==Name==
I don't think it is called the PokéWalker, I think it is just called the PokéWalk. Could we possibly get a better picture too? The current one is very blurry.
:No, it's PokéWalker, I saw the Pokémon Sunday episode. Where'd you get "PokéWalk" from? [[User:Adamant|Adamant]] 16:03, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

== PokéWalker and DS compatibility? ==

I'm wondering if the PokéWalker is truly compatible with the Nintendo DS, and DS Lite. Does anyone know if it will be DSi exclusive? On the wiki page it says this:
"The PokéWalker is only compatible with Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver using a Nintendo DS, Nintendo DS Lite, or a Nintendo DSi system. "
Is it true? I really hope so. --[[User:Will.kaufhold|form]] 06:14, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
:HGSS, is compatable with ''all'' DS's so therefore so dose the PokéWalker. It will not be only DSi. --[[User:CoolPikachu!|'''☆Cool''']][[User talk:CoolPikachu!|'''ピカチ''']][[Special:Contributions/CoolPikachu!|'''ュウ!''']] 06:20, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

==PokéRadar==
I was wondering why the addition of details on chaining was removed from the page? I have checked the history, and there was no reason. I have tried and tested the method for a long time now, and it has proven to be accurate. {{Unsigned|Ryu Shoji}}
:Um, this is PokéWalker, not Radar article. [[User:Solar Dragon|Solar Dragon]] 16:11, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

- But the 'PokeRadar' is the name of the part of the PokéWalker that is used to encounter wild Pokémon, which has it's own method of chaining. [[User:Ryu Shoji|Ryu Shoji]] 19:28, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

:: And RyuShoji was talking about the PokéRadar function on the Pokéwalker itself. Much like some of the games have PokéRadar, so does the PokéWalker. That's what Ryu was saying! Maybe you should check the edit logs first, Solar Dragon, before assuming what the removed piece of text was? [[User:ASecondOpinion1501|ASecondOpinion1501]] 06:38, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
::: Edity bit: I have just noticed that the PokéRadar section hasn't been removed, just moved to a different section of the page. See [[Pok%C3%A9Walker#Gameplay]] [[User:ASecondOpinion1501|ASecondOpinion1501]] 06:43, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

== EXP etc ==
No info on how much exp you get from walking? I've also heard things such as how a Pokémon can't grow more then one level, and that if they miss moves that they would learn from leveling up if they level up on the PokéWalker. If this stuff is true it should also be mentioned.
Also stuff like what kind of battery it uses, etc. And what are the 'advantaged types' mentioned in the articles of the areas? Are these Pokémon types that deal more then 1 damage with an attack versus a wild Pokémon? [[User:Derian|[[Derian]]]] 19:32, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
:Exp is 1 per step and only 1 level per walk as you said. If anyone wants to add this, the battery is just a watch battery (CR2032) and if it's important, the official website's PokeWalker FAQ estimates a 4 month battery lifetime. We don't really know what the advantaged types do yet. From my experience, they seem to have an affect on the rarity of itemfinder items at the very least. It appears that the step requirements will be (partially?) ignored sometimes as well if an advantaged type Pokemon is walking. They don't seem to affect battles or anything like that. Hopefully the Kanto guide goes into more details about what they do. I'm thinking we'll have the complete lists of all advantage types by around 10/29 when the Kanto guide comes out. ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 23:38, 21 October 2009 (UTC))

:I've found that the pokemon achieves 1 level upon being returned to the Gameboy, no matter how many steps are taken. I'd kept a low-level pokemon in there for quite awhile and amassed tens of thousands of steps, yet only went up 1 level. Likewise, I've had some take far less steps than xp needed to level & still gained a level. I got my level 10 Magikarp up to level 19 very quickly using the PokeWalker, and the xp needed to level up was the same needed when first deposited. I only had to earn a couple hundred xp to evolve into a Gyarados rather than a few thousand. [[User:MarkoOhNo|MarkoOhNo]] 20:37, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

== Memory ==

NGamer thought of this: does the Pokéwalker have flash memory? Or does your pokémon disappear if the batteries run out/are removed? I'd of thought this is pretty important. [[User:Thermorules123|Thermorules123]] 16:51, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
:Your Pokémon will not disappear and in some cases steps and watts won't either, you could loose somewhere around an hour of progress by taking the batteries out so they recommend sending everything back to the DS before changing the batteries. ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 16:54, 1 November 2009 (UTC))

== Course Unlocks ==

When a course is unlocked, is it unlocked on the PokeWalker or on the DS cartridge? I had Yellow Forest unlocked on my copy of SoulSilver, but the card somehow became corrupt around the time the Wi-Fi promotion ended. I should be getting a replacement card in a few days but wonder if I'll still have access to Yellow Forest or if I should just keep my pokemon there until I get at least one Pikachu with Fly, just in case I can't go back.
:The unlocked courses are in with your save file, so unfortunately if your save file becomes corrupt (or you start a new game) and lose the old save file, all the unlocked courses get lost as well. ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 22:23, 13 November 2009 (UTC))
:That stinks. :( Well, guess I'll just have to keep Togepi in Yellow Forest indefinitely & only transfer the loot. At least until I'm able to unlock it for my English versions. It would be cool if transferring things to the game from a PokeWalker which is currently set to Yellow Forest would unlock it on that card too. That would be a great way to spread the unlock.[[User:MarkoOhNo|MarkoOhNo]] 19:15, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

==Required Steps Question==
On each of the course pages, there's a listed amount of steps you have to take before you can encounter a Pokemon/find an item. My question is: Are these Pokemon unlocked "Forever", or only once per Day, or only while that particular Pokemon is in the PokeWalker, or anything else?--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 17:46, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
:Once per day, everyday at midnight the step count resets itself and you will need to rebuild your steps back up to meet that certain Pokémon or find that certain item. I have also heard reports that if you are using the PokéRadar and it hits midnight it will force you out from using it (that does not mean if you are already in a battle, that means if you are in the process of searching for a Pokémon) ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 02:10, 19 November 2009 (UTC))

== W -> w? ==

Now that the {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} page is updated with English box art, should we go ahead and start changing the name of the PokéWalker from PokéWalker to Pokéwalker based on what is written on the boxes? I don't mind doing the changes, but I want to make sure that it's okay before I attempt it :p ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 11:44, 12 December 2009 (UTC))
:Maybe it's better to wait for official confirmation from Pokemon.com or Nintendo. [[User:Tc26/Anime Predictions|tc]][[User:Tc26|²₆]][[User talk:Tc26|tc]][[User:Tc26/Sandbox|26]] 11:53, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
::Okay, that sounds good, that's what I was planning on in the first place, but when I saw that page got updated regardless I figured we might just as well go for it :p It can't be long until they eventually update anyways, so you're right I guess we should just wait. ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 11:56, 12 December 2009 (UTC))
:::I'd say we wait until HGSS itself comes out. Never know if the boxart could change, even slightly, before release. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 08:54, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

== Catch rates ==

What's the chance of a Poké Ball working in the PokéWalker? Does it use each one's individual in-game catch rate, or is it determined another way? [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] wants YOU! [[User:Missingno. Master/The Order of the Glitch/Bulbapedia Branch|Join the Order of the Glitch!]] [[User talk: Missingno. Master|(my talk page)]] 11:15, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

== Man, I'm always full of questions... ==
Before me, anwser Missingno. master before me. But my question is, can the Pokéwalker connect with D/P? I really want to know. -[[User:?????|Question Marx]]
:No. [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❄]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|❅]] 01:25, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

== I have something to add, but I have no idea where to put it... ==

I'm not really fluent in Japanese (I just can read it and I know a few words), so I'll just say what happens based on the picture. Sometimes, if you walk for a while the screen is blank, a happy face or music note appears above the landscape part and if you press the middle button, it says something and you get either 10 or 20 free watts. If it's a straight face, nothing will happen. Can someone add that, please? And if you can, try it and translate the text that it says. Thanks. [[User:Chuck67322|Chuck67322]] 19:08, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
:I think that would be a good thing to add, however I'm not fully sure how it all works. When I can dedicate more time to it, I'll look into it a little bit more so that we can add that, but the guides don't detail anything and I know that they are not limited to the certain amount of watts (they will find items too) ... if no one has added it, in about two weeks I can dedicate some time to filling a section like that in :) ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 10:45, 30 December 2009 (UTC))
::Oh, OK, thanks.
::Edit: I just found out that there's a heart too that gives you 50 watts [[User:Chuck67322|Chuck67322]] 19:38, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Likewise, I've had some take far less steps than xp needed to level & still gained a level. I got my level 10 Magikarp up to level 19 very quickly using the PokeWalker, and the xp needed to level up was the same needed when first deposited. I only had to earn a couple hundred xp to evolve into a Gyarados rather than a few thousand. [[User:MarkoOhNo|MarkoOhNo]] 20:37, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

== Memory ==

NGamer thought of this: does the Pokéwalker have flash memory? Or does your pokémon disappear if the batteries run out/are removed? I'd of thought this is pretty important. [[User:Thermorules123|Thermorules123]] 16:51, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
:Your Pokémon will not disappear and in some cases steps and watts won't either, you could loose somewhere around an hour of progress by taking the batteries out so they recommend sending everything back to the DS before changing the batteries. ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 16:54, 1 November 2009 (UTC))

== Course Unlocks ==

When a course is unlocked, is it unlocked on the PokeWalker or on the DS cartridge? I had Yellow Forest unlocked on my copy of SoulSilver, but the card somehow became corrupt around the time the Wi-Fi promotion ended. I should be getting a replacement card in a few days but wonder if I'll still have access to Yellow Forest or if I should just keep my pokemon there until I get at least one Pikachu with Fly, just in case I can't go back.
:The unlocked courses are in with your save file, so unfortunately if your save file becomes corrupt (or you start a new game) and lose the old save file, all the unlocked courses get lost as well. ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 22:23, 13 November 2009 (UTC))
:That stinks. :( Well, guess I'll just have to keep Togepi in Yellow Forest indefinitely & only transfer the loot. At least until I'm able to unlock it for my English versions. It would be cool if transferring things to the game from a PokeWalker which is currently set to Yellow Forest would unlock it on that card too. That would be a great way to spread the unlock.[[User:MarkoOhNo|MarkoOhNo]] 19:15, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

==Required Steps Question==
On each of the course pages, there's a listed amount of steps you have to take before you can encounter a Pokemon/find an item. My question is: Are these Pokemon unlocked "Forever", or only once per Day, or only while that particular Pokemon is in the PokeWalker, or anything else?--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 17:46, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
:Once per day, everyday at midnight the step count resets itself and you will need to rebuild your steps back up to meet that certain Pokémon or find that certain item. I have also heard reports that if you are using the PokéRadar and it hits midnight it will force you out from using it (that does not mean if you are already in a battle, that means if you are in the process of searching for a Pokémon) ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 02:10, 19 November 2009 (UTC))

== W -> w? ==

Now that the {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} page is updated with English box art, should we go ahead and start changing the name of the PokéWalker from PokéWalker to Pokéwalker based on what is written on the boxes? I don't mind doing the changes, but I want to make sure that it's okay before I attempt it :p ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 11:44, 12 December 2009 (UTC))
:Maybe it's better to wait for official confirmation from Pokemon.com or Nintendo. [[User:Tc26/Anime Predictions|tc]][[User:Tc26|²₆]][[User talk:Tc26|tc]][[User:Tc26/Sandbox|26]] 11:53, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
::Okay, that sounds good, that's what I was planning on in the first place, but when I saw that page got updated regardless I figured we might just as well go for it :p It can't be long until they eventually update anyways, so you're right I guess we should just wait. ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 11:56, 12 December 2009 (UTC))
:::I'd say we wait until HGSS itself comes out. Never know if the boxart could change, even slightly, before release. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 08:54, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

== Catch rates ==

What's the chance of a Poké Ball working in the PokéWalker? Does it use each one's individual in-game catch rate, or is it determined another way? [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] wants YOU! [[User:Missingno. Master/The Order of the Glitch/Bulbapedia Branch|Join the Order of the Glitch!]] [[User talk: Missingno. Master|(my talk page)]] 11:15, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

== Man, I'm always full of questions... ==
Before me, anwser Missingno. master before me. But my question is, can the Pokéwalker connect with D/P? I really want to know. -[[User:?????|Question Marx]]
:No. [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❄]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|❅]] 01:25, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the info! - [[User:?????|Question Marx]]

== I have something to add, but I have no idea where to put it... ==

I'm not really fluent in Japanese (I just can read it and I know a few words), so I'll just say what happens based on the picture. Sometimes, if you walk for a while, a happy face or music note appears above the landscape part and if you press the middle button, it says something and you get either 10 or 20 free watts. If it's a straight face, nothing will happen. Can someone add that, please? And if you can, try it and translate the text that it says. Thanks.

