] special split increased its stat total to 680, where it was later joined by {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 680|several other Pokémon}} and finally surpassed by {{p|Arceus}}'s total of 720, and once again surpassed in the next generation by {{p|Kyurem}}'s total of 700 in one of its new forms.
** Mewtwo is the only Pokémon with a 680 base stat total that is not a [[version mascot]] and is also the only one that is not part of any [[legendary trio]]s.
* A {{shiny}} Mewtwo from {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} will appear black instead of green when viewed through [[Pokémon Stadium 2]].
* A [[Pokémon Mansion journals|journal]] quote from the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} states that Mewtwo's birthday is February 6.
* Mewtwo can learn damaging moves of all types except {{t|Dragon}}.
* An image of Mewtwo is seen on the door to [[Bill]]'s lighthouse in ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', even though Mewtwo was a secret Pokémon in the anime at that time.
* Although intended to be a stronger variation of Mew in all respects, Mewtwo can learn fewer moves, has two lower potential Pokéathlon stats, and has a lower base {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}}.
* Although Mewtwo is a clone of {{p|Mew}}, it comes before Mew in the Pokédex.
* While most other legendary Pokémon that are its equal in terms of [[base stats|base stat total]] have a [[signature move]], Mewtwo did not receive one until [[Generation V]], when it became the only Pokémon able to learn {{m|Psystrike}}.
** This makes it the only [[legendary Pokémon]] to gain a [[signature move]] outside of its [[Generation I|debut generation]].
* Mewtwo is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 680 that cannot learn {{m|AncientPower}} by level up, let alone by any means.
* Mewtwo's base stats are numerically the same as {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}'s, only with a different arrangement.
* Mewtwo's known [[Ability|Abilities]] are shared with another Pokémon, {{p|Vespiquen}}.
* {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Mewtwo as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Mewtwo on one side and the nation's coat of arms on the other.

===Origin===
Like Mew, Mewtwo has some {{wp|feline}} characteristics. Its body structure is much larger as a result of {{wp|gene splicing}}. Mewtwo also shares some aspects with the {{wp|Grey alien}}.

====Name origin====
Mewtwo is a combination of ''{{p|Mew}}'' (the Pokémon it originated from) and ''two'' (indicating that it is a clone). It also sounds somewhat phonetically similar to ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto).

'''Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター''' ''Pocket Monsters''; '''ポケモン''' ''Pokémon'' for short) are {{numpkmn}} known species of creatures that inhabit the [[Pokémon world]], however, it is implied that there are more [[Future generations of Pokémon|waiting to be discovered]]. Inherent to them are several fantastic powers not demonstrated by real animals, such as manipulation of {{t|electric}}ity or {{t|fire}}. Pokémon are shown to exist instead of animals in their world, although animals are also seldom seen in older media. While most Pokémon resemble animals and may behave like them, there are many that do not resemble animals at all; taking on other forms such as plants, inanimate objects, machines, human-like forms or other more enigmatic and exotic appearances. Pokémon inhabit an extremely diverse range of habitats, ranging from the driest deserts to the lushest jungles, the deepest oceans to the highest mountains and everything else in-between, even [[Extraterrestrial Pokémon|space]] and other [[dimensions]]. Pokémon take up various ways of living in those places. However, all can be befriended and made into potential allies.

Many Pokémon are known to [[evolution|evolve]] from or into other Pokémon, a process that typically makes them larger and stronger, and could be seen as the equivalent to "growing up". Pokémon typically know several [[move|techniques]] that they can use in {{pkmn|battle}} or elsewhere, either to defend themselves or their Trainer, or to perform a task. In the anime, most Pokémon are known only to say their name. In the games, each Pokémon has a [[cry|distinct voice associated with each species]].

==In the games==
Pokémon have been, from the very beginning, spoken of as friends and partners to the [[human]]s of the Pokémon world, used to help with various tasks from constructing buildings to exploration. Many people in the Pokémon world take Pokémon with them on a {{pkmn|journey}} to gather [[Badge]]s and compete in the various [[Pokémon League]]s as {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, using them in battles against Pokémon both owned by other Trainers and [[wild Pokémon|found in the wild]]. In [[Generation III]], the concept of [[Pokémon Contest]]s were introduced in which Trainers can compete with their Pokémon as an alternative to battling. This was replaced in [[Generation V]] by the [[Pokémon Musical]].

Across the five [[generation]]s of games, Pokémon are typically found in one of four manners: encountering them in [[tall grass]], finding them in caves or ruins, going [[fishing]] for them, or [[List of in-game trades|trading]] with an [[Non-player character|NPC]]. These are often joined by several more ways in which to encounter Pokémon, such as {{m|surf}}ing on water, {{m|headbutt}}ing trees, or using the [[Poké Radar]].

===Construction===
In the games, Pokémon are no more than fragments of data, identifying certain characteristics inherent to them. As the games have progressed, more data is added to each Pokémon, typically to reference new features introduced in games of the new generation.

The methodology for construction of Pokémon data changes across generations. For the different constructions, see [[Pokémon data structure in Generation I]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation II]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation III]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation IV]], and [[Pokémon data structure in Generation V]].

==In the anime==
In the anime, Pokémon are shown to be creatures with distinctively more human-like qualities than normal animals, with several even [[talking Pokémon|able to speak]]. Some Pokémon have the ability to speak the dubbing language instead of their own names, such as {{MTR}} of {{TRT}}. They also seem to be able to understand [[human]] language, while most humans can't understand Pokémon speak.

The anime takes a clear stance of right and wrong on the use of Pokémon: Trainers such as {{Ash}} are shown to treat their Pokémon with respect, as partners and friends, while evil organizations like [[Team Rocket]] are shown to use Pokémon as mere tools, keeping them in cages, making them fight to exhaustion—a stark contrast to Ash and his {{AP|Pikachu}}, who he treats as his best friend and keeps on his shoulder, rather than in a [[Poké Ball]], because of its own preference.

===History===
The anime has given a more in-depth history of human interaction with Pokémon than is given by the games: [[Poké Ball]]s, for example, have not existed forever, and are in reality an apparently recent development, with one owned by a young {{an|Professor Oak}} being shown to be vastly different than ones used in modern times.

Prior to the invention and mass-production of Poké Balls, people tended to use hollowed-out [[Apricorn]]s, native to the [[Johto]] region, to capture Pokémon, while even further back, Pokémon were not known as "Pokémon" at all, but as "magical creatures" (Japanese: 魔獣 ''majuu''). In these times, many Pokémon were apparently feared because of their powers, sometimes so great that the most powerful of these monsters [[legendary Pokémon|passed into legend]] and were often seen as {{wp|deity|deities}} in their own right.

Interestingly, Ash and his friends, through their interaction with history in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', seemingly invented the term "Pokémon" to refer to these creatures. This, however, creates an {{wp|ontological paradox}}, as their knowledge and use of the word comes only from its wide use in their future time. What may remain true is that the term came into practice elsewhere on its own.

==Marowak's Ghost on Cinnibar strip==
*Could it be possible that the Marowak you run into (along with Mewtwo, Missingno., and 'M) while using the Old Man trick is the same Marowak that can't be captured? --[[User:Kid Sonic|Kid Sonic]] 18:55, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

::Sorry but I disagree, the land strip actually has no defined Pokémon data, hence the game will draw up information for the last list of Pokémon in memory (e.g. if you encounter a Pokémon in Route 1 you will encounter the same list of Pokémon in the land strip). The game also stores such data in this same byte when the name is changed to OLD MAN and then back, that particular Marowak is just because the player had an R in his/her name as 1st 3rd 5th or 7th letter (those letter numbers correspond to a list of Pokémon - species based on actual symbol), the rest of the or for the level ranges of the Pokémon. An extra byte makes a Pokémon appear as a ghost, and the old man trick cannot set that, remember there can are also be ghost Ghastlys too, or technically a ghost of any Pokémon. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 17:38, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

:The Ghost (and any ghost for that matter) will block every Pokéball, regardless of the type. In theory, it would be possible to capture it if a glitch was exploited allowing one to bypass the "This Pokémon cannot be caught." message. However, I cannot find any mention of such a glitch. Presuming that the Marowak ghost was caught, it would be caught as the normal (after being identified) Marowak, which has the normal default moves for such a Marowak anyway. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 09:14, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

The trivia section says this: "Strangely, it will even dodge thrown balls while sleeping. It could also dodge a Master Ball (if traded into the game in Generation III)." How is this strange? It is a ghost, and ghosts are traditionally known to have solid objects pass through them.

'''Ampharos''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''デンリュウ''' ''Denryu'') is an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Flaaffy}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is the final form of {{p|Mareep}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Ampharos appear vastly different to [[#Evolution|its preevolutions]], but it retains many of their features. The wool it had is now entirely gone, and their body is now mostly yellow in coloration, and it now has a white belly. It has black stripes on its neck, ears and tail and the orb on its tail is now red and has gained another smaller orb on its forehead. Its stubby arms resemble flippers.

====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Ampharos gives off so much light that it can be seen even from space. People once used the light of this Pokémon as a beacon, or to send signals across the ocean.

===Behavior===
Ampharos is a gentle Pokémon that spends most of its time grazing in flocks of other Ampharos and its pre-evolutions Mareep and Flaaffy. Because its tail glows brightly, in times of emergency it uses its tail as a beacon in the place of a lighthouse.

===Habitat===
[[File:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
Ampharos can be generally found in grasslands along with their pre-evolutions, but are an uncommon sight.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Ampharos anime.png|thumb|right|250px|Ampharos in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Amphy]]====
[[Jasmine]] has an Ampharos that lights up [[Glitter Lighthouse]] in [[Olivine City]]. It was sick so {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} went to [[Cianwood City]] to pick up medicine. This Ampharos was named "Sparkle" in the dub.

====Other====
Another Ampharos appeared in ''[[AG059|Manectric Charge]]'' under the ownership of {{an|Watt}}. It was used to battle [[May's Skitty]].

===Minor appearances===
An Ampharos was owned by [[McCauley]] in ''[[AG148|A Chip Off the Old Brock]]''.

[[Karsten]] owned an Ampharos in ''[[DP028|Drifloon On the Wind!]]''.

An Ampharos appeared in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]''.

Another Ampharos appeared in ''[[DP130|Frozen on Their Tracks!]]''. It helps in driving a train using its electricity.

==Trivia==
*Ampharos shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Lanturn}}. They are both known as Light Pokémon.
*Despite all of its Pokédex entries mentioning that its tail glows as a beacon, it cannot learn the move {{m|Tail Glow}}. It can, however, learn {{m|Signal Beam}}, which could serve a similar purpose.
*Along with its evolutionary relatives, Ampharos is the only {{type|Electric}} that can learn {{m|Power Gem}}.
*Ampharos is still able to learn {{m|Cotton Spore}} and {{m|Cotton Guard}} by leveling up though it is based on a shorn sheep.
*Despite the fact that its Japanese name means ''electric dragon'', Ampharos cannot learn any {{Type|Dragon}} moves, nor is it in the {{egg|Dragon}} egg group. However, it is used by [[Clair]] in Pokémon Stadium 2.

===Origin===
Ampharos resembles a sheared {{wp|sheep}} that its evolution line leads up to as they lose wool with each evolution. It also shares traits with a {{wp|lighthouse}}, such as its height, stripes and the beacon on the top; the two also share a name. It, as well as its pre-evolutions, may have been based on the title of the science fiction novel ''{{wp|Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?}}''.

====Name origin====
Its name is a combination of ''ampere'', or ''{{wp|amp}}'', a measure of electrical current, and ''pharos'', the Greek word for "lighthouse". Ampharos's Japanese name can be taken to mean 電流 ''denryū'', electric current, or 電竜 ''denryū'', electric dragon, and may include 電球 ''denkyū'', light bulb in its name, referring to its tail.

Valuable item

2010-11-07T18:10:15Z

C Teng: /* Trivia */ redirects to this page

A '''valuable item''' is an [[item]] which generally serves no practical purpose, but can be sold at [[Poké Mart]]s, usually for a high price. In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, it is possible to buy some of these items for a discount (but only one of each per day) on Mondays in the morning in the [[Goldenrod Tunnel]]. Often these items later become [[exchangeable item]]s.

