==My Ideas==
If there's a Pokémon Sun and Moon, I would like it to be in any eastern regions. I would like to have a Lunatic Rabbit and Immortal Pokémon since I am a Touhou Fan. [[User:CoffeeMilkshakes|CoffeeMilkshakes]] ([[User talk:CoffeeMilkshakes|talk]]) 06:27, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[[User:CoffeeMilkshakes]]

==What generation?==
I know this is very unusual, having a talk page created before its main page counterpart, but do we have enough information to outright confirm S/M as part of Generation VII? [[User:Bwburke94|Bwburke94]] ([[User talk:Bwburke94|talk]]) 15:10, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
:I know generations aren't really official per se, so there's no way of really knowing, especially without knowing what region they take place in. [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 15:21, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
::No confirmation yet, but the [http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-video-games/pokemon-sun-and-pokemon-moon/ official website] mentions that you have to use Pokémon Bank to trade from XYORAS, which would suggest a new gen as otherwise you could just trade directly. --[[User:Dorsal Axe|Dorsal Axe]] ([[User talk:Dorsal Axe|talk]]) 15:32, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
:::Also another hint that this game is in Gen VII is in the decription of [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmzDL1l3Fag this clip] I cite "The next era of Pokémon games has been announced! Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon are coming to the Nintendo 3DS family of systems in late 2016! Visit our site for more information!" --[[User:Raltseye|Ralts]][[User talk:Raltseye|eye]] 15:51, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

Could someone add this?

And this. Thought the language codes for Chinese aren't quite right, the template doesn't currently support any other way of doing it. The "Mandarin" name is the name in Simplified characters, and the "Cantonese" one is the Traditional characters name. The Taiwanese name would be Mandarin as well, but written the "Cantonese way". - [[User:BZD|BZD]] ([[User talk:BZD|talk]]) 17:15, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

== Chinese Logos ==

Since when do we put Chinese logos in the gallery? :O [[User:MannedTooth| MannedTooth ]] ([[User_Talk:MannedTooth|Talk]]) 01:01, 27 February 2016 (UTC)
:Since they started existing. These are the first games officially translated into Chinese. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 01:08, 27 February 2016 (UTC)

:::I think it's because they use a different writing system for their language, unlike the European ones, all of which use the romanian alphabet.

== A little bit of trivia ==

These are the first non-remake games since Red, Green and Blue that use symbols on their logos. --[[User:Gabo 2oo|Gabo 2oo]] ([[User talk:Gabo 2oo|talk]]) 03:54, 29 February 2016 (UTC)

::"Non-remake." [[User:Luckytama|Luckytama]] ([[User talk:Luckytama|talk]]) 04:02, 29 February 2016 (UTC)
:::Considering the kinds of symbols that are on {{gameabbrev3|RGB}}, I think excluding remakes is a very arbitrary condition; the symbols on the remakes are used very like those on RBG. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 04:11, 29 February 2016 (UTC)

'''Kris''' (Japanese: '''{{j|クリス}}''' ''Kris'') is the female playable character in {{game|Crystal}}. Her male counterpart is {{ga|Ethan}}.

She was the first female player character in the [[core series]] games, a feature that would be carried on in subsequent game releases.

As she only appears in {{game|Crystal}}, she has the fewest appearances by a player character in the core series. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, she is replaced by {{ga|Lyra}}.

Kris does not have an official name due to her lack of name in the internal game data and the fact she does not appear as a non-player character. Instead, the name Kris comes from the back of the American Pokémon Crystal version's boxart. The name Kris is also the first default name.

==Storyline in the games==
Kris's journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] begins when [[Professor Elm]] asks her to run an errand for [[Mr. Pokémon]], who lives north of [[Cherrygrove City]]. Because she may encounter dangerous [[wild Pokémon]] along the way, Elm gives her a choice between three Pokémon to protect her: {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Totodile}} or {{p|Chikorita}}.

Kris meets a boy watching Elm's Lab from outside. When she tries to talk to him, the boy abruptly shoves her away. The boy, {{ga|Silver}}, will become Kris's rival, analogous to {{ga|Blue}} in [[Generation I]].

Kris continues onward and finally meets Mr. Pokémon and completes her errand. While there she meets [[Professor Oak]] who, upon realizing Kris's bond with her new Pokémon, gives her a [[Pokédex]]. On her way back home, Kris again meets Silver, who has stolen one of Elm's remaining Pokémon. After defeating the boy in battle, she learns his name and relays it to the police in New Bark Town. Professor Elm allows Kris to keep the Pokémon she chose earlier, and encourages her to compete in the [[Johto League]].

From there Kris begins on a Pokémon journey in the [[Johto]] [[region]], facing off against its eight [[Gym Leader]]s, defeating and disbanding the newly reformed [[Team Rocket]], and becoming [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]] by defeating the [[Elite Four]] and its previous Champion, [[Lance]] at [[Indigo Plateau]]. Along the way she also teaches Silver to respect Pokémon as living creatures and not just as tools for battle. Kris also uncovered the mystery of the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]] and its legendary Pokémon, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, and {{p|Raikou}}.

After being declared the Pokémon League Champion, Kris then takes a short trip on a ship, the [[S.S. Aqua]], from [[Olivine City]] to [[Vermilion City]] in [[Kanto]]. Journeying across that region, she battles against its own set of eight Gym Leaders, including two new faces, [[Janine]], who replaced her father [[Koga]] on his promotion to the Elite Four, and {{ga|Blue}}, who was formerly Pokémon League Champion himself, and replaced [[Giovanni]] after the latter fled. Upon getting permission from [[Professor Oak]] in [[Pallet Town]], Kris heads for [[Mt. Silver]] via {{rt|28|Kanto}}. Her journey comes to a close when she faces the Champion from Pallet Town Pokémon Trainer {{ga|Red}} deep in Mt. Silver Cave, who had been training there since shortly after he became Pokémon League Champion [[Generation I|three years prior]].

==Trivia==
[[File:Crystal prototype FC.png|thumb|Screenshots of an earlier design for Kris]]
* Kris is the first playable female character in [[Pokémon games]], a feature included in all traditional Pokémon RPGs since. Despite this, the female choice in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} is {{ga|Lyra}}, who was designed from scratch by [[Takao Unno]].
** However, an unused PokéGear icon in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, resembling Kris rather than Lyra, suggests that this was decided at a later point of development.
* Several pre-release screenshots for {{game|Crystal}} show an earlier design for Kris.
* Kris's alternate Japanese names would later be shared with {{ga|Leaf}}, {{ga|Dawn}}, and {{ga|Lyra}}.

'''Clefairy''' (Japanese: '''ピッピ''' ''Pippi'') is a main character in the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[Magical Pokémon Journey]] and its sequel, [[Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪]]. He is the second {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} befriended by [[Hazel]], first appearing in ''[[PPP02|Clefairy Comes Through!]]''. Like many Pokémon in the manga, he is able to speak human language.

==History==
{{incomplete|section}}
[[File:Cleffa MPJ.png|thumb|left|200px|As a Cleffa]]
Clefairy originated as a Cleffa in [[Mt. Moon]]. He was raised by his evolutionary relatives, one of them who is his brother, {{p|Clefable}}. One day, while [[Pikachu (MPJ)|Pichu]] was whacking a giant apple like a piñata, Cleffa was by the bushes, all lonesome. As Pichu had blindfolds on at the time, he accidentally trips on Cleffa, crashing to the ground. Cleffa decided to join Pichu, {{MPJ|Jigglypuff}}, and {{p|Igglybuff}} on their adventures after supporting Cleffa. While on their way to Mt. Moon, the four of them get attacked by a {{p|Houndour}} and its pack. Cleffa was too shy to battle them until the pack made their move. Cleffa and the others stopped them by using {{m|Charm}}. Cleffa and the group along with two Houndour arrive in Mt. Moon where Cleffa got to reunite with Clefable. As Pichu and the others were about to leave, Cleffa became sad when they did so and wanted to tag along. Clefable accepted Cleffa's decision and Cleffa tagged along with Pichu and the others.

Cleffa evolved into Clefairy sometime before ''[[PPP02|Clefairy Comes Through]]''.

Afterwards, two [[Ekans Brothers|Ekans]] started to pick on Clefairy. Hazel arrived to scare them away and met Clefairy. Hazel then helped Clefairy get over his fear by training. They started with a {{p|Metapod}} but even though it could only {{m|harden}} itself, Clefairy was still scared. The two Ekans from before returned with {{MPJ|Arbok}}. Clefairy defended Hazel from them by successfully defeating the trio with {{m|Mega Punch}}.

In ''[[PPP06|Christmas Wishes]]'', Clefairy and his friends went to {{MPJ|Wigglytuff}}'s mansion to celebrate Christmas.

==Personality and characteristics==
Clefairy is defined by his meek and shy personality, reflected in his Timid [[nature]]. He tries to overcome his shyness in ''[[PPP07|Adventuring The Stone]]'', however, he fails all the tests that [[Almond]] sets for him. Despite his shortcomings, he is a talented artist.

He is a compassionate Pokémon that cares deeply for Hazel, venturing up a treacherous mountain to rescue her in ''[[PPP08|The Legendary Articuno]]''. He is also deeply upset when he thinks that Hazel no longer wants to be friends with him in ''[[PPPB05|Valentine Heartbeats]]''.

When required to defend himself, Clefairy is a competent battler, using the powerful {{m|Metronome}} technique.

He has an older brother, {{p|Clefable}}.

'''Jigglypuff''' (Japanese: '''プリン''' ''Purin'') is one of the main characters of [[Magical Pokémon Journey]].



== Personality and characteristics ==
Jigglypuff's family is apparently rich; she and her sister {{MPJ|Wigglytuff}} live in a mansion with maids and a butler ({{MPJ|Squirtle}}).

Jigglypuff is very spoiled. She's used to being treated like a little princess and always getting her own way. Whenever she gets mad, she puffs up to an enormous size. She also puffs up to float, and once when she fell from a cliff. She also loves to cook, but everything she makes tastes absolutely vile. In fact, some of the food she makes has almost killed people, or made them explode or faint. Only {{p|Snorlax}} can handle her food.

She likes to follow butterflies.

'''Jigglypuff''' (Japanese: '''プリン''' ''Purin'') is one of the main characters of [[Magical Pokémon Journey]].


== Personality and characteristics ==
Jigglypuff's family is apparently rich; she and her sister {{MPJ|Wigglytuff}} live in a mansion with maids and a butler ({{MPJ|Squirtle}}).

Jigglypuff is very spoiled. She's used to being treated like a little princess and always getting her own way. Whenever she gets mad, she puffs up to an enormous size. She also puffs up to float, and once when she fell from a cliff. She also loves to cook, but everything she makes tastes absolutely vile. In fact, some of the food she makes has almost killed people, or made them explode or faint. Only {{p|Snorlax}} can handle her food.

She likes to follow butterflies.

'''Pikachu''' (Japanese: '''ピカチュウ''') is a main character in the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[Magical Pokémon Journey]] and its sequel, [[Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪]].

==History==
{{incomplete|section}}
[[File:Pichu MPJ.png|thumb|left|As a Pichu]]
Pikachu was eating an apple as a Pichu during his childhood until {{MPJ|Jigglypuff}} and an {{p|Igglybuff}} came by with a giant apple. As Pichu was going to whack the apple like a piñata, he jumped and missed {{p|Cleffa}} who was {{MPJ|Clefairy}}'s pre-evolution and crashed onto the ground. Cleffa joined Pichu, Jigglypuff, and Igglybuff along. As they walked, Pichu and the group noticed a {{p|Houndour}} who attacked. Pichu striked Houndour with his electricity, and Jigglypuff and Igglybuff did the finisher. As the rest of the pack of Houndour attacked, Pichu {{m|charm}}ed them and the pack stopped their attack. Pichu went to Mt. Moon and Cleffa called out his family. As Cleffa reunited, Pichu and the others left but Cleffa became sad as he wanted to go with them. The family accepted Cleffa's decision and Pichu, along with Jigglypuff, Igglybuff, and the two Houndour that went with them became happy.

==Personality and characteristics==
Pikachu is scatterbrained and easily confused. He is one of the few Pokémon in the Magical Pokémon Journey canon which cannot speak human language, though the other characters seem to be able to understand him.

He is close to {{MPJ|Clefairy}} and is rarely seen without him. He is also very loyal to [[Hazel]]. When he thought Hazel had died in ''[[PPP08|The Legendary Articuno]]'', he traveled up a treacherous mountain to try to bring her back to life. He was also upset in ''[[PPPB05|Valentine Heartbeats]]'' when he thought that Hazel no longer wanted to be friends with him.

Like Clefairy, Pikachu does not appear to be too bright - he is unable to solve simple math problems presented by [[Coconut's Eevee]] and fails all of [[Almond]]'s manliness tests.

==Trivia==
*Pikachu's inability to speak human language in a world where other Pokémon can is similar to another Pikachu, {{TP|Red|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)}}.

== "Composed is a more musical term" ==

You recently reverted some of my edits and stated that "Composed is a more musical term" although compose is generally used in a musical term it is not exclusive to music and is perfectly acceptable in many other contexts. Composed of means that the subject of the sentence is made of the object. In the Veilstone City example the dojo is made of several smaller rooms, as I stated earlier comprise is to be used as an active verb so "comprised of" is inappropriate as this is a passive verb so in the Veilstone City example "Veilstone Gym is a dojo comprised of several smaller rooms" means that it is a dojo contained within several smaller rooms which shouldn't make any sense. The argument you used to support "comprised of" is that it "flows" better, this shouldn't be an issue with "composed of" as the pronunciation is very similar. So in conclusion "composed of" should be just as good, maybe even better. Thank you. [[User:Ratchet and Clank 1995|Ratchet and Clank 1995]] ([[User talk:Ratchet and Clank 1995|talk]]) 16:54, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
:You seem to be laboring under the same misconception as [[User talk:ShinyGiratina#Comprised|another user was]]; "comprised" very much does not have to equal "contains". Passive usage is also not wrong (both Wiktionary and Webster's have quotes using "comprised of").
:In short, there is not really a good reason to change "comprised of". It was discussed on your talk page before. If you weren't convinced, you really should have revisited that discussion, instead of revisiting the pages you were previously reverted on. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 20:16, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
::Context, my friend. If something is "comprised of" an object, it '''consists of''' or '''contains''' the object. --[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:41, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

== Linkage ==

On episode articles featuring first-stage Pokémon (i.e.: Froakie) that appeared in flashbacks but already evolved several episodes ago, would it be okay to link it to the form it's currently in on the list of Pokémon that appeared in the episode so Ash's Froakie's flashback appearance in [[XY085]] occurred way after it evolved meaning I could link it to Frogadier's page, or would that still count as spoilers? [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 03:29, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

== Regarding edit in Route 4 ==

Hi!

I see that you undid my edit in the [[Kanto Route 4]] page. Regarding the reason you gave, there is only as much north in Route 4 in Gen I and III, as there is in Gen II and IV, as you can see in the route map. As per current info, Mt. Moon is to the north of Route 4 only in Gen II and IV, so how would a player reach Mt. Moon in Gen I and III? They have to go through Route 4 and after entering Route 4, they have to go in the '''Northern''' direction (or rather North-Western), just like in Gen II and IV. If it stays as you have now made it, then it would mean that Mt. Moon cannot be reached through Route 4 in Gen I and III, which is incorrect.

[[User:Ishu bagaria|Ishu bagaria]] ([[User talk:Ishu bagaria|talk]]) 20:32, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
:Mt. Moon is '''part''' of Route 4 in Generations I and III. To get to Mt. Moon, you have to traverse through Route 4.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:55, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Talk:Ash's_Talonflame#Can_we_put_this_photo_please This kind of edit] is within reasonable grounds for editing others' comments, right?