'''From Brags to Riches''' (Japanese: '''開幕！サイユウ大会!!''' ''Opening! {{tt|Saiyū|Ever Grande}} Tournament!!'') is the 127th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 401st episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on May 5, 2005 and in the United States on March 11, 2006.
{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==
{{synopsis cleanup}}
{{Ash}}, [[Morrison]] and a lot of other trainers are waiting to hear the matchups for the second round of the Hoenn League. [[Nurse Joy]] explains that this round will have opponents face off in one-round [[double battles]] in order to advance.

The schedule is finally posted and Morrison will be in the day's first battle. He immediately proceeds to the stadium and faces off against [[Gavin]]. Morrison sends out {{p|Growlithe}} and {{p|Gligar}} to face his opponent's {{p|Marowak}} and {{p|Machamp}}.

Morrison orders a {{m|Flamethrower}} and a {{m|Fury Cutter}}, but Machamp blocks his attacks with {{m|Protect}}. Growlithe desperately tries to evade Marowak's bone attacks, but suffers a lot of damage. Gligar suffers from a {{m|DynamicPunch}}, but quickly counters with a Metal Claw and Machamp is knocked out!

Now it's a 2-on-1 in Morrison's favor. Growlithe tries to use Flamethrower again, but Marowak jumps up and uses {{m|Bone Club}}. Growlithe is out and the match is down to one-on-one.

Marowak uses an {{m|Ice Beam}} to try and freeze Gligar while launching a {{m|Bonemerang}}. But Gligar counters the Bonemerang with Iron Tail, sending the bone flying back at Marowak and knocking it out.

Later that day, Ash stands at the same battlefield ready for his first match. He sends out {{TP|Ash|Corphish}} and {{TP|Ash|Torkoal}} to do battle with a {{p|Swalot}} and {{p|Tropius}}. Swalot quickly proves to be the more difficult opponent, with most attacks simply bouncing off (much like [[Ash's Muk]] in its first [[Indigo League]] battle).

Tropius begins to charge up a SolarBeam while Torkoal uses Flamethrower followed by Overheat. The combination of force from both attacks results in a double-knockout!

Now Corphish has to face Swalot alone. Things look bad for Ash when Swalot launches a {{m|Shock Wave}} attack. But Ash gets the idea to have Corphish use {{m|BubbleBeam}} inside Swalot's mouth and explode. When the smoke cleared, Swalot is unable to battle and Corphish won. Now, Ash is qualified for the next round.

She [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Chansey}} via [[happiness]]. She is the final form of {{p|Happiny}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Blissey has a large egg shaped body, one half pink and the other white. She has small fluffy ears and wing-like appendages at the end of her small arms, she seems she has lost her tail she had as a Chansey. She also has a pink pouch on her belly with an egg inside.

====Gender differences====
Blissey is a female-only species with no male counterpart.

====Special abilities====
It is said that anyone who takes one bite of a Blissey's egg will become unfailingly caring and pleasant to everyone.

Blissey, and her pre-evolved form, {{p|Chansey}}, are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learn {{m|Softboiled}} naturally. However, {{p|Mew}} could learn it from a TM in [[Generation I]], while members of the {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Togepi}} families can be tutored the move in [[Generation III]]. {{p|Smeargle}} can also {{m|Sketch}} the move.

===Behavior===
Blissey is an extremely compassionate [[Pokémon]] by nature. If it sees a sick Pokémon, it will attempt to nurse the injured Pokémon back to health. Blissey's fluffy fur allows it to sense feelings of sadness. Upon sensing any sadness, this Pokémon will race to the source of the sadness, no matter the distance, and share its egg of happiness that instantly makes a person smile.

===Sprites===
{{Sprite|
type=normal|
gen=2|
gender=none|
ndex=242|
name=Blissey|
}}

==Trivia==
* Of all Pokémon, Blissey's HP [[base stats|base stat]] is the highest, at 255, giving it the ability to have the highest HP of any other Pokémon in the games (with a total of 714 HP if 252 HP EVs are added and if it has 31 HP IVs).
** Blissey also has the highest base stat in one of the six stats, out of all Pokémon.
* Blissey has the highest base [[experience]] yield of all Pokémon, tied with its pre-evolutions and {{p|Arceus}}. That means a Blissey would yield 13,933 experience points when defeated if it is at [[level]] 100 and belongs to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.
* Blissey, and its evolution family, Happiny and Chansey, have the most in-game items associated with them. This includes: [[Lucky Punch]], [[Lucky Egg]], [[Incense#Luck Incense|Luck Incense]] and the {{evostone|Oval Stone}}.
* Blissey shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Togetic}}. They are both known as Happiness Pokémon.
* In [[Generation III]], Blissey learns a move earlier than its pre-evolved form, Chansey. Chansey learns {{m|Egg Bomb}} at level 35, whilst Blissey learns it at level 28.
===Origin===
It may be based on a nurse. Design-wise, it appears to have some physical similarities to [[Nurse Joy]] from the {{pkmn|anime}} in both color and hair.

====Name origin====
Blissey's name comes from the word ''bliss'', as in happiness. Its Japanese name may be a combination of ''happiness'' and ''nurse''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Heiteira - From ''heiter'' (happy) and ''Ei'' (egg).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Leuphorie - From ''l'oeuf'' (the egg) and ''euphorie'' ({{wp|Euphoria (emotion)|euphoria}}).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 해피나스 ''Haepinaseu''

'''Torment''' (Japanese: '''いちゃもん''' ''Falsely Accuse'') is a non-damaging {{type2|Dark}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

==Effect==
Torment prevents the target from using the same move twice in a row. If the target is using a Choice item or only knows one move, the target will be forced to use {{m|Struggle}} every second round.

==In the Anime==
'''{{p|Banette}}'''. Banette stops the opponent using the same move twice.
* Used by [[Harley]]'s {{p|Banette}} in ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]''.

It was first broadcast in Japan on February 10, 2005, in the UK on January 30, 2006 and in the United States on April 1, 2006.
{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==

Everyone is going to [[Pacifidlog Town]] so {{an|May}} can participate in a {{pkmn|Contest}}. Two islands come into sight, and the engine breaks. They land on the left island while the captain fixes the engine. He tells {{Ash}} it might take a few hours to fix, and tells them that if they want to be on time for the Contest, they could take a ferry on the other side of the island.

Soon, they come across a group of {{p|Donphan}} using {{m|Rollout}}, and almost get run over. [[Brock]] explains that it is mating season and they are trying to impress the females. The same Donphan rolls towards them again, so they run away and leave the area. When they find a deserted area, they stop to rest.

Suddenly, a female Donphan shows up and a bunch of males come over to impress it. Ash and co. run away again. They call out {{TP|Brock|Mudkip}} and {{AP|Corphish}} to protect them, since {{type2|Water}}s are super effective on {{type2|Ground}}s.

While this is going on, [[Team Rocket]] watches the Donphan from the top of a hill. As usual, Meowth suggests catching one and giving it to their boss. They start setting up some nets as a female rolls by. They try to figure out where it was going, but get squashed by more males chasing it. Jessie tells James to have {{TP|James|Chimecho}} heal them, but he startles them instead by making it use {{m|Astonish}}.

They notice some Donphan with mates up ahead. Everyone comments on them, but another Donphan starts chasing them. The Pokémon attack it, and knock it into a rock. Brock bandages its nose, but suddenly a shiny Donphan comes over and the injured Donphan chases after it.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket is trying to catch a Donphan, but they just get squashed.

Ash sees the injured Donphan again as it tries to impress the female, but it just gets knocked out of the way by some other Donphan. As they watch, {{AP|Snorunt}} comes out of its [[Poké Ball]] and uses {{m|Ice Beam}}. Excited, Ash tells it to use the move again, and it freezes the ground under the Donphan, making them slip. The shiny female expresses its disapproval and walks away. [[Max]] says they shouldn't have brought out Snorunt, so Ash tries to recall it. However, it just runs away so they chase after it.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket has made a pitfall trap, and they're all congratulating each other. Unnoticed, Snorunt walks up and freezes them. Before the ice can melt, more Donphan roll by and crash into them, blasting them off again.

Suddenly, a number of Donphan roll at Ash. Brock and Max run one way, while Ash and May go the other. Ash and May get to the ferry, but May tells Ash that she won't get on, because even though, she'll miss the contest, she won't leave her brother. She remembers leaving her house and promising her mom to take care of Max, and Ash agrees. They head off.

Brock and Max see the injured Donphan, and ask it if it had any luck. It tells them that it didn't.

Meanwhile, May and Ash see the shiny female. May gives it some Pokémon food and tells it about the injured Donphan. Brock and Max find Ash and May. The injured Donphan also finds the shiny Donphan and starts using Rollout, but is knocked away by another male. All the other Donphan start rolling around the female, but the injured Donphan gets annoyed and knocks them all away. It starts to roll off with the female, but they both get caught in a net as Team Rocket appears. Ash wants to battle them, but May interrupts and scolds them, complaining that she would be in Pacifidlog if it wasn't for them. Team Rocket gets worried.

May sends out her Pokémon. {{TP|May|Beautifly}} pulls the Donphan away with {{m|String Shot}}, {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} cuts the net with {{m|Razor Leaf}}, {{TP|May|Skitty}} uses {{m|DoubleSlap}} on them, and {{TP|May|Combusken}} uses {{m|Flamethrower}}. Finally, the two Donphan use Rollout and blast them off again. Everyone thanks them and congratulates the injured Donphan on getting the shiny female. Both Pokémon smile.

In the evening, they reach the harbor. As they look at Pacifidlog on the horizon, Ash says that they could have done it if Max hadn't gotten lost. Max says sorry but May tells him it was the Donphan messing everything up, not him.

Suddenly, they hear the captain calling out that he fixed the engine, so they get on board the boat. While they head toward Pacifidlog, the captain says that they are lucky because if he hadn't gotten there then, he would have thought that they got on the ferry. Max tells May that now she can be in the Contest.

I don't think it does open its mouth, because in ''[[AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let in Snorunt]]'', [[Ash's Snorunt]] was eating an apple and its mouth was closed.

'''Dragonair''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ハクリュー''' ''Hakuryu'') is a {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dratini}} starting at [[level]] 30, and evolves into {{p|Dragonite}} starting at level 55.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Dragonair are long, serpentine Pokémon that can be up to 13 feet long. They have dark, glossy eyes and a small, unicorn-like horn on their foreheads. On either side of their heads are small feathery wings. Dragonair are covered in sapphire-blue scales, except for their bellies, which are a bright white. A feature unique to Dragonair are the small blue orbs that appear under their necks and on the ends of their tails. They somewhat resemble larger versions of their pre-evolutionary forms.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Dragonair are said to have the ability to control the weather and surrounding climate; they also give out a distinct, gentle aura that can be felt by humans. Many people have also seen these Pokémon flying, even though they have no wings (except for the small wings on their heads, which are too small to assist them in flight). Dragonair also host a large amount of energy within their bodies which they discharge from their crystals, allowing them to change the weather. Dragonair's orb can be used as a source of light.

===Behavior===
Dragonair are docile Pokémon that give out a gentle aura that can be felt by people nearby. Although shy and protective of their habitat, they are also very powerful dragon Pokémon.
Dragonair have the ability to {{a|Shed Skin|shed their skin}}, ridding their bodies of unwanted [[status ailment|ailments]].

===Habitat===
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
Dragonair are rare Pokémon that often inhabit lakes and seas.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Dragonair anime.jpg|right|220px|thumb|Dragonair in the anime]]
Dragonair first appeared in the [[banned episode]], [[EP035]] as a Dratini the [[Kaiser|warden]] of the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] was protecting. It [[Evolution|evolved]] later in the episode.

[[Clair]]'s Dratini evolved into a {{TP|Clair|Dragonair}} in ''[[EP251|Beauty is Skin Deep]]''.

In ''[[AG152|On Olden Pond]]'', a Dragonair was living in a lake that [[Mr. Saridakis]] once planned to build a luxury resort on.

Dragonair also made a cameo in the [[PK04|second Pikachu movie]], appearing after the storm flying around the rainbow.

==Trivia==
* The prototype name for Dragonair was "Dragyn", a play on the word "dragon".
* Dragonair is one of a few Pokémon who shrinks when it [[evolution|evolves]], alongside {{p|Gloom}} into {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Porygon}} into {{p|Porygon2}}, and {{p|Haunter}} into {{p|Gengar}}.
* Despite being said to be able to change the weather as one of its natural abilities, Dragonair needs to use [[TM]]s to learn {{m|Hail}}, {{m|Sunny Day}}, {{m|Rain Dance}}, and {{m|Sandstorm}}.
* Though mentioned and seen in the anime to have the ability to fly, Dragonair is unable to use the [[HM]] {{m|Fly}}, or any other {{type2|Flying}} moves for that matter.
* Dragonair gains the ability to evolve into its next form at the highest level of any Pokémon, 55. It shares this distinction with {{p|Pupitar}}.
* In [[Blackthorn City]], a woman is willing to trade her {{p|Rhydon}} for a female Dragonair. This makes Dragonair the only Pokémon to be required to be a certain gender for an in-game trade.
* On [[Route 45]], level 10 Dragonair can be found by [[fishing]] though Dratini don't evolve until level 30.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on {{wp|sea serpent}}s or ''lóng'', traditional {{wp|Chinese dragon}}s who bring good luck.
====Name origin====
Dragonair's name appears to be a combination of ''dragon'' and ''air'', referring to its ability to change the weather, or "lair", the home of a dragon. It may also be a play on the word ''debonair''. ''Hakuryū'' could be taken to mean 白竜, white dragon. Hakuryu was also the name of the dragonlike companion of Hakai from the legend of the [[wp:Journey to the West|journey to the west]] in Buddhist lore.