==Bargain Shop==
In the [[Goldenrod Tunnel]] on Monday mornings in the [[Generation II]] games, as well as in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, a man sells a set of valuable items for a discount. However, each one can only be purchased once per week.

As one may notice, the prices shown are around 10% cheaper than the normal sell prices. This is effective in helping players make a profit, albeit a rather small one.

==Trivia==
*The SlowpokeTail is actually a useless item with no function past its monetary value. Although it is said that a Slowpoke will use its tail for fishing, a SlowpokeTail has no effect on fishing at all, nor does it have any effect on {{p|Shellder}} despite the fact that contact with a Slowpoke's tail usually induces a spiral evolution.
* The first time that eating other Pokémon is mentioned explicitly in the games is when a [[Team Rocket]] member mentions the SlowpokeTail's value as a delicacy.
* The Japanese name for nugget, {{tt|金の玉|きんのたま}} ''kin no tama'', literally means "golden ball", which is also a colloquial term for testicles. The man offering you his "golden ball" is a frequent joke amongst Japanese fans, especially since the protagonist is 10 years old.

'''Pokémon Wiki''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンWiki''', ''Pokémon Wiki'') is a {{wp|Japanese language}} Pokémon encyclopedia based on the {{wp|wiki}} concept, and part of [[Encyclopaediae Pokémonis]].

== History ==
Pokémon Wiki was originally set up by {{u|FPU}}. Like [[Bulbapedia]] is a part of [[Bulbagarden]], Pokémon Wiki was originally an extension of its parent website, the [[Pokémon Republic]], and at that time was known as the Pokémon Republic Wiki. However, it soon gained independence from Pokémon Republic, becoming simply Pokémon Wiki.

In early June, 2006, {{u|Sno}}, a user of Pokémon Republic, found both Bulbapedia and [[PokéWiki]] and proposed that FPU contact them about cooperating. FPU agreed, contacting Bulbapedia's own {{u|Zhen Lin}} about a possible alliance. This was realized on June 23, 2006, when Pokémon Wiki became the third member of Encyclopaediae Pokémonis.

Talk:Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions

2009-04-17T17:21:11Z

C Teng: /* Internal clock "glitch" - Ruby/Sapphire? */ new section

So what's the change in the decision? Did Evkl change his mind? I think these combined pages are going to be crowded when listing differences. And it makes other pages like Green, Yellow, and Emerald stick out.

The differences can be listed in separate articles, if they are going to be at all. A summary can be given on this main article, like '''Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver have different sets of wild Pokémon obtainable.''' But, I think such a list can be presented compactly like this:

{| border="1" cellpadding="2" style="margin: auto; border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;"
|- style="background: #ccf;"
! width="50%" | Gold-only
! width="50%" | Silver-only
|-
| colspan="2" |
* a
* b
* c
|-
|
* d
* e
* f
|
* g
* h
* i
|- style="background: #ccf;"
! colspan="2" | Also in Crystal
|-
|
* k
* l
* m
|
* n
* o
* p
|}

Of course, you could vastly simplify it since we aren't discussing Pokémon Crystal. Here's the logic to decide which Pokémon goes where: If a Pokémon is in:
* all 3: don't list.
* none of the 3: don't list.
* in Gold and Silver only: list with '''a b c'''
* in Gold only: list with '''d e f'''
* in Silver only: list with '''g h i'''
* in Gold and Crystal only: list with '''k l m'''
* in Silver and Crystal only: list with '''n o p'''

I think we shouldn't compare with the third of the series in these paired articles though, that can be done in the article for the third game itself.

I can't really think of any other major differences that would require such a detailed explanation though.

For large chunks of information common to all games in a series, perhaps create another article like '''Generation III Hoenn''' or '''Generation II Kanto'''. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 11:10, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)

==Blatant lies==
''Gold and Silver also introduced the concept of [[evolution]] by [[Methods of evolution|methods]] other than [[level]]ing, using an [[evolutionary stone]], or [[Trade|trading]].''

I removed this sentence, since evolutionary stones and trade evolutions were quite obviously already introduced in Generation I. -[[User:Pat|Pat]] 06:13, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

:That's not what it said. It said that GSC introduced new evo methods other than leveling, stones, or trading. It did ''not'' say that it introduced stones and trading as new evo methods other than leveling. [[User:IIMarckus|IIMarckus]] 06:17, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

::Haha. Oh, I'm a douche. -[[User:Pat|Pat]] 03:36, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

==Platinum?==

isn't it a bit strange that its Diamond/Gem Pearl/Gem Platinum/Metal?
now lets Look at this

Gold/Metal Silver/Metal? The name hints it!!

OR they could be pulling a Crystal on Us? [[User:Dakclaw|Dakclaw]] 07:46, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
:What are you saying? That Plantinum is the GS remake? I'd doubt it, why would Johto have a Spear Pillar? Posted by the '''[[User:Optimus35|<sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|Links]]''07:51 17 May 2008'''''

:: What i'm Saying is that in Crystal at the end of the game you can travel to Kanto maybe in Platinum ::you can travel to Johto at the end of the game [[User:Dakclaw|Dakclaw]] 07:53, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

No. That would be terrible, I hate Gen II Kanto and it would destroy any chancce of GSDS. [[User:Sailor Earth|Guardian]][[Special:Contributions/Sailor Earth| of]][[User talk:Sailor Earth| Earth]] 17:23, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

:::So tell me, Dakclaw, what does Crystal have to do with Red, Blue, Green and Yellow? Last time I checked, Crystal/Gem and RedBlueGreenYellow/Colors. Posted by the '''[[User:Optimus35|<sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|Links]]''07:58 17 May 2008'''''
::::Crystal's not even a gem, it's a molecular structure. Anyway... I see what Dakclaw means, with Platinum's name possibly being yet another GSDS hint. But I seriously doubt you'd be able to visit Johto in Platinum... I mean, you could access Kanto in GS, so of course you could access it in Crystal. Why would it be "pulling a Crystal" if we couldn't visit it in DP?
::::Also, this discussion doesn't seem relevant to the article. We'd better stop it before we get in trouble with Sketchies; take it to the forums instead. --[[User:Martonimos|Martonimos]][[User talk:Martonimos|((Talk))]] 08:06, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

==Red not a reference to Special?==
It says that Red's team references Red from Special by including a Pikachu, Snorlax, and Espeon - is this true? It seems more likely (to me, at least) that it's a fairly generic team based on Generation 1 - he has all four starting Pokemon from Red/Green/Blue/Yellow, and the two non-legendary Pokemon that could be found outside of random encounters (though the Eevee has evolved). Does anyone else agree that Red's team referencing Special should be removed from the article?
:I agree. This subject has also come up in the [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Red's Pikachu]] article. [[User:IIMarckus|IIMarckus]] 15:41, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
::Surely it's the other way round, as so much of Special is based on the games? For instance, Gold and Red going to battle at Mt. Silver and Lance telling Silver that he needs to treat his Pokemon with more care. I mean, he doesn't get the team exactly like Red in GS until the GS arc in the manga. I thought it was pretty obvious that Red's manga team is based on his team in Generation II as opposed to the other way around.

=='''Glitches'''==

:I read through the article and didn't find anything on the GS glitch that clones pokémon and I was wondering if it should be added or if there was a reason that it was not added. - ''unsigned comment from {{u|Greenmcr}} ([[User talk:Greenmcr|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Greenmcr|contribs]]) ''

== Internal clock "glitch" - Ruby/Sapphire? ==

The internal clock wore out the game cartridge's battery faster, reducing the time it would last to about 6 years. Ruby/Sapphire has an internal clock (inside Brandon's bedroom, and the internal one that tells how long berries will take to grow). Will the same start to happen to R/S/E?

{{StrategyWiki|Pokémon Gold and Silver}}

'''Pokémon Gold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター {{tt|金|きん}}''' ''Pocket Monsters Gold'') and '''Pokémon Silver Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター {{tt|銀|ぎん}}''' ''Pocket Monsters Silver'') were the fifth and sixth [[Pokémon games]] to be released in Japan, on November 21, 1999. Like {{2v2|Red|Green}} before them, they are paired versions, with little difference aside from available Pokémon.

As Pokémon had become an international phenomenon already with the release of {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}} in North America and other regions, the translated versions of these games were greatly expected, and arrived Stateside on October 15, 2000. Again, much like Red and Green/Blue, Gold and Silver were followed by a third version with minor changes, {{game|Crystal}}, a year later.

Gold and Silver brought with them many changes to the Pokémon world, as the first "new" games. Unlike Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow; Gold and Silver take place in the [[Johto]] region, west of the region that the original games take place in, [[Kanto]]. Despite this, Kanto is visitable later in the game. The player begins his journey in [[New Bark Town]], which is fittingly known as "the Town Where Winds of a New Beginning Blow."

==Plot==
[[Team Rocket]] has returned with a new attitude, since the disappearance of their leader [[Giovanni]], and once again tries to take over the world, starting with the [[Johto]] region. They begin with petty things (such as cutting off the tails of {{p|Slowpoke}} to sell as food for a high price) before becoming more devious, such as a plan to use radio frequencies to artificially induce evolution in some Pokémon, as well as trying to contact their missing leader using radio broadcasts.

The player is called to [[Professor Elm]]'s lab to run an errand. He gives the choice of taking along one of three different Pokémon. {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, or {{p|Totodile}}. The player, known by default as {{ga|Gold}}, meets [[Kanto]]'s own [[Professor Oak]] during an errand for Elm. Oak, convinced that Gold has started his own Pokémon journey, gives him a [[Pokédex]]. On the way back Gold is attacked by a spiteful and mysterious Pokémon trainer. Upon his return to [[New Bark Town]], Gold is informed that someone has broke into [[Professor Elm]]'s lab and has stolen a Pokémon, the same Pokémon that the {{pkmn|Trainer}} from earlier battled with; even more so, the Trainer fits the description of the Pokémon thief. This character's default name is {{ga|Silver}}. He will battle the player at certain points in the game to test the player's Pokémon; being defeated is an indication for the player to level up his or her team. He will always steal for his starter a Pokémon that has a [[elemental types|type]] advantage over the player's chosen one. For example, if the player chooses Cyndaquil, a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon, he will choose Totodile, a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon, giving it an advantage over the {{type2|Fire}} Cyndaquil.

==Blurb==
"Enter a whole new world, with new Pokémon to capture, train and battle! Meet Professor Elm and get the all-new [[PokéGear|Poké Gear]], including [[PokéGear#Map|map]], [[PokéGear#Radio|radio]], [[PokéGear#Phone|cell phone]] and [[PokéGear#Time|clock]]. Set the clock then watch as day turns to night and events take place in real time–and be sure to keep an eye out for Pokémon that come out only at night!"

==Connectivity==
Pokémon Gold and Silver continued the tradition allowing players to trade Pokémon between two cartridges via a [[Game Boy]] [[Link cable|Link Cable]], but also revamped it as well. Gold and Silver (as well as Crystal) introduced backwards-connectivity to the trading processes, allowing players to trade with other Generation II games, as well as Red, Blue and Yellow (and Green, in Japan). This has to be done in order to complete the Pokédex without cheating or using [[glitch]]es, since each of games has version exclusive Pokémon which cannot be obtained in another version.

The games are not compatible with any later released games, such as {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.

==Features==
===Gyms===
There are eight Pokémon Gyms in Johto, each with their own type affiliation. The Gym Leaders are [[Falkner]] ({{t|Flying}}), [[Bugsy]] ({{t|Bug}}), [[Whitney]] ({{t|Normal}}), [[Morty]] ({{t|Ghost}}), [[Chuck]] ({{t|Fighting}}), [[Jasmine]] ({{t|Steel}}), [[Pryce]] ({{t|Ice}}) and [[Clair]] ({{t|Dragon}}).

===Elite Four===
Gold and Silver introduce a new Elite Four syndicate, though it is found at the same location as it previously was in the Red and Blue versions, the [[Indigo Plateau]]. The Elite trainers are [[Will]] ({{t|Psychic}}), [[Bruno]] ({{t|Fighting}}), [[Koga]] ({{t|Poison}}) and [[Karen]] ({{t|Dark}}); the [[Champion]] is [[Lance]], who uses {{t|Dragon}}-type Pokémon.