== Pre-evolution tutor moves ==

A while ago, I got into a small [[User_talk:CycloneGU#Tutoring|disagreement]] with another user on how to handle certain pre-evolution exclusive moves. After discussing it for a while on his talk page, he suggested I bring it up with an admin, which I think I meant to do but kind of forgot to until now. The edits in question are [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Musharna_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&diff=2234484&oldid=2234477 here], [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Musharna_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&diff=2234555&oldid=2234543 here], and [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Ludicolo_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&diff=2234557&oldid=2234549 here]. The source of disagreement was on whether or not certain moves that could only be obtained via pre-evolution in XY but could be tutored in ORAS needed any special indication on the table. I provided a few examples on his talk page of learnsets where this had been done in the past (for move tutors available in Emerald/B2W2/Pt/HGSS but not the other games of the generation), including the Generation V learnsets of both Pokémon in question. I'm just wondering which is correct, the old pages or the new ones? And if the new ones are correct, do the old ones need to be updated, or is it just a special exception for Gen VI?--[[User:Cold|Cold]] ([[User talk:Cold|talk]]) 15:12, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
:I feel like the tags also implies that it knows the moves prior to evolution only in those games, as in Musharna would only know Zen Headbutt prior to evolution only in XY, which is obviously not the case. Another thing, the reason of move tutors making the prior learning pointless doesn't really matter. It doesn't mean Zen Headbutt can't be both tutored and learned before evolution. As for which is correct, it's obvious that I'm saying get rid of them, but ask another admin for another opinion. That, and I'm kinda out of touch with the learnlist templates, so I don't really remember which is the correct way.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 15:31, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

== Mobile browsers and Ads ==

Hi Force Fire.
After writing a long message to only have it not submit properly. I'm trying again.
This issue has been a huge pet peeve of mine for the past month.
Ads, which bind to right side and bottom, take up ~3/4 of a page on a mobile screen. Rendering the use of the wiki page virtually impossible.
They stay outside the frame for the text of the article. But, things like route maps fallout side of those frames on mobile, and then underneath ads.
Also, zooming in doesn't move the ads out of view, they stick with you, so now if something was too small to read, it's large enough but gets covered up.
Lastly. I discovered logging in removes the ads, sure nice, but logging in every time I come here shouldn't be necessary

I searched for well over an hour to find a feedback place on the site. But to no luck. Contacting you is the best solution I came up with. Hopefully you will be able to push this information and come up with a good solution. ([[User:Wingeddonkey|Wingeddonkey]] ([[User talk:Wingeddonkey|talk]]) 05:44, 10 September 2015 (UTC))
:Hello, regarding technical aspects of the site you are best to ask [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/members/1.html Archaic on the forums], or create a thread on [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f195/ the bulbawiki forum]. --[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:57, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

:I don't dislike you. But if you are going to persist on doing the same thing over and over, I'm going to be harsh. You can add trivia (as long as it's notable), you can add personality (as long as it's well written). We don't need gifs, at least, not a ton of it since too many of it can slow down the site. You also need to realize when an article has too many images. [[Ash's Talonflame]] already has a lot of images, adding another would make it look terrible.

== Pokémon world in relation to the real world ==

You reverted an edit in which I removed information about a Spearow nicknamed "Kenya". I fail to see how this is relevant because it's just a name, what next "There is a character from the Diamond and Pearl series called Paris, the name of a city in France". If the Spearow called Kenya is allowed then so should the example I listed. The main issue I have with this one is that the others actually mention the location whereas in this instance it is just the name of a Pokemon. Does this mean that any character in Pokemon with a name that is also a place therefore a reference to the to the geographical location?

The Spearow called Kenya however has no other supporting evidence to suggest the country as I've kept mention it is only a name, did the person mention that he named it after the country? As there is no other evidence it could still refer to the commune. Your point about people would "most likely" know the country is subjective because it depends on the people you would ask and there are probably some people who haven't heard of the country also do you have any evidence to support your claim? Finally it shouldn't be about how well known a place is because the fact is a Spearow is only named Kenya which could refer to a lot of things or none of them.{{unsigned|Ratchet and Clank 1995}}

If ''no one'' has expanded that article beyond that paltry single sentence in the three years it's been around, then it's pretty solidly ''obscure'' or of low significance.)

(resetting indent) You are just beginning to make up crazy examples now to try to get the article the way you want it. If you name your pet bird Germany, there is really only one thing you can have named it after (the country Germany). Same thing essentially for Kenya. Kenya and Mount Kenya both have their names come from a specific language's name for the mountain, so in effect that is the same thing. However, the mountain is much less known than the country (in fact, I was not aware there was a Mount Kenya until reading this talk). Aside from those specific examples, there is absolutely nothing else of prominence named Kenya, and the country is much more prominent than a mountain that resides within the country Kenya. So yes, in all effect, Kenya in this case would be a reference to the country, and the only way to prove otherwise is to have the person that originally named the Spearow come out and say they named it after something else.

Shows truly helpful Pokemon as it life before meeting Clemont was stealing from people food to feed its friends. As it was also will defend his friends from others who try to hurt them or steal their food. As Bunnbly have lost that battle from his evolved form to protect its friends was willing to train hard from Clemont to defeat as it was showing great determination. Even winning that battle against its evolve form it shown to worry it as it was hurt as it was trying to make the evolve form as it friend but it's shows to get sadly when failing. --[[User:SilverioFlame|SilverioBOMB ]] ([[User talk:SilverioFlame|talk]]) 05:29, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

:Levels don't exist in the anime, it was mentioned once way back when, but the concept of levels do not exist.

:::Sorry to intrude, but just to chime in on levels. If levels did exist, Pikachu would not have actually learned Volt Tackle on his own (only learned in the games when bred while the parent holds a Light Ball) and, from the level concept, should be Lv.100ish by now and able to destroy every opponent (which, obviously, he can't).

== Thoughts? ==

The five limited-time Pokémon available from Hayley, such as [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Meowth_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&type=revision&diff=2335498&oldid=2330420 this Meowth], should be listed as events because they were special events, even if they weren't directly obtained in the games or via Wifi but were tradeable to the games. Should they get a different layout instead, such as in-game events? I thought the latter is limited to things that are forever obtainable, though. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 15:33, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
:Yeah, I think it should count as an event, it was available for a limited time, hell the Haley's Trade page has the Meowth under the Event Pokémon section. I think the current layout would do fine, I personally wouldn't count it as an in game trade as you have to go from one game (to get the Pokémon) to another (to trade it) so it isn't contained into one game, which in game trade (for me) implies.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 15:48, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
::The question though is that's only available in ''[[My Pokémon Ranch]]'' and you have to then trade it to D/P/Pl. This still qualifies under the event listing? I just want to be sure before doing the other four as well. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 15:50, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

::::Thought I would jump in here since I just replied on my talk page too about this same discussion. But the "In events" section is typically reserved for events that were distributed directly to the main games and have Wonder Cards. So with them being available in a side game, they would be meeting the criteria for a "In-game event". '''[[User:Lady Ariel|Lady]] [[User talk:Lady Ariel|Ariel]]''' 16:22, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
:::::That was my concern, as well. They don't, I think, meet the criteria for an event with a Wonder Card. That said, they ARE events, without question; players had to "download" the event onto ''My Pokémon Ranch'', they couldn't just play and wait for it to appear. So the question is whether the criteria of having a Wonder Card limits where they go or whether this is a case where we ignore that. I thought it was an in-game event because it's in a side game, has to be acquired in a side game, and then transferred. It's like the [[List of game-based Pok%C3%A9mon distributions in Generation IV#Japanese Pokémon Battle Revolution Pikachu|Battle Revolution Pikachu]] or the Colosseum one from the [[List of game-based Pokémon distributions in Generation III#Colosseum Pikachu|bonus disc]]; come to think of it, they are just as game-based as there, so maybe they should also appear on that page and not just on Hayley's trades. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 17:21, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
::::::A quick addendum to this: most in-game events are permanently available. This also breaks the mould there by being a rare limited-time in-game event. So it has no Wonder Card (unless we just don't know and it actually does), thereby not meeting "events" criteria, and it is limited-time, thereby not meeting in-game criteria completely. Which rule are we going to break here? [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 17:28, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
:::::::These events defiantly do not have Wonder Cards since they had to be traded for and I am pretty sure there aren't Wonder Cards in the game. However, in-game events being available for a limited time isn't unheard of since events like {{DL|List of game-based Pokémon distributions in Generation VI|Pokémon Bank Celebi}} are considered in-game events. I would also like to point out that the Pokémon Ranger events in Generation IV were only available via special missions (which had to be downloaded during a specific period of time), so unless you got the mission while it was available you can't obtain the event anymore. And therefore the only way you would still be able to get those events is if you have a game with those missions downloaded on them. However, as for putting the My Pokémon Ranch special Pokémon on the game-based distribution page there is one problem with that. When we overhauled the events section a few years back, we only classified Generation IV game-based events with Wonder Cards as belonging on that page. I don't recall the exact reasons for that though (so when I get I chance I will have to check my logs with {{u|SnorlaxMonster}} to see if we ever elaborated on that).

== The Underground and the Mystery Zone ==

{{u|SatoMew2}} has added a {{DL|The Underground|Mystery Zone}} section to [[The Underground]], believing that "Mystery Zone" is an intentional name for the area. I believe that "Mystery Zone" is, plain and simple, ''nothing'' but a dummy/placeholder name and is not really intended to be a name for the Underground. This appears because the game reads a 0 for [[List of locations by index number (Generation IV)|the location]], but it is too easy for 0 to just be an initial/default value (never actually meaningfully assigned), so that doesn't amount to good evidence. And of course, "Mystery Zone" is just, logically, not a likely alias for the Underground. SatoMew and I [[User talk:SatoMew2#Underground/Mystery Zone|have tried to discuss]] it, but it doesn't seem we'll agree, so I was hoping you (or someone on staff) could decide whether that section really belongs on the page. Thanks. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:42, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
:If it being 0x0000 is not good evidence, then neither would be values other than 0x0000 since that's what happens with the location headers displayed by the game in the [[void]]. The Underground's location header is set to 0x0000 on purpose because there is no "Underground" header programmed.
:This sums up my POV.[[User talk:SatoMew2|サトミュウ (SatoMew)]] 19:09, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
::Can you at least say if this is being considered, or has been?
::To put it very simply, I think the Underground should discuss the ''actual'' Underground (i.e., ''actuall''/real/intended gameplay), and if any relation between [[The Underground]] and the [[Mystery Zone]] really needs to be discussed, it belongs at [[Mystery Zone]] (where bugs and quirks are ''explicitly'' at issue). It's overall rare that any sort of glitch behavior is discussed in detail outside of a Project GlitchDex page, and I think that's as it should be, and something we should take to heart for the Underground as well. The Mystery Zone is not even a significant (easily encounterable, or else infamous) feature of the Underground, not like, say, [[Lumiose City]]'s save bug or perhaps glitches associated with [[Cinnabar Island]]—and ''both'' of those pages relegate mentions of the glitch(es) to Trivia anyway. No, at best, you need to work very ''deliberately'' to enter the Mystery Zone and find the Underground therein, and only then does any of the stuff currently in [[The Underground#Mystery Zone]] become relevant. Title card or no, IMO the "wealth" of Mystery Zone info that is currently being added to [[The Underground]] simply does not belong there. The title card info should IMO just be put in Trivia, and that should be ''all'' of the Mystery Zone that appears on the page. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 08:44, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
:::I'm not too knowledgeable about the internal data stuff, but I think SatoMew2 has contradicted himself. "Even some actual yet unused maps use "Mystery Zone", I mean, sure the Underground was not unused but if the "Mystery Zone" was used for the dummied out stuff, then doesn't that mean "Mystery Zone" itself is just a dummy/placeholder? Because of that, I think it should not be in the underground article.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 09:36, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
::::I didn't contradict myself. "Mystery Zone" is seen in both used and unused locations, and there are unused locations that don't use it. These locations are intentionally set to use the header as opposed to falling back to it during gameplay.
::::The fact that we just stick everything into Trivia sections is another matter altogether ("it's OK because we have always done it like this" is not a good excuse). These bugs are not trivial and it doesn't matter if the player's actions to trigger them are deliberate or not. [[User talk:SatoMew2|サトミュウ (SatoMew)]] 18:16, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
:::::I think the amount of effort you do or don't need to encounter a bug does very much matter. If it's very easy, then it deserves modest coverage; otherwise, however, it only deserves a small mention (in Trivia or wherever, I don't at this exact moment care), maybe a link to a Project GlitchDex page where it can be covered in detail, but a bug, ''unintended by definition'', does not (IMO) deserve extensive coverage among all the normal behavior of a thing.

== [[XY094]] ==

A few pokemon fans pointed out a couple months ago that new pokemon merchandise was being released featuring the cast of the anime. (You can simply google "Chespin Evolving Merchandise" to find a lot of the links, since I know Bulbapedia is a bit weird about directly posting the links.) Now, I posted an idea on another forum that casually talks about the anime, but apparently the idea is gaining momentum on some of the bigger pokemon forums. That Ash is going to catch the Quilladin in this episode. It might be worth to pre-emptively semi-protect this page. Not full on protection obviously as it's just a silly fan idea, but a semi-protect might be worth it because although there's no clear evidence (which would be cause for a full on protection), I would think there's enough that people would be drawn to eventually edit the page as they start seeing people talk about it. The merchandise alone seems to suggest a Quilladin WILL be a part of the team sometime soon and there's been nothing to suggest Clemont's will evolve.
Coupled with the fact that suddenly, there's this episode which takes place after the poster line-up, which happens to have said pokemon in it, and happens to be the correct type Ash needs to fill in his usual Water/Fire/Grass elemental wheel and of the correct stage to not be a direct copy of Clemont. This wouldn't be completely unheard of, as a user on said board who talks casually about the anime, Misty did have both Staryu and Starmie on her team at the same time, so although it'd be a first for two different people to have different evos of the same pokemon, it's not entirely unheard of. Obviously, up to you/other admins on if they want to wait to see if people start trying to add it, but I figure pre-emptive strikes might be worth it? [[User:Myzou|Myzou]] ([[User talk:Myzou|talk]]) 02:17, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Perhaps I'm late to the party discussing this, but these examples above, I think, demonstrate why we needn't put this note on Talonflame's page. The only example of a Pokémon changing its ability in the anime is Paul's Electivire which as a species loses access to Static in favour of Motor Drive. I know that anime doesn't always go by the same rules as the games but we have consistently been shown Pokémon using the same abilities throughout all stages of there evolution.

:It's done on [[Ash's Leavanny]]. Sceptile is automatically invalid since at the time, it only had one ability. Fletchinder and Talonflame have two, the primary and hidden ability. The writers could decide to give Talonflame its hidden ability for whatever reason. Yes, that's speculation but it is also speculation when you assume Talonflame has the same ability as Fletchinder just because it also normally has Flame Body.

== Pangoro Slash ==

Seriously, why are you an admin and whoever gave you the power of the undo button must want this site to burn. It is easily seen as Slash in XY071. Why don't you tell me what else it could have been when Pangoro grew its claws, turned them white, and SLASHED the opponent. Well it must have been Water Gun huh, how stupid of us. Stop doing counter productive things.--[[User:Pikablu|Pikablu]] ([[User talk:Pikablu|talk]]) 05:37, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
:Could've been Scratch. Or False Swipe. Or Cut. Or Fury Swipes. Yes, I know it can't learn Scratch or Fury Swipes, but the anime can make it use those moves because... just because. Anyways, we don't assume the moves of a Pokémon unless it is stated by one of the characters. Just because it looks like a move, doesn't mean it ''is'' the move. Hydro Pump and Water Gun basically share the same animation in the anime. So does Bubble and Bubblebeam. So does Bite and Crunch. So does Thunderbolt and ThunderShock. So does HeadButt and Tackle. So does Explosion and Self-destruct. So does Wrap, Bind, and Constrict. Bottom line, many moves share an animation so don't just assume a move.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:59, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
::Force Fire, I have to wonder weather you actually watch the anime? The suspected moves in question being Pangoro's Slash, Glaceon's Ice Shard, Flareon's Fire Spin, Vaporeon's Aqua Jet and Jolteon's Thunder; of these the only one that could be argued is perhaps Jolteon's Thunder, although I'd wager highly that Thunder was the move used. If the move is not named on screen how can we be sure what that move is? Well it turns out there is a precedent (an earlier event or action that is regarded as an example or guide to be considered in subsequent similar circumstances) for that.

::When the episode BW007 aired we saw Snivy use an unidentifiable grass type attack; the move used a new animation and there was no way of telling what the move used was, the same happed in XY003 when the Flethcling Ash was battling used an unidentifiable move with its wings. In both cases the moves were not documented at the time whatsoever, other moves like Vine Whip and Double Team were not named in the respective episodes but they were assumed to be those moves as the animations are conclusive. The former two moves were later revealed to be Leaf Storm and Razor Wind, as the two Pokémon continually appeared with the main cast, and they were documented on Bulbapedia as if they were known from the start. The problem here is that none of these Pokémon are on the main cast and its not certain we'll get confirmation in the same way that we did with Leaf Storm and Razor Wind. However, nearly half of the moves used in the anime and indeed the moves documented on Bulbapedia were unnamed and assumed.