'''A Corphish Out of Water''' (Japanese: '''走れサトシ！キバニアの川を越え！''' ''Run {{tt|Satoshi|Ash}}! Cross the {{tt|Kibanha|Carvanha}} River!'') is the 24th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 298th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on May 8, 2003 and in the United States on February 28, 2004.

{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==
The episode starts with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|company}} camped out near a lake. Ash was cleaning his [[Poké Ball]]s in preparation for his rematch with [[Brawly]]. {{an|May}} comments that Ash was really working hard. [[Max]] then commented that she should follow Ash's example. After Ash finished speaking to his Pokémon, {{AP|Corphish}} wandered away after it spotted a piece of seaweed. It began to eat the long piece of seaweed which was tangled up with some buoys attached to a rope. It ate the buoys as well. Ash told it to stop saying that it was going to get sick. Corphish pulled on the rope causing it to snap. Its claw went flying backwards and smacked Ash. Later, Ash introduced Corphish to all of the Pokémon. Corphish greeted them back by smacking them. May grabbed her Pokémon and began yelling at it, saying that it would never make friends that way. [[Brock]] disagreed, saying that it might be how Corphish say hello.

Later during breakfast, May notices that her {{TP|May|Wurmple|Beautifly}} was not eating and asked if it was sick. {{TP|May|Torchic|Blaziken}} offered its own food to it but it still refused. Corphish then appeared out of nowhere and began eating both Wurmple and Torchic's food. All of a sudden, a robotic hand comes from above and grabs {{AP|Pikachu}}. [[Team Rocket]] then start their [[Team Rocket motto|motto]] wearing Corphish claws. They put Pikachu inside an electric-proof cage, rendering its [[Electric (type)|electric]] attacks useless. May then told her Wurmple to use {{m|String Shot}} on Team Rocket's balloon. All four [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainers]] grabbed on to the string of silk trying to hold Team Rocket back. Ash then made the mistake of telling Corphish to help. When it grabbed the string, it snapped it causing Team Rockets balloon to go flying out of control and crash. May started to yell at Corphish but Max said that it was Ash's fault for telling it to help. They then pursued Team Rocket.

It didn't take them long to find them. Ash commanded Corphish to attack with {{m|BubbleBeam}} which caused Pikachu's cage to go flying. [[James]] attempted to stop them with {{TP|James|Cacnea}} but it turned around and hugged him. [[Jessie]] then called out {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} who caught Pikachu's cage with its tail. May then told Wurmple to use String Shot to grab Pikachu's cage. It worked and Pikachu was back in Ash's arms. May thanked Wurmple saying that it was the best. Jessie felt the need to show off her {{TP|Jessie|Wurmple|Dustox}} as she thought hers was better. Brock then said that all Wurmple looked the same to him. May and Jessie began to argue with each other over whose Wurmple was cuter. Then Jessie's Wurmple started to glow. A few seconds later, May's Wurmple also started to glow. Both Wurmple then evolve into {{p|Silcoon}}, or so Jessie thought. When Jessie picked it up, James and {{MTR}} noticed it looked {{p|Cascoon|different}} from May's Silcoon. But they ignored it. They attacked Ash again but he countered with Corphish's {{m|Crabhammer}} which sent Cacnea flying backwards. Ash then told Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} which sent Team Rocket [[blasting off]].

As they began to celebrate their victory, Corphish's skin turned bright red and it falls over. Brock checked its temperature and discovered it had a fever. Ash reached for its Poké Ball but then realized he left them back at camp. Convinced there was no time to go back, Ash decided to carry Corphish to the [[Pokémon Center]]. He took Pikachu with him while leaving {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} behind. As Ash began his hike up the mountain, he noticed Corphish becoming hotter. He stopped to think how he could bring its fever down and spotted water trickling down the mountain side. He scooped some of it up with two big leaves and gave it to Corphish which helped a little. Ash then heard the sound of his stomach grumbling realizing he never got to eat breakfast because of [[Team Rocket]]. Pikachu then spotted a [[Pecha Berry]] tree. Ash picked some Berries off of it. As he was about to eat one, he realizes he stepped on a {{p|Shroomish}}. He apologized to it but the Shroomish did not accept it. It attacked with {{m|Stun Spore}} and Ash ran away with his Pokémon as fast as he could.

Later, Ash began to see [[Dewford Town]] in the distance. All he had to do was cross a river. As he began to cross a school of {{p|Carvanha}} began to attack and scared him out of the water. As he began to think how he could cross the river, he spotted a rowboat near the shore. The Carvanha started to attack again and Ash told Pikachu to hold them off with Thunderbolt. It worked for a little bit but they came back and ate the boat. Ash ran back to shore and had to think of another way to get across the river and quick. Corphish's fever was steadily increasing. A little bit down stream, Ash spotted a bridge. Thinking their worries over, Ash was disappointed to see that the bridge had been destroyed. He decided to just cross the river by wading through it. Ash put Pikachu and Corphish on a wooden plant and carried them over his head. The Carvanha soon spotted him and began attacking. Ash started to move quicker as the shore was just feet away. He told Pikachu to jump to shore and to attack Carvanha with Thunderbolt. Pikachu does its best to keep them at bay but a couple of them managed to attack Ash. Corphish started to worry about Ash. Ash promised Corphish that he wouldn't let anything happen to it. One Carvanha attacks Pikachu making it unable to stop any futher attacks. As a group of Carvanha were about to pounce on Ash, Corphish fired a BubbleBeam attack at them. It stopped them long enough for Ash to get to shore. Relived, Ash takes a small break and thanks his Pokémon before going to the Pokémon Center. Around sunset, [[Nurse Joy]] told Ash that Corphish would be just find in the morning. It seemed that the buoys that Corphish ate earlier is what made it sick. Nurse Joy asked why Corphish ate it and Ash couldn't come up with an answer.

Later on Brock, May, and Max are seen around a campfire. All of a sudden they started to hear what Brock believed to be an {{p|Aron}}. Max found this strange as Aron usually stayed in caves and never came out on the beach. They soon came across a tape recorder with Aron's voice on it. Before they could wonder why it was there, they were all trapped by cages. Everyone except Taillow that is. They soon found out that it was Team Rocket who set the trap. They then discovered that Pikachu wasn't with them. James realized that only two of the traps were activated and accidentally activates the third, which trapped Team Rocket as well. Treecko attempted to break the cage with {{m|Slam}} but to no avail. Little did they notice, the tide started to come in. Back at the Pokémon Center, Ash was at Corphish's bedside dreaming of being in a battle with it. He commands it to use Crabhammer and Corphish lightly bonks him on the head. Back at the beach, Brock finally realized that the tide was coming in and that they were all at risk of drowning. Brock then looked at Taillow and got an idea.

The next morning, Corphish felt a hundred percent better and Ash noticed it. Then Taillow came flying in from the window with a tape recorder around its neck. Ash played it hearing Brock's voice on it. He told him the situation and told him to hurry. Back at the beach, the tide was already up to their necks. They then spot Corphish swimming at full speed towards them. Following it was Ash and Nurse Joy in a speed boat. Ash then told Corphish to use Crabhammer on the cages which immediately sets everyone free. Back at the dock, Team Rocket thanked Ash for saving there lives. However this did not stop them from making one last attempt to steal Pikachu. Ash told Pikachu to use {{m|Thunder}} on them followed by Corphish's BubbleBeam which blasted them off for the second time. Afterwards Brock began to thank and flirt with Nurse Joy at the same time. May and Max then thank Corphish. Corphish happily started to smack everyone around.

*{{Ash}} scans {{TP|May|Silcoon}} with his [[Pokédex]], but not {{TP|Jessie|Cascoon}}. This may be because, like Jessie, he thought both Wurmple had evolved into Silcoon.
* Following the trend from [[AG023|the previous episode]], the title is a pun of a common phrase involving fish. In this case, it's the phrase ''A fish out of water''.

=== Errors ===
* When Ash finds the Pecha Berries on the trees, he refers to the tree as a "Pechan" Berry tree.
* When it shows all of [[Ash]]'s [[Poké Balls]], it does not show the lightning mark on Pikachu's Poké ball.

== Question about the talk page thing notice at the top ==

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that talk pages are for discussing the article and its content, not its subject? A lot of what happens on talk pages is discussing content, such as whether or not to delete or add something, something to change, etc. --[[Gallade|'''エ''']][[User:Galladeon|'''ルレ''']][[User talk:Galladeon|'''イ''''''ド''']] 05:52, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

== Date announced ==

See [http://www.pokemon.co.jp/special/hgss/special/wallpaper.html this]! It's on September 12. [[User:Tc26/Anime Predictions|tc]][[User:Tc26|²₆]][[User talk:Tc26|tc]][[User:Tc26/Sandbox|26]] 06:51, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

*It also should be noted that even if Google's translation had the right month the problem is it was too early before the release date was announced. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 14:40, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
:The fact that Google's (mis)translation had the right month was a coincidence, because the original Japanese text only said "fall 2009." --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 20:55, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

== Due to this not being added... Once template gets modified, add the following instead of "Story on Bulbanews" ==

==Pedometer==
Does anyone know if this is an actual pedometer that measures steps you, the human behind the DS, take, or if it's like the pedometer poketch app? It could easily be either, so maybe I'm not alone in thinking it should be given that detail in the article... Or maybe I'm just dumb. :P [[User:Mageslayer|Mageslayer]] 00:43, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

== Two edit requests an admin never responded to ==

::When I said the Johto Pokédex has its own numbering system, I meant that the numbers were displayed. The order's the same from what has been seen (the Pokémon shown have numbers that match up with the Johto numbers on their Bulbapedia pages), it just has numbering this time. In the original games, the New Pokédex didn't display numbers on the list screen, and when you viewed a Pokémon's data, it used the National numbering. --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 23:12, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

::::The order and the Pokémon present are irrelevant for what I want to be added. The point of the edit I want to be made is that numbers are displayed on the Johto Pokédex's list in HGSS, unlike in GSC in which it didn't. The point is to add a change that is confirmed to have been made, and that is numbering in the Johto Pokédex's list, with those numbers also being used in the entries, rather than using the National numbering in the Pokémon pages and no numbering at all in the list. Originally numbers were only displayed in the list if the Old Pokédex mode (i.e. Gen II's equivalent of the National Pokédex) was used, and the numbers shown in the screenshots of HGSS's Pokédex are ''not'' the National numbering. --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 00:53, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

== Can someone please add the new information from high quality trailer? ==

The official HG/SS website updated with a higher quality video as many of us already know. Serebii.net just updated with some pictures from the trailer. It shows Morty in the Ecrutek city Gym which appeared to have received a redesign. It also shows an unknown Gym puzzle with lava which many speculate to be the Blackthorn Gym. The trailer also shows that Pokemon following you on the field can use their HM moves to get rid of obstacles. Of many things, Serebii shows a picture of Tyranitar using rock smash in Cainwood City, and some pictures of Gold and Totodile and Soul and Chikorita walking around with Totodile around Violet city and Ecrutek city, and a battle with Typhlosion and Meganium versus Feraligatr and Tyranitar.

== Pokédex Numbers Aren't the Same ==

According to Serebii.net, released info from the PokéFiesta event in Japan disprove the fact that the Pokédex numbers are the same for the New Pokédex in HGSS:

Growlithe is #129 as opposed to #127, Arcanine is #130 as opposed to #128, and Lapras is #224 as opposed to #219. [[User:Professorsamueloak|Professorsamueloak]] 16:43, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

He's right, check Serebii and see for yourself.

When I saw what was happening I felt like the reason for the changes was to remove some of the previous Pokémon that aren't needed like the Kanto starters, Legendaries, etc. But as I said on that pages' talk page that there should be no changes until the entire change within the Johto Pokédex is confirmed.

== Kanto Pokemon Exclusions ==

Is there any evidence for that? --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 07:36, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Well the starters Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle as well as the fossil Pokémon and Legendaries originally could not be found in Johto during Generation II and could only be transferred with the Time Machine and from what I can notice that these Pokémon, especially the starters and Legendaries would be the most likely Pokémon to exclude first. But once the official numbers have been confirmed for the new Johto Dex then well see if any others are excluded. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 08:10, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

:Have you also noticed on [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number]] only those Pokémon I mentioned here are the only ones not included there. But anyway the main reason why those 19 would be excluded from the Pokédex is they are rare Pokémon that are never used in another Pokedex in the franchise's game history starting with Gen III, especially if the Hoenn and Sinnoh Regional Dexs are taken into account. I would also suggest that you take this to a forum topic because it is well on it's way to becoming one and I will not post again. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 16:04, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

That is not what I meant the last part of my last post was my response I am not using that article as an official source what I meant about how rare Pokémon not being used in another Pokédex is true.