===Pokémon===
Each game features 100 new Pokémon species, and pre-recorded data each of them, plus the 151 Pokémon of Generation I. Despite this, not all Pokémon are available to the player, regardless of version; trades must occur between players in order to complete their Pokédex without the use of cheats or glitches. {{p|Celebi}} is the only Pokémon in Gold and Silver that ''must'' be acquired through the use of attending either a Nintendo sponsored event, or cheating.

The PokéGear is received at the beginning of the game from the protagonist's mother. It has several functions, some of which will need to be unlocked during the game by receiving special expansion cards. The PokéGear displays the day of the week and the time of day, entered at the beginning of the game, a map of Johto (and later Kanto) once the Map Card is obtained, a cellphone, allowing the user to make calls to people that they've traded phone numbers with, and a radio which allows the player to get tips from Professor Oak and [[DJ Mary]] on Oak's Pokémon Talk, affect how active wild Pokémon are by playing Pokémon March or Pokémon Lullaby on the {{g|Music}} station, or listen to the [[Lucky Channel]] to keep track of the Radio Tower's lottery promotion.

===Apricorns===
More specialized [[Poké Ball]]s were introduced in these games. A [[Lure Ball]] is more effective if used against a Pokémon caught with a [[Fishing|fishing rod]], and a [[Friend Ball]] will make a Pokémon more comfortable and friendly to its trainer much more quickly. To obtain these balls, [[Apricorn]]s must be picked from special plants found throughout Johto, and [[Kurt]] in [[Azalea Town]] will fashion these into the different balls based on their color. However, Kurt can only make one ball at a time, and players must wait until the next day for Kurt to finish the ball. Although these specialized Poké Balls and Apricorns were not in future generations, there were other specialized balls.

===Cloning glitch===
Gold and Silver also introduced the first readily-accessible [[Pokémon cloning|cloning glitch]] in the Pokémon franchise. Unlike the hard-to-use glitch in [[Generation I]], this glitch would not harm the game's save file. It allowed the player to make a perfect copy of one Pokémon and any [[held item]] it was carrying. Numerous tricks could be utilized with this glitch, such as having multiple one-time-only items, like [[Master Ball]]s. This glitch would be repeated in later generations.

===Kanto===
After becoming the {{g|League}} Champion, players can travel to [[Kanto]], the region introduced in Generation I, and see how things have changed over the past three years:

* Due to a power outage, a key is no longer required to open the door to [[Lt. Surge]], and the garbage cans in his Gym are all empty (save for trash).
* A volcano has destroyed everything but the [[Pokémon Center]] on [[Cinnabar Island]], leaving a rain-filled crater behind.
* {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} are no longer found in Kanto, logically because they have already been caught in Generation I. The [[Cerulean Cave]] and {{p|Mewtwo}} are also gone, though a man near the cave ruins does mention the dungeon, and a hidden item called the [[Berserk Gene]] can be found in the water near its former entrance.
* [[Bill]]'s house is still present at the Cerulean Cape, but Bill is currently visiting his family in Johto's [[Goldenrod City]]. The house is being watched over by his grandfather.
* [[Blaine]] has moved his Gym to one of the [[Seafoam Islands]] due to [[Cinnabar Island|Cinnabar]]'s volcanic eruption. As a result, no wild Pokémon can be found in the Seafoam Islands.
* {{ga|Blue}} (Green in the Japanese versions), the rival of Generation I, is now the leader of the [[Viridian City]] Gym. [[Giovanni]] is nowhere to be seen, though he is clearly mentioned many times, as Team Rocket aims to find him.
* {{ga|Red}}, the Generation I protagonist, appears in Johto's [[Mt. Silver]], serving as the game's true final challenge. His highest level Pokémon is a level 81 Pikachu. Red also has a {{p|Snorlax}} at level 75, a {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, and {{p|Charizard}}, each at level 77, and a level 73 {{p|Espeon}}. The six Pokémon are specially obtainable in Pokémon Yellow.
* The {{OBP|Copycat|character}} still lives in [[Saffron City]], but has moved to another area of town. Her old house was demolished to make way for the [[Magnet Train]] station. As compensation, she received a free rail pass from a man at the station, which she gives away to the player after the return of her [[Poké Doll|lost doll]]. According to her mother, this is the same doll that Red exchanged for {{TM|31|Mimic}} in [[Generation I]].
* Kanto Gym Leaders use Generation II Pokémon in addition to Generation I Pokémon.
* Remixes of most of the overworld and battle music from the Generation I games are used. Some notable exceptions include Cinnabar Island's music and the music from various Team Rocket hideouts.
* Most [[route]]s were shortened, but cities and towns generally remained the same size except [[Celadon City]], which shrank slightly.
* Pokémon seen in the wild are different: many Generation II Pokémon can be found. Some Pokémon that were previously restricted to the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] can be caught in wild areas, such as {{p|Rhyhorn}} in {{ka|Victory Road}} and {{p|Kangaskhan}} in [[Rock Tunnel]].
* The entrance to [[Team Rocket]]'s [[Rocket Hideout (Celadon City)|headquarters]] in the basement of the Celadon City [[Rocket Game Corner|Game Corner]] has been removed, although a man in Celadon's Pokémon Center alludes to it.
* The formerly-abandoned [[Power Plant]] is now used to power the new Magnet Train (which may have led to the departure of the Pokémon that once infested the plant in Generation I).
* The {{DL|Cerulean City|bike shop}} in [[Cerulean City]] is closed, and the owners have moved to Goldenrod City in Johto.
* The "coffee man" in Viridian City has now had his coffee, and says, "Hey, kid! I just had a double shot of espresso and I am wired!" He references the fact that in Generation I he taught the player how to catch Pokémon, and asks if the player believes him, but does not attempt to teach this time around.
* The [[Fighting Dojo]]'s master is away training, so the Fighting Dojo only provides a [[Focus Band]] left behind. The [[Kiyo|master]] is training in [[Mt. Mortar]] in Johto. When found and defeated, he will give away a {{p|Tyrogue}}
* The [[Pewter Museum of Science|museum]] in [[Pewter City]] is closed for renovations.
* The other caverns and [[Viridian Forest]] all have the same layout as they did before (with the exceptions of [[Mt. Moon]] and the Seafoam Islands), but reduced in size.
* [[Koga]], the former Gym Leader of [[Fuchsia City]] and now a member of the [[Elite Four]], has been replaced by his daughter [[Janine]].
* The [[Pokémon Tower]] in [[Lavender Town]] has been replaced by a [[Kanto Radio Tower|Radio Tower]], similar to the one in [[Goldenrod City]]. In turn, the Pokémon grave sites were moved into the newly added Soul House. Access to the upper floors of this Radio Tower is restricted, a safety precaution taken as a result of Team Rocket's takeover of [[Johto Radio Tower|Johto's Radio Tower]].
* The Safari Zone is closed while the [[Safari Zone Warden|warden]] is on a vacation. Instead, the Johto Bug-Catching Contest at the National Park takes its place. Through external game manipulation, an unused portal to the Safari Zone in Fuchsia City can be found. Players can use a [[GameShark]] or similar device to enter the unfinished Safari Zone.<ref>http://glitchcity.info/docs/gscsafarizone</ref>
* The [[Underground Path (Routes 7-8)|Underground Path]] from Celadon City to Lavender Town has been sealed indefinitely, ostensibly due to vandalism. A sign cites local complaints about battles there and a local Biker Gang complains about it closing down because it was their base.
* Victory Road's length has been drastically shortened, and no longer includes the barriers, boulders, trainers, and pressure sensors. Trainers can be found outside, but no longer in Victory Road itself.
* Viridian Forest has been reduced to shrubs, and wild Pokémon can only be caught in the grass of what used to be {{Rt|2}}.
* Route 23 has been reduced to a single inside room that leads to Route 22 and Mt. Silver.
The Pokémon Center on Route 4, outside Mt. Moon, is no longer there, leaving the player to trek all the way to Pewter City to heal their Pokemon.

==New features==
Gold and Silver introduced a number of features to the Pokémon video game franchise, many of which set a new standard for every game in the series that followed. Gold and Silver introduced the concept of storing items such as healing items, [[Poké Ball]]s, and [[key item]]s in separate compartments in the [[bag]]. The updated battle screen showed both how much [[experience]] points a Pokémon had until its next level and whether or not an encountered wild Pokémon's species has already been captured. Also, held items raised the bar for strategy, allowing players to outspeed opponents, heal ailments, restore [[HP]] in [[battle]], boost element-specific attacks, or increase the Pokémon's [[happiness]], among other uses.

A [[Time|time system]] was also introduced. Throughout the game, Pokémon appearances are influenced by time of day: morning, day, and night. {{p|Hoothoot}}, for example, only appears at night (since it's an owl-like Pokémon). Certain events are also determined by the day of the week, like the [[Bug-Catching Contest]] which is held in Johto's [[National Park]] on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Depending on the day of the week, either "[[Pokémon March]]" or "[[Pokémon Lullaby]]" can be heard on the PokéGear radio. Pokémon March raises the chance of a Pokémon appearing when the player walks into the grass, while Pokémon Lullaby decreases that chance. Gold and Silver also introduced the concept of [[evolution]] by [[Methods of evolution|methods]] other than [[level]]ing, using an [[evolutionary stone]], or [[Trade|trading]].

===Breeding===
With the introduction of {{pkmn|breeding}}, all Pokémon belong to one or two [[egg group]]s. It is important to note that [[legendary Pokémon]] cannot be bred; they are genderless, and will not breed, even with a {{p|Ditto}} (which can breed with any Pokémon capable of breeding).

A baby Pokémon will be born when a male Pokémon and a female Pokémon that share at least one egg group are left at the {{g|Daycare}}. In the case of Pokémon that are always male ({{p|Hitmontop}}, {{p|Nidoking}}, {{p|Tauros}}, etc.), or Pokémon who can breed but whose gender is unknown ({{p|Magnemite}}, {{p|Voltorb}}), the only way to produce a baby from these species is by breeding them with a Ditto.

A baby Pokémon will inherit the species of its mother (or non-Ditto parent in the case of a Ditto breeding) and inheritable moves from its father (when it's not a Ditto). Fathers always pass down [[TM]] moves that the baby's species could learn, which are valuable (since some are only obtainable one time). If both parents know a move that the baby could learn by increasing its level, the baby is born knowing that move as well. Fathers may also pass down special moves called "egg moves" to the baby that it would not normally be able to learn by leveling up or evolving.

===Shiny Pokémon===
The game introduces {{shiny2}} Pokémon, Pokémon which have a different coloring than their species has normally, and which appear very rarely (a 1 in 8,192 chance). In these games, shiny Pokémon often have better stats than regular Pokémon, but can never achieve maximum stats for that species. There is one exception to the shiny Pokémon system: a [[Red Gyarados]] can be found at the [[Lake of Rage]]. Since it is part of the storyline, it is impossible not to encounter this Pokémon.

===Pokérus===
[[Pokérus]] (a portmanteau of "Pokémon" and "virus") was introduced. Encountering a Pokémon with the virus is even rarer than encountering a shiny Pokémon, with the odds estimated to be somewhere around a 1 in 21,845 chance. Pokérus doubles the special experience (a concept adapted to later installments as [[effort values]]) that the player's Pokémon gain each time the infected Pokémon participates in battle (provided the battle is won and the infected Pokémon does not faint).

===Type and stat changes===
Two new [[elemental types|types]] were introduced, {{type2|Steel}} and {{type2|Dark}} . These two types serve to balance the {{type2|Psychic}}, which previously was only weak to {{type2|Bug}} moves; however, Bug-types lacked any powerful offensive moves in past games. In addition, the Steel and Dark types also balanced the {{type2|Fighting}}, which was only [[super effective]] against {{t|Normal}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{type2|Rock}}s (all of which are rarely used in competitive battling); Steel and Dark are both weak against Fighting. Steel-type Pokémon are known for their very high defense; they are highly resistant to many types and their moves are strong against Ice and Rock-type Pokémon. Dark-types are immune to Psychic-type moves and have moves with malicious-sounding names, like "{{m|Bite}}"(previously of the {{type2|Normal}}) and "{{m|Thief}}", which are super-effective against Psychic-types. Dark-types are also strong against {{type2|Ghost}}s, thus being the only type that has an attack advantage over Ghost-type Pokémon besides Ghost-type moves themselves. Dark-type Pokémon are also weak against Bug-type attacks.