::There are even moves used in the same episodes that were unnamed and yet assumed here. Further precedents take us back to "White—Victini and Zekrom" and "Black—Victini and Reshiram" where in the movie, Reshiram used a fire type move that was unnamed on screen. The head of the entire Anime project: Kenji- Girl was asked weather she thought the move was Flamethrower or Overheat, she decided it was Flamethrower and it is documented as such. Keji- Girl's example in this situation is to use our initiative and simply agree.

::Furthermore, in Tangrowth's debut episode, it used a move where its arm glowed purple and it struck the opponent, unnamed in the episode but nevertheless documented as Poison Jab for several years before one user recognised the moves animation more closely resembled Power Whip, a move that had not been shown again and named for almost a year after Tangowth's debut. The appropriate changes were made one the '''consensus''' had been made.

::In the case of Pangoro's attack, we have always assumed legitimate attacks before errors, ruling out Scratch and Fury Swipes, Cut has been shown in the XY anime and the animation is distinguishable. The case you put forward for False Swipes is the only one with grounds however my rebottle is that we, historically, assume a move that sees a lot of use over a move rarely seen. The move matches Slash and we have no false swipes to compare it to.

::Glacoen's move, I can hardly believe is even subject to debate. The animation matches BW's Ice Shard. While was have not yet seen Ice Shard used and named in XY. We can surely assume the move is Ice Shard, same as we assumed that Golbat used Air Slash in XY052; the move was never named and it has not appeared at any other time in XY but we assumed it to be Air Slash as it shared the animation with the BW Air Slash.

::Flareon's very clearly used Fire Spin as the stream of dire instantly began to form circles. This is what we've always recognised as the distinguishing factor between Flamethrower and Fire Spin. This has been used many times when the move was neither specified Flamethrower of Fire spin. Both pages have many times listed where the move was not named on screen but the initiative of the users arrived at a decision. On a side note, assuming you have actually seen the clip of the move in question, do you doubt the move is Fire Spin?

::As with the case of Ice Shard, the animation of the move used by Vaporeon matches BW's depiction (and DP's, for that matter) of Aqua Jet. This move would be, however, an error and as I argued in Pangoro's case "''we have always assumed legitimate attacks before errors''". My aforementioned statement, while still having validity concerning Pangoro, has no bearing on Vaporeon and is in no way a contradiction. Anime move errors happen a lot, in the XY series we've seen a Fletchling use Feather Dance and a Slurpuff using Electro ball, two errors, however they were named. Nidoran♂'s Bite, Froslass's Slash, Dusknoir's Rapid Spin, Regigigas's Hammer Arm, Baltoy and Claydol's Shock Wave, Politoad's Jump Kick, Skunktank's X- Scissor, Uxie and Mespirit's Teleport, Chingling and Chimecho's Sing, Kricetune's Bullet Seed, Unown's Psychic and Tediursa's Pound are only half of the errors documented on bulbapedia that were not named onscreen. These are precedents that say the animation is conclusive. Your comment that "''the other[s] could be illegal moves as well''" is a nonsensical argument; you may as well argue that May caught another Venasaur rather than evolving it from Bulbasaur because it was never said to have evolved on screen. Or even that every time Ash's Pikachu has ever used Thunderbolt, it was a script error and the move was actually Thundershock. Your argument is pedantic.

::Thuder, Thundershock and Thunderbolt have always been similar animations if not the same. However, Thunder has always made a louder sound. To leave this particular move of Jolteon's undocumented would mean most of the times these three moves and discharge are documented will have to be removed. We must come to an agreement as we always have done.

::Finally, don't take my repeated use of the word "''assume''" as basis for a counter argument, as I'll reiterate that assumptions about moves have been made more than they actually have been confirmed. If you're sticking to the argument where unconfirmed moves should be left undocumented, you have a lot of editing to do because these are only the latest in thousands of instances of a move that has not been named.

:::No assumptions. That's the Bulbapedia rule with ANY content. This is an Ash's Charizard gender debate all over again. We require CONCRETE, undeniable proof of anything around here. Otherwise we're not being professional and accurate. And FYI, Force Fire said on the Forums that he does not watch the anime as actively. --[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 16:40, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

{{indent}}Yes, I do watch the anime, at least the important episodes (captures, gym battles, evolutions). We can only use precedence if the move in questions has a unique animation (like {{m|Vine Whip}} or {{m|Double Team}}, since they have unique animations). Slash shares its animation with other "claw" moves like {{m|Fury Swipes}} or {{m|Cut}}. Leaf Storm and Razor Wind didn't get documented because they could've been {{m|Razor Leaf}} or {{m|Air Cutter}}.

[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:Kenji-girl/Archive_21#Flamethrower_or_Overheat This was the only conversation about Reshiram's] move that I could find, and she didn't even give an answer. Yet, you added it in anyway, so I believe that you ''think'' she gave an answer, but she didn't. As for Power Whip, both Poison Jab and Power Whip have a unique animation in the anime (at least, so far) so that was correct.

Back to the topic, just because we haven't seen a Pokémon use False Swipe doesn't mean that the animators won't make a Pokémon use False Swipe. They can do whatever they want, thus we won't know and we won't assume we know. As for the Eeveelutions, they were fantasized as being used on a Showcase, so it could've been stylized versions of Flamethrower (Flareon), Thunderbolt (Jolteon), Random Water move that isn't really clear on what it was (Vaporeon) and Icicle Spear (Glaceon), may seem like a stretch, but still... showcase fantasy.

As for the other assumed moves, those were from a time before we had the "don't assume" rule. Whether we'll go through them, I don't know. May's Venusaur had to evolve because it's known that she had a Bulbasaur. It's not like Paul's Weavile where we don't know if he caught it as a Sneasel. You Pikachu example doesn't hold water as it's always been called Thunderbolt in both the Japanese and the English dub. Thunder having a "louder" sound doesn't amount to anything.

Again the assumed move of the past were from before we had the "don't assume" rule. And whether we'll go through them is up in the air.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:28, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
:In regards to Reshiram's Flamethrower, I remembered that incorrectly, so it should be disregarded. However my point about, May's Venasaur is that we assumed it had evolved from Bulbasaur, this was never stated (see Lenora's Herdier for a similar argument that went the other way on the whim of an admin) and Pikachu's Thunderbolt, I meant an error with the Japanese script (see Roxanne's Nosepass) but I'm obviously not arguing those things, they are just examples of pedantic arguments akin to your own. (Pedantic means "excessively concerned with rules and minor details to the point you become difficult) It would be like saying Brock's Onix didn't evolve into Steelix, Forrest could have lied and the Steelix Brock reunites with is just an actor hired to cover up the fact Onix is dead at the bottom of the ocean. We never actually saw that Onix evolve, now did we?

:This mythical "we don't assume" rule, only seems to have come into effect during XY071 and was lifted right up until XY089, though it still seemed to fluctuate relevance during the episode.

:I think you are arguing black is white. I think your just saying "I am an admin and I'm right no matter what", which you'll probably get away with here but that's not gonna do you much good in the real world. [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 11:21, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
::Original Japanese dub trumps all, that's why we don't count Herdier and Lillipup as one. Pokémon is a different case to the moves. We base the Pokémon on what we know, we know May had a Bulbasaur, so when it reappeared as a Venusaur under her command, we put two and two together. Moves are different, unless the move has a unique animation (like Double Team or Vine Whip), we cannot put two and two together because some (if not, a majority of) moves share the same animation.
::The "don't assume" rule is more like a common sense thing. If we don't know what something is, don't guess. Wait until it gets revealed or just leave it be. It's like the VAs, we don't guess or play by ear, we go to the VAs themselves and ask.
::Just so you are aware, I have spoken to Kogoro about the matter (I asked that we don't assume moves unless said move has a unique animation) and her response was "pretty much". I am not abusing my powers, I am just going by what I know from past experience, how we usually do things here and what my fellow admins and higher ups say.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 13:40, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
:::As far as Fire Spin, Ice Shard and Aqua Jet go, we do know what they are, the only one to have a problem with this was the original user to revert the edits, if he hadn't said anything you'd have no doubt those moves were Fire Spin, Ice Shard and Aqua Jet. Slash is something we can deduce from this "common sense thing" you so patronisingly mentioned.

:::And it seems I remember the Herdier situation a bit better, i'm aware that Japanese dub trumps all. The original made no mention of Herdier having evolved from lillipup the same way it did not mention Venasaur (or indeed Drew and Nando's Roserade) but "two and two" weren't put together then. You can see why I think most admins here choose whichever rules they want to follow as and when they feel like it.

:::I'm sure you did a great job explaining to kongoro why you think your right.

:::Can I ask why Fire Spin and the others are being denied but Razor Leaf and Fairy Wind from the same episode are okay?

:::Be honest now, PlayerKing is only a regular user on here, but he holds some kind of seniority on the forums. That's the staff bias. Furthermore Pikablu is a fairly new user so it's easy to assume he's wrong, perhaps a trouble maker for arguing the case. Then comes along a long time user with a sound argument that you cannot really deny (the only points you've addressed were The Reshiram situation, which I remembered wrong though it still does not deter my case, and my hypotheticals about Venasaur and Pikachu which you either don't fully understand or your just looking for something to argue with) and you as the "senior admin" can't admit you may be wrong. These five moves are literally the only ones that aren't noted down because they haven't been named on screen, while every other time this happened the move was deduced through common sense [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 10:54, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
::::If the moves weren't fantasized about being used in an event that involves showing off a Pokémon (i.e. Showcase), then maybe. But since it was fantasized as being used in an event that involves showing off a Pokémon (i.e. Showcase), there's the ambiguity of whether it's a stylized version of another move (because again, showing off a Pokémon).
::::I've always assumed that we did what we did with Venusaur (and Roserade) because of common sense. We know they had a Bulbasaur and Roselia at one point, so when they reappeared in their evolved form, we put two and two together. Those were done before I was an admin I believe, so if you to ask why they were given the okay, go ask Kenji-Girl.
::::And that's literally all I said to Kogoro, I literally asked if we don't assume moves unless said move has a unique combination and she replied with "Pretty much". I didn't parade that I was right, I just asked a straightforward question and got a straightforward response.
::::As for Razor Leaf and Fairy Wind, they most likely just slipped by.
::::Just because Playerking was the one that started it, doesn't mean we are biased. He was just following the common sense rule of "no assuming". I've already gave reasons against your examples. We know May had a Bulbasaur, it reappears as a Venusaur, common sense. Pikachu's Thunderbolt has always been called out as Thunderbolt in both the original and the dub. As for all the other moves that were assumed and whether we remove them, take that up to the Editorial Board as that would be a major change.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 13:22, 27 October 2015 (UTC)

== Psychic move ==

I have my doubts but didn't Olympia's Meowstic use Psychic in XY091[[User:Harryghost|Harryghost]] ([[User talk:Harryghost|talk]]) 15:50, 29 October 2015 (UTC)

== A Festival Farewell (?/!) ==

The English name of XY081is A Festival Trade! A Festival Farewell! as revealed in the title card. Shouldn't necessary changes be made on Bulbapedia? Also Bunnelby was hit by Shadow Ball in XY081, shouldn't that be included in the error section.[[User:Harryghost|Harryghost]] ([[User talk:Harryghost|talk]]) 15:08, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
:The way the title was said implies that it was meant to be a question mark and that what was shown in the title card was an error. And it is not proven in the anime that Normal type are immune to Ghost types.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 15:20, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

== Chespie ==

Can I ask why you undid the edit on [[SS035]] for Mairin's Chespie? She nicknamed her Chespin, so why refer to it by its species' name instead of its nickname? --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 17:45, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
:When referring to the Pokémon as "Trainer's X", we use the species name not its nickname.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:10, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

== Still confused ==

I kind of understand the first part of your reply on XY081 title card. But is the proof, you are suggesting in second part, something like 'someone stating in the anime that Ghost type moves do no good on Normal-types?'[[User:Harryghost|Harryghost]] ([[User talk:Harryghost|talk]]) 17:57, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
:It is not proven in the anime that Ghost type moves have no effect on Normal type Pokémon. That's pretty simple to understand--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:10, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

== [[Staff of Pokémon Snap]] ==

I have a couple questions/concerns regarding [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Staff_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_Snap&diff=prev&oldid=2349590 a recent edit] to the [[Staff of Pokémon Snap]] page. First and foremost: {{u|Technickal}} added "Tara Jayne as Bulbasaur (uncredited)", and I know Technickal has had issues with sourcing before, so perhaps someone had better double check that this addition actually measures up to Bulbapedia's standards? (On the other hand, it also [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJtEjrNmTR4&t=1m25s looks like] Rachael Lillis and "Madeleine"/Maddie Blaustein aren't in the actual (English?) end credits either, so...I guess either those also don't belong or they're all OK? Or maybe those were confirmed adequately somewhere?)

Of lesser concern, I'm also kind of wondering if the addition of "as Professor Oak" and "as Todd Snap" and all that is okay? Basically, I'm half under the impression it's supposed to be like a duplicate of the end credits, so maybe that's not quite appropriate. Or maybe it's not appropriate for some other reason, I don't know. (This one also applies to the [[Staff of Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]] page.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:25, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
:Yeah, that's just playing by ear. I've reverted the edits. As for the "As X", I'm not sure as well as I don't recall there being a page with the credits formatted like that (it's uusally done in a table, as you know), I've reverted it for the mean time.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 02:50, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

'''Hazel''' (Japanese: '''マロン''' ''Marron'') is the main character of the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[Magical Pokémon Journey]]. She is on a quest to capture Pokémon for [[Grandpa]] so that he will make her a love potion to give to [[Almond]], who she has [[SeasonShipping|a crush on]].

==Character==
Hazel is an energetic, caring girl who makes friends with Pokémon easily. Though she has not actually captured any Pokémon, she has befriended and owned three Pokémon - {{MPJ|Pikachu}}, {{MPJ|Clefairy}}, and a {{MPJ|Jigglypuff}}. She likes to help others, such as in ''[[PPP12|Even an Arbok Falls in Love!]]'', where she leads the others in helping {{MPJ|Arbok}} get together with {{MPJ|Wigglytuff}}.

Her family is never shown on-page, however, she does mention her parents and an unnamed cousin in ''[[PPPB04|Excitement at the Hot Springs?!]]''.

Hazel owns a magical suit made by Grandpa which protects her from all sorts of harm, from electric shock to drowning, but often forgets to wear it.

One of her hobbies is drawing, but she is not very skilled at it and the other characters often make fun of her for her unintelligible pictures.

==History==
{{incomplete|section}}
[[File:Hazel and Coconut.png|thumb|left|Hazel and Coconut]]
Hazel has known Almond since childhood; at first, she was a rambunctious tomboy who often teased and bullied him. She is determined to get together with him, and competes with [[Coconut]] for his affection. While Almond at first seems indifferent to her feelings, Hazel continues to pursue him, often following him around or stalking him. She is constantly trying to win him over, giving him many gifts such as chocolates in ''[[PPP09|Eevee... Pokémon Genius!]]'' and a Valentine's Day heart in ''[[PPPB05|Valentine Heartbeats]]''.

At the end of the manga, Almond falls for her without the help of a love potion and they become a couple. Hazel does not appear in [[Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪]], the sequel to Magical Pokémon Journey set in the same world, though some of the Pokémon she has befriended do appear as returning characters.

'''Hazel''' (Japanese: '''マロン''' ''Marron'') is the main character of the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[Magical Pokémon Journey]]. She is on a quest to capture Pokémon for [[Grandpa]] so that he will make her a love potion to give to [[Almond]], who she has [[SeasonShipping|a crush on]].

==Character==
Hazel is an energetic, caring girl who makes friends with Pokémon easily. Though she has not actually captured any Pokémon, she has befriended three Pokémon - {{MPJ|Pikachu}}, {{MPJ|Clefairy}}, and a {{MPJ|Jigglypuff}}. She likes to help others, such as in ''[[PPP12|Even an Arbok Falls in Love!]]'', where she leads the others in helping {{MPJ|Arbok}} get together with {{MPJ|Wigglytuff}}.