:Three things:

-Keep to the KANTO EXCLUSIVES. You're starting to get into the last conversation right above this when you talk about the new evolutions, Tyler.

-It isn't a forum conversation. Yet. If a fight starts, then it would be best if it was moved there so that none of us have to see it.

-It's a remake. Saying it won't have Kanto exclusive Pokémon is like saying that there won't be any Johto exclusive Pokémon. And yeah, it could be said that Kanto won't have them because it was an add-on to the main storyline, but remember. Kanto was about a third to half of the whole game, {{tt|time-wise|depending on how long it took you to get through the gyms and E4}}.

Can I add in that Mewtwo is in HGSS? [[User:Max King|Max King]] 19:47, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Someone over forums told me that Mt. Quena would be introduced into HG/SS, and that he would be obtainable there, but there is no evidence to support this whatsoever and this could be entirely rumour-based at the moment. However, pokébeach.com says:
"As hinted in the box showing a battle for the 2010 World Championship's video game tournament, Pokemon Sunday yesterday confirmed that Legendary Pokemon will be allowed in the tournament: Mewtwo, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Dialga, Palkia and Giratina can be on your team. One of the hosts on Pokemon Sunday stated that he has always had a Kyogre but was never able to use it, which means he caught it in Sapphire. If so, Pokemon Sunday may be implying that players can use the above legendaries from any of your games at next year's tournament, not just the Ho-Oh, Kyogre, Dialga, etc. caught in HeartGold and SoulSilver."

So, from that I think it'd be too early to confirm he is obtainable in the game, though some might suggest that this hints towards it. [[User:Antmoney|Antmoney]] 02:38, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

== Question about the talk page thing notice at the top ==

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that talk pages are for discussing the article and its content, not its subject? A lot of what happens on talk pages is discussing content, such as whether or not to delete or add something, something to change, etc. --[[Gallade|'''エ''']][[User:Galladeon|'''ルレ''']][[User talk:Galladeon|'''イ''''''ド''']] 05:52, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

== Two edit requests an admin never responded to ==

I put these on the talk page previously (they're archived now), and an admin never responded:

<s>[The Wikipedia remake article link in the opening paragraph] currently links [[wp:remake|here]]; it should instead link [[wp:video game remake|here]], as the latter link discusses the type of remake HeartGold and SoulSilver are while the former discusses remakes in general, including unrelated types of remakes such as movie remakes. --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 02:06, 20 June 2009 (UTC)</s> [An admin took care of this. --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 00:58, 28 June 2009 (UTC)]

Can those be added? --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 20:58, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

::When I said the Johto Pokédex has its own numbering system, I meant that the numbers were displayed. The order's the same from what has been seen (the Pokémon shown have numbers that match up with the Johto numbers on their Bulbapedia pages), it just has numbering this time. In the original games, the New Pokédex didn't display numbers on the list screen, and when you viewed a Pokémon's data, it used the National numbering. --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 23:12, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
:: I think it's too early to say either way. We don't know for sure that the Johto Dex in HGSS will be the same as it was in Generation II.

::::The order and the Pokémon present are irrelevant for what I want to be added. The point of the edit I want to be made is that numbers are displayed on the Johto Pokédex's list in HGSS, unlike in GSC in which it didn't. The point is to add a change that is confirmed to have been made, and that is numbering in the Johto Pokédex's list, with those numbers also being used in the entries, rather than using the National numbering in the Pokémon pages and no numbering at all in the list. Originally numbers were only displayed in the list if the Old Pokédex mode (i.e. Gen II's equivalent of the National Pokédex) was used, and the numbers shown in the screenshots of HGSS's Pokédex are ''not'' the National numbering. --[[User:Evice|Evice]] 00:53, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
::::I went ahead and typed out a suggested edit to the Pokédex changes listed:
<nowiki>* Much like Kanto's was for its remakes, Johto's Pokédex has been redesigned; however, just the same, it retains the same [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Pokédex order]] referred to as the "New Pokédex" in [[Generation II]]. However, unlike in Generation II, the numbers used are displayed in the listing and the entries (originally the listing did not display numbering, while the entries displayed the [[National Pokédex]]'s numbering when viewed).</nowiki>{{unsigned|Evice}}

If you trade {{p|Arceus}} over to Heart Gold & Soul Silver and take it with you to a specific, currently unknown location, you will meet up with Champion [[Cynthia]].

== Can someone please add the new information from high quality trailer? ==

The official HG/SS website updated with a higher quality video as many of us already know. Serebii.net just updated with some pictures from the trailer. It shows Morty in the Ecrutek city Gym which appeared to have received a redesign. It also shows an unknown Gym puzzle with lava which many speculate to be the Blackthorn Gym. The trailer also shows that Pokemon following you on the field can use their HM moves to get rid of obstacles. Of many things, Serebii shows a picture of Tyranitar using rock smash in Cainwood City, and some pictures of Gold and Totodile and Soul and Chikorita walking around with Totodile around Violet city and Ecrutek city, and a battle with Typhlosion and Meganium versus Feraligatr and Tyranitar. Tyranitar, Feraligatr, and Mareep sport new front sprites which may or may not be beta. --[[User:Dialgafan1|Dialgafan1]] 16:57, 3 July 2009 (UTC)Dialgafan1

== Pokédex Numbers Aren't the Same ==

According to Serebii.net, released info from the PokéFiesta event in Japan disprove the fact that the Pokédex numbers are the same for the New Pokédex in HGSS:

Growlithe is #129 as opposed to #127, Arcanine is #130 as opposed to #128, and Lapras is #224 as opposed to #219. [[User:Professorsamueloak|Professorsamueloak]] 16:43, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

He's right, check Serebii and see for yourself. The numbers of those Pokemon are later in the Dex order because they probably added all the evolutions that Generation II Pokemon received in later generations such as Weavile, Honchkrow, Mismagius, and Togekiss. --[[User:Dialgafan1|Dialgafan1]] 20:27, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
:Sure. Its' in. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 20:35, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. Now that that's done, can soemone fix the fourth bullet point under '''Aesthetic Changes''' and change the last part of the sentence to this: "however, it does not retain the same Pokedex order as the original Generation II games unlike how Firered and Leafgreen retained the same Pokedex order as the original Red and Green." or something to that effect. --[[User:Dialgafan1|Dialgafan1]] 21:12, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

When I saw what was happening I felt like the reason for the changes was to remove some of the previous Pokémon that aren't needed like the Kanto starters, Legendaries, etc. But as I said on that pages' talk page that there should be no changes until the entire change within the Johto Pokédex is confirmed. Also while I am happy the page has been updated with that change I am unsure the part of the inclusion of Generation IV Pokémon bit is correct. But hey the truth on what will be changed will come out eventually. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 22:50, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

:Seeing as how they wouldn't restrict getting a Razor Fang or Claw into or even within HGSS, just like you can get Fluffy Tails into Gen IV games by migrating, and also remembering that we have the real-time function, Pokémon like Gliscor and Weavile will be available. Just like Electivire and Magmortar, and the ones that evolve by stones.

== Kanto Pokemon Exclusions ==

Is there any evidence for that? --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 07:36, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Well the starters Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle as well as the fossil Pokémon and Legendaries originally could not be found in Johto during Generation II and could only be transferred with the Time Machine and from what I can notice that these Pokémon, especially the starters and Legendaries would be the most likely Pokémon to exclude first. But once the official numbers have been confirmed for the new Johto Dex then well see if any others are excluded. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 08:10, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
:But is there any reason to think that they'll be excluded from Pokedex (not counting assumptions). I think the mention about the assumed exclusions should be deleted from the article. Especially that some people have recently started using Bulbapedia as almost official source, believing in its every word... --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 08:24, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

:Have you also noticed on [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number]] only those Pokémon I mentioned here are the only ones not included there. But anyway the main reason why those 19 would be excluded from the Pokédex is they are rare Pokémon that are never used in another Pokedex in the franchise's game history starting with Gen III, especially if the Hoenn and Sinnoh Regional Dexs are taken into account. I would also suggest that you take this to a forum topic because it is well on it's way to becoming one and I will not post again. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 16:04, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
::Of course. Bringing the other article as an evidence for your claim! How genius! And I don't see how it's "becoming a forum topic". I'm talking about a passage IN THIS ARTICLE. If it wasn't mentioned in the article, I wouldn't put that up here. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 16:11, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
That is not what I meant the last part of my last post was my response I am not using that article as an official source what I meant about how rare Pokémon not being used in another Pokédex is true. What's more unbelieveable to me is mentioning the new evolutions forms from Generation IV that of course is something I don't believe is going to happen. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 16:18, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

:Three things:

-Keep to the KANTO EXCLUSIVES. You're starting to get into the last conversation right above this when you talk about the new evolutions, Tyler.

-It isn't a forum conversation. Yet. If a fight starts, then it would be best if it was moved there so that none of us have to see it.

-It's a remake. Saying it won't have Kanto exclusive Pokémon is like saying that there won't be any Johto exclusive Pokémon. And yeah, it could be said that Kanto won't have them because it was an add-on to the main storyline, but remember. Kanto was about a third to half of the whole game, {{tt|time-wise|depending on how long it took you to get through the gyms and E4}}.

== Apricorns ==

Yeah, would anyone mind adding that Apricorns are making a return to the Gameplay changes, along with the info that they can be watered now? I mean, that sounds like something that should be up there, especially since their respective Pokéballs don't exist in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum.

== Mewtwo ==

If you go to Filb.de you can see a repeat of the HGSS part of Pokemon Sunday, now I don't understand Japanese, so I'm not sure what she said, but she held up this picture of every legendary available in HGSS, and Mewtwo was included and she read them out, and as she said Mewtwo there was a gasp of shock. Can I add in that Mewtwo is in HGSS? [[User:Max King|Max King]] 19:47, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Someone over forums told me that Mt. Quena would be introduced into HG/SS, and that he would be obtainable there, but there is no evidence to support this whatsoever and this could be entirely rumour-based at the moment. However, pokébeach.com says:
"As hinted in the box showing a battle for the 2010 World Championship's video game tournament, Pokemon Sunday yesterday confirmed that Legendary Pokemon will be allowed in the tournament: Mewtwo, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Dialga, Palkia and Giratina can be on your team. One of the hosts on Pokemon Sunday stated that he has always had a Kyogre but was never able to use it, which means he caught it in Sapphire. If so, Pokemon Sunday may be implying that players can use the above legendaries from any of your games at next year's tournament, not just the Ho-Oh, Kyogre, Dialga, etc. caught in HeartGold and SoulSilver."

So, from that I think it'd be too early to confirm he is obtainable in the game, though some might suggest that this hints towards it. [[User:Antmoney|Antmoney]] 02:38, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions

2009-08-24T20:33:21Z

Chuck67322: /* I've noticed something... */

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)

==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?

::Besides, even if such issue is real, it isn't definitely a glitch and simply a problem of a battery that wore out. [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 18:05, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
:::It's less a glitch than simple wear. In a fit of nostalgia inspired by hearing about HG/SS, I dragged out all my old games and was heartbroken to find the saves of GSC gone. Fortunately (and somewhat ironically since it's a fair bit older) I found my Yellow save happily intact. I'd guess that eventually, yes, the internal batteries of RSE will wear out, but it seems to me to be less of an issue since migrating forward is an option - an option that will hopefully be retained as long as Pokemon lives. [[User:AlishaShatogi|AlishaShatogi]] 08:15, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
::::RSE saves via flash memory, as does FRLG. The battery in RSE is for the clock alone. RBY's saves are in danger, however, and will die eventually, but not for a long time after GSC has, since their batteries took care of both the time ''and'' the save. And DPPtHGSS don't have anything other than flash memory, no batteries period in those carts. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 08:28, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Pikachu is yellow and has red electric sacs.

== Name Rater x2 ==

Did it occur that Gold, Silver where the first games to have ''two'' Name Raters as compared to one per game. This is obivously because Gold & Silver have two regions, not one. I was just wondering if that's good triva for the page.--[[User:Spritemaster|Spritmaster]] 15:11:29 23 August 2009(UTC)

Novelty Pokémon

2009-08-24T05:50:21Z

Chuck67322: /* List of novelty Pokémon */

A '''novelty Pokémon''', also referred to as a '''gimmick Pokémon''', is a term for a [[Pokémon]] species without evolutions, little use in battle, and/or a limited movepool. Such Pokémon usually possess some novel quality about them that makes them unique or interesting but lack the ability to be readily shaped up for battle, causing them to be underused or overlooked. Although nearly all Pokémon can be used in a battle effectively, novelty Pokémon appear to be more added to flesh out the Pokémon world than to be actually used or as fodder for potential evolutions later.