Some type match-ups were changed as well. In Generation I Ghost-type moves had no effect on Psychic-types; this was changed to super-effective as it was in the Pokémon television series. {{type2|Poison}} originally were effective against Bug-types and Bug-types ineffective against Poison; this was changed to Poison doing normal damage to Bug and Bug becoming not very effective against Poison, seriously limiting the effectiveness and usage of both Bug-types and Poison-types. Ice-type moves were also made not very effective against {{type2|Fire}} (previously they did normal damage). In this version several moves had their type changed. For example, the move {{m|Gust}} was a Normal-type in the first generation games but is now a {{type2|Flying}} move; the move Bite was a Normal-type move in the first generation, but now is Dark-type. Two Pokémon, {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}} are now {{t|Electric}}/{{t|Steel}} (in Generation I, they were pure {{t|Electric}}).

Another major change from the original games was the splitting of the {{Stat|Special}} stat into {{Stat|Special Attack}} and {{Stat|Special Defense}}. Again, this increased aspects of strategy, for Pokémon were now more specialized. Some were good special attackers, while others were better physical attackers; the same now held true for Defense and Special Defense. For example, {{p|Cloyster}} has a decent Special stat in Generation I, but in all later games, has a decent Special Attack, but low Special Defense.

==Trivia==
* Copies of Pokémon Gold and Silver typically lose the ability to save after a period of about seven years, due to the internal battery running dry. However, the battery is replaceable with another one of the same kind, although replacing it will reset the game's data. The problem appears less often with {{game|Crystal}}.
**One sign that it will lose the ability to save is that the game will not keep track of the time while the game is not being played.
* Hopes ride high on the assumption that Gold and Silver will get [[Appendix:Pokémon Gold and Silver remakes|remakes]] sometime during [[Generation IV]], much like {{2v2|Red|Green}} were [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|remade]] during Generation III. This is compounded by {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}'s many [[List of cross-generational references|references]] to the events and locations of Gold and Silver, as well as [[List of locations by index number (DS)|in-game data]] that indicates the possibility of trading with a Johto-based game.
* Pokémon Gold and Silver are the only [[Version#Paired versions and third versions|paired versions]] where both the version mascot of the game played and the counterpart game's version mascot are both catchable without trades.
* Pokémon Gold and Silver are the only [[Version#Paired versions and third versions|paired versions]] where Pokémon sprite designs differ between the two games.
* Pokémon Gold and Silver started the trend of having [[legendary Pokémon]] as [[Version mascot|mascots]], and the trend of using types of jewelry or precious metals as names.
* The Johto region's starters are the only set of main series [[starter Pokémon]] to remain solely their primary types of {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, and {{t|Water}} throughout their evolution.
* Pokémon Gold and Silver are the only Pokémon games which contain ''two'' regions with different names.
* None of the [[in-game trades]] in Gold and Silver feature the player trading away ''or'' receiving a {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}, making them the only games in which a player must link up with another player to trade Pokémon of that generation.

{{StrategyWiki|Pokémon Gold and Silver}}

'''Pokémon Gold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター {{tt|金|きん}}''' ''Pocket Monsters Gold'') and '''Pokémon Silver Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター {{tt|銀|ぎん}}''' ''Pocket Monsters Silver'') were the fifth and sixth [[Pokémon games]] to be released in Japan, on November 21, 1999. Like {{2v2|Red|Green}} before them, they are paired versions, with little difference aside from available Pokémon.

As Pokémon had become an international phenomenon already with the release of {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}} in North America and other regions, the translated versions of these games were greatly expected, and arrived Stateside on October 15, 2000. Again, much like Red and Green/Blue, Gold and Silver were followed by a third version with minor changes, {{game|Crystal}}, a year later.

Gold and Silver brought with them many changes to the Pokémon world, as the first "new" games. Unlike Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow; Gold and Silver take place in the [[Johto]] region, west of the region that the original games take place in, [[Kanto]]. Despite this, Kanto is visitable later in the game. The player begins his journey in [[New Bark Town]], which is fittingly known as "the Town Where Winds of a New Beginning Blow."

==Plot==
[[Team Rocket]] has returned with a new attitude, since the disappearance of their leader [[Giovanni]], and once again tries to take over the world, starting with the [[Johto]] region. They begin with petty things (such as cutting off the tails of {{p|Slowpoke}} to sell as food for a high price) before becoming more devious, such as a plan to use radio frequencies to artificially induce evolution in some Pokémon, as well as trying to contact their missing leader using radio broadcasts.

The player is called to [[Professor Elm]]'s lab to run an errand. He gives the choice of taking along one of three different Pokémon. {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, or {{p|Totodile}}. The player, known by default as {{ga|Gold}}, meets [[Kanto]]'s own [[Professor Oak]] during an errand for Elm. Oak, convinced that Gold has started his own Pokémon journey, gives him a [[Pokédex]]. On the way back Gold is attacked by a spiteful and mysterious Pokémon trainer. Upon his return to [[New Bark Town]], Gold is informed that someone has broke into [[Professor Elm]]'s lab and has stolen a Pokémon, the same Pokémon that the {{pkmn|Trainer}} from earlier battled with; even more so, the Trainer fits the description of the Pokémon thief. This character's default name is {{ga|Silver}}. He will battle the player at certain points in the game to test the player's Pokémon; being defeated is an indication for the player to level up his or her team. He will always steal for his starter a Pokémon that has a [[elemental types|type]] advantage over the player's chosen one. For example, if the player chooses Cyndaquil, a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon, he will choose Totodile, a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon, giving it an advantage over the {{type2|Fire}} Cyndaquil.

==Blurb==
"Enter a whole new world, with new Pokémon to capture, train and battle! Meet Professor Elm and get the all-new [[PokéGear|Poké Gear]], including [[PokéGear#Map|map]], [[PokéGear#Radio|radio]], [[PokéGear#Phone|cell phone]] and [[PokéGear#Time|clock]]. Set the clock then watch as day turns to night and events take place in real time–and be sure to keep an eye out for Pokémon that come out only at night!"

==Connectivity==
Pokémon Gold and Silver continued the tradition allowing players to trade Pokémon between two cartridges via a [[Game Boy]] [[Link cable|Link Cable]], but also revamped it as well. Gold and Silver (as well as Crystal) introduced backwards-connectivity to the trading processes, allowing players to trade with other Generation II games, as well as Red, Blue and Yellow (and Green, in Japan). This has to be done in order to complete the Pokédex without cheating or using [[glitch]]es, since each of games has version exclusive Pokémon which cannot be obtained in another version.

The games are not compatible with any later released games, such as {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.

==Features==
===Gyms===
There are eight Pokémon Gyms in Johto, each with their own type affiliation. The Gym Leaders are [[Falkner]] ({{t|Flying}}), [[Bugsy]] ({{t|Bug}}), [[Whitney]] ({{t|Normal}}), [[Morty]] ({{t|Ghost}}), [[Chuck]] ({{t|Fighting}}), [[Jasmine]] ({{t|Steel}}), [[Pryce]] ({{t|Ice}}) and [[Clair]] ({{t|Dragon}}).

===Elite Four===
Gold and Silver introduce a new Elite Four syndicate, though it is found at the same location as it previously was in the Red and Blue versions, the [[Indigo Plateau]]. The Elite trainers are [[Will]] ({{t|Psychic}}), [[Bruno]] ({{t|Fighting}}), [[Koga]] ({{t|Poison}}) and [[Karen]] ({{t|Dark}}); the [[Champion]] is [[Lance]], who uses {{t|Dragon}}-type Pokémon.

===Pokémon===
Each game features 100 new Pokémon species, and pre-recorded data each of them, plus the 151 Pokémon of Generation I. Despite this, not all Pokémon are available to the player, regardless of version; trades must occur between players in order to complete their Pokédex without the use of cheats or glitches. {{p|Celebi}} is the only Pokémon in Gold and Silver that ''must'' be acquired through the use of attending either a Nintendo sponsored event, or cheating.

*{{fnb|1}}Exclusive to Silver in the Japanese versions.
*{{fnb|2}}Exclusive to Gold in the Japanese versions.

===PokéGear===
The PokéGear is received at the beginning of the game from the protagonist's mother. It has several functions, some of which will need to be unlocked during the game by receiving special expansion cards. The PokéGear displays the day of the week and the time of day, entered at the beginning of the game, a map of Johto (and later Kanto) once the Map Card is obtained, a cellphone, allowing the user to make calls to people that they've traded phone numbers with, and a radio which allows the player to get tips from Professor Oak and [[DJ Mary]] on Oak's Pokémon Talk, affect how active wild Pokémon are by playing Pokémon March or Pokémon Lullaby on the {{g|Music}} station, or listen to the [[Lucky Channel]] to keep track of the Radio Tower's lottery promotion.

===Apricorns===
More specialized [[Poké Ball]]s were introduced in these games. A [[Lure Ball]] is more effective if used against a Pokémon caught with a [[Fishing|fishing rod]], and a [[Friend Ball]] will make a Pokémon more comfortable and friendly to its trainer much more quickly. To obtain these balls, [[Apricorn]]s must be picked from special plants found throughout Johto, and [[Kurt]] in [[Azalea Town]] will fashion these into the different balls based on their color. However, Kurt can only make one ball at a time, and players must wait until the next day for Kurt to finish the ball. Although these specialized Poké Balls and Apricorns were not in future generations, there were other specialized balls.

===Cloning glitch===
Gold and Silver also introduced the first readily-accessible [[Pokémon cloning|cloning glitch]] in the Pokémon franchise. Unlike the hard-to-use glitch in [[Generation I]], this glitch would not harm the game's save file. It allowed the player to make a perfect copy of one Pokémon and any [[held item]] it was carrying. Numerous tricks could be utilized with this glitch, such as having multiple one-time-only items, like [[Master Ball]]s. This glitch would be repeated in later generations.

===Kanto===
After becoming the {{g|League}} Champion, players can travel to [[Kanto]], the region introduced in Generation I, and see how things have changed over the past three years:

* Due to a power outage, a key is no longer required to open the door to [[Lt. Surge]], and the garbage cans in his Gym are all empty (save for trash).
* A volcano has destroyed everything but the [[Pokémon Center]] on [[Cinnabar Island]], leaving a rain-filled crater behind.
* {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} are no longer found in Kanto, logically because they have already been caught in Generation I. The [[Cerulean Cave]] and {{p|Mewtwo}} are also gone, though a man near the cave ruins does mention the dungeon, and a hidden item called the [[Berserk Gene]] can be found in the water near its former entrance.
* [[Bill]]'s house is still present at the Cerulean Cape, but Bill is currently visiting his family in Johto's [[Goldenrod City]]. The house is being watched over by his grandfather.
* [[Blaine]] has moved his Gym to one of the [[Seafoam Islands]] due to [[Cinnabar Island|Cinnabar]]'s volcanic eruption. As a result, no wild Pokémon can be found in the Seafoam Islands.
* {{ga|Blue}} (Green in the Japanese versions), the rival of Generation I, is now the leader of the [[Viridian City]] Gym. [[Giovanni]] is nowhere to be seen, though he is clearly mentioned many times, as Team Rocket aims to find him.
* {{ga|Red}}, the Generation I protagonist, appears in Johto's [[Mt. Silver]], serving as the game's true final challenge. His highest level Pokémon is a level 81 Pikachu. Red also has a {{p|Snorlax}} at level 75, a {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, and {{p|Charizard}}, each at level 77, and a level 73 {{p|Espeon}}. The six Pokémon are specially obtainable in Pokémon Yellow.
* The {{OBP|Copycat|character}} still lives in [[Saffron City]], but has moved to another area of town. Her old house was demolished to make way for the [[Magnet Train]] station. As compensation, she received a free rail pass from a man at the station, which she gives away to the player after the return of her [[Poké Doll|lost doll]]. According to her mother, this is the same doll that Red exchanged for {{TM|31|Mimic}} in [[Generation I]].
* Kanto Gym Leaders use Generation II Pokémon in addition to Generation I Pokémon.
* Remixes of most of the overworld and battle music from the Generation I games are used. Some notable exceptions include Cinnabar Island's music and the music from various Team Rocket hideouts.
* Most [[route]]s were shortened, but cities and towns generally remained the same size except [[Celadon City]], which shrank slightly.
* Pokémon seen in the wild are different: many Generation II Pokémon can be found. Some Pokémon that were previously restricted to the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] can be caught in wild areas, such as {{p|Rhyhorn}} in {{ka|Victory Road}} and {{p|Kangaskhan}} in [[Rock Tunnel]].
* The entrance to [[Team Rocket]]'s [[Rocket Hideout (Celadon City)|headquarters]] in the basement of the Celadon City [[Rocket Game Corner|Game Corner]] has been removed, although a man in Celadon's Pokémon Center alludes to it.
* The formerly-abandoned [[Power Plant]] is now used to power the new Magnet Train (which may have led to the departure of the Pokémon that once infested the plant in Generation I).
* The {{DL|Cerulean City|bike shop}} in [[Cerulean City]] is closed, and the owners have moved to Goldenrod City in Johto.
* The "coffee man" in Viridian City has now had his coffee, and says, "Hey, kid! I just had a double shot of espresso and I am wired!" He references the fact that in Generation I he taught the player how to catch Pokémon, and asks if the player believes him, but does not attempt to teach this time around.
* The [[Fighting Dojo]]'s master is away training, so the Fighting Dojo only provides a [[Focus Band]] left behind. The [[Kiyo|master]] is training in [[Mt. Mortar]] in Johto. When found and defeated, he will give away a {{p|Tyrogue}}
* The [[Pewter Museum of Science|museum]] in [[Pewter City]] is closed for renovations.
* The other caverns and [[Viridian Forest]] all have the same layout as they did before (with the exceptions of [[Mt. Moon]] and the Seafoam Islands), but reduced in size.
* [[Koga]], the former Gym Leader of [[Fuchsia City]] and now a member of the [[Elite Four]], has been replaced by his daughter [[Janine]].
* The [[Pokémon Tower]] in [[Lavender Town]] has been replaced by a [[Kanto Radio Tower|Radio Tower]], similar to the one in [[Goldenrod City]]. In turn, the Pokémon grave sites were moved into the newly added Soul House. Access to the upper floors of this Radio Tower is restricted, a safety precaution taken as a result of Team Rocket's takeover of [[Johto Radio Tower|Johto's Radio Tower]].
* The Safari Zone is closed while the [[Safari Zone Warden|warden]] is on a vacation. Instead, the Johto Bug-Catching Contest at the National Park takes its place. Through external game manipulation, an unused portal to the Safari Zone in Fuchsia City can be found. Players can use a [[GameShark]] or similar device to enter the unfinished Safari Zone.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://glitchcity.info/docs/gscsafarizone |title=US Pokemon GSC Safari Zone |publisher=Glitch City Laboratories |accessdate=2007-10}}</ref>
* The [[Underground Path (Routes 7-8)|Underground Path]] from Celadon City to Lavender Town has been sealed indefinitely, ostensibly due to vandalism. A sign cites local complaints about battles there and a local Biker Gang complains about it closing down because it was their base.
* Victory Road's length has been drastically shortened, and no longer includes the barriers, boulders, trainers, and pressure sensors. Trainers can be found outside, but no longer in Victory Road itself.
* Viridian Forest has been reduced to shrubs, and wild Pokémon can only be caught in the grass of what used to be {{Rt|2}}.
* Route 23 has been reduced to a single inside room that leads to Route 22 and Mt. Silver.
The Pokémon Center on Route 4, outside Mt. Moon, is no longer there, leaving the player to trek all the way to Pewter City to heal their Pokemon.

==New features==
Gold and Silver introduced a number of features to the Pokémon video game franchise, many of which set a new standard for every game in the series that followed. Gold and Silver introduced the concept of storing items such as healing items, [[Poké Ball]]s, and [[key item]]s in separate compartments in the [[bag]]. The updated battle screen showed both how much [[experience]] points a Pokémon had until its next level and whether or not an encountered wild Pokémon's species has already been captured. Also, held items raised the bar for strategy, allowing players to outspeed opponents, heal ailments, restore [[HP]] in [[battle]], boost element-specific attacks, or increase the Pokémon's [[happiness]], among other uses.

A [[Time|time system]] was also introduced. Throughout the game, Pokémon appearances are influenced by time of day: morning, day, and night. {{p|Hoothoot}}, for example, only appears at night (since it's an owl-like Pokémon). Certain events are also determined by the day of the week, like the [[Bug-Catching Contest]] which is held in Johto's [[National Park]] on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Depending on the day of the week, either "[[Pokémon March]]" or "[[Pokémon Lullaby]]" can be heard on the PokéGear radio. Pokémon March raises the chance of a Pokémon appearing when the player walks into the grass, while Pokémon Lullaby decreases that chance. Gold and Silver also introduced the concept of [[evolution]] by [[Methods of evolution|methods]] other than [[level]]ing, using an [[evolutionary stone]], or [[Trade|trading]].

===Breeding===
With the introduction of {{pkmn|breeding}}, all Pokémon belong to one or two [[egg group]]s. It is important to note that [[legendary Pokémon]] cannot be bred; they are genderless, and will not breed, even with a {{p|Ditto}} (which can breed with any Pokémon capable of breeding).

A baby Pokémon will be born when a male Pokémon and a female Pokémon that share at least one egg group are left at the {{g|Daycare}}. In the case of Pokémon that are always male ({{p|Hitmontop}}, {{p|Nidoking}}, {{p|Tauros}}, etc.), or Pokémon who can breed but whose gender is unknown ({{p|Magnemite}}, {{p|Voltorb}}), the only way to produce a baby from these species is by breeding them with a Ditto.

A baby Pokémon will inherit the species of its mother (or non-Ditto parent in the case of a Ditto breeding) and inheritable moves from its father (when it's not a Ditto). Fathers always pass down [[TM]] moves that the baby's species could learn, which are valuable (since some are only obtainable one time). If both parents know a move that the baby could learn by increasing its level, the baby is born knowing that move as well. Fathers may also pass down special moves called "egg moves" to the baby that it would not normally be able to learn by leveling up or evolving.

===Shiny Pokémon===
The game introduces {{shiny2}} Pokémon, Pokémon which have a different coloring than their species has normally, and which appear very rarely (a 1 in 8,192 chance). In these games, shiny Pokémon often have better stats than regular Pokémon, but can never achieve maximum stats for that species. There is one exception to the shiny Pokémon system: a [[Red Gyarados]] can be found at the [[Lake of Rage]]. Since it is part of the storyline, it is impossible not to encounter this Pokémon.

===Pokérus===
[[Pokérus]] (a portmanteau of "Pokémon" and "virus") was introduced. Encountering a Pokémon with the virus is even rarer than encountering a shiny Pokémon, with the odds estimated to be somewhere around a 1 in 21,845 chance. Pokérus doubles the special experience (a concept adapted to later installments as [[effort values]]) that the player's Pokémon gain each time the infected Pokémon participates in battle (provided the battle is won and the infected Pokémon does not faint).

===Type and stat changes===
Two new [[elemental types|types]] were introduced, {{type2|Steel}} and {{type2|Dark}} . These two types serve to balance the {{type2|Psychic}}, which previously was only weak to {{type2|Bug}} moves; however, Bug-types lacked any powerful offensive moves in past games. In addition, the Steel and Dark types also balanced the {{type2|Fighting}}, which was only [[super effective]] against {{t|Normal}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{type2|Rock}}s (all of which are rarely used in competitive battling); Steel and Dark are both weak against Fighting. Steel-type Pokémon are known for their very high defense; they are highly resistant to many types and their moves are strong against Ice and Rock-type Pokémon. Dark-types are immune to Psychic-type moves and have moves with malicious-sounding names, like "{{m|Bite}}"(previously of the {{type2|Normal}}) and "{{m|Thief}}", which are super-effective against Psychic-types. Dark-types are also strong against {{type2|Ghost}}s, thus being the only type that has an attack advantage over Ghost-type Pokémon besides Ghost-type moves themselves. Dark-type Pokémon are also weak against Bug-type attacks.

Some type match-ups were changed as well. In Generation I Ghost-type moves had no effect on Psychic-types; this was changed to super-effective as it was in the Pokémon television series. {{type2|Poison}} originally were effective against Bug-types and Bug-types ineffective against Poison; this was changed to Poison doing normal damage to Bug and Bug becoming not very effective against Poison, seriously limiting the effectiveness and usage of both Bug-types and Poison-types. Ice-type moves were also made not very effective against {{type2|Fire}} (previously they did normal damage). In this version several moves had their type changed. For example, the move {{m|Gust}} was a Normal-type in the first generation games but is now a {{type2|Flying}} move; the move Bite was a Normal-type move in the first generation, but now is Dark-type. Two Pokémon, {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}} are now {{t|Electric}}/{{t|Steel}} (in Generation I, they were pure {{t|Electric}}).

Another major change from the original games was the splitting of the {{Stat|Special}} stat into {{Stat|Special Attack}} and {{Stat|Special Defense}}. Again, this increased aspects of strategy, for Pokémon were now more specialized. Some were good special attackers, while others were better physical attackers; the same now held true for Defense and Special Defense. For example, {{p|Cloyster}} has a decent Special stat in Generation I, but in all later games, has a decent Special Attack, but low Special Defense.

==Trivia==
* Copies of Pokémon Gold and Silver typically lose the ability to save after a period of about seven years, due to the internal battery running dry. However, the battery is replaceable with another one of the same kind, although replacing it will reset the game's data. The problem appears less often with {{game|Crystal}}.
**One sign that it will lose the ability to save is that the game will not keep track of the time while the game is not being played.
* Hopes ride high on the assumption that Gold and Silver will get [[Appendix:Pokémon Gold and Silver remakes|remakes]] sometime during [[Generation IV]], much like {{2v2|Red|Green}} were [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|remade]] during Generation III. This is compounded by {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}'s many [[List of cross-generational references|references]] to the events and locations of Gold and Silver, as well as [[List of locations by index number (DS)|in-game data]] that indicates the possibility of trading with a Johto-based game.
* Pokémon Gold and Silver are the only [[Version#Paired versions and third versions|paired versions]] where both the version mascot of the game played and the counterpart game's version mascot are both catchable without trades.
* Pokémon Gold and Silver are the only [[Version#Paired versions and third versions|paired versions]] where Pokémon sprite designs differ between the two games.
* Pokémon Gold and Silver started the trend of having [[legendary Pokémon]] as [[Version mascot|mascots]], and the trend of using types of jewelry or precious metals as names.
* The Johto region's starters are the only set of main series [[starter Pokémon]] to remain solely their primary types of {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, and {{t|Water}} throughout their evolution.
* Pokémon Gold and Silver are the only Pokémon games which contain ''two'' regions with different names.
* None of the [[in-game trades]] in Gold and Silver feature the player trading away ''or'' receiving a {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}, making them the only games in which a player must link up with another player to trade Pokémon of that generation.

[[Image:PokeGear.png|thumb|150px|right|PokéGear artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]]]]
'''Pokémon Gear''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンギア''' ''Pokémon Gear''), or more commonly just '''PokéGear''' (Japanese: '''ポケギア''' ''PokéGear''), is an important [[item]] for {{g|trainer}}s. It looks like a large, advanced, wristwatch, with a symbol resembling an S or a backwards 2 (perhaps the [[Silph Co.]] logo) at the top. It was first introduced in [[Generation II]]; the [[Generation III]] analog to the PokéGear appears to be the [[PokéNav]], while the [[Generation IV]] counterpart is the [[Pokétch]].

==Functions==
The main character of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} receives a PokéGear from their mother at the start of their journey. It has several functions, some of which will need to be unlocked during the game by receiving special expansion cards.