Her family is never shown on-page, however, she does mention her parents and an unnamed cousin in ''[[PPPB04|Excitement at the Hot Springs?!]]''.

Hazel owns a magical suit made by Grandpa which protects her from all sorts of harm, from electric shock to drowning, but often forgets to wear it.

One of her hobbies is drawing, but she is not very skilled at it and the other characters often make fun of her for her unintelligible pictures.

==History==
{{incomplete|section}}
[[File:Hazel and Coconut.png|thumb|left|Hazel and Coconut]]
Hazel has known Almond since childhood; at first, she was a rambunctious tomboy who often teased and bullied him. She is determined to get together with him, and competes with [[Coconut]] for his affection. While Almond at first seems indifferent to her feelings, Hazel continues to pursue him, often following him around or stalking him. She is constantly trying to win him over, giving him many gifts such as chocolates in ''[[PPP09|Eevee... Pokémon Genius!]]'' and a Valentine's Day heart in ''[[PPPB05|Valentine Heartbeats]]''.

At the end of the manga, Almond falls for her without the help of a love potion and they become a couple. Hazel does not appear in [[Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪]], the sequel to Magical Pokémon Journey set in the same world, though some of the Pokémon she has befriended do appear as returning characters.

Talk:Ryouga

2015-11-01T05:13:58Z

CoffeeMilkshakes:

==Lightning Pāvu==
Judging from its kanji and its reading, I think 完波 is supposed to mean "perfect wave", since the the katakana パーヴ is most likely a combination of パーフェクト (perfect) and ウェーヴ (wave). As weird as the combination is, should we romanize パーヴ as "perve"? "parve" (since ''perve'' sounds like pervert)? or just write it as "perfect wave"? --'''神電の[[User:神奇超龍|超龍]]「'''[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]'''」''' 10:38, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

== Ryouga vs Ryōga ==

Wouldn't it be more logical to use "Ryōga" instead of "Ryouga"?
Also since we're going with "Garyū", here on Bulbapedia.
It'd be a bit of effort, to change all instances of "Ryouga" to "Ryōga", yes.
But I'll help. I just first want to know if others agree.
I don't want to make a bunch of changes, for them then to be undone. xD

CoffeeMilkshakes: /* Is this looking too much into it? */

==Leaf==
So who made up that name? --[[User:Nyoo|nYoo]] 17:22, 2 February 2006 (CST)

:I want to know that too. Following the trend that the 1st and 2nd gen games set, her name should be Green, or Blue in the Japanese version. I'm guessing someone just chose one of the optional names from FRLG and gave it to her when they made the article. There's no real basis for her name being "Leaf", so shouldn't we go by precedence, as was done with Gold, Silver and Kris, and just call her Green?. -Shaddow Boy

::For an English Language Version, Green is accurate, however [[Green (game)]] already directs to Blue, does it not?--[[User:PikamasterADV|PikamasterADV]] 00:50, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

:Internal game data. There is a trainer, presumably used for debugging, with the sprite of the male player, and another trainer with the sprite of the female player. The male one is named Red, but the female is named Leaf for some strange reason. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 09:38, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
::English version or Japanese? --WikidSmaht 08:41, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
:::Both. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:53, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
::::This isn't really a good habit to get into. If we start taking unused data as official canon, then Professor Oak started with Squirtle, the Safari Zone had no Pokemon in it 3 years after Red and Blue, and that the Lake of Rage is still a town. It just doesn't make sense. Fire Red and Leaf Green have officially fixed Green's (male rival's), name to that of the original, leaving lone Blue, the third version gal, without a truly official name. While logic would suggest we should call her Blue due to the Manga as well as Blue being the color generation's third game, we are stuck basing her name on what can only be called speculation. Unused Data =/= Fact. [[User:Fishman|Fishman]] 15:43, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::Er, no. When it comes to the games' canon, internal game data > manga name. Otherwise we should be calling Brendan "Ruby" and May "Sapphire".
:::::And no offense, but your analogies are the ones that don't make sense to me. The prototypical Safari Zone in GSC doens't have wild Pokémon because the wild encounters data was never written, not because it was originally meant to not have Pokémon. And the finished versions of the games retconned Profesor Oak into not being a fight-able trainer, and the Lake of Rage into being just a lake are, not a town. But neither the finished games not Nintendo officially revealed a name for the FR/LG female protagonist, so if her name during the development stages was Leaf (which in-game data seems to prove it was), then it should still be, since there isn't evidence to make us believe that it was retconned into another name. [[User:Spideym|Spideym]] 00:03, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Well we can't call her Blue, because [[Blue (game)]] is the rival. [[User:Zurqoxn|Zurqoxn]] 01:13, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
:If only GSDS would become reality, we'd know for sure, since then we'd have to find out what happened to her as well as Red. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 09:33, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
::We don't need another sequel. Besides her name, the answers are right here in front of us. The [[Blue (game)]] has officially been renamed as Green. All we have to do with the old article is point out that his English name used to be Blue, and was later changed back into Green. [[User:Fishman|Fishman]] 01:45, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
:::No, it has not been officially renamed. The rival's first default name for the Red version does not qualify as the character's official name. For all we know, his name could still be "Blue," just because it's not a default name doesn't mean it's been officially changed. Taking evidence from all the games supports that the rival is Blue and the girl is unnamed (leaving us with Green), but the idea that Blue has become Green is just fan speculation. I also agree that we can't go taking in-game data as official, and believe the name of the girl should be Green until Nintendo proves otherwise.--[[User:Mezase Master|Mezase Master]]
::::No to you, Mezase Master. First of all, you'll give the reason to most of us when we claim that Blue, this is, Japanese Green, is now Green outside of Japan as well since FRLG. Why do I say this? Because of HGSS and in-game data. And if internal game data says that her name is Leaf in both Japanese and English versions, then we have to assume it is as such. It's like you're claiming that Nintendo, specially the American and European divisions, don't screw up on the manuals and stuff. Even if such material is official, it doesn't mean it's correct and in-game data is the superior form of canon in the Pokémon franchise, so I say you're wrong. [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 11:56, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
:::::BTW, I e-mailed Nintendo of America back in late 2008 and asked them what was the official name of the female player character in FRLG. They told me that there isn't any and that players can name characters as they pretend (we all know that happens in every game except the rival in RSE), so we only have in-game data left. And if in-game data says that the name is Leaf, it's because it is. [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 12:23, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Her name can't be "Green" because is the rival's name in the games already [[User:Haruka uzumaki|Haruka uzumaki]] 16:06, 24 September 2007

It doesn't show her face, unfortunately. [[User:GigaMetroid99|GigaMetroid99]] 02:43, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

::I was just wondering if that was the picture that the article described with:

''Leaf was supposed to be in the original Red and Green versions, due to the fact that on Nintendo's Official guidebook, it depicted a female trainer with long brown hair, a black dress, white gloves and short black boots, alongside the male protagonist and the rival. It is believed she was supposed to be in the game, but was left out for some reason.''

If that's the right image, it should be added to the article to show viewers how she would have looked.[[User:GigaMetroid99|GigaMetroid99]] 01:41, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

== Rival = Blue? or Green? HGSS ==

Well, being that the rival's name also complicates things, as TTEchidna said, if the Viridian City gym leader in Pokemon HeartGold & SoulSilver is Leader (or Gym Leader) Blue, then it's back to the drawing board, but if he's Leader (or Gym Leader) Green, the name of the female player character of FireRed & LeafGreen may very well be Blue then. {{unsigned|Team Snagem Jarrod}}
:Her name will be Leaf regardless. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 02:25, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Wouldn't the situation change if she appears in HG/SS under a different name? [[User:Tsum|Tsum]] 04:44, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
:It might but I think if the English translation calls the Viridian Leader "Green" to go with FireRed and Leaf''Green'', and has Red still in Mt. Silver, then this girl being Blue would confuse people due to Green being Blue in Gen II because before it was Red and ''Blue''. Leaf fits her best of all, unless they were to go a completely odd route and go with actual given names, in which case I'd bet that Red would be Satoshi in Japan and Ash here, Green is Shigeru/Gary, and Leafy-poo is Ashley.

Wouldn't Soul count? Also,what about Mark,Mint,Wes,Michael,Lucy,Kate, and Lunick? Or do it just refer to the main games. Even so,what about Soul? Or is it still up for grabs that she is just a redesign of Kris,and not a seperate character? [[User:Lovely Rose|Lovely Rose]] 03:39, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
:Soul's game hasn't even been released. Of course she hasn't appeared in the anime yet.

== Why Leaf and not Green? ==

Okay, honestly, this makes no sense. I understand that you're taking the internal data as evidence, but internal data shouldn't always be taken as canon. If we named every character based on the internal data, then Blue would be called Terry, and Barry would be called Cedric, among others. Their internal files are called that for whatever reason, but that doesn't mean that it should be their official name. I understand that your reasoning for using the internal data to support the name "Leaf" is because she's never officially named in game, unlike Red, Blue, Ethan, Lyra, Brendan, May, Lucas, Dawn, etc., but there [i]is[/i] evidence outside of game canon that supports the name "Green". Yes, most of the time you shouldn't take media outside of game canon as evidence, but that's exactly what you did when you decided to name the DPPt Rival "Barry", isn't it? And why did you do that? Because it was the most logical choice. The name "Barry" is present in the games as one of the preset names, and it's also supported in other media, media which also uses the canon name of Dawn, so it can be assumed that the name they're using for Barry is the intended canon name for him. Leaf's situation is no different. She's already been named "Green" in the manga (that is, in the English version, since the names of Blue and Green are swapped in Japan, but since this is an English wiki we use the English names), and it fits the Red/Blue/Green naming pattern, so why should we completely ignore those facts and instead go with "Leaf"?! It's just not logical. Whatever the verdict is, she'll always be Green to me, and she should be to everyone else, too. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 08:10, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

::::I'm aware that it has been discussed before, but to my knowledge, the only solid evidence to support the name "Leaf" is from internal data.

::::::No, it's not at all like calling Brendan Ruby. Brendan has been officially named in the games, Leaf/Green hasn't. Since we don't have an official name to go by in the games, we should name her based on logic and evidence in other media. Green makes the most sense, and it's backed up by the manga. Leaf doesn't make sense at all. We know that she was planned to be in the Generation I games but never made the cut, so why would we call her Leaf, when the Fire/Leaf thing didn't come until Generation III? And Red isn't called Fire, is he? No, he's called Red, just like Blue is called Blue, and just like how "Leaf" should be called Green. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 20:09, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:::::Red isn't called Fire because he's been named in GSCHGSS. Leaf and the Green from Adventures are different characters, just like Red and Ash are. One's name should not affect the other. [[User:Reign|Reign]] 20:13, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::::::That's a different situation, though. And although Leaf/Green from FireRed/LeafGreen is a different character from the Adventures Green, they're clearly based on each other. Red and Blue have their canon names in Adventures, so why should we assume that Green's name isn't the canon one used? Yes, later characters are named after their versions in the manga, but those are different generations, where the naming scheme has been changed in the games. In Generation one, their names were all colors, so why should Red's female counterpart be any different? Also, you guys are contradicting yourselves. You used the anime's name for Barry because he didn't have an official name in the games, and that's A-OK to you, but when we're talking about Leaf/Green it's wrong? Why is that? You went with Barry because it was the most logical choice, that's why. It's supported by both the games (as one of the random preset names) ''and'' the anime, and the same anime also uses the official name for the character Dawn, so there's really no reason not to trust it. It was the best choice there was, so you used it. And Green is the best choice for the name of the female protagonist of FireRed/LeafGreen, and planned female protagonist of Generation I, so why aren't we using it? —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 20:24, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

:::::::::As much as I'm inclined to disagree with his choice in naming, I believe he is acting in his rights to call the name into question. No one likes to edit a wiki that has draconian admins, after all. However, I believe he's failed to produce the evidence that's required: What is there, ingame, that says her name should be Green? Nothing, as far as I can tell. Barry at least had it as a default name in two games (Barry [the name] was in Platinum, right?). Leaf's absence from Pokémon Canon makes Leaf her only logical name.--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 20:53, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::::::::::You talk as if Leaf/Green didn't have "Green" as an option for her name in her games, either. She did, just as is the case with Barry. But Barry's not the ''only'' default name he's given. It's just one among many. So what made Bulbapedia decide to call him Barry? The fact that the anime also calls him that. And the ''same exact situation'' can apply to Leaf/Green. Like Barry, she's never officially named in game, except for the list of default names, of which includes the name "Green". But she's also named Green outside of game canon, just like Barry was named for that exact same reason, so that's what we should call her. If somebody didn't decide to give her the name Leaf (yes, I know that it was based on internal data, but I've already given reasons as to why that can't be taken as an official name) and name this article so, then people would be calling her Green, the most logical choice. It's Bulbapedia's fault that her name is widely accepted as "Leaf" now, just like it was Bulbapedia's fault that so many people started calling the DPPt Rival "Pearl". You have to understand that what you say here greatly affects the entire Pokémon community, so it's very easy for false information to be taken as fact. Now, I'm not saying that it's a ''fact'' that Red's female counterpart is named Green, but there's much more evidence that supports it as opposed to calling her Leaf, and it's just more logical. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 21:09, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:(Gogo Indent Reset) Responding to each claim in order: But you see, it doesn't matter that Green is also an option because we could just as easily substitute in any of her other default names and argue it on that case. Green is only a default if you're playing LeafGreen; for FireRed, she'd just as well be called Fire. As far as Barry is concerned, the name is not only in Diamond, but also Platinum, which gives that name the ingame edge it needs over Clint, the top default name from Pearl. Your arguments that she is Green outside the game canon are pointless because she doesn't exist in any other canon; "Green" from Pokemon Adventures was established long before FireRed and LeafGreen were announced, and is thus an entirely separate character (if the separate wiki articles didn't already clue you in). Barry is named such because it is his default name in Platinum, giving Barry a 2-to-1 bias over Clint, and a 2-0 over Pearl. Leaf has no such out; in FR, she can be called Red or Fire, and in LG she can be called Leaf or Green. Any name is just as likely as the others (except Red, obviously). The ingame data in this case acts as final arbiter: it could have been literally any name and it would have won out (due to being present in both FireRed AND LeafGreen). I still don't see how Green is any more likely than Leaf; Leaf has a spot on the default names list AND the ingame data, where Green only has the default names list. You aren't providing the evidence you need. Probably because it doesn't exist.--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 21:24, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::You're completely ignoring the fact that the character Leaf/Green has existed since Generation I. Not as a playable character, but in official artwork, and we know she was intended to be in the games, but just never made the cut. With that in mind, why would you go with the name "Leaf", which makes no sense, considering that the terms Fire and Leaf hadn't been introduced until Generation III? And I know that she's not the same exact character as the Green in the manga canon-wise, but it's clear as day that the two ''are'' the same character, just in different canon. Since her counterpart and rival have kept their color names throughout the generations, why should her name be an element and not a color? You can through game data at me all you want (by the way, where is your proof that the name "Green" only appears in LeafGreen, but "Leaf" appears in both?), but it just doesn't make sense. Since we no official name for her, have to think about what the developers' intent is. Do you think that they would call her Leaf, or the more logical choice, Green? It would appear that "Green" is the intended name, since it's used in the Adventures manga (which is the closest media to the game canon other than the games themselves), and it fits the color naming scheme. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 21:54, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:::The flaw with your first point is if we go by that logic {{p|Shellos}} would be a Generation III Pokémon. If the character wasn't present in the games, no amount of intention is going to put them there. That puts your question to rest as well; Leaf because the Character didn't exist in Generation I. Saying it's clear as day means nothing; you're talking about 'the manga' like it's somehow more infallible than the games themselves (I must have skipped over the part of the game where my PC was kidnapped by Ho-Oh and spent several years in Johto). As for proof that Leaf is in both games, Leaf is the dummied out name for the character in both games (similar that Red is the default in both games for the dummied out character that had his face, as well as whatever the weird name that Blue had in FRLG). In the naming screen, the opposite game's name is '''never''' an option; You don't start up Red and see Blue as the default name for your character. So it would be reasonable to assume that neither Leaf nor Green are options for the default names in FireRed. Thus there are two separate instances of Leaf (ingame default name and the dummied out trainer with her sprite) and only one instance of Green (the ingame default name). Finally, you have yet to show any proof that Green is more suited than Leaf. Manga-based arguments are irrelevant, as they aren't the same character (even if their bases are the same).--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 22:13, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

:Since it wouldn't let me post for some reason earlier today, I didn't get to post my reply to [[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]]. I'll go ahead and post what I tried to post earlier today but couldn't.