Many of these Pokémon became viable participants in Pokémon Contests after they were introduced in Generation III.

==List of novelty Pokémon==
* With many other Pokémon sharing its type and most of its abilities, {{p|Farfetch'd}} was a novelty Pokémon in the first generation due to the fact it was rare and could only be acquired by trading. Farfetch'd itself is likely a reference to trading; its habit of playing fetch is similar to trading.
* {{p|Ditto}} only has one move — {{m|Transform}} — which lets it copy the appearance, types, and moves of its opponents. It is not very useful in battle, but invaluable in breeding.
* Capable of learning only [[Hidden Power (move)|one move]], {{p|Unown}}'s main purpose in the games is to be collected, a sidequest that consists of finding its 28 [[form differences|forms]].
* {{p|Shuckle}} has ridiculously high Defense and Special Defense, making it agonizingly difficult to weaken and good for holding up many attacks. However, it has very low HP, Attack and Special Attack, and, tied with {{p|Munchlax}}, the lowest Speed of any other Pokémon. It is capable of creating valuable [[Rare Candy|Rare Candies]] if one has it hold an [[Oran Berry]].
* {{p|Delibird}} is capable of naturally learning only a single move and is the [[signature moves|only Pokémon who can learn it naturally]]. However, unlike Unown, it can learn other moves via TMs and breeding. It is largely still considered a novelty Pokémon, though.
* {{p|Smeargle}} learns only one move repeatedly, but this move has the ability to permanently duplicate the moves of other Pokémon. Its stats and rarity mean it is not used as frequently as it could be though but this capability makes it very useful in breeding as well.
* {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} were created to showcase the [[double battle]] addition to the series in Generation III. As such, they are difficult to use separately.
* {{p|Spinda}}'s main gimmick is the variable designs on its body, in a bit of an expansion of the Unown concept.
* {{p|Castform}} has a {{a|Forecast|unique ability}} to change [[form differences|form]] depending on the weather. It was also the only Pokémon to learn {{m|Weather Ball}} until [[Generation IV]].
* {{p|Kecleon}} has a {{a|Color Change|unique ability}} unto itself; however, this ability makes it notoriously difficult to use in battles.
* {{p|Luvdisc}} are weak and have a poor moveset, but can be caught holding [[Heart Scale]]s which can be used to teach old moves.
* {{p|Chatot}} is comparatively weak to others of its type, and it also has a low catch rate, but it can use {{m|Chatter}} to repeat back messages recorded on the [[Nintendo DS|DS]] microphone.

'''Tory Lund''' (Japanese: '''トオイ・ロンド ''' ''Tōi Rondot'') is a fictional character in the seventh [[Pokémon]] film, [[Destiny Deoxys]]. His Japanese voice actress is 日高のり子 ''[[Noriko Hidaka]]'' and his English voice actress is [[Tara Jayne]].

==Character==
Tory is a young boy who lives in [[LaRousse City]], a futuristic city in [[Hoenn]] that relies completely on technology. He is also the son of the head scientist in LaRousse, [[Professor Lund]].

==History==
Four years prior to the main events of the film, Professor Lund took Tory with him on an investigative trip to the Arctic. When a meteorite carrying {{p|Deoxys}} crashed, the impact disrupted a pack of nesting {{p|Walrein}} and caused a stampede. Tory was surrounded by the Walrein and, as a result, became deeply traumatized and found himself terrified of Pokémon. Four years on, Tory's fear of Pokémon still lingered, despite the fact he loved them. However, he had befriended an odd cosmic entity that hid in his father's large laboratory. This would later be revealed to be a spiritual form of a second Deoxys, and the first's friend.

While in the city's [[Battle Tower]], Tory ran into {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}}. Frightened by the presence of {{p|Pikachu}}, Tory raced into an elevator, but Ash dove through the doors at the last moment and tried to ask the stunned boy where the battle floor was, all while Tory backed in a corner. He escaped, Ash but ended up in a two-on-two battle alongside him. Ash lent him his {{AP|Torkoal}}, but the battle didn't run incredibly smoothly - Pikachu and Torkoal were defeated easily and Tory became traumatized by a spinning Blastoise, which reminded him of his encounter with the Walrein.

Tory wandered off and encountered a {{p|Plusle}} and a {{p|Minun}}. The Minun had its head stuck in a bin. Tory helped free it but when the two Pokémon attempted to show their gratitude by hugging him, he freaked out and ran to his father's lab. Ash and Pikachu followed and questioned him about who he talks to (the Deoxys). Tory walked off but is frightened by a flock of {{p|Wingull}} and Pikachu. Ash is hurt in the process and is prevented from hurting Tory by the timely arrival of {{an|May}}, [[Max]] and [[Brock]].

That night, Tory met his friends again with a box of Pokémon cookies, and a fun night involving all the Pokémon followed. The next day, Deoxys began searching for its companion, while Tory and the others were trapped in the city. Several of the group were captured, including the Minun. Tory tried to comfort the Plusle, but his fear got the better of him. Tory helped to restore order and revived the second Deoxys. Teaming up with Ash, Pikachu, and the reunited Plusle and Minun, Tory gave Ash his pass card in order to stop the malfunctioning info cubes. Ash succeeds. Tory, Plusle and Minun are suspended high on top the Battle Tower, but Plusle and Minun lose their balance and fall. Tory dove after them and grabbed them as they fell. The trio are saved by the second Deoxys. Reunited with his father and friends, Tory overcame his fear of Pokémon, and as a result, Plusle and Minun became his new friends. He then said farewell to the two Deoxys who returned to deep space. It is presumed Tory eventually becomes a [[Pokémon Trainer]] with Plusle and Minun as his starters.

Tory wandered off and encountered a {{p|Plusle}} and a {{p|Minun}}. The Minun had its head stuck in a bin. Tory helped free it but when the two Pokémon attempted to show their gratitude by hugging him, he freaked out and ran to his father's lab. Ash and Pikachu followed and questioned him about who he talks to (the Deoxys). Tory walked off but is frightened by a flock of {{p|Wingull}} and Pikachu. Ash is hurt in the process and is prevented from hurting Tory by the timely arrival of {{an|May}}, [[Max]] and [[Brock]].

That night, Tory met his friends again with a box of Pokémon cookies, and a fun night involving all the Pokémon followed. The next day, Deoxys began searching for its companion, while Tory and the others were trapped in the city. Several of the group were captured, including the Minun. Tory tried to comfort the Plusle, but his fear got the better of him. Tory helped to restore order and revived the second Deoxys. Teaming up with Ash, Pikachu, and the reunited Plusle and Minun, Tory gave Ash his pass card in order to stop the malfunctioning info cubes. Ash succeeds. Tory, Plusle and Minun are suspended high on top the Battle Tower, but Plusle and Minun lose their balance and fall. Tory dove after them and grabbed them as they fell. The trio are saved by the second Deoxys. Reunited with his father and friends, Tory overcame his fear of Pokémon, and as a result, Plusle and Minun became his new friends. He then said farewell to the two Deoxys who returned to deep space. It is presumed Tory eventually becomes a [[Pokémon Trainer]] with Plusle and Minun as his starters.

After accidentally entering into a [[double battle]] with Ash at the [[Battle Tower]], Tory is loaned Ash's Torkoal. However, due to Tory's fear of Pokémon, he does not issue any commands and the battle was lost.

'''A Shroomish Skirmish''' (Japanese: '''森の格闘王!? ワカシャモvsキノガッサ！''' ''The Fighting King of the Forest!? {{tt|Wakasyamo|Combusken}} vs. {{tt|Kinogassa|Breloom}}!'') is the 82nd episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 356th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on June 24, 2004 and in the United States on June 11, 2005.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
The episode begins with everyone having their lunch and, as usual, [[Brock]]'s food is great. {{AP|Corphish}} steals {{TP|May|Torchic}}'s food, which of course ignites a fight, and everyone gets {{m|ThunderShock|shocked}} by {{AP|Pikachu}}. That doesn't stop the fighting, though. Meanwhile, [[Team Rocket]] are starving as usual. {{MTR}} remembers to the second the last time that they had real food. {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} "finds" some fruit from somewhere, which in turn leads to an argument. However, it does not turn into a fight because Team Rocket then realize Wobbuffet got the fruit from a group of weak plant [[Pokémon]]. Team Rocket then fight the Pokémon off-screen for the fruit. Finally, the Pokémon belonging to {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|company}} stop their fighting and are summarily told off by their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s.

Team Rocket eat the apples they've stolen but are then smacked by some {{p|Breloom}}, who are friends of the plant Pokémon that Team Rocket stole the fruit from. While fleeing, Team Rocket run straight into Ash and company. They launch into their now-familiar {{TP|Team Rocket|motto|mottos}}, stop briefly to steal more food, and then resume the motto from where they left off earlier. However, the angry Breloom have followed them and proceed to use {{m|Mach Punch}} on everyone.

Everyone blasts off! {{an|May}} and {{TP|Brock|Mudkip}} land together on a tree branch hanging above a large, deep ravine. Torchic, crying, lands with Corphish and follows the Pokémon as it leads them away. Ash and Brock land together somewhere in a forest with Pikachu and {{AP|Swellow}}. The two Pokémon are then instructed to search for the others, but only seconds later, Ash and Brock are again attacked by the Breloom. Ash wants to fight but Brock doesn't, and they both flee.

Meowth and Max land together and quickly meet up with Torchic and Corphish. Meanwhile, May and Mudkip run into Team Rocket (after using Mudkip's radar). Team Rocket run right off the cliff and land onto an overhanging tree branch. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] hug each other desperately. However, Torchic is still sad and appears to be hungry.

Ash still wants to fight the Pokémon but Brock drags him off. While running, the two friends end up rolling down a hill. Pikachu and Swellow later meet up with Meowth and Max, who have been cornered by the Breloom against a rock face. Pikachu bravely joins the fight while Swellow searches for Ash. Ash and Brock fall on top of Team Rocket, and all plunge into the gorge below. They are saved by a {{m|Rapid Spin}} attack from {{TP|Brock|Forretress}}. Swellow reports back.

Meanwhile, Pikachu and Corphish are fighting a losing battle to protect everyone else. Corphish is almost knocked out, but is saved by the sudden arrival of May and Mudkip. Another surprise attack almost does him in, but Torchic (who up until now had been cowering) gets in the way and appears angry. Torchic then [[evolution|evolves]] into {{TP|May|Combusken}}!

Everyone's on the scene now and Combusken battles the Breloom. After using an initially useless {{t|Fire}} attack (which was fended off with a Mega Punch attack), Breloom challenges Combusken to hand-to-hand combat. Combusken obliges. A cross-counter knocks out both Pokémon. Team Rocket, while complimenting the fighting Pokémon, inadvertently say something to annoy both Breloom and Combusken, and are subsequently blasted off by their combined attacks. By now, Combusken and Breloom have a grudging respect for each other.

The episode ends with Brock making more food to satisfy everyone's appetite. Again, Corphish tries to steal some food but is frightened off by the stronger Combusken.

Chuck67322:

This Trainer's Choice is riddled with problems. Earlier in the article, Exploud is given to be the Trainer's Choice Pokémon. But Then it asks which Pokémon is best suited to fight Tyrogue, gives Exploud as a possible answer, along with Nuzleaf and Dustox, and then says "If you chose Tyrogue, you were right!". This does not make sense. Exploud is weak to Tyrogue, so probably Exploud is what should be in the question, rather than an answer. However, this could be just another undocumented Trainer's Choice screw-up. Can anybody check this one up and fix it to be how it actually was in the episode? [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 02:51, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
:Who knows? Maybe they're asking what's good for the opponent? That could be a possibility.
:Edit: Oh yeah, they didn't say "If you chose Tyrogue, you were right!" I clearly heard them say "Exploud" [[User:Chuck67322|Chuck67322]] 21:56, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

'''Spoink''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バネブー''' ''Baneboo'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Grumpig}} starting at [[level]] 32.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Spoink is a Pokémon that leads an unusually fragile existence. It possess no hind legs and motion is achieved by bouncing on its spring like tail. However, the bouncing serves a far more vital function in that it keeps its heart beating; if it's stopped from bouncing, it'll go into cardiac arrest and die. It also wears a pearl produced by a {{p|Clamperl}} on top of its head to amplify its psychic powers. However, if it loses the pearl, it begins to weaken, so Spoink is in constant danger from either ceasing to bounce or losing its pearl.

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

====Special abilities====
The pearl on Spoink's head magnifies its psychic powers. It is able to constantly bounce, even while sleeping, which is imperative to its existence. This is due to the previously mentioned risk of cardiac arrest. Spoink was also one of the few Pokémon originally able to use the move {{m|Bounce}}, though this move now can be used by a decent quantity of Pokémon.