[[Image:PokéGearTime.png|thumb|right|The time function.]]
===Time===
The PokéGear displays the day of the week and the time of day, entered at the beginning of the game.

A glitch in Pokémon Gold and Sliver occurred in which if the functions were scrolled through, the day will instantly change. It was fixed in Pokémon Crystal.

[[Image:PokéGearMap.png|thumb|left|Viewing the [[Johto Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] in the map function.]]

===Map===
The PokéGear displays a map of [[Johto]] and later [[Kanto]].

A Map Card is required for this function; this is obtained from the guide in [[Cherrygrove City]].

[[Image:PokéGearPhone.png|thumb|right|The phone function.]]
===Phone===
The PokéGear will function like a cellphone, allowing the user to make calls to people that they've traded phone numbers with. This allows the player to talk to other characters and learn informaton from them, such as battling tips or when rare Pokémon appear. Up to ten people can be saved onto the phone.

[[Image:PokéGearRadio.png|thumb|left|The radio function.]]

===Radio===
The PokéGear functions as a radio. This allows the player to get tips from [[Professor Oak]] and [[DJ Mary]] on Oak's Pokémon Talk, affect how active wild Pokémon are by playing Pokémon March or Pokémon Lullaby on the Pokémon Music station, or listen to the Lucky Channel to keep track of the [[Johto Radio Tower]]'s lottery promotion.

A Radio Card is required for this function; this is obtained from a quiz host at the [[Johto Radio Tower]].

An EXPN Card gives the radio the ability to tune into certain stations in [[Kanto]]; this is obtained from someone at the [[Kanto Radio Tower]] after restoring the power to Kanto.

==Anime==
[[Image:PokeGear anime.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Misty's PokéGear]]
Many characters in the anime own PokéGears:
*{{mov|Lisa}} gave hers to Ash so that he could keep in contact with Professor Oak in ''[[Spell of the Unown]]''.
*{{Jo|Jimmy}}, {{Jo|Marina}} and [[Vincent]] all own PokéGears. A plot point of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' is that it includes a tracking system to show where the other PokéGear currently is.
For some reason, the backwards 2 was removed from the PokéGears in the dubbing of ''The Legend of Thunder!''
*[[Misty]] also owns one, so that she can keep in contact with {{an|Daisy}} at the Cerulean Gym.

==TCG==

Mt. Silver

{{Infobox location

|location_name=Mt. Silver
|location=West of {{Ka|Victory Road}}
|region=Johto
|generation={{Gen|II}}
}}
'''Mt. Silver''' (Japanese: '''シロガネやま''' ''Shirogane Mountain'') is a large mountain in [[Johto]] located west of {{ka|Victory Road}} and the [[Indigo Plateau]]. Mt. Silver can be reached from [[Kanto]] via [[Route 28]] after receiving the sixteen gym [[badge]]s of both Johto and Kanto. Deep in the caves of Mt. Silver, [[the player]] may {{pkmn|battle}} with {{ga|Red}}. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, it is the home of {{jo|Silver Town}}.

==In the games==
In the games, Mt. Silver is off-limits to all but the most skilled of Trainers. After {{ga|Gold}} or {{ga|Kris}} has received all sixteen badges of Johto and Kanto, [[Professor Oak]] will give him or her permission to travel here.

[[Route 28|The route]] to the area is rough, though no [[HM]]s are explicitly required to reach the [[Pokémon Center]] just outside the entrance. Inside, however, the cave is dark, requiring {{m|Flash}} to see. Many high-level Pokémon reside in the cave, including rare Pokémon not found elsewhere in the Johto region, like {{p|Larvitar}} and {{p|Misdreavus}}.

The cave has only one entrance, unlike all other caves found in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, but goes deep into the mountain. In the cave's final room, the player will encounter {{ga|Red|a familiar face}} who will, wordlessly, challenge him or her to what was the highest-leveled Trainer battle in the history of the Pokémon series, until the release of [[Pokémon Platinum]].

==In the anime==
In the anime, Mt. Silver is the home of {{jo|Silver Town}}, a city that boasts at least 30 inhabitants. Silver Town's main attraction is the [[Silver Conference]], the [[Johto League]]'s yearly tournament that brings tourism to the city.

==Trivia==
*Mt. Silver was called '''Shirogane Mt.''' in the {{v2|Gold and Silver|s}} "Deluxe edition" of the [[Pokémon Master Trainer]] board game. Because its release predated that of the games, it used the Japanese name.
*Despite appearing to be closer to the [[Johto]]-[[Kanto]] border on the Town Map, the entrance to the [[Pokémon Center]] is 17 steps from the border when factoring in only horizontal distance, making it 10 steps farther from Kanto than the doorway of the [[player character]]'s house.
*At level 81, {{ga|Red's Pikachu}}, who is fought here, was the strongest Pokémon of any in-game Trainer until {{game|Platinum}} where {{ga|Pearl}}'s [[Starter Pokémon|starter]] can reach up to level 85.

==In other languages==
* Spanish: '''Monte Plateado''' or '''Cueva Plateada'''
* Italian: '''Monte Argento'''
* German: '''Silberhöhle'''

'''Wally''' (Japanese: '''ミツル''' ''Mitsuru'') is a young, sickly boy who just moved to [[Petalburg City]]. Despite his illness, his dream is to train Pokémon.

His illness is never explained, but because of his symptoms and rapid recovery in clean air, most fans speculate that it is {{wp|asthma}}. Some fans have noted a similarity between Wally and the [[Magical Pokémon Journey]] character [[Peanut]].

==In the games==
[[Image:Wally_game.PNG|thumb|left|Wally's sprite from {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}]]
Wally was a sick young boy who asked [[Norman]], the Petalburg [[Gym Leader]], to help him catch a Pokémon before he moves to [[Verdanturf Town]] to live with his aunt and uncle.

Norman allowed his child, the main character of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} to assist Wally, and loaned Wally a {{p|Zigzagoon}}.

Using this, Wally was able to capture a {{p|Ralts}}.

Wally later shows up again in [[Mauville City]], pleading with his uncle to let him challenge [[Wattson]]. He battles the player to prove his strength, but loses.

Wally eventually runs away from home and challenges the player at the end of {{ho|Victory Road}} in [[Ever Grande City]], seemingly totally recovered from his illness. He remains there, and it is possible to fight him several times per day.

According to the [[Trainer's Eyes]], Wally's strategy is "We let it all hang out." Wally's favorite type of Pokémon is "{{p2|Ralts|The 1st Pokémon I caught}}", and his self-introduction is "Pokémon and I have grown stronger together".

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Wallywallywally.jpg|right]]
Wally's first Pokémon was a Ralts that {{Special|Ruby}} loaned him, and a {{p|Kecleon}} he caught himself. His "starter" Pokémon was a {{p|Treecko}} which he rescued after [[Professor Birch]] lost it in a flood.

Wally asked Norman to teach him about Pokémon and help him catch one, but Norman refused after seeing how sickly Wally was.

Ruby seemed to take quickly to Wally, possibly because Norman DIDN'T like Wally, and decided to help the other boy. Ruby loaned Wally his Ralts, nicknamed "Ruru", and Wally was able to capture a Kecleon.

Unfortunately, before Ruru could be returned to her rightful owner, an earthquake caused Ruby to fall into the sea.

The next time we see Wally, he is rescuing the old man who looks for [[Mirage Island]] in Pacifidlog Town, from {{p|Kyogre}}'s flood. It would seem that Wally had managed to recover much from his illness by then, and had been traveling around [[Hoenn]] for quite some time.

Norman, who had just been passing by, finally agreed to take Wally on as a student, and told him to come to the [[Sky Pillar]].

There, Norman revealed that what he had been training Ruby for since he was very young was to help Norman awaken {{p|Rayquaza}}. Norman could only accomplish this with someone the size of a 10-year old boy.

Even though he's healthier, Wally wears a suit with a respirator built into it.

Wally acquired his {{p|Cacnea}} while traveling through the desert, his Roselia on {{rt|117}}, and Norman gave him his {{p|Flygon}}. Most of this occurred off-panel.

Wally was once believed to be a representation of [[Pokémon Emerald Version|Emerald]] because of his all-green team and mainly green wardrobe. However, he's not a [[Pokédex Holder]] and he debuted long before announcement of Pokémon Emerald, which means he was never to be intended to be Emerald representation. Due to that, a [[Emerald (Special)|new character]] was created for that role.

|}

==In the TCG==
Wally appears on the Supporter card "{{TCG ID|EX Sandstorm|Wally's Training|89}}", which allows a player to search his or her deck for a card that evolves from his or her Active Pokémon, and evolve that Pokémon. This allows one to get around the rule of not being able to evolve a Pokémon on the first turn or the turn the Pokémon is played; however, the player who goes first is no longer allowed to play Supporters on the first turn, so it won't be any help in that circumstance. This card appears in {{TCG|EX Sandstorm}} and {{TCG|EX Emerald}}.

==Trivia==
*Though he is never classified as a "rival" in the games themselves, Wally essentially takes the place of {{ga|Brendan}}/{{ga|May}} as the player's rival after he/she decides to help with [[Professor Birch]]'s studies rather than be a competitive Trainer.
**This also makes him the only rival who is not related to a celebrity, unlike {{ga|Blue}} ([[Professor Oak]]), {{ga|Silver}} ([[Giovanni]][[Giovanni#Giovanni's kid?|?]]), {{ga|May}}/{{ga|Brendan}} ([[Professor Birch]]), and {{ga|Pearl}} ([[Palmer]]).
*** Also, Wally is the only rival not to appear in the anime.

The next time we see Wally, he is rescuing the old man who looks for [[Mirage Island]] in Pacifidlog Town, from {{p|Kyogre}}'s flood. It would seem that Wally had managed to recover much from his illness by then, and had been traveling around [[Hoenn]] for quite some time.

Norman, who had just been passing by, finally agreed to take Wally on as a student, and told him to come to the [[Sky Pillar]].

There, Norman revealed that what he had been training Ruby for since he was very young was to help Norman awaken {{p|Rayquaza}}. Norman could only accomplish this with someone the size of a 10-year old boy.

Even though he's healthier, Wally wears a suit with a respirator built into it.

Wally acquired his {{p|Cacnea}} while traveling through the desert, his Roselia on {{rt|117}}, and Norman gave him his {{p|Flygon}}. Most of this occurred off-panel.

Wally was once believed to be a representation of [[Pokémon Emerald Version|Emerald]] because of his all-green team and mainly green wardrobe. However, he's not a [[Pokédex Holder]] and he debuted long before announcement of Pokémon Emerald, which means he was never to be intended to be Emerald representation. Due to that, a [[Emerald (Special)|new character]] was created for that role.

==In the TCG==
Wally appears on the Supporter card "{{TCG ID|EX Sandstorm|Wally's Training|89}}", which allows a player to search his or her deck for a card that evolves from his or her Active Pokémon, and evolve that Pokémon. This allows one to get around the rule of not being able to evolve a Pokémon on the first turn or the turn the Pokémon is played; however, the player who goes first is no longer allowed to play Supporters on the first turn, so it won't be any help in that circumstance. This card appears in {{TCG|EX Sandstorm}} and {{TCG|EX Emerald}}.

==Trivia==
*Though he is never classified as a "rival" in the games themselves, Wally essentially takes the place of {{ga|Brendan}}/{{ga|May}} as the player's rival after he/she decides to help with [[Professor Birch]]'s studies rather than be a competitive Trainer.
**This also makes him the only rival who is not related to a celebrity, unlike {{ga|Blue}} ([[Professor Oak]]), {{ga|Silver}} ([[Giovanni]][[Giovanni#Giovanni's kid|?]]), {{ga|May}}/{{ga|Brendan}} ([[Professor Birch]]), and {{ga|Pearl}} ([[Palmer]]).
*** Also, Wally is the only rival not to appear in the anime.

'''The Mandarin Island Miss Match''' (Japanese: '''してんのうカンナ！こおりのたたかい!!''' ''{{tt|Kanna|Lorelei}} of the {{tt|Shitennō|Elite Four}}! Ice Battle!!'') is the 99th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on June 3, 1999 and in the United States on April 15, 2000.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==

{{Ash}}, [[Misty]], and {{Tracey}} are on [[Mandarin Island]], and Ash is on a winning streak. He finishes off a {{p|Butterfree}} with {{AP|Bulbasaur}}'s {{m|Razor Leaf}}. Ash starts to get a bit full of himself, then lets known the fact that he is hungry. Misty and Tracey then gets something to eat.