:Even if she wasn't physically present in the Generation I games, if she was, she would've been named Green, not Leaf. Since Red isn't renamed Fire and Blue isn't renamed Water in Generation III, why should we call her Leaf, instead of sticking with colors? And you're confusing me about the default name ''Leaf'''s presence in the games. At first you said that Green is only present in LeafGreen, but Leaf is present in both versions. Now you turn around and say that both Green ''and'' Leaf are only present in LeafGreen. Which is it? If the latter is true, then Green has just as much in game support as Leaf does, excluding unseen dummy files in the game data. You even brought up the fact that Blue's name in the game data is strange, not being Green like it should be (since that's his Japanese name). If we can't trust the internal data for Blue's name, then why should we trust it for Leaf/Green's name? With that said, if you exclude the internal data that can't be taken as fact and media outside of the games, then both names, Green ''and'' Leaf, have the same amount of supporting evidence for them (that is, assuming your first comment about the name Leaf being present in FireRed wasn't true, as you later suggested). They're tied, 1-1. So you have a choice to make. Should you go with the name that's present in placeholder data in the game (which can't be trusted, as shown by Blue's placeholder data), or should you go with the name that's also used in other media, ''and'' is more logical, fitting the color naming scheme? I think the choice is pretty obvious. Green is the name to go with. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 06:13, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
::Because she wasn't officially /in/ Gen I can she be inclusive to it. She existed as art and an idea that wouldn't come to fruition until Kris: a heroine choice. She may have "exist", but she is not a canon character until Gen III. This being her official debut, she has nothing to go on but these two games. She cannot be called Green, since FireRed is the Alpha game, making the "Green" character the rival (in essence). But seeing as there is no third game to possibly pawn her off on, the last bit is to chop the title in half, one name for the rival, and one name for the girl. Because the rival isn't officially 'Blue' by Gen III standards, since no Blue game exists in Gen III. Yes, he ''is'' Blue, in every English Gen that ''isn't'' the third. And since he's not Blue, but "Green," she, as a Gen III character, cannot be "Green". Hence. As she is a Gen III character only (so far), she cannot be named by the standards of Gen IV, only her own generation. If she had made an appearance in Gen IV...only ''then'' could her name be argued beyond the scope of her limited exposure.

Emoguy was given no clear name in HG/SS, so I can understand why we still call him Silver, since Ethan was previously known as Gold, but ANYWAYS, each name in the trio has to be consistent. Logically, what makes more sense: Red, Leaf, and Blue? Or Red, Green, and Blue? If it's that hard to notice people, '''the Kanto trio are named after colors''' Notice how "Leaf" is not a color. Just saying. EDIT: bah, screw it, who cares, it's just a name, afterall, Kris wasn't named Crystal. Leaf ftw! [[User:Chaos Rush|Chaos Rush]] 16:17, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

== Fuguri ==

Do you know that it means "testicles" in Japanese? Whoever calls her that, he's probably NOT serious about this name. And this makes this not trivia-worthy. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 14:27, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

:Kay, so some kind anons on 2ch were able to clear up for me the true origins behind the name "Fuguri." Here's the answer that I ultimately received.
::''The very first FireRed/LeafGreen thread was titled "FireRed LeafGreen" (ファイアレッドリーフグリーン) without the &.''
::''Because of that, people responded with, "FireRedLee & Fugurin (ファイアレッドリー＆フグリーン)? What an obscene title!"''
::''I have a feeling that's how the "Fuguri" thing started.''
::''Incidentally, the male protagonist was also called "Red Lee." Though now the names "Remake Red" and "Leaf" have permeated [the fandom].''
:So yes, while it started out as a joke because of the word "scrotum," it turned into a legitimate fandom name for her, and people do call her that in all seriousness, without any obscene intentions behind it.

Actually, since The rival is known both as Blue and Green, It is safer to call her leaf.

So who made up that name? --[[User:Nyoo|nYoo]] 17:22, 2 February 2006 (CST)

:I want to know that too. Following the trend that the 1st and 2nd gen games set, her name should be Green, or Blue in the Japanese version. I'm guessing someone just chose one of the optional names from FRLG and gave it to her when they made the article. There's no real basis for her name being "Leaf", so shouldn't we go by precedence, as was done with Gold, Silver and Kris, and just call her Green?. -Shaddow Boy

If we start taking unused data as official canon, then Professor Oak started with Squirtle, the Safari Zone had no Pokemon in it 3 years after Red and Blue, and that the Lake of Rage is still a town. It just doesn't make sense. Fire Red and Leaf Green have officially fixed Green's (male rival's), name to that of the original, leaving lone Blue, the third version gal, without a truly official name. While logic would suggest we should call her Blue due to the Manga as well as Blue being the color generation's third game, we are stuck basing her name on what can only be called speculation. Unused Data =/= Fact. [[User:Fishman|Fishman]] 15:43, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::Er, no. When it comes to the games' canon, internal game data > manga name. Otherwise we should be calling Brendan "Ruby" and May "Sapphire".
:::::And no offense, but your analogies are the ones that don't make sense to me. The prototypical Safari Zone in GSC doens't have wild Pokémon because the wild encounters data was never written, not because it was originally meant to not have Pokémon. And the finished versions of the games retconned Profesor Oak into not being a fight-able trainer, and the Lake of Rage into being just a lake are, not a town. But neither the finished games not Nintendo officially revealed a name for the FR/LG female protagonist, so if her name during the development stages was Leaf (which in-game data seems to prove it was), then it should still be, since there isn't evidence to make us believe that it was retconned into another name. [[User:Spideym|Spideym]] 00:03, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

:::No, it has not been officially renamed. The rival's first default name for the Red version does not qualify as the character's official name. For all we know, his name could still be "Blue," just because it's not a default name doesn't mean it's been officially changed. Taking evidence from all the games supports that the rival is Blue and the girl is unnamed (leaving us with Green), but the idea that Blue has become Green is just fan speculation. I also agree that we can't go taking in-game data as official, and believe the name of the girl should be Green until Nintendo proves otherwise.--[[User:Mezase Master|Mezase Master]]
::::No to you, Mezase Master. First of all, you'll give the reason to most of us when we claim that Blue, this is, Japanese Green, is now Green outside of Japan as well since FRLG. Why do I say this? Because of HGSS and in-game data. And if internal game data says that her name is Leaf in both Japanese and English versions, then we have to assume it is as such. It's like you're claiming that Nintendo, specially the American and European divisions, don't screw up on the manuals and stuff. Even if such material is official, it doesn't mean it's correct and in-game data is the superior form of canon in the Pokémon franchise, so I say you're wrong.

Well, being that the rival's name also complicates things, as TTEchidna said, if the Viridian City gym leader in Pokemon HeartGold & SoulSilver is Leader (or Gym Leader) Blue, then it's back to the drawing board, but if he's Leader (or Gym Leader) Green, the name of the female player character of FireRed & LeafGreen may very well be Blue then. {{unsigned|Team Snagem Jarrod}}

Leaf fits her best of all, unless they were to go a completely odd route and go with actual given names, in which case I'd bet that Red would be Satoshi in Japan and Ash here, Green is Shigeru/Gary, and Leafy-poo is Ashley.

== Why Leaf and not Green? ==

Okay, honestly, this makes no sense. I understand that you're taking the internal data as evidence, but internal data shouldn't always be taken as canon. If we named every character based on the internal data, then Blue would be called Terry, and Barry would be called Cedric, among others. Their internal files are called that for whatever reason, but that doesn't mean that it should be their official name. I understand that your reasoning for using the internal data to support the name "Leaf" is because she's never officially named in game, unlike Red, Blue, Ethan, Lyra, Brendan, May, Lucas, Dawn, etc., but there [i]is[/i] evidence outside of game canon that supports the name "Green". Yes, most of the time you shouldn't take media outside of game canon as evidence, but that's exactly what you did when you decided to name the DPPt Rival "Barry", isn't it? And why did you do that? Because it was the most logical choice. The name "Barry" is present in the games as one of the preset names, and it's also supported in other media, media which also uses the canon name of Dawn, so it can be assumed that the name they're using for Barry is the intended canon name for him. Leaf's situation is no different. She's already been named "Green" in the manga (that is, in the English version, since the names of Blue and Green are swapped in Japan, but since this is an English wiki we use the English names), and it fits the Red/Blue/Green naming pattern, so why should we completely ignore those facts and instead go with "Leaf"?! It's just not logical. Whatever the verdict is, she'll always be Green to me, and she should be to everyone else, too. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 08:10, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

::::I'm aware that it has been discussed before, but to my knowledge, the only solid evidence to support the name "Leaf" is from internal data. And like I said in my first post, there are so many things wrong with taking the internal data as an official name, especially when there's a much more logical name. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 19:33, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:::::This is like saying Brendan should be named Ruby. Leaf is what she's known as, that's the end of it. Nothing is stopping ''you'' from calling her Green, but that doesn't make it her real name. [[User:Reign|Reign]] 19:51, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::::::No, it's not at all like calling Brendan Ruby. Brendan has been officially named in the games, Leaf/Green hasn't. Since we don't have an official name to go by in the games, we should name her based on logic and evidence in other media. Green makes the most sense, and it's backed up by the manga. Leaf doesn't make sense at all. We know that she was planned to be in the Generation I games but never made the cut, so why would we call her Leaf, when the Fire/Leaf thing didn't come until Generation III? And Red isn't called Fire, is he? No, he's called Red, just like Blue is called Blue, and just like how "Leaf" should be called Green. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 20:09, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:::::Red isn't called Fire because he's been named in GSCHGSS. Leaf and the Green from Adventures are different characters, just like Red and Ash are. One's name should not affect the other. [[User:Reign|Reign]] 20:13, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::::::That's a different situation, though. And although Leaf/Green from FireRed/LeafGreen is a different character from the Adventures Green, they're clearly based on each other. Red and Blue have their canon names in Adventures, so why should we assume that Green's name isn't the canon one used? Yes, later characters are named after their versions in the manga, but those are different generations, where the naming scheme has been changed in the games. In Generation one, their names were all colors, so why should Red's female counterpart be any different? Also, you guys are contradicting yourselves. You used the anime's name for Barry because he didn't have an official name in the games, and that's A-OK to you, but when we're talking about Leaf/Green it's wrong? Why is that? You went with Barry because it was the most logical choice, that's why. It's supported by both the games (as one of the random preset names) ''and'' the anime, and the same anime also uses the official name for the character Dawn, so there's really no reason not to trust it. It was the best choice there was, so you used it. And Green is the best choice for the name of the female protagonist of FireRed/LeafGreen, and planned female protagonist of Generation I, so why aren't we using it? —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 20:24, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

::::::::Sorry, I'd just like to know why he's so set on the name Leaf when Green is the more logical choice. If he's the admin, then he must have approved the change from Pearl to Barry, so why is he sticking with Leaf instead of Green?

:::::::::As much as I'm inclined to disagree with his choice in naming, I believe he is acting in his rights to call the name into question. No one likes to edit a wiki that has draconian admins, after all. However, I believe he's failed to produce the evidence that's required: What is there, ingame, that says her name should be Green? Nothing, as far as I can tell. Barry at least had it as a default name in two games (Barry [the name] was in Platinum, right?). Leaf's absence from Pokémon Canon makes Leaf her only logical name.--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 20:53, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::::::::::You talk as if Leaf/Green didn't have "Green" as an option for her name in her games, either. She did, just as is the case with Barry. But Barry's not the ''only'' default name he's given. It's just one among many. So what made Bulbapedia decide to call him Barry? The fact that the anime also calls him that. And the ''same exact situation'' can apply to Leaf/Green. Like Barry, she's never officially named in game, except for the list of default names, of which includes the name "Green". But she's also named Green outside of game canon, just like Barry was named for that exact same reason, so that's what we should call her. If somebody didn't decide to give her the name Leaf (yes, I know that it was based on internal data, but I've already given reasons as to why that can't be taken as an official name) and name this article so, then people would be calling her Green, the most logical choice. It's Bulbapedia's fault that her name is widely accepted as "Leaf" now, just like it was Bulbapedia's fault that so many people started calling the DPPt Rival "Pearl". You have to understand that what you say here greatly affects the entire Pokémon community, so it's very easy for false information to be taken as fact. Now, I'm not saying that it's a ''fact'' that Red's female counterpart is named Green, but there's much more evidence that supports it as opposed to calling her Leaf, and it's just more logical. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 21:09, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:(Gogo Indent Reset) Responding to each claim in order: But you see, it doesn't matter that Green is also an option because we could just as easily substitute in any of her other default names and argue it on that case. Green is only a default if you're playing LeafGreen; for FireRed, she'd just as well be called Fire. As far as Barry is concerned, the name is not only in Diamond, but also Platinum, which gives that name the ingame edge it needs over Clint, the top default name from Pearl. Your arguments that she is Green outside the game canon are pointless because she doesn't exist in any other canon; "Green" from Pokemon Adventures was established long before FireRed and LeafGreen were announced, and is thus an entirely separate character (if the separate wiki articles didn't already clue you in). Barry is named such because it is his default name in Platinum, giving Barry a 2-to-1 bias over Clint, and a 2-0 over Pearl. Leaf has no such out; in FR, she can be called Red or Fire, and in LG she can be called Leaf or Green. Any name is just as likely as the others (except Red, obviously). The ingame data in this case acts as final arbiter: it could have been literally any name and it would have won out (due to being present in both FireRed AND LeafGreen). I still don't see how Green is any more likely than Leaf; Leaf has a spot on the default names list AND the ingame data, where Green only has the default names list. You aren't providing the evidence you need. Probably because it doesn't exist.--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 21:24, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::You're completely ignoring the fact that the character Leaf/Green has existed since Generation I. Not as a playable character, but in official artwork, and we know she was intended to be in the games, but just never made the cut. With that in mind, why would you go with the name "Leaf", which makes no sense, considering that the terms Fire and Leaf hadn't been introduced until Generation III? And I know that she's not the same exact character as the Green in the manga canon-wise, but it's clear as day that the two ''are'' the same character, just in different canon. Since her counterpart and rival have kept their color names throughout the generations, why should her name be an element and not a color? You can through game data at me all you want (by the way, where is your proof that the name "Green" only appears in LeafGreen, but "Leaf" appears in both?), but it just doesn't make sense. Since we no official name for her, have to think about what the developers' intent is. Do you think that they would call her Leaf, or the more logical choice, Green? It would appear that "Green" is the intended name, since it's used in the Adventures manga (which is the closest media to the game canon other than the games themselves), and it fits the color naming scheme. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 21:54, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:::The flaw with your first point is if we go by that logic {{p|Shellos}} would be a Generation III Pokémon. If the character wasn't present in the games, no amount of intention is going to put them there. That puts your question to rest as well; Leaf because the Character didn't exist in Generation I. Saying it's clear as day means nothing; you're talking about 'the manga' like it's somehow more infallible than the games themselves (I must have skipped over the part of the game where my PC was kidnapped by Ho-Oh and spent several years in Johto). As for proof that Leaf is in both games, Leaf is the dummied out name for the character in both games (similar that Red is the default in both games for the dummied out character that had his face, as well as whatever the weird name that Blue had in FRLG). In the naming screen, the opposite game's name is '''never''' an option; You don't start up Red and see Blue as the default name for your character. So it would be reasonable to assume that neither Leaf nor Green are options for the default names in FireRed. Thus there are two separate instances of Leaf (ingame default name and the dummied out trainer with her sprite) and only one instance of Green (the ingame default name). Finally, you have yet to show any proof that Green is more suited than Leaf. Manga-based arguments are irrelevant, as they aren't the same character (even if their bases are the same).--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 22:13, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::::Just stop arguing pointlessly. People all over call her Leaf. Leaf is the generally excepted name. As for the reason, I don't know.

:Since it wouldn't let me post for some reason earlier today, I didn't get to post my reply to [[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]]. I'll go ahead and post what I tried to post earlier today but couldn't.