===Behavior===
Spoink are constantly on the search for a bigger pearl, which will most likely strengthen its psychic powers when it does so. Due to this factor, Spoink are known to steal round objects that it may confuse for a pearl. They seem to be kleptomaniac Pokémon.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

They seem to love mushrooms that grow underground. How they manage to get at them while bouncing is unknown. However, they also seem to be sometimes found with the [[Tanga Berry]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Spoinkanime.jpg|right|thumb|[[Spoink (anime)|A Spoink]] without a pearl on its head.]]
{{an|Spoink}} first appeared in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]''. The Bounce Pokémon had lost its pearl and {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} helped find the missing pearl. Spoink happened to be a kleptomaniac for anything round (especially round Pokémon) when it didn't have its pearl.

The same Spoink appeared again in ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom]]'', where it loses its pearl once again. Ash and friends go searching for another pearl, but [[Team Rocket]] stole the only {{p|Clamperl}} that had one.

{{Ash}} used a Spoink in the first leg of the Pokémon Triathlon ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]''.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG079|Spoink|Ash's Pokédex|Spoink, the Bounce Pokémon. Spoink {{m|Bounce|bounces}} about on its tail. The {{p|Clamperl|pearl}} upon its head helps to magnify its {{t|psychic}} powers. If a Spoink loses its pearl, it grows extremely tired.}}

===NPC appearances===

* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2]]: Spoink lost its pearl early in the games and the {{player}} is sent by {{OBP|Chatot|Mystery Dungeon 2 character}} to retrieve it from [[Drenched Bluff]]. Later on, it can appear in [[Treasure Town]].

===Pokédex entries===

==Trivia==
* Despite saying that it would die if it stopped bouncing, it has been seen not bouncing many times in the anime.
* Spoink cry is very similar to that of a frog.
* The pearl on Spoink's head darkened in its Generation IV sprites.
* Oddly, a shiny Spoink's pearl is gray, but a shiny {{p|Clamperl}}'s pearl is gold.
===Origin===
It is possible the inspiration for Spoink came from the Biblical phrase {{wp|Pearls Before Swine|"do not cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet."}} The pearls were supposed to represent wisdom given to an audience who would not appreciate the teachings. Spoink and {{p|Grumpig}} appear to instead use those pearls of wisdom to enhance their psychic powers. It is also possible that Spoink was a literal interpretation for a spring pig. It is obviously based off a {{wp|pig}}.

====Name origin====
Spoink's name is possibly a combination of ''{{wp|Spring (device)|spring}}'' and ''oink'', the sound a pig makes. ''Baneboo'' is probably derived from 発条 ''bane'', spring, and ぶうぶう ''būbū'', the sound of grumbling or oinking. The end of its name may also be a shortening of 豚 ''buta'', pig.

== Synopsis ==
{{Incomplete synopsis}}

It’s Contest Day in [[Rubello Town]] and {{an|May}} is as determined as ever to win, and with her victories in {{to|Fallarbor}} and [[Verdanturf Town]] she is extremely confident. After {{an|May}} uses {{TP|May|Beautifly}} in the appeal rounds (participants are allowed to use different Pokémon for the Appeal and the Battle Rounds), she easily passes the qualifiers with [[Drew]] and Savannah. However, as she prepares for the Battle Rounds against {{p|Lairon}}, Ash warns her that Bulbasaur might not be ready, since it’s never actually been in a battle before but May is confident in it’s abilities, but is she being a bit overconfident, especially since the winner of the match will face [[Drew]] and his {{p|Masquerain}} in the final…

It was first broadcast in Japan on April 29, 2004 and in the United States on April 16, 2005.
{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr|co.}} arrive at a town. {{an|May}} decides to bring out {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} in order to check out the sights. Bulbasaur suddenly runs to a nearby store rack and wants to eat the displayed fruit, but May explains the concept of buying items. When [[Max]] calls to May, Bulbasaur slips away and climbs into the bed of a pickup truck full of flowers, smelling them. May runs to the truck, but the vehicle pulls away. They pursue the truck, and Ash and [[Brock]] speed up, getting the driver’s attention and making him stop the truck, allowing May to get Bulbasaur.

At the [[Pokémon Center]], [[Team Rocket]] is in disguise and working on the Pokémon Transporter. Unbeknownst to [[Nurse Joy]], they are really altering it in order to steal the imported [[Pokémon]]. Ash and co. arrive as Team Rocket finishes and leaves. Ash calls [[Professor Oak]] and Max mentions May's Bulbasaur. She brings Bulbasaur to the screen and earns the professor’s approval. Ash asks about his {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, and the professor brings it to the screen. May’s Bulbasaur already shows friendliness to Ash’s. He asks the professor to send his Bulbasaur through the transporter in order to meet May’s Bulbasaur.

Professor Oak agrees and puts Bulbasaur into its [[Poké Ball]] before transporting it. The transport appears to be successful and Ash picks up the Poké Ball, but it won’t open. Other children also point out the same problem, as their Poké Balls are empty. Max immediately suspects that the repair guys were fakes. Nurse Joy does not believe so until the real repair guys arrive.

Team Rocket is outside the building snatching the Poké Balls as Nurse Joy leads Ash and co. to the back, encountering Team Rocket. They quickly escape in their balloon. Ash and May send out {{AP|Taillow}} and {{TP|May|Beautifly}} to stop them, but [[James]] fires rocket boosters to evade, even dodging {{AP|Pikachu}}’s {{m|Thunderbolt}}. However, the engines fail, sending the balloon flying far away. A Poké Ball falls from the sky and May's Bulbasaur grabs it. The ball opens and releases the Pokémon inside, and it's Ash's Bulbasaur. Bulbasaur jumps into Ash’s arms and May’s Bulbasaur reaches out with a vine. Ash’s Bulbasaur matches the vine in a high-five style as May brings her Bulbasaur closer. They decide to allow the Bulbasaur to team up to search while Taillow and Beautifly cover from the air.

Team Rocket begins to gather all the stolen Poké Balls into wrapped sacks. James’s bag develops a hole and it drops Poké Balls, leaving a trail. Meanwhile, while Ash and the others are searching, May's Bulbasaur drifts to sniffing flowers. Ash's Bulbasaur explains to May’s Bulbasaur and gets it back on track. Taillow and Beautifly find the Poké Ball trail. A wild {{p|Shroomish}} and {{p|Nuzleaf}} lead Ash and co. to the balloon’s landing site, where they find one of the Poké Balls. Taillow brings another Poké Ball and leads them to the ball trail.

Team Rocket gets to their cabin and {{MTR}} notices that James’s bag had a hole and he dropped the Poké Balls. They find Ash and co. outside, but they retreat back inside and James activates a switch, raising steel walls around the perimeter and rendering it impregnable. However, Ash notices an open window, allowing May and the others to go onto the roof and retrieve the stolen property. Meowth throws Poké Balls and James uses the skis as a makeshift baseball bat to send them outside, using the Pokémon inside, a {{p|Golbat}} and a {{p|Primeape}}, to attack Ash. May orders the two Bulbasaur to send their vines inside and attempt to grab the sack of Poké Balls. James tries to tie the vines together, but the Bulbasaur smack James back with the vines. Brock recalls the attacking Primeape and Golbat while Pikachu attacks the wall with {{m|Iron Tail}}, forcing Team Rocket out. [[Jessie]] and James send out {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} and {{TP|James|Cacnea}}. Seviper’s {{m|Poison Tail}} and Cacnea’s {{m|Pin Missile}} put down May’s Bulbasaur. Although May calls for a {{m|Razor Leaf}} attack, Cacnea’s Pin Missile is too strong for May’s Bulbasaur. Ash's Bulbasaur steps in and stops the attack with {{m|Vine Whip}}. Seviper and Cacnea attempt to attack with Poison Tail and {{m|Needle Arm}}, but both Bulbasaur use Vine Whip to push them back and seize the stolen Poké Balls. They try to attack again, but Pikachu stops them with Thunderbolt and sends them flying. The Bulbasaur give a vine whip high five. Ash and the others return the Poké Balls. Professor Oak calls back and asks for Ash’s Bulbasaur to return and stop the {{t|water}} and {{t|grass}} Pokémon from fighting. Ash sends his Bulbasaur back to [[Professor Oak's laboratory]] as May’s Bulbasaur appears to have made a positive change. Ash and co. leave the Pokémon Center and hit the road.

== Trivia ==
* The episode title is a pun on the dance name "hokey pokey".

=== Errors ===
* Since Team Rocket finished corrupting Poké Ball transporter only when Ash and others entered the Pokémon Center, not many people could have used it before Ash, if he was not the first. Obviously, Team Rocket could not have stolen three large bags of Poké Balls.
* {{p|Beautifly}} is pictured where Nuzleaf's name appears in {{pkmn|Trainer's Choice}}.
**Additionally, Combusken would've been the worst choice because it's part [[Fighting-type]], and Fighting-types are weak to [[Psychic-type|Psychic-types]]. {{p|Beautifly}} would've been the best choice because of its [[Flying-type]] capabilities since Flying-type moves are super-effective to {{p|Meditite}}, a half [[Fighting-type]] Pokémon.
* In the scene where Ash and his friends found [[Team Rocket]]'s balloon, Poké Balls could be seen in the basket.
* "Pokéball" written in one word appears in the anime not for the first time. This spelling seems to be canonical in the anime.

Other children also point out the same problem, as their Poké Balls are empty. Max immediately suspects that the repair guys were fakes. Nurse Joy does not believe so until the real repair guys arrive.

Team Rocket is outside the building snatching the Poké Balls as Nurse Joy leads Ash and co. to the back, encountering Team Rocket. They quickly escape in their balloon. Ash and May send out {{AP|Taillow}} and {{TP|May|Beautifly}} to stop them, but [[James]] fires rocket boosters to evade, even dodging {{AP|Pikachu}}’s {{m|Thunderbolt}}. However, the engines fail, sending the balloon flying far away. A Poké Ball falls from the sky and May's Bulbasaur grabs it. The ball opens and releases the Pokémon inside, and it's Ash's Bulbasaur. Bulbasaur jumps into Ash’s arms and May’s Bulbasaur reaches out with a vine. Ash’s Bulbasaur matches the vine in a high-five style as May brings her Bulbasaur closer. They decide to allow the Bulbasaur to team up to search while Taillow and Beautifly cover from the air.

Team Rocket begins to gather all the stolen Poké Balls into wrapped sacks. James’s bag develops a hole and it drops Poké Balls, leaving a trail. Meanwhile, while Ash and the others are searching, May's Bulbasaur drifts to sniffing flowers. Ash's Bulbasaur explains to May’s Bulbasaur and gets it back on track. Taillow and Beautifly find the Poké Ball trail. A wild {{p|Shroomish}} and {{p|Nuzleaf}} lead Ash and co. to the balloon’s landing site, where they find one of the Poké Balls. Taillow brings another Poké Ball and leads them to the ball trail.

Team Rocket gets to their cabin and {{MTR}} notices that James’s bag had a hole and he dropped the Poké Balls. They find Ash and co. outside, but they retreat back inside and James activates a switch, raising steel walls around the perimeter and rendering it impregnable. However, Ash notices an open window, allowing May and the others to go onto the roof and retrieve the stolen property. Meowth throws Poké Balls and James uses the skis as a makeshift baseball bat to send them outside, using the Pokémon inside, a {{p|Golbat}} and a {{p|Primeape}}, to attack Ash. May orders the two Bulbasaur to send their vines inside and attempt to grab the sack of Poké Balls. James tries to tie the vines together, but the Bulbasaur smack James back with the vines. Brock recalls the attacking Primeape and Golbat while Pikachu attacks the wall with {{m|Iron Tail}}, forcing Team Rocket out. [[Jessie]] and James send out {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} and {{TP|James|Cacnea}}. Seviper’s {{m|Poison Tail}} and Cacnea’s {{m|Pin Missile}} put down May’s Bulbasaur. Although May calls for a {{m|Razor Leaf}} attack, Cacnea’s Pin Missile is too strong for May’s Bulbasaur. Ash's Bulbasaur steps in and stops the attack with {{m|Vine Whip}}. Seviper and Cacnea attempt to attack with Poison Tail and {{m|Needle Arm}}, but both Bulbasaur use Vine Whip to push them back and seize the stolen Poké Balls. They try to attack again, but Pikachu stops them with Thunderbolt and sends them flying. The Bulbasaur give a vine whip high five. Ash and the others return the Poké Balls. Professor Oak calls back and asks for Ash’s Bulbasaur to return and stop the {{t|water}} and {{t|grass}} Pokémon from fighting. Ash sends his Bulbasaur back to [[Professor Oak's laboratory]] as May’s Bulbasaur appears to have made a positive change. Ash and co. leave the Pokémon Center and hit the road.

{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr|co.}} arrive at a town. {{an|May}} decides to bring out {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} in order to check out the sights. Bulbasaur suddenly runs to a nearby store rack and wants to eat the displayed fruit, but May explains the concept of buying items. When [[Max]] calls to May, Bulbasaur slips away and climbs into the bed of a pickup truck full of flowers, smelling them. May runs to the truck, but the vehicle pulls away. They pursue the truck, and Ash and [[Brock]] speed up, getting the driver’s attention and making him stop the truck, allowing May to get Bulbasaur.