As Ash and Misty eat, Tracey tells that [[Prima]] is going to give a lecture on the island. Misty is ecstatic, and tells Ash and Tracey that Prima (who is better known as Lorelei of the [[Elite Four]]) is her hero. She hears a voice behind her, and turns to see Prima herself! Misty and Tracey introduce themselves while Ash chokes on his sandwich. She walks past them, however, and bends down to look at {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}.

Nearby, {{MTR}} watches from the bushes while [[Jessie]] and [[James]] eat. They peer through their binoculars, and James recognizes Prima. Unfortunately, he doesn't remember who she is. Prima looks out at the ocean, and makes many philosophical comments about nature. But all Ash wants is a [[battle]]. But Prima continues to ignore him. Ash interprets this to mean that she's afraid to battle and goes off in search of someone else. He does find a opponent who accepts his challenge. As Prima watches, Ash offers to let the boy set up the rules and they agree on two [[Pokémon]] each. Ash sends out {{AP|Squirtle}}, and the boy releases a {{p|Persian}}.

Squirtle uses {{m|Water Gun}}, but Persian dodges it. It unleashes a {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack, but Squirtle uses {{m|Withdraw}}. Squirtle then pops out of its shell and {{m|Skull Bash}}es Persian, and it is knocked out. The boy then sends out a {{p|Tauros}}, who {{m|Take Down}}s Squirtle right away knocking it out. Ash withdraws Squirtle, and sends out {{AP|Charizard}}. But Ash still cannot control Charizard and it burns him.

Prima continues to watch as Tauros uses Take Down. Charizard then uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, knocking Tauros in one hit. He then {{m|Fly|flies}} into the air and tries to burn everything in sight. Ash tries to call it back, but the beam from the [[Poké Ball]] misses. When Ash gets burned again, Prima intervenes, sending out her {{p|Slowbro}}. Slowbro uses {{m|Disable}}, immobilizing Charizard in midair. It then brings it down to the ground, and Ash succeeds in calling it back. Prima asks Ash if he knows what he's doing, and he defends himself by saying that he was in the top 16 in the [[Indigo League]]. Prima isn't impressed and starts to leave. She turns and asks them all to come to her demonstration later. They enthusiastically accept.

Later, Ash and {{ashfr|his friends}} watch Prima battle from the stands of Mandarian Island Stadium. [[Team Rocket]] has also snuck in dressed as food venders. James now fully recognizes Prima, and they plan to steal her Pokémon. The demonstration goes on for a while and Prima beats every Pokémon she goes up against. Ash watches intently, determined to try to pick up some tips. After the demonstration, Prima invites Ash and his friends to her house for some [[tea]]. As Misty and Tracey thank her for inviting them and rave about her Pokémon, Ash sits in silence. Suddenly, he speaks up and announces his suspicions that Prima is trying to teach him reverse psychology. Prima tells them that every person has a particular way of acting in and out of battle. She explains to them that she is like the water. She usually "goes with the flow", but when she's in battle, she becomes as cold as ice. She walks outside, and tells Ash that the most important thing is knowing where your strength lies. Ash may be strong in some ways, but he needs to develop what comes from the inside.

Ash then once again challenges Prima to a battle which she accepts. They agree on one Pokémon each, and send out their Pokémon. Ash uses {{AP|Pikachu}}, and Prima chooses {{p|Cloyster}}. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but Cloyster Withdraws into its shell. As a result the attack has no effect. Pikachu uses {{m|Agility}}, but is knocked back by Cloyster's {{m|Reflect}} attack. Pikachu uses {{m|Thunder}} which hits but then Cloyster starts to glow red. Tracey warns Ash that this is {{m|Rage}}, which increases its Attack level. Pikachu tries a {{m|Quick Attack}}, but is pummeled by an {{m|Aurora Beam}} and Take Down. Ash loses.

Prima calls back Cloyster, and looks at Pikachu to see if it is ok. She tells Ash that he has the skills he needs to be a Pokémon Master, but he needs to remember that his Pokémon are the ones who win the [[badge]]s. She tells him that with his Pokémon and friends at his side, he'll always succeed. She then tells him that if he wins all the gym badges in the [[Orange League|Orange Islands League]], he'll be presented with an "Honorable Trainer" trophy. Ash then thanks Prima.

Suddenly, voices sound from above. It's Team Rocket, and they ask if Prima has a recording of her lecture on a CD. She replies that it's on tape only, and whispers to Ash and his friends that it's $18.95. Team Rocket falls out of their [[Transportation in Pokémon|balloon]], then says their [[Team Rocket's mottos|motto]]. Misty correctly guesses that their original plan was to steal Prima's Pokémon, but they tell her that they figured they'd lose. They then decided to stick with the program and steal Pikachu. Ash gets ready to fight, but Prima tells him that she'll take care of it.

She sends out {{p|Jynx}}, who uses {{m|Ice Beam}} and freezes Team Rocket. Jynx then uses {{m|Blizzard}} and blows them into the sky. The pieces from the ice block rain down, causing lots of sparkles in the sky. Everyone watches, amazed. That evening, Prima tells Ash that the nearest [[Trovita Gym|gym]] is on [[Trovita Island]], which is straight across the bay on the other side of Mandarin Island. Ash and his friends thank Prima again for everything that she taught him. They wave farewell, and head towards their next adventure.

== Trivia ==
* [[Professor Oak's lecture]]: {{p|Primeape}}. Oak discusses about Primeapes' bad tempers. Oak gets punched in the face by a Primeape after saying Primeape are troublesome and strange.
* [[Pokémon senryu]] summary: In a dewy grass area, a cute Primeape appears.

=== Dub edits ===
* In the [[dub]], Lorelei is incorrectly referred to as '''Prima'''. This was likely due to "Lorelei" having an extra syllable over "Kanna", Prima's Japanese name. It is also possible that the writer did not know Kanna already had an English name.
[[Image:Capture99.JPG|thumb|The deleted scene]]
* The scene where Ash first challenges Prima to a battle was cut short in the English dub. In the original Japanese version, he challenges her to a battle, but she smiles and doesn’t take him seriously, and he blushes in embarrassment and anger. Ash then says something inappropriate about Misty in front of Prima. This really angers Misty, and she shouts at Ash, and he walks away and finds another trainer to battle. This 25 second segment was cut from the English dub, and in that version, after Ash challenges Prima, it is simply implied that he feels sorry for her because she didn’t accept his challenge.
* In the English dub Prima orders Jynx to use {{m|Ice Beam}}, instead of {{m|Ice Punch}}.

== Most Recent USA Episode ==

As of right now, [[DP060|''Journey to the Unknown!'']] is the most recent episode to have aired in the United States. Barring [[DP056|an unforseen circumstance]], the episode that should air in the United States tomorrow is [[DP061|''Team Shocker'']]. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 21:35, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

== IPGL ==

why???

you and I were getting on well. I was only on a 60% warning, and the only thing i did wrong when you banned me was the debate with DCM, but surely that doenst warrant a ban. I did nothing wrong, that night, and its pretty random to jst randomly ban me, when the debate was over and we were just back to general chit chat. and when you said i bring a bad name to IPGL i advertise IPGL, loads. Like on Ogame, which gets over 10,000 kids, and some of them have come on.

Surely arguing with DCM, isnt worth 40% ban level. I didnt even say 1 insult. I just argued my (your) point. Please a ban like that is so overly harsh. I was getting on well, i was changing so much to try and get you to like me, as everyone else on there i knew was my friend (not sure about Blaze), then DCM just turned on me, what was I to do, I reported it to Magnedeth, and he came and told DCM the rules, and told him he was wrong, and then i got blocked???.

Wings Alexander

C Teng:

[[Image:Wings_alexander.jpg|thumb|right|Wings Alexander]]
'''Wings Alexander''' (Japanese: '''ハヤブサ''' ''Hayabusa'') is a one-time character in the [[Pokémon anime]] who appeared in ''[[EP223|Throwing in the Noctowl]]''. His English voice actor is [[Jimmy Zoppi]] and his Japanese voice actor is 茶風林 ''Chafurin''.

Wings Alexander lives in the [[Whirl Islands]], where he runs an airport. It was through that airport he met [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] and his friends. They had missed the ferry to the mainland, and Wings offered to fly them in his plane.

While helping Wings clean out his hangar, which also served as a home for his Pokémon, the kids learned that he used to be a Pokémon Trainer. His strongest Pokémon was a {{p|Hoothoot}}, which defeated many opponents including a {{p|Machoke}} and {{p|Onix}}. Years later, it evolved into a {{p|Noctowl}}. It now serves as Wings's 'co-pilot,' always sitting in the cockpit while Wings is flying.

When Wings was flying the kids to [[Olivine City]], a severe thunderstorm hit, causing the old plane to fall apart. Thanks to Ash, [[Misty]], [[Brock]] and their Pokémon, as well as Wings's Noctowl, the plane made it successfully to Olivine City. He was also rather kind as he decided to help Team Rocket when their balloon was caught in a storm.

I am '''C Teng''', and I like the [[Pokémon]] [[Pokémon games|games]] and [[Pokémon anime|anime]].

*My favorite game is [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Pokémon Gold]].
*:[http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/User:C_Teng/Vote '''Vote for your favorite Pokémon game here.''']

*This wiki has too many disambiguation pages. If you searched "[[Flying]]," would you be looking for the [[Flying (type)|Flying type of Pokémon]], or the [[Flying (egg group)|Flying egg group]]? And I don't understand at all why there is a [[Smeargle (Pokémon)]] page, but no [[Smeargle]].
*:[http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/showthread.php?t=30346 '''Discuss that here.''']

*I am a [[meta:Separatism|Splittist]] and wonder why [[meta:Mergism|some people]] want to move a well-written article into [[wikipedia:Talk:List of Pokémon anime characters#Merge|a small section on a list]].

'''Janine''' (Japanese: '''アンズ''' ''Anzu'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Fuchsia City]]'s {{pkmn|Gym}}, known officially as the [[Fuchsia Gym]], after her father, [[Koga]], is promoted to the [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation II]]. She specializes in {{type2|Poison}} [[Pokémon]]. She gives the {{Badge|Soul}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who best her. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, her name is accidentally listed as '''Charine'''.

==In the games==
Janine succeeded to the position of [[Gym Leader]] after her father, [[Koga]], became a member of the [[Elite Four]]. Her title is "The Poisonous Ninja Master".

Using a technique of confusion, all the trainers in [[Fuchsia Gym]] disguise themselves as Janine.

Originally, Janine's goal was to use {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon as well as her father. After becoming a Gym Leader, Janine hopes that by applying herself, she'll improve her skills and become ''better'' than her father, as well as {{ga|Gold}}/{{ga|Kris}} from [[Johto]].

===Pokémon===
This listing is for Janine's Pokémon in the video games in which she has appeared.

===Quotes===
''"My father is Gym Leader of this town. I'm {{pkmn|training}} to use Poison Pokémon as well as my father."''

''"Fufufufu... I'm sorry to disappoint you... I'm only joking! I'm the real deal! Janine of Fuchsia Gym, that's me!"''

''"You're a tough one. You definitely won... Here's [[Soul Badge]]. Take it."''

''"I'm going to really apply myself and improve my skills. I want to become better than both father and you!"''

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Janine.PNG|right|frame|Janine]]
Janine is the daughter of [[Koga]], and the new Gym Leader at [[Fuchsia City]]. She does, however, leave town on many occasions to perform various jobs for anyone with the money to hire her. She was shown in volume 136 to be in the middle of such a job, pretending to steal a large pearl to test the security at the {{ci|Goldenrod}} Museum. After completing it, she pauses on a rooftop to wonder what she is doing with her life.

Her father, being both a ninja and a member of [[Team Rocket]], had hoped to make her a member as well, both serving their master, [[Giovanni]]. But with Koga and Giovanni's disappearance, she was left alone and unguided. Searching for not just her father, but a master, Janine found herself in the same situation as {{p|Suicune}}, whom also was searching for a trainer in its upcoming battle.