:Even if she wasn't physically present in the Generation I games, if she was, she would've been named Green, not Leaf. Since Red isn't renamed Fire and Blue isn't renamed Water in Generation III, why should we call her Leaf, instead of sticking with colors? And you're confusing me about the default name ''Leaf'''s presence in the games. At first you said that Green is only present in LeafGreen, but Leaf is present in both versions. Now you turn around and say that both Green ''and'' Leaf are only present in LeafGreen. Which is it? If the latter is true, then Green has just as much in game support as Leaf does, excluding unseen dummy files in the game data. You even brought up the fact that Blue's name in the game data is strange, not being Green like it should be (since that's his Japanese name). If we can't trust the internal data for Blue's name, then why should we trust it for Leaf/Green's name? With that said, if you exclude the internal data that can't be taken as fact and media outside of the games, then both names, Green ''and'' Leaf, have the same amount of supporting evidence for them (that is, assuming your first comment about the name Leaf being present in FireRed wasn't true, as you later suggested). They're tied, 1-1. So you have a choice to make. Should you go with the name that's present in placeholder data in the game (which can't be trusted, as shown by Blue's placeholder data), or should you go with the name that's also used in other media, ''and'' is more logical, fitting the color naming scheme? I think the choice is pretty obvious. Green is the name to go with. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 06:13, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
::Because she wasn't officially /in/ Gen I can she be inclusive to it. She existed as art and an idea that wouldn't come to fruition until Kris: a heroine choice. She may have "exist", but she is not a canon character until Gen III. This being her official debut, she has nothing to go on but these two games. She cannot be called Green, since FireRed is the Alpha game, making the "Green" character the rival (in essence). But seeing as there is no third game to possibly pawn her off on, the last bit is to chop the title in half, one name for the rival, and one name for the girl. Because the rival isn't officially 'Blue' by Gen III standards, since no Blue game exists in Gen III. Yes, he ''is'' Blue, in every English Gen that ''isn't'' the third. And since he's not Blue, but "Green," she, as a Gen III character, cannot be "Green". Hence. As she is a Gen III character only (so far), she cannot be named by the standards of Gen IV, only her own generation. If she had made an appearance in Gen IV...only ''then'' could her name be argued beyond the scope of her limited exposure.

:::Okay, now ''that'' makes sense. I hadn't thought of it that way. ''Thank you'' for actually providing logical evidence besides placeholder data that can't be trusted or fandom nonsense. If someone would have pointed that out a long time ago, I would've never argued over her name. So, again, I thank you for being the one to provide real, logical, valid evidence as to why she should be called Leaf.

:::: What's wrong with just saying this: Okay, so there's a "trio" from each Generation, correct? And each trio is named either with real names, or with version names. From Hoenn, we have Brendan, May, and Wally. From Sinnoh, we have Lucas, Dawn, and Barry. From Johto, we have Ethan, Lyra, and Emoguy. Anyways, since each "trio" follows a theme, meaning that the names have to be consistent with one another. Emoguy was given no clear name in HG/SS, so I can understand why we still call him Silver, since Ethan was previously known as Gold, but ANYWAYS, each name in the trio has to be consistent. Logically, what makes more sense: Red, Leaf, and Blue? Or Red, Green, and Blue? If it's that hard to notice people, '''the Kanto trio are named after colors''' Notice how "Leaf" is not a color. Just saying. EDIT: bah, screw it, who cares, it's just a name, afterall, Kris wasn't named Crystal. Leaf ftw! [[User:Chaos Rush|Chaos Rush]] 16:17, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

== Fuguri ==

Do you know that it means "testicles" in Japanese? Whoever calls her that, he's probably NOT serious about this name. And this makes this not trivia-worthy. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 14:27, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

:Kay, so some kind anons on 2ch were able to clear up for me the true origins behind the name "Fuguri." Here's the answer that I ultimately received.
::''The very first FireRed/LeafGreen thread was titled "FireRed LeafGreen" (ファイアレッドリーフグリーン) without the &.''
::''Because of that, people responded with, "FireRedLee & Fugurin (ファイアレッドリー＆フグリーン)? What an obscene title!"''
::''I have a feeling that's how the "Fuguri" thing started.''
::''Incidentally, the male protagonist was also called "Red Lee." Though now the names "Remake Red" and "Leaf" have permeated [the fandom].''
:So yes, while it started out as a joke because of the word "scrotum," it turned into a legitimate fandom name for her, and people do call her that in all seriousness, without any obscene intentions behind it.

::I think it's somewhat like the fail pronunciation of Lyra's name as "Coat Own". They see "ko" and know "co", but "tone" doesn't read to them as two syllables, since it's an English word. And no one cares to read up on kana. You'd know someone meant Lyra if they called her Coat Own in a video. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 00:33, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

'''Slowpoke''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヤドン''' ''Yadon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Slowbro}} starting at [[level]] 37 or {{p|Slowking}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}.

==Biology==
Slowpoke is a pink creature that resembles a cross between a salamander and a hippopotamus. Its vacant eyes never seem focused, and it has curled ears and a rounded, tan muzzle. It has four legs, each of which ends in a single white claw. Its long, tapering tail has a white tip. This tail drips a sweet, sappy substance that is attractive to many species of fish. Slowpoke uses it as a lure for fishing, and it will grow back if cut off.

Slowpoke has notoriously dim intellect, and often forgets what it was doing. It takes a long time to respond to outside stimuli. For example, it can take up to five seconds to process pain and can take an entire day to notice when its tail has been bitten. Slowpoke is commonly found at the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|water's edge.}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Slowpoke anime.png|200px|right|thumb|Slowpoke in the anime]]
[[File:Slowpoke Egg.png|thumb|200px|left|A Slowpoke {{pkmn|Egg}} in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Slowpoke's first appearance was a brief one in ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''. {{DL|Ash Ketchum|Pokémon|Ash's Pokémon}} asked it for help, but it didn't respond. It evolved into a Slowbro at the very end of the episode.

Slowpoke's was seen in ''[[EP066|The Evolution Solution]]''. Ash and {{ashfr}} asked for the help of [[Professor Westwood V]] to help figure out why Slowpoke only evolved into Slowbro when a {{p|Shellder}} {{m|clamp}}ed on its tail (a question that was giving {{an|Professor Oak}} a headache). Westwood's Slowpoke evolved when a Shellder that [[Jessie]] caught clamped on to the Dopey Pokémon's tail.

''[[EP142|A Shadow of a Drought]]'' revealed that [[Azalea Town]] considers Slowpoke sacred due to legends claiming that Slowpoke's {{m|yawn}}ing can summon rain.

''[[EP244|Enlighten Up!]]'' introduced practitioners of a religion similar to {{wp|Buddhism}} that see Slowpoke's empty head as a sign of enlightenment and worship by meditating along with Slowpoke and Slowbro.

In ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]'', a group of Slowpoke were trying to reach a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} to evolve into Slowking in order to help find a better habitat for the group. In this episode, a Slowpoke evolved into a {{p|Slowking}} when its head was bitten by a Shellder while it was wearing the King's Rock.

===Minor appearances===
Slowpoke also appeared in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', the banned episode [[EP035]] and ''[[EP062|Clefairy Tales]]''.

A Slowpoke appeared in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.

Multiple Slowpoke were among the Pokémon seen at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]''.

Multiple Slowpoke also appeared in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.

Two Slowpoke were part of an exhibition in ''[[EP122|Flower Power]]''.

A Slowpoke was one of the Pokémon seen at the [[Pokémon Swap Meet]] in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''.

A Slowpoke was one of the Pokémon living in [[Len Town]] in ''[[EP156|The Psychic Sidekicks!]]''.

A {{pkmn|Trainer}} used a Slowpoke in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]'' to aid him in the annual {{p|Seaking}} [[Seaking Catching Day|Catching Competition]].

A Slowpoke appeared in ''[[EP169|Beauty and the Breeder]]'' where it participated in [[Pokémon Beauty Contest|a Pokémon breeding competition]].

A Slowpoke appeared in ''[[EP216|Dueling Heroes]]''.

A Slowpoke appeared in the opening of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''.

A Slowpoke made an appearance in ''[[BW141|Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!]]'' along with its evolution form, {{P|Slowbro}}.

==In the manga==
[[File:Ash Slowpoke.png|thumb|200px|Slowpoke in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]]]
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
{{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} captures a {{pkmn2|giant}} Slowpoke in the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] in ''[[ET19|Ash vs. Gary]]''. He later trades it to [[Gary Oak]] for a photo of his sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. After this, they found out that Slowpoke had evolved into a Slowbro.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Slowpoke debuts in ''[[PS012|Wake Up—You’re Snorlax!]]'' owned by a Swimmer who partook of the bike race along [[Kanto Route 11|Route 11]].

Slowpoke appeared in ''[[PS013|Sigh for Psyduck]]'' as corpses used by [[Koga]]'s {{p|Gastly}}.

A Slowpoke appears under the control of [[Al]] of the Team Rocket Elite Trio in ''[[PS056|The Coming of Slowpoke (Eventually)]]''.

{{tc|Swimmer}} Akinori lent his Slowpoke to {{adv|Yellow}} to compete in a surfing contest in ''[[PS060|Breath of the Dragonair Part 1]]'' that was interrupted by [[Lance]]'s attack on [[Vermilion City]].

In ''[[PS102|Ursaring Major]]'', a herd of Slowpoke in [[Azalea Town]] had their tails cut off by [[Team Rocket]], causing the [[Slowpoke Well]] to stop providing water. {{adv|Gold}} proceeds to tire one out with his {{p|Aipom}}, prompting it to yawn and therefore cause the well to start flowing again.

In ''[[PS119|A Flaaffy Kerfuffle]]'' a Slowpoke appeared where it was one of the Pokémon in {{adv|Professor Oak}}'s fantasy when he explains that trainers should only have six Pokémon with them.

Later a Slowpoke was one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in [[Ilex Forest]] in ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]''.

The current artist, [[Satoshi Yamamoto]], used a Slowpoke in Volume 11 as self-portrait.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
A Slowpoke is seen with {{OBP|Green|Pocket Monsters}} during the curry cooking competition that went on in ''[[PM027|Curry Showdown! Which is the Most Delicious?]]''.

{{OBP|Giovanni|Pocket Monsters}} stole Slowpoke from [[Kurt]] prior to ''[[PM078|Find Slowpoke!!]]'' in order to profit from its tail as it is worth a lot of money. Kurt was able to retrieve the Slowpoke from Giovanni before Giovanni was able to get its tail.

==Trivia==
[[File:Bandai Aerodactyl card.jpg|150px|right|thumb|[[Ken Sugimori]] artwork showing Slowpoke's striped underside.]]
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Slowpoke was originally known as "Slowmo".
* The Japanese and international {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Silver|s}} have different sprites for Slowpoke, with the Japanese versions having a fatter and striped belly similar to that which Slowbro and Slowking sport. It is unknown why this was changed. However, its striped underside is still partially visible in all of its Gold and Crystal sprites. This striped belly does not appear to be a true error, as it has been seen in artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]], though it is from [[Generation I]].
* Like {{p|Mantyke}}, Slowpoke evolves when another Pokémon attaches to it; however, this was only seen in the anime. Proximity-based evolution such as requiring Mantyke and {{p|Remoraid}} to be in the same party were not introduced until [[Generation IV]]. Despite the fact that other Pokémon, such as {{p|Feebas}}, have been given additional evolution methods for evolving into the same Pokémon, Shellder still has no bearing on Slowpoke's evolution.
* Slowpoke is the only Pokémon whose multiple evolutions have different total [[EV yield]]s: {{p|Slowbro}} has an EV yield of 2, while {{p|Slowking}} has an EV yield of 3.
* Slowpoke is the only Pokémon whose National Pokédex number is the same as its weight in pounds when rounded.
** However, {{p|Dodrio}} has this trait when its weight is measured in kilograms.
* Despite numerous Pokédex entries stating its lack of response to a bite on its tail, in [[Pokémon Snap]] it is shown to quickly react to Shellder's bite. This may be due to Shellder's venom stimulating a quicker response, or simply an error or game mechanic to speed the process along.
* The Pokémon Company posted a Slowpoke-themed reggae music video onto their Japanese channel titled ''What's Going on, Yadon?''. The song was later dubbed and posted to the English-language channel under the title of ''[[Slowpoke Song]]''.
* Though the species has appeared repeatedly, no Slowpoke has ever been seen using an attack in the anime.
===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Slowpoke, Slowbro and Slowking}}
Due to its marine nature, shape and association with {{wp|shellfish}}, Slowpoke may be based on various species of {{wp|otter}}. It may also be based on a {{wp|giant salamander}} or {{wp|hippopotamus}}.

====Name origin====
Slowpoke is literally ''slowpoke'', a term for someone who is slow. It can be also a combination of ''slow'' and ''poke'' (an abbreviation of ''Pokémon'').

Yadon may be a combination of 宿借り ''yadokari'' ({{wp|hermit crab}}) and ''donkan'' (thickheaded or stolid), whereas 鈍 ''don'' means slow, dull, or stupid. Alternatively, it may also derive from 宿主 ''yadonushi'' ([parasitic] host), based on its relationship with {{p|Shellder}} in its evolutions.

'''Slowpoke''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヤドン''' ''Yadon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Slowbro}} starting at [[level]] 37 or {{p|Slowking}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}.

==Biology==
Slowpoke is a pink creature that resembles a cross between a salamander and a hippopotamus. Its vacant eyes never seem focused, and it has curled ears and a rounded, tan muzzle. It has four legs, each of which ends in a single white claw. Its long, tapering tail has a white tip. This tail drips a sweet, sappy substance that is attractive to many species of fish. Slowpoke uses it as a lure for fishing, and it will grow back if cut off.

Slowpoke has notoriously dim intellect, and often forgets what it was doing. It takes a long time to respond to outside stimuli. For example, it can take up to five seconds to process pain and can take an entire day to notice when its tail has been bitten. Slowpoke is commonly found at the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|water's edge.}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Slowpoke anime.png|200px|right|thumb|Slowpoke in the anime]]
[[File:Slowpoke Egg.png|thumb|200px|left|A Slowpoke {{pkmn|Egg}} in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Slowpoke's first appearance was a brief one in ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''. {{DL|Ash Ketchum|Pokémon|Ash's Pokémon}} asked it for help, but it didn't respond. It evolved into a Slowbro at the very end of the episode.

Slowpoke's was seen in ''[[EP066|The Evolution Solution]]''. Ash and {{ashfr}} asked for the help of [[Professor Westwood V]] to help figure out why Slowpoke only evolved into Slowbro when a {{p|Shellder}} {{m|clamp}}ed on its tail (a question that was giving {{an|Professor Oak}} a headache). Westwood's Slowpoke evolved when a Shellder that [[Jessie]] caught clamped on to the Dopey Pokémon's tail.

''[[EP142|A Shadow of a Drought]]'' revealed that [[Azalea Town]] considers Slowpoke sacred due to legends claiming that Slowpoke's {{m|yawn}}ing can summon rain.

''[[EP244|Enlighten Up!]]'' introduced practitioners of a religion similar to {{wp|Buddhism}} that see Slowpoke's empty head as a sign of enlightenment and worship by meditating along with Slowpoke and Slowbro.

In ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]'', a group of Slowpoke were trying to reach a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} to evolve into Slowking in order to help find a better habitat for the group. In this episode, a Slowpoke evolved into a {{p|Slowking}} when its head was bitten by a Shellder while it was wearing the King's Rock.

===Minor appearances===
Slowpoke also appeared in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', the banned episode [[EP035]] and ''[[EP062|Clefairy Tales]]''.

A Slowpoke appeared in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.

Multiple Slowpoke were among the Pokémon seen at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]''.

Two Slowpoke were part of an exhibition in ''[[EP122|Flower Power]]''.

A Slowpoke was one of the Pokémon seen at the [[Pokémon Swap Meet]] in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''.

A Slowpoke was one of the Pokémon living in [[Len Town]] in ''[[EP156|The Psychic Sidekicks!]]''.

A {{pkmn|Trainer}} used a Slowpoke in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]'' to aid him in the annual {{p|Seaking}} [[Seaking Catching Day|Catching Competition]].

A Slowpoke appeared in ''[[EP169|Beauty and the Breeder]]'' where it participated in [[Pokémon Beauty Contest|a Pokémon breeding competition]].

A Slowpoke appeared in ''[[EP216|Dueling Heroes]]''.

A Slowpoke appeared in the opening of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''.