At the [[Pokémon Center]], [[Team Rocket]] is in disguise and working on the Pokémon Transporter. Unbeknownst to [[Nurse Joy]], they are really altering it in order to steal the imported [[Pokémon]]. Ash and co. arrive as Team Rocket finishes and leaves. Ash calls [[Professor Oak]] and Max mentions May's Bulbasaur. She brings Bulbasaur to the screen and earns the professor’s approval. Ash asks about his {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, and the professor brings it to the screen. May’s Bulbasaur already shows friendliness to Ash’s. He asks the professor to send his Bulbasaur through the transporter in order to meet May’s Bulbasaur.

Professor Oak agrees and puts Bulbasaur into its [[Poké Ball]] before transporting it. The transport appears to be successful and Ash picks up the Poké Ball, but it won’t open.

'''All Torkoal, No Play''' (Japanese: '''ハガネの谷を突破せよ！コータスVSハガネール!!''' ''Breaking Through Steel Valley! {{tt|Cotoise|Torkoal}} VS {{tt|Haganeil|Steelix}}!'') is the 58th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 332nd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on January 8, 2004 and in the United States on November 27, 2004.
{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==
Eager to reach [[Mauville City]], which is their next stop on the way to [[Petalburg City]], [[Brock]] leads {{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, and [[Max]] into what he believes is a shortcut. Instead he manages to get them hopelessly lost in a bleak looking wilderness. As they look at the map Ash suddenly sees something strange in the sky, a {{p|Torkoal}} being attacked by a pair of {{p|Magnemite}} and a {{p|Skarmory}}! Ash rushes towards the fight with {{AP|Pikachu}} together they are able to drive off the angry Pokémon. Happy to be rescued, the Torkoal thanks Ash and his friends by accidentally covering them with soot. Suddenly it hears a noise, and runs off into the distance leaving a very confused Ash behind.

Up in the sky [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} float by in their balloon. Off in the distance Meowth notices the Skarmory, and translates its cries as "Get out of here, now!". Before they can turn around the angry [[Pokémon]] slices open their balloon with a {{m|Wing Attack}} and sends them flying off with the cry of "Team Rocket's blasting off already!".

Back on the ground, Ash and his friends begin to cross across a rocky valley, which Brock claims will get them back to the main road. Suddenly the two Magnemite from before appear, and begin attacking. Taking some of Max's advice, May calls out {{TP|May|Torchic}}, who drives them off using {{m|Ember}}. Continuing along they stumble across Torkoal, who is once again being attacked by Skarmory and several Magnemite. Ash leaps to the rescue, and May backs him up by combining {{TP|May|Skitty}}'s {{m|Assist}} and Torchic's Ember to drive off the Magnemite. Their attacks cause the Skarmory to begin targeting them, but Torkoal uses its {{m|Flamethrower}} to send it flying away. The effort causes Torkoal to collapse from exhaustion.

While tending to Torkoal's injuries, Brock tells everybody that they stumbled into the [[Valley of Steel]], a place filled with wild and very aggressive Steel Pokémon. Torkoal probably got lost and was attacked by the Pokémon, just like they were. Ash suggests that Torkoal team up with them, certain that its power, along with their other Pokémon will be enough to get them safely out of the valley. Torkoal agrees, but suddenly the sound from before rings out, and Torkoal goes running off towards it. Brock speculates that the noise might be coming from another Pokémon, one far stronger then the Skarmory and Magnemite. They head in the direction Torkoal ran.

In another part of the valley, Team Rocket runs away from an angry {{p|Magneton}}. Its electric attacks send them blasting off for a second time. They land directly in front of a very large and angry {{p|Steelix}}. Not wanting to be attacked, Team Rocket tries to be nice to it, but are rewarded with a powerful {{m|Iron Tail}} attack which sends them blasting off yet again. They land right next to Ash and his friends, who have reunited with Torkoal on the edge of a big crevasse. Bouncing away they fall into the crevice, inadvertently knocking May and Torchic in as well.

Grabbing onto a branch, May is able to keep herself from falling to the bottom of the crevasse. But a wild Magneton soon arrives and tries to knock her off using electric attacks. Torchic, Pikachu, and Torkoal all use their attacks to keep it away, while Brock and Max lower Ash down on a rope to rescue May. After successfully dragging May back up, Torkoal manages to hit the Magneton with a flamethrower, driving it away for good. Injured, the Magneton flies to Steelix's location and tells it where Ash and the others are. Angry the Steelix uses {{m|Dig}} and begins heading towards them.

Ash and his friends finally reach the edge of the valley, which is marked by a river. Before they can cross the Steelix suddenly comes up out of the ground and begins to attack. Brock realizes that this Steelix is the reason Torkoal entered the valley, it wanted to challenge it to a fight to prove its strength! With Ash giving out commands, Torkoal and Steelix square off in single combat. Ash soon realizes that Torkoal's Flamethrower is having little effect on Steelix, despite its weakness to fire. Remembering his fight against [[Flannery]] he orders Torkoal to use {{m|Overheat}}, and is able to defeat Steelix. Impressed, the Steelix allows Torkoal, Ash, and his friends to leave the valley without further attacks. After crossing the river Ash asks Torkoal if it'd like to join his team. {{AP|Torkoal}} tearfully accepts his offer and agrees to become one of Ash's Pokémon.

Talk:Surf (move)

== Add something to Trivia? ==

I think we should add that this move can be learned by most of the pokemon (123 in Generation IV). Or that this is the most learned Water type in this game so far.
:no, because moves like {{m|Hidden Power}} and {{m|Toxic}} can be learned by ANYONE. itd be like saying {{m|Fly}} can be learned by almost any Flying type. its self explanitory. Surf = water type. therefor, almost all the water types can learn it, along with the odd one here and there.

::Umm...
::Ditto, Caterpie, Metapod, Weedle, Kakuna, Wurmple, Silcoon and Cascoon can't learn hidden power or toxic (Unown can't learn Toxic either), i believe. [[User:Chuck67322|Chuck67322]] 05:26, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

== Hidden beta item ==

I think we should add this little trivia fact (I have done this, and it works!):
There's a hidden key item in the Generation 1 games called ????? that allows you to Surf outside of battle without the need for HM03. It can be obtained with the Gameshark code for item modifying, with the hex variable set to 07. If the game is saved while the code is active, the item stays in the pouch like any other key item, even after the GameShark is removed. To use, just go up to water, and select it from the item pouch. The item was created in the beta versions, and later made unavailable, but not removed entirely. --{{ani|250}}[[User:Fsilone|隼也

'''Meditite''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アサナン''' ''Asanan'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Medicham}} starting at [[level]] 37.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Meditite, in reference to its name, resembles a person meditating, sitting with knees bent and feet together with its hands resting on its knees. It also resembles a certain yoga position. Its lower body is blue, with white on the wrists, feet, and what seems to be pants, or possibly a diaper. Its head is also white, with an onion-like shape and large ears. Its eyes are large and seem to be focused.
====Gender differences====
A male's ears are higher up than a female's.

====Special abilities====
Its meditation gives it inner strength and spiritual power. It also is able to endure long periods without eating.

===Behavior===
They are very focused in their practices of meditation and yoga, and seem to be very spiritual Pokémon as well.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

It survives by eating one berry a day.

==In the anime==
[[File:MedititeAnime.png|thumb|220px|Maylene and her Meditite in the anime.]]
Meditite first appeared under the ownership of [[Shauna]] in ''[[AG030|A Meditite Fight]]''.

In ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', Meditite and its evolved form, {{p|Medicham}}, worked for a traveling family of circus performers. The two Meditation Pokémon used {{m|Psychic}} to make balls of water retain their form.

In ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]'', it was revealed that [[Maylene]] used a Meditite in her gym battle with [[Paul]]. Her Meditite also appeared again in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]'' in a battle with {{an|Dawn}}, where it battled against her {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} and won, then it battled against her {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}}, where it lost. Meditite was also used to battle {{AP|Ash's Staravia|Staraptor}} in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]''.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG030|Meditite|May's Pokédex|Meditite, the Meditation Pokémon. Meditite {{m|Meditate|Meditates}} in order to build up its mental energy. It is said that it eats only one [[berry]] a day.}}

==In the manga==
In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga, [[Maylene]] has a Meditite. It handily defeats {{Special|Pearl}}'s {{p|Chatot}}, who {{Special|Platinum}} borrowed in order to fight her.

'''Meditite''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アサナン''' ''Asanan'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Medicham}} starting at [[level]] 37.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Meditite, in reference to its name, resembles a person meditating, sitting with knees bent and feet together with its hands resting on its knees. It also resembles a certain yoga position. Its lower body is blue, with white on the wrists, feet, and what seems to be pants, or possibly a diaper. Its head is also white, with an onion-like shape and large ears. Its eyes are large and seem to be focused.
====Gender differences====
A male's ears are higher up than a female's.

====Special abilities====
Its meditation gives it inner strength and spiritual power. It also is able to endure long periods without eating.

===Behavior===
They are very focused in their practices of meditation and yoga, and seem to be very spiritual Pokémon as well.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

It survives by eating one berry a day.

==In the anime==
[[File:MedititeAnime.png|thumb|220px|Maylene and her Meditite in the anime.]]
Meditite first appeared under the ownership of [[Shauna]] in ''[[AG030|A Meditite Fight]]''.

In ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', Meditite and its evolved form, {{p|Medicham}}, worked for a traveling family of circus performers. The two Meditation Pokémon used {{m|Psychic}} to make balls of water retain their form.

In ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]'', it was revealed that [[Maylene]] used a Meditite in her gym battle with [[Paul]]. Her Meditite also appeared again in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]'' in a battle with {{an|Dawn}}, where it battled against her {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} and won, then it battled against her {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}}, where it lost. Meditite was also used to battle {{AP|Ash's Staravia|Staraptor}} in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]''.

== Trivia ==
*This is the last episode where [[Megan Hollingshead]] plays [[Nurse Joy]].
*For reasons unknown, this episode, as well as ''[[AG038|A Different Kind Of Misty]]'', ''[[AG039|A Pokéblock Party]]'', and ''[[AG040|Watt's With Wattson?]]'' aired only twice on American TV. These may be classified as the lost TV episodes since [[Pokémon Advanced]] underwent a three month hiatus on [[Kids' WB!]]. They can still be obtained on Volume 8 of the Advanced DVD and the Advanced DVD Box Set. Has been played once more on Cartoon Network's Pokémon Episodes that are new to the network in the summer of 2008.
*Though ''Who's That Pokémon?'' is supposed to be completely random, Seedot was prominently featured in this episode.

=== Errors ===
*Throughout the episode, an attack that involved a shiny blue powder that made things fall asleep was referred to as {{m|Stun Spore}} in the dub. This attack was obviously {{m|Sleep Powder}}.
*When {{AP|Ash's Taillow|Swellow}} uses {{m|Wing Attack}} on wild Nuzleaf, its wings are not glowing.
*When the group watches the security camera footage and first see [[Nurse Joy]], the window and curtains disappear. They reappear in the later scenes. Also, when [[Nurse Joy]] checks the window in the security camera footage, it was wide open. However, at the beginning of the episode, the window was only slightly open.
*There were a few scenes where May called out her Pokémon and she was not wearing her gloves.

'''Stun Spore''' (Japanese: '''しびれごな''' ''Numbing Powder'') is a non-damaging {{type2|Grass}} move introduced in [[Generation I]].

It appears to be a {{status|Paralysis|paralyzing}} [[move variations|counterpart]] to {{m|PoisonPowder}} and {{m|Sleep Powder}}, as the accuracy, contest group, appeal, effects, Japanese names and animation are the same or very similar. They are also usually learned at the same level or in a similar pattern.

==Effect==
===Generation I===

Stun Spore {{status|Paralysis|paralyzes}} the target.

Stun Spore can't affect a target that already has a major status ailment.

In Stadium, Stun Spore can't affect a target that has a substitute.

==In the anime==

'''Tabitha''' (Japanese: '''ホムラ''' ''Homura'') is one of the [[Magma Admin]]s of [[Team Magma]].

==In the games==
Tabitha is a Team Magma admin in the [[Generation III]] games.

In {{game|Sapphire}} he makes only two cameos, at [[Meteor Falls]] and at [[Seafloor Cavern]], alongside [[Maxie]] and [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]].

In {{game|Ruby}} the [[player]] confronts him twice: the first time he brings to Maxie the [[Meteorite]] stolen at Meteor Falls and the player has to battle him before battling Maxie. Later he assists the [[Maxie|Magma Leader]] in stealing the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] and then he must be battled at [[Aqua Hideout|Magma Hideout]].