Suddenly, Suicune appeared before Janine, and challenged her. Suicune seemed initially caught off-guard by her tactics, but soon won. Before he left, Janine expressed her desires for finding her own master, just as she felt Suicune was.

Janine later fought against [[Falkner]] at the Gym Leaders Challenge. Despite overwhelming attacks, she forfeited the match when she left the battlefield, pursuing who she thought was her father. She never did catch the mysterious person, however, and it is unknown if they will ever meet again.

==Trivia==
*Janine is the only [[Gym Leader]] not to appear in the anime so far.
*In Gold, Silver and Crystal, Janine's Pokémon are much weaker than other Kanto Gym Leaders, by 5 or more levels, possibly to show she is still inexperienced. By comparison, Koga and the members of the Elite Four have teams on-par level wise with the Kanto Gym Leaders.

Just because a name could mean multiple things doesn't mean they should be a disambiguation page. For example, if I were searching [[Primeape]], I would not be looking for [[Ash's Primeape]]. Why not just make the [[Primeape (Pokémon)]] page "Primeape," and have a link at the top directing to Ash's primeape?

Bulbapedia:Style primer

2008-07-30T13:29:30Z

C Teng: /* Wikicode */

{{shortcut|2|SP|BP:SP}}
This page is a small list of Bulbapedia's conventional styles. For a full, in-depth explanation, please see the complete {{bp|manual of style}}.

==Wikicode==
As Bulbapedia is a wiki, a special sort of code is used here. To link to another Bulbapedia page, two square brackets on either side of the page title are used (<code>[[]]</code>). They may link to a page that does exist (such as [[Ash Ketchum]]) or a page that does not (such as {{red link|Ash's Mudkip}}). If a page does not exist, it may be linked to anyway, as this is the primary way that a wiki and its users know what new pages to make.

Templates are called with curly brackets, on most keyboards simply capital versions of the square ones (<code>{{}}</code>). Take note that this will include the template in the page, but not link to it. To do this, one would use the normal brackets to link to a page in the <code>Template:</code> namespace.

==Link templates==
{{main|Bulbapedia:Link templates}}
Link templates are an important part of Bulbapedia; indeed, there is at least one on each page. The use of them is ''required'' for all editors. Most link templates are rather short, requiring rather few parameters, often no more than one. Their names, likewise, remain short, with many of them consisting of only one letter.

Like all templates, link templates are called with the curly brackets. Their base page name then follows, and afterwards is one or more parameters, separated from the template name and each other by a vertical pipe (<code>|</code>). In this way, linking to the proper page for the Pikachu species is <code><nowiki>{{p|Pikachu}}</nowiki></code>, rather than the lengthy <code><nowiki>[[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]]</nowiki></code> or the incorrect <code><nowiki>[[Pikachu]]</nowiki></code>.

==Article titles==
All article titles should not be in title case, but rather in normal sentence case, such as with the [[list of Pokémon by index number]]. An exception to this rule is if, in fact, the article is about something with a title, such as the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga or ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.

==The é and other special characters==
When typing out certain words (most often "Pokémon" or something else beginning with "Poké"), editors ought to remember to use the accented é rather than a normal one. Windows users can enter a special code by holding down the Alt key and typing in 130 or 0233 on their keypad, while Mac users can hold the Option key and e, then press e again. Additionally, there is a character palette at the bottom of ''all'' editboxes if a user is unable to otherwise.

Japanese characters may appear as question marks (?) on some older computers. A patch is available for most operating systems to enable Japanese and other Asian languages' characters.

==Grammar==
Correct grammar is required of all editors. Pokémon should always be capitalized with an accented é, while words are spelled correctly, sentences are begun with a capital letter and ended with punctuation, and various other quirks. Essentially, follow the grammar that has been laid down before you, and if possible, improve an article that needs attention with this matter.

The use of second person pronouns ("you", "your", and so on) is discouraged on Bulbapedia, as it appears unprofessional to talk to the audience. Utilizing the passive voice instead will lead to an increase in professional appearance.

==Bias==
Articles on Bulbapedia are intended to be unbiased, with fan opinions like "Misty's Togepi ruined her character" not included in the article itself, but instead in the trivia, if it is an agreed-upon opinion.

==Talk pages==
{{main|Bulbapedia:Talk page}}
All articles in all namespaces have a talk page, which can be used to discuss the article, template, or policy in question. Users also have talk pages, which may be used by others to leave a message, but not to chat.

==Other information==
As this is not a complete instruction manual to using Bulbapedia, it lacks some information that is better discussed in full in the {{bp|manual of style}}. However, neither is a perfect substitute for some lurking and learning through experience. A message on a talk page does not mean that a user is unwelcome on Bulbapedia, merely that they must try harder the next time they edit to follow its style.

C Teng: /* the old ball */

Just wondering where Abra and Phanpy are coming from, as [http://pokefor.greenchu.de/meowth346/gbc/poke-balls/ Pokémon Forever states] "If the wild Pokémon is Magnemite, Grimer, Tangela, Mr.Mime, Eevee, Porygon, Dratini, or Dragonair, then Catch Rate = Catch Rate * 4.0. Please note that while these Pokémon have a greater chance to catch, not all of them can be found in the wild."
[[User:Jshadias|Jshadias]] 09:53, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I'm curious, too. I see various sites that say things like "Pokemon who can run away, like Teddiursa, Tangela, or Raikou", but the game stores a list of Pokemon whom the ball works better on, and that's what I used on PokéFor. --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]] 21:09, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

In that case, somebody remove the two offending, untrue Pogeys?

And Abra really shouldn't be on that list, as it uses Teleport; it doesn't actually run away... [[User:Evkl|Evkl]] 21:45, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Should Anime-only Balls be included in this? I'm thinking of the Dark Balls and whatever it was that Sammy used from movie 4--BJG

There was the Dark Ball and the GS Ball. That's all there have been. I think they would make a useful addition, though. [[User:Fabu-Vinny|Fabu-Vinny]] 19:22, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

== Hyper Ball in manga ==

Do you think it's worth mentioning in the "in the manga" section about the existance of the Hyper Ball? Ash attempts to use it in the EToP manga at the end of issue 4, and is apparently very expensive. [[User:Fsilone|Fsilone]] 02:48, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
:Isn't the Hyper Ball just the Japanese name of the Ultra Ball? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]{{ani|155|Fire echy}}[[User:TTEchidna/GSDS|GSDS!]]''' 03:00, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
::...yeah. It is. And it's rather expensive, too... [[User:Tina|Tina]] [[Special:Contributions/Tina|δ]][[User talk:Tina|♫]] 03:03, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

== Happiness Balls ==

Shouldn't there be a note about the increased Happiness rating that Luxury Balls and Friend Balls produce on captured Pokemon? Or is that just a myth that has no bearing on the game data?
:This is a good question, how come it wasn't answered? [[User:Felinoel|Felinoel]] 21:45, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

== Main Picture ==

Is an SSBM trophy really appropriate for the main picture on this article? I think it should be a plain Pokéball without the trophy base at the bottom - [[User:MTC|MTC]]

I think it looks a lot better, just a sharper image if you know what I mean. And it doesn't matter the source, a Poké Ball is a Poké Ball. [[User:Evkl|evkl]] 19:25, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I think the Same as MTC. It could be the picture of a Pokéball that is in the first opening possibly. [[user:David aipom|David aipom]]

== Team Rocket Balls... ==

I clearly remember seeing black balls thrown by the head of Team Rocket in "Mewtwo's Return" feature length episode. Now it's a bit sad since I juest returned the darn video to the rental store and check on this which I saw just moments ago! From my poor memeory I think they were just black pokeballs with the typicial Team Rocket red R instead of red dot.

They were used to capture the running pokemon (Meoth, Pikachu and the cloned pokemons), though Mewtwo used it's psychich powers to release them, making them somewhat uninteresting...

Actually, I think you're thinking of the PokéBalls being thrown by the Team Rocket grunts at the herd of Tauros that Mewtwo was lifting with Psychic.[[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] 02:00, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

== Ball Images ==

The large images are nice, I admit, but perhaps using sprites would make the tables look neater and, by having ones for the Safari, Ultra and Master Balls, more complete? Given time, I could even make modifications of the sprites for the Generation II Balls. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 20:08, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

== Replacing Images ==

I don't think that the current images for Hoenn Balls and Poke and Great Ball are nice. I think they're ugly imitations of Sugimori Artwork. I have a Sugimori Artworks for almost all PokeBalls (the Johto ones are bad-qualited, though) and I think they're much better. I think we should replace the current images with the Sugimori's ones.
:I dunno, I don't think the current ones look bad at all - just big, given how much they stretch the rows of the table. And how bad quality are you talking for the Johto ones? Call me a sprite fanatic, but I think the third generation item sprites would look best in the tables. The second generation ones would be missing, but, as I said, I could make some custom ones. Also, I'm not particularly fond of the anime Pokéball image, since it's so heavily pixelated... --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 01:36, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
:Actually... now that I think of it, perhaps both of our concerns can be dealt with more easily than I thought. Hold on just a little bit... --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 18:50, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

== One big vs. many small ==
I've been talking with TTE. The idea of breaking some of the meat of this article up still bugs me on some level, but... well, might as well bring the idea to everyone.

The idea, basically, is to start having articles for groups of items as well as individual. This one, for example, would be moved to "Ball", and the lower section would link to the different articles on individual item types. If we do this for this one, we do it for all item groups...

Thoughts? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 02:58, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
:I think it'd be a good idea. After all, we have separate articles for every berry, why shouldn't we for Poké Balls and held items as well? Then, we could categorize them better, without having a gigantic page (which is what the page on [[held items]] is quickly becoming...).

:C'mon, anyone else? --'''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 21:55, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

::Ooh, just had an idea. How about dividing the page into individual sections for each type of ball, going into detail about its catch rate, where it's able to be purchased, and so on? --'''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 15:59, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

== Green Pokeball ==

== Dive Ball ==
What is the increase of efficiency for a dive ball when you are capturing a water/bug hybrid?
:That's the Net Ball that raises the multiplier for Water or Bug Pokémon. Dive Ball in Gen III works better on Pokémon underwater, and in Gen IV works better on Pokémon you encounter while Surfing. Anyway, I think it doesn't stack, but I dunno. If it doesn't stack, it's as listed, but if it does, it's 9x. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 00:19, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
:Does the Dive Ball really have an increased effect while Surfing in D/P? [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] 02:00, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
::I Belive it does. It's text says so. I don't know the rate though.

== Sir Aaron's Staff and the passage of time within the ball. ==

Should Sir Aaron's Staff be considered a pre-pokéball object as well? Also, should it be noted about how time passes for pokémon contained within pokéballs? There have been a few instances where pokémon have spent of years, centuries even, within a pokéball/pokéball like object and not aging or feeling any sort of passage of time.

I think so, it is a method of capturing a Pokémon. <big>[[Image:Ani137MS.gif]][[User:Tesh|'''TESH''']][[Image:Ani233MS.gif]][[User Talk:Tesh|'''TALK''']] [[Image:Ani474MS.gif]][[User:Tesh/Other|'''FUN''']]</big> 16:41, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

This is my fist post (or edit, I'm new)
The passage of time seems to vary between pokéball and pokéball like objects, when in pokéballs, pokémon seem to be conscious (as trainers give commands before releasing them) but don't physically age, but in some other pokéball like object, time passes as if there sleeping while there in the object. amaster6000 11:12, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
:There is obviously very little passage of time in Aaron's staff; long enough for Lucario to stew in his rage, but quick enough apparently for him to still be blind. Also remember that most of those centuries-old Pokémon are usually special specimens--often a Psychic-type or something like [[Lokoko]].--[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 14:58, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

== Gen IV Park Ball ==
Are the links to the Gen II games really necessary? I know that some people have been using it's resemblance to the GS Ball to support the idea of a Gen IV remake of Gold and Silver, but without an actual statement from Nintendo or Game Freak, should we really make it seem like such speculation is factual? --[[User:Dual|Dual]] 13:25, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