A Slowpoke made an appearance in ''[[BW141|Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!]]'' along with its evolution form, {{P|Slowbro}}.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===

{{OBP|Giovanni|Pocket Monsters}} stole Slowpoke from [[Kurt]] prior to ''[[PM078|Find Slowpoke!!]]'' in order to profit from its tail as it is worth a lot of money. Kurt was able to retrieve the Slowpoke from Giovanni before Giovanni was able to get its tail.

==Trivia==
[[File:Bandai Aerodactyl card.jpg|150px|right|thumb|[[Ken Sugimori]] artwork showing Slowpoke's striped underside.]]
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Slowpoke was originally known as "Slowmo".
* The Japanese and international {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Silver|s}} have different sprites for Slowpoke, with the Japanese versions having a fatter and striped belly similar to that which Slowbro and Slowking sport. It is unknown why this was changed. However, its striped underside is still partially visible in all of its Gold and Crystal sprites. This striped belly does not appear to be a true error, as it has been seen in artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]], though it is from [[Generation I]].
* Like {{p|Mantyke}}, Slowpoke evolves when another Pokémon attaches to it; however, this was only seen in the anime. Proximity-based evolution such as requiring Mantyke and {{p|Remoraid}} to be in the same party were not introduced until [[Generation IV]]. Despite the fact that other Pokémon, such as {{p|Feebas}}, have been given additional evolution methods for evolving into the same Pokémon, Shellder still has no bearing on Slowpoke's evolution.
* Slowpoke is the only Pokémon whose multiple evolutions have different total [[EV yield]]s: {{p|Slowbro}} has an EV yield of 2, while {{p|Slowking}} has an EV yield of 3.
* Slowpoke is the only Pokémon whose National Pokédex number is the same as its weight in pounds when rounded.
** However, {{p|Dodrio}} has this trait when its weight is measured in kilograms.
* Despite numerous Pokédex entries stating its lack of response to a bite on its tail, in [[Pokémon Snap]] it is shown to quickly react to Shellder's bite. This may be due to Shellder's venom stimulating a quicker response, or simply an error or game mechanic to speed the process along.
* The Pokémon Company posted a Slowpoke-themed reggae music video onto their Japanese channel titled ''What's Going on, Yadon?''. The song was later dubbed and posted to the English-language channel under the title of ''[[Slowpoke Song]]''.
* Though the species has appeared repeatedly, no Slowpoke has ever been seen using an attack in the anime.
===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Slowpoke, Slowbro and Slowking}}
Due to its marine nature, shape and association with {{wp|shellfish}}, Slowpoke may be based on various species of {{wp|otter}}. It may also be based on a {{wp|giant salamander}} or {{wp|hippopotamus}}.

====Name origin====
Slowpoke is literally ''slowpoke'', a term for someone who is slow. It can be also a combination of ''slow'' and ''poke'' (an abbreviation of ''Pokémon'').

Yadon may be a combination of 宿借り ''yadokari'' ({{wp|hermit crab}}) and ''donkan'' (thickheaded or stolid), whereas 鈍 ''don'' means slow, dull, or stupid. Alternatively, it may also derive from 宿主 ''yadonushi'' ([parasitic] host), based on its relationship with {{p|Shellder}} in its evolutions.

==In other languages==

'''Lapras''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラプラス''' ''Laplace'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Ice}} Pokémon.

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

==Biology==
[[File:Lapras aging.png|thumb|left|250px|The aging process of Lapras, from child to adult]]
Lapras is a large sea creature that resembles a {{wp|plesiosaur}}. It has a spotted, blue hide with a cream underside. Its neck is long, and it has large black eyes. There is a short horn in the middle of its forehead and curled ears placed farther back on its head. Instead of legs, it has four flippers with the foremost pair being larger than the hind. On its back is a heavy, gray shell covered in blunt knobs.

Lapras is a gentle, helpful Pokémon that enjoys ferrying people across bodies of water. However, this docility has made it an easy target for hunters, who have nearly driven it to extinction. An intelligent Pokémon, it is able to understand human speech. It has [[EP113|been known]] to travel the seas in large pods. To keep in touch with other of its kind, it sings enchanting melodies. In [[Holiday Hi-Jynx|the anime]] it was shown that Lapras is able to develop psychic abilities such as telepathy. Lapras is native to {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|the seas}}.

The most notable role of Lapras in [[Pokémon Adventures]] was being one of the Pokémon of [[Pryce]]. In his youth, Pryce lost two of his favorite Lapras, La Pris and La Prus, in an avalanche just as the {{pkmn|Egg}} borne by them hatched. Unable to get over his loss, Pryce swore to save his Lapras and thus began researching into time travel, setting the events of the [[Johto]] saga in motion. Eventually, Pryce was able to capture {{p|Celebi}} and enter time, only to lose Celebi as the [[Poké Ball]] containing it was shattered, causing him to be unable to override time any further. However, the baby Lapras, La Glace, was able to enter the time in which Pryce's Lapras were separated, and the family enjoyed a happy reunion while Pryce was eventually lost in time.{{endspoilers}}

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}} and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky|Explorers of Sky]]: Lapras is the Pokémon that ferries Pokémon to the [[Hidden Land]]. When {{mdc|Wigglytuff|2}} explored the [[Brine Cave]] and found the strange marking on the wall there, Lapras asked Wigglytuff not to investigate it further to keep the Hidden Land a secret. When the player and partner had to get to the Hidden Land to save the world, Lapras responded to the presence of the [[Relic Fragment]] that matched the pattern on the wall, shooting a beam into the sea, summoning Lapras. Lapras ferries the player, the partner, and Grovyle to the Hidden Land, along the way telling the story of what happened when Wigglytuff and {{mdc|Chatot|2}} came to Brine Cave. Later, after the player defeats Dialga at Temporal Tower, Lapras will be waiting at the beach and can ferry the player and the partner back to the Hidden Land again. There is no limit to how many times Lapras can do this.

[[File:131Lapras RG.png|thumb|130px|Lapras shown with teeth in its Generation I artwork.]]
[[File:Photo Spot Azure Bay.png|thumb|200px|Riding on Lapras in [[Azure Bay]]]]
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Lapras was originally going to be called "Ness", a reference to the {{wp|Loch Ness Monster}}.
* Due to their similar appearance, {{p|Shellos}} was initially thought to be a [[baby Pokémon|pre-evolution]] of Lapras, but this was eventually proven to be {{p|Gastrodon|false}}.
* Excluding [[Mega Evolution]]s and [[Legendary Pokémon]], Lapras's base stat total of 535 is the highest of all unevolved Pokémon. Before {{p|Munchlax}} was introduced in [[Generation IV]], however, Lapras came second to {{p|Snorlax}}'s 540.
* Lapras was depicted with teeth in its [[Generation I]] official artwork and in [[Pokémon Adventures]].
* Lapras has the highest base HP of all Ice types.
* Lapras is one of two Pokémon to use telepathy to speak to humans in a regular episode of the anime. The other is {{p|Ralts}}.
* Lapras is one of [[Veronica Taylor]]'s favorite Pokémon.
* In [[Generation VI]], Lapras has a unique 3D model when {{m|surf}}ing, whereas all other surfing Pokémon are depicted as dark blobs. This may be an homage to the [[Generation II]] surfing sprites ( [[File:GSC Surf M.png]] [[File:C Surf F.png]] ), which greatly resemble Lapras, or Lapras's role as a means of transport.
** A Shiny Lapras uses the same 3D model as a regular one while surfing.
** In [[Photography#Pokémon X and Y|photos]] taken at [[Azure Bay]], the player is seen riding a Lapras even if no Lapras is in the party.
* Lapras is the heaviest unevolved, non-[[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] Pokémon.
*Lapras can learn the most [[one-hit knockout move]]s of any Pokémon (excluding {{p|Smeargle}}), being able to learn {{m|Sheer Cold}}, {{m|Fissure}}, and {{m|Horn Drill}}.

===Origin===
Lapras is based on the fabled {{wp|Loch Ness Monster}} in {{wp|Scotland}}. The creature and this Pokémon resemble an extinct order of marine reptiles known as {{wp|Plesiosauria}}. Lapras's shell and horn may be inspired by {{wp|placodont}}s. Its intelligence, singing, and rarity can be comparable to some {{wp|cetacea}}ns, especially {{wp|blue whale}}s and {{wp|humpback whale}}s. Its long neck and robust body may also be inspired by the mast heads and hulls of {{wp|Viking}} ships.

====Name origin====
Lapras is a corruption of Laplace.

Laplace may be a reference to {{wp|Pierre-Simon Laplace}}, a mathematician who wrote several books on the mathematical properties of the sea and tides. Alternatively, Laplace may be derived from ''la place'' (French for ''seat''), referring to how passengers sit on its back like a seat to be ferried across bodies of water. It may also be derived from {{wp|lapis lazuli}}, a bright blue gem.

'''Geodude''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イシツブテ''' ''Isitsubute'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Graveler}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Golem}} when [[trade]]d.

==Biology==
Geodude is a gray boulder Pokémon. It has bulging, rocky eyebrows and trapezoidal, brown eyes. Its arms are muscular with five-fingered hands. Geodude uses its arms to climb steadily up steep mountain paths. Geodude is proud of its sturdy body and will bash against others of its kind in a contest of sorts to prove whose body is harder. The longer it lives, the more chipped and worn its body becomes.

Geodude can be most often found on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain trails}}, fields, under rocks, or in caves. It will sit still in these areas, which is why it is often mistaken for rocks. It is often stepped on, and will sometimes swing its arms in anger when this occurs. When Geodude sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. Once buried, it will not awaken even if someone steps on it. In the morning, Geodude rolls downhill in search of food.

==Trivia==
* Geodude, along with its evolutions, have been in all Japan-centric [[List of Pokémon that appear in every regional Pokédex|regional Pokédexes]].
* Geodude has been used by all of the Gym Leaders specializing in the {{t|Rock}} type before [[Generation VI]]. However, [[Brock]] does not use Geodude in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] as he did in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]], though he does use its evolved form, {{p|Graveler}}, and in the [[Fighting Dojo]], it evolves into a {{p|Golem}}.

===Origin===
Geodude is based upon a living rock or boulder.

====Name origin====
Geodude may be a combination of the prefix ''[[Wiktionary:geo-|geo-]]'', from γῆ gē, Greek for earth, and ''[[Wiktionary:dude|dude]]'', a slang word for a male. It may also be from ''{{wp|geode}}'', a usually hollow volcanic rock with crystal inside, and ''dude''.

Isitsubute is a combination of 石 ''ishi'' (stone) and 礫 ''tsubute'' (throwing stones).

'''Geodude''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イシツブテ''' ''Isitsubute'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Graveler}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Golem}} when [[trade]]d.

==Biology==
Geodude is a gray boulder Pokémon. It has bulging, rocky eyebrows and trapezoidal, brown eyes. Its arms are muscular with five-fingered hands. Geodude uses its arms to climb steadily up steep mountain paths. Geodude is proud of its sturdy body and will bash against others of its kind in a contest of sorts to prove whose body is harder. The longer it lives, the more chipped and worn its body becomes.

Geodude can be most often found on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain trails}}, fields, under rocks, or in caves. It will sit still in these areas, which is why it is often mistaken for rocks. It is often stepped on, and will sometimes swing its arms in anger when this occurs. When Geodude sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. Once buried, it will not awaken even if someone steps on it. In the morning, Geodude rolls downhill in search of food.

==Trivia==
* Geodude, along with its evolutions, have been in all Japan-centric [[List of Pokémon that appear in every regional Pokédex|regional Pokédexes]].
* Geodude has been used by all of the Gym Leaders specializing in the {{t|Rock}} type before [[Generation VI]]. However, [[Brock]] does not use Geodude in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] as he did in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]], though he does use its evolved form, {{p|Graveler}}, and in the [[Fighting Dojo]], it evolves into a {{p|Golem}}.

===Origin===
Geodude is based upon a living rock or boulder.

====Name origin====
Geodude may be a combination of the prefix ''[[Wiktionary:geo-|geo-]]'', from γῆ gē, Greek for earth, and ''[[Wiktionary:dude|dude]]'', a slang word for a male. It may also be from ''{{wp|geode}}'', a usually hollow volcanic rock with crystal inside, and ''dude''.

Isitsubute is a combination of 石 ''ishi'' (stone) and 礫 ''tsubute'' (throwing stones).

'''Geodude''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イシツブテ''' ''Isitsubute'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Graveler}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Golem}} when [[trade]]d.

==Biology==
Geodude is a gray boulder Pokémon. It has bulging, rocky eyebrows and trapezoidal, brown eyes. Its arms are muscular with five-fingered hands. Geodude uses its arms to climb steadily up steep mountain paths. Geodude is proud of its sturdy body and will bash against others of its kind in a contest of sorts to prove whose body is harder. The longer it lives, the more chipped and worn its body becomes.

Geodude can be most often found on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain trails}}, fields, under rocks, or in caves. It will sit still in these areas, which is why it is often mistaken for rocks. It is often stepped on, and will sometimes swing its arms in anger when this occurs. When Geodude sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. Once buried, it will not awaken even if someone steps on it. In the morning, Geodude rolls downhill in search of food.

==Trivia==
* Geodude, along with its evolutions, have been in all Japan-centric [[List of Pokémon that appear in every regional Pokédex|regional Pokédexes]].
* Geodude has been used by all of the Gym Leaders specializing in the {{t|Rock}} type before [[Generation VI]]. However, [[Brock]] does not use Geodude in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] as he did in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]], though he does use its evolved form, {{p|Graveler}}, and in the [[Fighting Dojo]], it evolves into a {{p|Golem}}.

===Origin===
Geodude is based upon a living rock or boulder.

====Name origin====
Geodude may be a combination of the prefix ''[[Wiktionary:geo-|geo-]]'', from γῆ gē, Greek for earth, and ''[[Wiktionary:dude|dude]]'', a slang word for a male. It may also be from ''{{wp|geode}}'', a usually hollow volcanic rock with crystal inside, and ''dude''.

Isitsubute is a combination of 石 ''ishi'' (stone) and 礫 ''tsubute'' (throwing stones).

A '''Picnicker''' (Japanese: '''ピクニックガール''' ''Picnic Girl'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation I]] games as '''Jr. Trainers''' ♀. They are generally depicted as younger girls in uniforms.

They raise a variety of Pokémon.

In the past, they have also been known as '''Jr. Trainers♀'''. In [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions]], they are called '''ガールスカウト''' ''Girl Scout'', although supposedly this had to be changed for legal reasons. Their male counterparts appear to be {{tc|Camper}}s.

A '''Picnicker''' (Japanese: '''ピクニックガール''' ''Picnic Girl'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation I]] games as '''
Jr. Trainers ♀'''. They are generally depicted as younger girls in uniforms.

They raise a variety of Pokémon.

In the past, they have also been known as '''Jr. Trainers♀'''. In [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions]], they are called '''ガールスカウト''' ''Girl Scout'', although supposedly this had to be changed for legal reasons. Their male counterparts appear to be {{tc|Camper}}s.

CoffeeMilkshakes: /* Will Picknickers come back in next generation games? */

==Will Picknickers come back in next generation games?==
Even in Gen5 and Gen6 main games ( not the remakes ) doesn't have Picknickers, will they reappear again? --- [[User:CoffeeMilkskakes]]

== Picnickers in the anime? ==

In ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', the girls seen in Erika's Gym are mostly wearing what look like girl scout uniforms, similar to what the Jr. Trainer♀s wore in the Gen 1 games. Could this be considered an appearance of Picnickers in the anime?--[[User:Bardock|Bar]][[User_Talk:Bardock|dock]] 15:19, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

In ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', the girls seen in Erika's Gym are mostly wearing what look like girl scout uniforms, similar to what the Jr. Trainer♀s wore in the Gen 1 games. Could this be considered an appearance of Picnickers in the anime?--[[User:Bardock|Bar]][[User_Talk:Bardock|dock]] 15:19, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

'''Poliwag''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニョロモ ''' ''Nyoromo'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Poliwhirl}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Poliwrath}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Water Stone}} or into {{p|Politoed}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}.