In {{game|Emerald}} he is first met at [[Mt. Chimney]], doing the same task as in Ruby. Tabitha reappears later in the game in the [[Magma Hideout|new hideout inside the volcano]], before Maxie awakens {{p|Groudon}}. Later, he assists the Magma leader in a tag battle at [[Mossdeep Space Center]] against the player and [[Steven]].

===Pokémon===
In the games he has appeared in, Tabitha battles with the following Pokémon:

==In the anime==
Tabitha appeared in several episodes of the [[Pokémon anime]].

Due to a dubbing error, Tabitha was referred to as 'Field Commander Harland' in his first appearance in ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme]]''. This is also true for his second appearance in ''[[AG036|The Spheal Of Approval]]''. In his next appearance in ''[[AG054|Fight for the Meteorite]]'', the error was corrected.

His appearance in the anime is very different from the manga.

The following are Tabitha's Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Tabitha.PNG|right|frame|Tabitha]]
In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga, Tabitha is one of the [[FireHeads]], Admins of Team Magma - along with [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] and [[Mack]].

Like all of the FireHeads, Tabitha has a special lighter that can transmit and record images by burning them on paper.

Tabitha's specialty is direct using his Torkoal's smoke to hypnotize and poison.

{{Special|Ruby}} and {{Special|Sapphire}} were traveling along {{rt|107}} when they encountered Courtney and Tabitha. The two Magma Admins were trying to steal a deep sea scanner from the wreckage of the [[Abandoned Ship]].

Later, Team Aqua used the meteorite to cause Mt. Chimney to cease its activity. Sapphire and Flannery tried to prevent this but failed. Tabitha and Flannery cooperated to destroy Team Aqua's machine, but they were unable to re-start the volcano. However, this incident would later cause Flannery to side with Team Magma when the Gym Leaders of Hoenn wanted to choose sides.

When [[Maxie]] attempted to control both {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} through the Red and Blue Orbs, he discovered that it would be too much for his mental capacities to handle. Therefore he handed the Blue Orb to Tabitha, telling him to suppress Kyogre's will of battling. However, one of the [[SSS|Aqua Admins]], [[Sean]], managed to get the orb to [[Archie]].

But this event left a residue effect on Tabitha, as [[Wallace]] found out during their battle in the Lilycove Department Store. Even though Tabitha had only touched the orb for a short period, Kyogre's influence still managed to slip through since he did attempt to control the sea titan. [[Steven]] managed to knock him out with his {{p|Metagross}} when he attacked Wallace wildly. He, along with most other Team Magma and Aqua members, appears to have disappeared after the Groudon and Kyogre incident, though Flannery has seen him in a crowd in [[Lavaridge Town]] once.

|}

==Trivia==
* When he first appeared on the show, he was given the English name of Harland. In later appearances, this was changed back to Tabitha for consistency with the games.

== Pronunciations ==

Whoa, please, do not add pronunciations onto the name parameter of the species infobox. It looks bad, and we currently don't want to have pronunciations in the infobox. We tried that a while ago, and it only became an issue with books, anime & games having different pronunciations.

:::Oh, okay. I thought it would be useful... [[User:Chuck67322|Chuck67322]] 20:44, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
::::They would be, if all media forms would agree on the same pronunciations. Sadly, since they don't, it's hard to have pronunciations on the species articles without there being conflicts. It's great that you're trying to help out though, so thank you for trying your best to add useful information ^_^ - [[User:Kogoro|'''<sc>Kogoro</sc>''']] '''|''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<sc>Talk to me</sc>''']] - 20:47, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

==Preview your edits==
Utilize the "Preview" key when you make edits so that you can ensure that your changes, especially links, function properly. That way you can make one single edit and be done rather than making multiple small edits. --[[User:Rockersk08|rock]][[User talk:Rockersk08|ersk]][[Special:Contributions/Rockersk08|08]] 20:33, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
:I will start doing that. Thanks for the tip. [[User:Chuck67322|Chuck67322]] 20:40, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

== Know the difference between errors and trivia ==

Keep in mind that the games rules aren't always the same as anime rules. So far, Ghost moves have been always shown to work on Normal-types. So please, when you see things that could not be possible in the games but happen in the anime, put it in Trivia. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 22:48, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
:Oh...

== Synopsis ==
Ash and co are now sailing on toward Dewford Town in Mr. Briney's Peeko boat. They are all enjoying the beautiful ocean breezes and commenting on the great weather. Ash then asks Mr. Briney when he thinks they'll be in Dewford, and he tells him that they should arrive in a matter of hours. Ash asks Pikachu if it's ready, and it gets a determined look on its face. May then throws her two Pokeballs to release Torchic and Wurmple. She comments that their Pokemon should get some fresh air too, so Ash releases Taillow and Treecko while Brock releases Forretress and Lotad. Meanwhile, Team Rocket are pedaling after them in their Magikarp sub while chanting. Jessie notices the boat is pulling away and tells them to pedal faster. They all begin to chant faster and pedal faster, but the boat still pulls away. Jessie says to shift into overdrive and they begin to chant and pedal extremely fast. Wobbuffet pops out, making Jessie angry. Wurmple eats some Pokemon food then falls asleep. Treecko looks out to sea while Forretress rests and Lotad sprays Pikachu and Torchic. Taillow and Peeko fly above.

May comments on how great the ocean is and how she would love to relax and take a swim before heading to Dewford. Mr. Briney informs her that there is a small island up ahead that they could stop at for a bit. May and Max get excited, but Ash says he wants to get to Dewford quick. He turns to Pikachu for support, but all the Pokemon are relaxing. May laughs, saying Pikachu must agree with them. Ash is now a little annoyed, but Max starts to compliment him on his great battle in Rustboro. Everyone butters him up and Max adds in that stopping at the island would also give him time to train, which settles it. Max laughs to himself, saying it works every time. Mr. Briney then turns to the boat and they head toward the island. A little while later, Pikachu awakens from its sleep and jumps on Ash's shoulder. Ash points to a small island ahead and says they are going to stop there for a while. The boat speeds on while a dark figure swims after it under the water. The boat pulls into the bay while Max comments on how perfect this place is. Brock checks the guidebook as Mr. Briney explains that he used to come here all the time.

May opens the door and comes out in a pink and polka-dotted bathing suit. She models it to everyone saying how she just got it before she went on her journey. After some more modeling, she steps on the side of the boat and dives in. She surfaces a few seconds later and tells everyone the water is great. At this, Max jumps in and they begin to laugh and splash each other. From under the water, the echoes of laughter are heard by a mysterious black figure. On board, Ash asks the Pokemon if they would like to go for a swim. They all agree, but Torchic doesn't want too. Brock laughs, saying as a fire type, Torchic doesn't like to swim. They suddenly hear May and Max scream and they rush to the side of the boat to see them surrounded by a pod of Sharpedos! Mr. Briney notices this and tells Peeko to hurry. It flies over to them and they grab onto its feet. It flaps as hard as it can to lift them from the water. It slowly flies towards the boat as Sharpedo after Sharpedo leaps up to bite them. Ash tells Taillow to help and it begins to tackle the oncoming Sharpedos. One Sharpedo leaps up and skims Max's leg, leaving it bruised. Mr. Briney tells him to watch out as Sharpedo's skin is very rough. Max thinks Sharpedo is a cool Pokemon even though they are trying to devour him.

Pikachu tries to thunderbolt the pod, but they keep coming. Peeko and Taillow finally bring Max and May over the boat and drop them onto the deck. They breathe a sigh of relief. Mr. Briney asks if they are ok, and May says she's shaken up but fine. She then notices a tear in her bathing suit and rushes to the edge of the boat to yell at the Sharpedos. One of them leaps at her and she backs away frightened. Max holds his leg hoping the pain will stop. Brock says being a shark; Sharpedo's skin is very rough and could leave cuts if touched. Ash scans it with the Pokedex as the pod stares at them. Mr. Briney tells them that they have to get out of here fast as Sharpedo pods are very dangerous. The pod surrounds the boat and begins to ram it back and forth. Ash and co rock around while the leader of the pod dives and rams it again. Ash tells Pikachu to use thunderbolt, shocking the pod and giving them enough time to maneuver the boat away. That night, Mr. Briney brings the boat ashore at a different part of the island. They make a bon fire and Brock serves dinner. Mr. Briney comments on how good the food is and Brock offers them all tea. Ash then asks Mr. Briney when they plan to head for Dewford again, and he explains to him that it will be very difficult with the Sharpedo pod around.

He points out to sea where 3 Sharpedo fins protrude from the water and move around. He then explains that Sharpedos are known to be relentless, and will not leave sailors alone. Brock cuts in, saying he has heard sailors telling horrible stories about Sharpedos. He then adds in that their leader must be a good problem solver, as it figured out how to ram the boat to try and get at them. May and Max are now frightened. Meanwhile, a little offshore, Team Rocket's sub surfaces. Team Rocket emerges complaining of hunger. Jessie notices the island and Meowth says that there may be food there. Suddenly, their sub is knocked from the side by a Sharpedo. It continues to nudge the side while Jessie and Meowth freak out. They turn to James, who is frozen with terror. Just then, Meowth and Jessie notice the reason he is scared; the whole pod is on the other side! James thinks they are screwed, but Jessie decides to release Seviper. She tells it to use poison tail, which strikes a Sharpedo, but it counters with bite. Jessie tells it to use poison tail again, and it manages to strike it. Team Rocket thinks they've won, but the Sharpedo resurfaces and leads the pod in a giant rampage on the sub. Team Rocket is sent soaring. As the go, Jessie notices the Wingull boat in the bay of the island and they decide to return and steal Pikachu. That morning, Ash and co come up with a plan to stop the Sharpedo pod. Ash gets in a bucket and has Taillow and Peeko pull him across the water like in the 5th movie opening. Ash surfs across the water taunting the Sharpedos. They all charge and he speeds away.

The leader Sharpedo doesn't go as it knows it's being tricked. May, Max, Brock, and Mr. Briney now pull up a fence from the water trapping the leader in the bay. It however, speeds toward the fence and rams it, causing May to fall into the water. May surfaces to see Sharpedo heading right toward her! Everyone is too afraid to watch, but Brock thinks fast and releases Lotad. It lands in the water blocking Sharpedo. Max then has May grab onto a rope and he pulls her in. Ash makes it ashore and asks if she's ok. Sharpedo heads straight for Lotad now, and Brock tells it to use water gun, but it just sits there. Sharpedo bites down on it and swims around with it in its mouth. Brock tells it to use water gun again, and it fires a huge blast at Sharpedo. Brock tells it to strike again, but Sharpedo just lies there.

Lotad swims up to it, but it still sits there. Its eyes close and it flips over fainted! Ash and co are shocked and Brock feels bad. He brings it ashore and explains that Sharpedo seems to be poisoned! Brock feeds it some Pokemon food and says it'll be fine, but it still doesn't wake up. He tells Ash and co that it needs round the clock care, and he agrees to help it out. Lotad wants to help too. That night, Ash and co eat by the bon fire while Brock continues to stay by Sharpedo. May comments that he must really care for Pokemon; as he helps even the ones who try and harm him. Ash agrees. Brock and Lotad stay by Sharpedo as Brock tries to soothe it. The sun soon rises and everyone is asleep. Brock sleeps on top of Sharpedo and Lotad sleeps next to it. Sharpedo wakes up to see Lotad and becomes angry. It then looks at Brock sleeping on it and calms down. It places its fin on him and continues to sleep.

Suddenly, the fence around the bay breaks in an eruption from the water. Team Rocket's sub emerges and uses a net to snag Pikachu. One heads for Brock also, but Sharpedo pushes him out of the way and gets caught itself. Team Rocket says their motto and gloat at their capture. Brock tells them to release Sharpedo, as it is poisoned and needs help. Jessie laughs, saying her Seviper poisoned it with its poison tail attack. Brock gets angry and notices Lotad surfacing right by the sub. He tells it to cut the nets with razor leaf. It does so and Sharpedo and Pikachu swim away. Pikachu makes it ashore and Ash tells it to use thunderbolt. He then stops it and says he'll let their new friends take care of it. Team Rocket is confused and Ash tells them to look behind them. Team Rocket turns to see the whole Sharpedo pod behind them! They ram the sub as before, sending them blasting off!

Brock runs into the water to make sure Sharpedo is ok. It swims up to him and Lotad jumps off of it and into Brock's arms. Suddenly, the whole pod swarms Brock. He freaks out, thinking their rough skin will hurt him, but he suddenly notices that they feel smooth. Mr. Briney laughs, saying Sharpedo skin is only rough to opponents or prey. May and Max walk up to them and begin to pet their smooth bodies. Ash does the same and Brock asks Sharpedo if they can leave peacefully now. It nods and they take off. That evening, the Peeko boat makes it to Dewford Town's harbor. Ash and co thank Mr. Briney for all his help. They then turn to the Sharpedo pod, which have followed them to Dewford. The pod turns and swims away, waving their dorsal fins as they go. Ash then makes a fist, now ready to compete for his 2nd Hoenn badge!