==Biology==
Poliwag resembles a blue, spherical tadpole. It has large eyes and pink lips. There is a black and white swirl on its abdomen, which are actually its internal organs showing through its semitransparent skin. The swirl looks clearer after it eats, and the skin is very elastic so that it will not break if the Pokémon is bitten. The direction of the belly spiral differs by area, with the equator being thought to have an effect on this. It has newly developed legs that are poor at walking, and no arms. Its long, mostly transparent tail makes it a powerful swimmer. Because of its ineptitude on land, Poliwag is more likely to be found swimming in small {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|freshwater ponds and lakes}}. [[EP110|In the anime]], Poliwag feeds on [[salveyo weed]], which can only be found on clear lake bottoms.

==Trivia==
* Poliwag is the favorite Pokémon of [[Satoshi Tajiri]].
* In its {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed|s}} Pokédex entry, it is stated Poliwag has black skin. The {{v2|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} Pokédex entry for Poliwhirl states that Poliwhirl's skin is covered in oily fluid - if the same applies to Poliwag, it might be a case similar to the common {{wp|bilberry}}: the berry itself is black but covered in a wax-like coating that makes it look blue.
* In ''[[The Official Pokémon Handbook]]'', published by [[Scholastic]], the back cover says "Did you know that the swirls on Poliwhirl's stomach changes direction when it [[Evolution|evolves]] into Poliwag?" However, Poliwhirl evolves ''from'', not into, Poliwag.
* [[Generation V]] changed Poliwag's base Experience yield from 77 to 60, making it the only Pokémon whose base Experience yield is the same as its National Dex number.
* Poliwag shares its species name with {{p|Poliwhirl}}, {{p|Poliwrath}}, and {{p|Tympole}}. They are all known as the Tadpole Pokémon.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Poliwag and {{p|Ditto}} had the same cry.
* A [[a:File:Prototype Poliwag.png|prototype design]] of Poliwag was shown on Game Freak's official Japanese website.

===Origin===
Poliwag is based on a {{wp|tadpole}}. The spiral pattern on its belly is supposed to represent how the intestines of tadpoles are sometimes seen through their transparent skin.<ref>[http://edition.cnn.com/ASIANOW/time/magazine/99/1122/pokemon6.fullinterview2.html TIME - The Ultimate Game Freak]</ref>

====Name origin====
Poliwag is a corruption of ''{{wp|polliwog}}'' (outdated term for tadpole). ''Wag'' may refer to its long tail, although it is worth noting that ''polliwog'' literally means "head-wiggle."

Nyoromo may be a combination of ニョロニョロ ''nyoronyoro'' (the sound of slithering) and 子供 ''kodomo'' (child).

'''Poliwag''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニョロモ ''' ''Nyoromo'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Poliwhirl}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Poliwrath}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Water Stone}} or into {{p|Politoed}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}.

==Biology==
Poliwag resembles a blue, spherical tadpole. It has large eyes and pink lips. There is a black and white swirl on its abdomen, which are actually its internal organs showing through its semitransparent skin. The swirl looks clearer after it eats, and the skin is very elastic so that it will not break if the Pokémon is bitten. The direction of the belly spiral differs by area, with the equator being thought to have an effect on this. It has newly developed legs that are poor at walking, and no arms. Its long, mostly transparent tail makes it a powerful swimmer. Because of its ineptitude on land, Poliwag is more likely to be found swimming in small {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|freshwater ponds and lakes}}. [[EP110|In the anime]], Poliwag feeds on [[salveyo weed]], which can only be found on clear lake bottoms.

==Trivia==
* Poliwag is the favorite Pokémon of [[Satoshi Tajiri]].
* In its {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed|s}} Pokédex entry, it is stated Poliwag has black skin. The {{v2|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} Pokédex entry for Poliwhirl states that Poliwhirl's skin is covered in oily fluid - if the same applies to Poliwag, it might be a case similar to the common {{wp|bilberry}}: the berry itself is black but covered in a wax-like coating that makes it look blue.
* In ''[[The Official Pokémon Handbook]]'', published by [[Scholastic]], the back cover says "Did you know that the swirls on Poliwhirl's stomach changes direction when it [[Evolution|evolves]] into Poliwag?" However, Poliwhirl evolves ''from'', not into, Poliwag.
* [[Generation V]] changed Poliwag's base Experience yield from 77 to 60, making it the only Pokémon whose base Experience yield is the same as its National Dex number.
* Poliwag shares its species name with {{p|Poliwhirl}}, {{p|Poliwrath}}, and {{p|Tympole}}. They are all known as the Tadpole Pokémon.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Poliwag and {{p|Ditto}} had the same cry.
* A [[a:File:Prototype Poliwag.png|prototype design]] of Poliwag was shown on Game Freak's official Japanese website.

===Origin===
Poliwag is based on a {{wp|tadpole}}. The spiral pattern on its belly is supposed to represent how the intestines of tadpoles are sometimes seen through their transparent skin.<ref>[http://edition.cnn.com/ASIANOW/time/magazine/99/1122/pokemon6.fullinterview2.html TIME - The Ultimate Game Freak]</ref>

====Name origin====
Poliwag is a corruption of ''{{wp|polliwog}}'' (outdated term for tadpole). ''Wag'' may refer to its long tail, although it is worth noting that ''polliwog'' literally means "head-wiggle."

Nyoromo may be a combination of ニョロニョロ ''nyoronyoro'' (the sound of slithering) and 子供 ''kodomo'' (child).

'''Poliwag''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニョロモ ''' ''Nyoromo'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Poliwhirl}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Poliwrath}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Water Stone}} or into {{p|Politoed}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}.

==Biology==
Poliwag resembles a blue, spherical tadpole. It has large eyes and pink lips. There is a black and white swirl on its abdomen, which are actually its internal organs showing through its semitransparent skin. The swirl looks clearer after it eats, and the skin is very elastic so that it will not break if the Pokémon is bitten. The direction of the belly spiral differs by area, with the equator being thought to have an effect on this. It has newly developed legs that are poor at walking, and no arms. Its long, mostly transparent tail makes it a powerful swimmer. Because of its ineptitude on land, Poliwag is more likely to be found swimming in small {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|freshwater ponds and lakes}}. [[EP110|In the anime]], Poliwag feeds on [[salveyo weed]], which can only be found on clear lake bottoms.

==Trivia==
* Poliwag is the favorite Pokémon of [[Satoshi Tajiri]].
* In its {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed|s}} Pokédex entry, it is stated Poliwag has black skin. The {{v2|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} Pokédex entry for Poliwhirl states that Poliwhirl's skin is covered in oily fluid - if the same applies to Poliwag, it might be a case similar to the common {{wp|bilberry}}: the berry itself is black but covered in a wax-like coating that makes it look blue.
* In ''[[The Official Pokémon Handbook]]'', published by [[Scholastic]], the back cover says "Did you know that the swirls on Poliwhirl's stomach changes direction when it [[Evolution|evolves]] into Poliwag?" However, Poliwhirl evolves ''from'', not into, Poliwag.
* [[Generation V]] changed Poliwag's base Experience yield from 77 to 60, making it the only Pokémon whose base Experience yield is the same as its National Dex number.
* Poliwag shares its species name with {{p|Poliwhirl}}, {{p|Poliwrath}}, and {{p|Tympole}}. They are all known as the Tadpole Pokémon.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Poliwag and {{p|Ditto}} had the same cry.
* A [[a:File:Prototype Poliwag.png|prototype design]] of Poliwag was shown on Game Freak's official Japanese website.

===Origin===
Poliwag is based on a {{wp|tadpole}}. The spiral pattern on its belly is supposed to represent how the intestines of tadpoles are sometimes seen through their transparent skin.<ref>[http://edition.cnn.com/ASIANOW/time/magazine/99/1122/pokemon6.fullinterview2.html TIME - The Ultimate Game Freak]</ref>

====Name origin====
Poliwag is a corruption of ''{{wp|polliwog}}'' (outdated term for tadpole). ''Wag'' may refer to its long tail, although it is worth noting that ''polliwog'' literally means "head-wiggle."

Nyoromo may be a combination of ニョロニョロ ''nyoronyoro'' (the sound of slithering) and 子供 ''kodomo'' (child).

'''Poliwag''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニョロモ ''' ''Nyoromo'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Poliwhirl}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Poliwrath}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Water Stone}} or into {{p|Politoed}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}.

==Biology==
Poliwag resembles a blue, spherical tadpole. It has large eyes and pink lips. There is a black and white swirl on its abdomen, which are actually its internal organs showing through its semitransparent skin. The swirl looks clearer after it eats, and the skin is very elastic so that it will not break if the Pokémon is bitten. The direction of the belly spiral differs by area, with the equator being thought to have an effect on this. It has newly developed legs that are poor at walking, and no arms. Its long, mostly transparent tail makes it a powerful swimmer. Because of its ineptitude on land, Poliwag is more likely to be found swimming in small {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|freshwater ponds and lakes}}. [[EP110|In the anime]], Poliwag feeds on [[salveyo weed]], which can only be found on clear lake bottoms.

==Trivia==
* Poliwag is the favorite Pokémon of [[Satoshi Tajiri]].
* In its {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed|s}} Pokédex entry, it is stated Poliwag has black skin. The {{v2|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} Pokédex entry for Poliwhirl states that Poliwhirl's skin is covered in oily fluid - if the same applies to Poliwag, it might be a case similar to the common {{wp|bilberry}}: the berry itself is black but covered in a wax-like coating that makes it look blue.
* In ''[[The Official Pokémon Handbook]]'', published by [[Scholastic]], the back cover says "Did you know that the swirls on Poliwhirl's stomach changes direction when it [[Evolution|evolves]] into Poliwag?" However, Poliwhirl evolves ''from'', not into, Poliwag.
* [[Generation V]] changed Poliwag's base Experience yield from 77 to 60, making it the only Pokémon whose base Experience yield is the same as its National Dex number.
* Poliwag shares its species name with {{p|Poliwhirl}}, {{p|Poliwrath}}, and {{p|Tympole}}. They are all known as the Tadpole Pokémon.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Poliwag and {{p|Ditto}} had the same cry.
* A [[a:File:Prototype Poliwag.png|prototype design]] of Poliwag was shown on Game Freak's official Japanese website.

===Origin===
Poliwag is based on a {{wp|tadpole}}. The spiral pattern on its belly is supposed to represent how the intestines of tadpoles are sometimes seen through their transparent skin.<ref>[http://edition.cnn.com/ASIANOW/time/magazine/99/1122/pokemon6.fullinterview2.html TIME - The Ultimate Game Freak]</ref>

====Name origin====
Poliwag is a corruption of ''{{wp|polliwog}}'' (outdated term for tadpole). ''Wag'' may refer to its long tail, although it is worth noting that ''polliwog'' literally means "head-wiggle."

Nyoromo may be a combination of ニョロニョロ ''nyoronyoro'' (the sound of slithering) and 子供 ''kodomo'' (child).

'''Omastar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オムスター''' ''Omstar'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Water}} [[Fossil]] Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Omanyte}} starting at [[level]] 40, after it is revived from a [[Dome and Helix Fossils|Helix Fossil]].

==Biology==
Omastar is a sky-blue {{wp|Ammonoidea}} Pokémon, with several tentacles and a pale yellow, helix spiralled shell with spikes on its back. Its shell constantly grows, getting heavier over time and thus limiting its mobility. It is the weight of the shell that is most often cited as the cause for Omastar's extinction. Several sharp spikes line the shell's midsection, spanning from its forefront to just a little towards its back. The shell's hem has two circular indents where Omastar's eyes come out. Its eyes have yellow sclera, with vertically-slit pupils. It has an oval mouth with a four-way jawed, fang-like beak. Once caught, it never lets go of prey, immediately biting down on its victim with immense power.

Before its own shell led to its extinction, Omastar swam the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|seas}} in search of prey. Even the hard shells of prehistoric {{p|Shellder}} stood no match to Omastar's deadly powerful bite, and were quickly made a meal of by having their insides sucked out.

==In the anime==
[[File:Omastar anime.png|thumb|220px|left|Omastar in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Omastar first appeared in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', alongside all the other [[Generation I]] Fossil Pokémon. They were sleeping under [[Grampa Canyon]] until a dynamite blast woke them up. The {{2t|Water|Rock}}-type Fossil Pokémon chased [[Ash Ketchum]] and {{TRT}} until {{p|Aerodactyl}} showed up and scared them off.

Omastar also appeared in ''[[EP163|Fossil Fools]]'', alongside its pre-evolved form {{p|Omanyte}}. These Pokémon were discovered to be living in the [[Ruins of Alph]], but they moved into a museum.

An Omastar appeared in ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
An Omastar appeared in {{TRT}}'s fantasy in ''[[EP174|Imitation Confrontation]]''.

[[Dr. Yung]] uses a Mirage Omastar in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

An Omastar appeared in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' living in the [[Tree of Beginning]]. Also, one appeared in the opening of the movie.

==Trivia==
* In early English-language promotional material for [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue]], Omastar was originally known as "Kargo". This is derived from "escargot" (French for ''snail'').
* Omastar has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} base stat of any non-{{pkmn2|legendary}} {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.
* Omastar is the only Fossil Pokémon whose extinction has been explained: its shell was too heavy for it to move, so it died out from starvation.
** This may also be a reference to the giant {{wp|orthocone}}, ancestor to the modern octopus. The orthocone resembled an octopus with a long, pointed shell that was slow and cumbersome.

===Origin===
It seems to be based on a type of {{wp|Ammonoidea|ammonite}}.

====Name origin====
Omastar's name is a combination of a phonetic anagram of ''ammonite'' and ''star'' (based on its body shape).

Omstar is a combination of オウムガイ ''ōmugai'' ({{wp|nautilus}}) and ''star''.

'''Omastar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オムスター''' ''Omstar'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Water}} [[Fossil]] Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Omanyte}} starting at [[level]] 40, which is revived from a [[Dome and Helix Fossils|Helix Fossil]].

==Biology==
Omastar is a sky-blue {{wp|Ammonoidea}} Pokémon, with several tentacles and a pale yellow, helix spiraled shell on its back. Its shell constantly grows, getting heavier over time and thus limiting its mobility. It is the weight of the shell that is most often cited as the cause for Omastar's extinction. Several sharp spikes line the shell's midsection, spanning from its forefront to just a little towards its back. The shell's hem has two circular indents where Omastar's eyes come out. Its eyes have yellow sclera, with vertically-slit pupils. It has an oval mouth with a four-way jawed, fang-like beak. Once caught, it never lets go of prey, immediately biting down on its victim with immense power.

Before its own shell led to its extinction, Omastar swam the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|seas}} in search of prey. Even the hard shells of prehistoric {{p|Shellder}} stood no match to Omastar's deadly powerful bite, and were quickly made a meal of by having their insides sucked out.

==In the anime==
[[File:Omastar anime.png|thumb|220px|left|Omastar in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Omastar first appeared in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', alongside all the other [[Generation I]] Fossil Pokémon. They were sleeping under [[Grampa Canyon]] until a dynamite blast woke them up. The {{2t|Water|Rock}}-type Fossil Pokémon chased [[Ash Ketchum]] and {{TRT}} until {{p|Aerodactyl}} showed up and scared them off.

Omastar also appeared in ''[[EP163|Fossil Fools]]'', alongside its pre-evolved form {{p|Omanyte}}. These Pokémon were discovered to be living in the [[Ruins of Alph]], but they moved into a museum.

An Omastar appeared in ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
An Omastar appeared in {{TRT}}'s fantasy in ''[[EP174|Imitation Confrontation]]''.

[[Dr. Yung]] uses a Mirage Omastar in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

An Omastar appeared in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' living in the [[Tree of Beginning]]. Also, one appeared in the opening of the movie.

==Trivia==
* In early English-language promotional material for [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue]], Omastar was originally known as "Kargo". This is derived from "escargot" (French for ''snail'').
* Omastar has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} base stat of any non-{{pkmn2|legendary}} {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.
* Omastar is the only Fossil Pokémon whose extinction has been explained: its shell was too heavy for it to move, so it died out from starvation.
** This may also be a reference to the giant {{wp|orthocone}}, ancestor to the modern octopus. The orthocone resembled an octopus with a long, pointed shell that was slow and cumbersome.

===Origin===
It seems to be based on a type of {{wp|Ammonoidea|ammonite}}.

====Name origin====
Omastar's name is a combination of a phonetic anagram of ''ammonite'' and ''star'' (based on its body shape).

Omstar is a combination of オウムガイ ''ōmugai'' ({{wp|nautilus}}) and ''star''.
